Chapter 1228: Shia Temple
With a sharp sound of metal rubbing, Goss disappeared from Su Xiao's sight again.
Su Xiao himself was currently hanging from a rope and slowly walked down with the rest of the group.
----
A few dozen seconds later.
*Boom!*
A loud noise came from below. Goss must have hit rock bottom.
Soon, Su Xiao and the group reached the bottom of the metal shaft. Goss wasn't hurt. Before landing, he repeated Su Xiao's action and stabbed his knight's sword into the metal wall, allowing him to land safely.
After reaching the bottom of the mine, Su Xiao looked around. A metal door was installed at the bottom of the shaft. This metal door was engraved with unknown patterns and didn't show a trace of rust, and there was a round hole in the center of it.
This circular hole was about fifty centimeters deep, and there was a metal rod inside it. It must have been the mechanism that was supposed to open this metal door.
Su Xiao pulled out the Dragon Flash and scabbard and slammed on the door.
*Ding*
Sparks landed on the floor, and a shallow dent formed in the door. It was very strong, but not because of the composition, but because of some kind of energy that protected this door.
Su Xiao could destroy it, but it would take him at least a few hours, if not more.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao's left hand, wrapped in a metal armband, poked through the round hole of the metal door. At the same time, he pressed the Dragon Flash blade to his left hand. As soon as something goes wrong, he will give up his hand. As for why he didn't tell Goss to check this hole, it was very simple — Su Xiao didn't trust him.
Su Xiao's hand grabbed onto the iron rod in the hole, and a wave of energy immediately enveloped his hand.
*Boom!*
An unknown energy began to rage violently and began to push Su Xiao's left arm out of the hole.
As he flexed his numb left arm, he realized that opening this door required royal blood, so he looked at Eliza Herbert.
Elise noticed Su Xiao's gaze. She glanced at it first, then looked at the round hole. After looking back and forth a few times, she quickly shook her head as if her head was a rattle.
— Open it.
— I do not want.
— You don't have the right to say no».
— I will not.
A few seconds later, Su Xiao was standing in front of Goss, and Amu was carrying Elise to the door.
— Your Highness! Goss roared. His expression changed endlessly. Although he wanted to stop Ama, there was nothing he could do. He was weaker than Su Xiao and couldn't disobey the royal family's orders.
Su Xiao looked at Elise, who was currently trying to break out of Amu's grip. He realized that continuing like this wasn't the best choice. Perhaps in the future, it will need to discover many mechanisms that will be much more complex.
After signaling Amu to let Elise go and asking Amu and Bubtney to take Goss away, Su Xiao walked over to Elise and looked her straight in the eye.
She immediately looked away.
Su Xiao grabbed her chin and said, " Look at my eyes.
— Too much... It's too dark, I can't see anything.
It was worth admitting that Elise was not only useless, but also unruly.
— I need your help right now.
Since Su Xiao was a master of psychological torture, he had a way to tame Elise.
— Pra... Really? Eliza Herbert's cheeks were slightly flushed. She was very nervous. She had never seen anyone need her, and she felt a little uneasy about being so close to a man.
— Really, " Su Xiao replied. He had already prepared a series of excuses, but this cute princess was so easily deceived that all these excuses were simply unnecessary.
Most of the princes and princesses had all sorts of talents, but even if they weren't outstanding people, they at least knew how to manage the territory together with the people living in it, however, there was a princess like Eliza Herbert among them.
She stood out as much as a husky stood out among ordinary police dogs.
After the king found out about the situation in her territory, the first thing he thought was, " Is she really my daughter? How can my daughter be such a loser? The Queen cheated on me? Or did something happen during pregnancy?»
— Then... why are we here? Elise asked in confusion.
— We're here... Su Xiao couldn't tell that he was looking for a key. Although this was what he had come to this place for, such a goal didn't sound very grand and righteous.
— Your father is dead, " Su Xiao said loudly, causing Elise and Goss to be stunned. — Before he died, he entrusted me with a task: I must find something under the throne. This subject is very important. I can't tell you the details, but you need to keep one thing in mind: your father trusted you very much, so he told me to find you and come down to the throne with you.
The King did tell the Iron Hand to go down to the throne with Eliza Herbert before he died. As for him trusting her, that was just a sweet lie for this silly cute princess.
— Really? "but Elise obviously believed it, while Goss didn't. He even wanted to shout angrily, " Your Highness, don't believe these devilish lies!».
— In that case… Then it can't be helped, " Elise's small white fists clenched, and a sense of responsibility appeared in her heart. Goss, on the other hand, had a look of despair on his face, and his mouth kept opening and closing. If he wasn't her guardian knight, he would definitely be growling right now: "Are you mentally retarded? Did you really believe such a lie?».
With a smile on his face, Su Xiao turned his head and looked at Goss. Bubtney and Amu also looked at Goss with him, and their expressions gradually started to turn cold. Anyone could tell that they were trying to say something like, " We'll kill you if you dare to say something against us."».
A few seconds later, the man, dog, and bull turned to look at Elise with gentle expressions on their faces, and Bubtney could even be seen in their eyes... promotion?
— I can handle it, " Elise said, and took a few deep breaths, and her trembling little hand reached through the round hole and gripped the iron rod.
Energy surged through the hole, and Elise immediately felt a tingling sensation on her arm.
*Click... Click...*
The metal door's mechanism kicked in, and Elise snatched her hand away.
With a bang, the metal door opened, revealing a view of a dark corridor.
— Well done, " Su Xiao said, and patted Eliza Herbert on the shoulder. She looked a little sad right now. Although she felt that she should have helped, she felt pain because of the strange energy, and she was very much afraid of pain.
Su Xiao threw the fluorescent wand into the dark corridor in front of him.
This corridor was made of dark red stones and led straight ahead. Although it was deep underground, there wasn't much oxygen available here.
*Knock, knock, knock...*
There was a faint thud from the front, and the source of that sound was quite far away from the entrance.
Su Xiao took the lead and stepped out into the corridor.
As soon as he took a couple of steps forward, a notification from Heaven appeared in front of him.
[
Hunter entered the hidden area, Shiite Temple / Tomb of the Undead.
The Shia Temple is a very dangerous area, and the rewards obtained in this place, including chests and the Source of Peace, will be improved by 20%.
