"That's right, isn't it?"

In front of a cracked boulder, Beora pointed at the dark cave and asked.

"If there is nothing wrong with the map given by the guild, this is the right place." Wu Yue held up a map and looked left and right before confirming.

"Then what should I say? Go in directly, or do some reconnaissance first?"

"No need. The previous investigators have already explored the path for us. At least there is no danger in the first section of the road." Sophia said.

Even the cautious Sophia said so, and the other three had nothing to say.

Wuyue took the lead and jumped down first, followed closely by Sophia, then Beora, and finally Kelulu.

The scene below was completely beyond imagination. I thought it looked like an ordinary cave, but I didn't expect that I could see a road as soon as I got there, and it was man-made.

Nonsense, otherwise why would it be called a ruin?

"This style..." Sophia said to herself.

"What's wrong, Sophia? Is there anything wrong?" Wuyue asked.

"Nothing, I just feel like I've seen this architectural style before."

Beola caught Kelulu who jumped down from above, put it gently on the ground, and said, "Oh, I can't see why. Maybe all these underground ruins in the whole continent have the same style?"

"Maybe, have you brought anything?"

"It has been prepared for a long time, one for each person, no more." Beora took out four tubes from her bag and distributed them to the three of them.

"Inject magic power and it will light up for a while. If it feels dark, just inject it again."

Everyone did so.

After everyone injected their magic power, the tube in their hands lit up.

It's just that different colors appear depending on each person's magic power.

Sophia's is blue, Kelulu's is purple, Beora's is orange, and Wuyue's is white.

"It turns out that Beora has magic power." Kelulu said.

"I'm starting to wonder how you usually look at me. Don't underestimate the alchemist..." The corner of Beora's mouth twitched.

With a little practice, anyone can use magic.

It's just that everyone's ability in this area is different due to their occupation.

"Be careful on the next road." After saying that, Sophia took the lead and walked deeper.

When we first entered, the road was extremely narrow and four people could only move forward in a single file.

But as you go deeper, the passage becomes wider and wider.

Generally, this situation indicates that there is a relatively large space ahead.

Finally, when the passage was large enough to accommodate four people walking side by side, a huge space appeared in front of everyone.

That's a tall door. How big is it?

It is several times larger than the city gate of Melbourne.

Huge man-made city gate, what does this mean?

Bai Ye knew that the things inside this ruins were definitely not simple.

"Is this an underground city?" Beora was surprised by the magnificent city gate.

"Ke Lulu, can you see the architectural style of the city gate?" Sophia asked Ke Lulu.

"No, I can't tell. Maybe it's a style I haven't seen in the book." Ke Lulu shrugged.

"It's also possible that it's not recorded in the book..."

Bai Ye carefully looked at the surrounding structures.

"Wuyue, have you noticed that this door doesn't seem to be a city gate, but more like the door to the balcony on the top of the castle."

"Master, is it true? Even the balcony door is so big, so how big must the city gate be?"

Wuyue couldn't believe what Bai Ye said.

It is located underground so close to the city of Mel, and there are no records in the kingdom. This means that this underground city existed here long before the establishment of the former Shire Empire, or even earlier.

How long will the Shire Empire stand in the west of the continent? It must have been at least three thousand years...

When did the Dragon Clan disappear from the mainland? About two thousand years ago.

Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that there are relics from the dragon era in this ruins...

Maybe it's a treasure, maybe it's a monster...

"Be careful." Bai Ye warned.

......

Entering the door, there is another dark passage.

Sophia observed the rusty wall lamps hanging on the walls on both sides of the passage: "This lamp is used to hold candles, not the oil lamps commonly used in castles now."

"Candles, don't you have to change them many times a day?" Beora asked.

"Not necessarily, not all candles are the short-lived ones used by civilians."

"Blood wax?" Ke Lulu said.

While others were discussing the lights on the wall, Wuyue followed the footprints on the ground, which were the footprints of the previous investigator, and moved forward to the end of the road.

"The footprints turned back here..." Bai Ye said.

Ahead is a hall, and the outline of the curved double staircase can be vaguely seen.

Based on previous guesses, this hall should be the living room of the castle owner?

"Life Perception"

Bai Ye turns on the magic of perception.

"Good, there are no other living things in the hall."

"Sense of the Dead"

Switch to another magic.

"Wu Yue, there is a dense reaction of undead ahead." Bai Ye reminded.

Concentrated on both sides of the hall, just behind the chandelier that fell in the middle, it is difficult to see without magic.

Turning off the perception magic, Wuyue looked in the direction indicated by Bai Ye.

Where the reaction occurred, there were two rows of soldiers lined up neatly.

No, armor would be more appropriate.

"The undead hiding in the armor..."

Bai Ye could imagine what would happen if he approached them rashly.

"How's it going, Wu Yue? What did you find?" Sophia and the other three finally ended the conversation and caught up with Wu Yue.

"Look there." Wuyue pointed behind the chandelier.

"Is there anything unusual about the two rows of armor?"

"The undead are controlling it."

"The evil spirit of the castle?"

Various spirits will gradually gather in some abandoned castles, and I don’t know why.

"Can you get around them?"

"I don't know, mainly because I don't know what their detection range is. Maybe... you can go up from the stairs on both sides."

"If there are other ways, try to take them and try to reduce unnecessary fights." Sophia said.

A few pieces of armor are nothing, they can be taken care of in a few or two.

But the content of the commission is investigation, not combat.

So, the four of them walked lightly into the hall, and then walked upstairs along the wall.

The armors were still motionless, and it seemed that the detection range was not very wide.

Climbing to the upper level, you can see the seat of the castle owner. The cushion has been completely rotted, but you can still see a little bit of its former appearance.

"It's bigger than any king's throne on the continent today," Sophia said.

"Big" sometimes speaks volumes.

What is now absolutely certain is that this underground city belongs to a very ancient and powerful empire...
