Chapter 23 The entrance to the ruins must be dug out of course
January 13, Thursday, morning, Simim Island.
"It should be right here."
The woman with simple black hair, blue-grey eyes, and an appearance that was obviously not a native of the colony looked around, and then took out a bunch of things for detection. After a while, she seemed to be sure of something.
He couldn't help but smile.
She is none other than Laticia, a pseudo-archaeologist from the "Mos Ascetic Order" and a Sequence 7 wizard.
Laticia then seemed to think of something. She looked at the woman next to her who claimed to be an "elf hybrid" and asked with some anticipation: "Do you feel anything?"
"There...there must be something here." Xiatasi frowned. She did feel something, something was attracting her. This attraction came from the blood of elves and had some kind of bewitching quality.
However, this kind of bewitching power is very weak, and it is not enough to affect her reason and judgment.
"But there isn't even a temple here. All you can see are trees and grass." Mobet naturally noticed the strangeness of Xiatas. He deliberately said in a nonchalant tone, and shook hands quietly while speaking.
Shatasi placed her right hand at her side as a gesture of comfort.
Then, Mobet saw Shatas give him a look of "What are you doing, you idiot?"
Mobet:……
Well, he really shouldn't expect Shatas to react like a normal girl.
But just when Mobet once again lamented in his heart that his wife was just a piece of wood, he suddenly discovered that after looking at him, Xiatasi didn't pull her hand back.
#She asked me to hold hands, she has me in her heart#
Mobet was instantly ecstatic. He couldn't help but leaned closer to Xiatas. His whole body was almost on Xiatas's shoulder, and then he suddenly suffered a blow.
"Don't press on me, you'll die." Xiatasi said angrily.
"I'm sorry..." Mobet rubbed the place where he was hit and stepped back a little aggrievedly.
Laticia, who was about to say something but witnessed this scene:...
Can there be different occasions when falling in love?
"The ruins of the ancient elves are underground. Of course you can't see anything when you look at them on the ground." Laticia said stiffly. She then took out something from her backpack, which was a shovel.
"Let's dig. This ruins has been buried for a long time. We have to dig up here first."
…
"It's really down-to-earth. I thought it would be more mysterious." In a certain tree, Lin Ruo held his head with one hand and held a telescope in the other, sitting against the trunk of the tree and looking at the people digging hard on the ground in the distance.
Personally, I suddenly felt that exploring the ruins was instantly connected to some kind of illegal enterprise.
But he also knows that this is normal. Since things like ruins are buried underground, the first thing to do if you want to get in is to dig the soil. After all, there are no resentful souls per capita, and travelers can travel directly in.
Even considering that the condition of the ruins is unknown, travelers may not go directly in even if it is a resentful spirit.
"Are we just going to wait like this?" Klein, who was also holding a telescope next to him, asked in a low voice.
"What else? Even if we want to take action, we have to wait until they dig out the entrance, otherwise what if they make a mistake? And I don't want to dig the soil." Lin Ruo spread his hands and said very calmly.
Klein:……
Actually, the last sentence is the key point.
——That's right, it's already the second day. Lin Ruo and Klein are also quietly following Laticia and others. They rely on the inner ghost and their own powerful tracking and concealment skills to follow them all the way.
The other party came to this virgin forest behind him.
As for Medici? This guy is analyzing data in the safe house. When the entrance to the ruins is dug out, Lin Ruo will summon him.
Under the watchful eyes of the master and the apprentice, Laticia and the others quickly dug a pit. Then, after digging for a while, they dug out a building wall that was obviously buried underground.
Obviously, Laticia's judgment is indeed correct.
After discovering the wall, Laticia put down the shovel and let others continue digging while she prepared herself.
The things she prepared were obviously some kind of explosives and purification spells. It was obvious that she did not intend to actually dig out the ruins' door and enter, but intended to blow up a path.
So, not long after, after a "boom--", a hole was blasted out in the wall of the ruins buried underground that could allow people to get through.
Looking inside from this mouth, you can see not much, most of it is dark, and you can only vaguely see some pillars and collapsed walls.
"Get ready, let's... huh?" Laticia's voice stopped suddenly, not because she didn't want to speak, but because her thoughts were stolen at this moment.
At the same moment, Mobet whispered something very fast, and then he snapped his fingers, and a wisp of flame came out from his fingertips. Shatas' hand had already drawn the bow and arrow, flashing
The tip of the lightning arrow was almost touching Laticia's neck, making her dare not move.
"That's it for now, the madmen trying to intrude on the tranquility of the Queen's ruins." Xiatasi said with a cold face. She had been holding back for a while, and now she just wanted to beat him up.
While playing with the flames, Mobet said: "Don't be too nervous, everyone, we have no intention of killing you, we just hope that you will give up this ruins, leave immediately, and keep it secret."
"You... dream stealers? Ocean singers?"
Laticia looked at the two of them in astonishment. Of course she was not unprepared for the two people who came in halfway, but she really didn't expect that the other party would actually be two Sequence 5s.
She thought that at most it would be the same Sequence 7 as hers.
No, since you two are Sequence 5, why are you pretending to be noobs with me? If you want to know the whereabouts of the ruins, just ask me, can I still tell you?
Laticia was speechless, and at the same time she was a little excited and frightened.
What kind of ruins can actually arouse the covetousness of two Sequence 5s? The queen in Xiatasi's mouth is...
Laticia's curiosity as a spy even overcame her fear at this moment. Naturally, she would not try to resist the two Sequence 5s, especially when her teammates around her had given up resistance - Laticia's four good friends
After hearing Laticia's words, the teammates decisively gave up resistance one by one.
This is not surprising, they are just some Sequence 9s and Sequence 8s. Even if they are united, they cannot do anything to two Sequence 5s.
This is a strong man at the level of a pirate general.
So Laticia just said: "Perhaps you need a guide. I am definitely more familiar with exploring ruins than you are."
"No, it's better for you not to get involved in what's going to happen next. Especially you, Laticia, who has some elven blood, can easily be contaminated in this ruins."
A strange voice sounded, a gentle-sounding male voice.
Laticia didn't dare to move her head. She glanced in the direction of the sound from the corner of her eye and saw two young men walking side by side towards them.
There was a man she had seen in the newspaper a few months ago, the crazy adventurer Gehrman, who was not of high rank but dared to hunt pirates crazily, and even provoked the madman on the Blood Admiral's pirate ship.
A young man who looked very bookish at first was not dressed in the way he should be seen in this primeval forest. He even seemed to be holding a book in his hand.
