Chapter 936 Under the Unknown Castle


Chapter 936 Under the Unknown Castle

In the deepest part of this unknown castle, what appeared in front of Lei Xiao and his party was an extremely dark dungeon corridor.

Lei Xiao noticed through the guiding light balls that Ariel continuously emitted, flying forward to dispel the darkness.

This damp dungeon corridor is quite spacious and can accommodate at least 20 fully armed soldiers moving side by side, with no end in sight.

On both sides of the corridor, there are individual cells separated by metal fences.

The heavily rusted metal railings reflected the mottled and old light under the light ball, causing an aura of vicissitudes of life and despair to rush towards them.

Sniffing the looming smell of blood and decay in the humid air, Lei Xiao looked around.

The surrounding cells were all empty. From time to time, a yellowed skeleton sitting on the ground, as well as some variegated torture instruments and torture racks could be seen.

"I didn't expect that the Phytolacca family, which looks so bright on the surface, could have such a dark and terrifying place."

Ariel's starry eyes moved, and she couldn't help but reveal a hint of solemnity as she murmured to herself.

"This is the dark side of nobility and power, and it can be considered a reasonable sight."

Lei Xiao's face was calm, and he nodded to indicate Huzhang and Hongye to explore the way at the front, while he and Ariel were in the middle, and at the end were Jiang Lei and Lian.

Although Lei Xiao and his party only have six people, the weight of the three fifth-level powerhouses cannot be measured by their numbers alone.

Even so, under Lei Xiao's signal, the group tightened their weapons without any carelessness.

Lei Xiao clearly understands that everything here is an unknown territory, and every step he takes may lead to death, so naturally he cannot relax at all.

After all, judging from the previous descriptions of Keen and others, as well as the ice arrow and wind blade trap just now, this place is indeed enough to bury a fifth-level strongman. The fifth-level intruder who left a lot of blood stains is the best. example.

"Lord, there is no breath of living people here. It seems to have been abandoned for a long time."

Jiang Li, who was at the back of the team, concentrated for a moment and saluted Lei Xiao, stroking her chest and saying, "But there is a sense of danger in the air, just like an undercurrent surging under the calm water, making people feel murderous."< br>


As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Han Shui's joking voice rang out again, which undoubtedly showed that he was obviously using some means to monitor the group's actions.

"Haha, this is an abandoned dungeon. Although it has been running secretly for hundreds of years, interrogating one sinner after another for the Shangluc family, the head of this family is not willing to live in the same castle with the sinners. That only It will make me feel sick.”

There was a hint of playfulness in Han Shui's voice, and he said solemnly: "So the head of this family changed this dungeon with many mechanisms into a death trial ground. For decades, no one has ever left here alive, including Including the fifth-level powerhouse who covets my Shanglu family’s treasure.”

After Han Shui finished speaking, without any warning, the space around Lei Xiao suddenly twisted and torn apart, as if a pair of unstoppable transparent hands were about to close, trying to crush the group of people in their palms.

Seeing this, Jiang Li's white face exuding a mature charm froze, and the other side of time in her hand flashed with light, causing a light gray halo to surge out.

Wherever the light gray light reached, the invisible fatal hands disappeared immediately, as if they had never appeared before, causing the space to return to normal again.

"Using a space magic trap in front of a space magician is really overestimating one's capabilities."

Jiang Li snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face.

"Don't be careless, the other party is testing our strength."

Lei Xiao nodded to Jiang Li, then raised his voice, and said calmly to Han Shui: "Stop making noise there, like a buzzing fly, if you want to distract us with words If you don’t pay enough attention, you’re thinking too much.”

"Haha, you stupid and despicable guest, it's time to use your harsh words now."

Han Shui's voice became more and more playful, and he said disdainfully: "This is just the beginning. Believe me, you will be more and more surprised next time, and by then, it will be the time of your death!"

As Han Shui's words fell, everything came to an abrupt end.

Only the cautious and orderly footsteps of a group of people still echoed slowly in the dark dungeon with no end, ethereal and distant.

"Lord, what does Han Shui mean?"

The staff in Ariel's hand was shining brightly, and while controlling several shining light balls, floating in front and around, she whispered to Lei Xiao: "In addition to magic traps, are there any other weird things here?" ?”

"Haven't you discovered it yet? This dungeon is a bit too huge and obviously does not match the castle on the ground. It is more like a city dungeon than a castle dungeon."

Lei Xiao's eyes wandered, and finally fell on the lock of a rusty prison door, and nodded to Ariel.

Following Lei Xiao's gaze, Princess Leng Yan only belatedly noticed.

Although the size of the surrounding cells seemed normal, the door lock only reached his knees, and the result was self-evident.

"This is a size suitable only for half-length races such as dwarves or elves!"

Ariel looked suddenly enlightened and blurted out: "So these cells were not built by the Shangluc family themselves, but existed here a long time ago?"

"Yes, I'm afraid the Shanglu family built the family's castle on this underground ruins, just like the place where their ancestors slept."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said more solemnly: "In other words, the threats we face are not only the magic traps deployed by the Phytophthora family themselves, but also most likely those left by the original race."


"Manipulating the magic traps left by the original race? Is this possible?"

Ariel was stunned, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

"It is indeed difficult for ordinary strong people to do it, but for some fifth-level magisters who specialize in traps, it is not completely impossible."

Jiang Li took over the conversation and echoed: "After all, most magic traps are different from magic restrictions with a higher security level. In addition, due to their age and disrepair, it is reasonable for them to be manipulated and transformed."


After a pause, Jiang Li frowned and added: "For example, the space magic trap just now clearly smells of the dwarf magic trap. It is simple and violent, and it belongs to the type where great power can produce miracles."


"I didn't expect that the Shanglu family would be so well hidden. There is an ancient dwarven ruins under the family master's castle, and it has been transformed in this way. This is something that even the royal family doesn't know about."

Ariel took a deep breath slowly, her eyes full of sternness, and exclaimed: "This is really unexpected."

"Haha, silly little princess, did you just react now?"

Han Shui's playful voice sounded again: "Back then, in order to completely conquer this ancient ruins left by the dwarves, the merchants who had experienced hundreds of battles fought hard and suffered huge casualties."
< br>

"Due to the sharp decline in the number of strong men, it even alarmed His Majesty the King of Heroes for a time. Fortunately, the head of the family at that time stopped him in the name of slaying the dragon."

"After all, the first generation head of the Shanglu family is a genuine fifth-level powerhouse, and is the royal family's chief magic trap expert, so his strength goes without saying."

There was a bit more pride in Han Shui's voice, and he continued to describe the great achievements of his ancestors back then, as if Lei Xiao and others were already dead, and they were not worried that Lei Xiao and others would leak this.

"It is precisely because of the transformation of the first generation of family masters that our Shangluc family was able to use the magic traps left by the dwarves and even extend them to the ground."

"Then, after years of transformation by the successive heads of our Shanglu family and the top experts we hired, it finally reached this scale."

"In other words, the many magic traps left by this dwarf clan have all been handed over to the master of this family."

"You know, compared to the elves and other wise races, although the dwarves are not good at magic, their basic lifespan is more than five times that of the human race, and their magical technology and the number of top magicians are by no means comparable to that of the human race! ”

At this point, Han Shui began to laugh wildly again: "Do you understand now? You will definitely die this time!"

"So this is what you rely on?"

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, obviously not taking the other party's threat to heart.

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao's eyes moved and focused on the two fifth-level magic powerhouses under his command.

Needless to say, Hong Ye is tall and tall. As a dragon, she has been sleeping in Dragon Sealing City for more than six hundred years.

Although it is very impolite to ask the female dragon's age, according to her own estimation, Hong Ye is at least a thousand years old, and her experience is far beyond that of a human magician.

As a half-elf ancestor, Jiang Li is also over 500 years old. He has also lived with the elves who are good at using magic for a long time. Naturally, he is not an ordinary person.

In other words, the things that can make ordinary human magisters helpless do not pose any threat to the two powerful magicians under his command.

"Hanshui, if you rely on these dwarf magic traps, then just stretch your neck and wait for me to stand in front of you."

Lei Xiao withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "Don't use these childish tricks to embarrass yourself."

"What an extremely arrogant boy! He is just a despicable alien, and he actually dares to talk nonsense here!"

Han Shui snorted coldly, and magic particles suddenly surged out of thin air around Lei Xiao and his party.

This undoubtedly means that the other party has activated some kind of magic trap again.

However, this time, the magic particles only vibrated for a while, and then disappeared like deflated rubber balls, as if nothing had happened.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that the magic trap was ineffective, Han Shui's surprised voice immediately sounded in the dark dungeon corridor.

"Unfortunately, while you just introduced the great achievements of our ancestors, the magic traps around here have already been lifted."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, looked at Hong Ye and Jiang Lei who had just cleared the magic trap, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, Lei Xiao waved his hand forward, signaling to his subordinates to continue moving forward, while raising his voice and saying: "It seems that you don't completely control the dwarfs' magic trap, you can only activate part of it, otherwise you wouldn't be like this." Easily lifted.”

"Despicable aliens, don't get too proud too soon!"

Han Shui's voice was a little more angry, but also a little more playful and contemptuous: "If you think that the six hundred years of our Shanglu family's heritage is only to this extent, you are totally wrong. Wrong.”

"Arrogant and arrogant people, I might as well tell you that this is just an insignificant appetizer. The real show has not yet started!"

Han Shui's voice became more and more harsh, and he said coldly: "As the head of the Shanglu family, one of the three wealthy families in Lengyan, I will make you pay the price of contempt for this ancient family!"

"Make no mistake, it is not the Phytococcus family that I despise, but you personally."

Lei Xiao did not continue to talk quickly with the opponent, but ordered his subordinates to speed up the pace.

After mastering the rules of the dwarves' magic traps, Lei Xiao and his party encountered almost no obstacles. They moved forward in the darkness and humidity, and soon arrived at the end of the dungeon.

In the process, through the introductions of Hong Ye and Jiang Li, Lei Xiao learned more.

Originally, the magic traps of the dwarves were not so easy to disarm. Many of the traps were connected one by one, and it could be said that one move could affect the whole body.

Although it is not as magical as the wise races such as the elves, it can still be called a miraculous craftsmanship.

However, due to the forced transformation of the Phytolacca family, the magic traps that were originally combined fell apart. Not only were they greatly reduced in power, but they also became extremely fragile.

Even so, it can still be clearly seen through the splattered blood, broken ground, and scattered bones along the way.

These magic traps have indeed caused a lot of damage. Rather than saying this is a dungeon, it is more appropriate to call it a tomb.

"It is simply unimaginable how many strong men have died here in despair, but I will never be included."

Lei Xiao shrugged and nodded towards the prepared knotweed.

The latter understood immediately, and with the flash of several dense sword lights, the thick dungeon door fell apart and turned into pieces.

Although this gate seals the fifth-level magic restriction, it is not very clever. It has been lifted by Hong Ye and Jiang Li just now.

Before that, Hong Ye and Jiang Li successively dispelled several magic traps that created huge waves, otherwise the place would undoubtedly be flooded.

"I have to say that if an ordinary strong person comes here, it will indeed be like going through purgatory."

Lei Xiao sighed in his heart as he walked out of the gate of the dungeon ruins surrounded by his subordinates.

But the scene that Lei Xiao and his party faced next was beyond everyone's expectations. (End of chapter)
