Wizard: I can refine everything

Chapter 661 Ancient Relics

After passing through the dense jungle, the expedition team came to a secret entrance hidden under the forest, vines and dead branches.

After removing the debris from the cave entrance, a thick metal door blocked the expedition team's way. Under the light, the door was dotted with blue light.

"It is mixed with lanthanum metal." said a member of the expedition team.

Lanthanum metal is a special mineral in this world. As a material, it has quite good anti-magic properties and also has a strong hindering effect on mental power.

This unique property allows the four-eyed people to use it widely in safes, vaults, and some secret places.

Even before the catastrophe, lanthanum metal products were all over the world.

"Measure the content." The leader said.

A team member came forward with a machine similar to a camera in his hand. He pointed the machine at the door and turned it on.

A purple laser shot out from the machine and hit the door.

Soon, a data appeared on the display behind the machine.

【30%】

"Thirty percent?"

Looking at this data, the expedition team members present were amazed. Although lanthanum metal is widely used in various places, lanthanum metal itself is not a common material.

There are only a few veins of this metal in the world of the four-eyed people, and most of them were mined before the catastrophe. A considerable part of the lanthanum metal used by the four-eyed people now comes from the recycling of waste metal from the ruins before the catastrophe.

Under normal circumstances, even the lanthanum metal content of bank vaults is only about 10%. Only some unknown top-secret organizations will use it if the content exceeds 15%.

For example: the Control Bureau.

And the lanthanum metal content of the door in front of us has reached 30%. Even if there are portable instruments and there are errors in the measurement, no matter how much the error is, it can only be 20% at most.

Twenty is also an extremely high number.

"We have encountered something big this time." A team member murmured to himself.

The team leader looked at the data of the instrument and carefully measured it twice, and the measurements were still in different locations. But the results were the same.

"It's still 30%... Wow, this relic is a bit tricky." The leader muttered to himself.

In the world of awakeners, those who can take over a private expedition team with more than 100 people are basically well-known figures. If these people were placed in ancient times, they would have a more well-known title - mercenary leader.

But precisely because they are well-known, the leader knows how troublesome this relic is. Although people often say that there are no laws in the world of awakeners, those who have really reached a certain level know it.

The world of awakeners is not without rules.

A huge shadow is always monitoring every awakener who emerges. Once someone crosses the line, they will only be greeted by death and disappearance.

Unfortunately, this shadow is very interested in historical relics before the Great Cataclysm.

There are often rumors in the underground world that someone was visited at night and his things and life were taken away because he obtained a historical relic before the Great Cataclysm.

But as the leader of the expedition team, the leader knows that he has no choice. He has already signed the contract and spent so much money from the sponsor. If he backs out at this time, he will have to pay off the debt for decades, not to mention anything else.

"I hope the sponsor's background is strong enough this time."

The team leader sighed and walked slowly to the front door. Seeing this scene, the team members stepped back. Those who cooperated with the team leader for the first time, although they didn't know what the team leader was going to do, also stepped back.

"Brother Loren, what is the team leader going to do?"

In the crowd, Bal asked Professor Loren, whose face was a little pale.

Professor Loren is a long-term partner of this expedition team. He knows much more about this expedition team than Bal.

"Unlock." Loren replied weakly.

Suddenly, a feeling like wind blowing passed over Bal.

He suddenly looked at the team leader, only to see that the team leader was pressing the door with a discus-like machine, his four eyes were closed, and his eyebrows were shaking constantly. And in his body, it seemed that there was light flowing.

"Is this a source of energy fluctuation?" The thought suddenly popped up in Bal's mind.

Apart from this explanation, he really couldn't find a second explanation.

The leader's expression kept changing. At first, he just frowned, but as time went by, his expression became more and more labored. Later, the leader's expression could only be described as painful.

His facial features were almost twisted together.

Suddenly, a muffled sound came from deep inside the gate.

The leader let go of his hand and let the machine fall to the ground. It was like a sauna, and sweat was pouring down his body.

"Huh, this door is really not covered. Fortunately, I am a step ahead."

The lanthanum metal door slowly opened, but there was no dirty gas coming out of the ruins. On the contrary, the passage behind the door was almost dusty, and it was almost impossible to tell that it had been abandoned for thousands of years.

It seemed that thousands of years were just a breeze.

Soon, the leader recovered, stood up and called to everyone: "Go in. Professors, it's up to you later."

Entering the ruins, under the protection of the guards, the two professors, along with several of their students, entered the ruins.

The interior of the ruins was dark, even though the street lights on the wall were intact. Without civilized technology, it would be a fantasy to create a power source that could function stably for thousands of years.

The guards walked in front with flashlights, and all the energy guns in their hands were turned off. Although there are no alien creatures in most ruins, no one can say whether this base is one of the few.

Among the guards, two professors and their students, mainly Professor Loren's students, are determining which dynasty the ruins belonged to before the catastrophe based on the characteristics of the ruins.

The ruins are large, with many layers, and the doors of each layer are closed. And the most strange thing is that there are no corpses inside the ruins.

Not even one.

"Teacher, come and see this."

Suddenly, one of Professor Loren's students exclaimed. Everyone went over to take a look and saw a line of almost erased black text at the intersection of a passage.

"This is... Kelvin!"

After seeing the text, Bal immediately shouted in shock. Professor Loren took a magnifying glass and took a closer look, and his face also showed a shocked expression.

"It's really Kelvin! I didn't expect that this area was also the territory of the Kel Dynasty!"

In the history before the Great Cataclysm, the Kel Dynasty was the most mysterious dynasty.

The territory of this dynasty is unknown, the text is incomplete, and the relics are pitifully few. But in the many documents before the Great Cataclysm that have been discovered so far, the Kel Dynasty was a powerful dynasty that made the four barbarians submit.

There is even such a saying in the historical community that there was only the Kel Dynasty before the Great Cataclysm. The rest were just vassal states and tributary states of the Kel Dynasty.

Of course, this statement is generally regarded as a joke by historians.

"What does this line of words say?" The team leader came over and asked.

Professor Loren looked at it again and again, and said uncertainly: "Lighthouse...turn it off."

"Lighthouse?"

Everyone was a little confused. They were now inland. Where did the lighthouse come from inland? If it is used as a metaphor, what does this lighthouse represent?

Bal had no objection to this translation, but he couldn't guess what this lighthouse was.

"Keep going." Professor Loren said, "You can't tell anything from this sentence alone."

Continuing forward, they passed many rooms on the way. The doors of the rooms were all closed. After opening them, they found that these rooms were all dormitories. After looking through them one by one, the expedition team found two diaries with handwriting.

According to the content of the diary, the ruins they are currently in is a branch of the Supreme Research Institute. In this branch, they are studying an ancient heritage called the Relics of the Supreme.

"Supreme!?"

Looking at the contents of the diary, both professors exclaimed. They didn't know what this name meant, but they knew that this discovery meant that there was a more distant history before the catastrophe.

This is a huge discovery, which is enough for them to leave their names in textbooks in the future.

"Keep going, keep going!"

Professor Barron's face was unnaturally light blue. He fell ill while rushing on the road a few days ago and has not yet recovered. With such a big harvest, his spirit was a little dazed.

"The research area is further in." The leader's expression was a little nervous. "You two, I have to say something. We may encounter danger next. You must follow us and don't run around."

"Understood."

Continuing down, everyone quickly entered the research floor along the stairs. The door of the research floor was thicker than the door of the accommodation floor above, and the leader took a lot of effort to open it.

The moment the door opened, a wave of energy like a breeze swept through all the expedition team members in an instant.

"What is this...?"

Bal looked at the scene in front of him in a daze.

In front of him, a huge crystal ball was suspended in the air, and it was as regular as a heartbeat that it bloomed softly. But outside it, countless flesh and blood like vines stretched out from the void, as if to snatch the crystal ball away and devour it.

But as the crystal ball shone brightly, all these tentacles were annihilated by the seemingly soft light.

Suddenly, the flesh and blood seemed to notice the expedition team that opened the door. A piece of flesh and blood stretched out from the void and did not wrap around the crystal ball. Instead, it pounced on the nearest explorer like a poisonous snake.

Its speed was so fast that even the leader of the second-level creatures could not react.

The next moment, the explorer's body began to swell rapidly, and the energy in the air was also gathering towards him.

He seemed to be... growing!

"Retreat!" The captain exclaimed.

At the same time, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from behind them.
