Chapter 35: Traps, Dragonclaws, and Stone Walls
Coffins, ghosts, traps, and treasures are things that are usually found in tombs, and naturally there is no shortage of these things in the ancient tombs of Hanfos. The orc girl walked cautiously all the way, and finally landed on the road. How would she know that these ghouls turned into by the ancient Nords still retain the words of the troubadours from generation to generation, and humans learn from the dragons to be taught the language~ Dragon Roar.
The girl who took the blue pill had regained her previous appearance, but there was no longer that carelessness and lightness between words and actions, and instead there was a kind of solemnity.
"Sure enough, it's an elixir. Lu Xihua secretly thought in his heart that this elixir transformed by Qing Gong absorbing the soul power in the ghoul brain was full of life vitality, not heaven and earth vitality, and after the girl took it, it directly had an effect in her body, without any skill conversion. It's like it's the most primitive life energy that can be directly absorbed by the human body to generate substances necessary for the human body, rather than the general vitality of heaven and earth, which needs to be refined and transformed, and what meets your own needs is extracted, which is indeed the best elixir for healing.
After learning from Lu Xihua that the ghoul was using a dragon's roar, the orc girl resolutely picked up the longbow and arrows that the ghoul had dropped on the ground. Destroying the enemy from a distance and nipping danger in the bud is the girl's consciousness. After all, he is a genius in martial arts, and after holding the longbow used by the ghoul in his hand and firing it twenty or thirty times, there is no problem with the approximate accuracy.
Lu Xihua nodded, there is only one life, and the girl is finally serious, which is worthy of her move to cross thousands of miles of forest alone.
Lu Xihua picked up the arrow, originally wanting to attach the thunder energy in his body to the arrow in order to enhance the attack power of the arrow. But the current Lei Jin is not mana, but the internal strength in his body, the old bow and arrow were touched by Lei Jin, and they immediately turned into powder, and there was no reservation at all.
After trying a few times, Lu Xihua shook his head and gave up, in his opinion, if he wanted to make a so-called enchanted weapon, he had to wait until he was promoted to build a foundation and converted the internal strength in his body into mana.
The two continued to move forward, and after the orc girl straightened out the equipment on her body, she began to explore the path in front of her with a longbow in hand, walking cautiously and no longer recklessly. If you see a standing or lying corpse from a distance, whether it is right or wrong, shoot an arrow at it to see if it can alarm the ghoul.
If the corpse is a ghoul, it will immediately move to eliminate the invading visitors. At this time, the girl became extremely agile, no longer facing the ghouls, but using the monkey form to circle around the ghouls, breaking the joints of the ghouls' body and not fighting them face to face, so that even if the ghouls cast the dragon's roar again, the girl would have time to react and dodge.
Sure enough, he was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. The girl's technique was also effective, and the next few battles with the ghouls ended quickly, and many of these sluggish corpses didn't even have a chance to pull out their weapons, and as soon as they sat up from the tomb, their necks were broken.
Similarly, these ghouls died, and none of them had a concrete light flying out through the top and escaping into the vast unknown void, and the green gong behind Lu Xihua still did not react, and the blue elixir was never generated with it.
"It seems that it really has something to do with the dragon's roar, could it be that the practice of the dragon's roar is the cultivation of mana?" Lu Xihua secretly guessed in his heart.
No matter how careful the girl is, she is still caught by the mechanism in the ancient tomb.
An almost inaudible sound sounded, An suddenly felt a tightness in his back, and his whole body was involuntarily pulled away in the air, just about to ask, a strong wind swept in front of him, and a wooden door covered with sharp steel thorns instantly popped out, crossing the position where he was standing before, and then hid into the stone wall with a clicking sound, and a drop of cold sweat couldn't help but fall from his hair.
Organ, the organ that kills people! I'm afraid that I've turned into a corpse at the moment!
Lu Xihua patted the frightened girl's shoulder and pointed to a spot on the ground. The girl calmed down, and carefully examined the ground by the light of the fire in her hand.
Sure enough, among the intricate patterned stone slabs on the ground, there was a pattern that was a little different from the surrounding place. The girl kept a calm face, picked up the stone, and threw the stone with the pattern. Sure enough, the wooden door reappeared, slicing through the place with spikes. After this encounter, the girl became more cautious.
Wooden door spikes, oil traps, axe passages, skateboard rockfalls... Sure enough, the mechanisms in the ancient tomb were varied, but they were cracked one by one under the joint efforts of Lu Xihua and Maiden An. The treasure in the skin of the girl's waist is also becoming more and more abundant.
Overcoming traps, chain passages, and ghoul traps, the two of them were now standing in front of a stone wall.
The stone wall is very high, six meters in shape, and there are huge ring-shaped circles carved on it, ring after ring, and the circle is carved with the patterns of countless beasts and plants, and in the middle is a small hole with three holes, I don't know what to do.
"Could it be that claw?" Ann pulled out the dark golden dragon claw and took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a while, he carefully aimed the three claws on the dragon's claws at the three holes in the stone wall and put them in. Sure enough, the claws on the dragon's claws and the holes on the stone wall could perfectly correspond, and Ann pulled the dragon's claws casually, and there was an immediate clicking sound on the stone wall. The girl An jumped back vigilantly, retreated more than a dozen steps away from the stone wall, and looked vigilantly, for fear that some powerful mechanism would be triggered.
There was a sound on the stone wall, and after the circular patterns shook for a while, there was no other movement, and silence returned to the passage.
"Did I guess wrong?" The girl waited in place for a while, and when she saw that there was really no movement, she returned to the front of the stone wall, took out the dragon claw stuck in the hole on it, and held it in her hand and looked at it repeatedly.
Lu Xihua stood aside with a smile and watched the girl's actions, and did not make a sound prompt, in his opinion, this is the growth of a girl, only after experiencing it can you remember, if you do everything yourself, then An still lives under her own wings after all, and it is very likely to be submerged in this continent.
"I see!" the girl let out a cry of delight, and pulled the dragon's claws back into the hole in the stone wall, but this time she did not rush back away, but stood still and looked at the stone wall.
The girl stretched out her hands and tried to push on the stone wall, and sure enough, the stone ring on the stone wall began to slowly rotate with the strength of the girl's arms. "That's it, I guessed right!" the girl Ann's voice became more and more excited.
There are several stone rings on the stone wall, one ring after another ring from the outside to the inside, and at this moment, under the impetus of the girl, they rotate in turn, and finally stop at a certain position. After taking a closer look at the pattern on it, An was satisfied with the dragon claw in the center of the stone ring, and the dragon claw in the center of the stone ring was pulled again, and there was a clicking sound on the stone wall again.
This time, the sound on the stone wall is no longer silent after a few clicks, but endless, in this sound, several stone rings from large to small also began to slowly rotate on their own, the stone wall shook for a while, and the dark golden dragon claws involuntarily fell off the stone wall and fell to the ground. A puff of dust kicked up, and the entire stone wall looked like it was slowly descending, and behind it was a long staircase.
"Great!" The girl waved her hands as if to cheer herself up, picked up the fallen dragon claws from the ground, stuffed them back into her bag, looked back at Lu Xihua, and saw Lu Xihua smiling, giving herself a thumbs up, and the girl's chin was raised high, looking like "I'm so smart".
The stone wall fell, and behind it was a long staircase, and the dull sound stopped, and the girl regained her alertness, beckoned to Lu Xihua with a longbow in her hand, and walked up the stone steps.
Lu Xihua followed behind the girl and nodded, not being carried away by the momentary cleverness, and being able to stay vigilant was very rare.
The long stone staircase went up, as if it led to a certain place, and the orc girl who was walking in front suddenly turned around and said to Lu Xihua, "Lu, did you hear any sound?"
Lu Xihua replied, "What sound? What did you hear?"
Ann frowned, "It seems to be a song, intermittently, like the kind that many people have sent, one after another." But how can anyone sing in this ancient tomb?"
Lu Xihua nodded, "I didn't hear any singing, but let's go up and take a look." ”
Ann tilted her little head, nodded suspiciously, and her steps became more and more solemn.
The long stone stairs finally came to an end, here is a huge karst cave, very high, about fifty or sixty meters, some sunlight falls overhead, shining in the cave, the light is not bad, many places can be seen clearly. I saw that the wide karst cave has the appearance of more than ten acres, an underground river crosses horizontally from it, a stone bridge crosses the underground river, and in the distance opposite is a spacious stone wall, in front of the stone wall is a high altar, and there are neat sarcophagi lined up everywhere in the cave. The sarcophagus is closed, and it is not known what is buried inside.
Ann turned around and pointed to the high stone wall on the other side of the stone bridge, "Lu, I can hear it more clearly, there is indeed a singing! I am sure! It came from that stone wall! Something seems to be calling me!"
Lu Xihua said, "Then let's be careful, go over and take a look." ”
"Hmm~" Lu Xihua's words seemed to bring courage to the orc girl, she tightened the skin on her back and waist, pinched the longbow in her hand, and walked towards the stone bridge.
Across the stone bridge, there is a high platform, and from the steps next to the high platform, there is the altar. On top of the altar were some strange gems, these gems were prismatic, the index finger was of various sizes and colors, transparent or dim, and it was filled with some gas, as if these gases were trapped inside, and the gas was constantly flowing in the prismatic gems, forming strange patterns.
At this moment, the girl who liked treasures did not pay attention to the strange gems on the altar, but focused her attention on a stone wall behind the altar, and involuntarily stepped over, as if something was deeply attracted to the girl.
