Xia Ya nodded, and he turned the knob to the "Lack of Moon" scale again.
This time, when the door slowly opened, it was still the small enclosed space inside.
Xia Ya became more and more anxious. He tried several scales on the knob. There were six scales in total. Every time the door was opened, it was the same small closed space, empty and without anything.
"What does that mean?!"
At the end of the passage, it took so much effort to open this damn door, and there is such a small room with nothing inside? !
Leo put forward his own opinion: this is not like a warehouse, because the room inside is too small, only a few meters wide, such a small place, can't put anything, and it looks from such a long underground passage all the way. Come, if there is a warehouse at the end of such a long passage, it must be a very important place, it cannot be just such a small room that does not seem to have many uses.
"The key is, where did Galin and the others go!"
Xia stood up and took a few steps anxiously.
"You need to calm down, boy."
Dora's voice came in my mind: "Calm down and think with your head! Anxiety doesn't help the current situation."
think…
Charya took a deep breath.
Well, let's assume... well, not an assumption, but a certainty! Certainly, this place was built by ancient goblins, a race with a high degree of civilization.
aisle... gate...
"Perhaps... This door is not as simple as we imagined, maybe this is an existence similar to a magic teleportation array." Xia suddenly had an idea and stared at Dodo Luo: "Dodo, you are a magician. , How much do you know about the magic teleportation array?"
Magic teleportation array
Duoduo's eyes lit up: "Ah, it's very possible. Maybe... the small room inside is a magic circle. After people enter, when the door is closed again, the magic circle inside activates, and the people who enter are sent to other places. But sir... I don't know much about magic circles, because magic circles belong to the field that only advanced magicians can master. Magic circles require a deep understanding and mastery of magic knowledge, and they need to be proficient in several different magics. It is an advanced technology that can only be achieved by the repulsion and fusion of magic. The only thing I know is that the construction of the magic circle requires enough magic crystals to provide magic power, and also requires precise operation, and... "
Speaking of this, Dotolo grimaced: "There is a problem that I can't understand. All magic is highly repellent to metal! But this door is made of iron essence! Iron essence is the purest. Metal in its purest form. It doesn't make sense from a magical theory."
After a pause, Dodoro added: "However, I think your guess, sir, that this may be a 'transportation array' is very reasonable. Maybe..."
"Let's go in and try it ourselves." Xia sighed.
He stopped, looked at all the people in front of him, and thought for a while: "We can't all go in... God knows what's going on inside, if everyone goes in, if they can't come out, then everyone will It's all trapped inside! I need someone to stay outside! If something goes wrong, at least there's a chance to save the people inside! This is a silver lining!"
The people around now, in addition to Char and Dodoro, there are witch doctors and ten spear throwing warriors among the Zaku people.
Galin and his axe warriors had disappeared inside the door.
The problem that Char is facing is... He either doesn't bring the witch doctor, or he has to go in by himself and Dodoro. Because only witch doctors can speak the Byzantine language.
"Okay, you and I go in, otherwise, I will bring other Zaku warriors and can't communicate with them." Xia Ya sighed, and he began to regret letting A Cai go back.
"Leave two Zaku warriors, and everyone else goes in with me!"
Xia chatted with Tang for a while, and made a final plan: he took out a small hourglass, which could be used as a time-calculating tool.
"Every three turns is about an hour as you Byzantines say." This is Leo's introduction.
Then the rest is easy.
Assuming that this door is really a teleportation array, then everyone may need to come back through this door.
"The two people left outside are guarding this door. I need you to open the door every hour! Remember, turn the knob to the scale of 'Red Moon'! Make no mistake! Every other Time, open the door once!"
Char's order was passed to the two Zaku warriors who were ordered to stay.
Immediately, he turned the knob to the scale of "Red Moon" again. When the door slowly opened, Xiaya walked in quickly without hesitation, followed by Dodoro, the witch doctor, and others. Eight Zaku throwing spear warriors.
The room inside was not big, and after a dozen people walked in, it seemed a bit crowded.
When the door was closed again this time, everyone's faces were somewhat nervous—except, the witch doctor had that grimace on her face, but her eyes flickered a little, revealing some of her inner tension degree.
Finally, after the door was completely closed, all of a sudden, everyone felt as if their feet were shaking, and this process only lasted for about a few breaths. This feels a little strange, everyone is clearly standing in this small closed room, but it seems like...
"Master, I'm a little dizzy..." Dodo Luo's face turned pale.
Xia Ya also felt it, it seemed to be a light and airy feeling...
Just when he was about to speak, suddenly, the door in front of him opened!
Suddenly a Zaku warrior called out, but Xiaya raised his hand: "Shut up!"
When the door in front of you slowly opened...
"Get out! Get out!"
Xia Ya took the lead and jumped out first. When everyone came out, with the light on the staff that the witch doctor looked at, he could see the place outside clearly. Many people made the same move subconsciously: deeply Take a breath.
"my God!!"

"Boss, I got it right."
A man rushed into the tavern. He was wearing leather armor, his head was covered in oil and sweat, his face was full of sturdy smell, and he had a saber hanging from his waist. This man shouted loudly as soon as he entered the tavern. His goal was very clear. He was sitting at the innermost table in the tavern.
In the morning, there are few customers in the tavern. Behind the bar, One-Eyed with a pirate hood was wiping a wine glass with a rag. After wiping a wine glass, he opened his mouth, pulled out a gold tooth, wiped it twice with a rag, and put it back in again. When he got to his mouth, he muttered dissatisfiedly, and looked at the person sitting at the innermost table.
The old one-eyed had reason to be dissatisfied. He was woken up by the loud knock on the door early in the morning—he was usually closed in the morning. The old one-eyed habit was known to the whole Wildfire Town. But these guys are obviously outsiders. From the looks of these guys, they are either a new group of mercenaries, or they are horse thieves who came to Wildfire Town to find out the news...
Hmph, mercenaries or horse thieves, no matter what kind of people they are, are not uncommon in Wildfire Town.
But for the sake of the gold coins that these guys threw out, the old one-eyed still opened the door and let these guys come in and drink.
These foreign guys have always been very generous.
The man who rushed in was obviously going out to find out some news, and as he came back, the people sitting at the table suddenly shouted, and some people laughed: "Haha! You are too late, the boss is waiting. Hurry up!"
"Yeah! The boss has asked eight times why you haven't come back yet!"
Amidst the giggling voices, a gruff voice shouted, "Shut up for me!"
Immediately, a majestic figure stood up, and his majestic figure stood out among the sturdy men beside him.
And this guy... Well, she's none other than the big sissy, and so is Lord Nene.
Nene looked at the returning subordinate, and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at the busy one-eyed behind the bar, before frowning: "I found something, don't talk nonsense, just say it!"
The man who came back first grabbed a wine glass on the table, no matter who it was, he poured it down first, let out a long sigh, and said with a smile, "Boss, it seems that your sweetheart is here. Wildfire is quite famous."
He smiled, and in his dissatisfied eyes, he didn't dare to make trouble, and said honestly: "Many people in Wildfire Town have heard of his name, it seems that he grew up here. Well. , Just a few days ago, he once recruited a group of mercenaries here, and then took the brigade to Wildfire Field... That's when we met him."
"It's all old news." Nene shook his head: "We all know this, and we also met him on the Wildfire Field... What I want to know is, has he come back? It's been so many days, and there's no news at all?"
"No." The horse thief who went out to inquire about the news shook his head: "The mercenary group that went out with him has not come back, but a few guys brought some prisoners back a few days ago, but they just passed by and moved towards Mo. I went to Er County, but their brigade never came back. I went to the town where the mercenaries gathered and asked, and the news was correct."
Nene frowned.
Didn't come back
It has been so many days, will he encounter any trouble
"There is news that they went out to the goblin's territory, and went to the red wilderness. I don't think there should be any trouble. Those goblins are famous for bullying the weak and afraid of the tough. They have such a large group of people and so many mercenary guards, Goblins will run away if they smell it from a distance."
Seeing that Nei Nei's expression was not good, the man quickly comforted him a few words.
Nene shook his head: "Is there anything else to gain?"
The person who went out to inquire about the news smiled: "I don't have any news about your sweetheart, but I have heard a lot of other interesting things, all of which are domestic affairs of the Byzantine Empire. The recent rumors are very big, I heard The emperor and the governors of the regional military districts have already fought, the Armenian governor has raised his army, the army has moved to the border of the imperial capital, and confronted the imperial central city guard at an acropolis in Osgilia. The governors of various places, I heard that many have already raised their troops, and some governors have directly sent troops to attack the nearby counties... This time the movement is really not small!"
Nene snorted, with a look of disdain: "I don't care about the Byzantine Empire. We are in the Wildfire Plain now, and the Byzantine affairs have nothing to do with us. What I want to know is Xia... That guy, what the hell is he? Where did you go?"
One-eyed behind the counter in the distance suddenly heard these guys mention the name "Xia Ya", One-eyed seemed to be stunned for a moment, and subconsciously raised his eyelids to look at these guys.
But he didn't make a sound, then lowered his head and continued to wipe his glass.
At this moment, the door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open, a gust of wind blew in, and then a figure slowly walked into the door.
One-eyed looked up and was stunned.
It was a woman who came in, wearing a black robe, the cloak was full of dust, and the boots were also full of mud, obviously after a long journey.
This woman has long purple hair, which is very eye-catching, and her well-proportioned and tall figure is looming under the robe. Suddenly, the one-eyed man couldn't help but take a second glance, but when he saw the woman's back Thing, immediately withdrew his eyes carefully!
This woman carried a peculiar big bow on her back. She had been in Wildfire Town for so many years with one eye and had seen the vision of countless warriors. She immediately saw the peculiarity of the big bow, the inverted blade on the horn, Obviously not for decoration, but to show that this bow has a certain ability to fight at close range! And the color of the bowstring is obviously not an ordinary thing. Such a bow must be pulled with great strength.
People who can use this strange weapon are usually masters!
One-eyed immediately put on a polite look: "Come in, dear guest, do you want two drinks?"
When he saw the other's face, he was stunned with one eye. On the other's face, half an iron face covered half of his face, while the exposed half had fair and delicate skin, soft and beautiful outlines, clearly A stunning face.
(Unfortunately, such a beautiful face is half blocked.) One-eyed sighed inwardly.
"Food, water. Hot."
The visitor walked to the counter, slapped a gold coin on the counter, glanced at it with one eye, and was stunned for a moment. Because this is not a Byzantine gold coin, but an Odin gold coin.
Obviously, this guest is from the Odin Empire.
However, in Wildfire Town, Odin gold coins are not uncommon. One-eyed grabbed it and bit it in his mouth, and then said with a wide-eyed smile: "Don't worry, I have the best things here, the broth I just made in the morning, all It's the best mutton stewed to a pulp, and you're guaranteed to be satisfied."
This woman who came in, without a doubt, was naturally Via!
Via took a deep breath, glanced at the one-eyed man behind the counter, and said in a low voice, "How can I buy a horse in this town? My horse is exhausted, I need two horses that can run fast. Horse! The price doesn't matter, it's best to get it before noon today."
One-eyed was stunned for a while, and smiled bitterly: "This... This guest, Ma Shi is at the gate of the city..."
"I know." Via snorted: "But the horse market is not open today. I know that the horse market here trades every three days, but I can't wait for three days! I'm leaving today."
Saying that, she took out another gold coin and threw it on the table.
The only eye of the one-eyed suddenly lit up, and he quickly grabbed the gold coin and stuffed it into his arms: "You're lucky, ma'am, in the horse shed at the back of my shop, there happened to be two horses that I only had last month. The horses I bought were mortgaged by two mercenaries who gambled and lost money, but you are lucky, they can't come back and redeem them, because those two unlucky ghosts heard that they were guarding a merchant a few days ago. The team encountered a horse thief on the way to Odin and was killed. I was wondering what to do with those two horses... These horses cost me a lot of fodder."
One-eyed immediately took Via into the tavern, lifted a curtain, and walked to the courtyard inside the tavern.
When passing by the innermost table in the lobby of the tavern, Via's eyes swept coldly at the table of horse thieves in Nene. Her sharp eyes suddenly alarmed Nene, and several horse thieves saw Via's strange dress. , and Wea looked limping and strange when walking, and was about to speak, and some were brave enough to whistle and tease, but Nei suddenly raised her hand: "Shut up!"
She stared at Via, and after Via walked into the curtain, Nene looked at some of her subordinates, and said coldly, "Be honest, this woman is a very powerful expert. Don't mess with her. necessary trouble."
Via followed One Eye into the back yard and came to the stable.
One-Eyed didn't lie, there were indeed two horses in his stable, but Via only glanced at it and frowned, obviously very dissatisfied.
These were two very ordinary bad horses, and one of them was obviously very old. But there is no way for one-eyed. These two horses were won from two ordinary mercenaries. Can you expect two ordinary mercenaries to have any good horses
But Via saw the other side of the stable, and her eyes lit up: "Who are those horses?"
One-eyed was stunned for a while, and he immediately caught the mind of this strange woman, wondering: "These horses...are those of the customers in the store..."
Via nodded. These horses, as you can see, are quite good war horses.
When Nene and a few horse thieves were drinking in the shop, Via suddenly came out of it. She walked to the table of the horse thieves with strange steps, stood there coldly, and suddenly All the horse thieves closed their mouths and looked up at the woman.
Snapped!
A handful of gold coins were thrown into the bowl on the table.
"These gold coins are enough to buy five horses. I only need two."
Via's cold tone.
Nene and the horse thieves immediately understood the meaning of this woman, and everyone did not speak, but looked at their leader.
Nene snorted, the sturdy Nene is not a good person, she sneered: "We are not horse dealers."
Via pondered for a while, then took out a few more gold coins and threw them on the table: "This is the highest price I can pay."
There are at least twenty gold coins on the table. So many gold coins are not a small amount of money for anyone. If they are used to buy horses, even a trained warhorse is enough to buy seven or eight.
But unfortunately, what Via met was Nene, a lady Nene who was also full of personality.
"I'll count to ten, take your gold coins and walk away." Nene raised her eyebrows.
There was still no expression on Via's face, she just sighed: "I don't want to hurt anyone."
This is really arrogant!
Nene snorted, with a sullen look on her face, and a horse thief called out: "Little girl, don't make trouble, I see you..."
Before the horse thief finished speaking, the whole person left the stool and flew out directly. With a bang, he landed on the corner of the wall!
This time all the horse thieves made a noise, but when the first horse thief pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, his body flew out again!
No one even saw Via's actions! !
"Stop it all!!" Nene shouted and slammed the table hard.
With a snap, all the horse thieves sat back, but they all stared at Wea with fierce eyes - this woman is really weird, but the horse thieves will not give in... Each of them believes that their leader, Nene The strength of the eldest!
"I don't like nonsense." Nene stared at Via, she pressed a heavy sword on the table, put her hand on the scabbard, and sneered: "Do you want a horse? Yes! Hit! Win me, those horses in the back are as you choose!"
When the other horse thieves heard it, they immediately stood up and dispersed.
Via stared at Nene, the opponent in front of him obviously had a strong momentum. Although he had never fought, he was obviously not weak.
Via's mouth twitched, and she glanced at the door: "Is it an agreement?"
Nene grabbed the epee: "My words always count!"
"I want that black horse, and another red one."
Via's tone was still cold, but her words made Nene laugh in anger.
The black horse is Nene's mount, and the red one is owned by another horse thief leader. These two horses are obviously the best of all horses.
This woman with an iron face is actually so arrogant? !
※※※
"Oh, we're going to fight again." One Eye immediately hid behind the bar and sighed. Open a tavern in Wildfire Town, where the folk customs are sturdy, and there are too many scenes of drawing swords against each other if they disagree. He was very experienced and immediately put away the wine bottles on the bar, and then risked his waist to hide under the bar, only showing half of his head.
At this time, a small door behind the bar leading to the kitchen at the back was pushed open, and a stout woman came out and approached One Eye: "What's the matter?"
One-eyed turned his head, smiled bitterly, and lowered his voice: "What else can I do? It's time to start."
The woman's eyes widened, she looked like a standard middle-aged woman, with a fat body, a bloated waist, thick hands and big feet, a coarse gown, disheveled hair, dark and rough skin, with a face with a stern look on her face. The healthy rosy luster left by labor, looks about forty years old.
There is no doubt that this woman is obviously the legendary... Aunt Sofia.
No matter how she looked at this woman, she was a woman of the most standard ordinary family, and even her appearance was the standard "you can't find it if you throw it in the crowd".
She and One Eye squatted behind the bar together, watching the two sides in the tavern already fighting with each other, and the atmosphere solidified to the extreme.
"It looks like these guys are very rich, and they broke things in a while, please ask for more compensation." Sofia grinned.
But just as she said this with a smile, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
A bunch of surprised eyes stared at Nene who was standing there holding a heavy sword.
To be precise, this Aunt Sofia, she was staring at Nene's wrist!
On Nei's wrist, she wears a unique bracelet.
And this bracelet is the biggest pain in my heart, the magic curse bracelet from Merlin that can't go anywhere no matter what! !
At this moment, Sofia's face suddenly became a little strange.
Then, the woman's eyes suddenly became full of interest.
"Oh, look, I read it right... What did I see? I haven't seen this thing in years."
After saying that, the bloated middle-aged woman suddenly laughed, and she laughed very happily.
※※※
"Old, sir, I read it right."
Duoduo's eyes widened, his mouth opened, and his saliva was about to flow out. He subconsciously touched his mouth: "Master, pinch me, I'm not dreaming!"
But Xia Ya didn't answer him. In fact, including Xia Ya and those Zaku people, all held their breaths and stared at the scene in front of them.
Because the scene in front of you is really shocking! !
This is a huge cave with a dome-shaped top, and the height from the ground is at least tens of meters away, and the area of this cave can no longer be estimated.
Right at the door of this gate, next to it is a huge sign about the height of one person. The sign is obviously made of metal, but for some reason, there is no trace of rust on it.
And on this sign, there are only a few crooked text symbols, which are obviously the text of ancient goblins.
Everyone else was watching the shocking scene in front of them, but Xia Ya didn't. His eyes were fixed on the goblin text on the sign.
Because the text above is...
"Creation District"! ! ! ! !
