I quickly picked it up and examined it closely.
The cane, which had been made of wood, had now turned a deep brown color.
However, when held in the hand, it has a very smooth and warm feel.
There are still some familiar patterns on it, which are different from the patterns on the spine before, but are more delicate.
However, the gaps on it still emitted a faint green light, which was in stark contrast to the ancient person from before.
The thought of him baring his teeth and claws at us just now, and even moving so fast that we couldn't keep up, made me feel a little distant.
Then I offered the item to the girl to look at, and she hesitated, wondering whether she should actually reach out and take it.
After all, she had just been burned terribly by that thing.
The girl quickly withdrew her fingertips as soon as they touched the cane.
"What happened? Did he burn you again?"
I quickly asked.
At this moment, the girl shook her head and told me that she was completely unaffected.
This made me even more hesitant. If she wasn't affected, why did the girl pull her hand back?
The girl slowly explained to me that this thing could very likely explode.
"Ah, an explosion?"
Without thinking, I immediately threw the thing on the ground. It fell to the ground with a crisp thud.
"Brother, I'm not sure either, but I feel like it foreshadows something ominous."
After all, when you first got the blue armor, it didn't seem to have any special effects. But don't you think it always looks a bit out of place to have it in your hand?
It had never been used before, but now it had become the backbone of this ancient person, and also a walking stick.
I think it's very likely that Blue Armor is behind this!
You say he can use this thing to turn into an ancient person, so why can't he turn it into an explosive device?
The girl's analysis was very logical and insightful, and I immediately felt a strong sense of agreement upon hearing it.
I took a closer look, and if this really is some kind of explosive device, we have no way to escape it in this sealed room.
The only thing we can do is avoid it as much as possible; there's absolutely nothing else we can do.
"Is it really going to explode?"
I muttered to myself, while the Thunder Strike Sword told me to just take it boldly, even if it really exploded, we weren't afraid!
I mentally countered his suggestion: if this thing really has the potential to explode, then we should just avoid touching it.
“Master, this doesn’t look like an explosion. I have no fuse and no energy fluctuations. I can see it very clearly.”
It's probably just an ordinary cane, and have you forgotten?
When I held the blue armor in my hand, it didn't produce any other effects!
The image of the lightning sword was also in my mind.
Seeing that I didn't speak, the lightning sword floated above the cane and gently swept the entire cane with an arc of electricity, but found nothing unusual.
"No problem, Master. This is just an ordinary cane, at most it looks a bit like the previous one, it's definitely not dangerous!"
I was still a little puzzled, so I just touched the cane lightly with my toe. There was no reaction, and it didn't get warm at all.
I bent down to pick it up, and I could feel that it was still a little warm.
If we see Blue Armor, we might actually be able to question him about it.
If Blue Armor really meant me no harm, then how did this thing come into contact with him?
This cane is indeed exactly the same as the one the blue-armored man was holding when we first met him!
"Yiyi...we'll go out now..."
"go out!"
Before I could finish speaking, the girl interrupted, and I knew that she also wanted to leave immediately.
If there had been a solution earlier, the girl probably wouldn't have had to wait until now.
Or rather, our initial plan was to exit directly from that mural.
After all, it seems that this is the only exit from this secret room.
If nothing works there, then we might really be at a loss.
But for now, this is the only thing we can try.
"Let's go, we've been stuck here long enough..."
The girl then started urging me, which puzzled me. It was then that I noticed she was covering her calf with one hand.
It turns out that the contract the girl was bound to was also being subtly strengthened.
No wonder she was so eager to get out; she must have a way to get rid of it once she gets to the manor.
But staying here now would be futile. My heart tightened, and I quickly turned and ran.
I was about to respond when I caught a glimpse of the ancient man's head lying on the ground.
Previously, he had already been chopped down by the lightning sword, leaving only half of his face.
His bluish-gray skin was already cracked in several places, and at this moment, the ancient man's shell twitched slightly.
The cracks on her face, even around her mouth, revealed the lines inside.
I was shocked and quickly pulled the girl back.
"Slash him a few more times with the lightning sword, don't give him a chance to get up!"
At this moment, Lei Jijian quickly turned around and glanced at me, but he shook his head at me and sent me a telepathic message.
"Master, don't you understand my technique?"
He's absolutely dead, he's as dead as can be!
Seeing that I didn't believe him, Lei Jijian added to me.
The ancient man's spine has been shattered into dust, and now only a natural, shrinking strength remains.
It's the same principle as a dead person convulsing; it's not threatening.
I kept staring at that half of the face, and the twitching slowly stopped.
A moment later, his face became completely stiff, and only then did I breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the concerns in my heart did not completely disappear.
This secret room contains so many mechanisms, and this ancient man is somehow connected to the blue-armored man's cane.
If Blue Armor has some backup plan, staying here will only make things more dangerous for us.
The girl was also a little anxious at this moment, but she still tugged at my clothes.
"Let's go, let's go to the cracks in the murals first!"
I gripped the remaining cane tightly, then touched the wrist guard on my hand.
Every time I touch it, I feel a warm current flowing through my body, which helps me recover.
I don't know if it's psychological, but the wristband gives me a pretty good overall feeling, so I don't have to worry about anything for now.
I pulled the girl along quickly toward the crack in the mural, and she hurried after me, clutching my clothes, her eyes filled with fear.
"Brother, is everything really alright?"
