Chapter 256 Wrong!

Carrying the oil lamp, Qin Ran and the others walked towards the former inner city of Yisu Ancient City.

They did this more than once during the week.

Apart from wanting to quickly find out the whereabouts of that 'weapon', just because of today's situation, they don't want any 'abnormal behavior' to arouse suspicion from the prying night monsters.

To put it simply, use the inertia of thinking to paralyze the night monster.

This approach is far more effective than imagined.

At least, he didn't notice that there was a night monster following.

Or... Those night monsters were beyond his perception.

Kieran's memory of the night monster's perception is still fresh.

Maybe not every night monster can reach this level, but it only takes a part of the elite to reach this level, which is enough to shock people.

Not to mention, leaders among the elite.

Just thinking about it, Qin Ran frowned.

Therefore, Kieran, who was following Herbert, became more and more cautious.

Herbert stopped and walked all the way, checking the notes in his hand from time to time.

When Herbert finally stopped, they had already come to an underground pit.

Qin Ran is no stranger to this place.

On the third day after arriving in the ancient city of Aesop, he and Herbert had been here.

According to Herbert, this place should be the residence of a knight.

Moreover, he also introduced the composition of the knight's residence to Kieran in detail.

Especially the Martial Arts Field among them is still fresh in Qin Ran's memory.

After all, compared to the halls and corridors of other nobles, the appearance of this Martial arts arena is really unique. Coupled with the narrow surroundings, it can even be called cramped bedrooms, living rooms, and study rooms. Qin Ran can't remember it. Disaster.

At this moment, Herbert was standing on the martial arts arena, groping carefully.

A few minutes later--

Boom!

There was a sound like muffled thunder.

On the relatively spacious martial arts arena, a square, enough for two people to pass side by side, appeared a downward hole.

"Go!"

Qin Ran immediately shouted in a low voice.

He didn't lament the secret door that still works after 1,500 years, and he didn't confirm whether it contained mysterious power.

Because, he had already heard bursts of noise in his ears.

It was the sound of the skirt being blown by the wind while running fast.

Moreover, there is more than one person!

That is the movement that can only be caused by hundreds of people acting at the same time.

Herbert, Peale, and the big guy got into the hole at once.

Along the way, Kieran's performance has already won their trust.

Qin Ran was the last one.

In his hand was ignited explosives.

Qin Ran wanted to blow up the entrance.

It is undoubtedly a great risk to blow up the entrance without confirming whether there are other exits.

But compared with the night-species monsters that came after them, such a risk is really nothing to mention.

Even if there is no road, a road can be opened by relying on the explosives in hand.

You can face the night monster that is about to achieve its goal.

They are truly immortal.

boom!

The smoke filled the air and the dust was flying.

The entrance that had just been opened began to collapse.

Large chunks of rock fell from overhead, not only blocking the entrance, but also descending the stairs in front of them.

"2567, block those stones!"

Herbert's voice came.

Although he didn't know why Herbert did this, his trust in the old scholar made him change his original thinking of dodging and running. He drew out the [Infantry Spear] on his back and tapped or smashed it to open smaller stones. Drop larger rocks.

It is not difficult for an expert-level 【Cold Weapon. Polearm】to do this.

The only thing to consider are the bigger rocks.

When a stone the size of a millstone fell, Kieran had no choice but to retreat completely.

However, it is not simply a retreat.

The [Infantry Spear] in his hand continued to stab out.

clang clang clang!

The tip of the gun collided with the stones constantly.

Every time sparks fly.

And every time the power transmitted from the [Infantry Spear] slowed down the speed of the rolling stones.

When Qin Ran exited the corridor, the stone the size of a millstone had stopped.

"Nice job!"

Peel ran over with more explosives on his back, and as he talked, he filled the entire corridor with explosives.

"I want those damned monsters to understand that sharp teeth are not enough!"

Pierre stared at the collapsed entrance through the millstone-sized block, his kerosene lamp held high.

Kieran believed that once the stones at the entrance were removed, it would be the time for the kerosene lamp in Pierre's hand to fall.

And he didn't mind making the explosion a little more thorough.

Taking out more explosives from the backpack behind the big guy, Kieran began to arrange them in the hall in front of him while looking around.

This is a small hall.

Except for a stone tablet in the middle that is as tall as two people and engraved with the characters of the Nick Dynasty, there is only a stone statue that is as tall as a person in the distance.

The moment he saw the stele, the system's reminder to complete the side mission appeared.

【Sub-quest: Find the lost thing! (Finish)】

[Find the lost thing, Aesop's ancient city exploration speed +3%]

[Main task: explore at least 20% of the ancient city of Aesop within four weeks, with a completion rate of 18%]

The surge in exploration speed after finding the 'lost thing' was expected by Kieran.

Compared with eating other people's "leftovers" in the past, this time drinking soup by myself will naturally have a different degree of exploration.

It's just that the degree of completion of exploration is less than what Qin Ran imagined.

"This is the 'weapon'?"

"Or how to make a 'weapon'?"

"The missing part of the exploration speed is to interpret the stone tablet?"

Qin Ran guessed, his eyes shifted slightly to look at the statue in the distance.

It was a stone statue of a man standing with his hands behind his back.

The carvings of the stone statues are not decorated too much, and there are neither long swords, armors representing bravery, nor books representing wisdom.

But this does not mean that the carving of stone statues is rough.

In fact, the stone statue in front of him was extremely detailed, and the facial features of the other party were all lifelike.

Therefore, Kieran could clearly tell that this was a standard oriental appearance.

"Oriental?"

In the dungeon world before him, this was the first time Kieran saw an Oriental.

Although it was only a stone statue, it was enough for Qin Ran, who was already observant, to take a closer look.

However, apart from the rare oriental face and meticulous carvings, there is nothing special about the statue in front of me.

After reconfirming, Kieran turned to look at the stele where Herbert was.

But the moment he turned around, Qin Ran was taken aback.

"Huh!"

"The gaze of the statue..."

Qin Ran turned around and carefully looked at the statue's eyes. Then, he walked to a position next to the statue, and followed the statue's gaze to the distant ceiling.

There are a large number of characters and pictures that ordinary people seem to be irregular.

However, in Qin Ran's eyes, there are traces to follow.

A secret text written with [mysterious knowledge]!

"The ambition of His Majesty the Emperor made him even more furious. The day the saint prophesied is coming..."

"Dead bodies piled up the entire capital, and the river was completely stained red..."

"The disaster is coming!"

"We destroy ourselves!"

"The fire of sin has burned all over the earth!"

"I leave only my sad learning..."

[Explore the ancient city secrets by yourself, Aesop's ancient city exploration rate +1.5%]

[Main task: explore at least 20% of the ancient city of Aesop within four weeks, with a completion rate of 19.5%]

Kieran read these secret texts, although most of the secret texts were unrecognizable, and a small part of them were intermittent.

However, this does not hinder the growth of exploration completion and Kieran's memory.

Because of the low level of [Mysterious Knowledge], Kieran was already used to memorizing some mysterious knowledge that he saw but could not understand into his mind by rote.

This is not an easy task.

Especially at the beginning, Qin Ran suffered from dizziness all over the place.

But as the number of times increased, Qin Ran gradually mastered some shorthand secret knowledge tricks.

Although it is impossible to memorize everything at a glance, when Herbert in the distance finished copying the content on the stele, Kieran almost remembered it.

At the same time, the kerosene lamp that Pierre had been holding up was smashed down.

Boom, boom!

Entering the underground corridor, it collapsed again.

"hurry up!"

"We have to find another way out!"

"Those guys are digging faster than we thought!"

Pierre shouted at Herbert.

Among the people present, Herbert was undoubtedly the one who was most familiar with the ruins in front of him, and he naturally listened to the other party where to blast an exit.

But in the face of Peel's yelling, Herbert turned a deaf ear to it, staring blankly at the contents of the transcribed stele, muttering non-stop, as if possessed by a demon.

"Wrong! Wrong!"

"We were wrong in the first place!"

Such a voice stunned Qin Ran and Pi Er who were approaching.

"Herbert, what's the matter?"

Pierre reached out and patted Herbert on the shoulder puzzled.

The old scholar was awakened as if he had just woken up from a dream, and then he said very fast: "Quick! Blow up the stele!"

Pierre became more and more puzzled, but the speed was not slow.

Soon, bundles of explosives were tied to the stele.

Then, the lead was ignited.

Chuck!

Large swathes of sparks appeared, and Herbert stared at the wire, showing a nervous expression that Kieran had never seen before.

boom!

When the stele was blown to pieces, Herbert let out a sigh of relief.

Then, without waiting for Qin Ran and Pierre to inquire, he lit the inscription that he copied earlier with the kerosene lamp in his hand.

This action made Qin Ran and Pierre more and more puzzled.

"We were all wrong!"

"There is no such 'weapon' here!"

"From beginning to end, that 'weapon' is in the hands of the night monster!"

Herbert took a deep breath and said slowly.

"What?!"

Qin Ran and Pierre exclaimed at the same time.
