Chapter 58 The Ruins

"Head, is there really a switch for this door?" Barron knocked on the door with an axe, and a dull sound came from inside.

Everyone searched around here for a long time, but they did not find any mechanism that could open the door.

"You guys back a little." Su Lun waved his hand and said. He was about to force the door to break open. Looking at the traces on the door, he probably might have been damaged long ago, and even if he found it, he would not be able to open the mechanism.

Su Lun stretched out his hand and pressed it on the rusty iron door. Then his muscles were tightened. The two iron doors squeaked and made a sour sound, and then moved little by little.

A large amount of dust fell from above the door, and the heavy iron door began to move slowly.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Several consecutive sounds of metal breaking came from behind the door, and the thick stone door opened slowly and firmly. The iron door was half open, and Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his arms, and the door opened, and a rotten and moldy smell came from the inside.

Su Lun didn't go in immediately. Who knew whether the air inside was poisonous after so long? He summoned some whirlwinds and entered the door. Soon a stream of air with a strong rotten and moldy smell blew out from it.

After two or three breathing times, the smell inside became normal, and the two barbarians walked in with the torches they had just made.

After entering the gate, the light suddenly became much darker. Under the reflection of the torch, several people could see the scene inside the passage. This was a passage with a width of about four meters and three meters high. There was a row of bronze wall lamps on both sides of the passage. The passage was dark and I didn’t know where it led.

Walking along the passage, Su Lun soon saw a decayed corpse with only a pile of bones left. Judging from his dress, this should be an adventurer. The clothes on the body had become torn and ragged. There were several broken arrows on his chest. This unlucky guy should have stepped on the mechanism inside the passage and was shot to death.

I searched casually and found that there was nothing else on the corpse except a rusty weapon. Just as the few people were about to continue moving forward, the corpse that had turned into skeletons slowly stood up.

"The Undead?" Su Lun was not surprised to see the skeleton reviving. When he entered the passage, he felt that the negative energy was a little high, and the corpse would have a high chance of awakening to become the Undead after staying in such a place for a long time.

The skeleton did not have a soul fire in its eyes, which means it was just the lowest level resurrected skeleton. This lowest level undead is very easy to deal with. As long as you overcome your fear, a farmer can also smash it. As a dead creature, it is very sensitive to the breath of living people. As soon as you stand up, you will take the rusty weapon and want to attack Sulun.

As a result, before it was its turn to take action, a giant axe swept across it and directly broke its bones, scattering all over the bones, leaving only a skull at its feet. After stepping on the steel boots, the skull was stomped into pieces with a click.

"Be careful, there may be mechanisms here." After solving the skeleton, the group continued to move inside. In fact, it is best to have a thief for this and exploration. After all, these thieves are very familiar with various mechanisms and hidden weapons, and it is easy to crack. Su Lun and his group, except for the barbarians, can only use brute force cracking.

Fortunately, someone has visited this ruins, and many mechanisms cannot be triggered twice. Only some mechanisms that are expensive and have ingenious production can be reset after triggering.

As he gradually penetrated into the passage, the gloomy feeling became more and more intense. Soon Su Lun saw three corpses that were also rotten into white bones again.

Three ribs on one of the corpses were broken, probably because of the impact of blunt objects. At least ten arrows were inserted into the other two corpses. Su Lun casually checked them and took out several silver nals from several corpses, as well as some rotten parchment paper. The parchment has become ragged after so long, and even the handwriting on it cannot be seen clearly.

These corpses did not turn into undeads. Su Lun guessed that their bone damage must be too serious. Sweep the corpses aside and the group continued to move forward. At this moment, a squeaking sound suddenly came from the open passage, like the sound of the rusty door shaft suddenly opening.

Immediately afterwards, a black shadow suddenly rushed over from the front. The barbarian warrior in front immediately raised his hands and raised his axe. The wide axe surface looked like a shield, covering most of his body. Then the black shadow hit the axe with a bang, and the barbarian's body was also knocked back continuously.

Only then did Su Lun see clearly that it was a wooden stake as thick as a bowl. The front part of the stake was covered with a layer of copper skin. Although it was wood, it was still very important to hit it. Seeing this thing, Su Lun already understood that the corpse with a broken sternum just now was caused by this trap. But he didn't expect that this trap could still be used after hundreds of years.

Seeing that the wooden stake was accumulating force again after the impact, a barbarian warrior next to him chopped over with an axe. The huge force directly broke the iron chain hanging on the wooden stake. The wooden stake lost its balance and hit the wall next to it.

After demolishing the trap, Su Lun checked the savage who was hit. Although he had been hit hard just now, he had already blocked it with an axe before. With the armor on his body, the thick-skinned barbarian was not injured at all, but was a little embarrassed to fall.

After encountering this trap, the team was obviously much more careful, and the wooden stake was also removed as a way to explore the way. It has to be said that the remains were preserved well. The next group encountered many traps, such as stepping on a floor, and dozens of crossbow arrows suddenly shot out around it, and the floor suddenly flipped open, and a bunch of sharp blades appeared below.

But these traps are okay to deal with ordinary adventurers. When encountering Su Lun and the others, they are basically useless. Su Lun and their equipment and their reaction speed, the arrows are easily knocked out. As for the replica traps, they are also directly triggered by heavy wooden stakes.

In the next trip, Su Lun had never found a body. It seemed that the three people discovered before were the last members of the Adventurer Team. There might be survivors. After seeing their companions suffer heavy casualties, they gave up exploring and left directly.

Along the way, violently destroying various traps, Su Lun and the others were not slow. After a few minutes of moving forward, a stone door appeared in front of them again.
