Scene 204 The ‘Lighthouse’ in the Dark

After entering the underground from the damaged corner of the ruins, what appeared in front of Brando was a huge underground world. Thin and long strips of corridors connected one after another material warehouses, hiding caves and combat readiness fortresses. This was obviously this The defense line of the underground city on the surface. He had seen such defense lines in the Laonte Mountain Fortress of the Cruz people and the elven underground ruins, but they were far from perfect as the one in front of him.

The four walls of the corridor are made of the hardest rock, and the fine lattice patterns on them extend all the way to the deepest underground. This style of architecture is incompatible with Warnd's aesthetics for several eras. It seems to be the legacy of a prehistoric civilization that slept countless ages ago, and has a certain feeling that Brando feels familiar.

If the surrounding rocks were replaced with metal, Brando would almost think that he was walking in a huge underground research center. Aren't those lattice networks just pipes for transmitting energy? This near-future style combined with the heavy historical atmosphere of the eroded rocks gave people a sense of sacredness that almost made them worship. He had to sigh that the scene designer of the Amber Sword was indeed a world-class designer. Grandmaster.

Brando appreciates all this from a player's perspective, which is completely different from other people's feelings. Akane and Funya, who were closely following him on one side, had already opened their eyes wide and looked at everything around them in silence. They seemed to be holding their breath, deeply immersed in the shock of the ancient civilization. Although the Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles was slightly better, he looked at everything around him silently, and his gray eyes flashed with surprise from time to time.

Brando's free and easy attitude even surprised Ortales. It was the first time for her to see such well-preserved ruins of the Silver Civilization. It was as if the building had just been deserted. There were still artifacts from the previous era left in the ruins. breath. But Brando seemed to be used to all this. She found that his eyes were full of appreciation and familiarity at the same time, which was a look that was transcendent to other people.

In fact, this is indeed the case. There is a soul in Brando's body that is transcendent to this world. Coming to the ruins of this ancient civilization, others felt sacred, solemn and shocking, but Brando felt sincerely familiar, as if he were back home.

As if right in front, several players greeted him with a smile, "Hey, man, do you want to join us on the adventure?"

A memory-like smile appeared on Brando's lips. Yes, he would never return to Earth. But Warnd's world intertwined in dreams always reminds him of everything that has happened.

"Little guy, tell me seriously, are you from Eruin?" Otales suddenly asked at this time.

"Eh?" Brando came back to his senses in a daze,

Why did she ask that? Could it be that Ortales has discovered his true identity? Originally this seemed impossible, but Brando couldn't help but feel guilty: "Why do you ask that?"

"Look at the gap between you and them," Otales couldn't help but point angrily at Qian and Funya beside them. The two little girls were completely stunned: "How can ordinary people be like you? Is this so? Even if scholars have read similar descriptions in books, they should be admired when they see the entity, right? But Brando, you just appreciate it. The sense of superiority is like a host leading a guest to visit his luxurious villa. Tell me honestly, are you a descendant of Bai Yin?"

Otales's eyes flashed with suspicion and told Brando that she had already suspected it. But Brando couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't expect Otales to want to go up to this. What's going on! But he immediately shook his head: "Of course not. I am an Eruin with a family tree that can be traced, and my ancestors also gave birth to nobles."

"Does the nobility of Eruin mean anything to me? Poor!" The female guard knight behind the wind glared at him. Although Brando's words dispelled her doubts, it could be seen that she was not completely He gave up and replied: "But it doesn't matter even if you are a descendant of Baiyin, little one. The more powerful the successor, the more pleased I will be, big sister."

Brando smiled. Of course he wouldn't say that he didn't want to become a Silver People because he didn't want to be too different from Freya and Roman. He looked back at Qian, and the other people around him too. the same.

Pass through layers of defense facilities and gradually go deep underground. Under the deep rock formations, the transmission of sound has become extremely slow, and the temperature has increased a bit, but the surroundings have become silent. After a while, Brando heard the sound of dripping water coming from the distance. He estimated that in terms of depth, there were at least three lines of defense near the surface, which were built like a maze. Thanks to his experience, he could pass through there without wasting time.

After passing through the fortress system on the surface, the living area of ​​the underground city should be below. Underground cities are actually similar to surface cities, with residential areas, commercial areas, gathering places, temples, palaces, and huge drainage systems. He had seen this kind of city in the hometown of the Chongshan dwarves, and also knew that monsters contained in the underground drainage system would occasionally escape to the upper areas and become the target of players' missions.

However, where water exists for a long time in the underground city, apart from drainage systems, underground rivers and streams, and seepage ponds, the only ones left are auditoriums. The so-called auditorium is equivalent to a square on the surface. There are generally seepage pools and springs in the middle of the square. The auditorium connects the residential area and the commercial area, supplying domestic water to a considerable area nearby. Therefore, hearing the sound of dripping water here means that they are not far from the central area of ​​this underground city.

After walking in the dark for about a minute holding the luminous gem, the light in Brando's hand suddenly scattered in all directions. The surrounding low rock walls suddenly disappeared, and they walked into a wide underground space. The forward light shines on the ground, revealing a huge square paved with uneven stone slabs. In the middle is a spring. The spring water is still flowing slowly today, thousands of years later. However, the rock table surrounding the spring has been eroded and riddled with holes. The water overflowed the top and overflowed into the square, forming a large sunken and flooded area.

"It's the square! It's exactly what you said, Brother Brando!" Seeing this scene, Funya couldn't help but said in surprise.

Qian also looked at Brando with some admiration. In her opinion, although the Lord is young, he is a very knowledgeable scholar. Compared with other nobles who at this age are only jealous and indulge in sensuality, the lord can already talk to people like Gray Sword Master and Veronica on an equal footing and guide each other in terms of knowledge.

"Yes." Brando also nodded. He was also a little excited. Finding the auditorium meant that he was not far from the goal. Especially since this underground auditorium was so large, it must be connected to a palace or a temple. He raised his head and looked at the dense holes on the surrounding towering rock walls, hoping to find signs he was familiar with.

He first found the holy symbol of the temple. Warnd's past beliefs have basically remained unchanged from the present. Lord Martha has always protected the intelligent creatures on the earth. Although the appearance of the Holy Emblem has changed to some extent due to different aesthetics, everyone can distinguish the Virgin-like woman in the center of the Holy Emblem.

Soon, the group of people walked around the square. At this time, Brando's eyes suddenly lit up, "It's this way!" He discovered that the corridor leading to the palace was actually opposite the central axis of the square. The palace is the core of the underground city and the center of defense. If that fire may exist If it were in this underground city, the ancient Silver People would definitely place it in the center of the city.

The target of this dangerous group is close at hand, and even with Brando's knowledge, he can't help but become a little restless. Veronica and Mephistopheles only thought that this was a new place to protect, but Brando knew the true meaning of the existence of fire, so he could divide one-third of the land to the Gray Sword Saint without any scruples. To restore the country, it is absolutely impossible for him to give up the biggest secret here.

That was his greatest hope of saving Eruin.

He took a breath and couldn't help but walked up three steps at a time. But at this moment, the Gray Sword Saint Mephisto on the side suddenly grabbed him and faced a black shadow. Mephisto pulled out the giant sword behind him with a clang and struck at the black shadow. Only after hearing a loud noise, Brando saw clearly that the black shadow that was chopped away turned out to be a giant scythe coming straight from the ceiling. The giant scythe was flashing with strange light patterns, and it must have something. A powerful spell can hit you with just one hit, even a strong person with an elemental level can't get away with it. He couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. He was so excited that he forgot about the most basic thing like a trap.

Of course, based on his reaction, this thing would definitely not be able to hit him, but Mephisto's actions won his favor, which showed that the Gray Sword Master was indeed planning to stand in the same boat with him. He calmed down and nodded to Mephisto.

"Be careful." Gray Sword Saint said calmly.

"kindness."

After escaping the first trap, the road ahead was indeed full of thorns, but then it became Brando's performance alone. He was neither a nightingale nor a thief, and had no special ability to discover traps. But he has never eaten meat and has seen pigs run away. Brando’s experience as a level 130 warrior is so rich. What kind of dungeon has he not explored? What kind of trap have you never seen?

Not to mention the ruins of a silver civilization around level 60, he has also been to the ruins of the golden people. Relatively speaking, Valhalla is just more completely preserved, but those traps are nothing to him. So novel. You can tell how a certain trap works at a casual glance. He led a group of people through the underground corridors, just like taking a leisurely stroll on an outing.

Mephistopheles was not familiar with Brando, so he naturally thought that he was proficient in mechanical engineering. But this is completely different in the eyes of Qian and Funya. In their eyes, Brando (the eldest brother) has an additional halo. It’s just that Ortales couldn’t figure out how a young man could be proficient in everything, and it just didn’t make sense in terms of study time——

The underground palaces of the Silver Ancestors were distributed horizontally and vertically. They were not complicated or luxurious. The main body is still made of rocks, and the crystal grid pattern on the smooth ground extends into the darkness. However, the internal building space here is much taller and wider than the outside. In the center of the hall, you can also see the ten-meter-high dwarf hall. It takes several people to hug a square prism.

And the energy transmission networks are spreading like spider webs between these pillars, and there are signs of getting denser and denser. Suddenly, Brando's eyes extend forward with the light of the gems in his hands, and his vision Passing over about thirty pillars, the pillars formed a circle, and a huge 'lighthouse' appeared in the center.

That's right, Brando thought it should be a 'lighthouse' when he first saw it.

In the dark space, a huge pyramid stood quietly. However, at the top of the pyramid, floating a rather huge fusiform crystal, which was at least more than twenty meters high, and the widest part was almost the same as the height. The crystal sparkles with textures like water waves, and soft light shines through these ripples. Although it is extremely weak, it can still illuminate the area around the pyramid.

"This..." Everyone couldn't help being speechless when they saw this scene.
