The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 210

Chapter 210

The appearance of Griphook proved that Du Lei’s trip would never come in vain. He carefully checked the surroundings and confirmed that no one else was staring at him before pulling the Griphook off. The sound of “cang-dang” was quite in the dark night. It was ear-piercing, which shocked him, for fear of attracting the attention of others.

However, he observed for a long time on the spot, and there was no abnormal situation. Only then did he burn the match, lit a candle, raised the candle to illuminate the scene below the pull ring, and what appeared before his eyes was a direction. He didn’t hesitate to go down the stairs, and immediately went down the stairs.

The stairs are not high, only three or four meters in height. After walking to the end, it is a passage. The height of the passage is less than two meters. But for a teenager who is only about 1.6 meters tall, it is easy to pass. The passage is straight without too many twists and forks.

That is because the sky is not seen all the year round, there is a strong damp and musty smell in the passage. Du Lei held his breath and did not dare to be careless. He walked along the passage for about ten minutes, and he walked very slowly. , Calculating the distance he walked while moving forward.

He noticed that the slope of the passage was inclined downwards. When he silently counted his 642 steps, a door appeared in front of him. To be precise, it was an iron fence. The fence connected the bottom of the passage with At the top, the road was completely sealed, and a lock was still hung on the fence gate.

Du Lei happened to read the record related to the lock in the book, and recognized that the lock was an old style more than 300 years ago. Due to the age, whether it is an iron fence or a lock, it is rusty. The air was stained with rust, and the walls were a bit damp on both sides.

“The construction time of this iron fence…should be similar to the history of the Ash Tower. That is to say, when the Ash Tower was built, was this basement built? The hiding is really deep enough. If you calculate the distance, here It should be directly under the Ash Tower.” Du Lei held up the candle.

After observing it with the help of firelight, he probably judged the age of the iron fence and its relationship with the Ash Tower.

“The lock has been completely rusted to death, all you need to do is… OK, open it, what is behind the door… Let’s go and see together.” Du Lei won’t be because of such a rusty iron fence. The door knocked back, and he took the dagger from his arms and pried it on the lock.

It didn’t take long for him to pry open the lock, and a rusty iron chain tied to it fell to the ground with a “clang”, and with the sound of “creaking”, the iron fence door responded. Driving, Du Lei successfully broke through this barrier, and he continued to advance cautiously.

The “us” in his mouth naturally refers to him and the egg in his arms. If it were not for the guidance of the egg, he would not find such a secret place, and even if he knew that such a place existed, he might have Not necessarily going to explore here.

“Why is it a door again? Who built it here, so I am so cryptic? And what pattern seems to be drawn on the door? The age is too old, the color fades seriously, and I can’t see it at all, eh, this time Without the lock, did you open it so easily?”

Within a few minutes after Du Lei passed through the iron fenced gate, another door lay in front of him. This door was made of wood. However, under the erosion of time, the wood has long been decayed and can be easily screwed. After breaking the next corner, Du Lei could vaguely see a large number of patterns painted on the surface of the door.

But also under the erosion of time, he couldn’t recognize it. He tried to pull the door. He thought it would be a stumbling block, but unexpectedly, he pulled it gently and the door opened in response. Du Lei was a little surprised. He raised the candle and entered again behind the door.

“This is a…room? It looks like I should have found a place, but here…how does it look like a laboratory?” After entering the door, Du Lei observed with the light of a candle and found that there was a small area behind the door. A large room with four or five bookshelves in the room.

The bookshelves are full of thick ancient books. Although Du Lei is very interested in books, he also knows that there are priorities. It is not the time to read books. There are several work surfaces outside the bookshelves, which are placed on the countertops. There are glass bottles and reagent bottles of different sizes.

There are also some colorful powdery things or liquids in the bottle. These things are also important evidence for Du Lei’s conclusion of the “laboratory”. There is a bed on the other side of the room. It can be seen that someone has lived here for a long time. , But there is neither a person nor a bone on the bed.

“Interestingly, has anyone lived in the underground of the Ash Tower for a long time? Who is this…eh? There is still a passage here, and the wall has become…” Du Lei looked around, trying to find something valuable. Things come out.

But at this time, he discovered that there was another passage at the back of the room. This passage was very narrow and could only allow one person to pass through. At the same time, the passage was very high, reaching at least three meters, and both sides of the wall were It was neatly repaired with bricks.

This was different from the rough rough before. Du Lei walked to the passage and hesitated, then tried his position again.

“You can go through, but now I find more and more suspicious points, hello, what should we do next? Should we stop here, should we go home, or should we keep going? You also know that I am just a little bit too burdened. , If there is any emergency, I can’t cope with it.”

Du Lei instinctively sensed that the end of the passage was definitely not simple. Someone tried to build this underground passage and was definitely not used to pass the time for viewing. He began to ask for suggestions. The object of the question was undoubtedly the one in his arms. Egg, after all, there is no one else here.

“You’re here again, I know that asking you is for nothing. Anyway, I was injured, not you, right? Well, I know, just keep going. Fortunately, I’m still a kid. Fatty, I think there must be no way to squeeze it over, right?” Du Lei obviously felt burning.

This was Dan’s response to him. He immediately squeezed his body into this narrow passage. In fact, it didn’t take much effort to go through with his size, but it would be very difficult to change to a person like Tongshan.

“I have to remind you in advance that we are all on the same boat. We are all on the same boat, and we will lose everything. If something happens to me, you will have no good fruit. I will go forward according to your request. If something happens, Do you have to take care of me, do you know?” Du Lei was still a little uneasy.

The candle in his hand had already burned halfway, and he was strangely silent all around, only his footsteps could be heard.

He is not sure where he is going, it may be destruction, or it may be nether.
