Chapter 79 The diary must be kept well so that no one can see it casually
Chapter 79: Keep your diary well and don’t let anyone see it.
After a small encounter, everyone re-evaluated their respective situations: a few shields were damaged, the person was a little dazed from the fall, but everything else was fine.
Geralt turned on his witcher senses and scanned the room. Since there was a magic mechanism, there must be something wrong with this room.
Suddenly, the witcher's gaze turned behind the statue. In his field of vision, there was a hazy light attached to the wall there.
He walked over, raised his hand and struck [Alder's Seal]!
Immediately afterwards, the entire wall collapsed, and there was indeed a cave behind it.
Everyone stepped forward to observe, and saw another simple and simple passage behind the wall. It seemed that the style was completely different from the ancient elf-style buildings they had seen before.
Obviously, the builder of this passage built his own secret laboratory based on this ruins. The gold and silver outside were even placed deliberately, just to hide the real treasure inside.
Only now have they truly seen the tip of the iceberg of Thomas Moreu's secret laboratory.
Following the tunnel, the group quickly reached the end. They saw a huge stone ball two people high embedded in the corner ahead, with a pair of broken bones sandwiched between the stone ball and the wall.
"Someone seems to have escaped the trap."
The Sword Attendant's face shone with excitement. After the battle with the Water Ghost, he seemed to have developed a strong interest in alchemical bombs. Although he said that this method was harmful to the enemy, he actually tried every means to do so.
Find situations where you can blast.
Lann slapped Swader on the head and scolded him angrily: "We are on the edge of an underground canyon. Who knows whether a large-scale explosion will trigger a chain reaction such as a landslide. Now without me
Don’t explode according to the order!”
At this time, there are no traces of the elven palace ruins around, and it has turned into the simple architectural style of the traditional research warlock.
What really sticks in my mind are the tedious maze decryption and escape room procedures. For example, the one in front of me embarrassed Lann for more than half an hour.
Geralt pointed at the wall in front of him. There was a small recessed brick "wall" inside.
Geralt pointed to a small section of rope tied to a pillar on the edge of the canyon and said: "These tomb robbers entered through a different entrance than us. They slid over from the other side along the rope and established a small stronghold here.
.”
I only need to cast simple magic to open the lock, but ordinary thieves will face two challenges: first, they must notice four stones and deduce the functions of the stones, and then they must try to press the stones...
Geralt pointed in front of him: "And the purpose of building a temporary camp here is for this. This is a door."
If it weren't for the prompts from the demon hunter's senses, no normal person would think it was a door.
Then, regardless of the attendant who was rubbing his head and nodding in agreement, Lan took out Geralt's parchment and scanned the surrounding environment.
[Unreadable handwriting]"
Lann said to Geralt: "Then it's easy now. Follow these tomb robbers wherever they go, and you will definitely find the secret laboratory."
The name of the owner of this diary has already been revealed - Thomas Moreu!
The druid stepped forward to observe it seriously and commented: "It is indeed an engineering architectural style hundreds of years ago. It should be right here."
Geralt stepped forward to search the corpse and found a piece of parchment, which was surprisingly well preserved.
He once thought he had to go to the other side of the canyon to find the laboratory, instead of opening the damn door in front of him!
Lan put his head and looked into the passage. There seemed to be a few broken bones and pieces of cloth in the darkness. This stone ball seemed to have achieved great results and crushed many people.
Obviously, the stone ball rolled over from the other side of the passage and just hit the tomb robber against the wall.
There are some traces of construction on both sides of the canyon, and there are also the remains of a small bridge on each side. Obviously, the two sides could have communicated with each other in the past.
There are some traces of human life on the ground, including food remains that have almost merged with the dust, braziers and torches that cannot be lit, and temporary construction fortifications that are completely inconsistent with the surrounding architectural styles, etc.
This is the scene he experienced in the game in his previous life. His memory may be vague about how many monsters he encountered and how many treasures he found.
With Geralt's witcher senses present, everyone followed the tomb robber's escape direction and searched in the opposite direction, and soon arrived at the edge of a huge underground canyon.
Lan took the parchment and began to read the content:
"…Since suspicious people began to appear outside my laboratory, I had to take more security measures. I thought they were just ordinary criminals looking for valuable things to steal, and had no interest in my research, but
It’s better to be cautious.”
Swade asked: "Then how do we get in? How about stacking the remaining bombs together and blowing them up?"
The rock walls on both sides were simply carved out with bold techniques. The road was so crowded that it was difficult for two people to pass side by side. If you were not careful, you might end up in the canyon below.
The druid sighed: "It's just a group of tomb robbers, and they really found Professor Moru's magic laboratory. It's a pity that they got in but not out."
After all, no matter how strong the monster is, as long as it has a health bar, it can always be cut off with one knife in the game; no matter how precious the treasure is, it can only be converted into coins and turned into a string of numbers in the backpack. These are simply not worth occupying Lan's precious treasures.
memory.
The parchment seemed to be an experimental diary. The large sections of writing and ink on it had become blurred and unreadable due to time and improper preservation. However, the only remaining text on it was also very valuable to Lann and the others.
[Unreadable handwriting]
In addition, I decided to follow the advice of an old friend of engineers and use simple mechanical devices to protect the safety of the laboratory. In one of the rooms in the corridor leading to the laboratory, I installed a mechanism that can lock and unlock the door by pressing the wall.
Use the four protruding stones at the top to operate.
"Isn't this written in Professor Moru's diary?" Lann unfolded the parchment so that everyone could see "One of the rooms in the corridor of the laboratory has a mechanism that can lock and unlock the door.
, operated by pressing four protruding stones high on the wall."
Lan looked around again, and everyone followed his gaze.
Geralt had never thought that the environment described in the diary was here. After he finally connected the diary contents with the surrounding environment and consciously looked for "protruding stones", there were four places on the rock wall where he was hunting monsters.
A long red light flashed in people's senses.
"Found it!"
