You can imagine how a person feels in a quiet environment. Artoris held on to Gawain's sleeve with one hand, guessing that it was already late at night. In a pile of human bones, Artolis was not sleepy at all.

"By the way, why doesn't Gawain get up?" Artolis muttered, the streamer shadow in her hand flashed with a faint fluorescence, and Artolis, who had no fire, was using the brilliance of the weapon to illuminate it. Although the light is so unbearable, it is better than nothing.

Artoris touched the pendant hanging on her chest. The pendant looked crystal clear in the dark environment. From her birth to now, this necklace has never left her body. The old leader told her that it was tied around his neck when he found himself. The old group leader said that maybe this was left to her by her parents.

Artoris looked at the necklace, closed her eyes, and tried to imagine what her parents looked like. In the picture, a figure appeared in front of Artolis, but the picture was very hazy and the figure could not be seen at all. Suddenly the man said: "Weier..."

"Artolis... Artolis..." Artolis opened her eyes suddenly, only to find that her body was lying on the ground in a weird posture. Artoris looked at the person who woke her up sleepily and said, "What's wrong with Gawain?"

After saying that, Artolis stretched her body. Maybe it was because she slept in a bad posture at night, but she felt sore all over her body at the moment. The vision in the cave was still pitch black. Gawain waved his hand, and the Green Lotus Pure Fire instantly ignited all the combustibles on the rock wall, and the entire cave became bright in an instant.

"There is no visible light inside the cave. If I guessed correctly, it should be the afternoon of the next day." Gawain said.

Artoris discovered that with Gawain's breakthrough, the Green Lotus Pure Fire became more and more powerful. Recalling Tris's words, Artolis repeated to Gawain what Tris said last night.

Gawain scratched his head and said: "I did feel that something entered my brain before. In this case, it should be the cornerstone talent." After saying that, Gawain closed his eyes and opened his eyes suddenly the next moment. Opening, Gawain suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"What is the skill?" Artoris couldn't help but become curious when she saw Gawain's expression.

"You will know later." Gawain said with a smile.

"What?" Artolis stamped her foot. When did this guy learn to tell the truth? Forget it, she will know her abilities sooner or later anyway. The current situation is to continue exploring the cave. Artoris discovered another door hidden on the side while Gawain was sleeping.

At this time, Artoris also learned to be cautious. The two of them hid on both sides of the door, using their swords and bows to push the door open. The next moment, a row of arrows flew out from behind the door and hit the stone pillars nearby. The stone pillar was penetrated instantly. It can be imagined that if it were shot on a person, the consequences would be disastrous.

After passing through the gate, the road afterwards is pretty smooth, but there will be some monsters along the way. However, these monsters are no longer skeleton monsters, but undead warriors wearing black armor. They are also stronger than skeleton monsters, generally above level 45, but not more than level two.

Artoris handed the bone chain to Gawain. Unexpectedly, Gawain looked at it and put it on without saying a word. Perhaps it’s because she understands that Artoris has high requirements for the appearance of items. Moreover, the properties of this bracelet are also quite good, especially it has a significant effect on dealing with the undead.

"What happened to your level? Why did it suddenly reach level 61?" Artolis looked at Gawain and said. In fact, this is what Atoris is most concerned about. Shouldn't level 49 be level 50 after breaking through the second level? Why is it more than ten levels? Ask Tris, Tris won't answer, so you can only ask Gawain himself.

Gawain thought for a while and said as he walked: "In fact, as Tris said, my level has been stuck at level 49 for a while. It is probably because I did not break through in time, and the overflowing spiritual experience has been accumulated in There."

"That is to say, with this sudden breakthrough, the accumulated spiritual experience will burst out, allowing you to level up quickly." Artoris suddenly woke up, this must be the case!

In this way, Gawain's strength became stronger, but on the contrary, the gap between himself and him became wider and wider. This aroused Artoris's desire to become stronger, surpassing Gawain. Artoris raised her sword and bow and slashed at a lone undead warrior in front of her. Gawain spread his hands and followed.

She didn’t know where this cave led, but Artolis had a feeling that it was almost the end. The cave felt wider and wider as you walked in from the beginning. Under the light of the Qinglian Jinghuo fire, you could see the whole situation at the bottom of the cave at a glance. After killing various undead monsters along the way, the two came to a gate.

Different from the previous door, this is really a door. The door dozens of meters high is gleaming and looks very stylish. Gawain wanted to step forward and push the door open, but after two experiences, Artolis hid far away. Gawain took a deep breath and suddenly pushed the door open. The next moment, his body quickly swung back to avoid the danger of the mechanism behind the door.

However, when the door was opened, nothing happened. Artolis walked out from behind the wall and saw the scene behind the door at a glance. Different from the previous caves, the space behind the door is unusually wide. It feels ten times larger than the space where the bone spirit was fought before. The two stepped into the door, and the next moment the door suddenly closed automatically. Gawain hurriedly turned around and pushed the closed door, but it didn't move at all.

"It seems we are trapped here." Gawain knocked on the door and said to Artolis.

"Not necessarily." Gawain turned around, only to see Artolis staring ahead blankly. What was in front of her?

Under the light of the fire, the two of them could clearly see everything in the space. After the two took a deep breath, Artoris covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound.

Anyone who has heard pirate stories knows that after pirates plunder treasures from various places, they will bury the treasures on a hidden island or in a cave, and then extract them when the time is right to live a happy life. However, the problem of dividing the treasure is very difficult. Every pirate wants to get more treasure, so there is a tragic phenomenon of pirates killing each other for the treasure.

What the two of them saw was a tragic scene with bones chopped by knives all over the ground. A corpse with its skull split in half was surrounded by the remains of treasures that had been taken away and emptied. Obviously, after they killed each other, one or several people finally survived and took away the treasure buried here.

This place is far from the sea. To be precise, it is deep inland. It seems unreliable to say that it is a pirate. "It should be a local thief." Artolis said as she touched the clothes on the ground that were torn by the winds of time.
