322, the undersea palace
Wu Daoan lay tired in the bathtub, looking out the window at the dark night that had lasted for two weeks, and his heart was hesitant.
Ever since the sun didn't rise, the sea beasts kept making trouble as if they had taken stimulants. Sometimes the magister who works at night is not enough to cope with the sudden time, so he will call Wu Daoan and them over to help, so they can't rest well after work, which is really miserable.
Although such frequent high-level battles are very helpful for improving strength, Wu Daoan still cherishes his own life even more.
Fortunately, in every battle, he can always get special protection from others, intentionally or unintentionally, and although he has contributed the least in battle, no one has ever accused him, it seems that good looks are really an advantage, and the weakest one is miraculously not injured so far. However, the leader of the group, Weskrin, was seriously injured in the fierce battle the day before yesterday and was sent to the magic hospital, where he was replaced by a new peak magister.
Just as he was in his reverie, there was a quick knock at the bathroom door: "Hurry up! The old man is going to pee!
Wu Daoan put on his bathrobe helplessly and went to open the door for the old man. When Feng Otto saw the door open, he was about to go straight to the toilet, but suddenly stopped and stared at Wu Daoan's face: "Why do you have a curse mark on your forehead?"
Usually Wu Daoan would cover his forehead with bangs, but now that he had just finished taking a shower, his hair was wet and clinging to his forehead one by one, and the mark on his forehead was exposed.
Wu Daoan thought about it, and then briefly described the matter: "Na, you have also seen that I was cursed by a vicious undead creature when I was in the open sea, at least the grandmaster can unravel it." ”
Von Otto seemed to understand: "No wonder you want to see the Grandmaster so much. Anyway, you've been working in the Sea Beast for a while. Have you seen that grandmaster?"
When he mentioned this, Wu Daoan was angry: "I worked so hard, let alone the grandmaster." I haven't even seen a sage, and I feel like I'm being cannon fodder, left to fend for myself, and unlucky to die. ”
"But at least the pay is good. Von Otto opened his mouth to comfort.
To tell the truth, every time you deal with an accident, you will immediately receive a bonus from the association. But then again, what Wu Daoan wants now is not money, otherwise he will be cursed and become a half-undead one day. It is estimated that he will be arrested and burned to death by the law enforcement team immediately, and what is the use of more money.
Von Otto also saw Wu Daoan's upset and paced in the bathroom for a long time. Suddenly, he said, "Actually, to lift the high-level curse on your body, you don't have to be a grandmaster. There is another way. ”
"What method?" Wu Daoan seemed to grasp a life-saving straw.
Von Otto took out a crumpled piece of paper from his crotch and carefully unfolded it: "This is a treasure map left by the ancestor of the Magic Emperor of our family, and it is said that it contains the supreme treasure 'Great Emperor's Wishing Ball' left by the ancestor. It can fulfill your three wishes. This wishing ball is the crystallization of the power of the emperor's life. As long as the Great Emperor can do it, it can be realized for you, and the curse on your body will definitely not be a problem. ”
Wu Daoan always feels that this story is a little familiar, well, isn't this a copy of Aladdin's magic lamp!
Seeing his suspicion, Von Otto hurriedly raised a hand: "I vouch for my noble personality that everything I said is true." ”
At this moment, Wu Daoan didn't believe him even more.
Von Otto shrugged: "You don't believe me. Just wait for the curse to strike. Anyway, I recently heard that Grandmaster Cavendish has rushed to the capital. Another Grandmaster has traveled to other planes all year round and has not been found, so it is estimated that you will not be able to see the Grandmaster anytime soon. ”
Wu Daoan was also at a loss, gritting his teeth: "Dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water, I will believe you for a while." ”
The two said that they would do it, and they would leave immediately.
First of all, Wu Daoan followed Von Otto to the munitions store and bought a high-grade submarine inscribed with a magic array, which cost half of his savings at once. Then, they came to the port, showed proof of purchase, received the keys to the submarine, and drove directly into the deep sea.
The sea is vast, I don't know how deep. It is even rumored that the heart of the Sunset Sea is a bottomless pit that leads to other uncharted planes. Of course, he didn't care about these rumors, and concentrated on driving the submarine along the route of the treasure map.
As the submarine dives deeper and deeper, the fish species outside are constantly changing. At first, the common food fish floated outside the window, and then there were unknown fish. Nowadays, the fish outside the window are all very flat, like paper cutouts swimming in the sea, which shows that the water pressure is very high.
The submarine continued to dive, and this time there were no flatfish to be seen, and only occasionally swarms of plankton smaller than a grain of rice could be seen outside. Because plankton has its own light-emitting organs, it looks like fireflies in the night sky from a distance.
Unfortunately, the console of the submarine sounded an alarm at this time: "Warning, the depth of the dive is close to the limit, and there is a risk of failure if you continue to dive." ”
Wu Daoan glared at Von Otto: "I said, how deep is it? If the submarine can't withstand the water pressure and explodes, I can still save my life as a magister, but I will definitely not save you." ”
Von Otto also glared back unconvinced: "Your little girl's conscience has been eaten by dogs? Where is the virtue of respecting the old and loving the young? Did you natives from the outer seas never take ideological and moral classes when they were young, so their hearts are so dark?"
Just as the two were arguing about the proposition that 'if you see a person falling into the water but you can't swim, should you go down to save people', a little light suddenly appeared in front of the submarine, which was particularly abrupt in the dark deep sea. Von Otto's face was excited, snatched the steering wheel of the submarine and drove towards the bright spot.
Slowly, the bright spots began to become clear, it turned out that there was a hole in the depths of the seabed, and the door of the cave was engraved with a magic array, and the light came from this magic array itself.
After the submarine passed through the magic array, the surrounding sea water disappeared instantly, and the submarine suddenly fell to the ground in a daze. It turned out that the one at the door was a waterproof magic array, which automatically blocked the inflow of seawater.
The submarine was obviously unusable, and the two had to abandon walking. Wu Daoan wanted to summon a fireball to illuminate it, but he found that there were no magic elements around, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
At this time, Von Otto calmly turned on the flashlight and looked at him with disdain: "Young people are hairy, and they don't know how to bring a flashlight." ”
Wu Daoan retreated, and pulled Lavon Otto's sleeve: "Let's go back as a submarine." I can't do magic here, I'm like a waste, and I'm a little scared. ”
Von Otto gave him a big look of disdain: "How can today's young people have such a bad temperament and retreat when they encounter such a bad thing." If you fall into a strange plane with no magic elements at all, you don't have to cry dad and call your mother in a hurry. ”
Wu Daoan was successfully enraged: "You are not afraid of an old man, what am I afraid of!"
So, the two shared a flashlight and walked slowly through the cave.
I don't know how long I walked, but there was a bright light in front of the cave, and it seemed that I had reached the exit. And the moment he stepped out of the exit, Wu Daoan couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: he saw an ancient tall palace standing in front of it, and the lights inside were bright, which looked particularly abrupt in this dark hole in the seabed.
