Chapter 253 Extension
After laughing, the two suddenly fell into silence.
"Colin, the road ahead may still be dangerous. Now that we both have the credentials to go out, you can choose to leave first..." Lilian thought for a moment and then said.
"Senior Lillian..." But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Colin shaking his head.
Lilian looked at Colin with a firm face, paused slightly in her heart, and pursed her lips:
"Thank you, Junior Colin."
The sudden thank you made Colin pause in his movements, and he smiled and shook his head.
"The mentor was injured. As his student, I should naturally contribute."
Then he picked up the dry branch in his hand and continued: "What's more, if there are more dangers ahead, even if I choose to leave now, I must at least leave this branch to my senior sister."
This is what Colin is saying. Lillian is completely considering it from his perspective, so he will naturally reciprocate the favor.
What's more, he really didn't have much thought about this dry brown branch.
Saying this, Colin suddenly took out the branch with a thought in his mind.
"I haven't tried how to use this branch yet, so I need to familiarize myself with it in advance." He said to Lillian, changing the subject.
"Yeah." Lilian responded, not continuing the topic just now, but feeling a little complicated in her heart.
‘Give others a smile and they will smile back. ’
This is the family motto of the Rudolph family, a motto left by the ancestors to restrain the arrogance rooted in the blood of high elves...
Her grandfather always adhered to the first half of the family motto and taught her the same way.
But the second half of the sentence often doesn't come true as promised...
"Senior Lilian, this branch...is a little strange." But at this moment, Colin suddenly spoke again.
He frowned slightly and looked at the branch in his right hand, a little confused.
"This branch seems to be the same as the leaf certificate just now. It does not respond to my mental power and magic power."
"Let me take a look." Lilian couldn't help but frown when she heard this.
She held the dry branch in her hands and tried to use it.
But after a while, the dry brown branch still showed no reaction, as if it was just the most ordinary branch.
"Maybe you need to have the blood of the tree elf to use it." Colin saw this and speculated, "I even think that it may require the specific bloodline of the tree elf hybrid family to use it."
The elves value bloodline very much.
"Maybe so." Lillian sighed and handed the branch back to Colin.
Although they defeated Parde who was holding a dead branch, this does not mean that the dead branch is not powerful enough... It is a pity that it cannot be used now.
Colin took the branch and felt a little regretful. He glanced at the trophies that had not been put away on the ground, seemed to have thought of something, and said again:
"I remember that the tree elf hybrid said something -"
"Let's go. There's no need to linger here any longer. It's better to study out a way to enter the treasure house as soon as possible. It's really weird. I obviously have the credentials, but why can't I go in?"
He repeated the words that had been spoken by the tree elf hybrid before, word for word.
After Colin's reminder, Lilian suddenly thought about it, took a deep breath and said:
"These two people, and among these items, may have the credentials to enter the treasure house!"
"That's right." Colin reached out and took out a small wooden box from the pile of items in front of him, and continued to inspect it while saying:
"Furthermore, senior sister, since the two people have reached the entrance of the treasure house, I am afraid that the obstacles along the way should have been basically cleared away, and our next journey will most likely be as smooth as before."
Lilian nodded in agreement and continued to check the remaining things in front of her.
But half an hour later, the two of them checked everything, but could not find the so-called "treasure certificate" at all.
"Perhaps those credentials are inconspicuous and cannot be detected." Colin stood up slowly and put away the storage ring.
Although the storage rings worn by Parde and Litus are not big and don't contain many things, they are still a bit messy and cannot be seen as objects with calendar effects.
"It should be that everything on those two people is here. If the tree elf hybrid is telling the truth, it should be because we failed to find it." Lilian also stood up and looked at the corridor in front of her and continued:
"Let's go to the treasure house and try the remaining unrecognizable items one by one."
On the deep mottled corridor, a slight sound of wind passed by.
Under the cover of the hidden moon veil, Colin and Lilian continued to move forward cautiously.
However, as Colin deduced, the rest of the journey was smooth. There were also inexplicable ferocious monsters and statues on the road, but they were all just corpses.
Colin, who knew the location in advance due to Anando's Dice, steered in the right direction without leaving any trace along the way, so that there were basically no detours or delays. It didn't take long for them to arrive at the main entrance of the treasure house located in a palace.
"This is the legendary elf treasure house..." Lilian murmured softly.
When she came here, to the real main entrance of the treasure house, perhaps because of the accident just now, she lost her impatience and became calm.
"Thousands of years ago, the elves probably received their guests in a place like this, held a banquet, and then generously gave them treasures in this hall and on top of the banquet."
"A proud, wealthy race." Colin echoed.
Standing at the door of the treasure house at this moment, he could not help but feel some fluctuations in his heart.
In fact, he didn't care about the dry branches, because it was just a weapon that could emit green light beams...it might be more powerful, but it might not be suitable for him.
But if he could enter the elf treasure house, and if he could choose, he might be able to get a treasure that is truly suitable for him!
‘Perhaps, we should choose one that improves cultivation efficiency? Hmm...something that can help strengthen the foundation of the body is also good...'
Colin thought endlessly while turning his head and looking around.
This is a square palace hall.
Exquisite long tables and chairs are placed in a U-shape on the three outer sides of the hall, and on the innermost steps, there are three luxurious thrones arranged in an inverted triangle.
The left and right sides are light gold, and the throne in the middle has a tan base with gold threads, while the main body is an emerald green with a faint hint of gold.
It's a pity that the three thrones have been stained with dark red spots.
As for the door of the treasury, it is located in the center of the entire hall at the front and below the throne. It is an arch that stands alone without any support.
Unlike the throne, although the radiance it exudes is dim, there is no sign of contamination after all.
The arch is not high, only about two meters. The material is not visible, but it is extremely majestic.
The background color is light gold, and the surface is engraved with colorful reliefs.
Some of them are mysterious fruits that exude light, some are strange and powerful tools full of beauty, and some are potions that sparkle with bright stars...
It has to be said that although the Liyal whom I encountered before was only a temporary trap, in terms of appearance, it was quite different from the real treasure house gate.
However, compared with the real treasure house door, it still lacks a sense of heaviness.
But at this moment, Colin seemed to see something with his peripheral vision. He slowly turned his head and moved his gaze to the center of the throne.
There, the ground cracked slightly.
Through the cracks, you can vaguely see the base of the throne. It looks like a real big tree, with a well-developed and thick root system, and the knots are entangled, and it is unknown where it extends...
Colin tried to identify the direction in which the root system finally extended... It seemed to be the back?
He shifted his gaze behind the throne with some uncertainty.
There is no passage there, just a wall, a wall carved with a magnificent ancient tree of life.
"Colin, I've checked the surrounding area. There shouldn't be any danger."
"Without further ado, let's start trying to enter the treasure house."
"Okay." Withdrawing his gaze, Colin looked at the treasure house door again.
