Chapter 81 Statue with human head and snake body
Imrik pushed hard and found that the stone door was extremely heavy. With only his poor strength attribute of 10 points, he could not push it open at all.
"Haha, let me do this kind of thing." Jerome posed, squatted down, and pushed the door with all his strength.
"Ah!!!" He couldn't help but blushed, but the stone door was still only pushed open a small crack.
Imrik shook his head and called the copper furnace for help. The two-headed tauren with a strength attribute of 27 roared angrily. The thick and terrifying muscles on his arms tightened, and veins popped out with the exertion.
"Crunch." Gathering the most powerful people from the two teams, the stone door was finally pushed open.
Imrik looked back at Uriel, not knowing what he was thinking with his deep black eyes, but in the end he turned around silently and walked into the room.
Inside the room was a dusty hall. The spider webs in the corners and the thick dust on the ground indicated that no one had been here for a long time.
The four walls and ceiling of this wide and long hall are decorated with porcelain tiles depicting various animals and strange text symbols. In the picture, lizard-like animals and humanoids with human heads and snake bodies are holding balls of different colors.
Sitting around a golden scroll.
In the center of the hall, a strange statue stood in the room, with a blue-gray sphere at its feet. This monster statue had horns, four arms with claws, a human head and a snake body, and was covered with large and small monsters all over its body.
The uniform stone nail-like protrusions look quite similar to the Ethiopian lizards, but are slightly different.
Next to this statue, there are four slightly smaller statues of lizard men, all with slightly different looks.
In addition, there are collapsed bookshelves on the floor, various clay pots, glass bottles, medicine bottles, and various long-decayed alchemy instruments scattered throughout the room.
After Domira came in, she rummaged around, and the dust piled up like snow on the ground was all thrown into the air by her reckless actions.
"Ahem. Ahem, why are they all a bunch of useless garbage?" Domila coughed due to being choked by dust, and said with a disappointed look on her face.
"If you are still worried about this, it would be more serious to find a way out quickly!" Hamlein complained.
Jerome also asked: "Yes, Miss Uriel, I don't know how to go now."
Miss Uriel said innocently: "Let's look for a mechanism. There should be some mechanism that can open hidden passages or something like that."
Jerome took a breath, looked at her in disbelief and said, "What? You don't know how to go? Then why did you ask us to go here."
Uriel thought for a moment and said: "I saw that the lizardmen who captured us never went out after they came in here, so I guess there must be an exit from here."
After hearing this, everyone had to look around. After a while, Uriel shouted from the corner: "Look! I found something strange!"
Uriel ran over from the corner holding four spheres and placed them in front of everyone. They were four strange spheres: white, azure, crimson, and dark green.
Imric picked up one and used detection magic to look at it, and a subtle light flickered.
"It's a magic item, probably connected to something." Imrik judged.
"Ah! I thought about it. The statue in the middle has a similar sphere. Maybe this one belongs there." Domira said in surprise.
Everyone hurriedly came to the statue, and sure enough they found an identical blue-gray sphere at the feet of the middle statue. The other four statues also had a semi-sunken round pit at their feet.
Domila took the four spheres and inserted them into the four ball pits in sequence. After trying about a dozen orders, when he finally placed the last sphere at once, a "clicking" sound sounded.
A door suddenly appeared in the corner of the hall. Jerome's eyes lit up when he saw it: "Look! Passage!"
The back of the passage was filled with a faint mist, and Jerome cast the paladin magic of [Detect Poison] against the mist inside.
"It's not poisonous." Jerome confirmed. After hearing the answer, Zach was the first to step in. The others looked at each other and had no choice but to step into the mist too.
"Wait." Imrik called everyone in the mist, raised his hand and pointed forward, and chanted a spell: "Wind creation."
The second-level spell - wind creation.
Strong winds spurted out from Imric's hands, and the fog in the passage was blown away, revealing his true appearance.
At the end of the passage, there is a strange arch with three huge stones embedded deep into the arch. Each stone has a different color.
Everyone walked to the door arch, opened the door and walked in.
"Oh my God!" What happened behind the door shocked everyone.
Behind the gate was a huge underground cavity, and in front of them was an almost abandoned underground city. This city was full of strange tubular buildings. In addition, there were giant lizard men.
The statue, and in the center of the city, stands the tallest black mage tower.
"What is this?" Uriel stepped on the black powder on the ground. This kind of powder could be seen everywhere in the city.
Imrik glanced down and pointed into the distance: "The remains of those guys."
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw undead creatures wandering on the streets in the distance. From time to time, some black powder fell from their bodies and fell to the ground.
"Oh my god, how many undead creatures must there be to leave so many!" Uriel said in shock.
Imrik seemed to have finally had enough. He turned to look at the other party and said coldly: "You really don't know?"
The others looked at Imric in confusion, and Uriel also said with confusion: "Ah? Mr. Mage, what do you mean by this?"
"Phantom Binding." The black-robed mage didn't explain too much. Instead, he stretched out his hand and summoned a stream of shadow energy, rising from the ground and crawling towards the body of the blonde girl.
Jerome shouted in shock: "Imrik! What are you doing? Why are you hurting Miss Uriel?!"
But the next scene made him even more shocked. Uriel, who he had remembered as weak and helpless, suddenly changed his expression. He waved his hand indifferently, and the shadow energy summoned by Imric suddenly disappeared.
It disappears and dissolves as if it has encountered a natural enemy.
"Very careful insight, mage." Uriel stared at Imric without any fluctuation in her eyes and said.
"When did you find out?"
Imrik sneered: "Do you think I will believe your reasons that are full of loopholes? I never believed you from the beginning. Stepping into that hall only made me more sure. I don't believe you saw the lizard."
People come in here.”
Uriel shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Okay, but I didn't really think I could deceive you."
