Chapter 136 Dungeon and Traps
A few days later, under the command of Roja, the Lich finally dug into a small part of the wall of the dungeon.
This is a vertical stone brick wall, most of which is still buried in the hard soil. Ordinary people can't imagine how big it is.
Each stone brick is the same size, about half a meter long and more than thirty centimeters wide. The surface is earthy yellow and somewhat rough.
It looks ordinary and has no special aura.
But the wall it consists of can remain intact in such a deep underground without even a crack. You know it has extremely high strength without trying it.
Above Roja and the Lich is a dark passage thousands of meters long, with no trace of light in sight.
The entrance to the passage on the ground has long been hidden by the Lich with magic, making it difficult for an average mage to spot it from the outside.
"There is actually a dungeon hidden..."
Standing in front of the wall, the Skeleton Mage seemed a little unbelievable.
But soon its tone became very excited, like a gold digger who had discovered a gold mine:
"This is the relic left by the ancient demon god! We were the first to discover it! We must find the entrance quickly!" "
Roya glanced at the overly excited Lich and said, 'Continue digging downwards. The entrance to this dungeon is still a few hundred meters below." '
Having the ability to perceive like a holographic projection in the territory area, he has long discovered the entrance to the dungeon, and from the beginning he asked the lich to go straight to the entrance to dig.
"Yes, Lord."
The skeleton mage seemed to have calmed down a bit and continued to cast spells to drill down the passage.
After another few hundred meters, a huge stone door appeared on the wall that was exposed again.
The stone door is seven or eight meters high and consists of two huge stone slabs.
The stone slabs appear to be made of the same material as the walls, with asymmetrical red stripes painted on them, forming a circular pattern that looks like the wings of a bird.
"Bird of Fire!"
The Lich exclaimed, "This is the symbol of the Great Demon God Copperfield! This is his dungeon!"
At this moment, lines of illusory text appeared on the panel in front of Roja's eyes. :
[The Frost Lord discovered a dungeon built by an ancient demon god beneath his territory, which contains huge dangers and rare treasures]
[Mission: Ancient Ruins! ]
[Note 1: Explore this mysterious building and look for the treasure left by the devil. Difficulty: S, Reward: Increase with the progress of the strategy, and issue experience and free points]
[Note 2: After 100% complete strategy, you will receive special rewards related to this dungeon]
[ Strategy progress: 0%]
S-level tasks... …The risk of death is very high.
If it weren't for the ability to resurrect in the territory, Roja would most likely not consider a mission of this level at all, and he didn't have to go in.
But you can try it now.
'Lich, what do you think? '
Hearing Roja's inquiry, the Skeleton Mage said:
"Copperfield is a well-known ancient demon god. There must be unimaginable treasures in the ruins he left behind."
Seeing that Roja didn't speak, it continued Said:
"Although there will be dangerous traps, the devil will usually leave a chance of survival for those who come after..."
Is this a strong attempt to persuade me to go in?
Roja suspected that the lich wished he could die inside so that he could escape his control.
And as long as its phylactery is intact, it is immortal. Even if this body dies in the trap, it can be resurrected through the body left outside.
At this moment, the red lines on the stone door suddenly lit up with bursts of magical light.
"boom……"
The next second, with the heavy sound of stone slabs moving, the door opened automatically, revealing a wide passage paved with stone bricks inside.
The walls on both sides of the passage are inlaid with yellow magic crystals for lighting. You can clearly see that there is a T-shaped intersection at the end of the road. Hey guys, automatic sensor door?
Just when Roja was confused, the Lich explained:
"There is usually a kind of familiar called 'Earth Spirit' to control the operation of dungeons. The automatic opening of the door means that the Earth Spirit has awakened."
Well...
Roja thought. Start calling your subordinates.
Silently, three blue summoning arrays lit up on the ground. After a few breaths, the Amazon female warrior who transformed into a frost undead and two undead skeleton soldiers walked out of them.
Roja ordered the two skeleton soldiers to move forward,
but nothing happened until they reached a fork in the road.
Didn't trigger the trap?
Roja thought for a moment and shot out two white finger lights that penetrated the heads of the two skeleton soldiers.
"Poof!" The skeleton soldier died, and his body turned into snowflakes and exploded.
The Lich turned his head slightly and glanced at Roja, seeming to be thinking about why he did this.
After the death of the skeleton soldier, there was still no change in the passage.
But Roja soon sensed that they had been resurrected in the Undead Mountains above.
This shows that after he enters the dungeon, the resurrection power of the territory will probably take effect, so he does not have to worry about "death".
Roja summoned two skeleton soldiers again and asked them to move forward, and then he followed in.
But when he, the ancient lich and the female warrior walked into the passage, the door behind them suddenly closed with a bang.
Just close the door after entering. It's really a classic mechanism...
Roja took out the cursed gun and stabbed it hard at the wall on the side.
"Boom!"
Sure enough, it was useless, not even a trace was left, indicating that the door behind it was difficult to open with brute force.
The Lich said: "There are defensive spells carved by the devil himself on the walls here. It is said that any dungeon cannot be destroyed even by the legendary mage. You can only follow the rules." Roja nodded and walked to the fork in the road
. He asked the two skeleton soldiers to walk to both sides.
"Ta, tap, tap..." The footsteps of the skeleton soldiers echoed in the silent passage.
"Boom, boom..."
Suddenly, with the sound of heavy rolling stones,
the bricks under the feet of the skeleton on the left suddenly sank as if the bottom had lost support. A large area of the ground collapsed in the blink of an eye, revealing a deep hole.
"Ho!"
It opened its mouth and subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab something, but its body fell straight down.
"Bang!"
After falling vertically for more than ten meters,
the skeleton soldier was pierced through the body and head by a dozen sharp stone thorns at the bottom of the cave. He died on the spot and disappeared in a burst of flying snowflakes.
Burrow trap?
Roja frowned slightly in his heart and looked at the skeleton mage aside.
The Lich said: "It is said that the traps inside the dungeon become more dangerous as you go deeper. The magic mechanism in the deepest part is enough to trap the legendary mage to death..." At this moment
, a huge wave of red fire suddenly spurted out from the wall of the passage on the right. , swallowing up the remaining skeleton soldier entirely.
"Boom——!"
Seeing its body melting rapidly inside, it completely vaporized and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
I woke up, still coding, and
