Chapter 105 Treasure Chest
Li Hyuk looked at the crowd.
I saw Frank arguing with two female apprentices in Thorn Valley.
"Yes, I know it is indeed dangerous here, but if there was no danger, wouldn't the treasure have been explored long ago, and would it still be left to us? It is true that two people died in the Bone Monastery, but it was caused by them accidentally. If If we had been more cautious and not entered the house, or had figured out the situation of the house earlier, wouldn't this problem have been gone?
Besides, you are all injured, so just leave like this, wouldn't it be a big loss? We are fine, If you leave, there will be two less people to share the benefits, but are you really willing? You guys took the risk to come here from the other side of the sea. There should be no hope of being promoted to an official wizard, right? If you don't seize this opportunity, you will have to wait. How long?"
Frank kept saying, but the two female apprentices in Thorn Valley were unmoved.
Finally, the second-level wizard apprentice with a rose embroidered on his brow spoke up and made a decision: "No matter what you say, we both have to leave. The profit from the treasure is indeed very tempting, but only by surviving can we have everything. The treasure here is obviously left by a very powerful wizard, and the dangers involved are beyond our ability to solve. I think it will be safe unless we all become third-level wizard apprentices, or have a formal wizard lead the team. Okay, that's it Let's go."
After saying that, the female apprentice took her companion, turned around and walked towards the way she came from.
Frank looked at the backs of the two people leaving, his face a little ugly, but he quickly regained his composure, and looked at the remaining Shadow Academy companions and Li He: "Forget it, just leave the two of them, we can just go without them." Share more, and let's go."
After hearing this, everyone nodded slightly and stepped forward.
As a result, we didn't go far when we suddenly heard a sound coming from behind.
Everyone was startled and turned around quickly.
"Swish!"
Multiple light balls were shot out, illuminating the surrounding area.
I saw that under the light, the two female apprentices from Thorn Valley who had left before came back, their expressions a little complicated.
"Huh? What are you doing?" Frank asked, "Aren't you going to leave? Why are you back? Don't tell me, you suddenly regretted it?" The other party heard
Frank's sarcasm, but was not angry. The second-level wizard The apprentice took a deep breath and said: "It's not that we regretted it, it's not that we don't want to leave, but... we can't leave. In fact, we and you can't leave, we are all trapped here!" "What
? What do you mean?" Frank frowned and asked.
"Come here and take a look, and you'll understand!" The female apprentice from Thorn Valley turned and left.
Frank hesitated and followed, and the others followed suit.
The female apprentice who followed the Thorn Valley walked a few hundred meters towards the way they came from, and everyone gasped.
Suddenly, a dark stone wall suddenly appeared, as if it had always existed, blocking everyone's way.
Frank waved his hand, and a stone cone flew out and hit the stone wall hard, but it only made a shallow crater a few centimeters deep. It seemed that hundreds of attacks could not cause any substantial damage to the stone wall.
Frank's face changed: "How could this happen?"
"It must be the method left behind by the original wizard." The female second-level wizard apprentice in Thorn Valley said, "I said, the danger here is not something we can solve at all."
"But now, it seems we can only move forward, right?" Frank said, "We definitely can't go back. We can only go deeper into the treasure to see if there is another exit." "I hope
... "The female apprentice and the others in Thorn Valley recognized Frank's idea, left the stone wall and walked towards the depths of the treasure.
Li He took a deep look at the stone wall and thought in his mind: This stone wall that appeared silently was indeed very strong, and even he was not sure that it could be destroyed in a short time. And it is not ruled out that there are more barriers behind the stone wall, which in a sense traps him here.
He is not afraid. He has the Black Stone Castle with him, which is equivalent to a mobile base. The water and food stored in it can keep him alive for a year without any problem. If that doesn't work, he can use the chemical raw materials in Blackstone Castle to prepare enough high explosives and blast them out.
At this time, he was even more curious as to why this was happening. The appearance of the stone wall cut off everyone's chance to leave, and they could only continue to delve deeper into the treasure to explore. Did the Blood Countess deliberately set it up like this? And if this is the case, the stone wall did not exist before and appeared after they entered the treasure. They were probably the first people to explore the treasure.
Combined with the many information in his hands, this treasure was most likely left by the Blood Countess hundreds of years ago. Has no one set foot on it for such a long time? Frank can know the location of this treasure. He doesn't believe that anyone else knows the specific information of the treasure. Now that the situation is like this, he always feels that there is something wrong.
After thinking for a while, with doubts, Li He followed the group towards the depths of the treasure.
After walking carefully for more than ten minutes, the ground changed.
Dark green grass slowly appeared on the ground that was originally rock and soil.
After walking a few hundred meters, the grass became more and more abundant and lush.
An illuminating light shot out and flew into the distance. It crossed a parabola in mid-air and then fell. You saw that the ground in front of you was covered with dense dark green grass, like a pure natural carpet.
Thinking about their previous experience in the cannibal house, everyone was very careful and stepped slowly on the lawn. They made sure again and again that there was no danger before going deeper.
As they walked farther and farther, the surrounding area turned into dark green grass. Seeing that there was no problem, everyone felt a little relaxed.
At this time, a somewhat shabby iron box appeared in view.
The iron box was placed sideways, with less than half of it buried in the ground. It looked like it had been there for a long time, and no one knew what was inside.
Looking at the box, the group slowed down and looked at each other. Frank looked at the female second-level wizard apprentice in Thorn Valley and said: "You wanted to leave before, but you couldn't go back and you had to explore this treasure with me. Then the next step If a discovery is found, let your people from Thorn Valley check it out first, as compensation. If there is something in it, your people will take it first, and we will pick the rest. How about it?" The female second-level wizard apprentice in Thorn Valley thought for a while
. He agreed: "Okay."
After saying that, he walked towards the treasure chest.
She was very cautious and did not make direct contact rashly. Instead, she stood two meters in front of the safe, waved the air with her hand, and used magic to force open the safe lid.
After making sure that there was no danger and that there were no traps inside, I walked to the box with confidence and looked inside to see what was inside.
The next moment, her expression suddenly changed.
There were no magical items in the box as expected, and no precious magic stones. Instead, I saw a cyan monster face.
The monster's face was close to the bottom of the box. After seeing the female second-level wizard apprentice, it opened its eyes, cracked its teeth, and showed a ferocious smile.
The female apprentice was startled and was about to retreat. At this moment, the monster in the box roared, and the entire box flew up, swallowing the female apprentice in one gulp.
"Ah!"
A scream sounded instantly.
