From Witcher to Lord of the Empire

After a small encounter, everyone reassessed their respective situations: a few shields were damaged, the person fell a little dazed, and everything else was fine.

Geralt scanned the room with his witcher senses on. Since there is a magic mechanism, there must be something wrong with this room.

Suddenly, the demon hunter turned his gaze to the back of the statue, and in his vision, there was a hazy light attached to the wall there.

He walked over and raised his hand to mark [Alder Seal]!

Immediately afterwards, the entire wall collapsed, and there was indeed a hole behind it.

Everyone stepped forward to observe, and saw another simple and simple passage behind the wall, which looked completely different from the ancient elf-style buildings they had seen before.

Obviously, the builder of this channel built his own secret laboratory relying on this ruin. The gold and silver on the outside are even placed on purpose, just to hide the real treasure inside.

Until now, they had really seen the tip of the iceberg of Thomas Molu's secret laboratory.

Following the tunnel, the group quickly came to the end. I saw a huge stone ball inlaid with a height of two people at the corner in front of it, and a broken skeleton was sandwiched between the stone ball and the wall.

"Someone doesn't seem to have escaped the trap."

Obviously, the stone ball rolled over from the other side of the passage, just smashing the tomb robber against the wall.

Lann probed into the passage, and there seemed to be a few broken bones and pieces of cloth in the darkness. This stone ball seemed to have achieved remarkable results and crushed many people.

Geralt went forward to search the body and found a piece of parchment, which was surprisingly well preserved.

Lan took the parchment and began to read the contents:

"...I had to take more security measures because suspicious people started to appear around the perimeter of my lab. I thought they were just ordinary criminals looking for valuables to steal and had no interest in my research, but It's better to be cautious."

[unreadable writing]

In addition, I decided to use simple mechanical devices to secure the laboratory, as suggested by the engineer's old acquaintance. In one of the rooms in the corridor leading to the laboratory, I installed a mechanism that can lock and unlock the door, which is operated by pressing four protruding stones high on the wall.

I can open the lock with simple magic, but the average thief will face two challenges: first, he must notice the four stones, deduce the function of the stones, and then try to press the stones...

[unreadable writing]"

The parchment seemed to be an experimental diary, and a large section of text on it had become blurred and unrecognizable due to time and improper preservation, but the remaining text on it was also very valuable to Lan and the others.

The name of the owner of this diary is ready to be revealed-Thomas Molu!

The druid sighed: "It's just a group of tomb robbers. They really found Professor Molu's magic laboratory. It's a pity that there are fates in and out."

Lan said to Geralt: "Then it's easy now, follow these tomb robbers and you will definitely find the secret laboratory."

With Geralt's witcher senses present, everyone searched in the opposite direction of the tomb robber's escape, and soon came to the edge of a huge underground canyon.

At this time, there is no trace of the ruins of the elf palace around, and it has turned into the simple architectural style of the traditional research warlock.

The rock walls on both sides were simply cut out with a bold method, and the road was so crowded that even two people could barely pass by side by side. If you are not careful, you may be transferred to the canyon below.

There are traces of buildings on both sides of the canyon, and a small section of bridge remnants on each side. Obviously, the two sides could communicate with each other in the past.

Geralt pointed to a small piece of rope tied to a pillar on the edge of the canyon and said, "These grave robbers came in from the same entrance as us. They slid along the rope from the other side and established a small stronghold here. .”

There are some traces of human life on the ground, including food residues that have almost merged with the dust, braziers and torches that cannot be ignited, and temporary construction fortifications that are completely inconsistent with the surrounding architectural styles, etc.

Geralt pointed in front of him: "And the purpose of their temporary camp here is for this. This is a door."

Geralt pointed to the wall in front of him. There was a small brick "wall" sunken inside.

If it wasn't for the hint from the witcher's senses, normal people wouldn't think it was a door.

The Druid stepped forward to observe it seriously, and commented: "It is indeed an engineering architectural style hundreds of years ago, so it should be right here."

Sward asked: "Then how do we get in? How about trying to blow up the remaining bombs together?"

The sword attendant's face was shining with excitement. After the water ghost battle, he seemed to have a strong interest in alchemy bombs. Although he said that this kind of method would damage the way of chivalry against the enemy, he actually tried his best to find occasions where he could explode.

Lane slapped Sward on the head with a slap, and reprimanded angrily: "We are here on the edge of an underground canyon, who knows if a large-scale explosion will trigger a chain reaction such as landslides, and now I am not here Don't blow up randomly!"

Afterwards, regardless of the attendant who was rubbing his head and nodding in approval, Lan took out Geralt's parchment and scanned the surrounding environment.

This is the scene he experienced in the game in his previous life. His recollection of how many monsters he had encountered and how much treasure he had found may have been hazy.

After all, no matter how strong a monster is, as long as it has a blood bar, it can always be cut off in the game; no matter how precious a treasure is, it can only be exchanged for coins, a string of numbers in a backpack. These are not worth occupying Lane's precious memory at all.

What really remains deep in my mind are those tedious maze deciphering and secret room escape procedures. For example, the one in front of him embarrassed Lan En for more than half an hour.

He once thought that he had to go to the opposite side of the canyon to find the laboratory instead of opening the damn door in front of him!

"Isn't it written in Professor Molu's diary?" Lan unfolded the parchment so that everyone could see "One of the rooms in the corridor of the laboratory has a mechanism that can lock and unlock the door." , operated by pressing on four protruding stones high up on the wall."

Lane looked around again, and everyone followed his gaze to look around.

Geralt had never thought that the environment described in the diary was here. After he finally connected the contents of the diary with the surrounding environment, and consciously searched for the "protruding stone", four places on the rock wall immediately flashed a long red light in his witcher senses.

"found it!"
