Chapter 226 Okay, There Is No Way Out Now

I don't know whose attack had an effect, and wisps of crimson magic power overflowed from under the plate of the terrifying armor.

The thick plate armor lost its magical support, and the still swinging limbs fell to the ground with a clanking sound.

"Dead?"

After a while, Thorin raised his head and asked his companion.

He was also holding a pair of boots from the terrifying armor in his hands, and the breastplate on his body had several scratches from the spikes on it.

Putting down the weapon in his hand, Karl stepped forward to check it, and then nodded.

"It should be dead, phew~, things made by giants are always more difficult to deal with than conventional ones."

These words resonated with everyone, and Scorpion even kicked the breastplate of the terrifying armor to express his emotions.

As the creations of giants, drow still have some emotions towards giants.

It is said that more than a hundred years ago, the Drow tribe would specially organize tribesmen to hunt the lone giants wandering on the surface.

Of course, these things were only what Karl heard from the movie.

And Ying heard what the elders in her tribe said.

"What should we do next? Continue to explore? Even with such a level of security outside such a room, it's hard for me to imagine what it would be like to store treasures or important items."

After transforming from a black bear back into a human body, Hope clearly expressed his unfavorable attitude towards the follow-up of this adventure.

"Well, so we can explore slowly. If we really encounter a problem that we can't get around anyway, then let's go back. Don't take this adventure as a big deal. This is just something I created to satisfy my curiosity. adventure."

After comforting everyone, Karl walked to the door and quietly stuck his head out.

Outside the house was the same as what he had observed when using his psychic detection, it was a huge corridor.

Lighting devices produced using the Immortal Bright Flame spell are hung on the walls. Sneaking and invisibility in the illuminated area will reveal the prototype.

Generally speaking, this building is like an ordinary human noble lord's castle, the only difference is that the model in front of you is larger.

It is said that the trend is reincarnation, and Karl didn’t know if the similarity in front of him was reincarnation in some sense.

"Put away that plate armor, let's go out and take a look!"

The materials for making the horror armor are also quite good. The mithril and fine gold that can be extracted from the materials are basically worth the price of admission.

But people are always greedy, and what Carl wants is—more.

Walking out of the room, the dazzling firelight illuminated the surroundings with almost no shadows.

Karl suspected that this was to prevent the elf rebels from assassinating giant dignitaries. After all, the elf rogues were also famously sharp in the past.

Both sides of the corridor seemed to lead to different places. Feeling the flow of air, Karl immediately chose the left side.

Accustomed to looking down at others, Karl felt a little awkward about the huge scene around him. Walking in this overly wide corridor, he actually felt like he had returned to his childhood when he was running around at home with his two short legs.

But soon, Karl woke up from his memories.

Because a metal door reinforced with mechanisms and arcane locks appeared in front of them.

No matter how you look at it, this should be a sign that what is behind the door is very important.

"Humph! I never caught up with the good times before. Today, let the souls of those giants see the power of the Shaling Warriors!"

Rubbing his palms together quickly, Karl removed the power armor from his arms and helmet, put his ear against the mechanical door, and cracked the mechanism.

To open this kind of mechanism, both the mechanical and magical locks need to be unlocked.

The things sealed in the room are likely to be stored in a special space similar to a dimensional bag. If the cracking goes wrong, the treasures inside may be scattered to the star realm.

Although Karl has accumulated a lot of wealth in Khorvaire, there is a difference between the hard-earned money he earned and the windfall he picked up for free.

With a "click" sound, Karl quickly left the door, and then released the magic-dispelling spell on it.

As the effect of the arcane lock was lifted, the mechanism on the door began to rotate rapidly, and then suddenly bounced open.

Karl and Bain, who were standing at the front, closed the door as quickly as possible. Bain frantically screwed the door shut, while Karl re-released the arcane lock on it.

In the room behind the door, standard armors that were just like the terrifying armor stood neatly in the direction of the door. As the door opened just now, they seemed to be reactivated robots, and the inside of the armor gradually condensed. Scarlet magic.

"Run! We've stoked a hornet's nest!"

While these guys hadn't fully woken up yet, everyone immediately ran quickly in the direction they came from.

There was a clanking sound from the door behind him. The heavy metal door deformed rapidly under the constant knocking and was about to break open.

However, when Karl and others ran to the door of the room just now, they found that the original wooden door had been crushed and replaced by an unknown-thick iron plate mixed with fine gold.

Although the remains of the wooden door prevented the iron plate from completely closing to the ground, the slight gap could not even allow Karl to insert his fingers.

"Damn it, I fell into the giant's trap!"

Cursing, Karl immediately led everyone to escape into the passage on the other side.

However, the room on the other side also looked like a mechanical door. Carl's psychic power could not see through the thick metal wall to see what was inside, but according to the evil taste of the trap designer, Carl felt that there would also be a large group of terrifying armors inside.

Because if it were him, he would do the same.

He now suspected that the entrance they came in was reserved by the giant for the elf rebels, in order to block them here, otherwise the exhaust port of the fan would not have been left until this time period, and it should be specially made.

Carl could of course summon the mecha here and then fight those terrifying armors, but with the retreat cut off, he had to prioritize the safety of his companions.

Shadow and Scorpion were also using psychic power to explore the situation everywhere. Although their psychic power was a little weaker than Carl's, it was barely enough.

Just when those terrifying armors were about to break through the iron gate, Scorpion suddenly shouted loudly: "Carl! Something is wrong here!"

Carl, who had originally prepared to fight one against a hundred, immediately released his spiritual energy in the direction of Scorpion. Behind the seemingly ordinary wall, a door that could accommodate a giant appeared in Carl's perception.

The door was obviously mixed with fine gold, and Carl's energy could not continue to explore the back.

He elbowed the wall, and the rubble fell, and the metal door appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing the door lock, Carl was slightly stunned, and then turned his head and shouted to Hope: "Take out the fine gold key!"

Quickly understanding Carl's meaning, Hope immediately inserted the fine gold key into the door lock.

Turning the key, the door lock made a mechanical sound.

Without considering whether there was a trap behind this door, Carl directly opened the metal door, revealing the tunnel behind.

"Quick! Go in!"

Everyone entered in a line, and Carl pulled out the key and finally entered the metal door.

As the door closed, a whole team of horror armors rushed out of the metal door.

The pattern on the fine gold key was still emitting ripples like breathing.

But I don’t know if it was Carl’s illusion, he always felt that the ripple frequency of this thing had become a little faster.

“Let’s put this thing outside for the time being. It looks like it should be the master key to various secret passages in this ruins.”

Just after taking a few breaths, the corridor outside had already heard the friction sound of the armor plates when the horror armor was moving.

The sound was dense, and everyone could imagine what the situation outside was like just by thinking.

“Okay, now we have to explore forward. We have no way out. The outside is full of candlesticks made by the Eternal Mingyan. It’s impossible for Ying and I to sneak back, and there is also that iron plate blocking it.

These giants are really rich. A broken mechanism is actually made of metal mixed with fine gold. No wonder the world’s fine gold production is not very high. It seems that more than half of it has been mined by these guys, right?”

Twisting his neck, Scorpion looked a little anxious.

She didn't complain about Carl, who caused all this.

"It seems that we can only move forward. I'll go ahead."

After realizing that the road back was blocked, Bain immediately entered the state.

The ranger's perception was fully opened, and he began to explore forward in the noise made by the terrifying armor outside.

However, the giants probably didn't think that the elves or other creatures could find this secret passage. After walking forward for a long time, there was not only no mechanism in this secret passage, but also no protection at all.

I don't know how long I walked, and finally, another door mixed with a lot of fine gold appeared in front.

Carl stepped forward to open the door, but when he pushed it, the metal door didn't move at all.

He thought that this door was also hidden in the wall, so he called Bain and Thorin and pushed it with all his strength.

"Cara Cara"

Accompanied by the sound of stones rubbing against each other, the door of this secret passage was pushed open little by little.

Carl also discovered the reason why he couldn't push it open just now - the other side of this door was hidden behind a stone statue, and they pushed the stone statue to open the door.

Thinking that this secret passage was built by giants, and giants generally have large bodies and at least 20 points of strength, Carl was relieved.

The three of them together are probably equivalent to an ordinary giant with incomplete strength attributes.

"If I had known, I would have summoned the mecha directly just now. This place can accommodate it."

Shaking his sore arms, Carl whispered unconvinced.

"Okay, I know you are powerful, use the secret eye to see the situation outside, don't run out recklessly this time!"

Patting Carl's head, Hope sternly warned Carl.

"Got it, got it! I didn't expect that the giants at that time would have so many tricks! Leave it to me next!"

Taking out the secret eye mechanism from the dimension bag, Carl threw it out along the opened gap, then controlled the mechanism to become optically invisible and took off for reconnaissance.

Outside the secret passage, towering stone pillars are placed on both sides, and a huge long table runs across the hall.

The walls on both sides are covered with various stone carvings, and the door to the secret passage is hidden behind one of the stone carvings.

Judging from the specifications, this should be the hall of a palace.
