Time was running out and without further ado, Iron Wolf quickly gathered his team and headed towards the depths of the castle. The terrain here had long been figured out by the men of the Son of Ramis. After arriving at the back of the castle, they found that the grass and trees here grew very deformed, and it seemed that they had been contaminated by the energy leaked after the crash of the Saint's Cry.
The Ithilien family also took strict precautions here and built three checkpoints. Looking at the strictness of these three checkpoints, you can imagine that it is extremely difficult to pass through these three checkpoints to enter the ruins by abnormal means. It is estimated that countless spies died under these checkpoints! It is no wonder that the Ithilien family has been entrenched here for hundreds of years and has been able to keep the core secret of the family until it was revealed in recent years.
However, although the checkpoints were still there at this time, there was no one guarding them, and it had truly become an empty shell, which made people sigh in vain. After passing three checkpoints, they saw the true appearance of the ruins. After hundreds of years of wind, rain, and landslides, from the outside it looked like it had nothing to do with the crashed Saint's Horn.
After the third level, the Ithilien family has begun to build a temple-like building. After entering the entrance, you can immediately see that the wall of the passage in front has a light black metal texture and has very clear traces of human intervention. Obviously, this is the official beginning of the Saint's Call. Walking forward, you will come to a spacious hall. In front of the hall there is an open silver portal with a faint light rippling inside, which looks quite similar to a plane channel.
The son of Ramis had already sent people to guard here. Their goal was to make sure that no one came out, and also to determine the time for opening and closing the entrances and exits. They would immediately salute when they saw the Iron Wolf.
The action plan had been drawn up and rehearsed in advance. The first to enter were a paladin named Allen and Su Zhanxi. Naturally, they activated the Holy Light Shield and the Mind Shield to create an output environment for their teammates.
The next to enter are Mie and Tielang. The former is responsible for clearing the field. As a powerful awakened ranger: Gun God, Tielang will naturally play to his advantage in single combat and go directly to kill the summoner.
Because Du Yuqi's main purpose was to handle logistics and summon Jet to deal with the reindeer goblins, he was arranged to enter last. As for Meimei, it was an extra that Du Yuqi strongly requested to bring, so of course he followed him.
After careful observation, Du Yuqi discovered that every time a person entered the silver portal, the faint blue light rippling above it became less, and when it was his turn to enter, the light was so thin that it was almost invisible. Obviously, when the light was completely annihilated, this silver portal would lose its effectiveness as a passageway.
When Du Yuqi stepped into the door, his eyes went dark first, then he felt dizzy, and then he felt grounded. Before his vision could recover, he could smell a pungent smell of gunpowder, and then the smell of gunpowder was mixed with a very pungent smell, like the smell of blood, soil, and freshly mowed lawn.
Du Yuqi's vision only recovered at this time, and he found himself in a metal hall. The hall was very empty, with a large number of twisted metal chairs and broken tables leaning against the walls. It was obvious that this place had been cleaned up by the Tree Summoner's people, deliberately leaving no place for entrants to hide. The hall should have been dark, but several flares had been dropped, so the light was still good.
There were a large number of red and black broken leaves and branches of plants on the metal ground. They felt soft when stepped on, and there were large pools of dark green liquid splashing on the walls and the ground. In addition, there were an astonishing number of torn remains of summoned creatures scattered all over the place.
At this time, Xi was closing his eyes and catching his breath. The golden chain on his wrist was jingling and swaying, while the Paladin Allen had already begun to release enhanced BUFFs such as "Slow Healing". The awakened warrior "Mie" was half-kneeling on the ground, looking a little weak. It should be that he directly used the awakening skill to clear the field with one blow. Tielang went to chase the fleeing enemy.
The remaining people, led by Kevin and Mali, were besieging the remaining fish that had been caught, two Louises and an Elf King Igabella. At this time, the situation was under control, and Du Yuqi was too lazy to take action, with the main purpose of preserving his strength.
At this time, he was the last one to enter. As soon as he came in and looked around, his eyes lit up and he clapped his hands happily:
"Wow! This is indeed the Saint's Call. Look at this decorative emblem, it has obvious dragon features. Because the captain of the Saint's Call, Ruth Grabrien, is a descendant of the dragon clan, he will unconsciously use the dragon clan's symbols in these aspects!"
Then she found a blueprint from the dimensional ring, took out an exaggerated magnifying glass and observed the broken and yellowed blueprint, muttering to herself:
"According to the records, the place we are entering now... seems to be a cargo warehouse. Hey, why are they all going that way? Something seems to be wrong?"
As soon as Mei Mei finished speaking, a loud explosion was heard in the distance, making it difficult for people to even stand. Then a scorching air wave came from a distance, rushing out from the passage in front with a bang. Du Yuqi hurriedly pulled Mei Mei to the side, but the heavy steel garbage piled on the side were blown to pieces, which showed how powerful the air wave was!
At this time, Kevin and Mali's faces changed drastically at the same time, and they said anxiously:
"Oh no! This is the direction the boss is heading to chase the enemy! Everyone, hurry up and come with me to rescue them!"
However, shortly after the scorching explosion subsided, Tielang's tall and thin figure appeared at the entrance of the passage. He looked quite embarrassed, with residual blood on the corners of his mouth. His walking posture was a little awkward, and his face was gloomy.
In response to Kevin and Mali's inquiries, Tielang snorted coldly:
"I encountered assassins from the Ithilien family. They set a trap and wanted to use the elves' sacrifice to plot against me and detonate the explosive device nearby. However, I figured it out. The three bastards were smashed to pieces. You must be careful next time. We still have a lot of time, so it's best to move forward step by step."
Although Tielang said it lightly, Du Yuqi could see that he must have suffered a great loss and might have even used some life-saving tricks.
Because it can be seen from the degree of damage of the equipment he is wearing. You know, Tielang is wearing a +11 high-reinforcement suit, which is already in tatters. What's more, Tielang is an awakened strongman, and his profession is naturally dexterous and agile, and his mobility is stronger than anyone else in the team!
Of course Du Yuqi would not reveal this matter, but kept it in mind.
At this time, another mechanic who followed had summoned out three modified G1 Coronas. This flying machine, which was only the size of a camera, could fly freely in the air, passing through many places that normal people could not reach, and accurately draw relevant route maps. Its flying speed was also quite good, making it the best tool for reconnaissance.
As Corona explored, the mechanic began to quickly draw a map, but his exploration was soon blocked. The three G1 Coronas were destroyed one after another, and even the culprit for the destruction was not found.
Tielang took the partial map drawn by the mechanic and found that after walking a hundred meters along the passage heading west, he would come to a hall with many screens and seats. Although most of them were completely shattered, it looked like a core control room.
According to the normal layout, this control room must be located in the center of the spacecraft. In this way, if there is any emergency, members scattered throughout the spacecraft can gather here conveniently. So Tielang waved his hand and asked everyone to head here.
Facing Tielang's order, Du Yuqi had an ominous premonition in his heart, because the locations of the three destroyed Coronas seemed a little too coincidental. Problems occurred right after they had detected that hall. There was a faint sense of conspiracy in this.
