The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

"Sir, we found another dark room!"

He was so excited that he couldn't care about anything else. He walked in again and saw the heroes gathered in a corner.

Seeing Ji Chen coming, he immediately moved out of the way, revealing a dark cave entrance.

"How was this cave discovered?"

"Sir, this hole appeared after I accidentally touched a place on the stone table." Alice pointed to the bottom of the stone table, squatted down, and could see that a place on the lower side of the stone table was slightly dented. Go up.

Ji Chen nodded. It seemed that there was a high probability that this was another secret grid set up by the great lich Chris.

The entrance to the cave was only about one person high, and was only wide enough for two people to walk side by side. There was no lighting inside, and it was completely pitch black.

But the extreme darkness did not extinguish the excitement in his heart at all.

A darkroom hides an even more secret darkroom.

That's enough to get even more excited.

Ji Chen couldn't imagine that things like red and orange skill scrolls, alchemy notes, and four-star treasures that were considered precious outside were just placed in a dark room outside.

So what kind of treasures are hidden in this more secret darkroom?

Just thinking about it makes people look forward to it even more.

"Let's put aside the new darkroom for the time being and search this place thoroughly first."

"Check more carefully to see if there are other hidden compartments and mechanisms that have not yet been discovered!"

The heroes obeyed and began searching enthusiastically again.

Just as they were conducting the search with great enthusiasm, there was a space where many experimental materials were being held outside.

Erin and Tomodo were waiting eagerly. When they saw Ji Chen and the others were still not coming back, the impatient Tomodo walked around in the small cage and sometimes looked in the direction of the passage.

"Tomodo, stop wandering around, it's almost dazzling me." Erin said with some dissatisfaction, "You've been here for so long, what does it matter if you wait a little longer?"

"I know, pointy ears." Tomodo wanted to retort, but found that he was no longer in the mood to continue scolding. He scratched his hair impatiently and said anxiously:

"You also know that the perverted lich is so cunning and perverted. He might leave a back-up here. If that human being gets any accidents caused by the back-up, then our hope of escape will be gone!"

"He is the first human creature to come here in thousands of years, and he may also be the last in the next thousands of years!"

Erin was a little silent, and a trace of worry could not help but flash in her eyes.

But soon she felt refreshed, frowned and said, "I don't think you need to be so worried. You must have sensed something strange about that human being, right?"

Hearing this, a look of solemnity appeared on Tomo's face, "Are you talking about that strange aura?"

"Yes, although it is very vague and hidden, I can be sure that this aura may be related to those existences." Erin nodded seriously, "If this is true, then this human being may have received some kind of protection and favor. It is impossible Die so easily."

Tomodo thought about it and felt that it made sense. The higher the strength, the more he would come into contact with the things hidden in the dark side of the world. The more he understood, the more he was in awe of those things and existence.

If that human being is really a favored person, the potential is truly unimaginable.

After thinking about it, Tomodo suddenly reacted, stared and asked loudly: "Then you agreed to that human's condition so readily before, did you just take a fancy to his huge potential!?"

Hearing this, Erin looked at Tomodo in surprise, covered her mouth and laughed sweetly, "I thought you wouldn't notice until you went out."

"Damn it! Cunning pointy ears! If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have bargained like that!" Tomodo said angrily.

"So there is a reason why the dwarves have gotten to where they are today~"

After searching here for a long time, Ji Chen and the others were unable to find anything more. There were too few things that could withstand the passage of thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Focus on the dark hole.

This time, it was exactly the same. Ji Chen still let a fish-man wanderer enter first to detect whether there was any danger.

As for the Crown of All-Seeing, as early as when it entered this laboratory, it was turned into gray and completely useless by the special energy that pervaded the place.

Ji Chen could only use this kind of human flesh detection to detect danger.

But this time, what shocked everyone was that after entering, the pathfinding fish-man wanderer walked out of the cave in just two or three minutes.

"There is a patio inside that leads to the ground where you can't see the bottom."

Ben Bo'er Ba thus relayed the meaning of the fish-man wandering the enemy.

After Ji Chen thought for a while, he decided to take a look for himself.

A group of people held torches and began to enter in an orderly manner.

In the dark passage, even with the light of the fire, it looked very dark. The fire light printed the figures of everyone on the wall, and the figures looked longing.

This narrow passage is different from the previous one. It extends slightly downward. Less than a hundred meters into the entrance, you will come to a circular patio with a diameter of several hundred meters. The spiral steps attached to the well wall go all the way from the top. Submerged in the darkness where one cannot see clearly.

Looking from the edge of the steps to the darkness below, which was so dark that there was no light at all, Ji Chen always felt like wisps of dark wind blowing up from the bottom, which made people's hair stand on end.

In unison, several heroes frowned, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"My lord, there must be something unusual down there, so be careful." Alice whispered, but her voice seemed so loud in the quiet surroundings.

Seeing the solemn expressions of all the heroes, Ji Chen nodded solemnly.

"Everyone is on alert and ready to escape from here at any time."

"yes!"

The heroes nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Ji Chen distributed the torches and started walking down the steps toward the patio.

This step does not have any handguards. It is just stone pillars inserted into the wall one by one, with hollows in the middle. Some stone pillars have even been weathered and broken.

Ji Chen's face was almost tense. Every creaking sound of the stone pillars was challenging his heart.

After walking down dozens of meters, they still couldn't see the bottom, as if it was an abyss that could swallow them.

The further he went down, the more excited Ji Chen was, but thinking of the good things that might exist, he gritted his teeth and continued going down.

When they descended more than ninety meters, taking advantage of the firelight, they finally saw the bottom of the patio.

At the bottom of the same circular patio, there stood an altar engraved with strange and mysterious patterns. There was an alchemy device on it, and a crystal ball was also suspended on the device.

The appearance of this device and crystal ball actually looks exactly like the one in the darkroom full of books above.

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, with doubts and confusion on their faces.

Why is there a control center here?

Ji Chen was also confused at first, but he quickly came to his senses.

The control center in the book darkroom is fake!

And the control center here is the real one

Set up two control centers, one true and one false. This is probably the backhand left by the great lich Chris Teldaril!

Generally speaking, if an outsider wants to lift the seal and cage, they will most likely be "lucky" to find the book darkroom, and when they see the control center there, they will think that it should be real, without even thinking about the possibility that it is fake.

Then, Chris followed this idea and deliberately set up a fake control center there.

In this way, once an outsider uses the fake control center and triggers some countermeasures, the consequences can be imagined.

I believe that the means left behind by a big lich are enough to kill all the invaders here.

However, when Ji Chen arrived this time, he jumped over this trap by mistake.

He was not in a hurry to use the fake control center at first, but he anxiously searched the darkroom of books thoroughly. In this way, he accidentally discovered the secret compartment that opened the patio, and therefore discovered that the real control center was hidden here. center.

After thinking about it, Ji Chen was still worried. Should he say that he was lucky or that he hit it by mistake? Or did he avoid a crisis unintentionally because of greed.

After thinking about it from beginning to end again, Ji Chen was definitely more cautious.

"Everyone will search the bottom of this courtyard thoroughly again!"

"Pay attention to see if there are other hidden compartments and mechanisms."

With an order, the army moved again and searched closely.

Two hours later, after searching several times to make sure that no other hidden compartments or mechanisms were found, Ji Chen felt relieved and walked up to the altar to the control center.

The crystal ball floats quietly above the device, with traces of lightning flashing between the two.

This center is the real core of the entire laboratory. It controls all cages and seals, and can also control the opening and closing of the magic circle and attacks.

As long as you control this place, you have control of the entire laboratory.

Seeing that there was nothing else in the courtyard, Ji Chen was slightly disappointed, but he did not waste time and tried to use the control center to remove the seals and cages of Erin and Tomodo.

Touching the crystal ball, he saw that his palm was blocked by an invisible film ten centimeters away from the ball. The moment he touched it, Ji Chen's consciousness was immersed in it.

It seemed as if I had entered a place among the stars.

There are hundreds of particularly conspicuous dots among the stars, arranged in a certain queue and position.

Ji Chen knew that these dots represented the hundreds of cages and seals in the outside room.

Some of the white dots are already white, which means that no "prisoners" are being held. Some are red, which means that "prisoners" are being held. Some dots are large and some are small. These are related to the size of the cage.

Look carefully among these white spots for those belonging to Erin and Tomodo.

It's quite easy to find. Erin and Tomodo's "qualifications" here are among the lowest, so the dots representing them are on the outside, and the cages holding them are not big, so they are also the smallest. A batch.

Soon, Ji Chen found their dots on the edge.

Just as he was thinking about undoing their seals and cages.

The stars in front of me suddenly froze, as if the computer interface was stuck and could not be operated.

Danger!

A feeling of extreme danger came over him, and Ji Chen felt a chill on his back.

No, you have to quit immediately!

He wanted to withdraw his consciousness from the control center, but found that he could no longer control it, and the whole "person" was stuck together with the stars.

"Jie Jie Jie, after all this time, a prey finally took the bait. It has been so hard for me to wait for thousands of years!"

"And he is also a human being with such good adaptability and such high physical potential! It's really not a trap I carefully designed."

There were waves of gloomy and cunning voices in the ears, which instantly made people think of some evil existence.

Ji Chen had already thought of this existence.

It’s the Archlich Chris Teldaril! The owner of the laboratory here!

Chris's sharp voice slowly sounded among the stars.

"Human, you thought you were smart enough to see through the trap and avoid it, but you certainly didn't expect that the previous traps were just the foreshadowing of this trap."

"The series of 'baits' I have laid out before are all designed to arouse your greed and make you relax your vigilance and step into my trap step by step."

"At this time, do you feel regretful and unwilling?"

Ji Chen was very angry and wanted to say, "Mom, sell it."

But the stars stopped and his consciousness seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't even speak.

This Chris is so insidious. Anyone who sees such a precious thing before will lower their guard a little, right?

He would never have thought that the consciousness of this old man was hidden in the control center.

After talking to himself for more than ten minutes, as if he had vomited out everything he had said for thousands of years, Chris stopped.

"But all this will come to an end now. After getting your body, the great great lich Chris Teldaril will make a comeback and spread his fame into the void again!"

"And you should feel extremely honored and lucky to be able to offer your body to Chris!"

Ji Chen's heart has sunk to the bottom.

It turned out that this was what Chris had planned, to use his body to return to the world.

Since then, through Chris's self-talk and what happened before and after, he also understood something.

It turns out that during the thousands of years since the great lich Chris Teldarel disappeared, he did not leave or abandon this place.

Probably for some reason, his life and body were irreparably damaged, so he could only return here in a hurry, transfer his consciousness into the trap prepared in advance, and quietly lurk in the control center waiting for the 'prey' to take the bait. .

Who knows, no living being has entered here for thousands of years, until Ji Chen became the first "lucky person".

After thinking about it, Ji Chen didn't know what to say.

At this moment he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, unable to do anything.

"Jie Jie Jie, let me take a good look at your body and see how far it will take me to recover. Ahhh! What is this!!!"
