"Well..."
Scratching his head, Chao Ri Dongsheng's gaze gradually fell on the top of his head in the direction Duan Qing was looking at: "There is an entrance above. I found it randomly from somewhere. I just heard it before. I heard some noises, and then saw a light in the corner, so I noticed the movement on your side."
"Then you jumped down directly?" Duan Qing asked with a headache, covering his head: "Didn't you figure out the situation first?"
"Rescuing people is like putting out fire, you know." The warrior carrying the giant ax gave Duan Qing a thumbs up: "There were so many monsters down there, and the little girl was under such a serious life threat, how could And do I have time to think?”
"Come on, you didn't even notice the existence of the Yata Bird just now." Duan Qing once again showed his scornful attitude: "I have to admire you for being able to blindly reach this level in a place like an underground maze. What a talent.”
"Bring out the map."
It seemed that he had finally recovered a little from his heavy injuries, and then he stretched out his hand towards Asahi Dongsheng: "Even if you don't remember the road yourself, you should remember it from your Adventurer's Manual."
"Ah! That's right!" As if he suddenly realized it just now, Asahi Dongsheng hit his fist on his other palm: "I still have a map! Why didn't I think of it before?"
"If you commit such embarrassing stupidity again, you won't be called a member of our Qingling Adventure Group in the future." Duan Qing, who was pressing his forehead, then cast his helpless eyes on the surface of the map in front of him: "Well...it seems to be close to the west If you compare it like this, your route will be more reasonable."
"Of course, after all, we rushed in from the underground water outlet in the west." Asahi Dongsheng patted his chest: "Even if we want to make a big fuss, we have to clear out the whole west side first... Well."
"What are your expressions?" He looked at the strange looks that Duan Qing and Yata Bird gave him, and the attitude that he had just wanted to be proud of was retracted: "Is there anything else that is embarrassing?" Problem?"
"...No, no." Lowering his head again, Duan Qing replied with a depressed look on his face: "It's just that a place that I couldn't find after all the hard work was suddenly broken into by a reckless man like you. When you come in, you will always feel a little frustrated."
"Is this place mysterious? Just run around and you'll get there." The muscular figure came a little closer. Asahi Dongsheng then set his sights on the side of the map Duan Qing was holding: "Well, I probably ran from here. When I came in, I met some strange people and strange monsters on the way, some of them even attacked me, and then I treated them as enemies...here."
"This is it." He pointed to a long and narrow passage leading to the location of several people, and gestured back and forth with his fingers on the north-south passage for a while: "My sense of direction is not very good, but... it should be from this Did you walk here? You passed a corner, and then you heard the sound coming from below——"
"Does your brother know this kind of terrain?"
After observing this passage for a while, Duan Qing took out his map for comparison and turned to look at the little girl aside: "There seems to be a connection between the two sides, but he may not know it."
"Even if he doesn't know, he will definitely be able to find it." Yata bird's answer is still full of determination and confidence: "Xiao Ba believes in big brother."
"Who is his eldest brother?" Looking at Duan Qing's helpless expression, Asahi Dongsheng pointed at the little girl's face: "Is he an acquaintance of yours?"
"Probably...it doesn't count." After shaking his head, Duan Qing then put away the adventurer's manual in his hand: "But no matter what, we have to find a way to go up first. We can't wait for others to jump together. Come down."
"It's called a treasure house, but there's nothing valuable..." Looking back at the empty hall and the dim scene full of monster corpses, Asahi Dongsheng curled his lips with some disdain: "What if? If that guy Goldman sees it, he'll probably complain about us returning without success."
"Before that, he will probably complain about you running around, and finally bumping into a dead rat." Duan Qing's voice slowly leaned against the wall as he left: "Come on. "
"Both of us are weak, so the job of going up is left to you."
He shook his head helplessly. Asahi Dongsheng, who had his hands on his hands, then walked behind Duan Qing and Yata birdiao. His vigorous shouts followed and sounded in the corner of the room. He started with two people. Lifting work in which individuals climb upward in tandem. Panting, he threw his body into the corner of the passage. The gray-robed magician jumped down again while watching the rising sun. Then he also took the time to recover his physical strength. The voice between the giant ax warrior and the Yata bird As time went by, it appeared more and more clearly in the narrow air around him: "...Hey! Can you please stop moving? Learn from the seriously injured person just now."
"Xiao, Xiaoba didn't move! Xiaoba just wanted to find a more comfortable position to sit down."
"Sit down in a more comfortable position? What do you think I am? I am a berserker from the Imperial Investigation Team. I am a man who can split a city gate in half with my bare hands. I am not your mount!"
"Hey, it's really boring. If it's the eldest brother, it doesn't matter how much Xiaoba and I sit on him... Ouch!"
There was a cry of pain from a girl in the darkness. It seemed that Yata Bird, who was about to climb to the top, was thrown to the ground. The petite and extremely light girl then stood up while rubbing her butt, and at the same time said with dissatisfaction. He stared at the figure of the giant ax warrior who climbed up next: "You, you! How dare you throw me! You have no manners at all!"
"You are the one who is rude, and you don't even look at who is carrying you up here." He held his hands at the entrance of the passage, and Chao Ri Dongsheng forced the other party's glare back with a look of contempt: "And don't throw it away. How did you and I get up? I carried you up, so I couldn’t use my hands hard."
"Then how did you bring him up just now?" The little girl rolled her eyes, and then accurately caught the question in the other party's words: "You can't even throw in a wounded person like your elder brother, right? You big talker!"
"Oh my God, what's wrong with this little girl? She just learns these useless words." She clapped her hands and waved her fist towards Ri Dongsheng: "Be careful, I'll beat you up."
"Big brother, big brother, your teammates are bullying me." The little girl hurriedly ran behind Duan Qing, and the pitiful little girl grabbed the gray magic robe in front of her: "Hurry up, help Xiaoba teach him a lesson. ah."
"You know we are teammates, how dare you say that?" With a ferocious look on his face, Asahi Dongsheng also looked in the direction of Duan Qing: "Where did you pick this wild child up? I suggest we get rid of it now Throw it back and see if she can come out alone."
"You, how could you do this!" Yata Bird's expression turned even more frightened: "Big brother, big brother, you wouldn't do this, right? We were just comrades in arms, we - big brother? "
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
It seemed that she finally discovered something unusual about Duan Qing, who had been silent all this time. She slowly stopped shaking her little hand. Chaori Dongsheng, who noticed something was wrong, then squatted in front of Duan Qing and followed him straight. Gou Gou's eyes turned back to his head: "What's wrong?"
"...There is indeed something very strange about it."
Duan Qing slowly raised his finger as he muttered to himself: "A place that claims to be a treasure house but is now being used as a warehouse, how can it be used as a warehouse?" Is there no way out?"
"what is that?"
Looking at the pillars hanging upside down from the ceiling of the hall that Duan Qing discovered, Asahi Dongsheng's eyes gradually began to enlarge: "Fire sprinkler tower? Or some kind of surreal decoration?"
"Now it seems that it's not that there is no access, but that the access has been moved to the top." Duan Qing, who did not answer Asahi Dongsheng's question, but still stared at the neat columns, replied in a low voice: "Why was it moved to the top? Why use such inconvenient means?"
"The answer is actually very simple, because this passage was 'passively' moved to the top."
The light in his eyes became brighter and brighter, and Duan Qing then made a flip gesture: "Before you came here, I had a bold guess, and now -"
"My guess is finally supported."
He stretched out one of his hands and condensed the radiance of the earth element around the direction of the ceilings. An irregular earth wall then appeared with a rumbling sound, and slowly condensed in the underground warehouse hall. in space. As if he understood what the other party meant, the body belonging to Asahi Dongsheng then jumped onto the earth walls that were still spilling earth. He stabilized the temporary pedal that was about to collapse under his own weight. He observed the appearance of those square pillars: "... They are square pillars. Although the carved patterns are very worn, they are very gorgeous. If you look at them from the other side, they look a bit like tables!"
"The table." Duan Qing sighed after hearing the unclear gaze of the Yata bird next to him: "Are there any magic restrictions on it?"
"Magic restriction? Wait a minute." After trying it at close range, Asahi Dongsheng sent his answer back remotely: "The bloodline does not meet the conditions and cannot be opened! This is a system prompt!"
"..."
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and Duan Qing began to look farther away along the square tables arranged in an orderly manner: "So that's it, so -"
"That's right!"
The sound of cracking earth and rocks echoed in his ears again. He hurriedly took out the adventurer's map that he had checked three times. Yatatiao next to him also put down the hand covering his eyes and turned around eagerly. The little head popped up: "What did it turn out to be? What exactly did you find?"
"Brothers Linyuan Duanshui, those..." He jumped back to the original place before the walls collapsed, and a serious expression appeared on Asahi Dongsheng's face: "It is indeed very similar to the place we have been to. Like, but—"
"But if all of this is consistent, the situation will become more complicated and confusing." Duan Qing said this on behalf of the other party. At this time, Duan Qing's eyes were arranging back and forth around the underground passage terrain that had been recorded on the map in his hand: "Where is your adventurer's manual? Take it out quickly?"
"Haven't you already seen it once? Why do you want to read it again?"
"This is not what I want to see." Taking a deep breath, Duan Qing interrupted the other party's movements without raising his head: "What I want to compare is the map of the empire. Your page should still be there. Bar."
"Of course, after all, we are all members of the Empire." Wiping the tip of his nose, Chao Ri Dongsheng quickly moved his big hands: "It's not here, it's not here...ah, you found it, this place, right?"
"...That's right."
His eyes kept comparing the maps on both sides, and the look in Duan Qing's eyes became more energetic: "This is really a big discovery."
"Even if the functions, decorations and uses have undergone huge changes, the terrain cannot be changed." Also aware of the similarities between the two, Asahi Dongsheng's breathing seemed to become a little faster: "But the biggest problem Still exist."
"Why?"
The eyes of the two men met each other for a while, and each of them noticed the deep doubts in the other's eyes, until the quiet atmosphere began to become solemn, and the Yata bird on the side dragged Duan Qingbu. When the little hands in the robe began to gradually tighten, one of them made his next voice: "Okay, it seems we need to investigate further."
"With these things as a guide, at least we know where to go next, right?"
"That's right."
The sound of running began to echo from the depths of the passage, and along with it, Duan Qing and others began to rush inside: "Proving that the connection between the two is not the final point, the final point is why it happened. If we can find out the reason for this kind of strange thing, we may be able to understand the source of tonight's series of events."
"Speaking of which, what on earth did you do in the city? I haven't—"
"They're here!"
The conversation between them was interrupted by a sudden loud shout. At the same time, several shadowy figures appeared vaguely on the other side of the passage. The leader, a man who looked like a large shield warrior, also put away his body. He stopped his running movements and rushed forward with a fighting attitude: "The number of people has actually increased... Humph!"
"It doesn't matter, you can't run away this time."
