Even boasting, Locke coaxed away Harkwen.

Now the people around Locke don't have any opinions, and coaxing these little greenskins does have a lot of benefits. At the very least, there will be one more supernumerary force in the future.

In fact, when the news from here reached Eva, there was no longer the kind of voice that thought Locke was spending money indiscriminately.

The Mill Town strategy has been sent to Iva every now and then, making the big names in Iva realize that the Scourge is still the enemy that can give them fear.

The reason why they can live in Iva now is because of the Silver Dawn of Baron Tairossos, and General Abydis of the Hand of Tyr, as well as the soldiers of Tyran who have joined the Scarlet Crusade and carry the danger for them.

Many people have become imperceptibly concerned about the situation in the eastern region of Lordaeron. Some nobles began to donate food and goods to the army in the east...

This was a surprise to Locke, but he was happy.

This is a good thing, which shows that they are very satisfied with the life they are living now, and the money and property donated are to make the people who are working hard for them on the front line to persevere to the end. With this kind of enemy, the nobles under their command will not be corrupted too quickly because of power. Although it has its own security bureau supervision, there is also a prosecutorial system of prosecutors. But this visible threat to their own lives is what can most alert them.

The ruins of the building, which collapsed in the House of Agamande, were quickly moved out by the soldiers. Locke walked inside, searching the ruins left behind by the council chamber for possible mechanisms.

Demethia and Claire, Durand silently watched Locke spin around in circles, kicking here and there. Locke's actions let them know that the treasure should be right down here. It's just that the goblin made a bit of a big move, and the entrance here may have been destroyed.

"Lord Duland, go and gather some of your soldiers. I think Mistress Harvey will need to dig something out of the ground. Demytia turned to Durand and whispered, and Durand nodded and left.

Locke did not refute Demytia's words, and it is likely that the soldiers really need to dig out the secret room below...

Standing still, Locke looked around, and while the torch was turning, Locke remembered the sound of gears turning in the room. Locke looked down at the cleared entrance to the Agamandel Agamande's treasure trove beneath his feet.

Locke set his eyes on the partially collapsed walls on both sides, and he involuntarily walked over, and was soon pleasantly surprised.

The walls on both sides are hollow, and the thick stones wrapped around the outside hide the mechanisms in the walls. Iron wires hung down on the inside of the wall, and a lot of debris got into the wall and blocked the underneath. Locke found the location of the torch from memory, and he quickly found the misshapen torch holder outside, tugging at the wire inside.

Locke tried to tug at the lampholder in his hand, but the part under the wire didn't break, and the rubble only blocked it, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

At Locke's beckoning, the guards stepped forward. With hammers and other tools, they carefully broke the wall completely. Little by little, the wall was broken open, and in the lower part near the foundation, a huge propeller shaft was laid along the wall. The propeller shaft was buried by debris, revealing gears and bearings with dark red rust.

The guards cleaned out all the rubble from the hollow wall, and in the process, Locke never threw away the wire in his hand that was responsible for opening the mechanism.

When the outer wall was cleared, Locke found the axis of rotation along the tes in his hand. From memory, Locke stepped forward and grabbed the gears of the teleportation shaft tied to the wires, and turned them a little over twice.

Click! Click! Click! Click!

All the gears in front of Locke began to turn with difficulty, and Locke threw away the silk thread in his hand, and he turned his head to look at the entrance to the secret room behind him. It struggled to expose its mouth, and the boulder that served as a slab shrank back a little.

"Wow!" A swarthy hairy hand came out of it, and a hideous-looking human head with long hair came out of it. Its dry skin and bone-baring arms are all evidence that it is an undead.

No sooner had the undead crawled out of it than his neck was severed by the Scarlet Guards. But as the entrance continued to open, one undead after another crawled out...

Seeing this, Locke chuckled in his heart!

The treasurer of the Agamander family had said that the chamber had been discovered by the Scourge undead, because she had been dragged out of it by the undead. I can understand that the undead who are turning out of it now are the ones they got into after someone opened it before.

Could it be that those natural disasters and undead discovered that there was a secret passage inside? Or is it that the Scourge has a nearby burial chamber that extends here?

While Locke was nervously worried about the gold inside, the Scarlet Iron Guards killed several undead skeletons in a row, and nothing came out of them.

"Wait!" Just as the guards were about to go down to check on the inside, Demityas stopped them. She closed her eyes and chanted softly, and a bright cloud of light appeared from the middle of her hands.

It floated into the chamber.

For a moment, there were a few roars of the undead coming from inside, and then there was no more sound.

Demitea slowly opened her eyes, and she cautiously looked at the secret passages below and said, "This is hollowed out underneath, and many secret passages lead to various places. I think Lord Harvey, we need to send someone to purge the undead below. ”

Locke smiled bitterly, it seems that this treasure has been taken away by the undead....

"Let's go down and see," Locke resisted the loss on his face, "and see if these damn undead have left me with anything..."

"Don't worry!" Demithia stopped Locke again, and she instructed the soldiers, "Enlarge this entrance, so that there are more and safer people going on." ”

"Hey! How can it be so troublesome! Gates, who had been sitting on the rubble for a long time, couldn't help it, he jumped down from the stone and said, taking out his staff with a huge ruby, "Everyone stand back, let me come!" ”

Locke and the others retreated, the goblin muttered a spell, and the moisture in the surrounding air began to evaporate rapidly, and Locke saw that the moss on the surrounding stones was rapidly dying, and the air was filled with a hot and dry smell.

The visible red elements coalesced in front of the goblin Gates, and they combined drop by drop to form a large man about Locke's height.

Isn't this the element of fire?

Can a fire wizard still control the fire element?

This guy who is about the same as the blue fat man is red, with two dark elemental bracers on his wrists, and a pair of mung bean-like eyes staring at the goblin, and speaking a series of strange languages.

Locke watched as the goblin pointed to the gap in the ground, and kept saying unintelligible words in his mouth. The Fire Elemental quickly accepted his order, turned around and stood at the entrance, raised his energized arms and smashed them at the entrance!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Gravel flies, black smoke miasma...

Locke had to keep backing away with the others, and at the same time he was complaining to himself... Goblins are indeed a violent race... It seems that violence is in their blood...

After a few moments, the sound of slamming the ground was gone, and the fire elemental floated down, disappearing into the massive entrance.

Gates turned to Locke and explained, "I have an experiment that requires a lot of undead rot, and I'm going to take it around and see how much I can find." Rest assured, Great Lord, you will never miss one! ”

Of course, Gates naturally has no opinion on this kind of thing, and he will not worry about his safety. Even if the great wizard of the fire system encounters a crisis, there is no problem in escaping.

When Locke came to the entrance and looked down, he was slightly surprised, it was not what he had imagined, it was a large and deep tomb. On the contrary, it is no different from when I first went down. The undead simply dug through the stone walls on both sides and led to other places.

After cleaning up the debris made by the fire elemental just now, the guards walked down with torches, and Locke looked carefully, the torches on the walls on both sides had long since disappeared. Turning over and jumping down, he was spinning in circles here with a frown. Without the four torches in the secret room, how can the hidden treasure tunnel below be opened?

At this time, Demitia walked down step by step with the help of the ladders brought by the guards. By the light of the torches in her hands, she looked at the patterns on the walls on either side for a long time.

Locke jumped on the floor of the secret passage for a few moments, helpless, for the treasure room was at his feet.

"There should be a circle here," Demetia looked at the deep tunnels in front of her with a torch, "there should have been two walls on either side, but they were destroyed, which made the circle useless. ”

Locke spread his hands helplessly, he pointed to his feet and said, "The treasure is down here, and I can't get in now." ”

Demithia thought for a moment, then she turned to Locke and said, "Lord Harvey, let the wizards come down and try it, they should know how to open this kind of secret room." This is their usual means of hiding their wealth. ”

Locke could only nod, and Gates ran to the tunnels to play with the scattered undead. But with him came a number of wizards, which, according to Demytia, did not seem to be too complicated sorcery....

Soon a wizard was called down, Locke didn't know him, there were more wizards working for Eva, Locke only needed them to wear the scarlet crusader robes.

The wizard circled the secret passage a few times, and after looking at the carved patterns around him, he quickly made a decision.

"It's just a little trick, not even witchcraft." The wizard muttered to himself, and a burning blue flame appeared in his fingers.

He shook his hand, and blue flames flew out of his hand, landing precisely on the four corners and igniting with an eerie light.

But almost at the same time, a sudden sound rang out on the ground where Locke was standing, and Locke hurriedly jumped out, and the ground began to collapse diagonally downward, and a passage appeared again.

"A secret room within a secret room..."
