Chapter 3050 Ancient Elf Relics
Xia De comforted Mia, who was very excited because she hadn't seen him all night, and took Emilia's hand to let her sit down and listen to him:
"The Tree Hole Association teamed up with other illegal ring sorcerers to find many relics controlled by paradox bugs in the woods. Luvia and Bella originally thought that the Watchmaker was also in the woods outside the city, but in fact she was in the city."
"where is it?"
Emilia looked around with some concern:
"She won't be in this concert hall, will she? Will she appear later disguised as someone we know? Maybe we should be worried about everyone who is taller than Ajelina."
Xia De was amused by her:
"That's not the case. I find it hard to believe, but there seems to be an ancient elven relic under the city of Vesta, or rather the town of Creekwood. Even the Nightsong elves who lived here in the Fifth Age don't know this. The relic belongs to the ancient Second Age and was built by the Elf King after the remains of the World Tree were sealed."
Shade paused for a moment, remembering that the long-haired Flame Luvia had mentioned this ruin a few hours ago:
"The watchmaker is now in that underground ruin."
Emilia then looked down at her feet again:
"Remains from the Second Age? I remember reading that no ruins that old have been discovered since the Sixth Age. Even if remnants from the Second Age have been found, they would only be ruins like those in the forest."
"Yes. The ancients in the forest may have known about the existence of this relic a long time ago. It is even possible that the reason why Creekwood Town was chosen to be located on this land was because it knew what was beneath this land."
Shade gently squeezed the elf's hand. This was certainly not to take advantage of her - although her hand did feel very nice:
"Luvia and Bella only divined that the watchmaker was underground. Just now, I, Miss Hayley Aurora, Margaret and I led a team of ring magicians from the Tree Hole Association on the outskirts of the city. Combining their information with what the church knows, we deduced that there are such ruins underground. The local church only knows a few legends.
The watchmaker should have been hiding before the war began, but don't worry, her helpers have been repelled by us. Miss Orlanod will be here soon. Not only us, but also the church and the college have arranged a team to escort you into the underground ruins. Emilia, we will all accompany you. "
No one knew about the sudden appearance of the "Ancient Elf Ruins" beforehand - except the long-haired girl, but since the "Watchmaker" was hiding there, Emilia had to go there. The ruins were very deep below the surface and protected by an unknown force. Even the girl with butterfly wings could only barely know its general location through spatial perception.
Luvia had already figured out the best way to get in by using one of her two remaining coins, and after Emilia had packed everything, the group was ready to set off.
The next move must be quick. Although the vanguard of the third wave of insects has been suppressed, it should be no problem to temporarily withdraw some manpower. However, as the war tonight progresses, the city's forces have begun to show signs of fatigue, so they cannot stay underground for too long, otherwise they may find that the city is gone when they drill out of the ground.
In addition to Shade and Miss Orlanod, the church was still accompanied by Mr. Gerald, the "Master of Construction" of the Creation Church. Although he was cursed like Vanessa, it did not affect the use of power;
Because all the personnel of the academy were tied up outside the city, they only sent a small team from Saint Byrons, without the Thirteenth Ring;
Instead, the elves directly let Mr. Elderon, the only thirteenth-ring "Lord of the Valley", lead a team composed entirely of high-ring elves to participate in the operation.
The exploration of unknown ruins requires the accompaniment of a fortune teller, so Bella also rushed into the city with Miss Orlanod. The Prophet Association also squeezed out two high-level fortune tellers from the strategic command to participate in the operation.
Therefore, there are a total of three people in the thirteenth ring (level) plus the ancient witch in this operation, 21 people in the high ring, and two people in the middle ring - referring to Shad and Emilia.
Because it was an underground operation, the little unicorn was not convenient to accompany them, so Shade left it and Mia with Margaret. The butterfly-winged girl who sent Miss Orlanod and Bella into the city wanted to accompany them, but Shade asked her to return to the ship:
"The only fighting force left on that ship is Miss Elither. They need you. And once we come out of the ruins, the final battle will begin, and you will not be left behind."
After gathering, the team of 26 people entered the city underground from the sewer entrance at the door of the concert hall. After the three fortune tellers verified the location that Shad got from Luvia, the "Master of Construction" Mr. Gerard Delong threw out a brass metal ball that looked very heavy. After the ball landed on the ground with a thud, it immediately broke into densely packed small brass parts.
During this time, everyone in the team moved closer to Emilia, who was in the middle of the team. After throwing five balls in succession, the metal parts formed a cube around everyone, enveloping them all:
"Stand still!"
Mr. Delong warned, and then everyone felt the ground beneath their feet shake slightly, and the cube that wrapped everyone began to slowly sink.
This was not magic or a spell, it was simply this gentleman controlling the metal parts to corrode the ground. At first, the speed of the group's descent was not very fast, but after just half a minute, Emilia, who was held by Miss Orlanod's hand, felt that everyone was in free fall.
There were no pores on the surface of the metal cube, so she had no idea what was happening outside. The "fall" lasted for three minutes before it ended with a rumbling sound, but at least the cube slowed down appropriately when it stopped falling, so it landed smoothly.
The brass metal cube disintegrated immediately, and dense metal parts scattered from under the feet of the group, then gathered again into five metal spheres that floated next to Mr. Gerard Delon.
Everyone in the team has "dark vision", so at this moment everyone can see what the scenery of this dark world is like.
Specifically speaking, the scene at this time was not complicated. Behind everyone was a thick rock wall, on which a huge elven rune array was painted with purple luminous paint. If Emilia was not mistaken, it was most likely the space lock of the entrance and exit of this underground ruins.
It was completely dark above their heads, and the highest rock wall was a hundred meters high from them. Under their feet was a wide bridge that was wide enough for ten carriages to run side by side.
The bridge deck was made up of neat, rectangular blue bread stones that were typical of ancient elves, but there were no guardrails on either side of the bridge deck. Looking outside the bridge, the darkness stretched to the invisible distance. And according to Emilia's not very strong spatial perception, the area under the bridge was almost a bottomless abyss.
In other words, although this bridge has a base that extends into the darkness underground, it can still be equated to a "single-plank bridge" "floating" above the abyss.
At one end of the bridge was a rock wall with purple glowing elven rune locks carved on it, which was where everyone was currently standing. Looking ahead, at the other end of the stone bridge was a majestic ancient temple standing in the darkness. Two giant stone statues of elven figures holding shields and swords stood on the left and right sides of the other end of the stone bridge, their lower bodies in the void darkness under the bridge, their upper bodies exposed on the bridge surface, their faces covered with masks silently looking in the direction of the group.
The temple, which was in the style of ancient elves, was built between two huge stone statues, or rather, the bodies of the two stone statues were also part of the temple.
It stood in the darkness, and the seemingly smooth bridge surface connected everyone to the entrance of the palace. Although it looked unobstructed, everyone present knew that the next section of the road would definitely not be safe.
The formation changed, and Emilia was still surrounded in the middle. The academy team was in charge of the left wing, the elves team was in charge of the right wing, and the church team was at the end. Miss Orlanod held Emilia's hand and stood in the center. The three fortune-tellers stood around them and were protected by the teams on the left and right. The "Lord of the Valley", "Master of Construction" and "God Caller" - that is, Shade stood at the front of the team.
"The ability to move in space is disabled here. Although it is possible to use it by force, it will probably trigger the defense of the ruins itself."
Shad said.
"Try not to fly. I've read stories about similar explorations of ruins in the clan's texts. If you stand on this bridge, you'll be considered a guest. Even if you force your way forward, you'll only be considered an unwelcome guest. But once you leave the bridge, you'll be considered an enemy. We can only take this path and must not deviate."
Said Mr. Elderon, who was wearing a golden ring on his head.
Finally, Mr. Gerard Delon, the "Master of Construction" of the Creation Church, reminded:
"I feel that there are many things hidden in the darkness. I'm afraid the 'Watchmaker' has prepared gifts for us."
He stood in the middle of the leading three:
"The three of us will lead the way in a moment, and everyone else must follow closely."
As she spoke, a rustling sound was already echoing in the darkness, and Emilia somehow thought of the dense swarms of spiders crawling on the rock walls above her head and around her.
The speechless crowd released a series of enhancing magic to cover the entire team. Even Shade lifted up a ball of silver moonlight and suspended it in front of the team. His moonlight could effectively kill evil. This was something the outsider knew when he was at the first level.
Just as everyone was preparing, a huge roar suddenly came from the front of the straight stone bridge. It sounded like a heavy object falling to the ground, but also like an ancient gear mechanism suddenly starting up.
Then, the eyes of the two huge stone statues standing on both sides of the Elf Palace suddenly emitted a purple-black light, and the faces of the two fortune tellers from the Prophet Association and Bella changed at the same time.
