Chapter 547 Classic Trap

Although it is always said that Nimia does not have much adventure experience, in fact, Aoerdai’s adventure experience is not much compared with the experienced adventurers.

Aoerdai did travel frequently in the past, but she only did things like investigating the local ecology and minerals, and rarely entered the ruins. Even if she did, it was only to help Ivan to do archaeology together, but those ruins had been cleaned up by adventurers a long time ago, which is completely different from the current "drinking the first soup".

In addition, even if it is a learned wizard, it is impossible to know everything. There are specialties in the profession.

Aoerdai has no idea how exaggerated it is to say that the dwarfs' creations are strong and durable. In terms of refinement and beauty, the dwarves are indeed not good, but in terms of durability, the dwarfs' mechanisms will not fail in another ten thousand years.

Nimia obviously knows this. She has been busy dismantling the traps on the road, but Aoerdai obviously doesn't know. She thought that even if there were traps, they must be broken after so long.

As for why Nimia didn't remind Aoerdai...

Who knew that she, a wizard who always behaved very reliable, would suddenly be so naughty!

It was not until they heard the sound of gears running that the three of them had a bad feeling at the same time.

—— Clank!

—— Rumble!

The loud noise of heavy objects falling to the ground and the low noise of rolling came from behind. The three of them turned their heads and saw a huge rolling stone almost touching the ceiling rushing towards them.

"It's a rolling stone! There is such an old-fashioned trap!"

"It's because it's old-fashioned that it's classic and effective!"

"What else are you talking about? Run!"

There is definitely no place to hide. All they can do now is run forward as fast as they can.

"Professor Alday, please, please don't touch around next time, okay?"

"I thought the trap had already failed, and the Lord didn't remind me."

Yes, Li Chengxi, who was paying attention to their progress, did not remind them. After all, Li Chengxi couldn't predict several seconds in advance that someone who was walking well would suddenly have to touch the mechanism on the wall...

"Look at the good side, at least this is not the ruins of the elves."

"Why?"

"Because if it is the ruins of the elves, you will find that the rolling stones have enchantments, not only will they turn, but they will even fly up and hit you in the face."

"..."

The elves are so cruel!

Because the rolling stones rushed in from behind, the three of them had no time to care whether there were traps on the ground. After two sentences, Alday felt as if she had stepped on a slightly concave floor.

For a moment, the stone slabs on the walls on both sides opened, revealing rows of dense shooting holes, and countless cold stars flew out of the shooting holes.

Nimia and Zora quickly protected the left and right sides of Orday, and drew their weapons. With the sound of ding-dong, a row of blue darts that were obviously poisoned were knocked down by them.

Skilled in martial arts can indeed shoot down arrows with weapons, but traps are not just one round, it seems endless.

Orday raised her staff at this time:

"Group protection arrows!"

A layer of rotating halo lit up on the three people, and all the darts that touched them fell to the floor as if they were swept away by the wind, leaving sparks.

At least the dart trap should not pose any threat to them for the time being, but just as they breathed a sigh of relief, they heard the sound of stones moving again.

Less than five meters in front of the three people, the floor suddenly opened to the left and right, revealing a dark hole, with steel needles and iron spikes underneath.

If they fell down, they would definitely be stabbed to the bone.

When Nimia and Aoerdai saw the trap, their first reaction was to slow down, but Zora knew that they couldn't slow down at this time, after all, there were rolling stones chasing them from behind, and if they slowed down, they would be crushed into meat patties.

So Zora went around Aoerdai and Nimia, holding them by the waist and dragging them to run, not only did he not slow down, but he accelerated.

Seeing the opportunity, Zora shouted:

"Power up!"

Although Zora was already Li Chengxi's priest, he had not yet given up his skills as a warrior. His energy gathered in his legs, and at the same time, Zora stepped on the edge of the trap, holding the two people with both hands and jumped hard.

As the saying goes, great strength can make bricks fly. Even though he was dragging two people, even though Zora was still wearing armor, the three of them were immediately dragged up by brute force and easily crossed the trap.

But maybe Zora was too strong, and the three of them immediately fell into rolling gourds when they landed.

But even so, the three of them absolutely could not stop, and they immediately got up and continued to run after rolling on the ground twice.

Because they saw that the rolling stone chasing behind them made a loud "clang" sound when it rolled over the trap pit. Although the spikes in the trap pit were broken, the rolling stone also passed the trap pit and continued to chase.

It should be said that it was fortunate that Zora was a priest, otherwise, with Alde's previously fractured foot, she would have to walk with crutches, let alone run.

Maybe because of the trap pit blocking it, the speed of the rolling stone could not catch up with the three people for a while, but the three people had no chance to get rid of the rolling stone. If there was another trap in front of them, causing the speed of the three people to slow down, it would not be good news.

Fortunately, this did not happen. The three people ran all the way and immediately saw a crossroads in front of them.

"Which way to go?"

"Left! No, go to the right!"

"Which way is it!"

"Right! Just now the king told us to go to the right!"

The three rushed to the intersection like a gust of wind, but you have to know that whether it is two legs or four wheels, it is not possible to turn without slowing down.

But the three people now have rolling stones behind their buttocks, and there is no condition to slow down. They can only run all the way and rush into the right fork like drifting.

"Oh!"

"My waist!"

"Professor, don't lie on me, my chest hurts!"

As expected, all three of them hit the wall while drifting through the corner.

It was just as Alde said. Fortunately, this was not the remains of the elves. The rolling stone rubbed the side of the three people and rumbled through the intersection, and soon disappeared in the darkness in front.

The three people who suspected that their chests were flattened, their old waists were about to break, and their backs hurt just breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up to see a huge stone slab falling rapidly from the ceiling, and immediately rolled and crawled to avoid it.

With a loud bang, the huge stone slab blocked their retreat like a gate.

Aoerdai rubbed his chest and stood up to touch the stone slab:

"This is the obsidian gate. It may be because we triggered too many mechanisms and the automatic defense system was activated."

This is like a fire gate that will automatically drop when a fire occurs. When multiple traps are activated in the ruins of the dwarves, they will think that there is an invasion by foreign enemies, so they will drop the gate to protect important areas.

Obsidian has a very high resistance to magic, which means that it is difficult to blast it open with magic. Generally, the targets used by wizards for spell experiments are made of obsidian.

It is almost impossible to return by the original route, but on the other hand, this side of the gate just leads to the so-called important area in the ruins.

It's not bad.

Just as he was about to continue walking forward, Zora, who stood up while rubbing his old waist, was stunned for a moment, and then said to the other two:

"The king asked us to camp and rest, and he will tell us where it is safe."

Aoerdai took out his pocket watch and found that it was already past five in the afternoon.

"It turns out that we have been here for a whole day. I was wondering why I am so tired."

You just found out?
