Chapter 138: Another World (22)

Later, Scar Jack found a group of teammates, which seemed to look like a mercenary group.
Shao Ci originally thought that it was unnecessary to have so many people, but Scar Jack was very insistent and said that there are so many people to increase the chance of success, Shao Ci nodded.
After figuring out what the mission was, everyone went on the road. After all, Shao Ci had no intention of staying here for a few more days.
The underground ruins are quite large, and there is an entrance not far from the village, hidden under the rocks.
After entering the ruins, Shao Ci felt that the temperature had cooled down in an instant, and the surroundings were completely dark, which could only be illuminated by oil lamps.
It can be seen that the building looks like it, but most of the building is still buried in the sand.
After all, there was a country in the desert underground, and this is probably what the original capital city was like. The monsters are relatively weak, but the valuables in the buildings have also been turned over.
It is said that the deeper the remains, the stronger the monsters, and the more treasures inside.
Everyone knows that Shao Ci is the master of gold and a powerful magician, and his attitude is respectful.
Of course, some people are secretly disdainful of Shao Ci, and do not believe that a magician will come here. It is estimated that a few small magics claim to be upstarts like magicians.
The monsters encountered along the way were solved by everyone. Later, when they encountered several powerful monsters, everyone was flustered. In the past, it was impossible to meet such monsters and immortal a few people. It was even more serious that it would lead to mass destruction.
Unexpectedly, after everyone was ready to sacrifice, these monsters were resolved by Shao Ci's neat and clear magic.
After such a thing, no one questioned the level of Shao Ci anymore. Everyone looked at Shao Ci with the same eyes as the gods, no matter what such a powerful character wants to do in the death desert, anyway, I have Powerful magicians, they don't have to worry about mass destruction.
Because of Shao's resignation, he was particularly quick, but after a day of hard work, everyone had already reached the entrance of the underground palace.
Because the surrounding monsters are very powerful, few people have come here, and the dark walls of the palace are spread with dark vines, full of a spooky and strange atmosphere.
Everyone was here for the first time, and they were immediately excited and nervous, and couldn't help looking at the only Scar Jack who had ever entered it.
Scar Jack's expression intensified. "The last time I came here, I found a shortcut to the palace nearby. There will be fewer monsters there, but it is not easy to deal with."
Of course, even if you know that the monsters are not good enough to deal with everyone, you have no intention of retreating, but you are even more excited. Everyone is here who may come here holding the possibility that they may die here.
They accepted Shao Ci's employment not only for the few gold coins, but also because they were eager to enter the palace where there are countless treasures hidden in the legend. If they are lucky, they can go out and become a master.
Scar Jack led the crowd through a cave. It is said that this was the sewer of an ancient palace. After drilling a dark passage, everyone's eyes suddenly turned on.
It is completely different from the dim ruins outside. The palace interior has not been damaged at all, all the buildings are intact, and even small flowers are growing on the grass that was originally a garden.
I do not know where to shine the light, the palace is very bright.
Everyone was in the same place, looking at the scene in front of them, even if they were told that there were people living in this palace, they would not be surprised.
"Everyone be careful." Only Scar Jack, who has seen such a scene, is very calm. "This is the most dangerous one. Because of the best relationship preserved, the ancient magic circle inside is still running, which is more than the monster. Is more threatening. "
Everyone was vigilant, but the excitement still remained.
This palace is so well-preserved, it is conceivable that the treasures in it must never have been touched.
Shao Ci also became nervous, looking at the palace in front of him, he actually felt a little familiar.
And Shao Ci hasn't seen a few palaces since crossing this world, remember it after a little recall. Isn't this the palace that I've seen in Ewings' dreams!
He never believed that it was a coincidence, and quickly wanted to ask what happened to Ewings, maybe he could make this task faster.
However, the connection between the two people seemed to be blocked, no matter how hard Shao Ci tried hard, he could not feel a little Ewings breath.
"Trouble." Shao Ci's face changed, because Ewings had not appeared since he entered the city. He didn't know when he could never reach Ewings ... now look at it should be underground Palaces matter.
Then the person next to him asked Shao Ci to go there, and Shao Ci set his heart, thinking of his goal. The crown inside the underground palace should be placed in the treasure house. Where is it. "
There was a burst of cheering from the people around, and it was clear that everyone couldn't wait to go to the treasure house.
Scar Jack's expression became more tense. "In the underground treasure house, there is a very powerful monster guarding it."
Immediately, someone dismissed him: "We have a powerful magician, even if the monster is strong, it is nothing."
Shao Ci: "!" Although it is a good thing to be praised, he has no confidence at all!
"That monster can become a human to fool others, so everyone should be careful, and if you meet any stranger, don't be merciful." Jack Scar said.
The others nodded naturally, not to mention that strangers may be monsters, even if they were really personal, they would kill directly in order to be able to divide the treasure with one less person.
"I was here last time, so I still know a little about the terrain." Scar Jack said: "We are now in the outer garden of the palace, but the treasure house is in the center of the palace and we have to pass through it. There are four or five halls, and there are not many monsters here, so be careful. "
The words of the accusation were almost the same, and everyone packed themselves up and continued to walk forward.
Shao Ci stood cautiously in the middle. In the original text, Wendell rescued a local girl, then learned that the girl was a descendant of the royal family of the underground palace, and then obtained what map and a necklace from it.
Relying on the map, Wendell successfully entered the underground palace, and the necklace also blocked all magic arrays and monsters. Finally, he easily defeated several obstructing monsters and completed the task.
But Shao Ci has long forgotten what the girl ’s name was, and there aren't many villages in the desert ... How could he run into such a thing that completely needs the protagonist's aura!
So now Shao Ci can only rely on himself, and he is still a little bit worried about the unknown.
I do not know where the light shines from all places clearly, everyone stepped on the light-readable floor tiles of the palace, and Shao Ci suddenly felt the chill spreading on his feet.
He looked down and saw his own shadow reflected by the floor tiles, and suddenly he seemed to see those dark eyes.
Shao Ci was suddenly frightened with a cold sweat, and then he looked at it and thought it was just an ordinary reflection. "Did I just read it wrong ..."
If it is somewhere else, it will not matter. This underground palace Shao Ci, who has no idea how many people are dead, will become uneasy.
Suddenly an exclamation came from the front, and the people around him suddenly flashed away. Shao Ci quickly looked up and saw that half of the body of one person was actually trapped in the floor. He was panicked, and people around him tried to pull him out, but it was useless.
"Oops!" Scar Jack said, "This is the palace's defensive magic formation. Only when it is closed can the man be rescued!"
The crowd immediately panicked. Shao Ci checked it with his mental strength and quickly noticed that something was wrong. Looking down, he could even see that the ground began to fluctuate.
"Get out of here!" Shao yanked and pushed away Scar Jack next to him, throwing a light magic directly into the ground where Scar Jack was standing.
There was something broken like a mirror on the ground in an instant, and the original light-readable floor instantly lost its original luster and became ordinary stones.
"Huh ..." Shao Ci breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head, and saw that the first person who had fallen in was left with only his head still outside, and that head had also turned into a stone, apparently The dead can't die anymore.
"Looks like he's not saved." Scar Jack gratefully looked at Shao Ci, and said, "Thank you for saving my life."
Although one person died, everyone felt a sense of fortunateness. In fact, it was already very good luck to have died here.
The next journey was more vigilant, and they soon arrived at the first hall.
The hall was full of magnificent furnishings, and the floor was even covered with soft carpets. After everyone saw that Shao Ci had no instructions, they quickly entered and collected what seemed valuable.
Shao Ci found a place to sit down on the side, so exciting along the way that he felt he needed to rest.
"Not good!" Scar Scar next to him realized something, "Dangerous here!"
"What?" Shao Ci stood up sharply and looked around nervously.
Experiencing the events in the corridor before, he was already a bird of surprise.
"When we came last time, our group clearly searched for everything here, but now it's exactly the same as it was ..." Scar Jack's expression took a little fear.
Just the moment his voice fell, suddenly many dark vines were drilled out of the gap and hurled towards everyone.
There is still a lot of magic on this vine. As soon as it is wrapped around a person, it absorbs a lot of human vitality. It can be said that being wrapped up is a death.
The people's faces changed, and they fled towards the exit position like a flee, and a vine suddenly appeared at the foot of Shao Ci. When he was about to entangle his body, the scar Jack next to him suddenly flung him aside The vine got entangled with Scar Jack.
The vine was amazingly powerful, but Scar Jack's face turned pale for a moment.
"You ..." Shao Ci looked at him in shock, "Why do you save me."
"Master Magician ... you must not die ..." Scar Jack gritted his teeth: "Only you can avenge me and my companions!"
"You wait." Shao Ci quickly squatted down, grasped Scar's hand, and continuously passed the healing power into his body.
Scar Jack immediately looked at Shao Ci in surprise, "You actually will return to surgery ..."
"Now isn't the time to say this!" Shao Ci saw ScarJack didn't seem to be in danger for the time being. He directly dropped a few fireballs to burn the vine, and then pulled ScarJack to his feet.
Delaying these times, the number of vines in the palace has become extremely scary. It is obviously impractical to save people. Shao Ci and Scar Jack hurried out, and the others were long gone.
"It seems that we can only leave by ourselves." Shao said, "If you are lucky, maybe other people will see you again ..."
The two continued to walk forward, and the road went unexpectedly smoothly. In addition, after entering the main hall, the two would not go to pick up anything, but they arrived at the door of the treasure house where their destination was soon.
... It's too fast!
Shao Ci stood at the entrance to the underground treasure house and couldn't help but feel a bit entangled. If he felt that it would be too smooth, there would be a conspiracy. He asked subconsciously: "Speaking of, where did you encounter that terrible monster last time?"
"Last time?" Scar Jack seemed to be thinking about something and lowered his head.
Shao Ci suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Scar Jack said that he and his companions were deceived by a monster, and in the end, he survived alone ... How is this routine a little familiar, and why things happen now are similar.
Will their group of people really believe in someone casually encountered in the underground ruins? And if that monster can deceive so many people, will it change into another person's appearance?
And speaking of it, why did he find so many people to come with, now it is useless at all, it is just to die, and it was Scar Jack who raised this matter at the beginning ...
Think about it this way and feel that there are too many problems with Scar Jack along the way!
"It seems you found something?" The sound rang from behind him, and Shao Ci turned back suddenly, only to see a green awn, and he was pushed straight down the entrance of the passage the next moment.
Lying down! !!
Shao Ci rolled straight down the steps and quickly added a few defensive magics to himself before he fell into a fool.
After Shao's speech rolled to the bottom, he couldn't even see anything in this treasure house. He stood up nervously, picked up his staff, looked up at the red-haired man who was slowly walking down, his face was ugly, "You Are you the monster guarding this palace? "
He's been fooled by a monster for so long? !!
But he walked all the way with this person but he didn't notice anything, even the system didn't prompt. What's going on ... If it was a monster, it wouldn't be possible to show no magic.
"You can understand that." Jack Scar, who had a weird pattern on his face, laughed, and those eyes were glowing green in the dark hall. At this time, he didn't look like a human at all. "Anyone who has been to this palace will be cursed. Even if they leave here, they will not be able to get rid of the curse here, and it will only become my puppet."
"Is that so ..." So all the people who come into this palace are already enemies? !!
Shao Ci stepped back subconsciously. Why didn't Wendell encounter such a terrible monster in the original text?
The reason why the system does not prompt, it can only be classified until the other party has not released the ontology, so it is not a formal relationship ...
"But you are really weird." 'Scar Scar' looked over and said coldly, "I was just trying to trick some people down, but I didn't expect that only you in this group could not be cursed, and even You will use the healing method of the temple, and you are certainly more than just a magician. "
"What the do you want to do?" Shao Ci grasped the wand he bought in order to pretend to be a magician, his expression became more tense, "If I do, you can't resist me."
"Compared to that, you're starting to feel dizzy now." "Scar Jack" smiled and said, as if he was determined that he would not lose.
"What?" Shao stepped back and really felt dizzy, but the picture in front of him turned into a ghost for a moment. He couldn't help but hesitated, "You, what did you do to me?"
"I just poisoned you a little." The other side said, "I was thinking if it wouldn't work, but now it seems that this cure has no effect on this poison. You can't resist it and give up. Struggle. "
"Oops ..." Shao Ci fell to the ground uncontrollably, and the staff in his hand rolled away, but he had no strength at all.
In this way, he will really be killed by this monster!
"Don't worry." Shao Ci felt groggy and felt a cold hand stroke his cheek. "I won't kill you."
"Because, I just lack a partner."
Shao Ci finally remembered before coma. He seemed to have used the healing technique on Scar Jack ... as long as the other party is a non-human creature, he can feel good.
Didn't expect this behavior actually saved his life!
…………
...
When Shao Ci woke up, he felt extremely heavy and couldn't move.
He opened his eyes, only to find that his hands and feet were locked by chains, only one piece of clothing was picked up, and his body was placed in a soft seat.
He seems to be in a dorm of this palace, and the furniture and decoration around it are quite gorgeous.
... now, you should be able to see the prototype of that monster?
Shao Ci thought about it, suddenly he clasped his neck with both hands from behind, Shao Ci's frightened body stiffened, and he turned his head to look hard, and saw a brown-haired boy. He smiled shyly.
[嘀嘀 嘀 ... A new monster was detected ... According to the rules of the system, the replacement of the Raiders was started ... The replacement was completed. The current Raiders is Anlaisser (Poison Scorpion). 】
[This is the fifth monster to be purified by the host. Half of the target has been reached. The host refuels. 】
Shao Ci: "...?" Wait a minute, isn't this race of monsters a little scary?
Shao Ci, such as spiders and scorpions, is also very resistant, although not to be frightened. But this type is also the kind of horrible existence that he feels numb when he sees it, quickly looks away and doesn't even want to look at it.
At the beginning of the world, Shao Ci also thought that there would be no such magical monsters ... but such heavy stuff didn't appear in the original (or else it was quickly turned into a slag). He was relieved.
What happened now? Hey!
"System, can I give up the target of this raider ..." Even the battle-hardened Shao Ci, could not help but trembled and asked the system.
[Of course not, what are you talking about, host? 】 The system replied mercilessly. [You see the current situation, is this something you can refuse? 】
Ahhhh he knew it would happen!
Shao Ci had to cheer up, endure the fear, and seriously looked at the teenager behind him.
The poison scorpion or something is obviously a very powerful and terrible monster, but the human form is just a fifteen or sixteen year old.
He has brown hair and a pair of pale green eyes, and his appearance is very clear. He seems to be extremely shy, and bows his head even in the eyes of Shang Shaoci.
If you didn't know that this was actually the poisonous scorpion, Shao Ci would think he was just an ordinary harmless boy!
Moreover, when the body is clearly attached, the tone is so secondary, and when the original body is used, is it such an introverted personality?
"You're awake." Anleser whispered and walked from behind to Shao Ci.
Looking at Shao Ci, there was no difference between Anlai Se and human beings. Just thinking of the other party's prototype, Shao Ci had a hairy feeling ... This is already instinctual fear, and he can't help it!
"It used to be a bit overdone, but is it okay now?" Anleser turned his head and reached out and stroked Shao Ci's cheek, staring anxiously at him.
Shao Ci shivered, "OK, okay ..."
It would be more perfect if you could release your hand.
Shao Ci suddenly felt dizzy when he thought of how long he had to spend with such a terrible monster.
