If a sword wielder died, they would obtain a sword with magical effects. If a dagger wielder died, they would obtain a dagger with magical effects.
And if a powerful Mage died …
"What a powerful force!"
The Noxus people revealed an unprecedented look of confidence while holding a staff that was brimming with powerful energy. When he looked at the remaining mercenaries, he couldn't help but reveal a greedy expression.
"Mr. Larov, I think we should still be allies. After all, who knows what traps are waiting for us."
Di Haluo immediately stood up. He gripped his sword tightly and looked at the male Mage nervously, ready to deal with his attack at any time. Of course, he also saw the pattern of the treasure, but if possible, he didn't want to get into a conflict with his employer. After all, the biggest taboo for mercenaries was to fight with their employers. Once they got into a conflict with their employers, it would be difficult for them to accept missions no matter what the reason was.
But he also knew that the Noxus people were most likely to make things difficult for them.
"Ah, of course, I know. So you don't have to worry. We Noxus people have always been on guard against enemies trying to sow discord. "
A greedy expression flashed across Larov's face. Although he wanted the blood of these mercenaries to become his spoils of war, the Noxus people were still rational. However, the Noxians were still rational. The traps here weren't something they could deal with alone. If Di Haruo wasn't with them, they wouldn't have been able to reach the treasure room below. Therefore, even though Larov wouldn't let any of these mercenaries walk out of the desert alive, he wouldn't lay his hands on them now.
"So, when we dismantle the traps, both sides should send some people. Otherwise, our losses will be greater … Hmm, why don't we go back first? Prepare to come again? "
The Noxus people made a suggestion that made Di Haluo wary, but he also felt a little relieved. Di Haluo couldn't find a reason to refuse.
"No problem."
Thus, the two of them tacitly looked at each other and decided to leave the ruins first. They would come back tomorrow to attack this place full of traps. But just as they walked back to the corridor where they had killed more than a dozen people … They were all silent because the corpses from before had already disappeared. What disappeared with the corpses were the things they used as markers, leaving behind only a clean stone path.
Di Haluo pulled back a Noxus people who were trying to walk back using their memories. He placed his sword on a flight of stairs that was previously thought to be safe. Then, a dense rain of arrows suddenly attacked the corridor. The Noxus people who were about to step on the stairs turned pale with fright. However, the following experiment made everyone's expression turn ugly because there were fatal traps on every step. In other words, if they wanted to get out, they could only ask someone to save them.
"This is terrible news."
He looked at his subordinates who were at a loss as well as the few lucky ones who had escaped this calamity. Lavrov immediately ordered the few lucky ones to return to the camp to gather reinforcements. As for the rest, they were to wait on the spot.
Although that was what they thought, reality was very harsh. The moment the few Noxus people who wanted to leave to search for reinforcements were about to return, the walls around them opened abruptly. Then, 13 hunting dogs with grayish-white bone carapaces and dark red skin like the Dark-Kin walked out of the openings in the walls and pounced on the few lucky survivors.
The screams, the sounds of biting, and the screams made the trapped people hold their breaths. When the last of the screams disappeared, a blood-soaked hound walked up to them with a head in its mouth and gnawed on the unlucky guy in front of them. And if that was all, it wouldn't be enough to make these battle-hardened people feel fear. What made them move was that after the appearance of the hunting dogs, there were continuous sounds of mechanisms vibrating in the room.
"Damn it … It seems like we can only continue down."
Di Haluo really regretted not bringing Sivir with him. Therefore, after he said this, he quickly led his people to the front of the next aisle and began to look for the mechanism above to break free from this hopeless situation. But even though the traps along the way were still the same ones that he was familiar with, his mood was getting worse.
"It seems like that is the case."
Lavrov's face was gloomy, but he still followed Di Haluo closely and led the team downward. He could only hope that those who were left outside would discover the situation as soon as possible so that they could think of a way to rescue them. Otherwise, they would most likely be in grave danger. But he also knew that by the time the people outside realized that something was wrong, it would probably be the next morning. After all, it was almost night when they arrived and they initially planned to explore the place and rescue the people outside.
But now, they were all inside.
As they continued to move toward the bottom of the palace, Sivir and the others finally realized that something was amiss. After all, Di Haluo and the others hadn't sent out any news for a long time. But they didn't care much about it. Usually, such a situation would occur after encountering a more troublesome situation. Hence, after the leading female mage returned to the campsite, the people who were about to rescue Di Haruo and the others stopped in their tracks.
But what puzzled Li Ke was that this woman, who hadn't interacted with him along the way, suddenly approached him.
"You don't look like a person who is willing to be mediocre. Can I hear your story?"
This woman's cheeks were rather delicate, and she had long black hair that was a plus in Li Ke's eyes. She also had a voluptuous body and was only a head shorter than him. After she came to Li Ke's side, she gently stroked her long hair, sat down beside Li Ke, and said those words.
"Noxus people are all so free?"
Li Ke looked at this woman with some doubts. He didn't think that there was anything about him that could attract her attention, so he was actually very resistant to her approach.
