Chapter 570 Blooming Flowers
The creations of dwarves are like this. They do not consider comfort, which is completely opposite to the elves.
Even in the eyes of the dwarves, riding a mine cart on an exciting line like a roller coaster and going through a few giant slaloms, and then starting mining somewhere is a relief from the boring life.
I really can’t figure out the thinking of these dwarves. They are obviously very afraid of heights and would be scared to death while riding on a horse, yet they actually did such a thrilling thing.
But there is one thing to say, the creations of the dwarves are indeed strong. Aldai and the others rode a mine cart on a roller coaster without safety belts, but there was no sign of damage to either the mine cart or the line itself, and they even arrived smoothly.
You know, this ruins must be several thousand years old at least, and it is incredibly strong.
Lying in the bed of the mine cart, they were covered in ashes, but the three of them had to wait in there for almost a quarter of an hour before they had the strength to climb out.
Then they saw the giant lamp mushroom lighting up this huge underground space that was as wide as the surface of the earth, the abyss into which no echo could be heard for a long time even if a stone was thrown, and the sigh of where to go.
This was definitely not the fourth floor where the three of them planned to go. Aldai took out Yueluo's notebook and checked it carefully before confirming that this was actually the fifth floor.
"This was originally a mine where the dwarves collected mithril. Look at the stone wall opposite this rift valley, and you can vaguely see bright silver reflections."
Compared to mithril, things like gems and gold are a bit lacking.
Mithril is the highest-end metal that all alchemists dream of. It has the best magical properties and is the top material for making magic items.
It is as light as a feather and as tough as dragon scales. It is usually sold by the gram and has a high price but no market.
As long as a little bit is added during forging, the performance of weapons and armor can be greatly enhanced. Even the princes and nobles rarely see mithril.
When Nemea heard this, he immediately became interested.
"It doesn't look too deep. Can you dig a little deeper?"
"It's useless to dig it out. The raw ore of mithril is not too rare. The problem is how to smelt mithril with higher purity."
This smelting technology is currently only possessed by dwarves, and only a very small number of dwarves. The steps are cumbersome and the smelting is extremely difficult.
Aldai pressed her temples, which were still sore, and said:
"Let's find a place to rest first. At least it's safe here for the time being, and we have a map in our hands so we know where to go."
In terms of time, it's not time to set up camp yet, but today we were bombarded with ghosts, marched through the dense rainforest, and were forced to ride a roller coaster without a seat belt. I was really tired.
It didn't take long for the three of them to find an excellent camp, which was an open space hanging above the underground Great Rift Valley. To get here, you had to walk in a circle on the path. It was a typical camp that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. No matter how many people come, as long as they guard the path, they will never get close.
Take out the magic lamp for lighting, lay out the bed rolls, and sprinkle on insect repellent.
After making preparations, the three of them sat down on the bedding, and Aldai finally had time to tidy up.
Riding the minecart all the way down, directly crossing the fourth floor and entering the fifth floor, this is good news, at least you can avoid continuing to tangle with the drow and wild bear mercenaries.
But the map Yue Luo gave only reached the fifth floor. It was difficult to tell how many floors there were below and where the Demon King's Ring was.
Judging from the style of the last time Aldai went to find the Demon King's Ring, the Demon King's Ring will definitely lead the followers of the Demon King God to come closer as long as they get close.
This is because the Ring of the Demon Lord hopes to return to the finger of the Demon Lord, and is originally one.
But it was already the second day since entering the ruins, and there was still no guidance from the Demon King's Ring. There were only two possibilities.
First, even on the fifth floor, it was still too far away from the Demon King's Ring, so far away that it couldn't sense any followers of the Demon King God approaching. Second, the Demon King's Ring is now in a state of being completely sealed, and this artifact has lost its ability to sense the Demon King's followers.
The former is easier to say, as long as you keep going down, you will always encounter it.
But if it’s the latter…
That would be troublesome.
You can use magic to locate the location of items, but the more special the object being located, the worse the positioning effect will be.
The Ring of the Demon King is this extremely special thing. It is not only a powerful magical item, but also an artifact. It is almost impossible to have a spell to accurately locate its location.
In addition, if it is in a completely sealed state, the seal itself will also avoid positioning and join forces. This is nonsense. Even Aldai and the others passing by the Demon King's Ring may not know that what they are looking for is nearby.
It was too easy to get the first three Demon King's Rings, which gave Aldai the illusion that the seals from the mythical age were just like that. It would only take a matter of minutes for her to find them using modern means.
Facts have proved that although she became a high-level mage at a young age, Sang Tai was obliged.
However, the good news is that although the map given by Yue Luo is not complete, it also marks the entrance from the fifth floor to the sixth floor.
In short, keep going down and see what happens.
After confirming the route, Aldai took out the two things that Yue Luo said as rewards before, and took advantage of her free time to appraise them.
Magic items are difficult for outsiders to see if no one tells you what functions they have and how to use them.
This requires the spell that mages can use to 'identify magic items'.
This spell can analyze all the information of a magic item, but the more powerful the magic item, the more time it takes, and it also has a lot to do with the level of the mage himself.
The ring, which looks like weaving from grass stalks, is called "Blooming Flowers". It allows the holder to use entanglement three times and light feather step three times a day. It also makes the holder immune to the effects of entanglement.
The value is not bad, it is an excellent magic item.
There is another small box. When you open it, you will see a wooden sculpture the size of a seal. Compared with the flowers, it is easier to figure out the use of this thing. Aldee figured it out after a little fiddling with it.
Nemea, who was making a fire to boil some hot water, heard a muffled sound behind him and quickly turned around, just in time to look into a huge eye.
"What is this!"
"A triceratops."
Nemea took several steps back, and then he saw clearly that a triceratops with dark green scales, three meters high and over six or seven meters long, suddenly appeared next to Aldai.
"The sculpture Yue Luo gave is a bit interesting. It allows people to obtain the Druid's animal companion ability, but the companion type is selected as a triceratops. Are any of you interested?"
Nemea swallowed and looked at the swaying triceratops. He probably couldn't afford to support it with his salary.
But Zola's eyes lit up when she saw it. She probably wanted to ride this thing and charge into the battlefield...
