Chapter 375: Underground Passage
"This is the Thorn Flower Tavern? Why doesn't it look like there's anyone, what's going on lately?"
Watson sat in the back seat of the taxi, and saw the tavern door closed through the back window, and asked the driver in the front row for some information. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I don't know, but I heard that this tavern probably didn't open until late in the evening, after all, it was a nightclub, how could there be a nightclub that opened in the morning, and you want to go to another tavern? I know that there is a good tavern nearby, which is open as usual during the day, and although there is no activity in the morning, it is still okay to drink. ”
Taxi drivers often pass by and know a little about the Thorn Flower Tavern.
"That's right...... Then leave me here, and I'll go over myself. ”
Holding a small notebook in his hand, on which were some of the main points that Watson had copied from Sophie's documents in the Holy See for convenience, including a description of how to enter the dark creature stronghold.
According to the information obtained by the Holy See from the mouth of a captured high-level blood clan, the secret passages located in these taverns are generally guarded by dark creatures, and unregistered dark creatures need to pay some coins to enter, and the passage should be open all day if nothing else, but now that the door of the store is closed, Watson suddenly realized that he seems to have to find a way to enter first.
The main entrance must not be good, it is really a bit eye-catching, in fact, from the information, the business of this tavern does not know where one of the passages of the dark children is located, so think about it, those dark creatures must have their own way to enter, Watson rashly knocked on the door and asked to enter will be suspicious.
"How did they get in without attracting attention...... Could it be that there is some secret door next to here?"
Watson stood at the main entrance for a moment, then walked straight into the narrow alleyway next to it, and if there was any special entrance here, Watson was sure to be in this secluded alley.
I touched the wall back and forth twice, unfolded my dark energy perception and searched around, and finally found a strange place in the left corner of the alleyway.
The stone bricks here have a faint energy response, and if it weren't for Watson sticking to the wall all the way, it would be really difficult to detect.
"So...... Where's the mechanism? This rock? Or this ......?"
Looking left and right to make sure that no passers-by were passing, Watson touched the wall with both hands and tapped lightly between several bricks and stones, but he did not find the mechanism that he imagined could be pressed, and these bricks and stones seemed to be piled up normally.
"It's not a manual trigger, so why don't you try it with dark energy...... Ha, sure enough. ”
A faint trace of dark energy was sent by Watson into the masonry of the wall, and in an instant the whole wall began to tremble silently, and the masonry turned outward and reorganized, and after a while, it retreated to both sides, and the last hole that could only allow a creature the size of a person to pass through appeared in front of his eyes.
"Ahem...... Hello...... Hello. ”
After coughing a few times in a row, Watson continued to adjust his vocalizations, and finally deliberately made his voice muddy and hoarse before stepping into the stone cave.
As soon as he passed through the cave, the wall behind him began to return to its original state silently, and the light dimmed, and was immediately filled by a wall lamp in the corridor in front of him.
"Who is it and where are you going?"
"The darlings of darkness can go wherever they want!"
There was a sound in the empty corridor, and this was also in Watson's preparation, saying what he had already thought of, the question in this corridor is only this one answer, because the person who asked is not a living person at all, but a magic circle that has been engraved here for a long time, as long as a creature passes by, it will ask this sentence, once the answer is wrong, it will wake up the caretaker here at the first time, this means is naturally to prevent any drunk professionals from accidentally discovering this side.
Pulling out three silver coins from his pocket, which was the toll, Watson walked all the way to a staircase, and reached out to place the three silver coins in a sunken stone wall next to it, which is also the rule, only if the money is given here, the guards below will open the device leading to the core stronghold.
Walking down the stairs, the intermittent sound of machine blinking came from ahead, and Watson walked forward in silence, and in a short time he came to the front of a mechanical elevator, and there were no dark creatures here, probably because they didn't come out to move during the day.
"Is this the gateway to the underworld...... Hmph, these monsters really dare to be made. ”
After the elevator descended some distance from the corridor on this side, Watson finally saw the vehicle to the core stronghold of the dark creatures----- a silver-white metal train was parked on the track below the elevator, and these dark creatures had built a train platform under the tavern!
There are not many passengers on the empty platform, Watson glanced at it roughly, there are only about seven or eight of them, most of them are wearing very ordinary clothes, I don't know, I think it is an ordinary underground train waiting platform, but Watson Judging from the negative energy aura emanating from these people, these are not those low-level dark creatures that can often be encountered outside, and the worst ones probably have the appearance of high-level apprentices.
The dark creatures didn't talk to each other, and Watson only heard a couple of men and women a little away from him talking about something, but the content was a little vague.
"It also saves me the effort of figuring out on my own, just follow them. ”
Watson took a few steps forward and stood next to a man, a little behind, to make it easier to observe his movements.
After about five or six minutes, Watson noticed that the top of the train on their side was lit with a red light, the door opened, and the man next to him got into the car, presumably a signal that he was about to start, and Watson followed suit.
The interior decoration of the train is similar to that of the normal subway outside, and there is even a salesman on the train pushing a small cart back and forth to sell, but the things sold on it make Watson have no idea of buying it.
Specially away from the man to find a place to do, here, in the future, Watson can't just talk casually, more wrong, less wrong He still understands, and even listen to the news, who knows if the one who is talking to will see his identity as an outsider because of the conversation.
