Chapter 21: The Treasure Emerges
The air was as silent as death.
There was a hint of embarrassment.
"Ahem."
Arka coughed, and walked casually to the wall where there had just been a noise.
It was from this wall that the dust shook down.
I raised my hand and touched the wall, brushing it on it, and sure enough, I could feel a trace of unevenness.
There was a gap that slipped all the way down it.
It is a stone gate, about two meters wide.
"There's a stone door here, and the one I turned before should have been the switch, but maybe it's been too long since no one has maintained it, and the mechanism is broken."
Jason had already figured it out through Arka's previous moves.
He walked over and stood beside Arka and began to tap lightly against the wall.
A solid dull sound echoed in his ears.
Alka also listened to the echo of his tapping.
Only Siggett looked ignorant next to him, so he had to watch quietly, his eyes full of desire to learn.
Suddenly, his gestures changed, the way he struck was slightly different, and the reverberation changed.
Knocked along the stone gate and around the stone gate.
He looked up again and patted the dust off his ears.
"This is supposed to be a push-in stone door, which is a bit difficult to do."
"Why do you say that?" After all, Arka is a halfway monk treasure hunter.
I don't know a lot of things at all, and this one in front of me is professional.
Jason put his hands on the stone door and pushed it forward, but the stone door did not move.
"Because of this kind of stone door, you have to push the whole boulder to find the entrance on both sides or on one side, and this secret space should have entrances on both sides."
"If it's a rotating type, we only need to push one side of the stone door hard to rotate and bring us in, which takes a lot less effort."
Arka nodded clearly, no wonder the difficulty would be [Hercules].
That is, it is necessary to push the whole heavy stone door so that it is possible to show a passage for them to enter.
"Let's push it together, maybe we can."
Siggett walked up and said.
"Okay, let's try it."
With that, the three of them leaned against the wall and pressed their shoulders and elbows against the stone door in front of them.
"I'll count 321 and work hard."
"3, 2, 1, push!"
With an order from Alka.
The three of them began to push towards the stone gate with all their might.
As they pushed, several people began to make nasal sounds, and their faces were a little red.
However, their legs began to slide backwards, and the stone door in front of them only shook slightly, not pushing inside at all.
"No, it's not enough."
Jason relaxed, leaned on his knees, and gasped.
Arka was also out of breath, looking at the stone gate in front of him.
Underestimate the difficulty of [Hercules].
Of course, it would be a shame to give up like this.
If you go to someone else, you may be annoyed, there will be unnecessary trouble, and you may have to give out an extra portion.
Naturally, the crowd was unwilling.
One more person is one less.
Arka began to look around to see what he could put to good use.
Look at the floor beneath your feet.
Reached out and touched his chin.
"Let's knock out a few pits in this floor, so that we can make it more powerful, didn't this stone door just shake a little? The explanation is a little bit close. ”
"Okay, let's do it," Siggert nodded when he heard Arka's opinion.
Jason had no choice but to say, "Okay then." ”
After all, I can't think of a better way to do it now.
He then pulled out a small hammer the length of a forearm and a shovel from his bag.
The crowd began to work hard.
After a while, three pits appeared in the ground.
"Try again."
As he spoke, Arka put his legs in the pit and pressed his shoulders against the wall.
The same goes for others.
"3, 2, 1, push!"
This time there were pits to borrow strength, and the three of them used their strength to eat.
Finally, the slate in front of him was visibly loosened.
"Drink!"
Sensing this situation, the three of them had already begun to roar and push hard forward.
The stone door was slowly pushed forward, revealing the side openings that could be passed.
"Phew, hoo, it's finally done."
The three of them couldn't wait to walk through the side door to the inside.
It's pitch black.
Sigurt was about to go outside to get the torch he had just put down.
Jason took a palm-sized lantern from his backpack and turned it around to light a fire.
I turned the corner and came to a small room, only about three meters wide and six or seven meters long.
A large table was filled with all sorts of unintelligible tools that had long since been rusted and completely unusable.
There are also some hand-drawn drawings, but they have long been dirty and oily, and they cannot be removed.
Alka had already seen the treasure he was looking for in this somewhat dim environment.
Because the outline has been indicated above.
Seeing this, Arka suddenly said loudly: "According to our agreement just now, the three of them will be divided equally, and the contribution will determine who will take the loot first." ”
"In a moment, if you meet multiple loot, choose the order by me, Jason, and Siggett."
Saying that, Arka looked at Jason and said, "If there is any objection, let's talk about it now, so as not to have a dispute for a while." ”
Jason nodded happily: "Of course, just follow the order you said, I'm fine." ”
Arka then turned his head to look at Sigget.
"Of course I'm fine."
"Okay, then that's it."
The trio then worked together to find loot in the space.
Among them was the same weapon that Arka had seen.
In the end, all the items were placed on the table.
All of them are rock guns.
4 pistols, 2 rocking guns that look like short sprays.
Both looked at Arka.
Arka directly chose the short spray that just had the outline.
None of these guns are the same in appearance, but they all differ in style.
It looks a little delicate and luxurious.
It's a weapon, and it looks a bit like an ornament.
So you can't see anything from the outside, and it's more logical for Arka to choose a significantly different short spray.
Because it's more expensive.
After watching Arka finish choosing, Jason picked up one directly from the pistol.
Seeing this, Siggett unceremoniously took the remaining squirt away.
At the end, Jason is armed with two pistols.
And Arka and Sigurt each have a short spray and a pistol.
"Then this cooperation, that's it."
"Let's go first."
Hearing Alka's words, Jason shrugged: "Of course, you are free. ”
Then, without hesitation, the two walked out the way they came.
Taking advantage of the fact that the sky had not completely darkened, he walked out of the manor.
When he walked out of the manor, he saw Jason waving goodbye to the two of them at the door of the building.
"It's getting late, let's speed up and go back first."
The two hid their guns in their clothes and walked across the dirt road.
Back in the port city.
