Ronald went down the tunnel, and the closed environment made his footsteps bounce back and forth on the wall, thus becoming distorted, which made the atmosphere look particularly dull and empty.
Just like the previous observations.
This tunnel leading to the underground does not exist naturally underground in the island, but is developed by the caster of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting]. At this moment, Ronald, who was walking in it, could even see the tunnel remained around it.
construction traces.
The main body of the tunnel here may have been opened up by spells in one fell swoop.
But the details are also very attentive, and it seems to be done by patient and meticulous manpower.
Just go down like this.
Ronald soon came to the middle of the three underground structure.
When we walked here, the environment finally had a ruin that should look like.
Although it is impossible to have an exaggerated size of a large city or a modern capital, what appears before Ronald is finally an underground cavity of a town.
Through the analysis of the conditions of the broken buildings and the ground, we can vaguely distinguish the square that existed here and the remaining foundations of the building. Even to the left of the entire space, there is a relatively intact ruins left by the church.
Ronald has seen many church buildings in this world, so he recognizes his identity from the remains of other ruins at a glance.
As for the lighting problem in the dark.
It is impossible for everyone to have the ability to see things in the dark.
Therefore, in the four corners of the underground cavity, the artificially lit bonfires are burning. Under the influence of a certain degree of spell, the light caused by these flames when they burn is enough to bring light to the entire underground space.
“…”
"It's just like the fire underground, so I don't feel bored."
Ronald whispered, then stopped and stood at the entrance and looked left and right.
Although the two magicians of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] have just escaped here from above.
But because of their fear of Ronald, they handled their traces very well and could hardly see any clues.
Unless you spend a lot of time here to study it carefully.
Otherwise, in a short period of time, Ronald would have no way to discover the other party's trace immediately.
So, take a more destructive approach to force the other party out?
For Ronald, who had worked in related work, destruction of ancient ruins is unacceptable in any case.
So the final result.
Ronald could only close the tunnel behind him, then stepped into this huge cavity and began to look for traces of the enemy in the ruins of the city.
The performer of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] on the run is naturally very careful.
They knew they were not Ronald's opponents, so they chose to be concealed.
At this moment, the two of them took the initiative to suppress the magic fluctuations, and even reached a state of almost nothing. Even though Ronald had a strong sense of perception, he still could not detect the other party's existence when dealing with such an enemy.
Ronald walked alone in the empty and cold underground and immediately had the subtle illusion that he was coming to archaeology rather than chasing his enemies.
After a careful search, Ronald found nothing.
But he also came to the ruins of the church.
The island is called the remains of the church because in the distant past, it was a secret building subordinate to the church organization.
So this is definitely a very important place.
Thinking about this, Ronald walked directly into it from the main entrance.
The first thing he saw when he entered was the chapel buried in dust, with only the messy footprints under his feet, which proved that during this period, people from the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] had been entering and leaving here quite frequently during this period.
Seeing this, Ronald squatted on the ground and began to look at the traces on the dust.
These footprints are deep and shallow, and vary in size. Although it is difficult to identify more details, they do increase the possibility of enemies hiding here.
So Ronald nodded slightly, he stood up and walked behind the ruins of the church.
Bypass the chapel lobby and enter the rear corridor from the left.
Then, in a broken corridor with a zenith, Ronald stopped again, because in his perception, a faint magic fluctuation was flashing not far away in front of him.
This is not a trap, nor is it a trace of an enemy.
Because of the magical nature of this power, it is completely different from the two [Nine Ring Secret Meeting] casters that Ronald pursued, but it is very similar to the casters of the church he had contacted!
"Entertainment?"
"No one has managed it for hundreds of years, but it can still operate normally?"
Ronald carefully distinguished it, his expression a little surprised.
Not only was he interested in this magic that had not been worn out for hundreds of years, but he was also curious about another thing - [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] why he didn't do anything about this thing.
You should know that the people of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] have occupied the remains for quite some time.
Even though this magic barrier is quite hidden, it is impossible to avoid the other party's search.
So why don't they destroy it and go into it to check it out?
With such doubts, Ronald moved over and came to the specific position where he sensed the magic power.
Here, an oval door like a stone cocoon stands on the edge of the corridor.
A very clean open space was swept out in front of him. Obviously, the caster of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] also noticed this and even stayed back here for a long time.
Dongdong-
Ronald walked forward curiously, stretched out his finger and tapped gently on the door.
With his movements, a dark golden luster appeared above the gate.
Although the spell on this stone door did not fight back against the invaders, Ronald could also feel an indestructible and heavy feeling through the touch of the fingers.
"It's interesting."
Ronald smiled at the corner of his mouth, immediately clenched his fist, and threw it up with all his strength.
boom!
In order not to have too much impact on the ruins, Ronald deliberately restrained some of his strength.
The result is that the door protected by the dark golden light remained unmoved.
It seemed as if Ronald's punch was just a spoiled child when he was playing, and it had no effect at all.
Ronald is even more curious now.
Ronald must be clear about how powerful this blow is in his hand.
Even if you act with the mentality of not wanting to destroy the remains, this is definitely not something that can be stopped by just a casual appearance.
Ronald thought of a possibility.
Perhaps it is because this barrier is hard enough that the talents of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] have not been able to enter?
You should know that these guys have "Theory of the Nature of Things" in their hands.
And there are also holders of [Kelion Shield].
If even the magic to decompose all things in the world and the indestructible two-guard shield cannot destroy this barrier.
So, protected by such a powerful spell and existed here after years.
What kind of secret is hidden?
Ronald, who was curious, had no intention of suppressing his thoughts at all.
He controlled the smile at the corner of his mouth, then adjusted his magic, and gently reached out to the door.
