Chapter 344 Artifact? This metal plate? What can it be used for?

He looked around to make sure no one noticed them before continuing: "The information I found out is that there are three floors of warehouses here.

What we are currently on is only the first outermost layer, which stores some relatively common materials. "

"What about the second and third floors? What good things are there?" Lan Luoluo asked curiously.

Han Yu smiled mysteriously and said: "The second floor stores higher-grade rare metals and some core components of soul guides, and the third floor..." He paused deliberately and observed Lan Luoluo's expression. .

As expected, Lan Luoluo's appetite was whetted, and he asked eagerly: "What happened to the third floor? Tell me quickly!"

Han Yu lowered his voice and said word for word: "What is stored on the third floor is the top secret of the Sun and Moon Empire - soul guidance technology blueprints and some powerful experimental soul guidance devices!"

"Hiss—" Lan Luoluo took a breath, and she finally understood why Han Yu said there was so much danger here.

"Fortunately, those Soul Saint-level guardians have been transferred to the palace, otherwise we might not be able to get in today." Han Yu said with lingering fear.

"Then let's go down now?" Lan Luoluo was eager to give it a try and wanted to rush to the third floor to find out.

"Don't worry, Li Chong can only open the warehouse on the second floor. The third floor requires another key." Han Yu pointed to the front and said, "Let's go to the second floor first. There should be something there." There’s a lot of good stuff.”

"Wait!" Lan Luoluo suddenly remembered something and asked: "How come such an important underground warehouse is not heavily guarded? Can those mechanisms stop the enemy?"

Han Yu explained: "Do you think those mechanisms are just decorations? The soul guide mechanisms in this warehouse are armed to the teeth and interlocked with each other. Not even a fly can fly in!"

He pointed to the top of his head and continued: "In addition to the mechanisms on the ground, there are also powerful soul guidance formations arranged above. Once someone breaks in, an alarm will be issued immediately. At that time, the guards of the entire palace will rush over and intervene. Wings can’t escape!”

Lan Luoluo was frightened when she heard this, and then she realized the danger of this operation.

"Moreover, the organization here is very complicated. Even the internal personnel only know the situation in the area they are responsible for. It is impossible for others to fully grasp it." Han Yu added, "This is also an important reason why we can sneak in."

"What about Li Chong? How does he know so much?" Lan Luoluo asked.

Han Yu explained: "Li Chong is the steward here after all. He naturally knows more than others, but he only knows part of it. Even if he wants to enter other areas, he needs other people's keys to cooperate."

"That's it." Lan Luoluo suddenly realized.

"Okay, stop talking and hurry up." Han Yu urged, "We have to find the entrance to the second floor as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the greater the risk of exposure."

Under the leadership of Han Yu, the three of them moved forward cautiously, keeping their mental power shared at all times in order to discover hidden mechanisms in time.

"Be careful, pay attention to the bricks on the ground. You can only step on the darker ones. If you encounter the lighter ones, just jump over." Han Yu reminded in a low voice while observing the surrounding environment.

"Also, if there are red edges on the boxes on both sides, they must not be closer than one meter, otherwise the alarm will be triggered, and they may even be attacked by soul guides."

The three of them walked carefully, walking on thin ice, through the intricate passages. Fortunately, there was no danger, and they finally found the entrance to the second floor behind a pile of huge metal boxes.

It was a thicker metal door, engraved with complex runes and emitting a faint cold light.

"This is it." Han Yu pointed to the keyhole on the door and said, "The keyhole of this door is actually five-pointed. It seems that five keys are needed to open it."

But Li Chong only had one key. The other four keys were all taken away by the strong men who left earlier.

"Han Yu, what should we do now?" Lan Luoluo's voice trembled slightly, revealing a hint of uneasiness.

She looked around and glanced at the closed metal door. On the door, the complicated keyholes and combination locks were like chasms, blocking their way.

"This door looks so complicated. The keyhole and combination lock are so sophisticated. Can we really open it?" She murmured to herself, her tone full of worry.

Lan Luoluo took a deep breath and tried to calm down her nervous emotions. She turned to look at the faint light and shadow on her shoulders and asked softly: "Han Yu, do we really want to take the risk of opening this door? Will it? Is it too dangerous? How about we retreat first? We have already collected a lot of rare metals, which is enough for us."

She paused and continued: "Look, we now have more than thirty storage soul guides, which are almost fully installed, as well as the large starlight sapphire breast shield. We have already gained a lot."

Han Yu noticed Lan Luoluo's uneasiness, and his soft light flickered slightly, as if comforting the worried girl. "Luoluo, don't worry, everything is as expected." His voice was soft but firm, like a tranquilizer, slowly soothing the anxiety in Lan Luoluo's heart.

“Actually, I had expected that we would encounter this situation, and I had never tried to open this door before, just to avoid trouble as much as possible.

But now it seems that we have to face this challenge. "

Han Yu paused, with a hint of confidence in his tone, "Don't worry, this door won't be a problem for me, we will definitely be able to open it."

Qiu'er on the side had been listening to their conversation quietly, her sharp eyes never leaving the metal door, as if she was thinking about something.

Hearing Han Yu's words, she nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "If we attack this door with all our strength, we should have a chance to force it open."

She paused, turned her eyes to the side, as if looking at someone, and continued: "If we add his help, the possibility of success will be even greater."

Qiu'er didn't say clearly who "he" was, but anyone who knew her well knew who the "he" in her mouth was referring to.

Han Yu naturally understood what she meant. His mental strength fluctuated slightly, and he obviously thought of something, but in the end he did not say it.

"However," Qiu'er's voice brought everyone's thoughts back. She frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her tone, "Forcibly breaking open the door will inevitably trigger the defense mechanism here. When the time comes, I don't know what will happen. How powerful the soul guide attack is, can you calculate it?"

Han Yu smiled bitterly. Although he was now in a spiritual body, he still couldn't help but feel his scalp numb when he heard Qiu'er's words, as if he had seen some terrible scene.

He said helplessly: "Qiu'er, can you not always think of using violence to solve problems? We have other ways. Unless it is a last resort, it is better not to force yourself."

He paused, with a hint of pleading in his tone: "Besides, even if you have to force your way in, it's not time for you to take action yet!"

As he spoke, Han Yu's spiritual body suddenly became illusory, and then, a green light separated from his body and floated in front of the three women.

It was a carving knife that was all green. The carving knife itself had a halo of light, full of life, like a finely carved work of art.

Seeing the carving knife, Qiu'er's originally calm eyes suddenly condensed, and her eyes were fixed on the carving knife, as if she had seen something incredible, she exclaimed in surprise: "This... this is the treasure of the living beings." gold?!"

Han Yu was also stunned. Apart from the late Holy Law God of the Undead and the Scourge of the Undead, Elex, this was the first time he heard someone say the words "Gold of Living Things".

Qiu'er's eyes became extremely sharp, like two sharp swords piercing Han Yu's heart. She asked in a cold tone: "Where did you get this gold of life?"

Han Yu felt the coldness in Qiu'er's tone, and felt a slight shiver in his heart, but he did not panic, but calmly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I got this carving knife by chance at an auction. "

He paused and continued: "The original name of this carving knife was 'Spirit-Eating Carving Knife'. After I got it, I found that it had some evil curses artificially attached to it, so I wiped out all those curses. In addition, it restored its original appearance and became what it is now.”

Han Yu looked at Qiu'er and said in a sincere tone: "Since you know the gold of life, you should also be able to feel its effect, right?"

A trace of complicated emotions flashed through Qiu'er's eyes. She lowered her eyes slightly, and her long eyelashes covered the light in her eyes, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.

She nodded slightly, expressing her agreement with Han Yu's statement.

Then, she stretched out her slender white fingers and gently pinched the Life Watching Blade handed over by Han Yu. This carving knife is completely green and exudes a faint fluorescence, as if there is life flowing in it.

Qiu'er looked at the carving knife carefully, feeling the powerful power contained in it, and couldn't help but smile.

"My Golden Dragon Spear can swallow the vitality of living creatures and absorb the essence to strengthen itself." Qiu'er's voice was clear and sweet, as beautiful as beads falling on a jade plate.

“And this carving knife made of condensed living gold should be able to swallow the life force of objects.

She paused and continued, "I really didn't expect that there would be such a large piece of living gold." It is a rare metal that is truly nurtured by heaven and earth and is almost impossible to copy! "

While talking, Qiuer suddenly moved. She flipped her wrist, and the Life Watching Blade in her hand turned into a green lightning bolt, piercing the door next to her with lightning speed.

There was only a crisp sound of "dang", and the solid door was penetrated half an inch by this seemingly light carving knife!

An even more bizarre scene occurred.

A faint green light spread from the tip of the Life Watch Blade, rippling on the door like water waves.

The door, which was originally full of simplicity and heavy aura, immediately became a layer of faint gray under this layer of green light, as if it had lost its vitality.

In sharp contrast, the green light of the Life Watching Blade itself has become stronger and stronger, like a greedy glutton, devouring the life force in the gate.

Seeing this, Qiu'er couldn't help but smile.

She held the handle of the blade with one hand and poured her soul power into the Life Watching Blade, guiding the green light emanating from the blade. With the other hand, she held her golden dragon gun and held the gun barrel tightly. Stick it on your right hand.

The green light that was stripped out of the gate rushed into the Golden Dragon Spear as if it was attracted by something.

The golden dragon gun suddenly blazed with golden light, like a dazzling sun, shining golden light around dozens of meters around. Even Qiu'er's figure was blurred by the golden light.

Han Yu was in a spiritual body at this time, and his perception was more acute than usual. He clearly felt that the door was withering and decaying at a speed visible to the naked eye, while the aura of the Golden Dragon Spear continued to rise, becoming more and more powerful.

Seeing this scene, Han Yu couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Are you absorbing the vitality of the gate through the Life Watch Blade and then injecting it into the Golden Dragon Spear? How can it still be like this?"

Qiu'er glanced sideways at Han Yu, with a faint smile on her lips, and said: "It's so empty that there is a treasure mountain without even realizing it. Such a large piece of gold of living beings is not a simple treasure, it can be called a treasure. It’s an artifact.”

Han Yu was stunned for a moment and asked: "Sacred weapon? This metal plate? What can it be used for?"

Qiu'er shook her head and explained: "You are still a little short-sighted.

The most magical thing about this living gold is not that it gives metal some special properties like other treasures of heaven and earth, but that it can make metal evolve, do you understand? evolution! "

"Evolution?" This was the first time Han Yu heard this statement, and he was immediately interested, "How to evolve?"

Qiu'er explained patiently: "To put it simply, any metal, as long as it is placed together with the gold of living beings, will slowly absorb its breath, thus improving its own quality.

Just like your dagger, if it is warmed with living gold for a period of time, its sharpness and toughness will be greatly improved. "

Han Yu suddenly realized: "So that's it, this is magical! No wonder, I always thought this metal plate was extraordinary, but I couldn't tell what was special about it."

Qiu'er continued: "So, this living gold has a more appropriate title, called the 'Mother of Metals'. Any metal is like a child in front of it, and can absorb nutrients from it and continue to grow. ”

Han Yu nodded and asked: "But, what does this have to do with my Golden Dragon Spear?"

Qiuer explained: "Although this living gold is magical, it also has a flaw, that is, although it can extract the vitality of any metal, it itself cannot absorb these solid vitalities. If not guided, these vitalities will only It's a pity to scatter it in the air in vain." (End of this chapter)
