Søren did not answer the question of the Oriental Dancer.
He looked up at the sky, and his eyes seemed to pass through the sky and see some fragments of the future. The stars in the night sky were already very dim. As they entered the latter part of April, some of the stars became very inconspicuous. No matter how one looked at it, the moon was a bit gray, as if it was covered with a layer of haze. There were still eight months before the end of this year. These should be the most stable eight months for Søren. When the spring of next year came, he was afraid that he would not be so relaxed and stable.
The Oriental Dancer looked up at the sky, and she seemed to be a little absent-minded. She murmured, "Have you heard of the legend of the East?"
"What legend?" Søren stirred the fire and said in a deep voice.
The Oriental Dancer stood up and looked at the moon. Then, he said in a low voice, "When all the stars in the sky become dim, a demon star will streak across the sky! At that time, there will be a huge disaster. It is said that there are rumors in many places, and the monks seem to be secretly preparing to deal with something. There is news in the Eastern Kingdom that many ascetic monks have come out, including the ascetic monks of the Prajna Sect. The actions of the monks make many people feel uneasy. "
"After completing this task, I will return to the Eastern Kingdom."
"Her Excellency Empress asked us to withdraw from the Desert of Death before the second half of the year, although I don't know what will happen."
The Eastern Empress.
This woman's professional level was above level 30. She was a legend among legends. Søren was not surprised that she could detect the signs of the Avatar Crisis in advance.
The Desert of Death was the first to bear the brunt of the Avatar Crisis!
There were too many evil things sealed here, but there was no monastery to suppress them. It was easy to become a chaotic place of killing.
"It's good to leave here."
Søren turned and glanced at the woman behind him. The Oriental Dancer had a charm that was different from other women. This exotic style made it easy for them to gain the favor of others.
But it did not include Søren, because the woman in front of him was very likely to want to get closer to him.
If one had to use a kind of person to describe the Oriental Dancer, they were like the Yin Gui Faction of the Devil Sect. The Oriental Empress was proficient in charming techniques, and the lethality of her dance was definitely not much weaker than the 'Demonic Dance'. Moreover, they were inextricably linked to the brothels of the Eastern Kingdom. On the surface, many oriental dancers were the top hostesses of brothels, but secretly, they were ruthless assassins.
Søren stood up and looked at the woman in front of him. "Time's up," he said in a deep voice.
"It's time for someone else to keep watch."
"You'd better rest early today. We can enter the underground tomorrow."
The second night watchman was the Oriental Ronin. He sat by the fire with his sword in his arms. He glanced at the Oriental Dancer, but his face showed a lack of interest.
After a while, he pierced a scorpion with his sword and roasted it over the fire. Surprisingly, he drank some wine.
The night passed quickly.
The next day, the laborers were urged to work again. Their progress was much faster in the morning. They dug up the broken walls of some buildings. However, something unexpected happened once again. After digging a hole in the wall, a large number of Sacred Beetles suddenly rushed out. The black mass of Sacred Beetles crazily rushed out and submerged the three workers who were closest to them. Not to mention these ordinary people, even the other professions present, especially the Oriental Dancer, could not help but turn pale after seeing the dense Sacred Beetles.
Desert Sacred Beetles.
They were like marching ants in the outer islands, a creature that could drown even high-grade professions.
"Fire!"
Søren had been prepared for this for a long time. With his order, someone poured kerosene on the side of the passage, and then the fire spread to the passage. It burned for more than ten minutes before the Sacred Beetles were driven to other places. There were a lot of burned Sacred Beetles at the entrance of the passage. There were probably thousands of them. Many ancient ruins in the desert had this kind of creature. If one did not prepare in advance, seeing them would make one's scalp tingle.
Two dead and one injured!
The casualties were still within Søren's expectations, although they had just dug to the edge of the underground ruins.
"Get ready to go in."
Søren looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice, "Hold the torch! Everyone else, get ready. There should be an ancient ruin square below here. There are some unclean things inside. "
"We have to clean them up first before we can continue to dig the passage."
Ordinary people would die if they went down.
Søren had to clean up some monsters inside before they could go in and continue to dig.
"I've been waiting impatiently for a long time."
The Dwarven Juggernaut knocked on his shield, jumped up from the sand dune, and said excitedly, "Is there treasure below? Didn't you say that you know the situation inside very well? There should be some good things near the square, right? "
Treasure.
Except for Søren and the Oriental Dancer, the rest of the people present came for wealth.
Søren glanced at him and nodded, "There should be some. According to the distribution of buildings during the Arcane Empire, we should be able to find a lot of Arcane Gold Coins nearby."
"The value of this gold coin is very high, and the exchange ratio with Kindler is about 1: 10."
Arcane Gold.
Simply put, it was gold refined by alchemy. The stability of gold was very strong, and the gold coin manufacturing technology of the Arcane Empire was at least two eras ahead of the current era.
"Is it so valuable?"
The Dwarven Juggernaut was a little excited, "Doesn't that mean that if we find a hundred of them, we can exchange them for a thousand Kindler?"
Hearing his words, the expressions of the Oriental Ronin and the Desert Warrior changed slightly. It was normal to find thousands of ancient gold coins in an underground ruin exploration, which meant that there were tens of thousands of Kindler's income, not counting other treasures.
"Don't be happy too early."
Søren frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "There may be undamaged Golem guards below. Our task is still to clean up the square first, and then explore other areas."
The Dwarven Juggernaut patted his chest and said seriously, "I know. It's not the first time I've come out to explore ruins. Don't worry, I won't mess around. "
Rumble!
There was a slight sound of collapse in the passage, as if a wall had been pushed down.
Søren glanced down and immediately said, "Prepare the rope. We've dug an entrance that looks more than thirty meters deep."
Torches, hook locks, pulleys.
Søren walked in the front as a Rogue. Although he could easily go down with the help of Levitation, he still slowly slid to the bottom with a rope.
At present, no one knew that he was a part-time Wizard, so it was better to keep it a secret for the time being.
"Safe!"
Søren's night vision was very strong. He glanced around, immediately lit the torch, and said in a deep voice, "You can come down."
The second one to come down was the Dwarven Juggernaut.
He was the orthodox meat shield. His heavy armor was more than sixty pounds, and only the Dwarven Juggernaut could afford to wear it. (Good strength, the highest Constitution among the conventional races. Dwarves who don't advance can reach 19 points if they have good talent. The Dwarven Juggernaut is a top meat shield in all aspects except for his height disability, and these guys are born with good taunting ability.)
Bang!
Because of his weight, the sound of his landing was not small.
The sound echoed in the dead underground, and soon there seemed to be some slight movements coming from all sides.
Never expect the Juggernaut to move quietly. Søren listened for a while, and his face gradually became dignified. He said in a deep voice, "Come down quickly! Get ready to fight! "
The Desert Warrior and the Oriental Ronin were both agile melee professions. They soon landed and stood firm, while the Oriental Dancer landed quietly.
Woo woo woo!
Strange sounds came from all directions, making one's hair stand on end.
"Damn it!"
The Dwarven Juggernaut listened for a while and muttered, "It's really the Undead! … "(What the hell!)
A faint blue flame appeared.
The breath of the Undead appeared with the cold wind. There should be little ventilation in the closed underground ruins, so they knew at once that they had encountered the Undead.
"Ghost! Ghost fire! There seems to be a Skeleton Undead nearby! … "
Søren frowned and looked around, and said in a deep voice, "Get the holy water ready, you can smear it on your weapons! Everyone, don't be too scattered, no one knows what monsters are here! "
Woo woo woo!
Translucent figures appeared, and these Undead, who were buried together with the city, rushed towards them.
Clang.
Søren slashed his sword in an instant. The Curved Sword Icingdeath had energy damage, which could directly deal with these Undead creatures.
"I hate the Undead!"
The clumsy Dwarven Juggernaut had no way to deal with the Ghosts. He could only turn his eyes and find an awakened Skeleton Undead (Challenge Rating 6).
All the people present were high-grade professions.
They were also the leaders of a town organization, so it was naturally easy to deal with these Undead.
The battle lasted only a few minutes.
All the Undead were dealt with. Søren put away his Curved Sword and began to light the torch. This was the first stop to explore the underground ruins. Because it sunk into the depths of the desert, many places were buried. The exploration must be done step by step from here. Although the light became abundant, everything in front of them was also displayed in front of them.
This was a square with a large diameter, and in front of it was a broken obelisk.
Half of the square was buried, and the other half was the location where they dug. If Søren hadn't found the location, it would have been useless for them to dig here, unless they dug out all the soil and sand. There was a passage near the square, which was the street of the city. It was very open, but many had been buried, and the collapse of the houses was quite serious. Only a few of the buildings in front of them were intact. These well-preserved places were not simple, and there were traces of arcane magic.
"This should be the location."
Before Søren acted, he was still prepared to give them some benefits. After all, they were all high-grade professions, and it was difficult for them to really work hard if they didn't see the benefits.
He still had a deep impression in his memory that there was a place nearby with a lot of loot.
"Follow me." Søren looked up. It had been buried for thousands of years, and it was much more solid, but he did not rule out the possibility of abnormal collapse. He did not want to be buried under the sand.
The group of people moved forward very carefully.
As they gradually approached a relatively intact building, some plants unexpectedly appeared in front of them.
Mossy plants.
There were mottled traces on the wall, and there were broken artificial crystals. This was the craftsmanship of the Arcane Empire. They used artificial crystals to transmit magic energy.
"Intruder found!"
"Intruder found!"
"Reserve energy activated! … Magic-Powered device activated! … Level I defense system activated! … "
A cold mechanical voice sounded.
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the wall in front of him, followed by heavy footsteps. A three-meter-tall Puppet Golem made entirely of steel stepped out.
Søren stepped back vigilantly, letting the dwarf warrior stand in front, and said in a deep voice, "It's a Puppet Golem from the Arcane Empire! … "
"Be careful!"
"They may have the means of energy attack."
As long as it was an underground ruin related to the Arcane Empire, it was easy to encounter these Steel Golems, because they completely replaced the city guards during the Arcane Empire.
"Target found!"
"Magic-Powered Guard Type I received attack command! … "
Click.
The arm of the Steel Golem in front of them suddenly turned, and then a black cannon barrel stretched out. This was a rare Golem craftsmanship in the current era. Søren just glanced at it and his face changed greatly, "Spread out quickly!"
Boom!
Boom boom boom!
Three energy cannons hit where they were, directly blowing up pits in the ground. The power was not much different from that of mortars.
"Bah bah bah!"
The Dwarf Juggernaut spat out the soil in his mouth, roared, rushed over with his shield in front of him, and shouted, "Tadandin hates Puppet Golems! Go to hell! Steel monster! "
The Mountain Dwarves also had brilliant alchemy, which was finally destroyed in the hands of the Dwarf Defender (Construct Golem) they created.
Clang!
With a harsh sound of metal collision, the Dwarf Warrior's axe hit the leg of the Steel Golem, and sparks came out directly.
"Attack the joint position!"
Søren's figure also moved and went around from the side. The Oriental Ronin also reacted quickly. He slid sideways and swung his sword at the leg joint of the Golem.
"Activate the Energy Shield!"
"Elemental Fission Shield activated! … Insufficient energy! … Elemental Fission Shield failed to activate! … "
"Magic-Powered Guard Type I, switch to the melee form!"
Under the attack of Søren and others, the joint part of the Steel Golem began to operate, like a Transformer, and the black muzzle entered its body and transformed into a pale golden square shield and a giant sword forged with magical steel craftsmanship. At the same time, the key part of its leg that was hit began to gradually recover, and the metal seemed to come alive and gradually returned to its original appearance.
"Memory metal?!"
Søren's face changed in an instant, and then his expression became a little surprised. He murmured, "Is it a high-level Construct Golem?"
