Chapter Seventy-Three: Inside the Tower

After taking the key, Dearlando locked the box, and then passed by everyone, ran back to the platform and jumped directly, Ryses leaned over quickly and picked him up and flew in the direction of Jiangzhong Tower.

The whole crew saw him coming and going, and they didn't know what was happening, so they had to wait until after landing.

Ryses flew very fast, and in a blink of an eye he had reached the tower again, and he just heard Shakolin asking for advice on how to keep his blonde hair shiny and beautiful, which made him remember that Shakolin in his humanoid form seemed to be blonde, but he was always soaked in seawater, and his color was dry and white, just like grass.

He didn't care about small talk, jumped directly to the top of the tower, and handed the key to Cantu from above: "Look, isn't this it?"

When Cantu saw Diarlando, he suddenly had a feeling of meeting a savior, he hadn't seen the previous French Shark Knight, and none of them was as strange as this character. He took a closer look at the tooth, then handed the necklace back to Dearlando: "It's best for you to open it, since the necklace is in your hand, then you may be the one it is waiting for." ”

Hearing this, Diarrando jumped from the top of the tower, grabbed the edge with one hand, took the shark tooth with the other, and reached for the keyhole that was trapped inside the rock. He pushed his teeth straight to the bottom, heard a click from inside, and then felt a pain in his fingers, as if something like a needle had pierced his fingertips.

"There's something in there that me...... Isn't it the right way?" he asked Kantu worriedly, and Cantu said, "Probably there is blood verification or something, most magic mechanisms will use blood as a condition for activation. ”

"Didn't you say that this tower existed before our family came to the continent, do you think my blood would be useful?" asked Dearlandor. While leaning your ear to the wall and listening to the sound inside the rocks.

What is certain is that the needle that pierced himself was wrapped in dragon gold, because he was almost inferior to a knife and gun, and he was actually poked in the finger by that thing. In this way, perhaps the designers of the mechanism foresaw that the person who would open it would be a person with a super-strong skin, such as a symbiote of a dragon?

Cantu listened carefully with his ear to it, then he made a silent gesture, then stretched out a hand and began to calculate something. Almost every three seconds, he would bend a finger, and after counting about forty times, he nodded and said, "That's enough." ”

"What's enough?" said Deirlando, who didn't dare to pull his finger back because he was stopped by the cut. At this moment, he could feel the blood flowing from the wound on his fingertips. Although the total amount is not much, he always has a little dislike for these mechanisms that require blood drawing.

As he was talking, the top of the tower, which was tightly closed just now, suddenly rose up in layers. Because the dragon script on the top of the tower is similar to several boxes set together. So right now they're rising one by one. High in the middle. The surrounding is low, and finally the tower of Pingding has a spire.

With this change, the rocks on the four walls began to bulge outwards and shrink inwards in part. Cantu grabbed Dearlando's hand and pulled it out. And replied: "Enough blood." Your blood has accumulated enough weight to activate the trap on the other side of the scale. ”

Soon, a stone slab, more than two feet wide and three feet long, stretched out from under their feet, just enough for a person to stand. However, Diarlando and Cantu are both relatively tall, and it is still a little cramped to stand on such a small foothold, so you have to pull me, and I will pull you.

Sha Kolin leaned over and stopped at their feet to contribute his fins: "Your Highness, Mr. Elf, you can stand here first...... but before he finished speaking, the people on the stone and the dragon flying above their heads instantly turned into light and sand and disappeared.

"Your Highness...... Mr. Elf?" Shaklin swam around, even under the water, but couldn't see the sound of the three of them, and finally he simply took on human form and tried to stand on the stone slab as well. But the sea breeze blew through his body until his clothes were dry, and nothing changed.

Noticing that the citizens on both sides of the strait were nervously and enthusiastically watching the excitement here, he had no choice but to continue to maintain the posture of a guardian and watch here. At this time, the people who came down from the Red Butterfly and the people on the Silver Butterfly had already rendezvous, and Ruidan had just asked Shakorin to arrange the retreat, and at this moment everything was going on in an orderly manner, and he simply sent a boat to pick everyone up and go upstream on the Reverse Dopang River, and approach the tower that emerged from the river from the water.

When the ship anchored next to the tower, Ruidan's figure appeared on the side of the ship, and he leaned over and asked, "How is the situation, where is my eldest brother?"

"The dragon, His Highness Dearrando, and the blonde Mr. Elf seem to have entered the tower, and my magic sense with the dragon tells me that they are down there, and it seems that there are a lot of troublesome things in there, and it will take a while to get out. Shakolin simply jumped onto the boat, gave Ruidan a brief salute and introduced him.

As he had guessed, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Dearlandor and his party after they were teleported into the tower. They felt that their eyes were bright and dark, and their feet were already in the water. There was no lighting around here, but Ryses immediately let the light around him shine, so he could see his surroundings clearly.

It was a fifty-foot square space, and the young dragon filled almost the entire space, and in order to move better, it retracted its body to the length of its fingers, and then landed on Deirlando's shoulder.

Roses and the two of them looked around, the rocks around them were wet, and all but the thin stone beam where the two of them were standing was soft silt from the bottom of the river. Water droplets kept falling from above, and when you looked up, you could see a gradually shrinking square patio above.

Cantu glanced at it and said, "This is where the towers were originally placed, and now they have been lifted up entirely, so there is this space to enter." ”

"Shall we go up then?" Diarrando's dark vision was better than that of the elves, and high above his head, where the light of the young dragon could not be found, he saw some lines of what appeared to be steps, wrapping around the four walls of the patio,

Pointing to the stone beam at his feet, Cantu said, "Go to the side, I think there should be a lifting platform to take us up." ”

So the two of them walked through the muddy water that did not reach their feet, and when they reached the side, they saw the familiar elven ornamental carvings, and the tangled vines and flowers outlined the appearance of a door.

Dearlando was about to touch the door when he was slapped on the back of his hand by Cantu: "Don't move around! Mr. Serber likes to make people clean up the most, even if this place is opened for you, but he will definitely install all kinds of things that trap people." ”

"Oh...... He's so idle, but what about the other one, do you have any special hobbies?" Diarlandor retracted his hand and took two steps back, giving up space to Cantu.

"Mr. Najkas is much better, he likes to give people leeway, even a death trap will leave a way to live, so if this is built by the two of them together, we will be injured at most, and we will not be able to die. You can rest assured...... Got it. ”

Cantu studied the circle of vines and found a rose on the set of branches on the left, with the bud line of the bow arcing. He stepped back a little, tapped the bud with his fingers, and then turned around and ran. Pushing Diarlando back a dozen feet.

However, there was calm all around, and nothing happened.

"Hey...... Are you thinking too much? Or is this mechanism too long ineffective? After all, it's been ...... Ahhhhhh......h

Because they were caught off guard, both of them fell to the ground, and the stone beam was so narrow that both of them almost rolled off it. During the high-speed ascent, Dearlando could see that something resembling a firework had been ignited under the rock he had caught, and at this moment it was spraying a huge pillar of fire, pushing the five- or six-foot-long stone beam that he and Cantu were holding into the air.

"You go up to the stone beam, I am not afraid of fire. As soon as Diarlando stretched out his hand, he dragged the elf on the opposite side to the stone surface, because the elf had a torn nightgown, which was sprayed by flames, and it was estimated that he would soon burn. Cantu smiled: "Ha, you are really kind, don't worry, these flames just look terrible, and they don't burn people." What we should worry about is whether we can find the right interface in time when the lifting table reaches the highest point. ”

"What do you mean?" Diarlando followed Cantu's gaze to the ceiling, and found that the higher he went, the less space there became, and the walls around him, in addition to the steps he had just seen carved into the wall, there were many rectangular openings, which looked like doors.

"One or more of those doors can be pushed open, and the others are sealed or trapped. The elf looked around worriedly, the speed at which the stone beam was rising more and more slowly, and it seemed that the magic that propelled the fireworks had been burned out, and it was about to fall.

"That!" Unexpectedly, Reeth immediately pointed to a door in the upper left without hesitation, ordering the two to jump over.

Without pausing for a moment, Diarrando grabbed Cantu and jumped towards the door, just as the stone beam had just crossed the door, and they jumped in an arc and smashed directly into the black wooden door.

When they slammed the door, it slid open, and the two men fell to the ground. The flames that had illuminated the surrounding fireworks were extinguished at the same time, and darkness plunged the surroundings into darkness again.

"How does it know it's this door?" Cantu asked Dearlando curiously, as he got up.

Dearlando shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't know, then held the glowing young dragon in his hand as a lamp to illuminate the surroundings. The young dragon flicked his tail and said proudly, "The world we see is different from yours, and from here on I can show the way." Your teacher has designed a lot of mechanisms, but he forgot one thing, in the eyes of our dragons, their magic will be hidden. (To be continued......)
