Chapter 1,415 Ancient Azshara City Hall, Opening the Elf Treasure House
Let’s not talk about the legion for now.
With Zong Shen's ability, it's easy to help him.
Therefore, he readily agreed to Jiang Yi's request.
"Just let me know when the time comes."
"I will send an army of 150,000 troops to carry out the legion's upgrade mission."
Zong Shen is well aware of the territory's current military strength.
Freeing up 150,000 troops in a short period of time is more than enough.
What's more, in the near future, Archduke Jonathan, a money-splitting boy, will send him a large number of people and soldiers.
After briefly chatting for a few more words, Zong Shen chose to hang up the communication.
Time passes minute by second.
A mere quarter of an hour passed quickly.
As the report of completion of reinforcement came.
Zoe Babbitt made a gesture of invitation to Zong Shen.
They came to the pothole.
Thick wooden beams are fixed in an I-shape above the tunnel.
There are cantilever beams on both sides for support, and cross wooden stakes are nailed on.
It’s hard to imagine that it only took two or three hours from excavation to reinforcement.
This efficiency is already very good.
The pit was dark, and two farmers were walking in front holding lights made of white crystal.
What lingers in the nose is the fishy smell of fresh earth and a sense of moisture.
The soil under your feet has undergone preliminary solidification and is relatively solid when you step on it.
Part of the soft soil layer underwent additional excavation and was paved with stone slabs to reinforce and distribute the pressure generated by trampling.
The tunnel is not too steep, and after advancing for about a hundred meters, we reached the ruins hall in a diagonal way.
This was once the location of the city hall of the great city of Azshara.
But it was buried deep underground over the long years.
And this place has obviously been severely damaged.
Traces of ruined walls can be seen around the hall.
Because it was buried deep and then excavated, this is not really a serious hall.
Only when the war broke out in the last era, this place should have been the square in front of the city hall.
The main body of the city hall is a huge tree spirit.
The tree spirit was in a broken and withering state.
It has long lost any vitality.
It's just that because of its deep foundation, it has not been completely corrupted even though it has been buried deep for so long.
The farmers in the territory cleared the ground of the soil that had been silted here like ants moving.
The top here is also reinforced with wooden beams.
The only place that was not reinforced was the location of the withered tree spirit.
The remaining roots and branches formed a fairly stable support.
There is actually a large underground ruins nearby.
So the excavation continues.
Just to facilitate Zong Shen's exploration, some of the manpower involved in the excavation was reduced.
From time to time, one or two treasure chests can be dug out from the surrounding ruins.
Then there were one or two baggage boxes.
The preservation conditions of these baggage boxes vary from good to bad.
The ordnance and supplies in good baggage boxes are basically intact.
As for the baggage boxes that were in poor condition, the contents were almost rotten.
The harvest from this kind of exploration of buried ruins depends entirely on luck.
It feels a bit like picking up trash.
It's not as refreshing and neat as those ruins with their own underground space.
Zong Shen stood there and observed for a while, then focused on the tree spirit in front of him.
It is not only part of the original city hall of the great city of Azshara, but also the location of the Azshara Elf Treasure House.
The Elf Treasure House was also the core warehouse of a giant city among the ancient elves.
Its mission is to reserve important strategic materials.
So the size of the treasure house is not small.
This is why Zong Shen has been looking forward to it.
It is no exaggeration to say that the elven treasure house in the great city of Azshara is the greatest wealth in this region.
Other messy ruins may have different harvests.
But I'm afraid it's not as good as this treasure house.
Its location is underground, next to the roots of the Town Hall Tree Spirit.
Zong Shen walked slowly and soon came to the withered tree spirit.
This tree spirit is huge, and even though it is withered and incomplete today, it still looks spectacular.
The diameter of the tree exceeds two hundred meters.
This means that its crown diameter can reach at least one kilometer.
Although this size is not comparable to that of urban trees, it is far from comparable to ordinary tree spirits.
It is worth mentioning that there is no soil buried around the tree spirit due to the natural support.
This allows the place to still retain its style from the previous era.
Zong Shen also had the opportunity to see most of its details.
There is no doubt that this is an ancient tree spirit that once carried countless glory and vitality.
Its existence is like a majestic and magnificent natural palace.
It exists as a sacred and prosperous city hall for the Azshara elves.
However, time is ruthless and fate is unfortunate.
Nowadays, it has experienced the wind and frost brought by the years, and it is a devastated sight.
It once had lush and boundless branches and leaves.
Zong Shen could even imagine the scene like a green canopy umbrella,
The huge tree canopy protects the elves from wind and rain.
But now, those leaves have long since turned into dust, leaving only the vigorous branches exposed.
Suddenly looking at it, it looks like the skinny arm of an old man.
It also seems to be a skeleton that tells the story of the glory of the past and the sorrow of today.
The trunks of the branches are thick and covered with traces of erosion over time.
The cracked surface is like the growth rings of history.
It seems that every one of them records a story from the past.
The bark is broken and peeled off, revealing the dark brown texture inside.
From here you can see that the inside of the tree is almost petrified.
They are the marks of time and the scars of being devastated.
This ancient tree spirit is deeply rooted in the ground. After thousands of years of baptism, most of its body has been covered with thick soil and gravel.
Only part of the broken tree body is left standing here.
It is silently telling that forgotten history to those who come after.
Despite suffering a devastating blow.
But even deep underground, the shape of the tree spirit is still intact.
At first glance, it seems as if it is sleeping, waiting for the opportunity to be reborn, and quietly guarding this land.
Although Zong Shen can confirm that its vitality has long passed.
But in Taka, this is still a bridge connecting the past and the future.
Go deep into the spirit of this tree that has been eroded by time and disaster.
Zong Shen seemed to have discovered a strange and mysterious world.
In the center of the originally broad tree hole, the bustling scene of the Elf Council in the past was no longer visible, and was replaced by a quiet and empty space.
The central trunk is like a natural pillar, extending upward into the unknown depths of darkness, with circles of faintly shining tree patterns remaining on its inner wall.
It looks like ancient runes, recording ancient knowledge and wisdom.
Surrounding the main trunk, most of the originally well-proportioned tree chamber structures have collapsed, leaving only a few scattered platforms and stairs half-hidden in the ruins.
Exquisite carvings and patterns can still be seen on it.
The tree spirit itself is a special existence.
It is both a building and a tree.
Those carvings bear witness to the prosperity and artistic atmosphere of the past.
Just overhead, above the main hall.
There is a crystal heart condensed from the essence of tree spirits.
It also withered.
It's just still shining with a faint but constant light.
It is produced by the slow escape of the life essence within it.
This crystal heart is often the source of the tree spirit's vitality.
It is also a spiritual symbol of the elves.
The ancient carvings on the surrounding tree walls are already mottled.
But it can still be discerned that it depicts the life scenes of elves living in harmony with nature.
Zong Shen did not linger here for too long.
Following the guidance of the strategy module, he found the passage to the treasure house.
Azshara's elven treasure trove is located underground.
The passage leading to this mysterious treasure house is poetic.
Heading towards the downward passage, there is a road paved with cobblestones.
Then it shuttles through the channels with stable roots.
Gradually it came deep underground.
Stone buildings began to appear here.
Set foot on the spiraling stone steps.
White crystal stones are inlaid on both sides of the stairs.
The gentle white light emitted from it is very stable and enough to illuminate the road ahead.
Zong Shen walked in front, and Zoe Babbitt followed him expectantly.
As an adventurer, her expectations for this place are no less than Zong Shen's.
Mottled marks can be seen everywhere on the rock walls and ground.
There were collapses and fragmentation in some areas, but no bones were seen.
It seems that after occupying Azshara, the group of blood-burning demons wandered around again more than once.
When you reach the end, you will see a huge cast door.
The door is inlaid with intricate machine locks and precious stones.
Only those who hold the city's secret key can open it.
The entire treasure house is integrated and is a square.
Zong Shen stared intently, and golden subtitles suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
【Azshara Elf Treasure House】
[When the durability drops below 20%, the treasure house will self-destruct]
…
It can be seen that the devil has destroyed this place.
But because I was afraid of self-destruction, I didn’t lose everything.
Until they came to an end, this place was preserved.
Of course, in Zong Shen's opinion, the reason why this place can survive must be inseparable from the lord system.
Because the lord system always intends to leave resources for the next era.
In front of this mysterious and solid treasure house, Zong Shen couldn't help but feel longing.
It is right in front of you now.
Putting aside the thoughts in his mind, he began to observe seriously.
It can be seen that there are no gaps in the treasure house, and the surface is engraved with complex and incomprehensible magic runes, exuding a faint silvery gray shimmer.
This demonstrates its powerful protective power.
The treasure house's sophisticated self-destruction settings allow it to resonate with energy.
The blood-burning demon once wielded the claws of blood flames and attacked this place with incomparable violence and greed, trying to seize the endless wealth in the treasure house.
But in the end he didn't succeed.
Only the surface of the treasure house also left traces of damage.
The ravines and depressions are the best evidence.
The only thing that can open Azshara's Elf Treasure House is the [Elf Key].
This unique key, flowing with the power of the forest spirit and moonlight, is the answer to unlocking this tight seal.
When the real holder of the key appears.
Everything will come to an end.
Zong Shen took out the complete version of [Elf Key] with his backhand.
Immediately, I saw something strange happening around me.
The response was almost immediate.
The key and the treasure house emitted a faint silver light at the same time.
And it moves slowly and rhythmically like breathing.
Prove the connection between the key and the treasure trove.
Zong Shen took a deep breath.
He had already seen the rune keyhole on the front of the treasure house.
There is a circular depression there that fits the key exactly.
So he stepped towards the treasure house door.
When you lift it up and stick the key into the depression of the rune keyhole in the center, a miracle will appear instantly.
The key fits perfectly into the depression.
A clear energy surged out from the key, spreading rapidly like the roots of the tree of life.
Then, the lights are visible to the naked eye along the rune path on the door of the treasure house.
Every rune shines brightly in an instant.
Then, the treasure house door began to slowly slide to both sides.
Along with the melodious melody, it is like an ancient forest song echoing underground.
The eternal door is thus opened.
There are no obscure sounds, only melodious sounds.
Two or three minutes before and after.
The door to the treasure house is completely opened.
The dreamlike scene inside gradually unfolds.
Many treasures sparkle under the soft green light, like the starry sky reflected on the lake.
Ancient scrolls and weapons lie quietly on shelves made of adamantine and mithril,
These ancient objects are exuding a solemn atmosphere.
At this moment, the underground treasure house was no longer a dead storage place, but glowed with new life and vitality, reawakening the elven legend that had been dusted by time.
The misty lights of various colors made Zong Shen feel dazzled.
Through those radiant treasures.
You can see baggage boxes made of fine gold.
The internal space of the treasure house is huge.
Although this is not all of Azshara's warehouse, it is the core of Azshara.
Therefore, this treasure house covers tens of thousands of square meters.
Comparable to several large liquidations on the planet.
The contents inside are roughly divided into two parts.
The first part is the baggage box, and even the box body is valuable.
The materials used to build the baggage trunks are not only pure gold but also mithril.
The second type is a similarly luxurious-looking shelf with various treasures displayed on it.
Including weapons, armor, jewelry, magic items, potions, scrolls, even tree spirit seeds, and many more magic items.
There are many kinds, and it can be seen that their value should be higher than the contents of the baggage box.
The treasures are scattered and collected here.
Zong Shen did not step in rashly, but stood outside the treasure house and observed carefully.
The scene inside the treasure house is clear at a glance.
The arrangement is also very neat.
This made Zong Shen feel like a mouse falling into a rice vat.
A surge of ecstasy subconsciously emerged in his heart.
It's like ordinary people suddenly becoming rich.
Originally, he thought that he had already trained his nerves to the point of being calm.
But in fact, it’s just not attractive enough.
Facing this treasure house that represents the essence of an entire ancient giant city.
The emotions emerging from Zong Shen's heart are the true portrayal.
There is no doubt that the contents of this treasure house will definitely allow him to reach a higher level!
In a sense, the harvest is even greater than what was gained by taking down the giant city of Lentax!
