As a professional power leveler in the game "Voyage", Raymond once spent a long time in the "dark dungeon" under the King's Court of Giants and Fathlon.
This is a rare monster-dense area and wild treasure hunting area. Upgrading and equipping is an excellent place not to be missed.
He is familiar with almost all the monster lairs on the first and second floors of the dungeon, the layout of the dwarf buildings and the safety lines.
Although most crypt creatures are very aggressive, if you really understand the habits of those monsters and become familiar with the safe routes on the map, whether they are spawning monsters or hunting for treasure, they will no longer be considered too much of a threat.
For others, this "dark dungeon" is definitely a "flesh grinding mill" full of dangers. But for Raymond, it is no different from a back garden with some spiders and ants.
At least, this is the case for the areas explored by players on the first three floors.
...
The "Ghost Group" did not rush to the ground like other adventurers, but wandered around the city for a long time.
Raymond purchased some necessary exploration tools, ropes, magic lamps, insect repellent powder, phosphorus fire powder... There is a complex terrain environment underground, and many necessary exploration tools need to be prepared.
Lulu, on the other hand, listened to Raymond's advice and prepared enough various medicines for trauma, corrosion, toxins, burns, awakening... to deal with various emergencies.
The two mechanics, Colin and Nicole, checked their mechanical combat suits, replenished enough energy and ammunition, and also installed some professional caving excavation equipment...
Anna prepared the recorder and mapping equipment, and she planned to draw an adventure map...
Thor brought his spear and buckler...
Fat Cat and Monkey, two foodies, seemed to have nothing to prepare, so they brought pots, pans, pans and a lot of food...
The reason why Raymond took his time to hunt for treasure was because he knew very well that the area of this "dark underground city" underground was many times larger than the city of Jaffatron.
If you go to the ground blindly, you may not necessarily gain an advantage, but you may also encounter life-threatening danger.
This underground city is like a pyramid. The Giant King's Court is at the top of the tower, and the area is not very large. The ancient dwarf city is the base of the pyramid, and it is unknown how wide it is. In this pyramid, it was submerged by the sea, and only the tower emerged.
tip.
The ancient dwarves are the "craftsmen" born in mythology. They are good at mining and forging.
After the dwarves discover mineral deposits, they will build cities in the mine pits left after digging. Therefore, the dwarf cities are generally built against the mountains, and most of the buildings are hidden in the mountains.
There are rich mineral resources underground in Jaffatron, which should have been even more prosperous in ancient times.
An ancient dwarf tribe was once active here, which is probably the origin of this "dark dungeon".
...
The news that there was an ancient ruin under the King's Court of Giants quickly spread throughout the entire Jaffatron. This astonishing discovery also spread quickly throughout the entire Endless Sea through various news channels, as if it had grown wings.
It won't be long before adventurers and explorers from all sea areas will flock here.
Therefore, all the adventurers in the city now have a sense of urgency in their hearts, and they all want to be the first to explore this ancient ruins that have been sealed in dust for countless years.
Now that it is confirmed that there is an ancient ruins underground in Jaffatron, these thousands of meters of rock formations can no longer stop adventurers.
Not long after the news came out, countless pirate groups and all members of the adventure group were dispatched... Like mushrooms after a spring rain, countless newly dug, bottomless underground caves appeared outside the city of Jaffatron.
...
After the purchase was ready, Raymond led the ghost group out of the city.
They found a secret place more than ten miles outside the city, and also planned to dig a hole into the underground city.
This is the general area chosen by Raymond.
Although not far away was the entrance to the "Dark Dungeon" that players found in the game, entering from there would save a lot of effort. But he didn't say much, followed everyone's wishes, and chose to dig a tunnel into the ruins.
This time, he didn't intend to act too omniscient and omnipotent.
As long as there is no big problem with the direction everyone chooses, he will usually agree with everyone's suggestions. He doesn't want a treasure hunting adventure that everyone is looking forward to to turn into his own "prophetic show".
With two mechanics, Colin and Nicole, the job of digging holes couldn't be easier.
Even if the rock formations underground in Galfatron become stronger and stronger, they cannot stop mechanical excavation.
The members of the "ghost group" were like the captain who was trying to get into trouble. They dug a "stealing hole" and followed the rope all the way down. The underground world is not exposed to light all the year round, and the temperature is much lower than the ground. When the cold wind blows, it always makes people feel uncomfortable.
People have the feeling of swimming in icy water.
"Praise..."
Not long after, everyone heard the sound of rocks falling to the ground.
"Captain, we seem to have dug inside the ruins!"
Colin's excavation equipment finally dug into an open space, like a mine tunnel, estimated to be two meters high.
Raymond and others behind him also filed in and jumped down into the mine.
Anna and others were filled with excitement, "Wow... I finally said it."
Obviously, Colin is more interested in this mine.
He casually picked up a rock fragment that he had just dug into the "robbery hole" and weighed it.
It is slightly heavy in the hand and has a metallic ice feel to the touch.
He smacked his lips and said: "No wonder this rock formation is getting harder and harder to fight. It turns out that these are dwarven ruins in a high-quality black iron mine."
Nicole also said excitedly: "As expected, the ancient dwarves would build the city in the ore pits they dug."
"It's just that this mine is a little too short..."
Sol on the side muttered.
This height is not very friendly to the giants.
"Come on, let's walk over first and take a look."
Raymond called everyone to come.
He looked at his surroundings and was not sure where they were now.
After walking a few steps, everyone in the "Ghost Group" followed Raymond to a wider space, and finally saw the buildings in the ruins.
Although the vision in the darkness is not very clear, everyone in the "ghost group" is an extraordinary person, and they can vaguely see that this is a dense group of buildings. In this huge mine, there are buildings as densely packed as fish scales.
Some small houses.
Raymond is familiar with this kind of architecture.
He knew that this was the village of the ancient dwarves.
The first level of the ruins is mainly the "living area". There are tens of thousands of these almost identical dwarf tribe gathering areas. The scale of the dungeon is very large. Some data emperors in the game have estimated that this dungeon may have been inhabited.
Over ten million dwarves.
"Wow...these houses are so small~Is this the residence of the ancient dwarves?"
Everyone was excited, they personally uncovered a dusty ancient ruins.
At this time, Raymond warned: "Everyone, be careful and try not to create light sources. These cave creatures are not exposed to light all year round. They are very sensitive to light sources and are easily attracted by light sources."
Although he is covered with the domineering energy of knowledge and information, he has already detected that there are no monsters in this area. But if there is any big movement, it will immediately be like exploding a hornet's nest, causing a chain reaction. Countless scalps will pop up in the darkness.
A numbing mass of monsters.
"Got it, Captain."
Everyone agreed.
When they first landed, everyone was still a little cautious, but they couldn't hide the excitement in their eyes.
Anna looked at the neat rows of small houses, as if seeing treasure boxes one by one, and exclaimed: "Wow... is this the dwarf dungeon?"
This lady who is obsessed with money is obviously very interested in treasure hunting. She said with excitement on her face: "Let's go and search quickly, just in case there are really any treasures in these houses..."
"These houses should just be the residences of ordinary dwarves...there is nothing valuable, right?"
Raymond reminded him kindly, not wanting Anna and the others to spend more time here.
If he remembered correctly, these dwarf huts were just ordinary residences, and they probably contained nothing of value.
Even if there are, most of them are some corroded and shapeless living utensils, maybe some pottery pots and the like... At most, you can find a few gold and silver coins from ancient times, so it's not worth wasting too much energy.
The really valuable things are all in those large buildings.
"They're all here anyway. If you don't search, what if you miss the treasure?"
Anna smiled at him disapprovingly and continued her treasure hunt with great interest.
The "big sisters" on the ship all started working. Other crew members like Colin, Lulu, Sha Mao, and Jiji, who were dominated by the big sister, naturally responded to the call and joined the team of treasure hunting and looting...
After arriving at the ruins, everyone was very interested in treasure hunting, and there was quite a momentum to loot every room here.
"hehe..."
Raymond laughed twice and shook his head.
Although he guessed that everyone would not gain anything, he did not say anything to spoil everyone's interest.
He turned around and looked at the surrounding environment, trying to determine where their current precise location was, and whispered to himself: "This should be not far from the 'Bloody Monastery'..."
This time they did not enter the dungeon through the entrance in the game, but Raymond thought that the general direction did not deviate too much, and the expected target should be nearby.
In the game, the land development team that discovered the dwarf warehouse key had not found the "silver key" for a long time, so they wrote the places where the "bronze key" and "gold key" were found on the forum, hoping that other players could explore together.
, find the last "silver key" and open the warehouse.
If he remembered correctly, the "Bronze Key" was in the Bloody Monastery on the first floor, and the "Golden Key" should be in the Dwarf Central Library on the second floor. As for the warehouse that had been dusty for countless years, it was in
the third floor.
These places are the places he plans to explore first.
...
The height of adult dwarves is generally no more than 1.5 meters, and their house space seems a bit cramped for ordinary people.
Lulu and Gigi had no problem getting in and out, and Anna and the others had no problem hunching over.
However, it seems very unfriendly to giants like Thor.
This little giant had been leading the ghost group for some time, and he was also convinced by Anna, the eldest sister. He wanted to follow his friends to search for treasures in the house, but his strong body of more than three meters could barely fit into the house and he could not move.
He twisted his body and made a loud bang against the hard iron ore wall, making it difficult to turn over.
Helpless, he could only retreat, spread his hands towards Raymond, and shouted: "Captain, these dwarf houses are quite sturdy, but they are just too short and a little too small."
"Ha ha..."
Raymond smiled and did not join in the fun of "treasure hunting".
"If they knew that there were tens of thousands of dwarf tribe gathering areas like this in the dungeon, they probably wouldn't be so enthusiastic..."
He looked at everyone's excited expressions and muttered in his heart.
He thought that once everyone was disappointed, interest would naturally fade away, and they would not waste time in a place like this.
But unfortunately, the slap in the face came quickly.
Not long after Anna entered a room, she suddenly exclaimed: "Everyone, come and see, I found a treasure!"
Damn it?
Upon hearing this, Raymond was suddenly stunned.
There was an incredible look in his eyes, and he muttered: "No way... is there really a treasure?"
The thing that the wealthy lady could regard as a treasure was definitely not a few coins.
"What? Sister Anna found the treasure..."
"Really? What did you find..."
"Wow... we seem to be lucky. We found the treasure just after we came down to the ruins."
"..."
Hearing this, everyone who was searching for the treasure also walked out of the house, full of expectations.
"Look! This is it..."
At this time, Anna also dragged out a set of heavy armor from the room she was searching.
Raymond's "dark vision" is very good, so he can clearly see at a glance that this is a set of knight's heavy armor of high quality.
The system scanned and displayed a row of attributes.
Detailed explanation: Excellent armor forged by ancient dwarven craftsmen;
"Did you really find the treasure?!"
Looking at the harvest of "opening up wasteland", Raymond felt unbelievable and muttered: "You actually found a piece of silver-level armor just by looking for it?"
Silver-quality armor is considered mid- to high-end armor on the market.
This is just a treasure collected from an ordinary dwarf residence...
"Equipment that actually has rune stones embedded in it?!"
Colin on the side is obviously more knowledgeable.
He stroked the light yellow gem inlaid on the armor and praised: "What an exquisite forging process, and the inlaying skills are almost perfect... Oh my god, it's hard to imagine how those ancient civilizations without machinery could create such things.
Such exquisite armor! The ancient dwarves truly deserve their reputation..."
"Rune stones" are various rare gems with attributes. Because they can withstand inscription enchantment, they are often used by alchemists to make stones that carry runes. The higher the level of the gem, the higher the level it can withstand runes.
.
Generally, equipment that can be inlaid with rune stones is considered a rare treasure of fine quality or above.
Seeing the armor in front of him, even Raymond doubted his judgment.
Is it possible that there are so many treasures in this "Dark Dungeon" that equipment can be picked up everywhere?
But obviously, that's not the case.
...
"Everyone, look quickly. There may be other treasures in these rooms..."
"Yes, look for it quickly!"
"..."
Because of Anna's good start, everyone excitedly rushed into the dwarf houses and carefully demolished more than two hundred houses.
But as Raymond expected, apart from finding some coins and gems of not very high quality, there weren't many valuable things.
That piece of silver armor is the only thing that catches everyone's attention.
Not long after, almost everyone in the "Ghost Group" including Raymond returned empty-handed.
At this time, everyone became more and more curious, why was Anna so lucky to find the treasure the first time?
"Anna, how did you know there was a treasure in that house?"
Anna found the treasure in the first house she searched. How could this make Raymond, a time traveler, feel embarrassed?
Obviously, Miss Anna, who is obsessed with money, is far more sensitive to treasure hunting than anyone else.
She explained with a smile: "Although the construction styles of dwarf houses are similar, this room is obviously wider than the lintel. I guess this house should be the residence of a dwarf commander, or a village chief..."
"That's it..."
Raymond also understood what he heard. When he came across these maps in the previous game, everything in the house had been looted. He had preconceived notions that there would be no treasures in such a small place.
But they ignored that they were "opening up wasteland".
They are the first people to walk here in countless years!
This is a completely unexplored treasure place.
Silver armor can be found in a gathering area of tribal residents, so in those large-scale towns, aren't there more surprises waiting for them?
The members of the "Ghost Group" didn't waste any more time. Under Raymond's secret guidance, they slowly explored towards those large building concentration areas.
Along the way, I occasionally encountered a dwarf village, so I searched for a few larger houses.
With this method, they found that the harvest was pretty good...
Dwarf hammers, rune gems, rare ores... I also collected a lot here and there.
