Chapter 254 Injecting Venom

"Mr. Nicholas, where are we going?"

"Look for a stone room with some special characters engraved. I guess, there should be some special stone rooms that have no mechanism, and there will be no such dog-headed monster."

"."

Ren led the members of the "Mountain Antelope Group" all the way in the corridor looking for a stone room that might be a "safe house".

The reason why he suspects that there is a "safe house" in this maze is not out of imagination, but because there are "hints" on the stone carvings on the walls of the underground palace.

Although the stone inscriptions are scattered, the "intelligent brain" has recorded them all.

Then, like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, put them together in the system to form a huge residual picture!

"Trial", "Hero", "Inheritance", "Thor", "The Chosen One".

In the underground palace, the carvings on the corridors and walls of the stone chambers repeatedly appear these same but fragmentary words.

This made Ren realize that this is not just a temple and underground palace, but more likely a "trial inheritance place", the trial place of the Pallas royal family in the ancient kingdom of Monkle!

Since it is a place of trials, the meaning of this underground palace is definitely not to kill all the intruders, but to test something.

For example, observation, courage, wisdom, logical thinking ability

Moreover, because of the corner of the residual map that the system automatically spelled out, Renn also guessed the structure of this maze.

This is a very large underground project. The overall shape gives him the feeling of a "magic cube" with countless grids!

It does not have to be a square "Rubik's Cube", but may be other irregular shapes.

Those stone chambers are grids, and then they will move up, down, left, and right according to certain rules.

Because it is large enough, no one can notice the movement of these "grids".

Moreover, there are many methods in this maze specially used to confuse people's perception. Maybe you have heard or seen it, but your perception is still deceived.

For example, Ryan discovered that the black paint on the wall is actually a light-absorbing material, which is an obvious "visual deception"!

He has advanced to the third level of extraordinary, and he is still a high-level extraordinary with enhanced perception. In this dark corridor, he can only see things dozens of meters away.

It is conceivable that other low-level transcendents may only see a few square meters illuminated by the fire.

Moreover, he didn't pay attention to it before, but after careful observation now, he also found more "clues" that confirmed his thoughts.

In fact, many of the wall sutures and palace lanterns in the passage are not ordinary decorations, but "special reference objects" that exist to confuse people's visual perception!

It seems that the size, length and width of the two bricks are the same, but there is a slight error in the actual measurement.

The distance between each palace lantern seems to be the same, but in fact some specific places are different.

This will make you think that you are walking in a straight line, but in fact, you may have inadvertently shifted in some places, or you may have walked an arc long ago, or even turned a corner.

In this environment, visual perception tricks your "sense of direction".

It's not that the corridor is really straight, but your eyes think you're walking in a straight line.

Of course, Ryan was able to come to this conclusion all because of the accurate data obtained by the intelligent brain analysis and comparison.

If it were him himself, even if he realized that there was a problem, he would have to spend dozens of times more effort if he wanted to use manpower to measure them one by one.

This measured time is enough for those "kobolds" to attack countless times.

It was also because he knew that the underground palace was the "place of trial and inheritance", so Ren began to think about the pictographic symbols on the rock walls.

In fact, a certain pattern is also recorded, and the system compares it to get the general meaning of some symbols, such as: pause, back, forward, up, down, falling rocks, quicksand, crossbow arrows, poisonous gas.

Ren guessed that these were the hints to leave the maze, and it was also the theoretical support for him to find the "safe house".

However, all of this is still guesswork for the time being, and all doubts are assumptions until they get out of this maze.

And finding this solution requires a lot of clues (stone carvings), so that the system can complete the "Rubik's Cube Puzzle".

But obviously, now is not the time to wander around the maze.

Renn had seen some obscure ancient text records on the corridors and stone chambers along the way before, and he didn't realize what was written before, but now that he encountered these monsters, he immediately understood.

In each stone chamber, more than 90% of the same patterns and characters are engraved, but there are also a few different things.

This is a bit like a little game from Ryan's previous life - "Let's find fault".

In this dim light, it was extremely difficult to tell the difference with the naked eye.

But Ren, who has a "smart brain", doesn't need him to compare them next to each other. With a sweep of his eyes, the system quickly compares the different words hidden in the same carving.

This... probably tests the observation skills of the "brave man"?

【Death will be to the greedy intruder】

【The messenger of death 'Osiris' will quietly appear behind you.】

[Only in the dark place can you see the bright stars. 】

[The God of Destroyer Thunder came to the world, only the brave can face everything. 】

【.】

Many of these texts are ambiguous, and Ren is not sure which one is the so-called "safe house".

But because tens of thousands of people entered the underground palace this time, corpses killed by monsters were left in many stone chambers and corridors.

This also allowed him to directly rule out those stone rooms with corpses and leave quickly.

Then, finally, they encountered another wave of monster attacks, and after one person died, they found a stone room that no one had ever set foot in.

There are no corpses here, but there are many golden utensils buried with them!

"Wait. It looks like here."

Ren's gaze quickly swept away, and then fell on a text engraved on the wall of this stone room: [Thunder God's Sanctuary, the brave who go to the hell trial can get a breather. 】

Captain Bart watched Ren stopped in this stone room and asked, "Mr. Nicholas, is this the place you are looking for?"

Ren nodded, his eyes flashed brightly, and said: "Not necessarily. But we can only try."

Ren said to stop, and everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Group" naturally had no objection at all.

Now that they knew that there was a "real boss" in the team, they all naturally hugged their thighs tightly.

A group of people held muskets, back to back in twos, pointing the muzzle of the guns at the dark place and aiming around, looking anxiously on guard.

Fortunately, they stayed for nearly a quarter of an hour without encountering any danger.

Finally, everyone's hanging hearts gradually calmed down, and the feeling of being haunted by bad luck also faded away.

"This stone room. Doesn't seem to be in danger?"

"It seems to be. If there is such a dog-headed monster, it should have shown up long ago."

"Shh, keep your voice down"

"."

The voice of the conversation was very low, but it was also heard that everyone's tension was easing.

Everyone felt more and more fortunate that there was such a "Doctor Nicholas" in the team who could understand the symbols of ancient civilization.

Otherwise, Bart felt that they would not notice any "tricks" in these stone chambers.

I'm afraid they will scurry around in the corridor like headless chickens.

In that case, about a dozen of them will be killed by those monsters sooner or later.

Ren was studying the murals on the wall carefully, and no one bothered him.

Bart also tried to distinguish the strangeness of these almost identical stone chambers, but he gave up in an instant. That is simply not something that can be figured out in a short time.

Finally hearing Renshu's voice, Bart asked, "Mr. Nicholas, are we safe now?"

"It should be fine."

Ren nodded.

It now appears that his conjecture is correct, this is the "safe house". The content on the stone carvings implies that it is safe here.

"call"

Bart breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ren nod his head.

Not only him, but everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Regiment" was also like this. The stiff fingers on the trigger of the musket can finally be loosened.

After waiting for a while, there was no danger, and Ren breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the members of the "Mountain Antelope Group" who were staring nervously, waiting for him to speak, and said, "This place is safe for the time being, and we may stay here for a while. Everyone can take a good rest."

Everyone in Bart looked happy: "Okay."

Everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Regiment" put the wounded in the corner, unloaded the load, and then began to organize the equipment that had been messed up by the hasty rush. Eat, drink, and bandage.

The sense of fatal crisis shrouded in the heart can finally be relaxed for a moment, and everyone's thoughts drifted away with their eyes.

This stone room is about 20 to 30 square meters, and there are several golden coffins that don't know whether they contain corpses, but no one dares to touch them.

But the golden objects and treasures around were like funerary goods, but under the light of the fire, they shone with attractive golden light.

The young wild hunters were getting more and more greedy looking at the room full of gold artifacts, but they dared not open their mouths.

Looking at each other, several veteran players touched the blond young man with their elbows. Then, the young player named Paul looked slightly nervous, but he also stood up and spoke weakly.

He asked: "That... Head, can we collect the funerary objects here?"

Four people have died now, and they don't know if they can get out alive. But if he can survive this time, he will continue to earn money.

The wild hunters are fighting with their lives for this "getting rich overnight".

Captain Bart naturally knew what the team members were thinking.

But he didn't respond immediately, but turned to ask Ren, who was studying the murals, and said, "Mr. Nicholas, what do you think? Will it cause trouble if we collect these ancient objects now?"

"It should be fine."

Ren nodded, naturally he would not stop everyone from making a fortune, and said, "Treasures can be taken, but it's best not to touch the coffin. Be careful, if there is something you don't understand, you'd better tell me."

"good!"

Hearing this, everyone was happy and wanted to do it.

But at this time, Bart glared at the anxious team members again, and everyone immediately realized something, and their expressions were a little embarrassed.

Bart spoke again, and asked Ren: "Mr. Nicholas, you think you have to choose first"

The strongest in the hunting group has the right to choose the harvest first, this is the rule.

And if you want to talk about distribution according to work, the "Doctor Nicholas" in front of you takes 80% of the treasure here, and no one will say anything.

But before Bart finished speaking, Ren interrupted him, shook his head and said, "No, I'm not short of money. In comparison, these stone carvings are more interesting to me. Of course, if you find strange Things, such as ancient scrolls, you can show me."

These yellow and white things are really useless to Ren, the "lord of the Black Dragon City", except for occupying storage space.

For him now, making money is too easy and there are many ways. There is no need to compete with a group of low-level extraordinary.

"Ah, that's it."

Although it was an expected answer, Bart also felt a little dizzy from being hit in the head by a pie.

For them, the funerary objects in front of them can be regarded as "sudden wealth".

If he could be taken out alive, the "gamble" this time would be worth the gamble!

But the other party didn't intend to divide at all?

Seeing that "Doctor Nicholas" casually consumed more than 100,000 medicines, Bart guessed that he was not an ordinary doctor.

Hearing these words now, Bart has already seen that this is probably a very "big man" in front of him!

He didn't say much, and said a little excitedly, "Then we won't be polite."

After successive downturns in downsizing, everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Group" finally ushered in a bumper harvest.

This stone room is full of various funerary objects, gold, jewelry.

The royal family of the ancient kingdom of Monkel seems to be particularly fond of gold products. There are golden lights everywhere, such as knives and forks, dinner plates, candlesticks, kettles, and basins.

There are also various gemstones with fresh colors, rubies, sapphires, opals, emeralds, taaffeites, diamonds. They are inlaid on luxurious crowns, or on various necklaces and rings

As soon as the fire light shone, the entire stone room reflected a bright light like a peacock spreading its tail.

In the entire "Mountain Antelope Group", only the head of the group, Bart, has a storage ring with a space of only one-fifth of a cubic meter. But in this stone room, all kinds of gold wares, large and small, are piled up to about several cubic meters.

Ren, who was studying the mural, was also attracted by the crisp sound of gold coins in his ear.

Turning around, I saw that everyone was busy, putting handfuls into animal skin bags and planning to carry them on their shoulders.

Everyone is a transcendent, so dozens of tons of property can probably be carried away by human power.

But just like this big bag and small bag, the words "I have money" are almost pasted on the forehead. Don't say it, if you encounter some malicious hunters in the tunnel, you will probably get angry.

Ren smiled, then took out a few black rings, greeted Bart and said: "Here are a few storage rings that I don't need, so you can use them. Otherwise, if you really want to run into someone else, Seeing you like this, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

"A storage ring?"

Bart looked at the ring handed out by Ren, with eyes full of disbelief, and asked again: "Give it to us?"

In a daze, the ring was already in his hand.

Looking at it again, the storage space of any ring is several times larger than the one in his own hand.

It costs millions of lisuo to wear this one on my hand, so these storage rings with a large space are also sky-high prices?

Just send it away?

Ren nodded: "Yeah."

It was originally the spoils of killing people, and it was useless to keep too much on them.

"Thank you, Mr. Nicholas."

Bart didn't budge, and with a face full of sincere gratitude, he took the storage ring.

Quietly collected the top-quality gemstones that were going to be given to Ren just now. The value of these things he picked together is not even as valuable as a storage ring.

The Wild Hunting Group received such a "gracious gift", and Sister Pasha and the Wild Hunting members also said sincerely: "Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Nicholas."

This is a huge amount of wealth that is enough to change their fate in their lives.

If they can get out alive, they may be able to rely on this money to spend the rest of their lives in peace, instead of hunting for wilderness with their lives.

Ren smiled, and replied lightly: "You're welcome."

Everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Group" was busy cleaning up the treasures in the stone room. After studying the sculpture of Ren in the stone room, they seemed a little idle.

At this time, he looked at the body attribute panel displayed by the system.

In the column he named [dog head paralysis toxin resistance], the value has increased a lot.

This is because after being bitten by a "kobold" before, after the venom was injected into the body, the body's immune system was renewed, raising the threshold of this toxin resistance.

Then without thinking too much, he took out the syringe again and injected the paralyzing toxin collected from the poison gland of the "Kobold" monster's corpse into his body.

The dosage is a little more than last time, but it is still within the range that the body can bear.

With a system monitoring the body panel, he doesn't have to worry about "poisoning". Even if other problems are caused, he is a doctor himself and can deal with it accurately at any time.

Injecting toxins is the fastest way to increase toxin resistance.

Of course, it was also because he had advanced to [Voodoo Master] that he dared to play like this.

And the extraordinary ability of the awakening of this genetic potion allowed his immune system to adapt to the toxin in a very short period. Just a few more injections would make him more and more resistant to the toxin.

This is to allow Ren himself to have a better chance of saving his life in this underground palace.

As with any poison, there is a dose. Regardless of dosage, talking about toxicity is hooliganism.

Now the amount of toxin injected into one "Kobold" does not have a fatal effect on him, but if there are many heads, or a sudden large amount, he has to be careful.

After the resistance of this [dog head paralyzing toxin] is high, this maze is easy for him to go.

After a toxin went down, the body felt the familiar numbness again.

It came only after a power outage. Today there will be an update.
