As the heavy metal door slowly opened, the first thing that caught Lei Xiao's eyes was a spacious and simple foyer, which was also brightly lit with magic lights.
Reflected by the brilliant ball of light, one can see that the four walls of the foyer are all engraved with larger and more exquisite war sculptures, and on both sides of the passage in the middle of the foyer, there are two rows of knight busts as tall as one person.
The neat arrangement was like a guard of honor, seeming to welcome the arrival of a group of people.
"To be more precise, we are welcoming the arrival of this descendant of the royal family."
Lei Xiao nodded to Sarah, who was standing respectfully beside him, and then they took steps to explore together.
While moving forward, Lei Xiao noticed.
The subordinates surrounding him have already demonstrated their abilities and begun to eliminate possible threats and traps around them.
The two people walking at the front were Huzhang and Hongye, who were carefully investigating possible physical and magical traps.
Then came Garth, Erza, Xiaoya and Lina, who had been promoted to the fourth level of powerhouses, and were carefully investigating possible alchemy puppets, illusion traps, and undead traps.
Needless to say, the middle position is naturally occupied by Lei Xiao himself, Ariel, and Sarah.
At the rear of the team were Jiang Li, Lian, Ye Cang, Fang Hai and Chao Yan.
The most excited person in the team, besides Sarah, who is the last descendant of the royal family, is Erza, who is also an archaeologist.
You know, this is the ruins of the capital city of Loren, which has been destroyed for thousands of years. Although it cannot be compared with the land of gods, it obviously also has extremely important archaeological value and exploration significance!
Of course, for Lei Xiao, who was now in a life-and-death situation, there were only two things he cared about, which were what kind of secret treasures were hidden here and how much they could improve the overall strength of the territory.
With great anticipation, Lei Xiao and his subordinates quickly passed through the initial entrance hall and headed towards the depths of the treasure place.
At the end of the foyer, there is a quaint corridor extending downward.
This ancient corridor is also made of stone bricks.
The first half of the cloister is still engraved with exquisite knight wall sculptures, which are as breathtaking as a long unfolded scroll.
In the second half, it is completely bare, and some wall sculptures are even only partially completed, making the knight on it look lonely and lonely.
"Unfinished wall sculpture? It seems that the Kingdom of Loren at that time was indeed on the verge of despair."
Lei Xiao looked at the wall sculptures that were only half-cut, but had deep gorges, and seemed to hear the last battle cry and cry of the ruined dynasty.
The group walked through the dust and cobwebs and walked straight through this corridor engraved with history, and everything in front of them suddenly became clear again.
What appeared in front of Lei Xiao this time was a vast underground space.
This seems to be a natural underground cave with an extremely wide area and almost no end as far as the eye can see.
But this is not the most important thing, what is more eye-catching is.
Although there is no magic light ball shining directly here, it is still shining with brilliant golden light, exuding an intoxicating brilliance everywhere.
In the huge space, several hills of gold coins were piled up, mixed with all kinds of precious jewelry and crystal gems, making the whole scene quite spectacular.
"There are so many golden dragons."
Seeing this scene, Lina, who had been looking around, the green leaves above her head trembled, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "There must be at least twenty or thirty million, right?"
"I'm afraid there's more to it than that."
Ariel nodded thoughtfully, blinked her starry eyes and said: "Although the jewelry and gemstones mixed in the golden dragon are just ordinary decorations, they all look like rare fine products, and their overall value will never be the same."
Lower than the golden dragon seen on the surface."
"A golden dragon with a total value of around 50 million? It's a big gain, and it can just make up for the empty treasury in various places."
There was no trace of emotion on Lei Xiao's face, and he began to walk towards the shining area behind these conventional wealth.
For Lei Xiao, who controls the entire area, these inexhaustible wealth in the eyes of others naturally have no appeal.
With the gift of Lei Xiao, the weapons and equipment of each of his main subordinates, as well as the standing potions and magic scrolls, are easily comparable to this huge wealth.
After all, the fifth-level equipment of the Zhenguo level is not an item that can be easily exchanged for a golden dragon.
It is worth mentioning that gold dragons, silver dragons, and copper dragons, as the common currencies of human nations, have been circulating in the world since the blank era.
It was established under the supervision of the Temple of Light, the Mercenary Guild, and the Alchemist Guild, three detached neutral institutions spread across the human nations, and combined with the power centers of the human nations.
After three thousand years, although times have changed, the financial system has continued perfectly because the three neutral forces have never changed and their influence has not diminished.
Seeing Lei Xiao continue to move forward, Sarah, who had been following Lei Xiao, followed him without hesitation.
Although she was amazed by this huge wealth, the Lord saved her life three times and pulled her back from the line of life and death three times.
Compared with such a profound kindness, these external things are simply nothing to her.
After passing the golden area, what came into Lei Xiao's eyes was the equipment area that shimmered with splendor.
These large quantities of weapons and armor are neatly arranged on equipment display racks, extending to the depths of the underground space.
Moreover, each equipment display rack is covered with a translucent protective barrier, which is quite similar to what was seen in the Bright Elf Dungeon before.
"Lord, the weapons and armor here are all well preserved, almost indistinguishable from brand new ones!"
After checking the nearby display racks, Fang Hai came to Lei Xiao and reported: "According to a rough estimate by my subordinates, there are at least 800 pieces of third-level equipment, and more than 30 pieces of fourth-level equipment!"
"Finally I saw some real treasures."
After listening to Fang Hai's words, Lei Xiao nodded happily.
This undoubtedly means that your equipment arsenal will be filled to a whole new level again!
"Now I only have about 2,000 sets of fourth-level equipment in stock, and even more fifth-level equipment has been exhausted. In this way, I will be able to cope with the upcoming battle of life and death with greater ease!"
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
The wrinkles around Fang Hai's eyes began to deepen. He froze his gray eyebrows and said, "Lord, although the quantity of these equipments is extremely impressive, judging from the forging strength of my ancestors back then, it seems that they are still a little stretched."
"This is reasonable. From Mr. Xiao's description, it is not difficult to see that the last 100,000 soldiers of the Loren Kingdom, under the leadership of the Loren Royal Family, obviously fought hard to the last moment."
While Lei Xiao was slowly pacing among the equipment racks surrounded by his subordinates, he said: "This means that the consumption of equipment must be very huge. Under such circumstances, we can still achieve such gains. I have already
Very satisfied.”
"What the lord said is absolutely true, but my subordinates didn't think carefully."
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, Fang Hai nodded thoughtfully, and began to sigh with regret: "The forging skills of each piece of these remaining equipment are truly amazing. My ancestors were really impressive back then.
I’m so amazed.”
"Mr. Fang Hai, don't be upset. When the conditions are met, I will rescue your ancestors, and then you and your grandson can be reunited."
Lei Xiao nodded to the old blacksmith and continued: "At the same time, I will try my best to strive for you to reach a strength that is comparable to that of your ancestor Lao Xiaoer as soon as possible."
"I would like to thank you very much, Lord!"
Fang Hai's old face was full of excitement, and he nodded repeatedly: "In this way, my subordinates and ancestors will be able to serve the lord better, and my family will be revitalized!"
"I think that day may not be far away anymore."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, then turned his eyes to the thing in front of him again, and murmured to himself.
"But having said that, this is the treasure trove of the Loren royal family after all. Apart from these conventional wealth and equipment, there should be some other special items, right?"
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
As the footsteps of a group of people echoed, the hazy dark environment ahead began to become clearer.
Not long after, a metal throne standing on a high platform appeared in front of the group of people.
"There is actually a throne here? No, since this is the royal family's treasure trove, it would be more appropriate to call it a throne."
Out of curiosity, Lei Xiao nodded to the subordinates beside him and began to quicken his pace.
At the same time, at Lei Xiao's signal, Ariel also used her specialty magic light ball, making everything around her suddenly bright as day.
When he got closer to the throne, Lei Xiao noticed further.
The metal throne standing on the high platform is very special. It is brass-colored and the backrest is composed of two interlaced horse head sculptures.
The lower part of the throne is engraved with patterns of horse legs and hoofs, making the entire seat look like an abstract and enigmatic work of art.
In addition, the throne exudes a vague and majestic atmosphere, which makes people feel awe-inspiring.
"Lord, this is the throne of the Knight King of the Kingdom of Loren!"
Erza, who was well versed in history, saw her starry eyes light up, and she bowed to Lei Xiao and introduced: "According to ancient documents, every generation of monarchs in the Kingdom of Loren, without exception, calls himself the King of Knights, and knights
The king’s throne is the symbol of Loren’s royal power!”
"The throne of the King of Knights?"
Lei Xiao looked up at the metal throne that exuded copper-colored luster, pondering and wondering: "But why does this throne, which symbolizes Loren's royal power, appear in this treasure place?"
Puzzled, Lei Xiao's gaze moved downwards and he discovered that directly below the high platform of the Knight's Throne, there were three solemn metal thrones arranged in sequence.
It's just that there is only a horse head pattern on the back of the three metal thrones, but other places are pretty much the same.
"Lord, if my subordinates guessed correctly, this is the throne of the Apocalypse Knight."
Elusaxin's long ears twitched slightly, and she began to introduce again: "The Knights of the Apocalypse are the strongest fighting force under the King of Knights, and they are also the pillars of the Kingdom of Loren. The strength of each of them is above the fifth level.
"
"However, as far as I know, the term Knight of the Apocalypse did not originate from the Kingdom of Loren, but from a legend before the Blank Era."
Erza's starry eyes reflected the solemn thrones one after another, and then said: "The Kingdom of Loren only refers to this legendary title and uses it as a symbol of strength and honor."
"Understand, King of Knights and Knights of the Apocalypse? The owners of these thrones must have experienced a series of thrilling adventures and challenges, right?"
After hearing Erza's introduction, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Sarah, who had been following Lei Xiao closely, looked at the scene in front of her excitedly with a pious look on her face.
Thousands of years ago, her ancestors were on this knight's throne, guarding everything on this land. What an awe-inspiring thing!
Thinking of this, Sarah, who was excited, couldn't help but look at Lei Xiao's gentle profile again.
And why don't the lords he follows continue the responsibilities and honors of his ancestors in the same way?
"Erza, do you think the appearance of these thrones and thrones in the treasure place is a bit too abrupt?"
Lei Xiao thought for a moment and frowned at the dark elf beside him: "Are these thrones themselves part of the treasure?"
"Lord, my subordinates have also thought of this. From a common sense point of view, the reason why the throne and the throne are precious is because of the person sitting on it."
A trace of doubt also appeared on Erza's fair face, and she shook her head helplessly and said: "Maybe it's because the materials of these thrones themselves are expensive, or maybe the last Knight King doesn't want the throne to be compromised by his opponents.
Trample them."
Just when Lei Xiao and Erza were talking about this.
Sarah, who was standing aside, was startled, and then she bowed to Lei Xiao and said, "Lord Qi, I seem to sense a familiar aura from the throne."
After a pause, Sarah added with a complicated expression: "This familiar aura makes me feel warm and warm after a long absence, just like seeing my father. It is really a different experience."
"Oh? This is the throne from a thousand years ago."
Lei Xiao's face was full of surprise, he nodded thoughtfully and said: "Is there some kind of magical spell sealed on it?"
Sure enough, as soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, a distant and aged hoarse voice resounded throughout the entire treasure land.
"I see, a thousand years have passed? I didn't expect that after a thousand years, I would still see the descendants of the royal family of Wo Luolun."
