Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard Chapter 1156

"Ka Ka Ka Ka..."

"Crack!"

【Master Key (Orange)】Smoothly opened the cover.

It's just that after unlocking, it didn't bounce off immediately.

Because the metal cover has been corroded, hundreds of years of erosion and the rolling of the stone walls have caused the cover to get stuck at the entrance of the tunnel.

This is not a problem for the two clones.

As long as the unlock is successful, subsequent use of brute force will not cause damage to the foundation of the castle.

Thus sneaking into the underground secret room without anyone noticing.

Zong Shen controlled the two avatars and took out a whiteboard long sword from the storage jewelry, inserted them in along the gap, and then pried upwards from a diagonal direction.

When both long swords were bent and damaged, the corroded cover was opened.

In order to make the plan go smoothly, Zong Shen equipped the two avatars with storage jewelry, which stored many magical objects that might be used, as well as some low-level equipment and spell scrolls.

In order to avoid being helpless when you encounter problems.

It turned out to be wise to do so.

In the case of not being able to use force at will, the advantages of clones are actually not many.

After all, this was an infiltration operation, not a violent raid.

Of course, when the preparations are ready, the avatar controlled by Zong Shen himself is as convenient as his own body!

After opening the cover of the tunnel, a dark and gloomy ladder entrance was revealed below.

A metal ladder made of bronze is embedded in the wall. As a magical metal with a not too low grade, bronze is not afraid of the erosion of the years, without any trace of rust.

Zong Shen switched to distraction, and controlled Clone No. 1 to crawl in along the passage first.

Leaving Clone No. 2 watching in the bathroom.

The narrow underground passage is not suitable for pressing the two avatars together.

First let Clone No. 1 go down to see the specific situation, and then decide how to act next.

Down the ladder vertically down about twenty or thirty meters.

This height is equivalent to seven or eight floors.

The passage is completely vertical, with a diameter of about two meters, and it is relatively spacious for a single person to pass up and down the ladder.

With the help of the clone's perception, Zong Shen smelled the dust in the air.

Hundreds of years ago, it was not only a passage, but also a ventilation well.

The head of the Lancaster family at that time opened up several rooms including this room into a library.

This channel is placed here to facilitate the passage of the owner.

Later, the castle was redecorated, and it was closed and re-partitioned into several guest rooms.

In the Endless Continent, many castles in ancient cities have a long history.

Each generation of patriarchs or ruling nobles will modify and decorate the castle according to their own wishes.

There are many places like this abandoned passage in the castle.

These traces of history cannot be concealed unless the heavy cover is completely torn down.

The turbidity of the air proves that the passage is relatively closed.

It's just because the cover is opened, so there is an influx of air, which can maintain normal breathing.

Then there is a high probability that the other end of the passage has also been blocked.

The gold circle marker navigation of the strategy module is still functional.

Among the targets locked by the golden circle, looking at the location, the core of the magic circle should be located underground in the middle of the castle.

And the location corresponding to this passage is in the southeast direction of the castle.

The underground space of the entire castle has long been completely hollowed out.

The solid foundation extends to more than 100 meters underground.

On this basis, several floors of underground spaces and secret rooms were built.

A thick foundation can not only be used to build a secret room, but also ensure the stability of the building, greatly improving the overall firmness of the castle and ensuring that it is difficult for enemies to invade from the ground.

In other words, if the Marquis Castle is completely erected.

Then you can find that the whole castle is like a building repaired on a huge square cornerstone.

Like an incongruous piece of cast iron sculpture.

The main body is not half as big as the base!

Yes, the castle has built a foundation that is much larger than the main body on the ground.

This construction method is expensive, and it is also known as a strong ground castle.

The cost of building a solid-type castle can be used to build three ordinary-type castles.

But the advantages are also very prominent. In addition to building an underground secret room in the foundation to prevent the enemy from invading from the ground, the most notable feature is the super high building firmness value.

The building firmness value of Endless Continent is integrated.

The upper limit of firmness will be determined based on the scale and level of the building.

In a solid-ground castle, the foundation part buried in the ground exceeds the main body.

This will greatly increase the upper limit of the building's sturdiness value, and because the foundation that occupies a large volume is hidden deep underground, the probability of being attacked is low, and the main body of the castle is still the main body of the attack.

In this way, once in and out, the castle is equivalent to having the sturdiness of a super-large building, but with fewer attack surfaces, and the difficulty for the enemy to break through it is also increasing.

For the Marquis Castle, the real core area is underground!

It is also because of this that the entire underground space of the castle has been constructed by members of the Lancaster family over the years and has become a complex underground labyrinth.

No wonder the core of the magic circle guarding the castle would be placed there.

Because no matter from any angle, it is indeed the safest place in the castle.

It is not easy to attack and destroy, and only a single person can sneak in to have a chance.

And even if it is a stealth tactic, it will still face many troubles.

The complex underground space is a real labyrinth. During this period, it has been remodeled many times by the ancestors of the Lancaster family. Even the Marquis Henry himself would not dare to walk around indiscriminately.

If outsiders rush into the underground maze without guidance, there is a high probability that they will get lost in it.

Zong also relied on the strategy module to dare to go underground unscrupulously.

This is all the information he learned through the strategy prompt in advance.

After going down the ladder for about 30 meters, Clone No. 1 finally arrived at the first underground floor!

The exit structure at the end of the passage resembles a fireplace chimney.

It was also, as expected, blocked by masonry.

Clutching the [Prophet's Eye of Sharp Vision (orange)] to start perspective, he found that he couldn't see through the blocked wall.

This shows that the thickness of the closed stone wall exceeds 50 centimeters.

After using the strategy module to confirm that there is no one on the other side of the wall.

Zong Shen controlled Clone No. 1 and took out the hammer and chisel again, as well as [Mute Rune Stone].

This kind of post-built wall can be dug at will, without worrying about alarming the people in the castle.

In just two or three minutes, Clone No. 1 dug a hole for one person to pass through, and took away all the chiseled stone debris.

The improvised stone wall was more than a meter thick, and no corners were cut.

After breaking through the exit of the passage, the avatar came to a silent corridor located in the southeast of the underground of the castle.

Torch stands were placed on the walls on both sides of the aisle, and every ten meters, there was also a magic lighting lamp made of white crystal.

The air is not fresh, but it smells much better than that in the descending passage.

The avatar looked around, and quickly selected a direction under the guidance of the strategy navigation!

The core of the magic circle is located on the third floor underground.

Zong Shen had to find a way for the avatar to find hidden downward passages everywhere, bypassing the high-level detection magic arranged at key nodes and the elite soldiers guarding here, and reach the core secret room smoothly.

In such a huge underground space, there are many warehouses that store a large amount of food and armaments.

There are also safe houses for emergency evacuation.

Even the treasure house of the Lancaster family is housed here.

So there are many sensitive areas, and basically all of them are equipped with high-level detection magic.

From time to time, there will be sixth-order Avalon Dragon Roar rangers and swordsmen patrolling past.

There are two squadrons of Tier 6 fighters stationed here.

In the garrison of the whole city, there are only seven squadrons of sixth-tier fighters.

The frequency of patrols is very intensive. If there is no strategy guide, I am afraid that Clone No. 1 will have been exposed long ago.

There are nine passages from the basement floor to the second floor, eight of which are equipped with high-level detection magic circles.

Only one old passage in the northwest corner is not covered by a magic circle.

Clone No. 1 circumnavigated for seven or eight minutes before carefully arriving at the destination.

This old passage was not sealed, but the room was full of various sundries.

Including severely damaged armor, white crystals removed from the magic circle, damaged mana mechanical parts, and so on.

That passageway is hidden among the sundries, so it is necessary for Clone No. 1 to carry the sundries in a disheveled manner.

At this time, the stealth effect of the clone will end in more than ten minutes.

Taking advantage of the space to store jewelry, Clone No. 1 quickly cleared all the debris.

But the next moment, Zong Shen who controlled the clone was stunned.

Because this abandoned passage did not detect the magic circle, but there was a skeleton wearing knight armor sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the passage.

When the clone approached, the skeleton's head suddenly lifted up.

The crimson fire of the soul is constantly throbbing, smearing the blood-colored brilliance in the darkness.

"Ka Ka Ka..."

The skull's lower jaw collided with the upper jaw, making a "click".

A intact lance and kite-shaped shield were placed beside the skeleton, covered in dust.

[Lancaster family guardian knight: Gajeel Wade LV43 (gold) (dead state)]

[2739 years ago, I swore allegiance to the Guardian Knights to the Lancaster family, and I still fulfill my promise even after dying for many years]

The golden writing surfaced in Zong Shen's consciousness, revealing this guy's true identity.

This skeleton is a guardian spirit, and it has been placed here for many thoughts.

No wonder there is no detection magic installed here, and the passage is not closed with stone walls!

The information limitations of the strategy module are also reflected at this moment.

Zong Shen asked about the deployment of the underground patrols and detection magic circles.

This does not include the undead.

And it seems that this undead knight has long been ignored by Marquis Henry.

The sundries piled up in this house are all very old things.

Looking at the skeleton knight in front of him, Clone No. 1 took out a hideous giant ax from the jewellery.

This is Zong Shen's own backup weapon—

—[Limo's Beheading Ax IV (Red)]

It belongs to a part of Li Mo's suit, and now it's just right for Clone No. 1 to use it next to him.

In addition, the avatar also prepared a set of orange-quality elf light armor.

With 65% of Zongshen's main body attributes, even without skills, he can defeat the undead monster with a rating of golden epic in front of him.

Blood came out from the ax body, and the clone rushed towards the skeleton knight.

The [Guardian Knight of the Lancaster Family: Gajeel Wade LV43 (Golden) (Dead State)] guarding above the entrance not far away also picked up the shield and lance.

The dust rustled down.

The scarlet soul fire flashed, and raised the spear to meet the clone number one rushing towards it.

Just when Clone No. 1 on the basement floor entered a fierce battle state.

Clone No. 2, guarding the first floor of the castle, also encountered new troubles.

At the same time, the door outside the bathroom was suddenly opened.

"Hey, dear Marquez, we can have a good time here."

"The inspection maid left here not long ago, and we can stay here for the next hour or two."

A familiar female voice came into the bathroom.

Zong Shen's face was covered with black lines.

This female voice is the voice of the maid who was having **** with the gardener just now.

Unexpectedly, less than two quarters of an hour later, she brought a new concubine, and returned here boldly.

From her words, it is not difficult to see that this guy has already grasped the essence of the dark under the lamp.

Someone has already passed by here just now, and there is a high probability that no one will come in a short time.

That's why he boldly returned to the scene.

"hey-hey."

"Phyllis, I will send you to the clouds!"

Another, younger male voice appeared.

An unsightly flirtation followed.

Zong Shen resisted the desire to beat them violently, and controlled clone No. 2 to stay in the bathroom.

I hope these two guys don't barge in unwisely, otherwise he can only let Clone No. 2 kill them and take away the corpse.

Someone missing inside the castle will definitely attract attention.

At that time, the fact that this secret passage was dug open is likely to be exposed.

This will affect Zong's plan!

On the one hand, he kept Clone No. 2 guarding the bathroom and arranging the [Mute Rune Stone], while on the other hand, he distractedly controlled Clone No. 1 and [Guardian Knight of the Lancaster Family: Gajeel Wade LV43] (Golden) (Dead State)] Fight!

A legend beats an epic is no less than a bully beats a son.

This is especially the case when there is no ethnic advantage on both sides.

The advantage of the undead body is that it has no fear, will not flinch~www.mtlnovel.com~ and can be immune to some control skills against living beings, but it does not have the talent for leapfrog fighting like a dragon.

However, this skeleton knight named Gajeel still showed a tenacious side.

It charged towards Clone No. 1 without fear.

Although it was swung away by the axe, the sweeping energy still caused hundreds of points of damage to the clone.

After that, he accurately resisted several times of slashing until the kite-shaped shield was completely broken.

After two or three minutes of fierce fighting, the clone emptied the guy's health.

After taking away the lance and soul orb.

Immediately afterwards, I opened the passage with [Master Key (Orange)] and went to the second basement floor!
