Chapter 47 Relics
Since we passed that corner, the wind has become stronger and stronger. The reason is very clear to us, that is, the passage continues to narrow. The air flow in the entire channel should be constant. The channel in the area we just entered is very wide, so the airflow can advance in a relatively gentle way. Although the wind there is still very strong, it does not cause any real damage, but The passage here continues to narrow. To ensure the air flow, the only way to speed up the flow is to speed up the flow, so the narrower the place, the stronger the wind.
After passing that bend and advancing for almost a kilometer, the passage had turned into a circular pipe with a diameter of two meters. The airflow here would actually directly reduce blood pressure when blowing on the body. Ying read the system prompts and found that the blood loss was caused by the wind. Although the blood loss was drop by drop, there was a long interval, so the decline was very fast. Among the six of us, I am the only one with the highest defense, and the other five all suffered from blood loss. As a last resort, we had to adjust the order, and I stood in the front and led everyone forward. But despite using such a helpless method, after moving forward for a while, even I started to lose blood. Fortunately, there are no players in front of me, and those messy things will not fly out to hurt people, otherwise I will It’s hard to guarantee that we won’t be kicked out together.
There are leveling areas at intervals throughout the entire passage, all of which are wind blind spots like the one we encountered just now. All the monsters in the passage are concentrated in these leveling areas, and there is nothing at all in other areas. Although Joan of Arc has followed us all the way here, her mood is very contradictory. Joan of Arc's purpose is not to go with us to get the final mission, she just wants to find a place to level up. The leveling points in the passage are just like what she said. The further forward, the higher the experience value, but the monster's combat power has not changed. In other words, the further forward, the more convenient it is to level up. But now Joan of Arc is constantly hesitating. Every time she reaches a leveling point, she fantasizes about whether the next point will be better, but at the same time she is worried about whether there is a next point and whether she can reach the next point. point. As a result, she followed us to four or five leveling points with this ambivalent mentality and continued to move forward.
We passed the first five leveling points directly and quickly. The monsters here are very slow. If you don't want to fight them, you can just run over. But when we reached the sixth leveling point, we couldn't help but stop because the legendary treasure house appeared here.
It is said that there were many treasure troves in the areas we passed through at the beginning, and of course they were all taken away by those who discovered them first. Joan of Arc and the area we are currently in are completely virgin territory. No one has been here before us, so there must be something in the treasure house. This devil has always been like a wild goose, and leaving the treasure house without a look is worse than a cat scratching his heart. Besides, there's nothing dangerous about it.
The stone man guards outside the treasure house are all very weak. It may be considered normal difficulty for players of level 600 to 700, but for us guild elites, they are all garbage. Zhenhong wiped out all the stone men by herself and waited there. As soon as one was refreshed, she would kill one while the others opened the door.
The door to the treasure house is a sliding door that opens from left to right as when you came in, and there is no chain at all. It opens as soon as you pull it. The environment inside the door is made of stone just like the outside. The difference is that there is no wind here. There is a stone platform in the center of the room. A piece of knight's armor was placed on it. My own auxiliary profession happens to have an appraiser, and after a simple appraisal, the attributes came out. The overall properties of this armor are good, but it is useless to the five of us, so I generously gave it to Joan of Arc. French people and Chinese people have different habits, so Joan of Arc did not refuse. Instead, he accepted the gift generously. Europeans generally don't treat others politely about gifts. They accept them if they like them. There is nothing to hide. This is a cultural difference.
Out of this leveling area. The wind was stronger in front, but we moved faster because I thought of a good way. I used my own mercury shield to form a streamlined mercury shield, and then the six of us stuck together and walked forward in a row. The shape of the mercury shield can reduce frontal resistance, and there will be no gaps after all six of us are covered inside, which further reduces wind resistance, and the mercury shield also solves the problem of them always losing blood. With me supporting this protective cover, the five people behind will not be exposed to the wind, so there is no wind resistance at all. I myself only had to withstand a slightly lower resistance than before by myself to protect the six of us, and there were five of them behind me pushing me forward, which meant that the five people shared the resistance that none of them could reach, and the speed Get up soon of course.
The next treasure trove is almost full of all kinds of equipment, and the patterns are in a mess. We will keep the ones that are useful for ourselves, and give the ones that are not useful to Joan of Arc. Judging from her appearance, the equipment in the guild is probably in short supply. After passing through countless leveling areas, we went to get the items in the treasure house as before. Due to the previous situation. Now we have lost interest in the treasure trove. So I only asked one person to get the gold coins, while everyone else was out leveling and playing. Each of these leveling areas is larger than the other. This time this one is larger than all the previous leveling areas, so there is no problem at all for so many of us to level up separately.
While everyone was marveling at how weak the monsters here were but with such high experience points, gold coins suddenly ran out of the treasure house. "Ziri, come here and take a look."
"What's wrong?" I casually killed the monster in front of me and asked as I walked around.
"This baby is a little weird."
"Strange? What a strange method?"
"I can't tell. You'll know when you come over and take a look."
Soon we all got into the treasure house together. In order to prevent the monsters spawned outside from running in, we temporarily blocked the door. This room is no different from the previous one, but the object on the ground in the middle is a bit strange.
"This seems to be some kind of machine, right?" Although Ying doesn't understand machines, he can still tell.
Hongyue circled around this thing and finally stopped on the back of the thing and said: "It feels like some kind of magical machine. There is also a power pipeline connection here, which seems to be the same as the current standard of our guild." .”
"How is this possible?" I also walked around to Hongyue, and Hongyue immediately pointed out to me the location of the interface. I just took a quick look and confirmed what Hongyue said. This is the current power interface standard of our guild. Its source is the demon dolls that were originally brought to our guild. Many of the technologies in our guild were derived from the golems I brought back from Switzerland. Including that standard power interface technology. The temple in Switzerland was said to be the Temple of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, but it was actually a super research center completed by the god-level magician Jia Ha under the cover of the goddess. Lunde, the current chief NPC research expert of our guild, is one of Jiaha's disciples, so everything he produces has been brought under Jiaha's technical standards. You must know that it is very rare for two sets of technical standards to coincide with each other. It is so rare that we can almost think it is impossible to happen.
Except for Joan of Arc, everyone here is the elite of our guild, and everyone is not an idiot. After seeing this thing, Zhenhong was the first to say: "Is this passage another base for Jiaha?"
Jin Coin said half-jokingly: "Don't tell me this passage is a wind tunnel."
I reached out and touched the power interface on this machine. "Judging from the power pipeline interface, this system is definitely the same as the general standard of our guild. Apart from being the work of Jiaha or his disciples, I can't think of any other reason for this coincidence."
Eagle suddenly said: "Don't you think this thing looks familiar?"
"Looks familiar?" I looked carefully at the machine in front of me. To be honest, the shape of this thing is really like a car engine, but it is a little larger. Suddenly it dawned on me. "This is the magic compressor of the magic crystal cannon. No, it's wrong. It feels different."
Zhenhong pointed to the next special part and said, "No need to guess, this is the prototype machine."
"Prototype machine?" I quickly went up and took a look. The part looked very familiar. It was indeed a special part of the early magic compressor that had been improved. It was no longer available in later versions.
The legendary magician Jiaha has always been one of the NPCs our guild is looking for. We have been looking for this guy as early as when Lunde joined our guild, but we didn't expect that his works would actually appear in France. And it's actually an early version.
Ying held his cheek and thought while saying: "If my guess is correct, the treasure house at the next leveling point may contain more important machine parts. Our mission scroll says that we have to complete the mission when we reach the end of the passage. If it is really what I think, then the prize placed at the end of the final tunnel must be a super magical device that can make objects as big as Essinger jump into space."
Hongyue said: "The easiest way to prove your words is to rush to the next passage to see if you can find more powerful machine parts."
"What about this?" Jin Coin asked.
"Bring it with you."
Joan of Arc saw us walking out and quickly followed us, but now she was filled with questions, so she quickly asked them on the way. "Ziri, what is that thing we just found? You guys have been talking for a long time, but I still don't understand it!"
I explained patiently: "The thing we just discovered is a magic compressor. Its function can be understood from the name."
"You mean this thing can compress magic power?"
"Yes, but what it compresses is not the general magic power, but the magic power in the magic crystal. You know the magic crystal, right?"
"Of course." Joan of Arc said seriously: "After all, I am also the president of a guild. How could I not know this?"
"That's easy to explain." I continued: "The magic compressor compresses the magic power extracted from the magic crystal directly into magic cannonballs. This kind of cannonball is very unstable. Once it encounters an impact, it will cause a huge explosion. The explosion is extremely powerful. You must have seen a magic crystal cannon, right?"
"I've seen it before. There are eight in St. George." Joan of Arc is not a benzene. When I asked about the magic crystal cannon, she immediately responded. "Could the shells fired from the magic crystal cannon be compressed by this thing? So this is a shell-making machine?"
"You can understand it this way, but it's not what you think. In fact, the magic crystal cannon does not need to be loaded with shells. Its shells are temporarily compressed before firing. This magic compressor is installed on the cannon. , it can be said that it is the core component of the magic crystal cannon. How big the magic crystal cannon can be made and how powerful the shell can be all depends on its quality. "
Joan of Arc asked in surprise: "Then as long as you have this thing, doesn't it mean you have a magic crystal cannon?"
"Not entirely. After all, the magic crystal cannon is not a slingshot for children. Although this is the core component. But not everyone can make the other parts. Generally, it is in vain if the guilds get them. Without supporting equipment, just this thing is there It’s also useless.”
"How could such a powerful device appear here?"
"Then we don't know."
Joan of Arc suddenly asked again: "Then who are the Jiaha and Lunde you just mentioned?"
"Lunde is an NPC necromancer who likes to study various devices based on magic crystal power. The most important one is the golem. Do you know the golem? It is something similar to a robot, except that its power is magic crystal. The stone's wisdom comes from the magic circle. In short, it is a very complex advanced man-made object. It can fight independently. As long as simple and general orders are given, they can automatically judge and execute them."
"Does your guild have such a thing?"
It’s no secret that there are golems in our guild. There is nothing to hide, so I said generously: "Yes, I brought a few with me. If you want to see them, I will show them to you in the next leveling area later."
"It's really amazing!" Jeanne sighed. "You said that Jiaha was Lunde's master at first. Could it be that he also joined your guild?"
"Is that possible?" I said helplessly: "To be honest, we have been looking for him, but there has been no news. Almost all the magic mechanisms in this game are developed based on his original research, so It is very important to find this guy. As far as I know, this guy is probably hiding somewhere and is afraid to come out. Many gods in the game are looking for this guy."
"What an exaggerated character."
"It's not just an exaggeration, it may even be just a legendary figure. We have discovered a lot of his relics so far, but this guy has no clues at all. His apprentice Lunde has become a necromancer, and this old guy probably also has Tens of thousands of years old, whether he is still alive or not is a question."
"I really hope I can see what such a powerful NPC looks like."
"Maybe you really have a chance to see it." Hongyue said: "Since Jiahadi's works were found in this passage, it is very likely that he is here. Or at least he has been here before."
Zhenhong suddenly reminded us: "The new leveling point has arrived."
Although the wind in these later passages was getting stronger and stronger, the distance between the various leveling points was getting smaller and smaller. This time, I only walked less than a hundred meters to the next leveling point. We didn't even bother to worry about the monsters, and just bypassed the slow monsters and rushed into the treasure house. Everyone looked excitedly at the shining silver thing in the center of the treasure house.
"Sure enough, it is this thing." Hongyue looked like she had known this before.
"It seems that Jiaha may really be here. At least it is certain that this is the place where he built it, otherwise this thing would not have come out." Zhenhong said.
"That's possible." Jin Coin said: "Don't you remember that people like Lunde can also build? Can't this be the research base of another apprentice of Jiaha?"
Our words to each other over there confused Jeanne next to her. She was obviously worried but had no idea what was in front of her. To her, it was just a cube of metal with many holes and cracks. Joan of Arc saw that we seemed to have completely forgotten about her, so she couldn't help but interrupt and asked: "What on earth is this that you are so excited about?"
Only then did I remember that there was a Joan of Arc next to me who didn't understand the situation at all, and quickly explained: "Sorry, we are a little too excited. This thing can be said to be a demon doll. Or it can be said to be the skeleton of a demon doll."
"Is this the golem? Why is it square?"
"This is the skeleton of the demon doll, not the whole thing, and this is in a folded form." I reached out from the Phoenix Dragon Space and took out a magic crystal that was about to run out of magic power. Then I walked to the thing and searched on it. I found a familiar mechanism. This is a small device. I put my finger into the hole and clicked it lightly. There was a click and the metal in front of it bounced up.
Joan of Arc was surprised when she saw that I actually opened a lid and came up to look inside carefully. The lid was full of golden machine parts. Although she saw it, she had no idea what these things were for. I placed the magic stone into the center of a metal ring. As soon as the magic crystal was in place, it immediately lit up with a faint fluorescence. I took out my hand and put the lid back on and then said to everyone: "Stand back. Maybe this thing is still set in attack mode. The crystal stone just now should be enough for him to launch an attack, but not more than five minutes. Be careful. Just in case."
After we backed away, the metal object in the center suddenly made a sound of metal friction, and then two metal rods suddenly popped out from both sides of the object, and then the metal rods were bent several times and connected to form legs. Suddenly, two arms-like objects popped out of the cube metal block in the center, and then a head also popped out. Within ten seconds, this thing was fully unfolded. The originally huddled metal block had now turned into a shining silver metal skull, with red light flashing in the two sunken eyes.
The metal skeleton stepped down from the stage. It was at least two and a half meters tall, much taller than a human being. The skull-shaped golem looked around and then walked towards me. Joan of Arc who was standing next to me was so frightened that she quickly stepped back, but the golem knelt down on one leg more than one meter in front of me. "The magical puppet is on standby. The owner's information has been recorded. Please give the order."
"Follow and standby."
"As ordered." The demon stood up and stood aside without moving again.
I looked at the others and said, "Look, this is a specially left gift. All his information has been washed away. It is completely prepared to be given away."
"That's good. If something like this moves in such a narrow place, we may not be able to stop it."
Joan of Arc walked to the demon doll and took a closer look: "Is this thing so powerful?"
I said: "The intelligence is a little low, and it has no skills or magic, but this thing has great power and high defense, and it can resist many types of magic. It has very strong frontal combat effectiveness. It is best not to encounter them in a narrow space. Let's deal with it." This kind of thing is usually destroyed by recording powerful magic from a distance, and most people can't resist it in close combat."
As I was talking, the golem suddenly moved on its own, which shocked Jeanne. "Master, the magic crystal core power is exhausted. There is at most three minutes of power left. Please give me instructions."
I reached out and opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and took out a complete magic crystal. "Put this on."
"Yes." The golem can still maintain power for one minute after taking out the magic crystal, so they can replace the magic crystal themselves. This guy quickly replaced the magic crystal and then handed me the magic crystal without energy.
I put away the magic crystal and said to it, "Do you know where this is?"
"This is the secret laboratory of Great Magician Jiaha."
Ying and the others immediately gathered around. "Oh my god! This guy's records haven't been wiped out. He even knows where this is."
Hongyue said directly to the devil: "Do you know where the end of the passage is?"
"It's the main research room and experimental product warehouse."
"Haha, I'm getting rich." Jin Coin danced and said, "Jiaha's legacy! We are now prosperous!"
