Chapter 128: The Secret Warehouse (Fifth Update)

After a sumptuous dinner, a few alcoholic beverages of different flavors were served.

After walking along the harsh desert for almost half a month, they quickly took a simple shower and fell asleep on the soft bed.

Since it is in a relatively safe city, there is no need to arrange a vigil tonight.

There were too many slaves to live in the guest rooms, so they could only find an empty place to spread out blankets and sleep in the corridors, halls, and stables of the inn.

Anyway, Mannon's nights are not cold, even if you sleep outside in the open air, you don't have to worry too much about getting cold.

For them, it's never the room or the bed that affects the quality of sleep.

Instead, you don't have to worry about a safe environment where monsters and bandits will pop up out of nowhere.

Zuo Si didn't disturb these people who desperately needed a good night's sleep to relieve their mental and physical fatigue, and left through the back door of the inn with the soldiers and Alena, and took advantage of the cover of night to a dilapidated warehouse in the city near the docks.

Looking at this building that was at least a few decades old, he subconsciously compared the address on the note in his hand, and immediately said to the two people behind him: "It should be here." Let's go inside, let's go inside and see what interesting stuff Mook has stored in this secret warehouse. ”

"I'll take the lead."

The heavily armored and shield-wielding soldier was the first to step forward, smash the rusty lock with the hilt of his sword, push open the door and walk straight inside.

Since it was already completely dark, nothing could be seen inside the warehouse without any light.

Zuo Si didn't say a word, and immediately performed a [Light Technique].

Through this moving light source, the three of them quickly saw their surroundings clearly.

Contrary to the expected mess, all the boxes and goods are stacked neatly and orderly against the wall.

Except that the floor and goods are covered with a thick layer of dust because no one has been patronizing them for a long time, it seems that there is no difference from an ordinary warehouse.

Just as Alena was about to open a box to see what it contained, a huge black shadow suddenly swooped down from overhead.

"Be careful!"

The soldier with his strong reflexes was the first to sense the danger, and with his shield in his hand, he knocked the oval-shaped creature two or three meters in size a short distance, successfully protecting his relatively fragile fellow caster.

Through the [Light Technique], you can vaguely see that it is a huge arthropod with eight legs and black hair all over its body.

It is nearly a meter tall and has a massive body that is definitely over a hundred kilograms, and it looks like an enlarged version of a highly venomous spider.

But unlike normal spiders, this monster has not eight eyes, but only three.

And the huge mouthparts are constantly dripping with a deadly toxin glowing green.

Fortunately, the soldiers rescued in time.

Otherwise, with the current state of the sorceress without any spell protection, even if she is bitten, she will be seriously injured even if she does not die.

"Damn! How could there be such a thing in a warehouse at the docks? Alena asked, grim.

"Three-eyed demon spider! An arcane spellcaster's door that uses a mixture of flesh and blood of a variety of creatures to create a magical monster.

Be careful, its toxins are very deadly, and even accidentally touching a spider's web can have a paralyzing and depressive effect on the nerves of the person in contact.

However, this magical creature is very afraid of fire, so it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with. ”

Zuo Si quickly found the corresponding information from the [Thinking Library] and said it bluntly.

"Afraid of flames?"

Hearing this, Alena suddenly appeared with a cruel smile.

Next Second......

The sound of chanting spells echoed through the warehouse.

Immediately after, a ray of scorching flame shot out from her fingertips, igniting the three-eyed demon spider wrestling with the soldier directly from the side.

Moment!

The ferocious monster began to retreat like crazy, trying to escape the range of the flames.

But it's a pity that with Alena's character, how could it be spared.

In a matter of moments, the Three-Eyed Demon Spider was transformed into a charred corpse by the endless stream of flame magic.

After the battle, Zuo Si glanced at the woven spider web on the roof, as well as the barely recognizable human corpses wrapped in cocoons in the corner, and immediately sneered and said, "This guy Muke, before he died, he was still thinking about yin me. If nothing else, this three-eyed demon spider was deliberately raised here to guard the warehouse. ”

"What do you mean...... Are these people deliberately thrown in to feed the spiders? Alena raised an eyebrow in disgust.

"That's right! It is not difficult to tell from the clothes that these poor victims were basically either slaves, poor people living in Mannon, or thieves who accidentally broke in. ”

Zuo Si carefully used the dagger he carried with him to cut open the cocoon wrapped in spider silk, revealing the dry corpses inside.

Since the body fluids have been sucked dry, it is impossible to distinguish the specific age, gender and identity of the deceased.

"Every time I turned that guy into a ghost or a necromancy, it was really cheap for him."

After confirming the number of corpses, the soldier couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

Because of the height of the corpses in the cocoon, many of them are less than one meter.

This means that they are either halflings or children under the age of ten.

The degree of madness has even far exceeded the bottom line of the vast majority of people in the "evil camp".

"Well, there's no need to get angry with a dead man. Now, let's take a look at what good stuff he has stored in this warehouse. ”

As he spoke, Zuo Si cast a one-ring magic [Detection Secret Door].

Soon a small hidden compartment near the wall was discovered.

After making sure there were no traps around, he quickly took out a sealed wooden box about half a meter long and thirty centimeters wide from inside.

When I opened it, it turned out to be a magical compound longbow and five Mithril arrows engraved with intricate runes.

After a simple identification and identification, Zuo Si quickly knew the properties of these things.

Among them, the name of the compound longbow is [Bow of Strong Arms].

The bowstring and bowarm are crafted with an astonishing amount of magic, requiring at least nineteen strength stats to pull them apart.

Under such an astonishing pull, the [Bow of Strong Arms] shot arrows with a power that was enough to instantly pierce the heads or hearts of most creatures.

Equivalent to +3 enchanted weapons.

Not only is the range longer, but the damage is also higher and the penetration is stronger.

As for the arrows that were placed together with the bow, they were Faeron's famous [Demon Breaking Arrows], which could eliminate and destroy the magic effects around the target's body.

Generally speaking, this kind of arrow loss is a high-level alchemy item specially made for hunting those powerful mages and warlocks.

The market price of one piece is at least a few thousand gold coins.

In addition, [Demon Breaking Arrow] is still an out-and-out consumable, don't expect it to be recycled.

Once fired, the arrow loses its attachment and has an effect that destroys the stability of any magical effects it touches.

However, this thing has been in a state of "pricelessness" all year round.

Many people are willing to pay double the price and may not be able to get one.

The only pity is that Zuo Si doesn't have a full-time archer summoned creature at hand, which is worthy of this powerful magical compound longbow and five [Demon Breaking Arrows].

With the strength attribute of the soldier, although it can be used reluctantly, but if it is a little farther away, don't expect any accuracy.

If Yelnya had launched a surprise attack on Zuo Si at that time, and a long-range archer had used the [Demon Breaking Arrow] to cooperate with it, Zuo Si felt that he would be more than lucky.

Unfortunately, Mook may have been in a hurry when he started, fearing that by the time the [Bow of Strong Arms] and [Demon Breaker] were transported from Manon to Port Carlin, Harlett had already scraped together enough ransom to get out of trouble.

In the end, he failed to take the risk and lost his life.
