Ka Ka Ka.
With the sound of gears turning, a stone slab on the flat ground in front of the fountain began to vibrate, and slowly sank downward.
After a while, a desktop-sized entrance appeared on the slate square. Looking from the entrance, the slanting stairs were deep and deep, and it was unknown where it led.
Jijir looked at the red dragon. This treasure house was built in the shape of a human being, and the huge body of the red dragon could not enter it.
Jose looked around, the mournful wind was blowing the dust on the ground, the skull passing through the clearing was whimpering like crying, but there was no moving object or sound other than that.
He relieved himself, lifted the group invisibility technique, and quickly uttered the spell in his mouth.
Body reduction surgery!
The size reduction technique is recorded in the Dragon's Legacy. It is specially used to solve the situation where the dragons pass through narrow spaces. It can shrink the giant dragon comparable to a super large truck to the size of a cat. The degree of reduction is directly proportional to the strength of the dragon itself. relevant.
Twenty years ago, Jose could only shrink to the size of a tiger in the face of the low blood-tooth mine. At this time, he can already shrink to the extreme.
It could be done, but it wasn't necessary, Jose still only shrunk his body down to the size of a tiger, which was enough to pass through the entrance.
"Hurry up, I'm not sure how long those unlucky ones can last, if the devil comes back, there will be a little trouble."
That's right, the army of hundreds of demons led by the top demons under the two legends of the Balrog and the Six-armed Snake Demon is just a little trouble for the Red Dragon at this time.
It may be difficult to kill them all, but if he wants to go with all his heart, then no one can stop him.
Ji Jier didn't talk nonsense, took the lead up the stairs, and walked ahead to explore the way.
As a star pirate, the githyanki are also immortal species. Coupled with the unique institutional environment of militarism, Jiji has received various trainings since childhood.
After the red dragon and the githyanki entered the underground passage for a while, a vague figure jumped down from the second floor of a distant building, and arrived at the entrance of the tunnel in front of the fountain at a very fast speed, submerged in it.
On the other side, in the underground space where the oil lamps were flickering, Jose and his githyanki allies walked through the slanted stairs all the way down, about 200 meters deep underground.
Perhaps out of self-confidence in their own national power, they did not think that anyone could break through the royal city and find the location of the treasure house. No traps were found on the steps in the treasure house.
It wasn't until Yilong and Yilong came to the door at the end of the passage and checked the structure of the door that they knew the real reason why there were no traps outside.
"Your Excellency Jose, this door is a magic secret door that needs a specific spell to open," Jigil felt a little headache.
If there is a keyhole or something, he can still try his lockpicking skills, but the magic secret door opened by the magic spell is beyond his ability.
Jose frowned slightly. Even in Tedanol, the magic secret door is a very high-standard anti-theft facility.
Now, he has three options.
First, the chameleon team went straight to the location of the fountain, presumably because they knew something about this place, and went outside to capture them back to see if they could find out how to enter the treasure house.
Second, for breaking the door violently, any material has its own tolerance limit. The quality of the material of the magic secret door here is only above the standard, and there is the possibility of breaking open violently.
Third, crack it yourself, which will test Jose's magic level.
First of all, Jose directly ruled out violent breaking.
The risk of breaking open violently is too high, and no one knows what anti-theft settings have been made inside. It is not easy to cause the treasure house space to collapse, and it is afraid of a direct explosion, or other traps or something.
Thinking slightly in his mind, he quickly made a decision, first try to see if he can crack it, and if it doesn't work, he will go and catch the chameleon team that is being hunted down by demons.
"Get out of the way, let me do it."
"You?" Jijill felt a little skeptical.
The giant dragon is a magical creature, and casting spells is as instinctive as drinking water and eating, but in terms of understanding magic, the red dragon may not be as good as his professionally trained half-baby. After all, there is still a certain difference between shooting and understanding gun manufacturing.
Well, even if it is a bit special, it still doesn't get rid of the racial character of the red dragon's blind self-confidence.
Thinking of this, Ji Jier stood aside, raised his eyebrows and watched the red dragon step forward, put the dragon's claws on the secret door, and closed his eyes.
Oh, it really looks like that.
Gradually, Jijir's face became more relaxed, and he looked at the red dragon in surprise, and he felt the magic wave on the door.
The red dragon actually hooked the magic power of the secret door? !
Like magic items, magic secret doors are essentially driven by magic circles, and the magic power in magic circles is normally hidden inside the magic circles.
The occurrence of magic power fluctuations means that the red dragon has discovered the magic circle hidden inside the metal body, and has activated the magic power in the magic circle.
It also means that the red dragon does not completely rely on racial advantages, and it is used by dragons who do not have their own understanding of magic.
Ji Jier no longer had the attitude of watching a show, he cheered up, looked nervously at the red dragon with closed eyes, and silently prayed in his heart that the red dragon would succeed.
In fact, Jose's progress was faster than Gigil's imagined. He not only found the magic circle inside the metal secret door, but also figured out the operation route of the magic circle.
But figuring out the operation route of the magic circle is only the beginning, and the next crack will really test Jose's magic level.
What Yilong and Yiren didn't know was that in the shadow of the oil lamp, a pair of eyes aimed at them from time to time.
The moment he saw the magic secret door, the legendary thief Uggart clenched his dagger and was ready to attack.
Only mages and highly skilled thieves can hope to crack the magic secret door. A half-baked githyanki and a red dragon on the warlock side are absolutely impossible.
At least Wuget thought so before, but soon, he changed his view, pressed the idea of attacking, and waited patiently.
Time passed little by little in silence.
More than ten minutes later, a burst of magic power erupted from the magic secret door. The magic power was like a balloon that had been exploded. It was released very quickly at first, but soon slowed down and returned to calm.
"call!"
Jose let out a long breath, and pushed the door in front of him.
Crunch~!
The magic secret door that was closed so hard to see was pushed open because the red dragon destroyed the magic circle inside the magic secret door. The process was like dismantling a time bomb. If a mistake triggers the defense mechanism of the treasure house, the consequences will be unpredictable.
It worked!
On the side, Ji Jier was shocked, looking at the red dragon with incredible eyes.
For a long time, in his impression, the Red Dragon was a powerful fighter, or to put it bluntly, a reckless man with muscles in his head.
However, the reckless man in this impression has just solved a high-magic technology problem in front of him, just like a modern person sees a boxing champion sitting in front of a computer and typing on the keyboard, successfully breaking through the network defense line of the Hexagon Building in Eagle Country.
"What are you doing in a daze! Let's go!"
"Ah? Oh!" Jijier was awakened by the voice of the red dragon, and followed the red dragon into the open door of the treasure house.
Turning a corner, José stopped suddenly, his mouth opened wide in surprise, his red face was reflected golden by the shining gold.
In the huge underground space wrapped in metal, there are hills of gold coins piled up like mountains, among which are mixed with some valuables such as gems and pearls of various colors.
Jose calculated that compared with the gold mountain he piled in the Molten Core, the gold mountain here is higher and wider, and it is estimated to be ten times his own collection.
However, gold and precious stones are not the most valuable items here. There are eight white marble stone platforms in a row on the edge of the treasure house, and treasure boxes of different sizes are placed on the eight stone platforms.
The treasure box that is just a container is inlaid with large gemstones, which makes people look forward to the contents of the treasure box even more.
One dragon and one person looked at each other and walked straight to the treasure box.
Excited, Jijil jumped straight over the first treasure box, walked to the second treasure box, opened the treasure box and saw the contents inside with ecstasy.
"Finally found it! Gith Silver Blade!"
Jijir reached out and took out the Gith silver blade in the treasure box, and looked at it in his hand.
Jose also took a look at the well-known signature weapon of the star pirates - the Silver Blade of Gith. Although there is a word "blade" in the name, it is actually a piece of metal like a silver brick.
This is the secret of the Silver Blade of Gith. You will never know what form it will take and where it will be placed among the Githyanki.
Ji Jier input spiritual energy into the Gith silver blade, and the silver metal block suddenly seemed to come to life, and turned into a long arc-blade knife in an instant, and then the long knife squirmed into a spear.
In the hands of Gigil, the Gith silver blade changed into various forms, turning into a spear for a while, turning into a meteor hammer for a while, and changing back to the silver blade state most suitable for Githyankis.
Something magical, like liquid metal in a sci-fi movie.
Jose, who was on the sidelines, made an evaluation of Gith Silver Blade in his heart. Facing the legendary weapon, it is impossible to say that he has no greed at all, but he can control his greed very well.
The silver blade of Gith was evaluated as a legendary weapon, mainly because of its magic, free shape change, very sharp, and self-healing after damage.
There is no magic ability, and it needs to be used with psionic power, which has great limitations.
The Silver Blade of Guise turned into a silver wristband, which was put on Jigil's wrist: "Your Excellency Jose, according to the agreement, I have taken back the Silver Blade of Guise."
Jose nodded. The Silver Blade of Gith was a deadly weapon in the hands of the Githyanki, but it was just a lump of metal in his own hands, so he had no idea.
He casually picked up the treasure box placed on the first stone platform, opened the treasure box, his face darkened, it was actually empty, but he caught a glimpse of the indentation on the gold cloth inside the treasure box.
Obviously, the treasure box used to contain something, but it was taken away.
After thinking about it for a while, Jose roughly understood the reason of the matter.
Facing the threat of the abyss, the natives of this world had to concentrate all their strength to fight against the demons, and the treasures in the treasure box were also taken out and given to the strong to use, and transformed into actual combat power.
Only treasures such as the Silver Blade of Gith, which have harsh usage conditions and cannot be found by users, will be left in the treasury to eat ashes.
Um? !
Jose woke up suddenly, startled by his own thought, and looked at the remaining six treasure boxes.
Please do not…
Quickly jumping over Jiji, Jose picked up the third treasure box and opened it.
empty!
Move horizontally and open the fourth treasure box.
Still empty!
the fifth!
empty!
…
Picking up the seventh treasure box, Jose's expression eased a little, and he felt something rolling inside the box.
Thank goodness it wasn't empty at last.
Opening the treasure box, Jose saw a scroll tied with a string, and immediately closed the treasure box.
"A scroll, it belongs to me."
As he spoke, Jose put the scroll and the treasure box into the dimensional bag, picked up the eighth treasure box next to it, and opened it to see that it was still a scroll.
"It's still a scroll, this will be your reward for summoning me last time, is there any problem?"
Although the tone was inquiring, it was clear that the Red Dragon did not intend to listen to the opinion of the person being questioned. Before Jijir opened his mouth and had time to speak, the Red Dragon took the scroll and the treasure box into his pocket.
Ji-gil shrugged at this and turned to face Jinshan.
"Your Excellency Jose, pretend together, do you have any objections?"
"No comment."
Even though Jose had brought all the dimensional bags he could collect when he came, the gold mountain here was still far beyond the limit he could carry, so he naturally agreed to the proposal to put it together with allies.
"Separate outfits!"
One dragon and one person separated immediately, and began to store treasures from both ends of the treasure house.
In the shadows at the door, the legendary thief Wuget saw a mountain of wealth with one dragon and one person separately, and a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.
pretend! pretend! It's all mine in the end anyway!
From the moment he entered the underground passage, in Wuget's eyes, one dragon, one person and the treasures in the treasure house were all in his pocket.
How time-saving and labor-saving it is to wait for the two to fill up the containers on their bodies, then kill the two, and directly take away the belongings that the two have worked so hard to pack.
Wu Gete had wishful thinking in his heart, imagining the happy life after getting rich.
If I can enslave the red dragon, I would need one more mount, but unfortunately I am not a spellcaster.
Suddenly, his face changed suddenly, and he sensed a violent aura approaching from a distance.
demon!
Legendary Demon!
Wu Gete didn't dare to wait, and immediately rushed to the red dragon who was also awakened.
Just now, he saw that the red dragon took two treasure boxes, which were more valuable.
At the same time that the Legendary Thief sensed the publicity aura rapidly approaching from a distance, Jose, who was storing his belongings, also sensed it.
"Go! There are legends..."
Just as he was reminding his allies, Jose suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and a deadly sense of crisis rushed from the soles of his feet to his forehead.
Before he had time to react, he activated [Dana's Shield] and [Phoenix Heart] at the same time. Fierce flames swept in all directions, and the legendary thief holding a dagger in a stabbing shape suddenly appeared in the flames.
At this moment, the tip of the legendary thief's matte dagger touched the red dragon's scales.
The sharp matte dagger opened the blood groove, and the blood groove was stained with an ominous dark red, and it was unknown whether it was the poison smeared, or the remnants of the unlucky guy who died under the dagger.
Thanks to Xiao Tang 246 for the 100 coins, Guying Lingtian for the 100 coins, Moustache Meng for the 100 coins, Ye Yayla for the 100 coins, Mao Canggan for the 100 coins, and the Garden of God’s Light for the 100 coins.
