"What's going on?" The three goddesses who followed the three mobile angels asked in surprise, pointing at the mobile angels hanging on the metal mirror.
"It may be some kind of force field, and I don't know, it must be a magnet anyway."
The metal is the main component in the material of the motorized angel, but the iron content should not be large enough to allow them to be absorbed on the mirror. Besides, the four motorized angels we came with are all relatively special models. The star alloy on the body is not mainly composed of iron, so the suction force should be smaller, so that thing is definitely not a magnet.
"Ling, go and see what is written on it." The four mobile angels must not be left alone, so I could only summon Ling to help me see. Vina and Peacock followed me and began to advance into the garden. Sparks stayed to protect Ling and the four mobile angels who had temporarily lost their ability to move.
While Ling was studying the metal plate, I carefully touched the end of the picture. In fact, the garden behind the arch was not very big, and at the end was the front wall of the bedroom, and the one in it was the bedroom gate.
The door of this bedroom does not use the design in the customs of the Olympus tribe. According to the design style of the Olympus tribe, the external doors of the temple building only have door frames and no door panels. Only door panels are used in rooms inside the building, and even the corridors and courtyards do not have doors. However, the door of this building has door panels and is quite thick. The dark wooden structure door panels are covered with green vines. If it weren't for the obvious door head on the top, it would be difficult for ordinary people to see that there was a door hidden here.
Because there are no windows on the front of the entire building, there is only such a door that is three meters high and two meters wide, if we want to enter, we can only consider this door besides passing through the wall.
I dare not violently dismantle if I am not sure whether the door is connected to the alarm device, because it may allow Zeus to come back early. And we don’t know where the core of the divine power of the Olympus tribe is. If Zeus cannot be found in a short time, it will be troublesome.
For safety, I had to open the door in a more conservative way. I first observed the entire door and confirmed that there was no mechanism that could be seen directly by the naked eye. Then I summoned Adina, Yeyue and Bailang, all three of them had special abilities. In addition to being useful in water, Adina's sonar also has a certain effect on physical matter. The principle is similar to ultrasonic flaw detection, which is to use the different reflectivity between different material structures to judge the faults, sections and various complex structures that are covered inside the object. Of course, because Adina is not a professional in doing this, the detection cannot be too accurate, it can only play an auxiliary role.
Yeyue's ability is different from Adina. She uses eyes. Adina's eyes have many other abilities in addition to its powerful attack ability, such as infrared vision. Yeyue can see infrared rays, and not just infrared rays. She can actually see many spectrums beyond the range of human vision, including x-rays. Modern people know what x-rays can do, so Yeyue actually has a certain ability to see perspective. Of course, like Adina. Her ability is not particularly strong, but the effect is indeed better than Adina's sonar. And the combination of the two can complement each other.
In the end, the function of Bailang is to prevent it. His hearing is super sharp, so he can replace the listener to a certain extent. If I activate the extra mechanism when I turn the door handle or other switches, he can hear it as soon as possible.
With these three people, there is basically no secret in the door in front of you. Of course, you still need to be careful when opening the door. After all, various magic switches and other things are also very troublesome things. If you don’t make a mistake, it will be more costly to trigger the alarm system.
As soon as Yeyue and Adina appeared, they began to check the door lock according to my instructions. After confirming the general structure of the door, they found a mechanism near the door handle, but it was not an alarm, but a defensive magic array.
This building is actually covered with an absolute barrier magic array. If someone triggers the mechanism, the absolute defense magic array will block the entire building for three hours. During this period, the house itself is almost invincible, so once that thing is activated, we can completely say goodbye to the core of the divine power of the Olympus tribe.
"Can you see the start switch?" I looked at Ye Yue nervously and asked.
Ye Yue put it on the door and looked carefully for a long time before pointing to a position and said, "There is a small mechanism here that can be pushed with magic. When turning the door handle, you must press this thing simultaneously to disconnect the connection between the rotating mechanism of the door handle and the mechanism, otherwise you will start the mechanism at the same time as you turn the handle."
"This is simple." I put the pepper out directly and asked her to try it. Sure enough, the little thing sealed in the door was not a problem for pepper. After confirming that the pepper was pressed down the mechanism, I held the door handle and turned it carefully for half a circle, then gently pushed it in. As the door shaft rotated, the situation in the room finally revealed.
This bedroom is called a bedroom, but in fact it is just like a small villa. It looks like there are only three floors in total, and the first floor is almost all the halls and storage rooms. After coming in, we asked a few smart-eared and eye-catching companions to scan the entire house. After confirming that there were no magic traps or other things, we started to search with confidence.
Because I have a lot of magic pets, this kind of work that requires manpower is not a problem at all. I released all the humanoid magic pets and started to help me find various locations in the room. I quickly checked all the rooms on the first floor.
The central hall is basically empty, and there is nothing to check. There is a row of small rooms on both sides of the hall. The row on the left seems to be a medicine storage room, with all kinds of messy high-end drugs and drug materials piled up. Since I have seen it, I naturally cannot leave these things alone and directly open the door of the earth and let the Kirin Warrior emptied everything in one breath.
In fact, in addition to the purpose of plundering materials, the most important thing is to facilitate our inspection. The room is full of piles, if there is any secret door or something, you can't see it. Therefore, you must first clear it to confirm that there are no secret passages or other things.
When the Kirin Warriors were carrying the medicines from the room on the left, the room on the right was also opened. This was also a warehouse, but the high-end equipment and some very precious magic materials were stored. Of course, this could not be left for Zeus. It was directly emptied by the Kirin Warriors who poured in.
After cleaning the two rooms, we did not find any hidden secret passages or anything else, so we started searching on the second floor.
When we cleared the floor below, Yeyue, Adina, La Jiao and Vina and others had already checked the upstairs. First, we confirmed that there were no mechanisms or other things. Twenty, we were afraid that there would be guards hidden upstairs. As a result, the guards were not found, there were no mechanisms, and there were no magic traps. But I think this is normal. No matter how cautious people are, they usually don’t put many mechanism traps in their homes. After all, this is where they live. If they are confused and make themselves humble, it would be called shooting themselves in the foot.
After cleaning the first floor, I took the humanoid magic pet to the second floor. Compared to the first floor, the second floor is obviously half smaller. There are three rooms on it. One of them is a bedroom, and the things inside are so simple that there is almost no need to check, because there is no cabinet except a bed. The other two rooms are side by side with the bedroom. The area here is not large, so there are naturally not many things. But in comparison, they are all boutiques. In other words, I am a good-looking artifact suit, and most players will go crazy when they see this room. Under the wall opposite the door, there are eight sets of light artifact suits, and although the attributes cannot be compared with my Dragon Soul suit. However, they are also artifact suits, unless they are the best Holy Spirit suits. Generally, the equipment cannot be compared with this artifact suit.
"It seems that Rose is going to be happy this time." Vina said after seeing the things in the room. Rose is not a secret in our guild. She has found so many high-end products this time. She is not happy and will be a ghost.
In fact, in addition to that row of artifact sets, there are many scattered artifacts in the room. Although they are not complete, their attributes are all exaggerated. Finally, I checked and found that even if the artifacts in this room were not counted as many as thirty pieces, and they were all high-quality. The most exaggerated thing here is the golden water bottle placed on a display stand in the middle of the room. At first glance, this thing seems to be a decoration, but when I picked it up, I was scared to the point that I almost threw it out.
This golden vase is actually called "The Pot of the Sea". I have heard of legends about this thing before, and more than one version. One of the legends says that Athena once sealed Poseidon in this bottle, while the other says that this bottle can hold a sea of water. However, according to a legend that Hephaestus accidentally talked about, the biggest possibility of this bottle is to be able to be filled into a god and after a period of time, the other party's power is separated for the owner of the bottle to absorb it.
Although the ability of the separation power to absorb to the owner does not seem to be closely related to the name of the Sea Pot, when I saw the attributes, I realized that this was indeed what Hephaestus said. It can seal a god in, then separate the other party's power, and finally store this power in the form of a liquid. Whoever drinks the liquid in it will get the power of the god. Of course, separation cannot separate all the power, and can only suck out half at most, but this is quite exaggerated.
"It's strange."
Seeing me dazed with the bottle, Vina next to me patted me and asked, "What's wrong?"
I shook my head and said, "The properties of this bottle say that the bottle is full, and I don't understand what it means. I just poured it twice but no liquid flowed out!"
"Full?" Vina thought of the full meaning in confusion, and then suddenly asked: "Will this full meaning not mean the power of output, but...?"
"Damn, no." I also thought of what Vina guessed, so I immediately turned the bottle upside down and aimed it at the ground, then instilled magic at the bottom of the bottle as mentioned in the attributes and slapped it hard three times. When I slapped the bottom of the bottle for the last time, I immediately saw a black shadow rolling out from the mouth of the bottle, then rolled two rounds before stopping and stretching out quickly.
"It's really someone!" Seeing the figure rolling out, we immediately surrounded it. The peacock was the first to squat beside the man, and then tentatively turned it over. But unfortunately, this guy was obviously dead. Although his body was soft, he was not the one who had just died, but had been dead for a long time. The corpse that had softened again after the zombie stage.
In fact, this person is not only dead, but also dies for a long time, because there is only a layer of skin left on his body besides bones. It is obvious that this bottle will continuously absorb the power of the sealed person. If the other party resists, it can suck out half. If the other party dies, it can slowly absorb the remaining half until it completely drains the other party. Of course, this ability has certain limitations. It is not possible to use it at any time.
"I don't know who is so unlucky, but he was trapped in this sea pot and turned into a mummy!" Peacock sighed as he looked at the corpse.
Vina stared at the body for a while and suddenly pointed at his hand and said, "Pretend his hand and see, he seems to be holding something."
When he heard Vina's words, the peacock immediately grabbed the other person's finger and opened it, and then he saw something. After pulling it out, he realized that it turned out to be a short silver stick. This thing is only four or five centimeters long, a little thinner than the little finger. There are three holes on it, which are located at different positions on the surface of the stick. The stick does not look solid, and there is also a mechanism. Moreover, the middle part of the stick is round, but one end is hexagonal and the other end is a triangle.
Peacock looked at the short stick for a long time but couldn't see anything, so she could only hand it over. After taking it, Vina didn't look closely and gave it to me directly. After I got this thing, I began to check it carefully. I just couldn't see it clearly from Peacock. It turned out that the surface of this thing was not only three holes, but seven holes. Before, because the others were blocked by Peacock's fingers, I didn't see it. In addition, the surface of this thing was not smooth, but there were many small protrusions. Although there seemed to be no rules for these protrusions, if you look closely, you will find that these small dots are actually regular, but the rules are very complicated, and you can't see what the specific rules are for the time being.
In addition to the protrusions and holes on the surface, this thing seems to be able to rotate in sections. In fact, this thing is divided into seven sections in total. The seven holes I saw before happened to be one for each section, and they can rotate between different sections, but this rotation method is not very fixed. Several sections can rotate forward, and the other sections can reverse, anyway, the regularity is very complicated.
"Can you tell what it is?" Vina asked me.
I frowned and thought for a while, nodded and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a part of some kind of magical mechanical structure, and a crucial part."
Peacock glanced at the corpse on the ground and said, "You have to hold it in order to die. Of course, this thing will not matter. But we don't know what this is for now?"
"We are not here to play detective games, no matter what it does? The key is to find the core of divine power first." I said out loud.
Peacock only realized this, but before she could say something, she heard Sha Yezi's voice coming from outside. "Master, I found something here."
"What?" I ran out while asking. After I arrived at the corridor, I saw Sha Yezi standing at the door of the room opposite, waving to us, so I quickly ran over.
There are three rooms on the second floor, among which the collection room and bedroom are located on one side of the corridor, and the other side is a room. It is obviously a study room, but it is different from the study room of the main gods I have seen between them. Zeus's study room obviously does not have much bookish atmosphere.
As I said before, the Olympus tribe is a strong war race. They have a lot of combat personnel, and their cultural atmosphere is relatively weak. In comparison, the main gods of the tribe, whether they are really talented or fake talented, would stuff some high-quality books into the study to show their cultural level. But Zeus's study... To be honest, if it weren't for the desk in the middle and the bookshelf behind, I would almost treat this as a hunting showroom.
As soon as the room enters the door, there is a large office desk that can be used as a bed. There is only a very narrow bookshelves behind the table, which are installed on a semicircular step higher than the ground. Apart from this bookshelves and desks, there are no cultural supplies in the room. The walls on both sides of the bookshelf are densely hung with their heads, most of which are strangely shaped. If it weren't for other things that could be seen as heads hanging on the walls like these strangely shaped things, you wouldn't even know what they were.
Some of these heads are monsters, some are monsters, and some are all human heads. Of course, this head just looks like a human, not necessarily a human. It is even certainly not a human. Zeus is willing to put these things out, which means that these are very meaningful goals. With Zeus's strength, I don't think killing someone has any meaning to him. If the other party is a big demon, an archangel or even a god, that's what it means to say. However, most of the differences between these human races and human races are reflected in the body. Except for the two more horns of demons than humans, the heads of most human races are no different from those of humans. There is only a row of heads left here, and it is really difficult to confirm the race without a body. Fortunately, these heads are not hung there barely. None of them are embedded in a shield-shaped wooden sign, and there are also written records on this wooden sign, which mainly describes the identity of the original owner of the head.
"I have to say that Zeus's psychology is really problematic." Vina said as she walked into the room and looked at the heads.
In fact, not only Vina, but I also think so. I can also understand the strange behaviors that Zeus did before that violated human ethics as a super pervert who has no shame. But now it seems that his problem is not just lust. At least I think most perverts don’t have the habit of collecting human heads.
"Sha Yezi, what do you want me to see?" After roughly glanced at those heads, I turned my attention back to Sha Yezi.
When Sha Yezi heard my question, she did not answer it. Instead, she walked directly to the row of heads on the left side of the room, and then reached out to grab the head of one of the humanoid creatures. This was the head of a very beautiful woman, with a very cool facial expression. Her long red hair and a little flashing, she looked very beautiful. I doubted what purpose Zeus had for collecting this head. However, Sha Yezi didn't let me think for too long, and she directly disguised the lower half of the beautiful head.
Then he reached in and pressed the beauty's upper jaw gently, and there was a click. A sound suddenly came from the wall behind the desk, and then a circle of golden lines suddenly appeared on the wall that was originally tightly slit. These lines formed a door frame. They just surrounded the entire bookshelf, and then the semicircular staircase under the bookshelf actually rotated, and the bookshelf also turned into the wall and turned out the other side originally hidden behind the wall.
"This is……?"
"It seems to be some kind of secret key to the mechanism." I quickly walked around the desk and walked onto the semicircular staircase that was originally the bookshelf. The thing that was flipped out now has a circle of picture frames with ornate decorations outside, and the middle part is a metal plate. The metal plate is covered with various lines, which looks quite complicated. Whenever the lines cross, there must be a hole at the intersection point, which seems to be able to stuff something into it.
After staring at the holes for a while, I suddenly reacted and quickly took out the metal stick I had just obtained from my body, and then gestured at the holes on the wall. It was just the size, but maybe because I didn't choose the right hole, I couldn't insert it.
"What you should be in your hand is the key, but how do we crack it so complicated?" asked Vina.
Vina's words made me unable to answer because I was also worried about the thing. This thing looked small in area, only one meter high and less than sixty centimeters wide, but the surface lines were as many as thirty, and the intersection points on it were even more than three digits. Don't say I don't know what rules this thing was opened according to. Even if I know, it is very likely to make a mistake when it is opened. After all, there is no number on the dense holes, so it is difficult to find it at once.
"That complex thing should not be able to be opened by Zeus." Xinghuo's voice suddenly came in from the door. Four mobile angels were following her, obviously they had solved the problem of the suction cup. At this time, Xinghuo walked towards us and said: "According to the information we received before, Zeus is a savage without culture. He could not understand such a complex mechanism, so I think even if this thing is a mechanism that opens a secret, it is definitely not the secret of the core of divine power."
"Yes, yes, yes." Peacock also said: "This stick was turned out from that bottle. Since the stick was caught by the corpse in the bottle, it means that Zeus had not discovered it before, which means that Zeus could not actually open the place."
"But isn't it strange that there is a door in Zeus' room that he can't open even himself?" asked Wiener.
I thought about it and said, "Maybe it is really that way. After all, Zeus is not the founder of the Olympus tribe. This place was not built by Zeus. I think this mechanism should have existed before Zeus got it, and Zeus did not obtain the position of the Olympus tribe as the God King through regular channels, so he may not be able to inherit all the inheritance of the Olympus tribe. Maybe this thing is sealed with something that Zeus has never obtained."
"Then I don't think we need to waste time on this. The core of divine power is what we need to pay attention to." Vina said.
I nodded and said, "No need to worry about this for now, everyone will find the core of divine power."
Before I could finish my speech, I heard Ling's voice saying: "Do you think the core of divine power is underground?"
As Ling's voice, we had to look at each other and found that Ling was standing on the desk at this time, and a magic array lit up on the desk. Although I was not a specialist in magic patterns and didn't know much about these things, the magic pattern on the desk was so simple that even I understood it. This magic array is a division magic, which is a common method of disguise used by the secret door. The reason why the secret door is exposed is that the door crack is not tight and is seen by others. However, this magic can temporarily glue the two originally divided objects together without leaving any gaps. As long as the magic power is input to activate the magic array, the two objects will separate again. Therefore, this magic is most commonly used to disguise the door crack of the secret door. At this time, such a magic array appeared on the table under Ling's feet, which means that the circle in the middle of the desk should be separated from the desk, so it is likely to be a secret passage.
"Try activate it." Vina said.
I quickly grabbed Ling and said, "Let the dart go down first, at least he will run away more easily if he is in danger."
Ling nodded and stepped a step to retreat outside the circle, and then I summoned the dart out and put it inside the circle. Then Ling tapped the edge of the magic circle with a staff, and the entire magic circle suddenly lit up. Then he saw the table where the dart was standing suddenly vibrated and rose up, and then he began to rotate and descend. He gradually sank into the table and left a round hole on the table. Seeing this, I quickly jumped to the table and looked down from the entrance, and saw a vertical well below. It was always down.
"No." Peacock shouted: "This is the second floor. Where does this hole lead to? Didn't you see such a passage on the first floor just now?"
Before I could answer one of the mobile angels, I said first: "Comparison by size. The location below is exactly the location of the column in the first floor lobby. This passage should pass through the first floor lobby from the middle of the column and go deep into the ground."
"No wonder we didn't find the basement entrance on the first floor!"
The disc we were riding on as we talked on was already down a hundred meters deep, and it seemed that it was not yet at the end. Later, for the sake of easy observation, I even asked Xiao Chun to throw a row of suspended lighting techniques down to illuminate the entire passage.
The passage finally stretched downward for nearly three or four kilometers before reaching the end, and the message from the darts indicated that there was a small room below with no guards.
Since we know that the lower part is safe, we naturally have to go in and take a look. However, the rotating platform has already been lowered, so we have to go down by ourselves. Fortunately, this passage is straight down, so we just need to jump down directly. Although the height of three or four kilometers is very high, we can slow down by supporting the passage walls on both sides. The passage walls of this passage are not smooth and not wide. Even ordinary people with better physical strength can climb up the passage wall with their bare hands, let alone the senior personnel like us in the game?
Leaving a few Kirin warriors on it, putting away other magic pets, I quickly got down to the bottom of the cave, and Vina and the others and the mobile angel also followed.
It's like what a dart is seen below. It's a stone room, which looks at at most twenty square meters. The four walls around the room are all natural rocks, which seem to be carved out from the mountain. Judging from the vertical descending passage, our current location should actually be considered below Mount Olympus.
Although the four walls of the room are all rocks, there is a door on one of the walls. This door is metal and has a very rust surface, but the door handle is quite bright. Obviously, people often use this handle, so they grind off the rust.
Because we didn't know what was behind the door, we didn't make a sound after we got down. There were no rookies present, and we all knew that we needed to be careful at this time. It was not until everyone was ready that Vina signaled me to open the door. I nodded and compared the door to one of the mobile angels. The mobile angel immediately walked to the door and grabbed the door handle. Then the other three mobile angels took out their weapons and stood on the other side of the door with me and prepared to rush in at any time.
I reached out and started the countdown with gestures. When I retracted my last finger and clenched my fist, the mobile angel holding the door handle immediately pulled out the somewhat narrow metal door out at a relatively slow speed. The three mobile angels of Lin Wai and I quickly moved up and stared at the movement behind the door.
To be continued...
