Chapter 117: Starting a career

 Werther did not rush down, but waited for the soldiers to gather the slaves and begin to retreat before he began to make preparations.

Before, Werther threw a magic light spell at the bottom of the excavation pit, and the light ball flew to the bottom of the hole. Werther's eyesight was very good, and he saw that not only slaves but also a large number of soldiers were dead at the bottom of the hole.

They were obviously greedy. After digging through the cave, they did not notify Werther immediately. Instead, they organized slaves to go into the cave to hunt for treasure, but they all died at the door.

A large number of slaves lined up to leave the camp, leaving only a few soldiers and slaves to dismantle the tents in the camp and pack away the remaining supplies.

"Nymeria, Tyene, come down with me."

After analyzing the current situation, Werther still feels that it is safer for the two women to be with him.

On the circular steps of the excavation pit, Werther wore six rings on his hands, two bottles of red magic potion and two bottles of blue life potion on his belt. He was carrying an empty backpack and walked at the front with the Dark Sisters.
Triene followed Werther with her dagger, which glowed strangely red. She also carried a bear with a flower on its head. The bear was given by Shireen and was turned into a backpack by Triene.

Inside is the silver-gold dragon egg.

Nymeria was wearing Valyrian steel armor and walking behind Tyene with a Valyrian steel spear in her hand.

At the end of the team is the flame spirit summoned by Werther.

Going down to the bottom, Witte discovered that this was not the entrance to an underground cave. Judging from the arched stone support structure, it should also be an underground building.

The entrance is not the main entrance, but the top of a circular room.

The three of them entered along the gravel. Many people had died here.

"They were burned to death by lightning magic." Tyene used a dagger to look at a corpse and came to the conclusion.

The room is very large, and you can see the whole place clearly by shining light from the excavation pit. There is a dark man-made passage on one side of the room that leads to the lower level. Werther will not go in for the time being, but will explore here first.

Werther was always on guard with his sword. There was a stone bed next to the collapsed rubble, and at the head of the stone bed was an altar.

The altar is entirely made of stone, and the material is red. The carved text on it has been damaged and cannot be read clearly. Witte recognized that this is the appearance of the stone after being soaked in blood for many years. There are many such stones in the slaughterhouse.

There is a petal-shaped object made of Valyrian steel on the altar. It is the size of a basin and has a very delicate structure. It has been damaged by the collapsed roof stones. There is still a little magic flowing out of this thing.

Witte used enchanting skills to detect it, and found that the magic circuit inside had disappeared, and the specific function could not be known.

"What is this?" The two women also came over.

"This should be a room for some kind of sacrificial ceremony. The stone smashed this magic item, and the burst of magic killed them. It should be this thing that I detected with magic before, but now it is damaged and it is of no use. After taking it back and smelting it,

Make equipment." After Witte explained, he put this thing into his backpack.

"Virt, there is High Valyrian writing on the wall!" Nymeria shouted.

She and Tyene have been bored recently, and are also learning High Valyrian, but they are still in the beginning stages, and many words are still unintelligible.

"Loyal warrior, guarded by Lagot. I can't see the other words clearly. There's no way to explain it. Let's go to the cave."

"It's so dark inside, do we really want to go in?" Trine looked at the dark tunnel with some fear.

Werther also hesitated after hearing this.

"I don't know what's going on. As soon as I come to a place like this, I can't help but want to go in when I see the cave. Could it be that the dragonborn's heart has awakened?"

"Heart of the Dragonborn?" Nymeria heard this word for the first time.

Witte began to explain seriously, "I read a story before. There is a group of tomb robbers called Dragonborn. They will try to find a way to enter any tomb they see, and they will not stop until they have looted all the valuable items inside, even if the dead man holds it in his hand."

They will not let go of the money given to Hades to buy the way, and a few will even take away the bones of the dead. The heart of the dragonborn is how they put money on their faces."

"They are so shameless in desecrating the dead!" Tyene said angrily.

Nymeria suddenly thought, "Witt, I remember you said you were a dragonborn mage after singing on the boat?"

Vert was immersed in packing his backpack, not looking at Nymeria.

"I'm a dragonborn in the High Valyrian language. They are tomb robbers who don't know where they came from. They just have the same name." After saying that, he walked into the tunnel.

Werther threw out a few magic lights and stuck them on the tunnel wall.

"Let's go, there is no darkness when there is magic. Please be alert at all times."

The tunnel is not cold but a little hot, probably because there are volcanoes everywhere. The gap has been open for a long time, and there is air inside. Even if there is no air, Witte still has underwater breathing magic to use.

Wherever there is light, the fear will be reduced. For the two women Werther, magic light magic will be lit everywhere along the way, and the flame elf at the end can also light up the tunnel.

The tunnel is not long, and soon the three of them reached a slope.

Nymeria looked at the terrain, "The passage we came in was supposed to be a dead end, and this is the main road."

Wit commanded the flame elf to shoot a fireball up and down the slope.

The fireball flying upward quickly hit a pile of rocks and was extinguished, while the fireball flying downward hit a flat ground.

"The only way to go down now is to follow." Werther was a little excited.

"There are patterns on the ground too!" Tyene walked down, turning her head to look at the carvings on the slope.

The three of them looked down from above.

The uppermost part of the relief on the slope has been suppressed by gravel, making it impossible to know the content.

Starting from what can be seen, there are sculptures of the capital of Valyria, warriors wearing crowns and holding swords with both hands, and scenes of crowds kneeling in worship. Each relief is made of obsidian, and the surroundings of the scene

It is also surrounded by a giant dragon as a border decoration.

"This should be the mine entrance or family tomb of a certain Dragon King family, otherwise there would be no need for such luxury." Nymeria guessed.

Witte "If it's a mine, the entrance shouldn't be a slope with carvings on the ground. I guess it should be a tomb. Come on, let's continue going down."

At the end of the ramp, we came to a room. The space here was much larger than the ramp passage. There were more than a dozen pillars supporting the top of the room, but one corner had collapsed. There were also various reliefs around the walls.

There are candlesticks for placing torches and candles on the pillars, and there are chairs for sitting on the walls, but they are all rotten and unusable.

At the end of the room was a pair of stone doors. One was intact and the other had fallen to the ground. Werther saw that the intact door had several high Valyrian characters on it.

"Ragot!"

"What do you mean?" Tyene pulled the corner of Wert's clothes. She doesn't like going underground.

"It should be one of the fourteen Dragon King ancestors!" Witte recalled.

"Tyene, apply fire damage poison to your dagger and Nymeria's spear!"

"What's wrong?" Tyene asked after taking out a small bottle from the hidden pocket on her waist.

Werther is a little nervous

"If it were the cemeteries of other Dragon King families, there would be no problem, but the fourteen ancestor Dragon Kings would be in trouble. There might be dangers inside, but the things hidden inside are also better."

Nymeria "There are at most some traps in the graveyard of the dead, so we just have to pay attention."

Werther said solemnly

"I am 20 years old now, am I already very powerful?"

The two women nodded.

"If I continue to study magic for decades, and then teach my child, will he be any good?"

The two women nodded again.

"If my guess is correct, this cemetery is like what I just said. The ancestor of this family is a powerful magician like me. Combined with the altar above, there may be resurrection of the dead inside."
p>

After the two women heard this, they looked at the tomb buried deep in the ground. Although the surroundings were lit up by Werther, they began to feel scared.

Werther put his hands on the shoulders of the two women

"Don't be afraid, wait for me here."

The two women nodded vigorously.

Witte turned and walked into the stone door. The white light of the iron armor flashed on his body, and then his body and the Dark Sisters sword were surrounded by flames.

"u~~~qua~~~diiv~~~!"

The quiet voice of the dragon echoed in the dark tomb, and the body was covered in white, blue and yellow magic armor.

Werther left the flame elf beside the two women and walked into the stone door with his sword in hand.

There was still a tunnel inside, which was more dilapidated and ancient than the outside. After turning a corner, Werther turned around and could no longer see Lian Nu.

"I'm scared too!"

More than a hundred meters of darkness underground, unknown tombs, and unknown dead people. In his previous life, Werther was an ordinary person, and in this life he is also a nobleman living on the bright ground. He has never done this kind of tomb robbing business, and his lack of fear is false.
Witte's heartbeat accelerated, he held the Dark Sister tightly in his hand, and kept releasing magic light, illuminating the entire passage.

There is a rotten iron door at the end of the passage. Cut it open with a sword and you will find a small hall.

Rectangular pits were dug around the walls here, with three vertical levels in each row. There were at least dozens of pits in this small hall, and in each pit lay a mummy holding a weapon.
p>

"This scene!"

Werther was so surprised that he didn't dare to move. He squatted down and activated his stealth skill, and walked gently to a mummy.

Stab him with a sword and hope that everything is just like that person who is copying cats and tigers.

Werther's long sword slowly stabbed the mummy's chest.

The tip of the sword was pressed against it, but there was no response.

Inserted an inch, no response.

I pushed it through with a little force, but there was no reaction.

I pulled out the Dark Sister, but still no response

Werther breathed a sigh of relief.

The sword was equipped with magic flames, and the flames burned little by little, gradually charring the body surface of the mummy. Werther squatted beside him and watched quietly, waiting for him to be burned into charcoal.

"Ha~~~~"

The mummy suddenly let out a roar and struggled a few times before becoming motionless.

"Wonima!"

The least expected situation happened. Werther turned his head and looked at the dozens of potholes in the hall.

All the dead soldiers inside woke up. Some turned over and picked up their weapons and stood up. Some fell from the third floor and fell on top of another soldier. Some were dressed in dark and ancient armor, with blue eyes flashing and holding weapons.

Make a roaring sound.
