Chapter 276: The trouble left by the goddess (1)
Chapter 276: Troubles left by the goddess (Part 1)
To be precise, the entrance to the underground palace was not discovered, but was penetrated by Tris.
This was originally a room for disposing of garbage. Of course, the goddess would not make any garbage, but the goddess' believers, even those who are over the twelve level, still have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate.
The one that disposes garbage in the temple is a very small room, with three-dimensional magic circles in it. You only need to throw the garbage in and you can decompose it into the finest particles and classify it.
When Salin came to this room, he saw the magic circle destroyed by Cuisi. Before he could get angry, Cuisi immediately said: "Sir, this magic circle almost killed me!"
Salin pondered, no one has come to this palace for many years, at least for more than seven thousand years, right? The magic array without anyone taking care of can continue to operate, that is, it has a core like a dragon crystal as its power. There are still five remaining three-dimensional magic arrays, one of which was pierced by Cui Si, and can still be repaired through calculations.
The big hole on the ground was more than ten meters deep and the diameter was nearly two meters. Salin only glanced at it and knew that it was penetrated by Cuis' long whip. The weapon he refined for him saved his life.
Because this magic array is exactly sixteen meters thick underground, it has a completely three-dimensional structure. If it is not completely penetrated, Cui Si will be decomposed into particles like the garbage that was disposable by the magic array before.
The Endless Mountain is 100,800 miles high, and a cave that is sixteen meters thick is nothing. Salin sensed the palace under this cave and found that the area below was not small. Even if his perception spreads to a distance of one mile, he could not touch the boundary.
"Tues, you're doing well, who's going to go down first?" Salin said, but his eyes looked at Rex.
"I'll go." Byrne didn't go around the corner, he was the most suitable candidate.
Sliding down the hole, Byrne made no sound, and his feet landed on the ground, then he threw out a transparent sphere. The sphere bounced on the ground a few times, stuck to a pillar in the distance, and lit up.
"It's okay, come down." Byrne shouted easily. If there was danger here, he could not find it, and the four people above would definitely not be able to find it. The assassin's abilities were also inadequate to magicians.
The four people on the upper level slid down one after another, and Rex released the lighting technique to see clearly what was happening here.
This is a storage room, with tall cabinets, boxes, and various ancient furniture piled up in the corner. In another corner, Salin saw several broken puppets. The height of these puppets is about six meters and has four arms.
Although these puppets looked exquisite, Salin knew that human alchemy skills were hundreds of times better than they are now, and these puppets must have been very rough back then. These puppets that made rough are basically used to transport goods, not for combat.
Large ports and cities like transit stations will have such puppets. Many goods are transported by manpower, which wastes too much time. This kind of puppet, which is six meters high, can carry about 20,000 kilograms of items at a time. Twenty thousand kilograms is the limit of most magic vehicles.
The port of Metatlin City is creating such a puppet. It seems that this is a warehouse, except for the larger area, there is no special place.
Salin and others found a lot of things on the upper floor, but there were no warehouses on the upper floor, all storage rooms, and all the supplies were small.
"Tues, I find you are lucky." Salin patted Tues on the shoulder and praised him.
Cuisi smiled bitterly and said, "Anyway, I have a life with you now, and I can't complete the goddess' contract..."
"I know, I will work hard, don't give up." Salin rarely communicated with this demon. In the past, he was giving orders.
Tris' lips moved, but he still didn't say anything to Salin. From the time he wrote down his name on the stone tablet, he was already really planning to follow Salin. Unlike ordinary demons, he had reached the limit of demon growth. He had the power close to the great demons and had tens of thousands of years of life. So he had a more desire than other demons, that is, to continue to grow.
If he doesn't fight for a while, after Salin's death, he will at most return to the demon plane and continue to be a thug for a big demon.
Rex frowned and said, "Are we going separately or..."
"It's better to be together." Shika suddenly inserted, pointing to the door and said, "There seems to be danger below."
As soon as Shika finished speaking, Byrne had already flashed and came to the door. His body was pressed against the wall. In the eyes of Salin and others, Byrne suddenly disappeared, as if he had turned into a pattern on the wall, without any trace.
Shika looked at it and found that although the space in the warehouse was large, it was still not suitable for flying. She took out her stick and held it in her hand, facing the door.
Rex unfolded a scroll, released a wall of earth, blocking Sika. Cuisi pulled out a long whip, looked at Salin, and quietly slipped towards the left side of the wall. Then, Cuisi's figure also disappeared. This time Salin could see clearly that Cuisi directly changed into part of the wall, connected to the end of the wall that was ten meters wide.
Demons who know illusions are much more useful than Eva who only knows how to charge, especially for such small-scale battles, which require more wisdom.
Bang!
Something hit the door, making a huge sound.
Salin thought for a while, released a water-patterned shield for Shika, flew up in the air, covering his body with clouds and mist.
Bang!
A gap broke out on the gate and then collapsed. Salin was shocked to see that behind the gate was a group of short creatures, holding a metal warhammer in his hand, and looked over fiercely.
"Dwarf?"
"It's the dwarf..." Rex swallowed his saliva, feeling uneasy. These little monsters did look like dwarfs. Whether it was the color of the skin, the weapons in his hands, or the ugly facial features, they were exactly the same as those recorded in the map. The only difference was that it was said that the dwarfs were not wearing armor, and these dwarfs were covered with metal armor all over their bodies. Although they were extremely crude, the metals were made of orangutan iron as the main material.
Orangutan iron is not star iron, but a red metal. The biggest advantage of this metal is that it has infinite ductility, can defend against blunt weapon attacks, and can absorb powerful impact. When used to make armor, you only need to add a thin layer of armor to defend against strong bows and hard crossbows.
The dwarf magic has infinite power, but it is not moving fast and is easily shot by archers. If you wear this kind of armor, it is really unwise to fight the dwarf magic in a narrow area.
It's really bad!
Salin looked at the dwarf demons who were pouring into the warehouse and began to prepare magic in depression. Just as Salin was actively preparing magic, several dwarf demons had already rushed to the opposite side of the earth wall and waved their hammers and smashed them towards the earth wall.
Well!
Even Rex was a little surprised. She was worried that there was a huge monster rushing over from behind the door, so she released a wall of earth. But she didn't expect that a group of dwarf demons would enter the warehouse. But the IQ of these dwarf demons had problems. They could obviously bypass the ten-meter-wide earth wall, but they wanted to break the earth wall on the front.
Although earth walls are low-level magic, they have the ability to repair themselves. As long as the elements are not consumed completely, the earth wall cannot be pushed down unless they are broken with one blow. Earth-based magic is sometimes more resilient than water-based magic.
The dwarf attacked the earth wall desperately, and no one could find Byrne hiding behind them. Salin did not relax. Byrne's attack was indeed powerful, but the number of dwarfs appeared outside the gate. Byrne would definitely not be able to kill them completely.
A dozen dwarfs who attacked the earth wall found that their metal warhammers hit the earth wall, and the earth wall almost instantly returned to their original appearance. Even if they had low IQ, they knew that the earth wall was strange.
Immediately, more than a dozen dwarfs rushed towards the puppets in the corner. In their opinion, the earth walls were also enemies and must be destroyed. These dwarfs took out the magic cores and embedded them on the broken puppets.
Salin was surprised to see that the rusty puppets jumped up immediately, grabbed the warhammer in the hand of the dwarf, and rushed towards the earth wall.
The earth wall was only more than two meters high. Under the command of the dwarf demon, the puppets did not attack the Sika behind them, but instead waved the war hammer and smashed the earth wall.
The dwarf demon has appeared for a minute, but none of them went around the earth wall to attack, all competing with the lifeless earth wall. Several puppets who transport goods may not be able to fight, but their strength is too great. The metal warhammer with four arms attacks like a storm, and the low-level magic was finally destroyed. The earth wall collapsed with a bang, revealing a five-meter-wide gap.
Then, something that made Salin laugh and cry again happened. Three puppets made a cracking sound, and black smoke came out from the damaged mechanical body. Then, the eyes of the three puppets changed from white to red, and suddenly waved the metal warhammer wildly and smashed the dwarf beside them.
The sound of banging was endless, and the puppets with infinite power smashed the dwarf demons one by one and hit the walls. The walls of the palace were covered with black steel rock as the main material. The dwarf demon was covered with metal armor and hit the steel rock, and the sound made echoed in the warehouse.
These puppets will actually change into combat mode, but they will not distinguish between enemies and us.
The number of dwarf demons has exceeded 200 and is still increasing. They screamed and rushed towards the three out-of-control puppets. At this time, Salin saw that the trick was coming. After the dwarf demons who were smashed by the puppets hit the stone wall, they did not suffer much damage. They just rolled on the ground and then turned around and sat up.
These dwarfs were shaking and a little dizzy. The armor made of orangutan iron has extremely strong ability to absorb attacks, but their skills are too poor to completely alleviate the powerful impact caused by impact.
Even so, these dwarfs are very troublesome, because the armor only has skin on the face. If you want to kill these dwarfs, the best way is to attack their faces. However, the dwarfs have long arms and huge power. When they swing their warhammers, it is difficult to get close to their front.
