Chapter 109 Take action
"Da, da, da..."
The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty palace, and a group of five people walked carefully towards the depths of the palace.
The first ones were the blue-robed female apprentice from Shadow Academy and the skinny male apprentice named Nok.
Next came the oval-faced female apprentice, and Frank.
Finally, there is Li Hyuk.
As we go deeper into the palace, rows of tall stone pillars appear, with complex patterns carved on them.
Li He looked over and discerned for a moment, and found that the so-called pattern seemed to be a kind of writing, but it was different from any writing he knew, whether it was the Foralenza script or the Devil's Contract script. He vaguely felt that these words should record some valuable information. If there was a chance to decipher them, he might be able to learn something.
After exploring the treasures, if you have time, you can try to take pictures of these words, and then look for opportunities to see if you can decipher them... Li He thought.
The rest of the people didn't pay attention to the lines on the stone pillars. They walked quickly past the stone pillars and walked farther and farther into the darkness.
Li Hyuk followed.
Remaining careful, he passed through several halls in the main hall and emerged into a huge room that occupied less than half a basketball court.
What attracts the most attention is a white stone table placed under a white stone wall directly in front.
On the stone table is a dark brown iron box.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they couldn't help but approach the iron box to see what was inside.
Unsurprisingly, inside is probably the most valuable item in the entire treasure trove.
However, the group of people had learned a lot of lessons along the way, thinking about the various dangers they encountered, and did not dare to move forward rashly.
After all, who knows if the Iron Chest is just another Mimic? Who knows if there are any traps left around here?
So everyone first carefully explored the entire room to make sure that there was really no danger, and then turned their attention back to the iron box on the stone table - except Li He, who paid more attention to the iron box than just looking at the iron box. The white stone wall at the back—if he remembered correctly, this wall was included in the image of the Pathfinder Crystal.
The group of people stared at the iron box for a long time, but still did not rush up. After a brief discussion, the blue-robed female apprentice took action and hit several sides of the iron box with a few gentle wind blades to destroy the iron box and see what was inside.
"Stab - bang!"
The blue-robed female apprentice was quite experienced in controlling the wind blade. She quickly took action and accurately hit the iron box, opening the outer shell.
The next moment, there was a "crash", and the contents of the iron box spilled out instantly, covering the entire stone table.
Everyone looked at it, their breaths stagnated, and several people's eyes widened.
"Magic stones! So many magic stones!"
"And they are high-quality high-grade magic stones! This... I really made a fortune now" "
There are also magic items!"
"Those don't seem to be ordinary magic items, they are the best. The best magical item!"
Looking at it, he saw a large number of precious high-grade magic stones scattered out of the box. Each one was the size of a peach core, crystal clear, and exuding an alluring light blue light in the night.
But what is more tempting than the high-level magic stone are the four fluorescent magical items placed on top of the magic stone.
A bracelet, a pendant, an earring, a bracelet.
The iron box just now seemed to have some kind of isolation effect on energy fluctuations. It was fine when it was placed in the iron box. After it was opened, everyone present could clearly feel the strong energy fluctuations contained in the four demonized items.
That was incomparable to the magical items previously found in dilapidated housing areas.
The ones I found before could only be of ordinary level, which gave everyone something to gain, but it was not too surprising.
And now the four pieces in the box are completely different. Even if the specific effects are not known, just from the energy fluctuations, it can be determined that they are extremely precious existences. Even the most advanced third-level wizard apprentice may not be able to own one.
This is an elusive thing, and no matter how many magic stones you have, you may not be able to buy it. Just one piece can greatly improve one's own strength. It can allow a first-level apprentice to challenge a second-level wizard apprentice, a second-level wizard apprentice to challenge a third-level wizard apprentice, and the third-level wizard apprentice can crush those who were equal to him before. A powerful opponent.
This is simply an existence that transcends levels.
"This magical item... If you can get one, you really came to the right place. Although this adventure is very dangerous, it is worth it if you can get one!" said the blue-robed female apprentice.
"But there are only four pieces. We have five people here now..." The oval-faced female apprentice said, a little playfully, "Who is willing to give up? Otherwise, one piece for each person is not enough." As he spoke, the oval-faced female apprentice
's His eyes drifted towards Li He vaguely.
Li He instantly felt that besides the oval-faced female apprentice, several eyes were on him.
Um?
He raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Frank and his party, and narrowed his eyes.
Why, do you think you have finished exploring and want to get more things to get rid of him? Speaking of which, at this stage of the expedition, all the rest of the wizard organization were dead. The remaining four were all shadow academy wizard apprentices. He was the only outsider, so it made sense to deal with him together.
So...
he looked at Frank and his group.
He noticed that Frank and another male apprentice named Nok quietly leaned together, making a secret gesture with his lowered hand, as if sending some signal.
The next moment, the two waved their hands quickly, and an ice pick and an acid ball flew out.
but!
Instead of attacking Li He, he attacked the blue-robed female apprentice and the oval-faced female apprentice respectively.
The two female apprentices did not react at all, especially the oval-faced female apprentice who was still thinking of colluding with the others to attack Li He. How could they have imagined that she was attacked first.
The incident happened suddenly, without any protection. The spell accurately hit the vital points of the two people, and its power was fully released.
"Poof!"
The ice pick pierced the heart of the blue-robed female apprentice, and blood spurted out, followed by being frozen by the cold air emitted by the ice pick.
The blue-robed female apprentice's eyes widened, and she fell down clutching the wound in her heart.
"Stab!"
The thick green acid ball directly hit the oval-faced female apprentice's face, as if a bottle of highly concentrated sulfuric acid had been poured on her. The entire face quickly rotted away as the other party screamed.
The female apprentice couldn't help but wipe her face with her hands. As a result, she peeled off her entire face and corroded her fingers.
The acid continued to corrode the female apprentice's face, beginning to corrode the flesh, then the bones.
Finally, the female apprentice wailed and fell to the ground, making no more noise. More than half of her brain disappeared in the decay, which was quite terrifying.
The direction of things like this was completely beyond Li He's expectation.
Seeing the bodies of the two female apprentices lying on the ground, he looked at Frank and Nok who took action.
Frank still had a kind expression on his face, completely unable to tell that he had just killed his fellow college mate.
