After getting the results of Xiaoqing's investigation, Ryan and the others walked a few steps and turned a corner. An extremely spacious room made of large ashlar stones appeared in front of them. Stepping into this room, Ryan could feel the warmth of Xi Xi.
The cool breeze blew over my body, immediately blowing away the heat I felt in the tunnel just now.
It seemed that there was a vent in this place. Thinking of this, Ryan began to look around. At this time, Hermione also walked out of the hole in the back. The cool breeze from the vent immediately cheered up.
After looking around, Hermione asked curiously. "Isn't it said that after walking a long path in an adventure, there will always be a lot of things waiting for you? Why is there nothing here?"
"The adventure novels written by my father are artistically processed. There are not so many treasures in reality. Besides, there is only one servant passage here. It is strange that there are good things." After all, I was nervous in the passage just now.
After walking for such a long time, Ryan also wanted to talk to relieve his mental fatigue.
"Wait a minute." Ryan suddenly saw something. "What you said is not entirely wrong. I think I found some treasures." At this time, Ryan walked to the edge of a stone basin in the center of the stone room and pointed into the stone basin.
something said.
"What is this?" Hermione stepped forward to take a look, but as a result, even if there was a Head Bubble Charm, a fishy smell rushed straight to her nose, causing her to quickly back away.
"This is the cheapest stuff at 60 galleons per pound, and I've never seen this stuff in stock in Diagon Alley." Ryan said while blocking Hermione's sight from the Wanjie Grocery Store with his body.
He took out a five-liter oil drum. Then put the yellow-white ointment in the basin into the oil drum.
"Wait a minute, I seem to have read about this thing in the book." Hermione thought for a moment after hearing Ryan's narration and then said. "Is this the oil of the magic anaconda? The book said that it was used to brew some potions.
Adding the oil of the magic anaconda as fuel can greatly increase the success rate of the potion."
"As expected of Miss Know-It-All." Ryan was a little surprised by Hermione's range of knowledge, because it was a very partial knowledge. If he hadn't seen this thing in a book by chance, he wouldn't have guessed what it was. "You
You're right, I just discovered that this should cost 200 galleons per pound, because the longer the oil is aged, the better. The pot in front of us has been aged for at least a thousand years, and it has changed from milky white to light yellow. So.
It’s not that there are no benefits for us if we fall this time, at least even if most of the contents in this basin evaporate, the remaining items can be sold for at least 300 galleons or more.”
Hermione didn't show much excitement after listening to Ryan's words. After all, it's hard to make people happy in such a dangerous place, even if they gained a lot of good things this time.
After putting most of the magic anaconda oil into the oil drum, Ryan put away the oil drum and used a cup to pour the remaining oil into the two grooves on the wall in front of him, then used his wand to fire sparks and ignited it.
Oil in the grooves.
Blue flames burned slowly in the grooves, and as the flames burned, a faint fragrance filled the entire house. At the same time, the wall slowly rose upwards, revealing the passage behind it.
"How did you discover this mechanism?" Hermione asked curiously.
"You didn't see that there is nothing in the whole house except the stone basin. There are only two grooves on the opposite wall. There are some black burn marks on the grooves. Considering the precious fuel in the stone basin, this mechanism
It’s obvious how to open it. After all, this is just a passage for servants to pass through on a daily basis, and it’s impossible to set up various complex mechanisms like treasure points.”
As he spoke, Ryan took the lead and stepped into the passage. This passage should lead to a more important place, so there were a large number of reliefs on both sides. He walked forward while looking at these reliefs, feeling that he was quite Indiana at this time.
Jones adventure feeling.
As we all know, archeology has made a huge contribution to humankind's understanding of ancient history, especially in the magical world. Sometimes the things excavated by archeology even represent advanced productivity. But in any case, for some people who have been there all year round
For the owners of ancient ruins, whether they are Muggles or wizards, they definitely don't want to be dug up again.
So they were attacked not long after Ryan stepped into this tunnel: two heavily armed mummies smashed open the weak stone walls used for camouflage on both sides of the tunnel and jumped out, using their obsidian spears to express their hatred for Ryan and the others.
the attitudes of these outsiders.
"Unholy silence!" As Ryan drew the runes in the air with Klinvi's teeth while chanting the curse, a pale ray hit a mummy. It may be because this place has been abandoned for too long.
Over time, the wooden armor with runes painted on the mummy's body had mostly decayed and lost its magical defense capabilities. Therefore, this spell easily reduced a mummy to ashes.
But at this time, another mummy took the opportunity to approach, "Collapse!" The voice of Hermione chanting a spell came from behind. Unfortunately, the mummy was not a living person. The petrification spell only made the mummy pause for a moment. But it also fought for Ryan.
When the time came, he took this opportunity to release the Unholy Guiji again and killed the mummy.
Aren't South American mummies found only in cold and dry mountains? Why are there such things in tropical rainforests? They can survive in such a humid place for thousands of years, which shows that the magic of this place is much more dangerous than imagined. Think of this
, Ryan released a magic on the knife in his hand: "Holy Weapon".
Clinvi's teeth emitted a faint white light after Ryan finished reciting the spell. As long as the white light did not disappear, it meant that the effect of the spell existed: it could cause a targeted blow to any evil creature.
After all, the position where the two mummies were ambushing just now was too close to them. Ryan was worried that if the passage was narrower next time, there might not be room to release the spell at all, so he added targeted magic to the knife to be prepared.
.
Sure enough, mummies jumped out one after another from the stone walls on both sides. These should be defense lines to protect important locations from outsiders. Ryan and others who had not obtained permission from the temple naturally touched them when they passed through the corridor.
.
Based on the examination of the two mummies just now, it can be judged that this civilization did not invent metal smelting technology, because the weapons on their bodies were all made of obsidian.
For the indigenous wizards or warriors of this civilization, encountering these mummies with bodies as hard as metal, wooden armors with runes on them, and agile movements at close range in such a small place is basically a matter of narrow escape.
The temple naturally believed that this was a foolproof method of defense.
But Ryan holds another civilization's magic spell specifically for this kind of creature, but these mummies are very powerful due to the long time erosion. So Ryan and the others passed through this passage without any danger, and even went to the back to get familiar with Ryan.
When he knew how to deal with these mummies, he also used the corpse exorcism technique taught by the Four-Eyed Taoist Priest to control six mummies and protect them.
Finally, they came to a stone door. According to the map, as long as they passed this stone door, they would reach the core hall of the entire temple.
