Tedion picked up the other end of the hammer ball and held the triangular handle with his hand. He was about to walk up and put away the hammer ball. Unexpectedly, Daphne behind him suddenly shouted: "Come back quickly!"

Tedain immediately stopped moving forward and retreated with all his strength. After a few steps, he bumped into a soft body. "Ouch!" A woman's voice of pain penetrated into Tedain's ears. En was stunned and immediately knew that it was Daphne's voice. He must have bumped into Daphne who was moving forward when he was retreating.

Without warning, Daphne pressed her chest tightly against Tedion's back. Although Tedion was nearly ten years younger than her, Daphne's face still turned red. She quickly took a step back and then used A very calm voice said: "This trap is not fully triggered. I believe it must have a chain triggering device."

Tedion nodded numbly. Although he and Daphne were only in contact with each other, the feeling from Tedion's back in that short moment still made him haunted. At this moment, Tedion was like a walking zombie, mechanically following Daphne's instructions, slowly pulling back the chain, and then throwing it out again.

The iron hammer landed not far from Tedain. Due to his distraction, the hammer did not reach a certain speed when it was released. How could he be prepared to hit the target without mistake

This result obviously made Daphne very dissatisfied. She frowned, pushed Tedion with her hand, and whispered: "Be serious, what are you thinking about?" As the words came out, Daphne suddenly woke up, and a sudden appearance appeared on her face. Looking embarrassed.

Tedion was woken up by Daphne's push without force. He immediately thought that now was not the time to ignore his thoughts. He was facing a murderous trap. A little negligence would lead to death.

So Tedain blushed and said without daring to look back: "I understand, just step back a little, and I'll come again."

Soon, the hammer flew out again with a whistling sound. This time, the hammer was dropped between Tedain and the newly formed Feather Arrow Forest. Only the sound of mechanical rotation was heard. This large trap once again Being touched, another wave of feather arrows shot out and fell densely on the ground.

Terdain was only three steps away from the second "Feather Arrow Forest" formed, and the air fluctuations caused by the arrows even blew across his face. Tedion looked at the ground in front of him. The floor of the corridor was paved with stone slabs, but these feather arrows could actually stand upright on the stone slabs, forming a "forest". Tedion could clearly see the arrowheads of those arrows. How deeply inserted into the stone slab was enough to let him know how powerful these feather arrows are. If they hit a person, they will definitely penetrate him immediately. No matter how powerful Pastor Dennis is, his faith in the gods of light is still there. No matter how pious you are, there is probably nothing you can do.

Tedion waited for a while and saw that no arrows were shot. He asked Daphne behind him in a low voice: "What should we do now?" With the lesson just learned, Tedion did not dare to act rashly, so he let Daphne, the best in the team, Come and take charge.

At Daphne's signal, Tedion picked up the iron hammer again and again and threw it towards the location of the large mechanical trap. Deadly arrows were sprayed out from both sides of the corridor one after another, covering five or six meters in front and back. range.

Finally, after Tedion threw the iron hammer for the seventh time, no more arrows were shot. Daphne approached the trap and took a closer look. After confirming that the large mechanical trap had completely failed, she stood up and nodded to Berry behind her, indicating that she could move forward.

Bury breathed a sigh of relief, then pursed his lips at Mark, who walked up with the warhammer in his hand and began to use his weapons to carve out a path in the "forest" formed by the arrows for his companions. walk.

These interlocking feather arrows are all made of hard fine steel, which caused Mark a lot of trouble because they were deeply embedded in the stone slab. Mark had to pay a huge amount for every meter he advanced in the "Feather Arrow Forest" physical strength.

The strong Mark was panting from exhaustion. Behind him was a "road" that only one person could barely pass. Others slowly passed along this road in turn.

"Hoo~hoo~hoo" The huge gate knife kept swinging in the corridor. The top of the gate knife was tied to the top of the corridor by an iron chain as thick as an arm.

Not far away, Tedain was lying on the ground with his head in his hands. He did not expect that the trap turned out to be a knife that was as big as a giant shield. When he used the hammer to trigger the mechanism, the knife suddenly flew from the top of the corridor. He was so frightened that he immediately dropped the hammer in his hand and lay on the ground without grace. But fortunately, due to the length of the chain linking the knife and the height of the channel, the knife did not hurt himself, but Tedion absolutely believed that if he stepped on it instead of using a 10-meter-long hammer to trigger it, he would surely It turns into two pieces, faster than a magician using any mirror technique.

After finally waiting for the knife to stop and hang there, Tedain supported the ground with both hands and slowly climbed up. Daphne's voice came to her ears: "Okay, the trap is no longer effective, everyone passes carefully."

Tedion turned sideways and rubbed between the knife and the corridor wall. He looked up at the top of the passage. There was a deep crack there, which should be where the knife was originally stored. When the mechanism was triggered, , the thing restricting the knife failed, so the knife fell at an extremely fast speed. Due to the chain connection, the gate knife cannot fall to the ground. Instead, it keeps swinging in the middle of the corridor under the traction of the chain. The sharp blade and huge impact form a perfect murder trap.

Tedain shook his head. He kept cursing the guys who designed these murder traps. He casually took off the water bag tied around his waist and raised his neck to take a sip of water. But no matter how hard Tedion tried, not a drop of water fell out of the shriveled water bag, not even a drop.

A small water bag was handed in front of Tedaine. As soon as Tedaine saw those hands, she knew that her owner was Daphne.

"I have some more here, drink it all."

Tedain felt a little excited, it turned out that Daphne still cared about him. Tedain took the water bag and drank the water in it. After drinking the water, Tedion's spirit was lifted. He wiped the water stains on his mouth with his sleeve, and suddenly remembered one thing, that is, Daphne hadn't drank water yet. Tedion looked at it awkwardly. Daphne didn't know what to say in front of her.

"I'm not thirsty." Daphne smiled at Tedain and said to him in relief: "If you are tired, we might as well take a rest."

Daphne said these considerate words, which made Tedion feel even more embarrassed. He turned to look at Bury, and was about to open his mouth to ask for supplies for his group leader. He remembered that there were a lot of things in the backpack that Mark was carrying. Unexpectedly, before he spoke, he heard Bury say in a very slow tone: "The things Mark has on him can only last us for one day. Those are the provisions we keep for when we leave. Unless it is a last resort..."

Tedion was stunned for a moment. He and Daphne had been eliminating traps in front of them and had not noticed the consumption of supplies. When he heard what Burry said, Tedion thought that he and his party had been in this damp, dark place for eight full months. sky.
