Chapter 772: Entering the Underground Ruins

Although he felt that this Dettlaff was an extremely dangerous person, Leo had no intention of getting rid of him. He thought he had a chance to get to know him through Regier. After all, just a short conversation just now was not enough.

Let him find out the secret of the opponent's evolution.

Sylvia left the garden villa at noon, accompanied by Fringilla Wego. Judging from Sylvia's expression, she seemed to have gotten what she wanted.

After retrieving the weapons from those knights, Sylvia and Leo did not return to the Knights' headquarters, but went to Fringilla Vigo's residence in Beauclair Town. Sylvia still had some

The matter needs to be discussed with Fringilla, and Leo also needs to borrow the passage from Fringilla's residence to enter the underground ruins.

Fringilla also conducted some explorations into the ruins of the underground Elf Kingdom, but she did not go deep into it. Although the possible Elf treasures were also attractive to her, she was more rational and would definitely not take advantage of them for a little profit.

Pay with your own life.

After arriving at Fringilla's residence, Fringilla directly led the two of them into her study room on the first floor. Then, without shying away from the two of them, she activated the mechanism and opened the passage under a table.

He followed the three of them and walked down to an empty basement. There was only one well in the basement. The wellhead was covered by an iron plate and several iron chains locked the iron plate.

Fringilla summoned the key, took off the iron chain, and lifted the iron plate, revealing a straight downward hole. There were also some downward ladders specially placed on the wall of the hole, but now these ladders have been damaged.

Judging from the shape of the damage, it was not damaged due to decay, but was damaged by someone.

Leo didn't say too much nonsense. He took off all the armor and weapons of the Abyss Walker and handed them to Sylvia. Then he gave Sylvia a few instructions and jumped directly into the hole.

The person fell down for more than ten meters before landing.

After landing, Leo shouted upwards, asking them to close the entrance and exit again, and then walked towards the place he had planned.

Although this place is buried underground, it does not mean that it is very narrow. Maybe it was filled with powerful supernatural power when it was buried, or maybe it was a special building structure. In short, the buried soil did not completely destroy these ruins.

The building is covered up, and there are still a large number of passages that can be used here. Some of these passages are the porches of previous buildings, and some are the gaps in some collapsed houses. In short, these passages are enough for a tall man like Leo to walk easily.

In addition, although this place is underground, it does not mean that it is completely dark and nothing can be seen. In fact, not only does a fluorescent thing grow here, but the stones used in these elven ruins also emit a faint fluorescent light.

This kind of fluorescence is not conspicuous when there is moonlight, firelight and other light outside, but in a dark environment, it appears extremely bright. With Leo's eyesight, it can only be seen by fluorescence without any supernatural power.

You can easily see things around you clearly.

Leo was traveling very fast, and the target he chose was a hall that had not completely collapsed. It was also the first station chosen by the previous explorers, because from there there would be four separate roads leading to the four underground ruins.

In different places, three of the roads have been thoroughly explored, ending in a closed ruins. And judging from the information provided by Regier, the ruins at the ends of the three roads should have become the lair of the mutated vampires.

Originally, if Dettlaff had not appeared, Leo might have gone to the three ruins first to warm up with those mutated vampires, but now that he has agreed to Dettlaff, there is no need for him to be troublesome, provided that the other party did not come to him first.

Trouble.

After walking for about ten minutes through a passage formed between the ruins of a house, Leo came to the hall.

After entering the hall, Leo didn't look at anything else at all. He looked up directly at the top of the hall. He saw more than twenty monsters with fleshy wings hanging upside down on the top of the hall. These monsters were also where Leo came in.

When he looked over at Leo, he happened to meet Leo's eyes.

However, there was no conflict between the two. After taking a look at Leo, these monsters retracted their heads into their wings, seemingly asleep, and had no intention of attacking Leo.

Leo could feel that the hearts of these monsters were full of bloodthirsty and violence. When they looked at him, their eyes seemed to be examining prey. They almost fell from the sky and attacked Leo, but before these monsters were ready

When attacking, they were stopped by an invisible force, and then they curled up with the desire to kill.

These monsters are not sleeping now, they are suppressing their killing instinct.

Leo knew that these mutated vampires were probably controlled by Dettlaff, which also confirmed his previous guess that Dettlaff did control these mutated vampires, and he had some kind of connection with these mutated vampires, which caused him not to need

With direct contact with these mutant vampires, he can also control them through his mind. He can even see the things seen in the eyes of these mutant vampires through this spiritual connection. Otherwise, he would not have been able to discover that the person coming was Leo in such a timely manner.

Stopped the follow-up actions of the mutated vampires.

Since those mutated vampires didn't take action, Leo naturally couldn't kill them and walked into the hall.

At this time, Leo saw a dozen mummies lying in the corner of the hall. Judging from the clothes of these mummies, they should have come from the civilian area of ​​​​Bauclair. It seemed that they should be the food caught by these mutated vampires.

Leo did not rush into the unexplored ruins passage, but walked towards the pile of mummies and reached out to carefully examine several of them.

After his inspection, he found that not only the blood on the mummies had been drained, but also all body fluids such as bone marrow had been drained. The entire corpse was so dry that it could be used as firewood.

However, what is more interesting is that these mummies have some mutations. It seems that after all the fluids in the body are drained out of the corpse, the body undergoes some kind of mutation. However, this mutation was later interrupted. The death of all mummies

It's not because the body fluids were drained away, but because their necks were broken.

"It's really weird!" Leo muttered while patting the dust on his hands after inspecting the mummies.

No wonder he felt so incredible, because this mummy was still alive and mutating slowly even after the spinal cord, brain, blood and other body fluids were completely removed. However, the mutation was stopped because the neck was twisted.

He also died completely. This situation completely violated the biological knowledge he had learned before.

He had also thought that the mutation of the mummy was due to some extraordinary power, but his spiritual network, let alone the mummy, did not find any extraordinary power even in the mutated vampires.

After discovering these mutant vampires, Leo had already checked the situation of these mutant vampires. He found that these mutant vampires could be said to have gone to an extreme. They seemed to put all their energy into the power of their own blood, and

He has completely given up other extraordinary powers, unlike Regier and Dettlaff who still possess the energy fluctuations of extraordinary powers.

In addition, the mutant vampires also went astray in their development of blood power, which eventually caused their bodies to completely and irreversibly mutate. This also gave Leo a warning to research and study the power of his own blood.

Develop more carefully.

After finding nothing useful on these mummies, Leo stood up and walked around the hall again. He found several items left by his predecessors, which should have been left by other adventurers who explored the underground ruins.

When they came down, they also saw two sets of corpses. Judging from the condition of the corpses, they should have died of cannibalism. Leo also found a very exquisite piece of jewelry in the cracks between the stones under the corpses.

This exquisite piece of jewelry seems to have been made by elves. The style is very exquisite and luxurious. According to the relevant information collected by Leo during this period, it can be concluded that if the owner of this piece of jewelry is not a big noble of the Elf Kingdom, then he

It is very likely that it belongs to the royal family of the Elf Kingdom.

Leo then searched through the torn clothes on the two corpses, and soon found something about the identity of the corpses.

While collecting information about the underground elven ruins, Leo also collected information about the adventurers who had explored the ruins in the past. Among these adventurers who tried to make a fortune by exploring the ruins and finding treasures, there was an adventurer named Wine Barrel Dent who was very special.

Amazing, two-thirds of the map provided by Fringilla came from his exploration.

This barrel Dent is also the person most promising to explore the ruins of the underground elf kingdom. Unfortunately, after he went down to the ruins for the last time, he never came out again. Many people thought that he died deep in the ruins.

, and there were many explorers who died with him, and one of the explorers was the youngest son of the former Grand Duke of Toussaint. This also led to the fact that the Principality of Toussaint never organized any large-scale exploration again.

Team.

One of the two sets of bones at Leo's feet is that of Barrel Dent. Because Barrel Dent is a very devout believer of the goddess Meriteri, he wears a large number of goddess ornaments on his body, and one of them is

There are a large number of ornaments of the goddess Meriteri on the corpse.

It seems that this barrel Dent has actually explored the lower level of the ruins, and returned to the initial camp. He can return to the ground after walking a short distance, but unfortunately he died here in the end.

As for why he died, Leo thinks it may have something to do with the elf ornament in his hand? Either the survivor who came out with the barrel Dent wanted to snatch the elf ornaments and attacked the barrel Dent, or it was the barrel Dent.

Wanting to monopolize the secrets and treasures he discovered in the underground elven ruins, he attacked his companions.

No matter what the reason was, they eventually buried their bodies here, and the people who came here in the future were probably focused on the elven ruins at the lower level. They didn't pay any attention to the corpses here, and naturally they didn't find the two corpses hidden.

's secret.

Although he discovered the bones of Barrel Dent and knew that Barrel Dent had explored the lower ruins and found some relics of the Elf Kingdom there, Leo was not happy about it.

, because his main purpose of coming here is to find a danger strong enough to stimulate his blood power.

If the level of danger in the Elf Ruins is such that even an ordinary explorer can enter and exit safely, then even if he also finds the Elf's treasure, his trip will be in vain.

After thinking for a while, Leo decided to continue walking. Since he was already here, he would go down and take a look, maybe he could encounter some surprises.

So, following the instructions on the map in his memory, he found the passage leading deeper into the ruins and walked directly in.

After Leo entered the passage, the mutant vampires stretched their bodies from the crouched state, and then stared at the entrance of the passage with pairs of blood-red eyes. It seemed that Delav's control had disappeared at this moment, and their instincts were driving them.

They chased after them to catch their prey, but at the same time they also hesitated for some unknown reasons. In the end, they did not catch up, but continued to hang on the top of the hall, enduring the instinct to kill.

The passage leading to the lower ruins was not very easy to walk. Due to some special reasons, some places even collapsed, forcing Leo to open up a new path. Fortunately, the collapsed areas were not very thick, and Leo was able to quickly

Open it again.

About an hour later, Leo had reached the end of this passage, and this end was an underground cavity larger than the previous hall. Judging from the situation here, it should have been a garden before, but with the

The entire city fell into this, but there was a special power in this garden that protected it. The falling stones and soil were held up in the air, eventually forming a dome.

When entering this underground cave, Leo immediately felt the powerful interference energy contained around him. This interference energy could not only interfere with the spiritual network, but even interfere with the spiritual energy and any other extraordinary power in his body. The only

The difference is just the strength of the interference effect.

Among all the extraordinary powers, spiritual energy is the least disturbed, while all divine marks are the most disturbed. Divine marks like the webweaver's mark have been almost completely abolished.

"Is this an anti-magic force field?" Leo quickly identified the details of this power.

Leo learned from Fringilla that there is a very magical metal in this world called anti-magic metal. This metal can absorb the mana of all warlocks. Even the most powerful warlocks are handcuffed and shackled by this metal.
