Chapter 202: The Raymond Family’s Treasure Place (Please subscribe and vote)

The ruins of Lion Castle.

Stepping into the ruined city gate, I saw a thick steel fence lying on the ground, with broken chains and winches next to it.

It can be imagined that in the past, it took several knights turning the capstan together to open the city gate.

The city wall next to it was two meters thick, enough for even a carriage to pass through, but now most of it has collapsed.

Only some ruins remain.

The ground was covered with rubble and large charred pits, and one could vaguely see the horrific scene of falling meteorites.

The stone castle was enveloped in flames and thick smoke. Many parts were even charred, with glass fragments appearing, which shows how high the temperature was.

Luo Yi walked among the ruins, as if he could see its former grandeur and also witness its current decline.

This fortress, which witnessed the rise and growth of the Raymond family, has been shrouded in magical blessings for countless years.

Before this "man-made disaster" happened, who would have imagined that this castle would be destroyed?

But after it happened, how many people sighed that it was actually destroyed.

On the side, Iron Knight Phil Zeke stepped closer to Loy and said, "My Zeke family has served the Raymond family for a full three hundred and thirty-four years.

I still remember the first time my father took me into this castle.

At that time, I was only ten years old, only ten years old, walking under the thick city wall, as if facing an invincible giant.

"I never thought that I would see the fall of a giant in my lifetime!"

His voice was heavy and subdued, and even a powerful being like a fourth-order natural disaster seemed dazed and melancholy.

Flame Sword Saint Otto smiled and took a few steps forward: "I'm different from you!"

“We swift swordsmen weren’t taken seriously before!

It was the Habsburg Empire that introduced the combination of agile swordsmen and magical firearms that led to the establishment of the swordsman training camp by the Raymond family."

"I was in the first batch of candidates, and I was only thirteen years old when I was selected!"

“Because of my lean build and quick reflexes, I went from being a farmer to a swordsman apprentice.

At that time, I never thought that I would grow to the fourth level.

At that time, I never imagined that I would spend most of my life in this castle."

At this point, his tone became even lower: "I never thought about it. It was just an ordinary outing. When I came back, this place was gone."

"My wife and children also perished in this man-made disaster!"

A deep hatred flashed in Otto's eyes.

Oliveira was the only one who didn't speak, but the solemnity and sadness revealed in his expression could not be concealed.

Among the four, perhaps only Roy, the current head of the Raymond family, did not feel much nostalgia for the castle.

So, he asked an extremely serious question: "What kind of power do you think can destroy this castle?"

The Iron Knight and the Flame Sword Saint couldn't help but exchange glances. Then, they spoke almost in unison: "Fifth-order Legend!"

Otto continued, "After the three of us met, we discussed this matter. We all agreed that only a fifth-level legend could achieve this!"

The Iron Knight continued, "There might be more than one!"

"Why do you say that?"

"The magic that can destroy the entire castle must be a forbidden fire spell, a mass meteorite spell.

Therefore, a legendary fire mage is inevitable.

In addition, two fourth-level natural disasters died here."

"As they are both at the fourth level, it is easy to defeat them, but it is impossible to completely stop them.

The most likely possibility is that someone stronger has taken action!"

"Five-level legends, and there are more than two of them. This really respects the Raymond family."

Oliveira then asked, "Master, do you have any plans to rebuild the castle?"

Luo Yi shook his head without hesitation: "No, at least not now!!!"

In Luo Yi's opinion, if magical machinery develops on a large scale in the future, this purely defensive castle will not have much value.

As more and more powerful magic cannons are set up, even with powerful protective magic, they are just targets.

Of course, this is not the only reason why he is unwilling to rebuild.

Turning his head, Luo Yi looked at the three people in front of him and said, "Don't you think this is a shame for the Raymond family?"

"It was a blatant shame. An unknown enemy destroyed the most important core of the family and nearly severed the bloodline of the Lion King."

“So, why rebuild?”

“Keep him so that I, and every Raymond after me, will know this history.

Unless one day, or in a certain generation, the family's blood feud is avenged, then we will be qualified to rebuild this fortress."

"Okay, let's stop talking. We're not here today to reminisce about the past."

The Iron Knight seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Are you talking about treasure?"

"You know?"

Otto answered, “There have always been rumors that the Raymond family has a secret treasure vault, but no one has ever seen it.

Could it be here?"

"That's impossible! If they were here, after the castle was destroyed, those people would definitely have had time to clean up the battlefield.

They, couldn't have not noticed?"

“Of course they could find out, but they can’t get in, and even if they do, they can’t get out.

So, even if they destroyed the castle, they couldn’t take the treasure.”

"If you want to open this treasure, only I am qualified, and I have to add this!"

Luo Yi stretched out his hand, and the holy artifact, the Proverbs Ring, appeared, emitting a dazzling rainbow light.

In response to the brilliance, strong magical fluctuations came from deep underground.

Luo Yi looked at Otto and the other two and said, "In a moment, you must follow my instructions and don't try to show off."

"According to ancient records, even a fifth-level legend could fall in that place."

The three of them looked at each other, and the Iron Knight said sullenly, "How about we not go?"

Luo Yi said: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't you want to take a look?"

Otto smiled and said, "Of course I do. Are you sure we can go?"

"It doesn't matter. There are a lot of good things in there. But without me, the Proverbs Ring, and the bloodline of the Lion King, there's really no way in, and no way out!"

"Then go and have a look!"

"In that case, let's go!"

As he said this, a door appeared in front of Luo Yi. It was a door held open by magic, and he was the first to walk closer.

Then he added, "Hold your breath when you go in. Don't speak until I say something."

"good!"

Before he finished speaking, Luo Yi had already taken the first step forward and disappeared into the void portal.

Oliveira followed without any hesitation, and the remaining two looked at each other and walked in.

I saw that the space was distorted, as if I had walked into a flush toilet, turning and turning. I didn't know how long it took before I finally stood still.

This is an empty magic circle, surrounded by rock walls, with a kind of light blue moss growing on it, emitting fluorescent light.

At first glance, it looks like the wall is covered with cracks.

Looking at the air again, there were floating objects like catkins floating around, drifting around under the fluctuations of magic power.

Luo Yi looked around and reacted very quickly. With one step, he reached the wall.

He raised his hand again, and the Proverbs Ring was imprinted on a wall.

Rumble!

The stone door opened to both sides, with a dim light in the middle blocking it out. Luo Yi waved to everyone and took another step in.

The three Iron Knights also quickly stepped into the gray light curtain. They were all strong men and keenly felt the impact of the dark element.

It was as if they were isolated by something, and they were in another space, but surprisingly, there was only a small house inside.

The four of them were standing, feeling a little crowded, with magical rays of light pouring down from above their heads.

The light intertwined, just like daylight, and lasted for nearly three minutes, illuminating the four people completely.

Until the light dissipated, the passage on the other side opened again.

Luo Yi walked out, and the other three followed behind. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, we can talk now!"

Flame Sword Saint Otto narrowed his eyes, his expression solemn: "I just felt a fatal crisis. If I'm not mistaken, that place can kill me."

"What is that?"

Luo Yi replied: "As far as I know, it is a kind of poison and a kind of plankton called Dark Mist Worm."

"It's very tiny, like dust, and can enter the body through breathing, or, if it stays for a long time, it can also penetrate into the body through the pores."

“It contains toxins and is quite unfriendly to the human body. It can block nerve transmission in a very short period of time.

Therefore, even legends are not immune and will die!"

"As for the second one, that strong light is cleansing magic, which can kill the accompanying dark fog insects.

So, if you want to get out alive, you not only have to hold your breath, but you also have to react quickly."

"What about here?"

The Iron Knight pointed around again and asked, "What are these three passages?"

"There are three corridors leading in three directions. When you reach the end, you'll find three more. Choose one and continue. At the end, there are still three corridors..."

“So, if you walk along the corridor, you will never get out.

Therefore, this is also called the Endless Corridor."

"So how do we get there?"

"Just follow me!"

“…”

"This place is called the Stone Statue Group. Look at those stone statues. Just walk into their range and you can wake them up.

Then, chase him until he’s dead!

Of course, if you are strong enough and can destroy all the stone statues, then congratulations, the place where you are locked up will fall into the abyss and you will die a more miserable death."

"As for how to get out, you have to follow me."

"And this place, don't underestimate it because it looks like there's nothing there. In fact, there's a teleportation array underneath that connects to the abyss!

It can only be activated once, however, and even the Legends cannot escape while driving to their destination.

The first level of the abyss, the bloody battlefield!"

"If we can escape from that place and return to the Helka world, there will be nothing to say."

It has to be said that it is no exaggeration to describe this treasure trove as fraught with danger.

There are many methods, even asking what you hear!

Here, even the Raymond family were latecomers. The first to build it were the ancient Winged People.

The scale of the project and the astonishing means are really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Luo Yi saw detailed records in ancient books, and asked Deep Blue to simulate the environment and practiced it many times in his dreams.

Otherwise, he would never be as calm as he is now.

Just like this, after passing through five gates and defeating six generals, they finally reached their destination after walking for an hour.

A mottled stone door covered with patterns blocked the way ahead.

Luo Yi stepped forward, cut open his palms, pressed his blood-soaked hands on it, and then pulled them apart with a bang.

So, wherever you look, you will see a golden glow.

The Raymond family’s treasure trove has finally arrived!

I’m typing at the third update!
