Chapter 115: Scattering and Escape

in the underground ruins.

Roland Hill swung his long sword, brought up several luminous purple blades, and easily smashed and annihilated several of the ghosts that rushed towards him, then looked around and continued to move forward.

This is already a deep area in the ruins. A few water droplets can be heard in the dark space. The ground is also damp stone bricks, some of which are collapsed and some are broken and raised, making the aisle not so flat.

Although most of the materials in the ruins have been corrupted and broken, a small part has remained. When Roland Hill searched a previous room, he found a box of gems.

These gems and gold coins are scattered together, and the style is very different from the current one. It should be the style of the Orc Empire in the First Era. The reason why it appeared here is that the personnel in the past stored the loot here, but later forgot to take it away.

After a simple calculation, even if you take it out now, you can exchange for more than 100 extraordinary gold coins, which is a lot of income.

After putting away the gems, Roland Hill moved forward along the aisle, and then slowly heard a quarrel.

"Break this door open, and there are treasures left by our family inside." Viscount Moruo suppressed his excitement and commanded in front of a huge stone gate.

"Lord Viscount, I'm afraid this is not the same as what you said before."

Several officers stood under the huge door more than ten meters high, looking up at the closed door, which was engraved with the pattern of crying and crying skulls, which was obviously the symbol of the Quicksilver Dynasty. And looking at the gloomy magic power spilling out of the cracks in the door, the things stored in it may not be common treasures.

"Maybe we should go back and find some support. The things here are very dangerous." Several other adventurers under the door also retreated at this moment. Although they are greedy for money, they value their own lives more.

"No, just today." Viscount Moruo shook his head and explained.

"Once this ruin is opened, it will activate the self-destructing device, and in a few days, we will get nothing."

"I don't have so much spare time to prepare, wealth is right in front of you. If you help me retrieve the treasures left by the family, I promise to give you 300 extraordinary gold coins in return." He said a huge number, which is the lifetime of many ordinary adventurers. unearned wealth.

"This..." Several others hesitated, but were finally moved by the generous reward.

"Then leave it to us, but can the Viscount provide a part of the deposit first?" one of the sly adventurers asked.

"We are not like you. If you go back on it then, we will suffer a big loss."

"Oh, take it, this is all the money I have at the moment. When I return to the castle, I can give you more." After that, Viscount Moruo took out a money bag, which contained extraordinary gold coins and broken gems. There are also a few jewels found in the ruins.

After taking an inventory, it was worth about 50 extraordinary gold coins. The adventurers looked at each other, nodded, and started to act.

They first asked a few people under the door to retreat, and then one took off the things in the backpack, and then took out the bottles and cans in their waists and pockets, and prepared them on the spot.

"Is this alchemy?" Yan Liuyan couldn't help asking when he looked at this slightly familiar scene.

"Yes, this lord, although he is a half-assed person, my teacher is a mage who escaped from Luerna, and he has learned some real skills." An adventurer wearing a dark green robe squatted on the ground and quickly Shake the reagent, then add some ingredients such as glass shavings, and start a new stirring.

When a lot of air bubbles appeared in the reagent, he carefully took out the package full of black powder in the backpack, put it under the door, embedded it in the crack of the door, and then dug a small hole and put the reagent in it.

After doing all this, he stepped back and stood up, and then backed up to dozens of meters away, only to attract tiny magic sparks, which floated leisurely towards the reagent port.

"Bang"

Like small fireworks ignited, countless small sparks flashed at the same time, followed by a dull explosion.

After the explosion, the dust settled, and the other people came out from behind the wall and searched for the smoky ruins.

The door that was originally closed was blown loose and opened a little. Although it is not big, now the remaining few people can walk in sideways.

"Okay, move on." Viscount Moruo waved his hand excitedly, and strode forward with the rest, leaning in one by one.

After all these people entered, Roland Hill walked out from the corner of the aisle and looked at the core area of ​​the ruins. She stopped under the gate, looked up at the crying skull pattern, and sighed in her heart.

According to Trinasha, this should be the symbol of the Temple of Weeping, symbolizing that the things preserved in it are dangerous and powerful, and it is a place that must be treated with care.

‘The more powerful something is, the easier it is to be accompanied by disasters and curses. ’—the motto of a certain Mercury dynasty consul.

I really don't know whether opening this place is a good thing or a bad thing, the girl shook her head lightly, then put her hand on the hilt of the sword, and walked towards the opening of the stone gate, slowly entering this dark and dark realm.

————————

Meanwhile, on the other side under the night sky.

Charan Lotte was running in the mountains under protection. In the darkness, the rugged mountain road made it difficult to escape. She tripped over tree roots and gravel from time to time, and occasionally slipped and twisted her feet.

Fortunately, the body that has been exercised will not be easily injured, but it can be said to be quite embarrassed at the moment, the boots are full of mud, and the edge of the skirt is also full of scratches and broken pieces.

"Over there!" Another shout and chase came from the distance behind him.

Voice by voice, the elite legionnaires of the empire are still in pursuit. They held up the torches and searched for the trail of Sharanrot and his party in the dark night.

"Quick, quick, quick!" they called to their companions, and then a gleaming arrow rose with a shrill whistle in the night sky.

"Damn hyena!"

Looking at the chasing soldiers who gathered again, several guards of the Netivan family spit angrily, but there was nothing they could do. They were not the opponents of these people in terms of combat power at the moment.

"No, it's not the way to go on like this." Gersmi slowed down and quickly scanned the surroundings and distance.

"We've got to figure out a way to get rid of them." He thought quickly, low, then looked up.

"The three of you are in a team and run away in different directions, so as to distract the pursuers."

"But in this case, the protective power around Miss Shalanrot will be less." The captain immediately discovered the loophole.

"In extraordinary times, you can't care about so much. If you are caught up at this time, no matter how many people protect you, it's useless. You know it." Gersmi looked directly at the captain.

The captain looked at Sharanrot and Gersmi, silent for a few seconds, and then nodded vigorously.

"Okay, let's be the bait, you take the eldest lady to a safe place." Then he turned around and waved.

"Follow the order, make a team of three and escape. If you can survive, you will meet at the southern stronghold of the Dragon's Back Mountains in three months."

"Yes!" These are the dead men of the Netivan family. Naturally, they have already made up their minds. They dispersed immediately, deliberately causing noises to attract the enemy's attention.

"This is my helmet and cape. I hope Miss Sharanrot can put it on. It's also a lot safer." The captain took off his cape and helmet.

Compared with Lottie's dress, his helmet and cape will make the girl look from the back like the team members, so as not to attract too much attention.

"Thank you." Xia Lanrote was not pretentious at this time, and accepted the cloak and armor.

"You should also pay attention to safety, and hope to see you again." She solemnly responded to the loyal guard.

"Of course, I will still live to see Miss Ewinni rebuilding the Netivan family." The captain smiled and nodded to Shalan Luotu, then ran into the night with several guards and disappeared in the dark. Deep in the forest.

Seeing Charanlot motionless, Gersmi reminded, "Miss, we should go too."

"Yeah." After speaking, Charanlot put on his helmet and cloak, and stepped into the dark woods again.
