Garen's current plan is to wait until he gets the stone eye and use the excuse that the appraisal will take a certain amount of time, so he can at least keep it in his hands for a while, which is also a way to absorb the potential.
In order to remove the suspicion, he took the initiative to ask Eighth to go with him to hunt down the Ninth Golden Ring, and it was also because the other party deliberately planted him in the last attack.
In any case, the Ninth Golden Ring must be found to elute the suspicion. But he also knew that even if the suspicion was cleared, Eighth would not necessarily let him go. Perhaps his identification was a protection, but not safe enough.
"It's better for both of us to be hurt and die together!" Gallon ran down quickly, a glint of sternness flashed in his eyes.
Behind him, the eighth golden ring followed closely behind him, holding a torch with a small flame in his hand, and carefully covered it with his cloak to prevent the fire from going out. The distance between the two of them was almost only more than one meter, and with such a little light, they could barely see the front and back clearly.
Not long after, a half-open white stone door suddenly appeared on the wall of the stairs in front. Looking in through the gap, it was dark inside. A gust of cool wind blows out from inside.
Garen stopped quickly, stood at the door and took a breath.
"It's the living wind! They should have left from here!"
The Eighth Golden Ring now has a clear idea, and obviously knows that he has been deceived. At this time, Galondo doesn't need to say anything, and he is the first to open the big stone gate and walk in.
Garen's eyes flickered, and he followed in.
Inside the stone gate is an empty and narrow stone room, the ground is covered with a thick layer of dust, and on the dust, one can clearly see a row of dense footprints walking forward, until they disappear at the right wall.
Eighth Jinhuan walked over and groped the wall, but couldn't find the mechanism at all.
"Damn it!" He slammed his fist against the wall with a bang.
"There's still wind! There must be an exit!" Garen said calmly, "See where the air vent is?"
Eighth's eyes lit up, he just didn't expect it because of his impatience. At this time, I was reminded, and immediately began to search for the air outlet.
Garen stood aside without moving, just quietly watching him check around.
"What is the function of that stone? Does your Golden Ring know?"
"Hey, aren't you afraid that if you know more, you will die faster?" Eighth groped and smiled strangely. Suddenly he seemed to have touched a mechanism and pressed lightly against the wall.
With a click, a small door flipped out on the wall.
The moment the small door was flipped out, a short sword stabbed at the eighth golden ring soundlessly.
clang!
The short sword and the barrel of the eighth pistol collided violently.
Eighth took a big step back, raised his gun and fired.
Bang bang bang!
Four shots in a row, the darkness in the small door remained silent.
"Run away, chase!" Eighth roared, but stood still. He just looked at Garen who was standing to the side, meaning to let him go in first.
"Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to lose something!" Garen sneered. His strength is not as good as the two, and he can only play 80% due to injury, so it is even more impossible to beat him. Now rushing in hastily, it is obvious that such a dark place cannot adapt at all.
Although the outside is darker, but there is no light inside the small door, at least Eighth Golden Ring still has a torch with sparks in his hand.
For a while, the two stood in a stalemate in the stone room. Eighth knew that Garen couldn't be urged no matter what, but he didn't dare to rush in by himself.
"If you delay any longer, no one will run away!" Garen said coldly.
Eighth Jinhuan gave him a hard look, gritted his teeth, took out one of the two pistols, and threw it viciously into the small door.
The pistol spun and slid into the darkness.
boom!
With a gunshot, a small ball of red fire exploded in the darkness, and the pistol exploded directly. At the same time, there was a muffled snort, followed by some staggering footsteps.
The eighth Jinhuan sneered, rushed in without saying a word, covered his body with a cloak, rushed through the flames and disappeared.
Garen didn't follow. He clearly saw that the eighth golden ring hit the butt of the previous pistol with a single shot. The butt was actually filled with explosives, and it was blown up with a single shot, forming a small explosive packet.
Exploding in such a narrow space, although the explosive power is very weak, but the sound alone would deafen the ears of ordinary people, and the Ninth Golden Ring must have been shocked.
That's why the Eighth Golden Ring didn't have time to talk to Gallon at all, and rushed in to chase him down. It is necessary to kill the ninth man before he comes back.
Standing where he was, Garen knew that he had nothing to do. He originally meant that he didn't want to get involved, but now the two in front started fighting on their own. Now is the time to leave.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly felt a familiar air flow slowly penetrate into his skin from the air.
"This is potential?!" He looked around in astonishment, but there was no fire, and the stone room was completely dark, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Garen walked slowly against the wall, and soon walked into the place where the potential was the strongest.
He slowly squatted down in the corner, where a small piece of black cloth was nailed to the ground, covering something on the ground.
Because it was too dark and it was in a corner, Eighth and Garen didn't see it just now, and the potential emission was too weak, Garen didn't notice it just now. Now that he was quiet, he finally realized that besides the black jade plate, there was also such a potential that was slowly getting into his body.
"Could it be?!" Gallon's heart skipped a beat, and he gently lifted the black cloth. A white stone suddenly appeared below, like a fish-shaped human eye, lying quietly on the dark ground. Garen picked it up and touched it. Although he couldn't see clearly, he immediately knew that this was the center of the source of potential. Its shape should be that white eye stone.
"If it weren't for my potential to help with the search, no one else would be able to find the things placed here!" Garen hurriedly picked up the white eyes and put them in his arms.
Standing up, he turned around and walked out from the entrance.
There was a faint smell of oily smoke from the torches in the air, and it was still very strong.
"It should be the detectives who just passed by."
Standing at the entrance of the stone gate, Garen looked back, and a sneer suddenly appeared on his face.
"One intentionally framed me, and the other just wanted to kill me. Both are not good things. Unfortunately, if I were stronger, I could kill them in turn! But I can't let them have such a good time."
He touched the white eye stone in his jacket pocket, his eyes thoughtful. At the same time, he ran up quickly.
a few minutes later
A black shadow suddenly appeared from the small door in the stone room. Without using any lighting method, the black shadow rushed directly to the corner of the wall, lifted the black cloth on the ground and touched it with his hand.
Hei Ying didn't touch anything, he froze for a moment, and hurriedly felt around again, but it was still empty.
"That Kelly!!" He gritted his teeth.
There was a faint sound of footsteps behind him, and the black shadow immediately got up and rushed out of the door.
As soon as he rushed out of the door, he heard a gust of wind from the right, and a figure rushed from the side.
Boom! !
The two separated abruptly, and the black shadow was hit hard by the door, causing the entire wall to vibrate slightly.
"Damn it!!" He continued to roll and dodge. The stone door frame behind him was suddenly hit by the second punch with a muffled bang, and a large amount of gravel fell from the wall amidst the crackling sound.
"Ninth Golden Ring, you asked for it!" Garen's voice came from the darkness. "How dare you plant it on me! Do you really think I dare not touch you?"
Ninth Jinhuan half-kneeled against the handrail of the stairs and supported his body. His face was pale, and red lines were oozing from his ears, mouth and nostrils, all thin bloodshot.
He didn't take the hard qigong route in the first place, he was injured by the eighth golden ring first, and now he was hit by this sneak attack. For a while, I felt my stomach was overwhelmed, and my head was a little dizzy.
"Where's the stuff?" He asked in a distressed voice.
"Of course it's with me." Garen sneered, "I'll give it to the people in Golden Ring, just to ease the bad relationship with Golden Ring. It can also be handed over to the eighth Golden Ring in a while."
"Idiot." Ninth suddenly forced a laugh, stood up, and was about to continue talking, when he opened his mouth and vomited a big mouthful of blood.
A thick bloody smell immediately filled the air.
At this moment, another black shadow rushed out of the stone room and landed on the door. It is the eighth golden ring.
He held a small torch with sparks in his hand, which could barely illuminate a small area around him. Under the red light of Mars, the faces of the three of them were faintly red.
"Is it really in your place?" Eighth Golden Ring looked at Garen who was on the side. "Give it to me!" He stretched out his hand to this side.
"I can give you something, but I haven't identified it yet. I think only I can identify the authenticity of this item, and it will take a long time. You should know."
Garen didn't hesitate either. He knew that he couldn't keep this thing. Although he was very unhappy with the other party's tone, he still raised his hand and threw the white stone over his eyes. The latter received it and checked it, then nodded in satisfaction.
"It's okay, I misunderstood you just now. This thing is really meaningless to you, and you have no reason to snatch it. The appraisal will probably trouble you in the future." Eighth Jinhuan got the thing, and his tone suddenly softened. "Maybe there are other things that need to trouble you in the future. The previous things were all a misunderstanding."
"I just like to appraise strange and weird things. In fact, I also hope that the good things you receive from Golden Ring can be appraised by me." Garen directly stated his plan.
Eighth Jinhuan rolled his eyes.
"The organization has always attached great importance to and protected talented people! In the past, the people below were ignorant and caused you a lot of trouble. It is indeed our fault. But you also know that after all, you are on the side of Mercury in the tower. Many people in the organization are dissatisfied with this. And if you, Kelly, can join our Golden Ring, everything will be all right." He just tested Garen's strength, and it was indeed extraordinary. Jinhuan had to add new members, and suddenly had an idea.
After a conversation between the two, they temporarily put aside the seriously injured Ninth Golden Ring. Nineth was also happy to rest for a while, as his body had long been unable to hold on.
"What good does it do me to join the Golden Ring?" Garen asked in a low voice.
"Although we are not a secret military organization, we are not a pure force organization." The eighth Golden Ring smiled triumphantly, "The true nature of our Golden Ring is actually known to the detectives in the Tower, but they just didn't tell you." He said After a pause, "Kelly, do you think we have power, why do we go to great lengths to collect all kinds of jewelry and antiques?"
Garen narrowed his eyes.
"Since it is collected, there must be someone who needs it."
"Then what kind of person would like this kind of stolen antiques that are not easy to sell? These things are just old things, and at most they have some historical stories." Eighth Golden Ring continued to remind .
Gallon was shocked.
"It's noble!" he blurted out.
"That's right!" Eighth Jinhuan laughed. "Golden Ring, doesn't represent ordinary black forces. Our backstage is full of high-ranking big shots! Strength is only our weakest part, and what is really strong is power! Joining us will only benefit you and not harm you. "
Garen felt relieved, knowing that there was no problem. Those words just now were meant for Eighth Golden Ring. He has family relatives and teachers, and he is not alone. Whether it is the Manleyton Company or the teacher Fei Baiyun's status and power behind him, although Jinhuan is not afraid, but he will not provoke him for no reason. As long as there is no conflict of interest, everything is easy to say .
"It's no wonder the detectives have been ignoring you all the time. It turns out that the Golden Ring has such a strong influence!" he murmured.
"We just need an expert appraiser who can appraise ancient and rare things. This is your opportunity!" The eighth Jinhuan became more and more satisfied with his own thoughts. Regardless of his strength, background, and his own talents, Garen was an expert. organization needs. As long as he can be pulled in, the previous little conflict can be easily resolved. Isn't it just a few people who died? It's not the top 20 Golden Rings, there can be as many rankings in the back as you want! Professional and rare talents are the most important resource these days.
