Conquest

    Chapter 233 [** Specimen Area] (I)

    Indeed, literally, the words "high risk" and "restricted access" will never give people a feeling of comfort.

    Moreover, the words "** specimens" will make people involuntarily give birth to a few strange and uneasy thoughts.

    Think of the "specimens" that have been seen before, and what are the ** specimens? A living dragon? Still a living giant? Or what is an ancient monster?

    The problem is that now everyone is backing out, there is only one way out: forward. No matter what is the front of the sea, or through the hell, hillbilly and others can only recognize the scalp.

    "Don't be too nervous."Shaar opened up to comfort everyone – in fact, it is better to say that he is comforting himself: "This ghost place has been closed for many thousands of years, even if there is any living thing that died early, even in this ghost place, even if there is a group The dragon is here, tens of thousands of years down, don’t eat or not, and there is no scum left.”

    Perhaps Shaar's words of comfort have worked – in fact, this is only the self-comfort of hillbilly, because in addition to the witch doctor, the other Zakou warriors simply don't know these ancient Goblin words, and naturally there is no danger at all. a feeling of.

    Because the other Zakou warriors simply did not pay attention to the bird language that Shaar said.

    The only thing that understood Shaar's words was Tatara. Mage's look suddenly became tense: "What kind of living thing? Master, what is written on it? Ah There must be something dangerous ahead of me! We, we are still looking for another way! ! ”

    "Hey, shut up! Otherwise I will tie you up and let you walk in front of the team. ”Shaar deliberately put on a sly expression.

    Don't underestimate the fierceness of this hillbilly. In fact, just a little over a year ago, when he went to the dragon slaughter with our delicate and tender pitiful creature Adeline, it didn't have any good intentions. (Well, in the eyes of Hillbilly, I only thought of the pink little girl as a little white face, but in fact, now Shaar has not figured out the true face of Adeline. )

    With the courage to inspire himself, Shaar continues to lead everyone into the only channel in front of him.

    This time the passage was much narrower, and it was safe along the way. I was not experiencing a killing trap like the Rolling Stones. This passage was not too long, but it was not until a hundred meters, but after reaching the end, Shaar was dumbfounded.

    Because the end of the passage is not a door, but…Damn six! ! !

    These six doors, if they are all the kind of iron that they have encountered before, then everyone should be desperate. In fact, five of the passages were sealed by the sturdy iron gate, but there was a passage that was open, without any blockage, no door! Just like the undefended portal…

    This kind of scene makes everyone really have no choice. It seems that only the only one has no direction, but the problem is…

    When Shaar first entered the passage, he stepped into the body and suddenly was "pushed" by an invisible force! As if there was an invisible palm in the air, the hillbilly was directly squeezed out. He walked back three steps, widened his eyes, looked at the front in amazement, and touched his body. Hell? ”

    He tried to move in again. This time Shaar was ready and his body was tight, but still, the soft power reappeared, blocking Shaar directly.

    Looking at Shaar's astonished look, the witch doctor's eyes were already picked up. She gently pulled Shaar and then looked at Tatara: "Lord Mage, do you feel it?"

    Tatara, the dull guy, stunned with a stunned eye. After a while, he suddenly yelled, and he slammed his arms to the open passageway, closing his eyes as if listening, and then I nodded: "There is a fluctuation of mana!"

    "This is a magic array."Some of the distressed tone, she and Shaar thought of the same sentence on the channel brand: "Limit in and out."

    For the magic array, Tatara can't help much – in fact, from the way, the waste has not produced any strength.

    But Dora in his mind reminded Shaar: "You try again, this time the action is slower, this magic array should be limited."

    Shaar was very obedient and walked over again. He first reached out and his palm was successfully penetrated into the passageway, then the elbow of the arm…But when his shoulders approached the passage, the force reappeared and he flicked back.

    When Shaar was still blinking, Dora had already snorted in his mind. He had to say that this dragoness was extremely excellent in both knowledge and wisdom. She first recognized the valuable details: "It seems to be limited. Not your body, but something that comes with you."

    Stuff

    After all, the Shaar reaction was not slow. He thought about it. He had clothes on his arm, but he couldn’t pass it on his shoulder. That was…

    He immediately took off the soft armor of his upper body, especially the two shoulder-shouldered iron pieces on the shoulders, which are standard samurai equipment.

    He tried it again, and sure enough, he could go in, but when he stepped, he was again bounced.

    "It seems that the metal iron is restricted."Shaar sighed. He took a shoulder protector and threw it. Then he saw that the iron shoulder was bounced. And when he threw one of his boots into it, he threw it in without any response.

    This can be a bit of a hassle.

    This is the only passage that has no door to block the way, but if you let everyone throw away the irons on your body…Equal to everyone being disarmed!

    A group of Zakou fighters without a weapon…If you are in danger, such as when you encounter the legendary Holy Serpent, how do you deal with it? Do you bite with your teeth?

    "We have no choice."After a quick trade-off, the witch doctor’s decision was more decisive than Shaar’s decision. She greeted me and all the Zakou fighters began to disarm. Although they were all disappointed, each Zakou warrior lost his beloved iron. The spear, the guy with the dagger on it, also solved the weapon and threw it on the ground.

    Shaar's look was hesitant. He held the fire pitchfork around his waist and was obviously full of disappointment. However, when he held the last hope, grabbed the fire pitchfork and explored the passage, and found that there was no expected rebound force, hillbilly smiled happily!

    This limits the metal's magic array, but this fire pitchfork can pass smoothly. God knows what the magic pitchfork is. Is it not metal?

    "This should be just a limited iron-containing metal."Dora in his head made a hypothesis. Shaar immediately found out a gold coin and threw it in. Then he saw the gold coin's smooth bones rolling in. Shaar looked a little regretful: except fire pitchfork, he was There is another thing that he is not willing to throw away, the dagger of the gold handle that General Adrick gave him. Shaar hesitated and sighed for the gift of the person who was extremely respected in his heart. He finally sighed. He pulled out the dagger and slammed it on the ground.

    In addition to this dagger, there is another one that makes Shaar feel bad, that is, the powerful screaming bow! Atlantean's gift was one of Shaar's favorite weapons, and the bag of heavy gold-built iron-shouldered armored arrows was also thrown on the floor by Shaar's vomiting expression.

    Hillbilly dripped blood in his heart, then snorted and forced himself not to look at the things on the ground. The first big step went into the passage.

    Thankfully, in addition to fire pitchfork, dragonscales are not limited, which makes Shaar feel better.

    "Idiot, because the scales of the dragon are essentially bone."Dora dismissed the answer in his mind, but the tone of this dragoness was a bit annoyed, because the piece of dragonscales hidden in Shaar's clothes at the moment was peeled off her.

    As a Mage, Tatara's body is not carrying any metal. It is easier for the witch to be healed. The staff in her hand is black wood, and although there is silver at the top, it is clear that silver is not limited by this magic array.

    It was the group of Zakou fighters who, after losing the weapon, were really unarmed.

    “Is there any way to open the iron-like door?”Shaar muttered in his mouth, and he was still distressed by the screaming bow. That is not a rare baby! If there are other ways to choose…

    "It's impossible to rely on 'Dragon Thorn'. In fact, among the ancient dragon knights, the Dragon Thorn is just a basic combat skill. The Dragon Knight has more powerful combat skills, just the kind of stunt. You have no ability to show it. Mmm…If your strength reaches Saint-Level…"

    NonsenseShaar rolled his eyes.

    This passage is just a moment of effort, and suddenly there is a bright light in front!

    exportShaar got a boost and the first quick step ran up.

    This is a round hole, the stairs on the ground go down, and after the hole is found, it is suddenly cheerful!

    Shaar first rushed to the hole and stood on the steps, but looking at the scene in front of him, hillbilly took a deep breath, his eyes widened, his eyes flashing with amazement, standing there, I even forgot to move on.

    "my God! This is amazing! ! ”

    This vast expanse of land, a cluster of huge and incomparable plants, lush like a lush forest, these plants are huge, even if it is an ordinary plant, a leaf can almost directly wrap an adult man stand up!

    Many plants are familiar, but if you look carefully, you will find that these familiar things are the most common plants, such as Shaar, who saw a small piece that looks like a house. Something: It is actually a huge mushroom! !

    There are some things like banana leaves, but the size of the banana leaves can cover almost seven or eight people!

    We provide comprehensive supportDid you come to the world of giants? ”Tatara sighed.

    This is an underground world, a world where ** exists, the land in front of it, this jungle looks extremely strange, these plants grow so lush.

    The terrain here is also somewhat weird.

    This jungle, visually at least one small town, is located in the center of the distance, and the terrain suddenly rises high, forming a high hillside-like terrain.

    The most important thing is that the world is underground!

    This is simply a huge cave in the ground! When you look up, go up a hundred meters or so, it is the top of the cave! A natural giant underground space!

    The jungle wraps around the hillside in the middle, and a circle further out is a river that surrounds the jungle!

    This is obviously an underground stream of water. The river is tens of meters wide and the water is calm.

    Shaar, who was standing there for a long time, suddenly changed his look. He looked up and stared at the top of the cave above his head and opened his mouth!

    "God! What's that? Is there a sun here? ! ”

    Everyone also woke up. This huge underground cave is not dark! There is indeed a sun-like source above the head.

    A huge, radiant, spherical thing is on top of the cave, as if floating there. The light is reddish, and if you look too long, you may even feel some glare.

    But Shaar quickly saw it.

    That thing is not what the "sun" (nonsense, how can this place have the sun.), but a piece…A huge round crystal ball!

    From the visual point of view, the degree of luminescence of that thing, as well as the estimation of the distance…The round crystal ball, I am afraid that at least one house must be the size! !

    Tatara, who was standing next to Shaar for a long time, was suddenly excited. He shouted with open arms: "magic!! This is magic! ! This is magic! ! Oh my god! ! This is a giant magic array! ! That glowing thing is a lighting magic! ! Oh my. How many mana do you have to maintain to maintain such a huge magic array! ! ”

    This magic array is not the kind of hole that was previously stored in that specimen!

    Because everyone has common sense, the growth of any plant needs continuous light! If it has always been dark, so many plants here are probably dead! Therefore, with this logic to judge, the head of the sun-like luminous source, it has been illuminated at least for tens of thousands of years! !

    How many horrible mana do you have to consume? !

    Moreover, there is another problem that needs attention:

    "Master, there is a forest here!"Tatara swallowed and looked at Shaar: "Can you be sure there is no creature here?"

    Immediately, the word "** specimen" jumped into Shaar's mind.

    "Don't distract you! Put together…We are looking for a look, there is no other way out here. ”

    Shaar instinctively felt that there was some evil in the jungle in front of him – in fact, I don't know how deep in the underground, there is such a ghost place, and individuals will feel the evil door.

    Moreover, Shaar, who grew up in the mountains, feels an instinctive feeling. He feels that there is a danger in this jungle.

    Without his reminder, the instincts of these Zakou people are not much worse than Shaar.

    Around the river around this circle, I tried the water test. The river is not deep, but the surface looks like a calm stream of water. In fact, there is a rushing undercurrent under the water surface, which is not so quiet.

    But only to the depth of the human chest, as long as you hold hands, you can forcibly pass through the water.

    After crossing the river, the Zakou soldiers began to move immediately. They were very skilled at starting to climb branches. Shaar provided his own fire pitchfork to help these Zakou people quickly make more than a dozen spears from the branches. In this way, if there is any danger, everyone will at least avoid the desperation of using teeth to bite people.

    Although this jungle is too weird, and most of the plants, even Shaar, an experienced old hunter, don't know, but after all, like these Zakou people, he grew up in such a similar environment, so he grew up. As soon as everyone walked into the jungle, it seemed as if everyone was a lot easier.

    "We have to go through the jungle and go to the other side to see if there are other access points."This is Shaar's proposal – in fact they have no other choice, so Shaar's proposal was approved by the witch doctor.

    Ever since I entered this place, I have been unknowingly for a few hours. In this place where I can’t see the sun, I can’t calculate the time. But from the point of hunger and thirst, I’m afraid I’ve already had a meal. time.

    "If you are outside, I am afraid it is already dawning."

    Fortunately, the food was not discarded, and everyone brought some dry food. But soon, Shaar passed and issued an order to all Zakou warriors: food must be strictly distributed and eaten in limited quantities.

    Originally, with the instinct of the Zakou people, what food can't be found in the jungle?

    But after walking into the jungle, Shaar and all the Zakou people were uneasy to discover that their instinct to survive and lean in the jungle, in this place, completely useless!

    All the plants here look very different from the outside, plausible, some bright fruits hanging on the trees, we are not sure whether they will poison people after eating, and those huge mushrooms like houses, In fact, the texture is as hard as wood!

    The most important were:There are no creatures here! !

    I have been walking in this jungle for so long, but I have not seen a living thing! Don't say what kind of rat, rabbit, snake, etc., even if the bird has not seen one!

    "There is no fish in the river we have just passed."

    Shaar said with concern: "We can't find food here."

    Because I didn't know how long I would stay in this underground labyrinth, the food on everyone was limited, so Shaar's decision was supported by the witch doctor.

    After a few hours, every Zakou warrior was already hungry and thirsty. The water was not sinister. The water in the river was determined to be non-toxic. The witch doctor confirmed this after inspection. But food restrictions…They are all strong men with big waists, but each person is only allowed to eat a large piece of dry food, which is really…

    However, this is not the most important issue.

    When he stopped to drink water and eat, Shaar found that the witch had not been eating, and even had no water to drink. The woman stood there, leaning her head and looking at the huge hair above her head. Crystal ball with light.

    "What happened?"Shaar smiled.

    The witch doctor bowed her head and looked at Shaar. There was a deep sorrow in her eyes.

    "What happened?"Shaar didn't laugh too. He had some understanding of the witch doctor along the way. This weird woman was a quiet and indifferent woman. Looking at her eyes, she seemed to have noticed something bad.

    I took a deep breath: "The ball, the light, is weakening!"

    Shaar is stunned.

    The witch doctor actually smiled. Although she could not see her face, her eyes were obviously smiling, but the smile was bitter.

    "I should have thought of it, here, the crystal ball, the simulated sun, here, the plants, the water, the light, then there should be, the night! This is a simulated outside world where plants grow, need light, and need to alternate in the night! ”

    Shaar listened carefully and understood the meaning of the witch doctor. I have to say that among the group, the witch doctor is the most careful one. Shaar immediately thought of this. He frowned. "What do you mean, this crystal ball will slowly weaken the light slowly?" Then go out…Just like the alternation of day and night? ”

    The voice of the witch doctor suddenly became a little anxious. She was kneeling on the ground, and her hand was on the ground for a few strokes. The mouth said in a stiff tone: "The restriction of iron! Why?

    Shaar didn't understand it, but she had already looked up. Her eyes crossed Shaar, but she was directly behind Shaar. In the distance, the center of the jungle, the tall tens of meters of hillside!

    "There is iron mine!"

    "What?"Shaar is still a bit stunned.

    "Iron ore, red iron ore."An impatient explanation: "I can recognize it, I will identify the vein. That hillside is an iron ore, red iron mine! ”

    Shaar understood.

    Red iron ore? The witch doctor said that there is a red iron mine on this hillside?

    Red iron, this kind of thing Shaar knows, this is a soft metal, much softer than ordinary iron ore, but the iron extracted from this red iron ore is red, and from the perspective of potion, This red iron has a large amount of acidity and is not suitable for forging appliances. There is no such vein in the Byzantine Empire, but there are several in the remote locations on the Primal Wildfire.

    This kind of red iron is not very useful, so Shaar doesn't know much about this kind of thing, but…Red iron ore?

    Shaar suddenly changed his face!

    He widened his eyes in horror and looked at it: "You said red iron ore?!"

    Nodded!

    For a moment, Shaar understood! He understood where the strong uneasiness in his heart came from! He understood why this jungle was dead, and there was no trace of a trace of creatures! !

    Because, at Primal Wildfire, some experienced old Mercenary knows that there is always a terrifying thing in the place where the iron ore is located! ! Even the most elite mercenary group or mounted bandit, you are not afraid to get close to those places! !

    Shaar's look suddenly became terrifying, and he immediately looked up at the "sun" in the sky, and then he took a breath: "Hell! light

    As if it were a coincidence, when Shaar called out, suddenly, the fiery crystal ball on the top of the head suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and the instant light was several times stronger, but this dazzling was just a moment. Immediately after that flash, it suddenly went out! !
