Vol 8 Chapter 43: Fort inside

The 30-degree is not good enough. Fortunately, Qin Lun is not an ordinary person. Even though a few of them were slightly injured, they were not a problem with their peers. The passage was not long, and the entire team did not go far and saw the end of the passage.
"The torches are all gone!" Kelly frowned slightly, waving her hand backwards.
Everyone extinguished the torch according to the words, and there was not much disagreement. At this time, as they went deep into the passage, there was already light in front, and the brightness was far beyond the previous furnace area.
The reason why there is light in the furnace area is due to the transmission of external light on the ice wall, and the light here seems a bit different.

Is there still a descendant of the Sanna dwarf here?
There was a strange thought in the minds of everyone.
"Lor, look at the front!" Stark moved in his heart and whispered to the thieves in the group.
Kelly looked back at the two, but did not say anything to stop it. Her strength is the strongest among all, otherwise she will not be at the forefront. However, the martial arts profession is not as good as the thieves in the exploration. Since the light is sufficient here, the work of exploring the road is naturally handed over to professionals.
Of course, even so, Lor does not need a person to do exploration, an Elf Ranger around Milares consciously stepped forward as his backup. The Elf Ranger not only has night vision ability, but also the detective ability to detect traps is also the old line, just to complement the human thieves.
Soon after the two went, the Elf Ranger turned back with excitement and waved at the team below, indicating that there was no danger ahead.

Wow!
Walked up the top of the passage and looked at the scenery in front. Many people in the team gave amazement from the bottom of my heart.
At the end of this passage is an open huge gate. The Fort Gate also has the architectural style of Iron Star Fortress, and the semi-covered portal is a heavy stone gate that is five feet thick.
Under the stone gate, there is a row of half-meter-high iron shovel. Although at first glance, the rust on the rust is already attached to the ground and the stone gate, but these things can still be seen. It was originally the pulley of Shimen.
The entire Fort Gate is more than 20 meters high and about 30 meters wide. Each of them stands a stone statue of a dwarf more than 30 meters high. The stone statue looks awkward, looking straight ahead, wearing a cloak, bare upper body, hands folded against a double-edged tomahawk.
Despite thousands of years, the two dwarf stone statues are still full of oppression, and the long lines on the cheeks and the muscle lines of the arms are clearly distinguishable. The dust covered with the body not only did not cover the majesty of the stone statues, but set them more solemn and solemn, just like the warriors who had just returned from the battlefield. Perhaps only the mottled and fine cracks on the stone statue reveal a little trace of the years.
At the upper end of the Fort Gate, there is a star-studded stone carving. Although the Sunna dwarf in ancient times lived in the mountainside, it still seems to worship the mysterious space. A starry stone carving was carved above the gate of the castle.
"Steel Stars!" Qin Lun looked up at the old stone in the center of the starry sky, and there was a fascination in his eyes.
Standing in front of this huge dwarf fortress door, everyone felt a thick vicissitudes of breath coming from the face, could not help but hold their breath, silently came down.
After a long while, the people who came back from the shock, finally remembered to look inside the Fort. At this time, Qin Lun and other talents discovered where the light source came from.
"It's a natural night stone!" Mileras pointed at the glowing stones around the fort gates.
Qin Lun’s line of sight swept around and found that the fort gate should be the main entrance of the Iron Star Fort. The surrounding is not only connected to the passage from the furnace area, but also several larger and wider stone ramps.
Some of these ramps are upwards, and some of the ramps are downwards, and the upwardly extending ramps are estimated to connect the iron star to the outside of the mountain. The downward ramp should be connected to other furnace areas or ore storage areas.
"Did you two have just entered the castle to investigate?" Unlike other women in the team who are addicted to the remains of the dwarves, Robin's mind is still very clear, reaching out and asking Lor and the elf ranger to ask.
"No, just look at the door." Lor and the Elf Ranger glanced at each other and shook their heads gently. "However, from the inside environment, there are no traces left by the creatures, and the dust is dusty and ashes. Perhaps we are the first visitors to come here for thousands of years."
"Let's go in and see, but you still have to bother you to explore the road and see if there are any traps and defensive devices inside!" Robin indulged and waved to let the two leave.
Crossing the gates of Iron Star, a huge square appeared in front of everyone. After arriving here, Qin Lun and others finally saw a building that conformed to the characteristics of a short human body.
The square is oval in shape, and rows of stone houses stand neatly around. However, it can be seen that the stone house here does not seem to be a residential area, it should be a business district in the castle. Some of the structures are still intact, and there are some unique signs in front of the door.
Some signs that are not very serious damage can be seen on the easy-to-understand logo. For example: the logo of the hammer and iron felt, the logo of the sword and shield, the sign of the bow and arrow, and so on.
What surprised Qin Lun was that he actually saw the sign of the stack of gold coins on the signboard of a large building.

Credits? Or a bank? The Sannah dwarfs appeared in the financial industry thousands of years ago?
Qin Lun grinned and couldn’t help but admire the 璀璨 civilization created by the Sunata dwarf.
In the center of the dwarf plaza, there is a large circular fountain with a large area. The fountain is from bottom to top. There are seven floors from big to small, like a small tower cake. Of course, this fountain thousands of years ago did not have water, and now the dust accumulated inside is only a few feet thick.
The drainage system in the Iron Star Fortress is very developed. In front of some complete buildings, most people can see the canals covered with slate around the house. The dome stone above the square is also inlaid with a lot of luminous stones, but it is a little dim due to the large area of ​​the square.
Thousands of years ago, there were certainly other magic lights on it, and at least in the days of dawn, the interior of the castle would be as bright as the outside of the mountain.
The crowd in the team spread out at this time and searched in this square. Milleras and several Elf Rangers are exploring the history of the ruins, while the male apostles are trying to find some of the precious items left by the Sanna dwarf.
Of course, whether it is an apostle or a plot elf, there is another person in the ranks that cannot be seen. That is the female creatures that are purely strolling and hunting, such as Ilistin, Nicole, and Kelly.
In fact, after seeing that this square really did not threaten, even Robin, the head of the lost and talented newcomer, began to move closer to the brainless property.
"Ferrar, look at you, I found a artifact of the Sonata dwarf!"
"Iristin, it's just a hammer without a wooden handle, or a scrap of iron slag..."
"Ferrar, look at you, gems~~"
"Well, this...not a waste! But there is still a gap between broken glass beads and gems..."
"Ferrar, look at you..."
"Iristin, you will collect it slowly, I will wait to see it again, okay?~~" Qin Lun felt that his face was about to cramp, and he licked his teeth with no expression, and started the blast step. Far away from the female creatures who gave up treatment.
After a long while, Qin Lun finally can conclude that they should not find valuable items in the ruins. Judging from the buildings he explored, except for the dust in the room, everything else was empty and clean, showing that the original Iron Star dwarves were evacuated in an orderly manner.
As for the reason for their abandonment of Iron Star Fortress, the time interval is too long, unless it can be found in the written records, it is unlikely to be clear. Qin Lun wants to come, nothing more than a decline in the underground fire, can no longer use the dwarf for forging, or the threat of some foreign enemies near the Alamir Mountains.
"Well? No!" Kelly, who was hanging out with Robin, suddenly shook her ears and a strange look on her face.
"Kelly, what's wrong?" Robin put away a smile on his face and asked strangely.
"I just wanted to hear something... I’m gone now!" Kelly wrinkled her eyebrows and said with a certainty, "You...get the team together, I heard it again!"
"Yeah!" Robin looked quickly and dignified.
Although she did not hear anything, she had a good habit with Kelly for a long time. The martial arts family is savvy, and the five senses are much more acute than other combat professions without special skills. The Lost Newcomers have relied on Kelly’s ears more than once to avoid potential dangers.
"Head of Robin, what's wrong?" The crowd soon gathered in one place, although Milares and others still have some reluctance, but everyone still knows that safety is the most important.
"Kelly sister seems to have heard some unusual movements!" Robin whispered to everyone.
Hearing Robin's explanation, everyone was quiet, breathing lightly, waiting for Kelly's feedback.
"Over there! Stark followed me, the two elf princes and assistants were in the middle, the thieves and the ranger broke!" Hearing for a while, Kelly finally turned his face and flew toward the south channel of the Dwarf Square. .
Stark opened his mouth, but did not speak, followed by a footstep, and immediately followed Kelly. Although he does not have the strength of Kai Liqiang, but also a veteran second-order powerhouse ~EbookFREE.me~ and is a strong defense mt career, naturally to be a pioneer.
Since entering Iron Star Fort, he has now gained an additional 0.005% of exploration. Although there is no mission story, there are not many additional rewards for world exploration. Moreover, this time it is still double reward, and the contribution points that can be obtained are no less than a main story.
Of course, it can accumulate to 0.005%, and there are also contributions from other fortress members. After they found some clues, most of them first let Stark contact, so that he can get the main world exploration.
The sudden change made Qin Lun somewhat surprised. He quietly stepped back and let Ilistin beside him. The pupils of the eyes suddenly emerged with a black-red target and a silver dial. The line of perception was like a flying tentacles, and it quickly rushed into the ramp in front of Kelly.
Numerous black and white lines intertwined into the retina of Qin Lun, and finally stayed in a space at the end of the ramp.
"Oh?! Interesting!" After seeing the scene ahead, Qin Lun lowered his head slightly, and his mouth tilted a weird smile.
