Wang: "According to this diary, the key point should be the main entrance in the center of the second basement floor, through which you can lead to the third floor below. Find out if there are any other, more detailed research records. ”

"I found one here." Elizabeth held up the sketchbook in her hand, "This one draws the image of the gate from all angles, and also records the carvings and words on the door in the form of rubbing. ”

Wang immediately took it, quickly flipped through it, and said as he flipped it: "The rubbed text here is undoubtedly the text of the Cyclops Empire, although the text of the Cyclops Empire looks like a hieroglyph, it is actually a kind of pinyin script, and it only makes sense to put it together to form a word."

"None of the Order's researchers know the One-Eyed Empire's script, why?"

Flint: "No, no, no, I don't think the One-Eyed Empire script is the norm, you're the one who's not normal." ”

Wang: "Really? Our Mage Tower......"

"Your mage tower isn't normal either, okay?" Flint interrupted the king, "How can a group of traveling mages be normal with a mage tower? I've lived hundreds of years in my life, and I've never met a Brigade Mage! You are half of the apprentice of the traveling mage! ”

Wang: "I'm actually the apprentice of three Brigade Mages, but I obviously can't be counted as a Brigade Mage, but at least it should be infinitely close to 1, counting 0.9." ”

Flint: "Does it matter?" Put away your inexplicable obsession with numbers! ”

At this time, Xiaobai said: "I found the instant noodles and broken noodles that Da Ming wanted...... Uh, how do you say that? ”

Wang: "Sectional view." ”

"Yes, yes, that's it." Xiaobai ran to the king with a rolled-up picture and held it high: "Give!" I'm amazing, right? ”

Wang touched Xiaobai's head: "It's too powerful, you are the best." ”

After speaking, he put down the album and diary in his hand, picked up the section and unfolded it.

"Inverted triangle." He muttered, "And this thin hole over here should be a sampling well opened by the Order's researchers to study the soil around the ruins." This dotted line should be the dividing line of the soil...... The dwarf who just wrote a diary should be the main researcher here, and his research method is very similar to that of the Gnome Explorers Guild. ”

The dwarf ran over and took the king by the arm, tilting the profile of the king's unfolding.

This way Flint can see what's on the map.

Xiaobai: "If you're a girl, this action just now can be called cute." ”

Marika teased, "I think that's cute, too." ”

Flint said angrily, "Shut up, Black Elf! ”

Nini: "I think ...... too It's a pity to have a beard. ”

"Shut up, White Elf!" Probably not wanting to be teased by the two tall, long-legged elves, Flint forced the subject to the cross-sectional drawing, "This earthy dividing line fits the underground structure of the ruins very well, and it is an inverted triangle. ”

Wang: "Yes, and ...... If you look at the markings here, only the surface of the ruins is soil, and the one-meter-deep ground is granite. It's no wonder that the dwarf researchers think this is the floating city of the Cyclops Empire. Damn, now I think it's a floating city, too. ”

Elizabeth: "But...... If this is the Cyclops' floating city, the statue should be the god of the Cyclops, right? But I'm pretty sure the statues have two eyes. ”

Wang: "Cyclops believe that the fewer the eyes, the more noble they are, and they despise the creatures with two eyes, enslave them as slaves, and from time to time use magic to extract their life force and prolong their lives.

"And the gods who are greater than themselves are considered by the cyclops to have no eyes. The Cyclops priest would blind himself in the eyes to get as close as possible to the deity.

"So a possible speculation was born, that these statues, originally without eyes, were later added by the species that occupied this ruin. The Riverland was the economic center of the Second Age Human Empire, probably by the humans who occupied it. ”

At this time, Nini said, "By the way, I have found a list of objects unearthed here, and there are sketches of objects on it, you can take a look." ”

Wang put down the profile, took the thick book in his apprentice's hand, and opened it.

"Oh, here's an analysis of the excavated items by the Order's Ruins Research Department: 'Pottery, the craftsmanship is quite inferior, it should be the creation of an early human civilization'. This confirms what I just suspected. ”

Elizabeth tried to conclude: "This was originally the floating city of the Cyclops Empire, but the First Cyclops Empire fell, and the Second Age humans occupied it and rebuilt the Cyclops building...... But no, I learned in class that humans are very dependent on water transportation, so most of the big cities are next to rivers.

"There's no river here."

The king put down the list of unearthed objects, picked up the floor plan of the ruins, looked at it, and said, "Indeed, there are no buildings on the surface of the ruins such as bridges that would be found in waterside cities. Could it be that in the Second Age it was a paradise for explorers? But the underground labyrinth is only two floors, although the area is very large......

"Could it be that there were a lot of dangerous monsters inhabiting the ground at that time?"

Flint: "In the Second Age, the adventurers killed all the monsters in the underground and looted all the magic items, so when the Order came to use this place as a stronghold, they didn't find anything valuable. That's a reasonable assumption, isn't it? ”

Wang: "That's reasonable. The information is almost over, and we go to the door to see what the words left on the door are. ”

**

The "central gate", which is repeatedly mentioned in the Order's research materials, is located on the second floor of the ruins, and the structure diagram shows that this gate and the square space behind the door are the center of the entire second floor.

At the same time, there is also such an inaccessible square space in the center of the first floor of the ruins.

Further up is the most conspicuous statue of the god on the surface of the ruins.

Now the Salvation Squad has come to this gate.

The magic light sources on both sides of the gate were brighter than those elsewhere in the ruins, but this had no effect on the king, as there was a glowing rod of dragon heads floating beside him.

Wang: "I'll take a look......"

He looked at the shortest Cyclops text in the center of the lintel of the gate: "This text is written - elevator?" ”

Elizabeth: "Elevator! (surprised)"

Flint: "Elevator? (confused)"

Nini: "Electricity? (confused)"

Xiaobai: "Kick! (Blind Gil shouts)"

Wang: "Don't make trouble! Let me move on to the other text. ”

He came to the left side of the gate: "Load six people, please use the dimensional bag to carry heavy objects." ”

Flint: "Sounds like instructions...... Or the kind of instructions that gnomes like to write on the surface after making strange objects. Karis Newman! ”

The dwarves usually chant Karis Newman's name to express their emotions, but here it is clear that he is only shouting this name because Karis Newman is the patron of the gnomes, the god of machines worshipped by the gnome craftsmen.

Yes, Flint, the dwarf, has been blaspheming the main god of the gnomes.

As for why he did it, it was probably that Kailin liked it.

Wang: "I'll look at the other side." ”

He walked to the other side: "When the elevator is closed in an emergency, it can be opened with the energy core as a key. ”

Then he fell silent.

The rest of the team fell silent.

Elizabeth tried to break the silence: "I remember...... The ...... in our hands Is it the cyclops energy core? ”

The king didn't answer, and took out the core staff from the dimensional pouch.

As he drew his staff, the others either turned their heads or closed their eyes.

The moment the staff's bright light appeared, the earthquake trembled.

A deep voice said, "Woo woo la~"

Wang: "It's Cyclops language, which means that the state of emergency is lifted and the functional areas are reactivated. ”

Flint: "Where did that sound come from?" It feels like it's coming from everywhere. ”

Without waiting for the king to answer, the same voice said again, "Woo woo ”

Wang Yi said: "Damage to the functional area was detected, and maintenance machinery was dispatched. Maintenance machinery cannot be dispatched, and military machinery is activated to perform maintenance tasks. ”

As soon as he finished translating, the stone walls on either side of the gate retracted to the side, revealing the stone statues behind them. The statue has distinctly one-eyed eyes and holds a greatsword in its hand.

Flint looked at the stone statues, one on the left and one on the right: "Military ...... Isn't that a little bad? ”

Suddenly, the source of the magic light in the ruins switched to red.

Flint: "Caris Newman! I'm sure it's not good this time! ”

Then the deep voice said, "Woohoo woo ”

Wang: "'Found that the slave has a power core, it is presumed that the slave rebelled, and began to put down the rebellion' Shorty, you crow's mouth is right! ”

The stone statue's one-eyed suddenly glowed! There is a "buzz" sound when it glows, and then the one-eyed moves and slides left and right along the preset plane track!

The next moment, the two stone statues moved, and as they moved, powder continued to crumble from their bodies.

Flint: "First strike!" ”

He pulled out the multi-headed flail he had obtained from Monrovia and smashed it into the knees of the stone statue!

Among the five flail heads, the one with a strong green acid glow smashed right on the stone statue's knees, and immediately gushed out strong acid out of thin air.

Although the knees of the stone statue were not shattered by this blow, the strong acid flowed through the cracks that were smashed out, creating a large amount of smoke.

Two of the other four heads of the flail smashed to the ground, erupting with flames and lightning respectively.

The remaining two heads smashed on the other leg of the statue, one erupted toxin, useless, and the other directly made the hit part start to freeze!

The most effective thing is this icing, the stone statue was about to take a step, and the icing directly caused it to fall forward-

Dwarf: "Kaliss Newman! ”

The stone statue smashed on him.

However, the full-body armor he created himself had its own support function, and as a result, the stone statue was like smashing on a stone pier, not only did it not cause harm to the dwarf, but instead broke the leg that had been corroded by strong acid.

On the other side, the brute rushed to another stone statue, and the giant axe in his hand went straight to the head of the stone statue, and he did not use the side of the axe to open the blade, but used the back of the axe, so that the axe turned into a war hammer.

Obviously, the barbarian judged in an instant that blunt objects were most effective against these stone statues.

However, the barbarian's axe is not even a magic weapon, and it cannot produce an immediate effect like the dwarven five-headed flail, and this axe, with a hammer, only cracks the neck of the stone statue.

Xiaobai: "Replace me!" ”

As she spoke, she turned into a giant bear, and went down with a bear's paw, just in time to form a torque with the hammer that the brute had not yet withdrawn, and smashed the one-eyed head of the stone statue with a bang.

Elizabeth: "Huh? That's it? ”

Flint: "No, no! I can still move this one, but my foot is broken! ”

As he spoke, he picked up the flail—but he ignored the fact that he was now half covered with a stone statue, and that the flail was a weapon that could easily be blocked in the process of wielding.

As a result, two of the flail heads were blocked and scraped onto Flint himself.

Flint screamed in pain.

But the remaining three flails still accurately hit the stone statue that was still trying to stand up on the ground.

The magic weapon played a devastating role, and with a snap, the upper body of the stone statue was smashed in half.

Elizabeth: "Uh, do you still need me to mend the knife here?" ”

The dwarf replied, "Treat minor injuries!" ”

With the activation of the healing technique, the dwarf's wound healed at once, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, it's not as difficult as I imagined." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a "ding" sound in the air.

Then the light source above that central door changed from red to green.

As the king retreated away from the stone gate, he shouted, "My right eyelid is jumping!" It jumped! ”

At this time, the door opened.

Behind the door are six red one-eyed.

Wang: "Huh? A little little, huh? ”

Then he slapped his thigh: "Grass, this elevator carries six people!" ”
