Volume 19, Chapter 248: Creatures Shining Like Gold
"It's really a secret door." After the bookshelf was raised, Su Lun was surprised and walked to the door behind the bookshelf and touched the equally gorgeous door.
I said as I walked to the door and started studying the doorknob, "Remember that noisy room over there?"
Su Lun nodded, and then asked: "Is there any problem?"
"There are six giant magic energy conversion devices in that room, and the magic power output is at least enough to support the normal operation of a medium-sized magic energy city. Do you think it is possible that there is only one study room in a place equipped with such large equipment?"
Su Lun shook his head quickly, and then said: "Having such a large piece of equipment means there must be a lot of things down there."
I nodded and said, "Yes, but before that we have to open this door. Do you know how to pick locks?"
Generally, guides often need to take tourists to and from places with mechanisms and ruins, so the two skills of mechanism learning and lock picking are almost necessary skills. There are very few players who are guides who don't know these things.
Sure enough, Su Lun immediately took out a small bag after I asked, and then said: "This is my specialty."
Although Su Lun was very confident when he said that this was his specialty, the facts proved that the door in front of him was not an ordinary thing, eh... at least the door lock was not an ordinary thing. Su Lun tried his advanced lock-picking skills on this door more than thirty times, but in the end, the door looked exactly like it should, with no intention of opening it at all. When Su Lun failed to open the door after trying it a few times at first, he thought it was because he was unlucky and encountered a small probability problem. After seven or eight attempts in a row failed, he began to think that this was a high-end door lock, so the failure rate was a bit high. But after he opened it more than twenty times, sweat began to appear on his forehead. As for now, if I don't do something about him, he will explode.
"Okay, I'll do it." Pulling away Su Lun, who was breathing extremely heavily, I walked directly to the door and pressed Eternity on the keyhole of the door lock, and then I saw Eternity slowly transforming into The liquid flowed into the door lock. After about a few seconds, eternity flowed out of the door lock again, and my expression changed.
Su Lun originally thought that I would open the door easily, but when he saw that my expression turned very strange after struggling a few times, he immediately realized that I was also in trouble.
"President Ziri? Can't you open it too?"
I nodded and said, "Even if you call in all the mechanical experts from all over the world, they still won't be able to open this lock."
"Ah?" Su Lun didn't hear the implication of my words at all. Instead, he looked at me in surprise and asked, "Is this lock a divine weapon?"
I patted his shoulder and said, "It's not your fault that you couldn't open that lock before. It's just that the owner here is too cunning."
Su Lun was confused by my words and had no idea what I meant, but just when he was about to ask me, I turned around and opened the door. However, the way I open the door is not to push it, but to pull it. Yes, this ordinary-looking hinged door is actually a Japanese-style horizontal sliding door, and the keyhole on this door is simply a disguise. That lock was indeed a real lock, and its structure was quite complex, but with Su Lun's lock-picking skills, he could actually open it long ago. However, because the door opens laterally, this 'bolt' type lock is simply useless. Regardless of whether its 'latch' pin is in a pop-up state or a retracted state, it actually has no effect on the opening and closing of the door. Because of this, we struggled with the door lock for a long time but found nothing, because it was not the lock that fixed the door. Not to mention that we were just trying to open the lock. Even if we removed the whole door, the door still could not be opened. open. As for the fact that I was able to open the door in the end, it was because after Eternal entered the door, I discovered that there were many gaps inside the door, and there were many complicated mechanisms sandwiched in them. These complex mechanisms are the real devices that lock the door, and their opening method is not to use keys at all, but to use a special magic circle to identify the magic input by outsiders. This door can only be opened through a special set of magic changes.
Of course, Eternity cannot come up with the special magic rules to activate the mechanism, but Eternity has no intention of looking for the password. Just like when I dismantled the table and found the last lever to activate the mechanism, Yongheng ran directly under the door and cut off the few metal bars that fixed the door. Without these metal bars, even if the door lock mechanism is not activated, the door can still be opened.
"Damn, it's actually like this. I thought my skill was malfunctioning!" Su Lun finally breathed a sigh of relief after figuring out how this skill works. To be honest, this was the first time that he had lost face like this in front of a customer. He had opened more complicated machine locks before, but he didn't expect to be hit by a fake lock today.
This door with a camouflaged keyhole is actually not as thin as previously thought. Because what we saw after the bookshelf was removed was a wooden door with exquisite carvings, we were accustomed to thinking that it was a hinged door that was pushed inward or opened outward. However, in real life After opening the door, we discovered that not only was the door a horizontal sliding door, but the carved wooden door panel was actually just a decorative panel. The wooden door panel is actually only one centimeter thick. The back part is a layer of steel plate three centimeters thick. Behind the steel plate are several layers of intersecting steel bars. The magic identification door lock is installed in the middle of these steel bars. There are three more layers behind the steel bars. Centimeter thick steel plate. It can be said that this kind of door is quite strong for a place like this. After all, this is underground, and large equipment generally cannot enter. Without large equipment, usually no one can force the door to break. After all, not everyone can. There are sharp weapons like eternity.
After passing through the door, we found that there was only a two-meter-long passage in the back. After walking through it, we turned left and there was a staircase going down. After walking down the stairs, which was more than ten meters long, we entered a large room. This room is decorated in almost the same style as the study above, but this is not a study, but a real library. In addition to the huge bookshelves neatly arranged along the surrounding walls of the entire room, there are also dozens of rows of double-sided bookshelves placed in the middle of the room. Without exception, these bookshelves are filled with various types of books, and the number is simply larger than the collection of books in small libraries in ordinary guild cities.
The staircase we entered is only one of the entrances to this room. There are three other doors in this small library. Two of the doors are on the same floor as the stairs we came down from, but they are on two different walls. There is also a door in a strange position. This door is built above one of the other two doors, and there are neither escalators nor steps outside that door. If you want to go up, you may have to find a ladder or fly up directly.
"Three doors, which way should we go first?" Su Lun asked, looking at the three doors in the room.
"You wait for me here first, and I'll go up and take a look at the door."
"OK."
After explaining Su Lun, I released a lot of Death Guards to stand by here. If I need to explore the passage above, as the connection point of multiple passages, someone must guard this place. Otherwise, if I enter a certain passage, the owner here will be here. Another passage has left, didn't we just miss it?
The door above is only four meters high from the ground. For me, this height is not a problem at all. I just jumped to the door, but there was no place to stand here, so I had to reach out and grab the trim on the top of the door. Fortunately, European-style door frames have a very wide edge. As long as your hands are strong enough, you can hang yourself on it.
After I stabilized my body, I grabbed the door handle with my other hand and turned it, only to find that the door was locked. I asked Yongheng to try it again. This time, I did not encounter a disguised lock, just a simple mechanical lock, which was easily opened.
After opening the door, I stretched my head and took a look inside. As a result, Su Lun saw me sticking my head into the room from below, and then he saw me suddenly closing the door with a bang, and then leaping from the door with a leap. down. Su Lun, who was confused, hadn't even seen me land when he suddenly saw that the door on the top was blown into pieces of wood flying in the sky with a bang. At the same time, a red The streamer also flew out of the door and directly hit the opposite wall. Then with a bang, a large hole was opened in the wall that was at least two to three meters in diameter and two meters deep.
After the explosion over there, I just landed, but I didn't stay on the ground. I just touched the ground lightly and flew up to the door again, and then dived in. Su Lun was very curious when he saw me rushing in again, but the door was on top and he couldn't get in at all. Being more than four meters tall is not a problem for me, but he doesn't have that jumping ability. Of course, although Su Lun couldn't jump four meters high, humans have never dominated the world with physical strength, so when he found that he couldn't get up, he immediately started looking around, and then he quickly found a reading table, and followed He quickly pushed the table over and took a bunch of books from the bookshelf and piled them on the table to put his feet on it. Based on the physical fitness of the players in the game, if there is a table over one meter high and a stack of books over one meter high, it will be much easier to climb up to the four-meter-high door.
Just when Su Lun piled up the books and climbed up to try to reach the top door, he suddenly heard a loud bang from the door, and then he saw me falling backwards from inside the door. It flew out and knocked over a row of bookshelves with a bang, then fell to the opposite wall, then bounced back and fell to the ground again.
Seeing that I was knocked out, Su Lun stopped climbing out of the door. He turned around and jumped down to help me. However, before he could come over, I turned over and jumped up. Then I pointed at the door and cursed: " Damn, he’s so big, isn’t he? Wait until I call my brother and let’s see who is bigger.” As I said that, I touched the ground where I fell, flew up again, and then got into the door.
Su Lun saw that I had gone in again, so he had to turn around and climb up again, but before he could go up, he heard a rumble of crashing sounds from inside, followed by waves of monster roars, and then he One hand had already reached the door above, and when he was about to climb up, he suddenly heard a bang, and the row of walls next to him suddenly exploded, and the bookshelves against the wall were also blown away. , and suddenly the room was filled with scattered pieces of paper, various wood chips, and bricks.
It wasn't just the entire wall that flew into the room with the loud noise. Among the pile of ruins, Su Lun also saw the tip of a claw as thick as a bucket and about one meter long. The tip of this claw is very similar to a human finger. Except that the nails are sharper and sharper, it basically looks like an enlarged human finger. Of course, if this is really a human finger, it goes without saying that the creature inside must be a Titan. However, Suellen did not think that the creature inside was a Titan, because although the finger looked like a human finger, its surface was covered with scales. Titans don't have scales, which is obviously wrong.
With doubts about what the creature inside was, Su Lun jumped down from the table and stretched his head to look over there through the big hole in the wall.
With just one glance, Su Lun was completely shocked by the creature in front of him. The thing in front of him was a very large creature. He had known this for a long time, but he did not expect that it would be such a beautiful creature. No, beautiful is not quite the right word to describe it. The body structure of the creature in front of you is quite complex, but it is easy to describe its appearance, because in reality there is a building that is very similar to this creature, and this building is called the Sphinx.
The Sphinx in Egypt can be said to be a world-famous building. There are probably not many people in the world who have never heard of it. The creature in front of you is somewhat similar to the Sphinx, but of course it is just in structure. Similarly, there is actually a big difference in appearance.
The body structure of this thing is indeed that of the Sphinx, but the Sphinx has a lion's body and a human head, while the creature in front of him has a dragon's body and a lion's head. That's right, it's the dragon's body. A thick, muscular and streamlined chest structure, a slender and slightly slender waist, a pair of huge wings folded on the back, four thick and powerful giant claws covered with scales, and of course, the super-thread on the back. A long tail with a bone ax at the end. In addition to the characteristics of these giant dragons, this creature also has a lion head that is very proportional to its body. This head is in the shape of a male lion's head, but it is definitely much larger than the lion's head in nature. After all, the dragon's body is It can grow to nearly a hundred meters, and the guy in front of him actually reached more than a hundred meters like Lucky and Plague. If such a big body had a head of one meter in diameter, it would be almost like having no head at all.
This guy's head retains the shape of a lion's head, even the majestic brown hair of a male lion is intact, and this head seems to have some artistic processing based on the shape of a real lion. For example, this guy's canine teeth are actually as long as those of a saber-toothed tiger. Although they are not as long as the saber-toothed tiger's saber teeth, they still stick out of the mouth and look quite majestic. Also, the proportions of this guy's head seem to be slightly more slender than a lion's head, and it looks much more beautiful than a real lion. Finally, there is a huge transparent crystal standing there like a third eye in the middle of this guy's forehead, and this crystal is always emitting beautiful white light.
In fact, if this shape alone is not enough to make people feel how beautiful this creature is, after all, his current appearance is just more majestic. What really surprised Su Lun was this guy's appearance. This creature is actually golden from head to tail. With golden brown fur and golden scales, apart from the crystal on his forehead, the teeth in his mouth, the skin and flesh in his mouth, and his eyes, there is no other color on this guy's body. 'Yes. If this guy doesn't open his eyes or open his mouth, you can basically think of it as a giant gold sculpture, except for the diamond-like thing on his head. No, gold doesn't sparkle like that. This guy's scales are like golden ceramics, and his hair is like golden threads. Thanks to this being in an underground environment, only the magic lamp provides lighting. If it is in a clear sky Under this, it is estimated that most people can't look at him at all because he is too dazzling.
"Wow, isn't this a monster turned from gold?" Looking at the giant beast in front of him, Su Lun was so excited that he didn't know what to say. Although this thing was not made of gold, and even if it was made of gold, Su Lun would definitely not be able to get a single cent from it, but he couldn't help but be excited. After all, it was a giant beast as big as a mountain of gold.
"Is it a Chimera transformed from a dragon? The magic defense is quite high."
While Su Lun was looking around, the monster and I were temporarily separated, but I was not standing there alone. There are two giant beasts on my left and right, one is a tank and the other is a steel tooth.
After hearing my words, Su Lun noticed that there seemed to be a wound at the base of the wings on the side of the giant beast. However, seeing the golden blood flowing out of the body made Su Lun stunned for a while. To be honest, if this thing wasn't so intimidating, Su Lun would have really wanted to run over and get some of his blood at the risk of death. That's golden blood. Even if it wasn't gold, just based on its color, Su Lun believed that this thing must have some other uses, and more importantly, it must be very valuable.
"Hey, big guy. Can you talk?" Standing on the tank's head, I shouted to the monster over there.
The monster turned its head and licked its wound first, and then with a flash of golden light, the wound healed without leaving any trace. After 'licking' the wound, the guy turned his head and stared at me. After a while, just when I thought he couldn't speak, this guy suddenly spoke, but the sound sounded like thunder, and ash was literally falling from the roof.
"Who are you? An intruder."
"I tell you who I am, can you understand?"
That guy obviously had a high IQ and understood what I meant when he heard what I said. He has never left here, so he knows nothing about the outside world, so no matter who I say I am, it is actually the same as saying nothing to him, because he has no way of identifying it.
"Then let's rephrase the question. What are you doing here?"
"It's only fair that each person has one question." After I finished speaking, I looked at this guy and waited until he nodded before asking, "What kind of creature are you? Chimera?"
"I am……"
