Chapter 41: The Golden Pit

"Wake up?" Ryll was so frightened that his hairs stood on end, "Are we close to the dragons?"

"Hmm...... ......"I don't know exactly where they are," said old Trysers, "but I've heard that although they like to sleep, they have a keen sense of hearing, and wake up at the slightest strange noise." ”

"W-this......" Riel unconsciously lowered his voice a lot when he heard this, and even began to walk cautiously.

Alan thought it was an ordinary cave, but after walking for a while, he realized that it was more of a secret tunnel than a cave.

It was probably less than a man tall, and even their group of underage children had to bend over when they walked in it. The surrounding walls are not smooth but flat, with obvious signs of artificial excavation. The whole dark passage zigzagged forward, and the direction was changeable, and after a while, Allen and the others were dizzy, and they couldn't distinguish between southeast and northwest at all.

But this is secondary, and the most uncomfortable thing for them is the temperature inside, which is unbearable, like being in a furnace. And since they could only move forward in this position all the time, it didn't take long for several of them to be miserable. Time also seemed to pass very slowly, only a few dozen minutes away, and Alan felt like he had walked all afternoon.

They gritted their teeth and persisted in moving forward, and after turning a corner, they finally saw a faint light coming through the front.

"Oh my God, it's finally at the exit!" said Rare, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

The space here is a little wider than before, at least it allows him to straighten up a little and stretch his waist.

"If I don't go out again, I'm going to be roasted!" he said, walking briskly in the direction of the cave.

However, a cloud of doubts suddenly rose in Allen's heart, although this dark path was tortuous, it didn't seem to have lowered their height much......

Looking at this slightly strange light, he couldn't help but wonder even more...... It's a bit yellowish and mixed with other colors, and it doesn't look like daylight......

Although the sun has not been seen in the entire Hepu Continent since the appearance of the Demon Eye, the light shining through the clouds should not be this color......

"Seems like something is reflecting light?" said Allen, staring at the light with some fascination.

By this time, Rare had already walked out of the hole, but instead of being as excited as Alan had imagined, he stood still and froze......

"What's wrong?" Alan quickly asked after noticing the abnormality.

But Krel didn't squeak, but just looked at his feet with a long neck, as if petrified...... It wasn't until Alan got closer that he realized that he was trembling.

Alan hurriedly stepped out to figure out the situation, but the moment he saw the vision, he himself was stunned......

Golden, with only a sparkling golden yellow left in his eyes, and even his brain was occupied by the word......

They were in the middle of a jutting mountain, and at their feet was a huge valley, or rather, a deep pit, in which countless treasures were piled up...... Golden sand, gold bars, gold nuggets, gold coins, and all kinds of works of art made of gold are piled up, and there are also rare treasures inlaid with various colors of gemstones such as red, green, blue, and purple...... And this dazzling light is emitted by the reflection of the daylight by these things......

He had never seen such a shocking sight in his life...... The light seemed to have a wonderful attraction that made them reluctant to blink from the first sight of it, so that it took them a long time to recover a little.

"It's ...... Treasure ......" Riel swallowed, incoherent with excitement, "It's true...... The rumors of the treasure are true!"

However, Alan didn't say much, just took a deep breath: "Hmm...... It seems to be true. ”

Because while being shocked, a question also popped up in his heart...... Old Trisus said that he would take them down the mountain to Sunlight City, but looking at the environment, this seemed to be the hinterland of the Evil Dragon Mountains...... If they came here by the wrong path, it would be a bit too coincidental to find the legendary treasure that countless people died for it so easily, that it is a little unbelievable, and even ......

Looking at the edge of the pit, there were several dark shadows, and since they were still quite far from the bottom, and since part of their bodies was submerged in the sea of gold, Alan couldn't see what it was......

"It's a dragon!" Riel exclaimed in a low voice, first to see clearly, "they actually slept with the treasure!"

"Sure enough!" Allen was shocked, a hypothesis arose in his mind, and he couldn't help but suddenly turn back to look for old Trissus, "Is it ......?"

But old Trisus did not stand behind them, but was retreating in the direction of the dark passage little by little, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth......

It's a smile that only comes when some ulterior purpose is achieved......

"My map!" Alan exclaimed as he saw a roll of parchment clutched tightly in his hand.

Obviously, it was not idle when their attention was attracted by these treasures just now, and even quietly stole their map......

"This is my map, my treasure......" Old Trisus had already retreated into the dark passage, muttering as he stroked the map, "this is what belongs to me, it's all my ......"

"What?" Riel looked confused, unsure of what was going on.

At that moment, old Trisus suddenly pulled a wand out of his pocket and quickly spat out a string of incantations.

"Not good!" Frey cried out as he heard what it was saying.

But it's too late...... There was only a slight "boom", and the platform-like bulge they were on was neatly broken from the roots......

"It's calculated!" Alan shouted, and his body began to fall uncontrollably.

"Hold on to me!" yelled Riel, trying to use Starlight. But after he had finished chanting the incantation, he remembered that Arthur, who was now closest to him, was hundreds of kilometers away......

Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, Alan had no choice but to shout in his heart: "Karin!"

A tingling pain came from his wrist, and then Alan felt a hand on his shoulder, and his body slowly regained its balance.

Since the few of them stood relatively close together and grabbed each other the moment they fell, with Karin's help, everyone slowly fell to the ground.

"How dare you plot against us!" Rare shouted as soon as he landed, "I want it to look good when I turn around!"

However, Karin poured cold water on him: "I don't know who is plotting against you, and I don't care what color you want to give it...... But all this is premised if you have a chance to get out of here alive. ”

Riel was stunned for a moment, and then realized that although they were safe, the rock that had just fallen seemed to have made a lot of noise......

"Heh, what a bunch of rude guys. Karin added, "Not only did you trespass into someone's house, but you also woke up the owner of the house......
