RNP Chapter 380 He Broke Again
Chapter 380 He Broke Again
In the underground ruins, Lei crawled out of the small tent and came to the corner of the ruins.
After glancing at both sides with his peripheral vision and making sure that no one was paying attention to him, Lei started to release the water towards the corner.
Just then, Li came to Lei with a water cup in one hand and a toothbrush in his mouth.
“…Uncle, you’re a little angry.”
"Bah... You're the one who's angry. I'm suffering from the aftereffects of my transformation!"
Lei's body was fused with many fragments of monsters, causing serious problems for his body.
Li Gang wanted to say that he could help with the treatment, but Lei changed the subject directly.
"I have long since adapted to the current situation. I care more about this relic than this!"
The excavation team funded by the king has been in the ruins for a week. During this week, Li and Lei conducted a comprehensive exploration of the ruins.
After their exploration, they have reached a conclusion.
The vampires came here to dig up the ruins and received no special care.
"Those vampires are really stubborn. They actually used the lives of their own people to clear their way."
"To that patriarch, other vampires are just his tools."
After getting up early and washing up, Lilith came to the two of them with the latest report.
Ever since she participated in the excavation of the ruins as an official, Lilith's image has been changing.
Lilith now has shed her previous image of the girl next door.
She wore round-toed shoes with short heels and changed her pants to more slim-fitting black leggings.
Lilith, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, is now a mature beauty that makes everyone fall in love with her.
"The soldiers discovered a new passage. Two people fell unconscious as soon as they entered. Their current condition is unknown."
"Oh? Have you discovered a new passage?"
The exploration team continued to expand downwards along the path dug by the vampires and has gained a lot in the past two days.
Li also confirmed the fact that the vampires risked their lives to clear the way.
"Let the soldiers withdraw. I will go over and explore the way myself."
After breakfast, Li came to the new passage mentioned in the report.
In front of me is a dark cave, and inside the cave is a stone passage.
There are smooth carvings and some remaining murals on these stones, proving that the passage was built by ancient people.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed that the ancient ruins could have been preserved until now."
Li has read a lot of history books in this world in the past two years. Although the magicians here recorded things very one-sidedly, Li still obtained a lot of information from those ancient books.
Among them, there were many records of earthquakes. In the royal capital, there were two recorded incidents of houses collapsing.
Fortunately, the buildings in this world are generally not high, and both earthquakes occurred during the day, so the recorded casualties were negligible.
But many buildings in the royal capital needed to be renovated after the earthquake.
"These ancient ruins have withstood the erosion of time and natural disasters. It seems that the ancients built them just for us to discover them."
A building of such a large scale hidden underground cannot be a living space.
Li currently has three speculations about the function of this relic.
"Is it a temple, a shelter for a special period, or something else..."
Li muttered to himself, but his hands did not stop moving.
Li took a candlestick from the soldier, lit the candle, and placed a metal cover on it.
The candlestick emitting a faint light was pushed into the passage by Li using magic.
After half a minute, the light went out.
"Lei, call a few mages who can use wind magic. This passage needs ventilation."
Li found out the reason why the soldier fell into a coma before.
Soldiers who entered the new passages would pass out because there was no air circulation.
People who don't understand the principles of physics can easily mistake this situation for an evil curse.
Li feels that the fact that the ruins are labeled as dangerous has a lot to do with the lack of human knowledge in this world.
After the wind magician was called in, the stale, evil wind that blew out of the passage almost suffocated everyone present.
Li covered his head helplessly and instructed these guys to be more careful.
After using iron sheets to build a barrel and directing the airflow to the vents, order was finally restored at the scene.
After letting the magician continue to blow air into the passage, Li stepped forward.
Five steps. As the fifth step was taken, a mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the passage, and Li instantly felt a huge force coming from under his feet.
Li Xiang retracted his foot, but the mechanism in the ancient passage was activated with astonishing momentum.
With a clang, the ground below lifted up violently and fit perfectly with the top.
Li, who was caught in the middle, became a piece of meat patty without any suspense.
Lei and Lilith felt scared when they saw Li turned into a meat pie.
Just now, the two of them wanted to explore the passage with Li, but were rejected by Li.
Now it seems that Li refused very well!
Lilith walked forward and used a shovel to collect the plums bit by bit, piling them into a pile. It took her half an hour to regain her human form.
Li had lunch and stood in front of the passage again after lunch.
The area of the ground where the trap was located had been marked with paint, and Li was now trying to reach ten steps.
Li moved forward, and his every move affected the minds of everyone outside.
The tenth step was taken. This time there was no mechanical sound, but some tiny holes appeared on Li's head.
After these small holes appeared, nothing happened. Li Ti was extremely vigilant, but ended up spending half a day fighting wits and courage with the air.
“…This time, there seems to be no problem.”
As soon as Li finished speaking, he felt a weak electric current flowing through his body.
He seemed to be electrocuted.
"Lee, are you okay?"
“…I seem to be in trouble!”
Li recalled the feeling of the electric current flowing through him, and looked up at the hole above his head. A faint smell of oil drifted around his nose.
"It looks like a fire trap, but the fuel in the trap is gone."
The trap had not been successfully activated, which was a relief.
But everyone's tension became even stronger.
Although anyone who enters and steps on the trap can be resurrected by Li, if it weren't for Li, God knows how many lives this passage would have claimed.
"Those vampires are really brave. God knows how much they suffered in the areas they explored before."
Li complained as he took a step forward.
As a result, the next moment, Li disappeared from everyone's sight.
After exchanging glances with Lei, Lilith dispersed into a group of bats and flew to the place where Li disappeared to check the situation.
Li's miserable condition was reflected in the bats' small red bean-like eyes.
Li fell into the bottom of a pit of astonishing depth, filled with sharp spikes.
Li was shot in the head by a spike, and his death was so tragic that it broke the sky.
Lilith felt a little nauseous and quickly flew back out of the passage.
Lei was a little worried when he saw this.
"Lilith, what happened to Li?"
"He's broken again, let's prepare dinner first~"
