Abyss Domination

Chapter 13: Vientiane impermanence card

Views:

A short distance of more than ten meters.

Sauron spent more than half an hour. The most troublesome thing about the trap is not how to remove it, but that you can't be sure where it will hide. Especially this kind of one-hit deadly trap, many times you are taking risks with your head up, even a slight carelessness may kill you. This is why many professionals would rather find a stable job than explore underground ruins.

"Found!"

With a perception of 15 points, Sauron is very sensitive to danger. Relying on his previous experience, he carefully used a dagger to pry open an irregular stone from the corner of the wall, and he found a complex launcher inside it. There should be a trigger buried in the ground. If a person with the weight of an adult steps on it, the trigger will activate the trigger of the firing device in front of him, and then more than three crossbow bolts will be shot from the wall.

"one two three four five six!… "

Sauron couldn't help wiping off his cold sweat, secretly thankful that he was careful enough, this was actually a multiple crossbow trap, if he accidentally got caught, he would be shot into a sieve. Unless he is wearing heavy armor, it is possible to block such a powerful crossbow. If he remembers correctly, the single lethality of this kind of crossbow trap is about 12 points, and six crossbow bolts are enough to kill him in an instant if they don't hit the vital point.

Click!

Sauron stuck the main trigger with his finger, then lay down on the ground and knocked on the iron bar with a dagger. This kind of trap is made of special steel. After simple enchanting treatment, it will not rust and make mistakes in decades. The traps in some underground ruins are completely enchanted, and they are still deadly enough to be buried underground for hundreds of years!

clap clap.

Six crossbow bolts were shot out, and all of them sank into the wall on the other side.

Sauron didn't care about the dust on his face, dug out the launching device inside, and then followed the memory to find out the location of the trap.

A trigger, a launcher, and a barista trap.

"nice one!"

A smile appeared on Sauron's face. He disassembled them into parts and put them in. Thieves don't have to close their eyes to set up traps. Even a legendary thief can't set up a trap without the right materials. If you buy such a crossbow trap material from Shadow Mask, don't even think about it without thirty or fifty Kindlers!

After all, this is a trap device that can instantly kill fighters with a career level below five.

A row of data emerges:

"Successfully disarmed the trap."

"Your thieves skills have been improved, and you have gained 210 professional experience points."

Professional trap dismantling experience is very high, and the skill requirements for thieves are higher. Sauron put away other things, but assembled the crossbow launcher. It was not an ordinary crossbow bolt, but a box for firing crossbow bolts. After Sauron dug out the six crossbow bolts and put them in again, he only needed to pull the trigger in the box to shoot out six crossbow bolts in one go.

This device can't be fired in a single shot, it can only be fired after it is fully loaded, and six crossbows must be fired at a time!

After all, this is not a formal crossbow.

Sauron moved on after dismantling a trap. It seemed that there was only an acid trap set here, which had been triggered by the hapless thief.

The price of strong acid traps is higher, and it takes about 100 Kindlers to set them up!

Because of the possibility of using a magic trigger.

The cave at the back became winding, and Sauron relaxed a little bit. It is very difficult to set up traps in this environment, and it is easy to be triggered by mice or the like, so there should be no traps here. However, he did not dare to take it lightly, and proceeded cautiously until a hidden stone gate appeared in front of him.

creak!

After confirming that there was no trap on the stone door, Sauron gently pushed it open.

"Woo!"

A gust of wind blew by, and Sauron suddenly felt a chill on his back, and without hesitation he slashed out his weapon, only to see a hazy shadow emerge, with a miserable smile on the ferocious ghost's face, and disappeared on the spot with a strange cry .

"ghost?!"

Sauron leaned against the wall cautiously, and quickly took out the holy water.

Ghosts are spirit-like beings, and conventional non-enchanted weapons cannot harm them, even if they stand and let Sauron slash a hundred times, it will be fine.

They can only be dealt with by other people.

"Jie Jie!"

Weird laughter emerged, and the phantom of the ghost reappeared.

It makes a sharp howl, which is one of its innate abilities. The low-level [Howl of the Undead] has the effect of a magic-like 'fear technique'. If it is a timid person, it will be petrified in an instant.

As soon as Sauron's eardrums hurt, without the slightest fear in his heart, he threw the holy water over with his backhand.

bang!

The holy water was sprinkled all over the ghost's body, and there was a shrill scream, and the ghost's figure quickly dissolved, turning into a cloud of shadows and disappearing.

"Fortunately, we were prepared."

Sauron wiped off his cold sweat, and picked up a small black stone on the ground.

This is the ghost's soul fragment!

The life of a pure spirit body may be transformed into a material structure when it dissipates. It is such a soul fragment, which is a common charging material.

Necromancers love it.

The price is about fifteen Kindlers!

The ghost's challenge level is level five, and it doesn't matter how many people come if there is nothing to restrain it.

Because it is not afraid of physical attacks at all.

However, if they brought holy water and other items, an ordinary person could kill them. They were considered to be one of the most difficult and easy creatures to deal with.

A row of data emerges:

"Holy water hits the ghost, causing 60 damage."

"Target dead!"

"Drain the target's soul energy and gain 120 experience points."

Sauron's experience points were enough to raise a thief level, but he didn't do so.

Because killing experience is too difficult to obtain, this kind of experience is generally used to improve advanced professional and part-time abilities. There is no need to use valuable killing experience before the fifth level of thieves. If he encounters other traps, he only needs to dismantle one or two more to upgrade. If he has the opportunity to work part-time, killing experience is the most valuable thing.

creak!

Sauron pushed open the stone door of the secret chamber.

Many things inside were dusty, and there were some books on the walls, but they were all damaged.

There are cobwebs on all sides and mouse holes in the corners.

It has been deserted for a long time.

Right in front was a stone table, on which were placed many odds and ends, such as unknown skulls, broken finger bones, dried bat carcasses, and a black wooden box.

"No extraordinary weapons, no magic devices."

A look of disappointment could not help but appear in Sauron's eyes. There seemed to be nothing of value in this secret room, except for the wooden box that did not know what was inside.

He touched it lightly to make sure there were no traps before carefully picking it up.

"It seems to be iron wood?"

Sauron looked around, held the box in the palm of his hand, away from his head, and then pried it open with a dagger.

He still couldn't tell if there would be a magic trap inside.

But if you come to such a low-level treasure cave, there shouldn't be so many traps, but it's better to stay away from your head.

Click!

Sauron pried open the box in front of him, and there were three cards inside.

As if they were out of tune with everything around them, the three cards were so exquisite. The mithril lace was inlaid with fine diamonds, and in the center was a swirl-like magic pattern, which attracted all people's attention at a glance. . This seems to be something that can be manufactured under the current civilization, and even the divine power badge of the temple is not so exquisite.

A look of surprise or worry appeared on Sauron's face, because what he held was a legendary magic item.

— "The Vientiane Impermanence Card?!"

This is a treasure left over from the period of the Arcane Empire, and it is said to be the boring work of a certain legendary arcanist.

There are 108 Impermanence Cards in total, each of which has special magic power, which may bring you unimaginable benefits or bring you devastating disasters.

No one knows what the Vientiane Impermanence card will bring!

Some people were overwhelmed by 10,000 arcane gold coins falling from the sky after opening the card, and some people were struck by a powerful lightning bolt after opening the card.

"Item Identification!"

Sauron tried to activate the data flow in his brain, and soon a row of small words appeared:

"Vientiane Impermanence Card [Legendary Item]*3: A gadget left over from the period of the Arcane Empire, it is the highest achievement of alchemy in the previous era, and incredible things will happen after it is opened."

(It is said that drawing an ace can bring you unimaginable power!)

Do you want to open it

Sauron showed a look of embarrassment, finally gritted his teeth and took out a card, biting his fingertips to drip a drop of blood.

The front and back of the Vientiane Impermanence card are the same. Only blood can be used to open the card. No one knows what this card represents before opening it. Even the legendary wizard has no way to predict it.

A faint light emerged.

After absorbing Sauron's blood, the first card of Impermanence rippled like ripples, and then a vortex in the center began to appear on the screen. The first thing that appeared was a treasury, in which countless gold coins and precious stones were piled up. This picture made Sauron extremely excited, because it meant that he might have drawn a 'treasure card'.

But.

Immediately, a wretched figure appeared at the gate of the treasure house. He was holding a bag and was desperately trying to pack the treasure.

"No!"

Sauron's face instantly collapsed, he knew what he had drawn.

- "Thief!"

A ray of light appeared from the opened Vientiane Impermanence card, and then an extremely wretched phantom appeared. He smiled strangely, and an ancient alchemy rune appeared in the palm of his hand. In the blink of an eye, all valuables on Sauron's body were stolen. , except for the three cards in his hand, even his clothes were stolen.

A gloomy wind blows!

Sauron shuddered on the spot, his whole body was naked.

Weapons, clothes, gold coins, holy water, tools, everything on Sauron's body disappeared out of thin air, even the iron and wooden box in his hand disappeared, leaving only three Impermanence cards.

the wind blows.

Ass cool!
