In the ruins, the more astonishing the wealth, the more terrible the danger usually represents.

A magic weapon, plus a huge gem, adds up, it is enough to be worth the accumulation of small nobles for decades.

With such a large value, it is normally impossible not to have a mechanism. At this time, Rooney also felt that Jessica's judgment was correct, even if he didn't ask his master to help see if there was a magic mechanism, then he should find a more professional scholar who could trust them to see what doorways the ritual altar had.

But they actually chose to do it themselves.

The mercenaries who don't know one of the four big characters, what else can they do besides being reckless.

No, something happened, and it even affected them.

Kelissa approached Jessica, smelled the meat, and said a little strangely, "You're not of werewolf blood, you're of cat-man blood, right?" ”

Jessica looked confused.

"How can a werewolf catch rats?"

"Why don't you catch it? That fat vole is meaty and delicious. When I used to be a beggar, I survived by catching a mouse near the sewer every now and then. But the rats in the city were thin and dry, and I ate even their heads at that time. If you eat one, you can starve for days. ”

You say goodbye. Kelissa was on the verge of crying when she heard this, this little guy used to be so pitiful.

Rooney, on the other hand, is also talking.

"I need to know what happened when you opened the mechanism." Rooney didn't have a good face: "After all, we are now implicated by you." Of course, if you don't want to say it, we'll go our separate ways. Although it is more likely that we will survive in a group, we are not in trouble with the three of us, and we are not willing to stay with the people who have explained our reasons. ”

The expressions of the three mercenaries are not very good-looking, after all, they have just killed a companion, and now they are being questioned again.

But they also know that now is not the time for antagonism.

The middle-aged mercenary was silent for a while, and then told the story.

Two days ago, after the departure of the Rooney trio. The mercenary Lina placed a dagger shaped like a key into the ceremony table, and Al held a shield at her side.

After the dagger entered the hole, it turned on its own. The two of them were cautious and were about to retreat, but Lina shouted at this time: "My hand...... was glued. ”

Al threw away his shield and hugged her to drag her back, but at this moment, the emerald in the statue snake's mouth lit up. The green light illuminated the entire cave as if it were a different dimension of the Demon Realm.

Lina's whole body began to tremble, but her mouth opened wide and she couldn't even speak, and her body dried up at a rapid pace.

Holding her Ali, she felt a strong suction force that seemed to be sucking something inside of her.

He hurriedly let go.

Then Lina, under the gaze of the three of them, turned into a dry corpse in just a dozen seconds.

The emerald in the snake's mouth is even brighter.

Later, in the black coffin in the cave, many skeletons in armor stood up and pursued them. When the three of them escaped from the cave, they looked back and found that the cave had become a palace by this time.

"Looks like we're going to have to shut down that mechanism, or we won't be able to get out." Rooney said.

The middle-aged mercenary frowned and said, "Why don't we just break the barrier and go out?" ”

Rooney snorted, "This is a super large barrier, with our ability, it's strange that we can break it." And what if the barrier is broken, what if something terrible happens? For example, the magic turbulence or vortex in the enchantment. ”

Except for Kelissa, who barely knew some simple shadow spells, the others didn't know much about magic. But as professionals, they also know how terrible magic turbulence and magic vortex can be. Even true magicians do not dare to experience the power of the magic turbulence for themselves.

"That key will drain life force, even if we go back there, who will dial it? You? ”

The young mercenary confronts Rooney with this inescapable question.

Rooney frowned as well.

It's normal that no one wants to die. But if the dagger is pulled out, it still needs to absorb the life force, then who will get it? There has to be a personal sacrifice to pull the sword out.

As soon as these words came out, the two groups of people, who were already distrustful of each other, immediately became more suspicious of each other.

Rooney stepped back slightly, intentionally or unintentionally in front of Kelissa.

Jessica roasted the vole and gave it to Kelissa and Rooney, not the other three.

Then one side eats delicious barbecue, and the other side nibbles on dry food.

The atmosphere on both sides is getting quieter and quieter, and it is also getting more and more awkward.

Although Kelissa and Rooney were eating, they glanced at each other from time to time, extremely wary.

Jessica, on the other hand, seemed much more heartless, concentrating on her barbecue and dry food.

After all, he was born as a beggar, and he was hungry and afraid. For Jessica, the world is big, the host is the biggest, and the food is second.

Just when the atmosphere between the two sides was about to stiffen to the point of freezing, a woman in a white dress suddenly appeared around the corner.

The sudden appearance of the man frightened everyone to their feet, and their weapons were unsheathed, as if they were facing a great enemy.

But then they found out that the woman in the white dress was translucent.

"It's a ghost." Kelissa patted her soft chest.

The woman in the white dress was in very good shape, but her face was blurred, as if a mosaic was attached to her face.

Of course, Rooney and others don't know what Mosaic is, but that doesn't prevent them from having a similar concept.

At first glance, the dress of the woman in the white dress looked very reciprocal, but when she got closer, she could see that there were extremely gorgeous patterns hidden on her white dress.

And her skin was very white, white like jade.

At first glance, she is an extremely noble woman.

But this is the sewer, and in the past two days, Rooney and they have also figured out that the 'ghosts' in the city are living according to the previous 'trajectory'.

Why did such a noble person come to the sewers hundreds of years ago?

The woman in the white dress walked awkwardly past the three of them, walking very slowly, as if she were taking a walk.

Jessica stood up, "I think I should follow her and see what's going on." ”

"Aren't you afraid of getting into more trouble?" The middle-aged mercenary asked.

Jessica grinned, "It won't be worse than it is now, anyway." ”

As she spoke, she swallowed the roast in a few bites and followed behind.

Rooney and Kelissa quickly followed.

The three mercenaries hesitated for a moment, then followed.

They followed the woman in the white dress, walking up and down the sewers, and finally saw the woman press the end of the sewer, and an official road appeared in front of her, and she walked down gracefully.

The illusion vanished, and there was still a dead end ahead.

Jessica quickly found the mechanism that the woman had pressed.

The middle-aged mercenary shouted, "Don't move, it won't be good if you trigger some dangerous trap again." ”

Jessica smiled, revealing two cute little canine teeth, and pressed them without hesitation.
