Chapter 86: The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant

The long bow was lowered. Chris and others were still looking at the box blankly. Everyone felt something vaguely, but they couldn't believe it. An Fei knew very little about mithril. To be precise, he only read it in the magic book in the library. I have seen about the use of mithril, but it was just a quick glance, and An Fei didn't think much about it.

After brushing off the dust on the long bow, the true face of the long bow was revealed in front of An Fei. This bow was about four feet long and felt very heavy. There were no patterns or decorations on the back of the bow, and the style looked very simple. Under the dim light of the elemental lamp, the bow was gray-black, and the bowstring was dark gold. Although An Fei didn't know much about appreciating items in this world, he had a feeling that this bow was by no means a mortal thing!

An Fei exerted force on both arms, and tentatively slowly pulled the bow. When it was only half full, An Fei felt very strenuous, and the right finger on the string was also slightly sore. He took a deep breath and used his arm strength. , and pulled away a few inches, suddenly felt pain coming from his fingers, and hurriedly let go of his hand.

The bow string rebounded suddenly, first making a sharp whistle, which was the sound of the bow string cutting through the air, and then it changed to a buzzing sound. An Fei looked at his fingers in surprise, such a domineering long bow ah!

An Fei gently put the long bow back to its original place, and then turned his attention to the giant axe. The giant ax was almost as tall as a person. The ax handle was as thick as a child's arm, the ax surface was as big as a wheel, and the streamline of the ax blade was It's very strange. The flow line of the ax blade at the bottom is smooth, but the flow line of the ax blade at the top suddenly becomes sharp. Like the long bow, the giant ax also gives people a simple feeling. The whole body is dark black, and only the ax blade is slightly white.

This giant ax might not have weighed more than a hundred kilograms. An Fei was thinking as he stretched out his right hand to take off the giant axe. As a result, although the giant ax came down, it shook An Fei and he almost took it off. The giant ax was thrown to the ground. An Fei was stunned. He knew his family's affairs, and his right hand was quite powerful. He had no problem turning two or three hundred kilograms of objects. He didn't expect that the weight of the giant ax far exceeded his estimate.

An Fei also grabbed the handle of the ax with his left hand and stood sideways. Before he could understand what was happening, he suddenly felt that his feet became weak and sank in a little bit. He happened to step on a pile of jewelry. This thing could support it. An Fei was alone, but with the weight of the giant ax, it couldn't be done.

An Fei hurriedly turned sideways and exerted force to hang the giant ax in its original place. He had used all his strength to control it, but the giant ax still made a dull roar when it hit the wall, which shocked Chris and others.

"An Fei, what are you doing?" Chris then looked away from the box.

"It's nothing." An Fei smiled: "You guys have been looking at it for a long time, what do you think? Can you open the box?"

"This is indeed an elemental lock, it is impossible to open..." Chris shook his head.

"Hey, you think...is this mithril?" Riska suddenly asked.

"Mithril?" After so many days, it has exceeded the limit of Anfei's timing memory. When he heard the name, he felt familiar, but he really couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"I feel like it is, but it doesn't seem like it is. Have any of you seen Mithril?" Bravi said with a wry smile.

"I've seen it, but there's no way to tell, and I can't say for sure," Chris replied.

"If you use magic to attack it, you can see it."

"That won't work, the elemental lock will react!" Chris shook his head quickly.

"Chris, are you sure there's no way to open the elemental lock?"

"There is no way except using the right spell to activate the elemental lock."

"Think again." An Fei was a little unwilling to give up.

"No, An Fei, maybe... there is another way, which is to find an alchemist and let him try it. We will definitely not be able to do it."

"Okay then." An Fei nodded: "Suzanne, come and take a look at this." An Fei took off the long bow as he spoke.

Susanna walked up to An Fei in a few steps and took the long bow. The long bow used by An Fei was slightly too big. Susanna was half a head lower than An Fei, and her arms were much shorter. She was holding the long bow. The posture seemed a bit strange, but the fighting spirit was not for show. Susanna opened the bow with all her strength, and then opened it to eighty percent full, and then slowly increased the force. When it reached full moon, Susanna could no longer hold on, and hurriedly let go. The bowstring bounced forward with an ear-piercing scream, and then a wind blade visible to the naked eye appeared out of thin air and hit the wall in front, creating a hole in the gray rock cave wall.

Everyone was stunned at this moment, and An Fei couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, Susanna's long bow was not pointed at him, otherwise he might not have been able to escape!

"Does this bow have a name?" An Fei looked at the most knowledgeable Chris Reese and shook his head: "This bow can shoot ▊

Why have I never heard of it? "

"Does anyone know the name of this bow?"

Riska and others shook their heads, and An Fei could only focus on Susanna: "Susanna, do you know?"

"I don't know." Susanna replied while gently stroking the back of the bow. It seemed that she liked this longbow very much. Unfortunately, it was not suitable for her. Her body shape was quite different, and her arm length was also quite different. Using this kind of longbow was not suitable for her. It was very difficult. Besides, she was a swordsman. Being able to draw a long bow did not mean that she could hit the target.

"Forget it if you don't know, Susanna, just put away the long bow and that giant axe."

"Me? I don't want it, An Fei, I said I just want that sword!"

"This is your thing, who wants it if you don't want it?"

"Then... put it in your space ring. We'll talk about it later. My space ring is already full of stuff. You can't let me walk around carrying an ax all day long, right?"

"That's fine." An Fei didn't want to push back and forth with Susanna on this issue. He pondered for a long time: "Suzanne, if you want to open the elemental lock, there is only one way."

"What can I do?" Susanna's expression suddenly became tense.

"Tell us who stole your treasure map, and we will work together to find a way to get it back!"

"This..." Susanna paused, looking a little hesitant.

"For a long time, we didn't know where you sisters came from or what your family background was like. We never asked. We know that when you want to say something one day, you will naturally tell us." An Fei slowly said Said: "I think it's time for you to speak out. Let us understand the origin of the treasure map in detail and know what kind of opponent we will face. Isn't this request too much?"

Susanna bit her lip: "Okay..."

"You don't need to answer me in a hurry. You have plenty of time anyway, so you can think about it carefully." An Fei interrupted Susanna: "Let's go out, Chris, use the magic circle to seal the corridor outside. I guess those orcs won’t give up.”

Speaking of those orcs, Chris couldn't help but sigh: "Okay!"

But when everyone returned from the tunnel to the cave, the orcs had stopped working. They gathered together in twos and threes and talked in low voices. When they saw An Fei and others walking out of the 'accident scene', all eyes turned to this direction, the look in his eyes is very complicated.

The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant! Can a snake swallow an elephant? It certainly can’t be swallowed, so why should it be swallowed? Because greed is never-ending!

Few people can overcome this influence, and An Fei is no exception! When he first came to this world, An Fei just wanted to kill Yagor so that he could live safely! But after getting to know Sol and Ernest, and getting to know the world, An Fei also had other thoughts. For example, he wanted martial arts to shine in this world, and he wanted to compete with those at the top. Strong men compete with each other. For example, he feels that he should do something instead of living alone in a corner and live a peaceful and carefree life. That is safe, but it is too boring...

The same goes for the orcs. Just yesterday, they were still ecstatic about a gold coin a day. They almost suspected that they were dreaming. However, they heard the news that their companions had discovered the treasure, and saw with their own eyes the large amount of gold coins their companions had brought back. Gold coins, they suddenly felt that An Fei was so stingy and stingy, only one gold coin... They discovered the treasure first, and they thought they were qualified to get a share. If it weren't for the huge difference in strength, maybe there would have been a long time ago. There was a riot!

"Sanchez, let them go out and rest for three days. They won't have to work anymore. Well, each person will be given three gold coins, and they will be paid for working and resting for me." An Fei glanced around and said slowly.

"Okay." Sanchez agreed and shouted loudly: "Get out, get out, don't stay here."

After listening to Sanchez's words, the orcs looked at each other and didn't even move. Apparently they wanted to continue to stay in the cave. Sometimes greed can also bring people courage. They even forgot about the killings of An Fei and others a few days ago. All that flashed in their eyes and minds was the light of gold coins.

"Didn't you hear me? Get out of here!" Sanchez was a little angry. He had a feeling that since the accident occurred during the construction, these orcs have become very hateful, always using that kind of ghostly laughter. He looks at you secretly and disobeys orders with a negative attitude.

The orcs couldn't sit still, so they slowly stood up and walked out. Some of them even whispered something in the orc language. Judging from their expressions at that time, they seemed to be cursing. An Fei snorted coldly, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and then calmed down again.
