"Name?"
On the dusty steel door, a ferocious face looked down at the intruders and asked solemnly.
Around the door, countless vicious traps and curses were already on the verge of being triggered. On the long corridor behind them, the eyes of the countless strange stone sculptures lit up in unison.
Huai Shi was stunned.
"What's going on?" He turned around and asked the snake-faced priest, "I'm already in hell, why are you still using the same trick? Can't you come up with something new? "
"This is the defense set up by the bastard Zim."
The snake-faced priest replied devoutly, "In addition to the puppet army outside and the realm, the face on the door is the embodiment of the Evil Armor. In addition, there are many traps inside the treasury that I don't understand. Once triggered, it may directly trigger the alarm of the entire city, leading to..."
"Okay, I got it."
Huai Shi's scalp began to tingle. He looked up at the huge metal door in front of him, and the strange face, and was at a loss for what to do...
Since he wanted to do something, how could he not be mentally prepared at all?
Moreover, what was that saying again?
The strongest fortress was always breached from the inside...
No matter how well Zim defended against the thieves outside the treasury, if the things in the treasury grew legs and ran out, there was nothing he could do, right?
He brought the snake-faced priest out of the corridor again.
This distance was enough for Huai Shi to operate.
There was no time to lose.
In order to complete the plan quickly and protect his partner's precarious chastity, Huai Shi felt that he was really worried sick.
But listening to him sing so happily, it didn't seem like he was against it? Or was it that the long years of being single had distorted his sense of beauty? Even if he said he didn't want it, in fact, his heart was beating wildly, and he liked it?
Thinking about it this way, it seemed... it was not impossible.
Huai Shi's mind was in a mess. Then, he put his hands together, and after praying that he was fine, he closed his eyes.
After the heavy blockades, endless traps and malice, in the dark secret room, the cabinet moved.
It was as if some living creature had awakened.
It let out a soft sound, and in an instant, countless vicious rays of light fell from the inside, detecting all unexpected changes, and the alarm was ready to go off.
Huai Shi's movements were slightly sluggish. He didn't expect that the internal defense wasn't left behind either.
Then, he laughed mockingly.
He clenched his fists.
Thus, in the darkness of the cabinet, the treasure that Russell had offered started to vibrate again.
The crown that contained the True Essence of the Abyss and the dark aura faintly glowed.
No matter who saw it, they would exclaim that it was a treasure. Unfortunately, this thing was just something that Huai Shi had casually molded out of two pieces of scrap metal.
What truly gave off a mysterious aura was the bullet embedded in the base of the crown jewel!
Disaster extracted from Lu Baiyan's frozen soul.
At this moment, the ink-like bullet was awakened by Great Si Ming's call. There were no thunderous rumbles or terrifying vibrations, but only a tiny sound that sounded like an illusion.
Then, cracks that were so thin that they couldn't be seen appeared.
The moment the outer shell was broken, the darkness that surged like an ocean seeped out bit by bit. Unlike Huai Shi's Shadow Burial and Yang Sheng's two completely different Origin Substance transformations, the other Great Si Ming did not have Reflection Crystals or blessings from true gods when they advanced.
They didn't have an exaggerated qualitative change like Divinity Qualitative Change – Light. On the contrary, they advanced on the basis of Origin Substance Qualitative Change – Shadow and formed pure darkness!
Heaven's Inquisition Road was best at changing Hell's environment and reconstructing everything, relying on the control and manipulation of Hell's sediment and the True Essence of the Abyss.
Therefore, this Darkness Origin Substance that had been extracted over a long period of time was, to a certain extent, equivalent to the True Essence of Hell that had yet to solidify.
At this moment, the disaster forged from Lu Baiyan's frozen soul was completely awakened by Huai Shi.
In an instant, formless darkness gushed out of the broken crown like a tide, penetrating all obstacles and radiating in all directions.
Wherever it passed, all curses, realms, and defensive measures were silently engulfed, devoured, and even … dissolved by the power of Shadow Burial!
Assimilation!
This incredibly terrifying corrosive force was like a strong acid extracted by a chemist falling on a substance. It targeted all disasters and curses and began to rapidly infiltrate and assimilate them.
A single drop of ink was enough to dye the vast ocean with its own color.
Everything turned pitch-black!
Contact, infiltration, corrosion, and assimilation — everything was completed in the blink of an eye.
Before the darkness that surged like a tidal wave, all traps and safeguards crumbled and melted into the darkness, becoming a part of it.
In the end, the surging darkness rapidly shrunk into a blurry door, a road sign.
Outside the corridor, the minotaur's body was rapidly collapsing and shrinking, thinning and evaporating until all that was left was an imperceptible shadow.
Then, Huai Shi took a step forward.
Shadow Burial Shuttle!
Without triggering any alarms or traps, Huai Shi's vision blurred, and he found himself deep inside the treasury. The shelves were like a forest, extending in all directions.
Outside the door, the snake-faced Shaman could see.
The face on the metal door was still sleeping, not reacting at all.
Within the treasury, Huai Shi stretched out his hand, and the Shadow Origin Substance that had formed the door rapidly shrank. After being molded by Yang Sheng, it once again returned to the shape of a bullet.
Thanks to Shadow Burial and Yang Sheng's convenient innate talents, these cursed bullets could be reused at any time. In fact, the more disasters they assimilated, the more power they would become.
While shooting, Su Chen could also feel the same sense of accomplishment as if he were holding a plate of walnuts.
And now, it was time to plunder even more delightfully......
Huai Shi raised his head and looked around, his eyes illuminated by all kinds of shining treasures.
"They're all good stuff."
Over the past thousands of years, all of the accumulated trade in White Thunder Plains, all of the treasures that Zim couldn't digest, had been piled up here by the Lava Demon Dragon's innate nature.
The crystallization of decay that would take thousands of years to brew in some desolate Infernal Realm had been piled up here on two shelves.
To some negative Stigmata, this was an invaluable resource that couldn't be bought with money. The only downside was that this kind of thing, if left in one place for too long, would affect the environment and increase its depth.
Zim couldn't handle such a dangerous thing, so he had to let Su Chen handle it himself.
Damn!
Using an entire army of Infernal Realm as a sacrifice, after going through a secret ritual and merging bones, blood, and souls into Cursed Gray Iron, an excellent material for forging high-tier relics and alchemy items, was piled up here like a mountain.
If left alone for too long, these things could give birth to dangerous monsters like Bloodthirsty Demon Spirits...... Oh, there were already some, and there were more than ten of them, all sealed in iron. Too dangerous, take it, take it! Raymond was about to advance, so he could use it to torture him.
A strange bone sword filled with the aura of death, as if it was calling his name. It was obviously not a good thing, too dangerous, take it, take it!
Wait, there was a crystallization of blood hatred that was a head taller than him and weighed two to three tons? Especially with such sharp edges, what if it cut his good friend Zim? Too dangerous, take it!
There was a whole box of Flame Jade that could transform a large group of Flame Elementals, this was too … Wait, this didn't seem dangerous, but who knows, what if it was spoiled in the future? Take it!
Origin crystal? So ordinary, although there was a lot of them, at least a few hundred thousand, how could they be worthy of being a treasure trove? Take it!
Sixteen skeletons as large as mountains?
They looked like they were carved out of iron and obsidian, emitting a ferocious aura. Who knew what kind of terrifying disaster was hidden inside? They were all the remains of the crowned Lava Demon Dragon Clan.
Such a thing from the Underworld, what if it scared the children? Take it! Maybe it would be useful when the Twilight Road's Sublimator advanced …
Just as he was plundering, Huai Shi paused and suddenly realized that something was wrong. Why was it that most of the treasures he had plundered were related to Celestial genealogy and could be used?
Then, he reacted sluggishly. Like all the good stuff in Hell, even the Heavenly Kingdom's lineage can be used? Oh, it's not that there's a problem with the treasure trove, it's that Celestial genealogy is too evil.
Then it's fine …
Behind Huai Shi, the door to the Ultimate was wide open. As he moved forward, shelves after shelves were swallowed and thrown into the bottomless darkness.
The Ultimate could even seal the remnants of destruction elements, so it was not a big problem to use it to decorate small things!
The only pity was that although there were many good things in the treasure trove, none of them could be compared to his own Origin Form Equipment and Beelzebub.
The quality was a bit too trashy.
From this, it could be seen that this Thunder White Plains was not very good.
I wonder if the treasure troves of other rulers are better? I must take a look next time when I have the chance.
Finally, there was an ancient sheepskin scroll sealed in the innermost part of the treasury. It was protected by dozens of seals and security measures. When Huai Shi opened the box, she found that it was filled with promissory notes from various hells … It was completely useless!
'Trash, tear it apart!'
In the end, even the illuminating pearls on the ceiling, the Stone of Hades on the ground, and the embossments and inlaid gems on the walls were all taken down by Huai Shi with the Sword of Virtue and stuffed into his trouser pocket.
When Huai Shi turned around and looked at the spotless and clean treasure trove, he could not help but smile proudly as a cleaner.
He looked at the ground that was so shiny that it looked like it had been licked by dogs, the uneven walls that looked like they had been gnawed by dogs, and then at the wonderful space that allowed hundreds of dogs to run around freely.
All of this was in exchange for his tireless and fearless efforts!
Zim would definitely be very touched after receiving it, right?
Unfortunately, Huai Shi did not intend to stay here and accept the praise. The moment he took out the cursed bullet and threw it out, another cursed bullet was awakened on the street outside the palace.
A Door of Shadow Burial that led to the outside world opened again.
"Let's go, let's go."
Huai Shi looked back at the empty treasure trove behind him one last time and stepped toward the portal. Then, his movements suddenly froze in place.
Without any warning, an ancient mirror appeared in the void, reflecting his figure and freezing him for a moment.
Huai Shi instinctively wanted to struggle, but it was already too late!
The Door of Shadow Burial in front of him silently collapsed and shattered, replaced by a cold and ferocious face.
Hades!
Then, as the alchemist raised his hand, dozens of strange sharp blades appeared from the void and tore through Huai Shi's body, nailing him to the ground.
Blazing light emerged from the sharp blades and intertwined with each other to form a blade-like cage, shackling Huai Shi within.
God's Mark – Tartaros!
The power that the Greek gods once used to imprison the Titans in the Abyss reappeared here, along with Hades's killing intent.
When he was at his most relaxed and most defenseless …
In an instant, he was severely injured!
"You think I'm going to leave just like that?"
After lying in wait for a long time, the jester who suddenly erupted reached out and pulled Huai Shi's hair, lifting his face and questioning him expressionlessly.
"You think I can't do anything to you just because Zim is holding me back?"
In the tearing pain, Huai Shi stared blankly at the face for a long time, unable to hide his confusion.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
A ferocious look appeared in Hades's eyes as he clenched his fists. In an instant, the intertwined blades glowed with blazing heat, destroying Huai Shi's body from the inside out, causing him to scream involuntarily. "I'm kidding, I'm kidding, don't get agitated, let's talk nicely!"
"You're brewing a trick, Huai Shi, I know you."
Hades's palm did not relax at all, his eyes cold. "This pain is not even a sneeze to you."
"You can say that, you can say that!"
Huai Shi screamed and begged, "Please, please, friend, to be honest, I don't remember having such a big grudge between us … Why are you so obsessed with it?"
All I did was spoil your scheme, kill your good friend, destroy your Mystic Instrument of Creation, and steal your car, didn't I?
How big of a deal is that?
"There's a saying that goes, 'Through all the tribulations, as long as your brother is there, you can forget about enmity with a smile. You have to look forward in everything. How about this, we'll split the things here equally, and you can spare my dog life, how about that?"
Huai Shi sincerely begged, "Seventy-thirty is not impossible, eighty-twenty! Eighty-twenty should be fine, right? You can't want ninety-ten, right? You have to leave me some … "
"Enough!"
Hades roared angrily, interrupting him. He could no longer hide his anger and killing intent. "This is your plan, Huai Shi? Sneak into Ironflame City and steal all his treasures? Then slip away quietly? Do you think you can escape my blockade with such a trick? Dream on! "
"You can't escape, Huai Shi!"
He strengthened the miracle mark again and said coldly, "I swear, you will pay for what you've done!"
But at that moment, in the cage, Huai Shi's face showed a strange smile.
"Let's not talk about the price for now, Hades."
He probed curiously.
"But what if I don't want to escape?"
At that moment, Hades's expression froze.
Outside the treasury, the snake-faced priest followed Huai Shi's order and used all his strength to scream, shout, and roar.
"Guards, there's a thief!!!!"
Then, an ear-piercing alarm burst out. In an instant, it resounded in every corner of Ironflame City, waking up every pair of sleeping eyes from the darkness and looking at the deepest part of the palace.
In the rapid rumbling and violent shaking, the dust on the vault of the treasury rustled down. It was as if a furious behemoth had smashed through the layers of obstacles and descended from the sky.
"Originally, I thought you could wait until I left the city before making a move. I didn't expect you to be so impatient … But, it's not wrong."
Huai Shi looked at the trembling vault with a smile. "Look, Hades, the master is coming to catch the thief."
"Are you ready to take the blame?"
