The King Next Door

Chapter 64 Please Knock on the Door

    In addition to the bone fragments, Wang Ye saw text engraved on two walls in the penultimate bedroom.

It seems that there are a lot of words, but most of them are nonsense to vent emotions, and there are completely confusing lines with no clear meaning.

The only thing that can be called meaningful is a sentence without beginning or end:

[I know the castle owner's plan, I want to participate, this is the only chance to survive, I can't be crazy. ]

What is the castle owner's plan?

Wang Ye was very curious.

He guessed that the people who were quarantined back then must have left a lot of important messages, but at that time civilization was developed, and paper or other recordable carriers should be used to record their mood and last words.

These things may be collected centrally, or they may be turned into ashes over the long years.

On the contrary, the inscription left on the wall by madness, and a bone fragment that became fossilized by coincidence and was probably hidden under the mattress have been left to this day for his descendants to see.

Wang Ye played with the ceramic pot on the table for a while, then put it down.

Ceramics are very common here, and besides furniture, the most preserved things.

Although these ceramic items are proper historical relics, if they are sold to related enthusiasts and researchers, such as Venerable Ma Ding, they will definitely be sold at a high price.

But Wang Ye is not interested in being an antique dealer. These ceramics are not as good as those furniture in his eyes. At least the wood of the furniture can be used by him as a material for special purposes.

Wang Ye left the second basement floor and stepped onto the first basement floor.

This time he didn't avoid the corridors on both sides, but walked in.

He went to the corridor on the right first.

It is still a door, the number is not as many as downstairs, and the distance between the doors is not equal, which shows that the rooms in the corridor are different in size.

But this time it's not a mushroom door, but a serious wooden door.

These woods are all comparable to metal, even harder than the hardest alloy steel on earth, and cannot be easily opened.

What's more, these wooden doors and door frames seem to have been integrated into one, and a clear outline can be seen, but no gaps can be found.

Even the door frames merge with the stone walls.

Wang Ye looked up at the wood chips inlaid on the wooden door.

Words were engraved on the wood chip, and the identification result was "Eleven".

Wang Ye looked at the pieces of wood on other wooden doors, and they were all numbers.

From beginning to end, there are fifteen rooms in total.

Wang Ye looked at the corridor on the left again. The rooms on this side were also numbered, from sixteen to thirty.

There are equal numbers of rooms on both sides of the corridor.

How to get into these rooms?

Wang Ye tried to push, but these wooden doors were much colder than the mushroom doors, and they didn't intend to open them at all.

Wang Ye stared at the wooden door for a while.

Violent destruction is never a good idea.

He didn't enter the corridors on both sides to check before, not only because of Lao Zong's warning, but also because of his intuition.

Danger! The corridors on both sides cannot enter!

But after he was included in the ruins, the danger alert that had been highlighted in red turned into a yellow one, it's best not to enter.

Outsiders can't enter casually, so if one of our own people wants to go in and have a look, what should they do?

What do normal people do when they see a closed door when they visit someone's house?

Wang Ye raised his hand.

"Dong dong." There was a dull knock on the door.

"...Who?" A questioning voice came from the door.

Wang Ye blinked slowly, "Lei Ye, fort patroller."

"Is there something wrong?" asked the door.

Wang Ye: "Check."

Two seconds later, the door in front of Wang Ye, which had been integrated with the wall, opened silently.

It was dark inside.

Just when Wang Ye was about to go in and have a look, there was a sound of footsteps.

Accompanied by the voice of speaking.

"I saw that the people in Feiqi City went upstairs, and everyone else went upstairs. Let's try to hurry up and find out the situation below before those people finish exploring the upstairs and go downstairs." The young voice .

"Master Jack Ming, you are still the best, use Feiqi City to attract the attention of Ma Ding and others." Hoarse voice.

"It's not great, I just don't want to run into them. It's up to you to find out how valuable this relic is, and whether you can get the first excavation right. It's a bit weird here, everyone, be careful. Pay attention to each other, don't be left alone." The voice of the old man.

"yes."

The speakers compliment each other and come out from the stairwell.

Bang, the door closed in front of Wang Ye.

Wang Ye looked at the closed gate, then at the orcs who ran out, and slowly backed away, hiding his body in the darkness.

A group of about ten orcs entered the hall. They also brought lighting tools, which made the originally dark space much brighter.

The wooden bed in the hall was taken away by Wang Ye a long time ago, and it was empty.

The old orc surrounded by orcs walked around the hall before giving up researching here, leading the orcs to the corridor on the left.

They stopped in front of the first door, seemingly studying how to open the wooden door.

Master Jack Ming asked others to check other places.

Two orcs walk into the corridor on the right.

They moved forward, and Wang Ye retreated.

"Did you hear anything?" An orc with canine ears moved his ears.

His companion also stopped, holding up the sun mushroom for lighting: "No, I didn't hear anything." The

dog-eared orc stared at the darkness ahead, "Do you think there seems to be someone watching over there?" Us?"

"Where did they come from?" The orc with small ears seemed a little scared, and said loudly, "We are the only ones here." "

Then let's look further." The dog-eared orc went on Walk.

The little-eared orc swallowed silently, carried the Sunshine Mushroom and followed his companion forward.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, and he also began to feel that there seemed to be something in the darkness in front of him, and that thing was looking at them.

"There is no way ahead. This is the same as the corridor over there. There are closed wooden doors. Let's go back." The little-eared orc said impatiently.

The dog-eared orc's ears turned, and he always felt that he heard something. His family's hearing was already excellent, and he was even the best in the family.

But they were indeed coming to an end, and the Sunshine Mushroom illuminated a wall.

Light and darkness intersect, and there seems to be a face slowly protruding from the edge.

The little-eared orc immediately turned to the Sunshine Mushroom, he didn't want to scare himself because of psychological effects.

The dog-eared orc saw that his companions had turned around, but he didn't see anything unusual, so he turned around and followed his companions.

At the end of the corridor, Wang Ye was looking at the depression at the corner of the wall.

If he hadn't been hiding from people, he might have missed this depression because of poor vision.

This depression is difficult to find if you don't go to the end of the corridor and look at the corner of the wall.

And this depression turned out to be a very slender window almost like a floor-to-ceiling window. The part that fell to the ground was the window sill, and the depression in the middle was the window.

If you stand on the window sill, close to the window, people walking straight all the way will not find this blind spot, nor will you see the person standing on the window sill, just be careful of the shadow.

Fortunately, the two orcs just held up the Sunshine Mushroom to take a picture and did not examine it carefully, otherwise they would have seen a shadow merge with the darkness projected by the wall.

Are windows located in the basement necessary?

This window, like the windows of the isolation room on the second basement floor, was sealed by tree roots.

The roots are gray and black, with a little oily sheen, as if they are dead.

Wang Ye reached out to touch the roots of the tree, and felt the exuberant vitality.

The two buff effects of "Love of the Tree of Life" and "Love of the High Priest Mu Shou" are automatically activated at the same time.

Wang Ye felt that his palm was pushed slightly.

Then, he was pushed a somersault and almost fell from the window sill.

The tree roots retracted back into the window, perfectly fulfilling the duty of sealing the window. The top just now seemed to be just a small joke.

"Hello, my name is Lei Ye, how about you?" Wang Ye said his spiritual power.

Tree Root didn't know whether he didn't want to pay attention to him, or he wasn't fully conscious, so he didn't reply.

Wang Ye wanted to try again, when he heard movement from the stairwell again.

Someone else came down.

The orcs on Master Jack Ming's side also heard the voice, and quickly put on a stance against the enemy.

Wang Ye temporarily gave up testing the roots, he heard a familiar voice.

The person who came was Chong Lao, with an ox plow and a dull hair.

Several other players followed behind him, among them was Tan Feijian.

This time Tan Feijian did not get separated from his teammates. When he followed Uncle Kun, his teammates also followed him.

Tan Feijian doesn't like one of his teammates very much. In the last game, he really wanted to join his teammate, but in this game he just wanted to stay away from his teammate.

It's a pity that he just caught up with Uncle Kun, and his teammates followed him as if they didn't know that he was going to get rid of them, and caused him a little trouble.

Because of the movements of these people, his sneaky follow failed, and Uncle Kun found them.

Uncle Kun stood still at the door of the stairwell, signaling that they could go first.

Tan Feijian saw that the rabbit man disappeared after entering the stairwell, but Uncle Kun stood still at the door of the stairwell, and he didn't want to move either.

His teammates sprayed Uncle Kun directly, asking him if he wanted them to help him find the way with his life, and laughed at Uncle Kun for thinking too beautifully.

Tan Feijian saw that his teammate didn't recognize Uncle Kun, and didn't want to remind him.

He hated this teammate and wished he would die quickly.

But Uncle Kun was so generous that he didn't do anything, and just let them do whatever they wanted.

Just as they were debating whether to enter the stairwell, the hall suddenly became chaotic.

The people from Feiqi City came, and were called out by Chairman Ma Ding.

In the chaos, someone ran towards the stairwell, and Tan Feijian's teammates were also led into the stairwell.

After that, Uncle Kun and the two people he brought also entered the stairwell.

Tan Feijian's teammates subconsciously ran upstairs.

Uncle Kun seemed to be taking the two of them downstairs.

Seeing this, Tan Feijian insisted on going upstream to catch up with Uncle Kun.

His teammates followed suit.

Coming out of the stairwell, they saw a large number of stones.

The body of this floor collapsed, and most of the places were blocked by stones.

They walked around the place where people could walk, and found nothing unusual, so they went back to the stairwell and tried to go to other floors.

This time they came out of the stairwell and saw someone other than themselves.

It's an orc, not a player.

Tan Feijian and others immediately became wary.

The same goes for the orcs over there.

The atmosphere on both sides is very tense, and a fight can start at any time.

At the same time, someone who was running upstairs touched an item. Immediately, all players who had not received the main mission were notified by the system that their mission was activated.

[After a large number of adventurers entered this ancient ruins that had been buried underground for thousands of years, someone awakened the existence that should not be awakened. The relic has been hungry for a long time, and it doesn't want the living to leave its territory. Attention all players, please bring any item in the ruins before the ruins are fully awake, and try to escape from this ancient ruins alive. According to calculations, the ruins still have 70 hours to fully wake up. ]

[Warning! If the ruins are completely awakened, the difficulty of this game will go directly from level 4 to level 11. ]

[Those who successfully escape from the ruins with more than one relic item, the basic reward value is 20,000 points of game currency. Also comes with a special buff item "Flying Leather Boots". ]

[The countdown starts now. 】

The players are frowning and swearing. Level 4 difficulty jumps directly to level 11 hell-level difficulty. What is the difference between this and forcing all players to be wiped out?

But just looking at the task content, within 70 hours, take any item in the ruins and leave the ruins immediately. This doesn't look too difficult.

The players immediately looked around, looking for anything around them that they could take out.

But this ancient ruins seemed to have been cleaned up by someone, only the hardware was left, and there were no other sundries, not even a piece of fallen gravel.

Speaking of gravel, Tan Feijian and other players still regretted it. They should just pick up a random piece and put it in the space backpack. Maybe those stones can also be regarded as relics.

Wang Ye was not far from these players. He saw the newly refreshed mainline mission from the background, and wondered if he should sympathize with these players.

It is not easy to take away the things in this ruin.

Oh, not necessarily, he took away those wooden beds, and the ruins didn't seem to respond much?

Wait, who said no response?

At first, the old ghost of Qujiang just followed him, but shortly after he took away the wooden bed, he chopped off his rabbit's head.

As for why Quejiang didn't take the wooden bed back to its original place, it's probably because for the ruins, everyone died here, and all the things they carried on their bodies were naturally left in the ruins. It doesn't matter whether the wooden bed is put back to its original position ?

While Wang Ye was still thinking about the existence that was talking to him in the wooden door, and how to take out the things in the ruins, there was already a fight outside.

Master Jack Ming said that the development of the ruins should be done on a first-come-first-served basis. There are already three known groups of people who have come to the ruins. In order to avoid uneven distribution of spoils, everyone assumes that whoever arrives at a certain place first will have priority research in that place. right.

The two gangs of Chong Lao and Tan Feijian understood, and the orcs on the opposite side were driving them away.

"If the first-come, first-served rule worked, there wouldn't be so many people in this building now." Tan Feijian's teammate stood up and said.

"That's right! This place is so big, why should you come here first? This is a land without an owner, and no one can say who is the owner." "Besides us, there are other

people in this ancient ruins. Are you really Do you want to waste your time and energy on fighting us? There is only a slight difference in the number of our two sides. If we fight, we may end up losing both sides. If someone else comes over by then..." The talking player spread his hands:

" Are you willing to capture and kill without a fight at that time, and give all the treasures you haven't found to newcomers?"

Jack Ming and other orcs also knew this truth, seeing that they couldn't scare these hairless people away, the two sides simply divided the area, each find each.

It happened that Jack Ming and the others were worrying about how to open these doors. If those hairless people could figure out a way, they could also learn from it.

After the two parties negotiated, the corridor on the left belongs to Jack Ming and other orcs, and the corridor on the right belongs to the players.

Seeing that the orcs were suppressed and the right to develop a corridor was obtained, Tan Feijian's teammates were a little proud.

They immediately told the three of Zong Lao that because their people were negotiating just now, the three of you didn't help with anything, so they can only allocate three of the fifteen rooms to them.

Tan Feijian wondered whether he should disclose Uncle Kun's identity.

But Uncle Kun didn't seem to mind at all that he could only have the right to develop three rooms, so he agreed and asked Tan Feijian's teammates to choose the room first.

There were only five of Tan Feijian's teammates plus Tan Feijian, and they didn't want to offend the other three players to death, so they allocated the three rooms at the end to them.

The main reason is that the end of the corridor is too dark, and I always feel that the lights can't shine in. Tan Feijian's teammates subconsciously want to avoid that side.

Uncle Kun waved to Niuli and Daimao, strode past Tan Feijian's teammates and walked towards the end of the corridor.

Seeing that nothing happened, Tan Feijian didn't say anything after all.

Next, the three parties began to show their magical powers how to open the wooden door that was integrated with the wall.

The easiest way is to force it open.

But anyone who has this idea and puts it into practice has suffered a lot.

No matter what kind of weapon or ability it is, as long as it hits the wooden door, it will all be bounced back.

Or double the rebound.

Who would have thought that a wooden door could have such a trick?

All those who tried to forcefully break the door were injured, and those who were unlucky were directly injured until they were seriously injured.

Wang Ye found that the old ghost Quejiang he was pulling with the causal line was walking towards this floor.

He tries to use causal threads to pull him somewhere else.

But Quejiang, as if he sensed where the living things were, stubbornly rushed to the basement floor where there were a lot of living things.

Seeing that Wang Ye couldn't hold back the other party, he was also very helpless.

The energy level he has cultivated now is about between level 4 and level 5. Leaving aside the spiritual power, the strength that this ghost can display is at least level 8.

Fortunately, Old Man Chong is also here. If it really doesn't work, let Old Man Chong deal with this ghost.

But if possible, Wang Ye didn't want Chong Lao to face the old ghost Que Jiang.

Without him, if you hit the young one, you will inevitably come to the old one.

They beat up other people's home guards in other people's territory. Will the owner of the territory be willing?

This is a powerful existence that can raise the difficulty of the game from level four to level eleven after fully waking up.

Although they will have 70 hours to spare, the ruins just haven't woken up completely, it doesn't mean that it is still sleeping, what if the old man is staring at the ruins?

Wang Ye didn't want to take this risk. While slowing down Quejiang's pace with the causal line, he was thinking about how to help Chong Lao and the others complete the task.

Maybe you can try to ask the old man to bring a few wooden beds and find the way out?

But he was also afraid that the gun would hit the head of the bird. If the ruins stared at the old man because of those wooden beds, it would be a real injustice.

"Ah!" An extremely shrill scream exploded.

The orc who blew up the door with explosives was blown to pieces.

Master Jack Ming was in a mess and quickly rescued his companions.

Tan Feijian's teammates saw that forcibly breaking the door would not work, and wanted to use corrosive potions, but they were afraid that this would also rebound.

After discussing with these guys, they actually planned to "persuade" the three old people to try.

Tan Feijian: I will see how you seek death.

Tan Feijian couldn't continue watching. In the eyes of others, he and these players belonged together, and it was impossible for Uncle Kun not to blame him.

"Don't go over and trouble people, and be polite to them. Do you know who that handsome uncle is?" Tan Feijian, who has always been low-key, said.

His teammates looked at him together: "Who is he? Did you recognize him?"

Tan Feijian didn't hide anything: "Uncle Kun, the master rankings are always in the top ten."

Some of his teammates gasped, while others showed excitement.

"Fuck! I didn't expect the Great God to be by my side."

A player who deliberately permed his curly hair said to Tan Feijian, "No wonder you ignored us. You followed these three from the beginning of the game. It turned out that you planned to hug your thighs." , but I don't intend to bring my companions with me."

Tan Feijian's eyes were cold, and he almost blurted out: Yes, I just don't want to bring you, especially you.

But his experience in the game made it impossible for him to be so reckless. If he didn't say anything, everyone could still maintain a superficial peace, and they would think more about backstabbing. But if he said so, he would have to beware of his teammates as well as his enemies.

Although the current situation is not very good, at least Cui Yubi is the only teammate who is hostile to him.

Wang Ye touched the thick thread on his neck.

The old ghost sparrow river is here.

Is he going to see the old man worm?

Would the old man believe it if he said that the thread around his neck was just a decoration?

There was a new news from Grandmaster Jack Ming, Jack Ming made a move himself, he can be called a master, naturally because he has a master-level unique ability.
