Chapter 543: hidden magic mechanism
Next, under the leadership of Lei Xiao.
The travel-stained group of people walked through the grassland among the ancient broken walls in the forest, and soon came to the entrance of the passage that was penetrated by the red night before.
However, because the entrance to the passage was too long, Lei Xiao only sent Hong Ye to infiltrate to open up the original entrance of the Sword Tomb and the forging room.
After all, before this, Lei Xiao and his party did not confirm the real location of the entrance because of the blocking of the Dimensional Storm Portal.
"Is this the ruins of the royal capital of the Kingdom of Loren?"
On the other side, Fang Hai, who came here for the first time, had a solemn look on his old face, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "My ancestors lived and worked here thousands of years ago..."
"It must have been a very prosperous city back then."
Looking at the broken and mottled pillars not far away, and the horse heraldry patterns everywhere, Burt, who was older than Fang Hai, sighed: "This powerful country that was once known as the country of knights, finally Its really embarrassing to have turned into this appearance.
"Although there has never been more than one reason for all this, the lack of strength is the most direct fuse."
At this moment, Lei Xiao walked over slowly, and said calmly, "Taking history as a mirror, all we can do is to keep getting stronger."
Speaking of this, Lei Xiao glanced over the subordinates in front of him with sharp eyes, and continued: "I hope that one day, others will be able to judge me like this. The only one who can defeat half of my army is my other half. "
"Obey, my subordinates will do their best to go through fire and water for the lord, and will do whatever it takes!"
Hearing the sound, all the subordinates bowed in unison and said in unison.
"Okay, let's take a look around first."
With a slight nod, Lei Xiao took his own steps surrounded by his subordinates.
In this way, Lei Xiao noticed after some inspection in the forest ruins.
Because it was almost burned to the ground a thousand years ago, and because the time is too long.
Therefore, most of the remaining broken walls and ruins have been covered by intricate vines and soil, and apart from the scorched traces that can be seen everywhere on it, there is no trace of a treasure chest at all.
"It's no wonder. After all, none of the opponents who captured here could find the secret treasure of the Kingdom of Loren. How can this be something that can be found casually?"
Realizing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but shook his head helplessly.
Next, when Lei Xiao was thinking about whether to bring the wind chime with treasure hunting talent, or Su Ru to come here to have a try.
Not far away, with the sound of soil collapsing, as the fiery red magic wings flapped, Hong Ye's slender figure reappeared on the ground.
"My lord, my subordinates have opened up the road connecting the lost forge."
Appearing in front of Lei Xiao, Hong Ye slightly bowed and reported.
"Then let's go down and have a look."
Slightly nodding, Lei Xiao said to the expectant old blacksmith, "Mr. Fang Hai, it seems that you will soon be able to see the place where your ancestors once worked."
"My subordinates are very grateful to the lord!"
Fang Hai's old face was full of excitement, and he nodded repeatedly.
You know, thousands of years ago, that was the most glorious time for the Qianduan family he belonged to.
Not only was the ancestor at that time the chief forging master of the Kingdom of Loren, but also a powerful fifth-order powerhouse, and the family was also the most skilled forging family in the Kingdom of Loren!
At that time, the magical weapons forged by the ancestors were almost comparable to the weapons of the dwarves. They were very popular with the Loren royal family and nobles, and they were famous for a while!
Thinking of this with excitement, Fang Hai's old face couldn't help becoming gloomy again.
Since then, just like the destroyed Kingdom of Loren, his family has lost its former glory.
In the end, after thousands of years, it has gradually declined and become a little-known third-rate forging family.
With a heavy sigh, Fang Hai's wrinkled old face became excited again, and he involuntarily looked at Lei Xiao who was at the side.
However, it was the appearance of this young lord that made him, an old blacksmith whose family had fallen, rekindle his hope of revitalizing his family!
You know, this is a dream that he has never dared to dream of in his entire life!
"Without the presence of the lord, the strength of this old man is only at the beginning of the third-order level, and there is no huge amount of money to collect those expensive forging materials, and then devote himself to forging."
At this time, Fang Hai closely followed Lei Xiao's progress.
While secretly sighing in his heart: "The most important thing is, if the lord did not accidentally discover this lost forge of the Kingdom of Loren, how could this old man have the opportunity to touch the traces of the ancestors?"
Just as the excited Fang Hai was thinking to himself.
A group of people had already passed through the underground passage that Hong Ye had just opened up, and came to the entrance of the Lost Forge again.
Standing in the entrance hall, under the reflection of the dim light crystals inlaid on the surrounding mottled walls.
Whether it's the cracked wall surface, the ancient war wall carvings engraved, or the dark and deep overall environment, people can't help but feel awe-inspiring.
"Is this the place where the old man's ancestors used to work?"
Caressing the moist and exquisite wall sculptures scattered with cracks, Fang Hai couldn't help muttering to himself.
"The more shocking thing is still to come, let's continue."
By the way, the old blacksmith nodded slightly, and Lei Xiao took his own steps again.
After passing through the L-shaped passage of the relic hall, when the eyes of the group suddenly opened up again.
A sea of swords has caught everyone's eyes.
I saw that in the vast underground space in front of me, except for a narrow passage in the middle, there was a narrow passage for people to walk.
In other places, all kinds of long swords, large and small, of different shapes are inserted crookedly with the tip of the sword downwards. Under the light of the faint light spar on the surrounding walls, they are so densely packed that they can hardly be seen. the end.
"here it is?!"
Seeing such a spectacular scene, Fang Hai's old face was suddenly filled with shock, and he froze on the spot.
At the same time, Nan Xing Nanyue, who also came here for the first time, also showed the same expression.
"There must be a story behind each of these swords."
Looking at the shocking scene in front of him, Lei Xiao slightly nodded and said: "As for why there are so many long swords here, I am afraid that only people back then know the reason."
Speaking of this, Lei Xiao said while taking a step, "Okay, let's move on."
Hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates couldn't help but nodded thoughtfully, and hurriedly followed.
Next, move forward all the way in this lost sword mound area full of long swords.
After walking for about seven or eight minutes, after turning another L-shaped passage, everything in front of the group suddenly became clear again.
This time, what appeared in front of everyone was naturally the ancient forging room that had been lost for thousands of years.
Under the light of the dim light crystals inlaid on the surrounding walls.
I saw that this vast space was no less than the area of the Sword Tomb just now, and it was divided into several semi-enclosed compartments of different sizes.
In each compartment, there is a magic melting pot as tall as a person.
You can also see some conventional blacksmith tools such as quenching pools, anvils, sledgehammers, small hammers, pliers and bellows around, which can be described as everything.
And the messy scene everywhere undoubtedly showed that the blacksmiths here left in a hurry.
"It really is a breathtaking forging place..."
Seeing this, Fang Hai's old face was full of reverence, with an awe-inspiring look.
"Come with me, Mr. Fang Hai."
Nodding to the elderly blacksmith beside him, Lei Xiao walked at the front of the team again.
After a while, a group of people have arrived in front of the largest forging room.
This place is located in the center of the forging area. A ray of bright sunlight shines through the passage opened before the red night, making this place the brightest place around.
Looking at the beam of light that came directly in front of him and the floating dust reflected, Lei Xiao nodded to the old blacksmith and said, "Mr. Fang Hai, at that time, I found the magic furnace left by your ancestors here."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao waved his hand casually, and a huge all-metal melting furnace as tall as a person appeared in its original position.
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao immediately said, "Now, I will officially hand over this magic furnace to you. Being in such a special place should be very memorable for you."
"My subordinates are very grateful to the lord!"
Looking at the familiar family crest above the metal melting furnace with magic streamer, Fang Hai was already so excited that he couldn't help himself. In addition to being excited, he lowered his head deeply to Lei Xiao.
"You're welcome, this can be regarded as returning to the original owner."
Leaning down to help the old blacksmith in front of him, Lei Xiao said with a smile.
Seeing this scene, the other subordinates also showed expressions of relief, and became happy.
For a blacksmith, it is obviously an unforgettable thing for a blacksmith to be able to rent the forge where he used to work and get the magic furnace of his ancestors.
However, Fang Hai, whose old face was full of excitement, had just put the magic furnace into the storage ring.
The ground of the entire forging room suddenly trembled violently for no reason.
This sudden change made the expressions of all the subordinates involuntarily startled, and they surrounded Lei Xiao in the center of the team.
All of a sudden, on the palms of the subordinates, a handful of shining weapons suddenly appeared, which was particularly eye-catching in the slightly dim forging room.
At the same time, waves of extremely powerful aura erupted from the subordinates, stirring waves of energy in the air one after another.
The earth trembled, accompanied by the muffled sound of "rumbling".
The ground of this forging room began to sag inwards slowly, forming a secret passage leading deeper underground.
After a while, when the trembling subsided, everything calmed down again.
Hong Ye's crisp voice immediately reached Lei Xiao's ears: "My lord, it seems that a special magic mechanism was automatically activated just now, and that's why this scene appeared."
After a pause, Hong Ye added: "Even the subordinates have not discovered any clues about this hidden magic mechanism before, and the setting is extremely mysterious."
"Oh? Interesting."
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lei Xiao is no stranger to magic organs.
Hong Ye had already demonstrated superb deciphering skills when she was in the Lost Temple of the Titans.
There are two ways to open this magic mechanism hidden in the dark.
The first is to directly forcibly decipher it like Hong Ye did before.
The second is that it will be activated automatically only when certain preset special conditions are met. This is also the normal way to open the magic mechanism.
The current situation obviously belongs to the second category.
"That is to say, because a certain special condition is met, does this hidden magic mechanism start to operate automatically?"
Looking at the deep underground stair passage in front of him, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and continued to think.
"Before this, when I came here for the first time, this magic mechanism didn't activate automatically, which means I didn't meet the activation conditions.
And this time, the reason for the current situation undoubtedly means that I have met certain activation conditions. "
At this time, Lei Xiao's eyes began to wander back and forth between Fang Hai, Nan Xing, and Nan Yue, and finally fell on the old blacksmith Fang Hai.
"The only difference between these two times is that there are three more subordinates, and this is the place where Fang Hai's ancestors worked, so the activation conditions for this hidden magic ~ naturally It goes without saying."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao smiled slightly, and said to the elderly blacksmith who was still a little stunned: "Mr. Fang Hai, it seems that agreeing to your request is indeed a correct choice."
"My lord, what do you mean... the subordinate is the special condition for activating this hidden magic mechanism?"
On the other side, Fang Hai's old face showed a look of sudden realization, and he realized later.
"That's right, this is the place where your ancestors once worked. The answer is obviously very clear."
Nodding to the elderly blacksmith, Lei Xiao immediately responded: "If I'm not wrong, what activates this place is the blood of the Qianduan family that flows through you."
"It turned out to be like this..."
Nodding thoughtfully, Fang Hai couldn't help showing a look of anticipation on his old face, and muttered to himself: "It seems that the old man rented this underground secret room first, and the secret that has been hidden for thousands of years will be released immediately." Its time to see the light of day.
