Without seeing it with their own eyes, no one could imagine that Ruhr had saved so much money.
Although it was still far away and they couldn't see how much money there was, they could tell that it was a big pile of money just by the light of the gems.
It was a pile of shiny gold coins.
"I never thought that … gold coins could be described as' pile '." Palin murmured with his eyes wide open.
"This guy must have swallowed most of the wealth that he had robbed," Gerald said.
Ryan was the calmest one among the three. Perhaps it was out of the professional habit of a thief, he immediately looked away from the pile of gold coins and looked at the ground nearby.
Then he took out a magic wand for lighting.
This simple magic product could provide a stable cold light source for a long time. It would neither consume air nor cause suffocation, nor was it afraid of flooding. Except that it was a little expensive, it was almost the perfect lighting tool for adventurers.
Under the slightly pale cold light source, the old thief carefully checked the ground and soon found several traps.
Yes, several traps, and it was estimated that there would be more ahead.
"Ruhr the Bloody Hand is really cruel! He has locked the entrance of the treasure with a magic circle, but he still set traps in the treasure! "Gerald said angrily," It's so evil! It's too evil! "
"Many treasure collectors have this problem. It's not surprising." Ryan said lightly, "When I was adventuring, I found a hundred traps in a treasure house of a necromancer."
He said it casually, but Gerrard and Palin's faces turned green.
There were a hundred traps in a treasure house?! With so many traps activated, not to mention their lives, even their corpses could not be left!
"What happened then?" Palin asked.
"Nothing much. Two teammates died, and the traps were all dismantled." Ryan was still playing it down. "I'll retire after I distribute the money."
The topic was temporarily cold, but Ryan did not rush to the front to remove the traps. Instead, he fixed the magic wand on the wall beside him with glue, and then turned back to look at the place where they were transmitted from.
"What are you looking for?" Gerald asked.
"The traps to leave here." Ryan didn't even raise his head. "This place should be teleported in and out by magic. Let's find the exit mechanism first and make it ready to be activated at any time. In case of any accidents, we still have time to escape."
The rich experience of the Jianghu made the two of them feel deep respect, but this made them a little embarrassed. The front was a trap, and the back was a dead end. They could only stay in this small place, unable to advance or retreat.
Palin was fine. He took out a book and began to read it in the steady, soft light of the wand. Gerrard, on the other hand, felt uncomfortable. His body was huge, and it was already a little cramped to stand here. He could not walk around, so he was really a little embarrassed.
He wanted to pick up his axe and smash some of the rocks around him, but he was afraid that the rocks would collapse and bury everyone alive. In the end, he had no choice but to sit down, hugging his knees, and soon began to yawn.
As time went by, Ryan was still working in an orderly manner. Palin finished reading a book, put it back into his backpack, and took out another book. This time, it was a magic book. As he read it carefully, he used his finger to draw magic lines in the air, doing some basic research.
As for Gerrard, he had already fallen asleep because he was too bored.
After a long time, a green light suddenly flashed. Ryan screamed, and his body was covered by the green light. He disappeared instantly without a trace. Then on the ground, the Transmission Magic Matrix, which he had been working on for a long time, emitted a strong light, and exploded into pieces with a bang. More red poisonous gas rose up, and in the blink of an eye, it spread out and enveloped Gerrard and Palin.
Gerrard was sleeping soundly, and when he inhaled a big mouthful of poisonous gas, he suddenly coughed violently and woke up by choking. He opened his eyes and saw that in the cold light of the illuminating wand, Palin was curled up on the ground with a painful face, and his hands scratched his throat until it was bleeding, but it did not help his situation at all.
This young mage, a teenager who loved to read, was dead.
Gerrard was stunned for a moment, and turned to look for Ryan, but he did not find any trace of the old thief.
"What happened? Where is Ryan? This trap is … "
The poisonous gas filled his trachea and lungs, and he could not help coughing violently again. From his nose and mouth to his throat, and then to his trachea and alveoli, a feeling that was not severe but very uncomfortable interrupted his thoughts.
Being able to survive in the highly poisonous gas until now, without really being fatally injured, the strong body built by Sui Xiong once again proved its superiority. However, Gerrard did not think of this at the moment. His mind was full of doubts and anger, and he was at a loss, and he did not know what was going on.
"Your Majesty …" He tried to pray, but did not know what to pray.
When he prayed, Sui Xiong, who had been concentrating on his research, was awakened. The veins of his soul spread along the bone bracelet, and he saw the situation here clearly.
"What's going on? Didn't they go to hunt for treasure? Why is there only one of them left? One is dead, and the other one is so dead that there is not even a corpse left? "
While talking to himself, he activated his magic, and turned it into a breeze to disperse the poisonous gas.
However, this poisonous gas was very strange. It did not dissipate after being blown by the wind, but became thicker. The red fog filled the whole cave where the treasure was hidden, and it was almost impossible to see one's own fingers.
"Damn! Encountering smog after traveling through time, the Environmental Protection Agency of this world is completely useless! " Sui Xiong muttered, and carefully analyzed the composition of the poisonous gas. Then his magic suddenly shook, turned into a circle of soft green light, and slowly dispersed.
This time, the power of the green light and the magic of the poisonous gas canceled each other out. Wherever the green light went, the red poisonous gas disappeared.
Like magic, the green circle of light swept around the treasure cave, and the red poisonous gas disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
"Gerrard, what the hell is going on?"
"Your Majesty, I … I don't know …" Gerrard said anxiously, "I just slept, and when I woke up, it was like this."
"… You can sleep while hunting for treasure. You are really talented!" Sui Xiong sighed, "Then I have to ask someone else."
Someone else to ask? Gerrard was stunned.
A misty black gas was emitted from the bone bracelet, and slowly dispersed in the air. A gloomy, obscure, and uneasy atmosphere pervaded the air, making one's heart feel heavy.
After a while, countless tiny light spots rose from the dead Palin, and slowly gathered into a vague human figure.
"Your Majesty, is this Palin's soul?"
"No, it's just the memory left in the body," Sui Xiong said. "His soul has gone to the country of the dead, but the memory does not only exist in the soul, but also in the body. I am now activating the memory left in his body, and then re-energizing his body. In this way … "
"He is resurrected?" Gerrard asked excitedly.
Sui Xiong hesitated for a moment, and did not know how to answer.
If on the earth, a person's body regained vitality, and his mind recovered, of course, he was resurrected. Even in the face of the academic big shots who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, he dared to declare so with his head held high.
But in this world, life was not only a matter of the body, but also a more important factor of the soul. Palin's soul had gone to the underworld, and unless the soul was pulled back from the underworld and re-stuffed into this recovered body, it could not be said to be "resurrected".
The current Palin, strictly speaking, was actually a walking corpse without a soul.
When the vague human figure slowly condensed, Sui Xiong covered the corpse of the dead teenager with a green light again. The injuries inside and outside the corpse quickly disappeared, and he was completely healthy. Vigorous vitality burst out from the body, and the pale cheeks became rosy again.
An invisible force grabbed the human figure formed by the residual memory and stuffed it into the body.
The next moment, the teenager opened his eyes.
At first, his eyes were a little confused. After a while, his eyes gradually regained focus, and his thoughts gradually became clear.
"Am I not … dead?" he hesitated and said, "I remember … I have been killed by the Death Cloud Spell …"
"You are dead, but you are resurrected," Gerrard said with a smile. Gerrard said with a smile, "We mortals shouldn't think about things like life and death. Tell me what happened first."
So Palin gave up thinking about some philosophical issues, and fell into memory.
"I have been reading a book, and suddenly I heard Ryan's exclamation. Then I looked up and saw him being transmitted away. Then I saw the trap explode, and the red death cloud spread. Before I had time to escape, I was covered by the death cloud, and I felt extreme pain from my throat to my chest. Then I didn't know anything — until I was resurrected. "
"So, Ryan had an accident when he was breaking the trap?" Gerrard muttered, "I don't know how he is now … I hope he is okay."
At this time, Sui Xiong sneered.
"Don't worry, he is okay, he is very good now!"
A blue light was projected from the bone bracelet, and turned into a transparent screen in the air. The screen showed the scene of the forest where the treasure was located.
Ryan was busy shoveling soil to bury the big hole that Gerrard had dug. Sui Xiong gave him a close-up of his face, and saw that he was smiling and proud.
There was no need to say anything, and there was no need to think about it. Looking at his expression, Sui Xiong knew what had happened.
"Damn it!" Gerrard shouted angrily, "This despicable old thief! I won't forgive him! "
"It turns out … he plotted against us …" Palin shook his head in disbelief, "Why did he do this? Did he want to take the treasure for himself? "
"Why did he do this? Keep watching, and you will know. " Sui Xiong's voice echoed in the air, "Let's hold back our anger for a while, and see what this despicable old man wants to do."
"I believe that the cause and effect of everything will soon appear in front of us …"
