A strange world

Chapter 445 Section 102. Legacy

Annan got three keys from the dense forest, the raging stream, and the loud singing.

"What's next?" he asked Farias.

“The entrance to the heritage is at the ‘God’s Gaze’.”

"The gods are watching? He dares to let the gods watch?" Annan said in surprise, and then he guessed what the entrance was: "Does the museum have a basement?"

"The basement itself is part of the museum. There is a wine cellar museum, a specimen museum, and a dungeon museum." Farias's mage talents are obviously in knowledge, and he can't guess the mystery of how Annan guessed it.

"Let's go to the dungeon." Annan said, following Farias to a faded underground staircase.

"Beware of hidden rat-men..."

Farias released the light spell, and Annan also let the water element go ahead. The walls reflect the shimmering light reflected from their bodies of water.

At this time, water suddenly bloomed from the waist of the water element walking in the front. A wooden thorn penetrated its body, and the end of the wooden thorn held two dirty claws.

A rat that can sneak attack is considered a smart species among rat people.

The attacked water element responded with a water blade and slit the rat man's throat.

The screaming rat man fell to the ground, the water elements moved towards the darkness, and Farias released several more light spells.

An empty dungeon with only brick walls appeared under the light. All the instruments of torture used for display disappeared, and even the iron bars were torn down... It is conceivable that somewhere in the old land, a group of militants are active. Rat man with a torture device.

"Are there any new puzzles?"

This dungeon museum is bigger than expected.

"This is the final piece of the puzzle."

Somewhat good news - Annan no longer has to deal with the mystery that made him lose his majesty.

“Who owns this property?”

"have no idea."

"The Violet Kingdom is the most..." Annan really couldn't describe it properly before he was proficient in Common Language, "Who is the dissolute noble?"

"Prince Clayton Kane Bolaños."

"I like this kind of name." Annan commented, "Does he have any deeds?"

"There are many women... and several manors have been built for them to live in."

"Looks like he's the owner."

Annan initially wanted to find the room where the prince "punished criminals", but now all parts of the dungeon are the same. He had no choice but to summon a group of earth elements and let them spread out to look for traces.

"We have been separated from Fras for too long," Farias reminded.

"It doesn't matter, he doesn't know anything."

The camp leader would give him trouble for "nothing"? Even Fras probably wouldn't tell anyone what happened today.

While talking, the earth elementals discovered a hidden chamber in the dungeon... and the corpses of the rat people.

Skaven discovered the legacy? This is not a good sign... Annan lets the earth element break into the secret room, but is stopped by Farias. He said that there is always a reason for the secret passage, and the rat people will not die in it for no reason. It is best for them to enter in a normal way.

Annan accepted Farias's suggestion that they had the key anyway.

Asking the elementals to search the cells near the secret room, they found three keyholes under a piece of masonry.

Insert the forest key, stream key, and song key into the keyhole in order. Farias sensed that the weak magic was activated, and then he and Annan exited the cell, because the floor tiles around the keyhole were regularly fading away, revealing a staircase that spiraled downwards.

When we get back, let Tina arrange the brick wall according to this effect.

Annan thought and entered the secret room along the spiral stairs.

They saw the ratmen killed by spell traps. They are about the same size as goblins, like large rats. The tunnel dug in the wall was only big enough for Lily to crawl through.

There is still a possibility that the inheritance has not been tampered with.

And it was unknown whether it was because they opened the secret room with the key or because the rat men had stepped on all the traps. The earth elemental walking in front was not attacked by any traps, even though there were no rat corpses around.

Annan continued to move forward and finally reached the end of the passage: an underground hall stood in front.

Eternal magic lamps and fluorescent gems shine together, and the stacked coins and treasures buried within form golden hills.

This is simply a natural dragon's lair!

Annan's eyes were attracted to the golden throne in the center of the hall: a ghost figure sat on it, holding a golden scepter inlaid with a magnificent black gem.

"Prince Bolaños?" Farias recognized the figure on the golden throne.

The ghostly figure was looking at Annan greedily: "Beautiful person, be my wife, and everything here is yours!"

"It's disgusting," Annan said in disgust.

The prince's shadow suddenly resembled a popped balloon, and the bursting sound turned into a harsh curse, echoing with a child-like shrill laughter: "I curse that your partner will never be a woman!"

"An activated goblin curse... you shouldn't answer it." Farias regretted that he discovered it too late. "The goblin's pranks will cause headaches even to the gods. Only the power of the goblin can eliminate your curse."

Annan was indifferent and even felt that the curse was harmless.

Are rat men considered women? Does the dragon count as a woman? What about elves and dwarves...and ghosts?

Annan walked towards the golden throne, picked up the golden scepter that fell on the edge of the throne, let the water element pry the black gem off along the edge, and threw the golden scepter back.

This time, Ilimoyas's dragon's nest has decorative gems.

Feeling that the rat tide outside was about to come back, Annan put hundreds of thousands of gold coins and countless treasures in the hall into the magic ring.

The magic ring that once contained four hundred boxes of gold coins and still had gaps was now almost filled.

Annan felt it was hot, so he simply threw the ring to Farias and asked him to return the ring to the count after he went out.

"You gave us the things?" Farias was stunned.

Annan suddenly added: "There are several cash boxes inside that belong to me."

"I mean...you believe us?"

"This is just one of the legacies, isn't it?" The cooperation between Annan and the Earl has just begun. Trust is Annan’s strength. He would continue to do so until he encountered a being who betrayed Annan's trust.

Then Farias fell into silence on the way out, not even bothering to show off to Fras, and hurried away as soon as he was out of the city.

Back at the camp, Annan also told the leader directly: "I found nothing...Thank you for your help, it's time for me to leave."

As expected, Flas didn't tell him, but he didn't choose to go with Annan either.

When Annan was about to leave, he met the blond woman. She said she had cooked some meals to thank Annan for saving his life and invited him to share the dinner.

It happened that Annan was a little curious about this mysterious woman, so he agreed to her.
