Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 258 Fighting (VIII)
Galina and Mike nodded.

"Why is Karl waving to the Arcane Hall? I think the Sinking Square is more likely to reveal a treasure," Galina asked while walking, sorting out her thoughts, and asked with some doubts after a while.

"Probably intuition," Carl said bluntly.

"I always thought you relied on precise calculations and analysis to determine your actions. It seems that I have never seen through you," Galina sighed, and Mike nodded accordingly.

"No!" Carl narrowed his eyes and stopped, thinking that the map indicated a shortcut leading to the underground arcane hall. He began to search carefully from left to right, thinking in his heart that the loss of unit time could not smooth out the short-cut path. road.

"Not exactly, sometimes intuition is part of the analysis," Carl continued with a smile, while casting detection magic, trying to find the hidden secret door.

Galina and Mike also began to search carefully, but at the same time she retorted: "I never made a mistake, but it doesn't mean I won't make mistakes in the future!"

"Actually, I pulled you back just now because I sensed danger," Carl said lightly.

Galina opened her mouth, recalling the scene just now, her face was a little red, and she didn't speak, but just started to scout around.

On the other side, in the dark sewer system of an abandoned urban settlement.

A thief from the Black Robe Association slammed the dagger on the stone wall of the sewer. After beating for a while, he felt that it was boring. He shook his head and said, "Lord Yandi, there has been a fallout outside. A high-level legendary hunting spider, maybe we can kill it, why don't we go back and try?"

Seeing that Emperor Yan didn't respond, he continued: "Look, we have already explored, this is a sewer at all, we are in the drainage system of this city, no one will hide treasure in the sewer at all."

"That's not necessarily true," Emperor Yan said indifferently, "What's more, I'm no match for that damned demon hunting spider."

The thief curled his lips and shook his head disapprovingly, "No, you have to think that way, with everyone's help, we will definitely kill this guy, there must be good things on this guy!"

"Tch, good things are your real goal," said a black-robed spell caster beside him with a blank expression.

"Nonsense! This guy is full of treasures. Aren't we here for the treasures? What kind of treasure is not a treasure," the thief jumped out excitedly.

"Besides," he went on, "we're wasting our time here, aren't we?"

A ranger walking at the front of the team suddenly turned his head, showing an impatient expression, and said disdainfully: "You guys are annoying, please keep your voice low, you don't want to lure that demon hunting spider over, and I also I don't know what else will be attracted, who can guarantee that there won't be a second demon hunting spider!"

The thief shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, I'm a minority again, I won't say anything, pretend I haven't said anything."

"The purpose of our visit is not the treasure, but one of the treasures." Emperor Yan shook his head and said in a low and hoarse voice: "The most important thing is one of the treasures, and that thing is the owner's purpose. A Highborne mage's legacy costing us so much? Don't be kidding!"

Then he frowned, lowered his voice and said to Ranger: "Did you find anything?"

The human ranger replied, "I can feel the wind, yes, the moving wind, and I think there should be an exit nearby."

Emperor Yan nodded.

The shortcut to the Arcane Hall is an underground passage full of spider webs. Carl, Galina and Mike walked through this dirty underground passage for more than 10 minutes before reaching the exit on the other side of the passage, pushing Opening the stone door that was almost exactly the same as before, they came to a small room full of dust.

Carl looked at the dusty desktop in the room, on which lay some blackened parchment and magic potions that were definitely expired.

"This should be the Arcane Hall, it's not a big room." Galina carefully checked the surroundings, opened several boxes, and found some worthless gems and low-level spell scrolls.

"Beware of monsters," Carl warned in a low voice.

Galina nodded, came to the door of the small room, pulled out the scimitar from her waist with one hand, and gently stretched out the other hand towards the rotten door with only a few wooden bars left.

"Crash!" The moment Galina touched the door, the wooden door turned into powder. Galina was startled and took a step back.

"It seems that the history is really long," Carl raised his eyebrows, and using the transformation staff, he summoned two bobcats to explore the way ahead.

The three walked through several small rooms and a long corridor. Except for a few bats, they didn't encounter any enemies. However, there were many openable boxes in these rooms, which allowed them to search for many low-level spell scrolls. and attribute gems.

After the corridor is a hall. The hall is pitch black. Carl first let two bobcats climb in, then waved the three light balls above his head, floated up and down in the hall, and checked if there was anything unusual inside.

It is a beautiful hall, at least it was once, although now its interior is full of dust and the corners are covered with cobwebs, but from the finely carved reliefs and the texture of the floor, it can be seen that It used to be brilliant.

There are many bookshelves in the hall, some of which have collapsed due to rot, and the seemingly precious books are scattered all over the place, and there are more than a dozen weird statues around the hall. These statues are very delicate, but they are very weird. It looks like a monster with wings.

"What's that?" Karl pushed Galina beside him with his hand, and pointed to the statues, and the latter immediately pulled out the bow and arrow in his hand and opened it.

There was a strange red light in the eyes of the statues, they suddenly came alive, then screamed, spread their wings, and flew towards the ceiling of the hall.

"Gargoyles," Carl sighed.

Galina loosened her fingers, and in the body of a gargoyle that was flying towards the two pieces of Ding Ru, the gargoyle let out a scream, and fell off the stone base after screaming, its wings twitched twice and died.

The gargoyles circled around the ceiling, then kept uttering sharp calls, and rushed towards the three of them. Karl noticed that their claws were very sharp, and it was definitely not a good idea to touch them.

He stretched out his right hand and released a blast of flames upwards, violently knocking the three gargoyles flying, and the remaining gargoyles dodged to the sides fiercely, attacking from both left and right directions.
