Chapter 363 The Monitor’s Treasure
Chapter 363·The Monitor’s Treasure
Chu Xuan was actually at the bottom of this underground lake. When he came up, his body was filled with a rich layer of rotten death.
"I met a big guy down there. It wasn't very strong, but it was more cumbersome to deal with. So it took a little more time. That should be the ancestor of the Water Watcher, but now it and its lineage are no longer a problem. .”
Chu Xuan was wearing his scholar's attire as always. The death energy on his body also quickly dissipated in the air. It was obvious that his actual experience and what he said were definitely not on the same level.
"Uh... is it the big octopus in the original work?" Zheng Zha happily seized this opportunity to change the subject.
"I feel like it's a bit like a sea monster in Extreme Cold... Well, speaking of it, is it possible for us to code in a world view like Extreme Cold in the future? It feels like now, this kind of monster is not available to us. How difficult it is.”
"The premise is that it is a normal 'extreme cold'." Chu Xuan didn't mind his nonsense. Responded to him naturally. "For now, we have not visited even a reincarnation world without any plot changes. The Indian and Arctic teams also provided similar information. We can be sure that we can also encounter low-difficulty horror movies. on, and when I hit it, the difficulty of it was definitely going to be adapted to the level of power that we had at the time."
Unless, the Central Continent team suffered a major setback before that, so that it was cleared from the team evaluation.
"Oh..." Zheng Zha scratched his head. Anyway, his goal had been achieved. "Then...is there anything special about these octopuses below?"
"Nothing special." Chu Xuan glanced past him and looked at Jiang Yu. "Except for their strong vitality, these monsters basically have nothing to praise. However, it is precisely because their vitality is too strong that I had to completely erase their bodies to prevent them from interfering with the Balrog battlefield. possibility."
Averted gaze, complete erasure - good.
Jiang Yu came to listen as if it was true - he would not get a response if he asked anyway.
"Thank you for clearing up the interference factors, Chu Xuan." Jiang Yu nodded. I didn’t explore this unnecessary issue. "However, since you, Chu Xuan, have shared your experience with us, I think what you gain from down here is definitely more than just a victory... Perhaps, you still have some information or benefits that you want to share with us? "
"Indeed." Chu Xuan nodded. Beside him, a golden apple projected a physical projection of the cave structure in the water. It is a deep area located 20,000 meters underwater. The strong water pressure can theoretically kill all living creatures born on the earth, let alone leave air. But a place like The Lord of the Rings is obviously not very geophysical.
"When I was cleaning up those...big octopuses, I found their lair. At the same time, it can also be regarded as a treasure."
"Since the fall of the Kingdom of Moria, there are many precious treasures left by the dwarves who were killed and devoured by the Watchers. They should all be there. And... maybe there are more than just the dwarves' belongings there."
……………………
The reincarnations reached the bottom of the water.
Physical phenomena are indeed a problem, but they are not a big problem. Except for the two newcomers who were thrown into the Tower of Turin and stared at each other in the temporary protective barrier, the water pressure did not affect the mobility of the reincarnation members of the Central Continent team at all.
They just dived normally, and they sensed that the water pressure around them increased enough to crush steel. Then... a huge rock palace located under the water appeared in front of the reincarnations. Some unknown force cut off the water bodies in that area, turning them into a hemispherical dome outside the rock palace, thus filling the dome with breathable but extremely stagnant compressed air.
The rock palace is a cave. It does not look like a completely natural thing. And Jiang Yu landed lightly on the surface filled with compressed air. As far as the eye can see, it looks like the ruins of a lost ancient civilization.
He now felt that what Chu Xuan had just talked about through the topic of 'extreme cold' had some meaning.
And when his eyes passed over the ruins of the rock palace in front of him, he found nothing of note - there were traces of war and destruction everywhere, a large part of which originated from Chu Xuan's created weapons. . It was certain that if there had ever been anything inconvenient for people to see here, they would have been destroyed before Chu Xuan came up.
But... there may not be any residue left.
Jiang Yu tilted her head and turned her gaze to one of the most inspired members of the team. And he was also not surprised to see Zhu Wen's brows frown slightly when she saw the ruins in front of her.
"It feels a bit... strange." She glanced at the ruined ruins with some disgust. "It's greasy...it feels like some disgusting seafood."
"It's a big octopus after all." Zheng Zha sat down next to her and looked at these strange ruins casually. "It's normal to feel this way...but I don't seem to have it...what is that?"
He saw some shiny things hidden in the ruins.
Among the members present, there was someone who knew the entities of those shining things faster than him.
"It's... Mithril." The person who spoke was Cheng Xiao. When valuable treasures appeared in a relatively close area, there was not much difference between the dragon veins in the east and the dragonborn in the west - he didn't even need to go there to know that there was abundant mithril there. Unlike the mithril ingots that were carefully refined by the dwarves in the mines of Moria, what appeared in the eyes of the reincarnations was something more rough.
He stretched out his hand and stirred the wind in the compressed atmosphere restricted by the deep sea dome. And as large swathes of stone fragments were swept away into the open area, some kind of dazzling and bright light instantly took away the attention of the reincarnations.
That's really... a great fortune. In the Hobbit movie, the fire dragon Smaug's daze and wonder when he saw the giant golden statue appeared simultaneously in the eyes of the reincarnations at this moment.
That is mithril - dense mithril precipitated from high-purity mineral veins. A patch of frosty white extends from this section of the line of sight to the other end. Even if the purity is not absolutely high, the mithril that appears here must be measured in tons!
A shirt woven from mithril could buy the entire Shire.
And if the land of Gondor can be used for negotiation, then the mithril accumulated here may be more than enough to buy three Gondors! Even reincarnations will be amazed by this kind of wealth, because the main god also sells mithril, and if it is at that price, even if the main god allows a 10% discount on the recycling price, the reward points exchanged for these mithrils will be enough to make the entire All Central Continent teams are 'back to square one', and there is still a huge surplus!
The dragon blood in Cheng Xiao's body was boiling. In other words, all the members of the Zhongzhou team who had been injected with the dragon blood potion could hardly control themselves at this moment. Because the mithril concentrate is not a treasure, but a platform for accumulating treasures. In the center of the platform, the gems and gold blown away by the wind dispersed like gravel. Dozens...or even hundreds of weapons, equipment, accessories and an equal amount of fine gold that sparkle with magic light overlap each other, emitting an unparalleled aura of wealth!
And these treasures... can even be worthy of the current combat power of the reincarnations!
The first person who tried to walk up was beyond everyone's expectations. It's not Cheng Xiao whose greedy instinct is inspired by the dragon's blood, nor Zhu Wen who has the highest inspiration and can discover the secrets in the ruins. But the individual who should be the most calm, intellectual, and even cautious.
That was Zhan Lan, and she saw something enough to make her take a step forward. That is……
"Psychic power amplifying metal... there was so much that it was cast into a crown!"
Mental power amplifying metal piece, a one-time consumable. The mass of a flake cannot be greater than fifty milligrams. And its exchange price...one piece can be sold for one thousand...or even fifteen hundred reward points.
The crown that appeared at the end of Zhan Lan's sight weighed at least half a catty. Not to mention that the crown is inlaid with pure white unknown gems and many dense and complicated rune structures. Even if you don't know its function yet, based on the material and craftsmanship, it must have a rating of A or above in the Lord God's redemption list!
This is something that has never appeared in the original book of The Lord of the Rings.
But it is a specialty in the infinite original world line. In the original world line, the Central Continent team will also find a large amount of this rare associated mineral of mithril in the mines of Moria - they are called 'Aegros'. It bears the same name as the weapon wielded by the Lost High King of the Noldor. And now, Aegros metal, which is more abundant than in the original world line, appears here in the form of a crown.
Jiang Yu could still remain calm. After all, he had already discovered the 'Heart of the Mountains' hidden in another place on the earth during the previous resonance of heaven and earth, which he had voluntarily given up. Then the biological force field overflowed silently, shaping into an invisible hand and gently patting Zhan Lan's shoulder. In order to make this overly gaffeful mental power user sober up a little.
Zhan Lan shuddered slightly.
She stopped suddenly, glanced at Jiang Yu gratefully and took a deep breath.
Then……
‘Buzz——’
Mothra's wings fluttered and spread out.
Some kind of tremor that goes straight to the heart spreads throughout the hearts of the reincarnations. This helped them regain their composure. However, even so, the eyes of the reincarnators looking at the treasure accumulation point were still filled with almost overflowing enthusiasm.
"Is this... the treasure of the monitors? At first, I thought it was just some jewels and gold piled together..." Zheng Zha murmured, and his words contained the emotion of explaining for Zhan Lan - this is really What he was able to do, even if Zhan Lan had just caught him and scolded him, he still had no desire to regain his position.
"The treasures of the dwarves have become unattractive." Jiang Yu also responded casually. "But this can be considered a good thing. After all, there are many survivors in Moria, and we can't rob their furniture."
Indeed, before attacking the Balrog. The dwarf survivors hiding in the caves have already come into the eyes of the Samsaras - if they are all dead, the Samsaras can naturally serve as acting avengers and laugh at all the treasures in Moria. However, since they are not all dead, the treasures in the mine belong to their owners. If the guests still want to maintain a good relationship with the local owners and maintain a righteous stance, it is best not to spend too much on these treasures. idea unless the other party actively gives it to you.
But now...the ancient lost heritage 20,000 meters underground can only be classified as the trophies of the brave no matter how you look at it. It feels at ease to pick it up, and the quantity and quality are sufficient.
"Okay, don't find steps for me." Unfortunately, Zhan Lan doesn't really need to 'explain'. "I admit that I was a little out of control just now. People with mental powers will fall into mental traps if they are not careful. I will pay more attention to it in the future and this problem will not happen again."
So Jiang Yu just waved his hand. Skip this link.
"We need to clean this place up." He turned his gaze and looked at Zhu Wen.
The latter nodded and took two steps forward. Along with the chanting of the incantation in her mouth, Asha's Miracle Fire, which has a remarkable effect on dead objects, was summoned out of thin air, and swept over the monitor's treasure like an eraser - after all, in the world of The Lord of the Rings , too dense treasures will also generate natural curses. Just like the dwarf gold in the Lonely Mountain, it will bring a disease called 'Dragon Disease'.
This is a setting that was only described in depth in The Hobbit movie, but briefly touched on in the original book.
And in fact...this is indeed a reason.
‘Hao————! ! ! ’ The sound of dragon roar suddenly sounded. The evil dragon blood armor on Zheng Zha's body trembled unconsciously. The next moment, a huge dragon-shaped shadow rose up under the scorching fire of miracles, collapsed, and became invisible in the eyes of the reincarnations!
More rocks and debris shook off the mithril platform. And among the ruins of the rock palace that further collapsed, a huge skeleton appeared in the eyes of the reincarnators.
It's a dragon!
A dragon that died in ancient times, leaving only its skeleton, but was at least twice as big as Smaug in the movie.
It sleeps here, with numerous treasures and weapons on its pillow. The cause of its death is unknown, but there is no doubt that the place where it died has accumulated the power of the curse brought about by the long-term presence of dragons.
The reason for Zhan Lan's loss of composure has been found - mental power users who have put down their defensiveness because of victory are indeed more likely to step into this poisonous spiritual trap.
And of course, this keel naturally represents more and more huge profits. Because the trembling of the blood armor on Zheng Zha's body did not stop but intensified greatly. For the first time, the reincarnations of the Central Continent team heard the eager roar of the dragon soul in the armor!
It's hungry.
And the huge keel in front of him cannot even cover up the strong appetite bursting out from the depths of his soul!
