Chapter 484: Visible but intangible

"Lord, the dimensions of the space are wrong." A kobold named Quint approached Gavin and said.

He is the leader of this kobold construction team. He is a fifth-level kobold warlock. He not only has the ability to perfect repair spells, but he is also an excellent cave digger and builder.

"Search, search one by one, search wall by wall, sew them one by one, and sew them for me. Don't let go of any suspicious places." Gavin waved his hand.

The kobold said there was something wrong with the size of the space, so there must be a hidden secret room.

Their perception of space is very different from humans. They don't need to measure. They only need their naked eyes to tell whether there are differences in the layout of the two-layer structure, just like birds can tell whether a narrow gap is suitable for them to fly through.

In this aspect, these kobolds are professionals. They took out a small sharp hammer directly from their own kobold-specific tool kit, knocked it from time to time, and climbed up.

These kobolds can use their ears to tell how thick the wall is, whether there are other caves behind it, how big the space is, etc.

Although this is also an innate ability, it is more specialized and requires special training and rich experience to be put to good use.

The kobolds in front of them were undoubtedly experts in this field, and within a few minutes they had gained something. With a creaking sound, a secret door was opened.

Without waiting for the kobolds to greet them, Gavin rushed over immediately, "This is..."

What you entered was a rectangular standard room, but there were rusty shackles and ropes on the walls, and there was an iron chair fixed in place inside with dusty leather ropes on it. You could tell at a glance that it was not normal. A shelf full of supplies and tools.

"This is a torture chamber. Why is there such a secret room under a hotel?" Anna, who was following Gavin, asked with a face full of surprise.

Before Gavin could answer, there was another creaking sound not far away, and a new secret door opened, and two shriveled corpses, one large and one small, fell out.

Anna trotted up, checked the two corpses skillfully, and said in a positive tone: "The two deceased are both women. The older one is about thirty years old, and the younger one is fourteen or fifteen years old. They both starved to death. They died about three years ago, probably after the Laughing Bandit Tavern was abandoned. Sir, do you think they were the Weeping Witches? The sound they made when they were crying and wailing before they died made the villagers think it was haunted, or maybe, Are they directly transformed into angry ghosts? "

"It's not them." Gavin shook his head and said, "Before they died, the Weeping Witch had already appeared, and you saw the phantom with your own eyes last night. Did you feel any aura of death in her? Or Negative energy? Just two corpses that happened to die in vain. It seems that the former owner of the Laughing Bandit Hotel is not as clean as the villagers of Amphail Village think. He is probably involved in robbing money and sex. "

"There's another room over here." Another kobold shouted.

Just next to this secret prison room, another secret room was opened.

This room is the largest, the sum of the two secret rooms in front. There is a huge solid wood bed in the middle, covered with fan gauze curtains. The surrounding walls are covered with various tapestries and oil paintings.

Anna just peeked into the room, and like a frightened rabbit, she jumped out with a blush on her face and said: "How could...how...how could...someone arranged this... Shameless room, Mr. Gavin, this...this...these filthy things are all...all...used by the devil to lead people to corruption. They should not exist in the world, they should...should...all of them Burn."

Due to shyness and nervousness, the old habit of stammering not only happened, but became much more serious than usual.

Those tapestries and oil paintings all depict extremely explicit love affairs between men and women. Gavin, a experienced and fierce man, felt embarrassed, let alone a young priest who had never experienced such a battle. I felt like my whole body was unclean and about to burn, because the images in the tapestry in the room kept rolling through my mind.

Gai Wen said sternly: "I have nothing to do with filth and evil. I am waiting outside. Let me go in and see if there is anything more evil hidden inside? I feel magic fluctuations inside."

"Sir, you...you...be careful. If...if there is...a problem, call us immediately." Anna hesitated outside the door for a long time, not having the nerve to follow him.

Gavin, with a critical spirit, began to examine these seductive and decadent tapestries and paintings.

It has to be said that the person who decorated this room has absolutely first-class aesthetic taste. All the decorations are not only erotic but also beautiful. It is estimated that in the hands of some special enthusiasts, they should be able to sell for a good price.

Gavin's eyes finally fell on an oil painting, which was a portrait of a lady. Among the paintings in the whole room, she was definitely the most conservative one. At least her clothes were intact, but she was also the most alluring one. Vice, because its painter has perfectly interpreted the hazy beauty, completely arousing people's desire to peep, and they can't wait to get into the painting and peek at the beautiful scenery behind the hazy gauze mist.

The longer I stared at the portrait, the stronger my desire for voyeurism became.

This is not just my own emotions, but also has magical factors.

It is a magical oil painting that has the ability to stir up the dark desires in people's hearts.

It was not until Gavin rolled it up quickly that the feeling of enchantment completely disappeared. Without thinking, he threw it into the portable dimensional cave. Not only it, but all other tapestries and paintings were collected by him.

He was not taking it for himself, but was prepared to study and criticize them in depth with a critical attitude in the future.

Then he conducted a carpet search of the entire room, leaving no corner untouched. He found a lot of various sex toys, but his real goal was nowhere to be found.

"Treasure, treasure, Lord, treasure has been found." The excited barking of the dog-headed people came from outside.

Dog-headed people are also very sensitive to wealth and are full of greed.

But their greed is very interesting. They don't take it for themselves, but present it to their masters, especially the dragon masters, in exchange for their praise, which is the best reward.

Gavin naturally knew their virtues and praised them generously: "You did a great job. When we return to the territory, I will apply for a bottle of Dragon Soul Strengthening Potion for you."

The Dragon Soul Strengthening Potion is a new Kobold Strengthening Potion recently developed by Dragon Oak Territory.

As the name suggests, this strengthening potion uses the dragon soul of a giant dragon.

In terms of the physical body, opening the dragon is already the limit of the Kobold bloodline strengthening. Even if the dragon blood potion is made with a more powerful dragon, it only increases the success rate of the Kobold opening the dragon and reduces the required professional level. For every age stage of the dragon blood used in the dragon blood potion, the professional level requirement of the Kobold will be reduced by one level.

For example, the dragon blood potion made with the dragon blood of the young copper dragon Awinsa requires at least eight professional levels to have a chance to open the dragon, while the young red dragon Roderick only needs seven, and the young red dragon only needs five.

After the dragon is opened, if you want to go further in this aspect, you must let your soul also start to dragonize and get closer to the dragon.

This can be obtained slowly by serving the dragon at close range and being influenced by it.

You can also take a shortcut - directly take the dragon soul strengthening potion containing the dragon soul fragments.

This potion can only be refined in one way - slaying the dragon.

The number of refining is also related to the maximum health of the dragon. Basically, it can only be done for one bottle of health.

A young red dragon refined more than 200 bottles in total, which sounds like a lot, but in the dragon rubber territory with 70,000 or 80,000 dog-headed people, it is not enough to share.

Moreover, there is no upper limit for taking this thing. The more you take, the better. The effect is simple and clear. Not only can you make yourself more and more like a dragon, but you can also directly increase the number of daily uses of spell-like abilities. After taking multiple bottles, whether there are other effects remains to be further studied. It is now the highest level of merit exchange.

At present, only a dozen bottles have been exchanged and distributed to different dog-headed people.

"Thank you, Lord." These dog-headed people thanked them repeatedly. For them, the value of a bottle of dragon soul strengthening potion is far higher than these treasures.

"Don't thank me, this is the reward you deserve." Gavin smiled and replied, and began to count the treasure of the former innkeeper.

In the end, he returned disappointed. This was a pile of scattered worldly treasures. It was roughly estimated that there were no less than 50,000 gold coins. For an ordinary family, it was indeed a considerable fortune.

But for Gavin, it was obviously not enough.

Compared with the actions he made here, only harvesting this little treasure was equivalent to losing even his pants.

This was the last secret room they found. After that, Gavin led this group of dog-headed men to sweep back and forth here three or four times, and there was no new discovery.

Gavin did not give up, but fell into deep thought. There must be something they overlooked in this matter. After all, he had directly contacted the Weeping Witch, and her existence was the biggest doubt.

Speaking of which, if the things were really so easy to find, they would not have waited for him to arrive, and they would have been found by the former innkeeper long ago.

Anna muttered on the side: "Could it be that the room is not hidden in the material plane at all? But in the shadow plane or the spirit world? It is difficult to get anything if we only look for one side."

"Impossible, I have the Eye of Truth." Gavin shook his head and rejected it, "If such a room really exists, I should be able to see it directly."

"The Eye of Truth is not omnipotent. It can only see through illusions, not real objects. What if it is blocked by real objects?" Anna refuted without thinking.

"Yes! Why didn't I think of it earlier?" Gavin turned over and hugged Anna, bit her round face hard and said, "You are really my lucky star, all of you come here, help me move this big bed."

Anna was a little confused by the sneak attack, and stayed there for a long time without reacting.

All the things in the basement were completely cleared out by Gavin and his team, except for the solid wood bed in the fun room, which was too large and too heavy, occupying half of the room, and was directly assembled there.

In addition, Gavin's attention was previously attracted by those unique portraits, so he ignored this matter - or rather, their role was to divert attention.

Gavin directly cast the bionics bull power, giant transformation, and overclocking on himself, and with the external bonus on the dragon tooth gloves, he directly accumulated his strength to 25 points, and those dog-headed people also activated the giant transformation.

With a concerted effort, the huge wooden bed was dragged open with a gurgle.

"Quent." Gavin greeted the leading kobold.

The kobold immediately gave up dragging, jumped in quickly, picked up his small pointed hammer, and started tapping the ground bit by bit.

The kobold nodded towards Gavin and said, "It's hollow. There's a secret passage underneath. It's not a secret door. It was sealed with stone shaping techniques. It's at least one meter and a half thick."

"This is easy to handle." Gavin directly took out ten dragon vibration bombs from the portable dimensional cave and handed them to him, "Directional blasting, blow it up for me."

"No... no... no need. I haven't started using my spell slots today yet. Just hand it... hand it... to me." Anna was attracted by the movement here, with a round face and a smile on her face. Like a ripe big apple, red in color, seeing Gavin eager to use violence, he hurriedly spoke.

"You see, I was so impatient that I actually forgot about this incident. Okay, you try first to see if you can open a door. If it doesn't work, then blast again." Gavin couldn't help but pat his forehead, and unexpectedly, he let He was a little confused, after all, this was related to his path to advancement.

"Okay." Anna climbed over the big bed and walked to the kobold warlock. She tried hard to calm down and focus on casting spells, but her mind kept wandering involuntarily, thinking about Gavin's bite just now. Especially because the room they were in now was special, and the scenes from the previous oil paintings began to run out involuntarily.

Wandering around, the heroes and heroines inside no longer looked like what they had seen before, but became themselves and Mr. Gavin.

This made her whole body burn. She tried several times but failed to cast the spell.

"What? Is there a problem?" Gavin asked with concern, completely unaware that everything was caused by his excitement.

"No...no...no." Anna quickly recited a spell, which was not for stone shaping, but for treating minor injuries.

In order to cure her own spell-casting defects, she had refined this spell many times, as if it was engraved in her bones. The more nervous she became, the smoother it became. Then she cast it directly on herself. The feeling of countless ants crawling instantly filled her whole body. It lasted for several seconds before completely dissipating.

Her magical healing spell was used on herself. Although there were no terrible side effects, it was not very comfortable either.

The discomfort this time actually helped a lot, diverting her attention completely and taking the opportunity to prepare the stone shaping technique.

As it began to synchronize with the boulders underground, the stone slab seemed to come alive and began to grow upward and to both sides.

This door-sealing stone slab was thick enough. Anna used four stone-shaping techniques to barely open a passage that could only be reached by bending down. It was a dark passage diagonally downwards, the kind that could be seen all the way through at a glance. The end was empty, nothing.

At least in the eyes of ordinary people, this is indeed the case.

But in Gavin's eyes, with the Eye of Reality open, the end of the tunnel was shrouded in fog, and in the middle of the fog there was a small cabin looming there. Even through the fog, Gavin seemed to be able to feel the small cabin. The unusualness of the wooden house, and the powerful magical waves emanating from it.

found it.

The goal you are looking for is right there.

With just one glance, he was 100% sure.

But it's one thing to be able to see, and another thing entirely to want to go in.

That cabin is in the etheric plane.

Can be seen but cannot be touched.

Even Gavin didn't have a good idea for a while.

Transforming himself into a transformed spirit body that can enter the etheric plane is a seventh-level spell. No one under his command knows how to use it, and it is also a personal spell that can only be cast on himself.

Being able to bring other people into the etheric plane to travel with the spirit world is a ninth-level spell. Not to mention that Gavin doesn't know spellcasters of this level. Even if he did, he wouldn't dare to bring them here to help him. If you do this, who knows if the other party will turn around and kill you, and then take the treasure inside as your own. After all, it is a magic book inherited from Netheril, and the temptation is big enough.

The flash technique of the third ring, because of the characteristic of flashing back and forth between the etheric plane and the material plane, also gives people the ability to enter the etheric plane, but the duration is too short. The principle of flash technique is to stay in the etheric plane. After one round (six seconds), it will return to the material plane for one round, and then jump to the etheric plane, and so on.

Once this spell is cast, it will jump back and forth uncontrollably.

And the layout of this layout maker is very cunning. The material plane in the overlapping area with the etheric plane where the cabin is located is a huge rock.

Even if you use the flash technique to advance a certain distance in the etheric plane for six seconds, once you flash back to the material plane, you will be faced with a huge boulder.

Although you will not be directly embedded in the boulder, you will be forcibly excluded. Every one and a half meters outside, it will cause 1D6 damage.

The most important thing is that you have done nothing in the etheric plane. When you enter again, you will enter the original position again, and the cabin is at least twenty meters inside the boulder.

As for the method of cutting directly on the boulder to reach the cabin, it is also not feasible.

The cabin is in its current location because there is a plane anchor point on the boulder. If this anchor point is accidentally destroyed, the cabin may disappear directly into the etheric plane and disappear without a trace. If you want to find it again without clear guidance, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
