Chapter 630
Chapter 630
As we walked forward, the luxury hotel with red brick buildings gradually turned into a cheap wooden hotel. Soon after, Rocky stopped in his tracks.
In front of the narrow alley is a small space surrounded by buildings.
Dirty equipment was piled up in a mess in the corner of the space, and there was a single stone hut built there.
“We’ve surveyed almost everything on the street… and here’s the only one left.”
After finishing speaking, Loki stretched out his hand to pull the heavy wooden door.
She thought that there must be a lock, but she didn’t expect that there would be no resistance when she pulled it. She just pulled the rusty iron door knocker, and the door was slowly opened with a low friction sound.
There was nothing inside the hut, except for a spiral staircase leading to the bottom of the floor.
She stepped on it without hesitation, made a “click” sound, and stepped down the stairs.
After walking a few times along the spiral, Loki and Bert came to the dark underground sewer.
Seeing that things were getting more and more troublesome, Burt muttered wearily.
“I should really give this kind of errand to Raul or someone else…”
“Although Raul has done many things, he is not a tool man. Don’t leave everything to him, Bert.”
“Oh, you asked him to clean the restaurant yesterday.”
The small magic stone lamp whose lifespan is nearing the end, the sound of water flowing in the ear, and the sewer where endless darkness spreads.
“Okay, okay, I will definitely reward you later, no matter which girl I will introduce to you.”
“No need, just give me wine.”
“Did you guess it in advance… It’s really good, Burt.”
“Tsk…”
Burt, who didn’t expect to guess correctly, curled his lips.
Loki took out a portable magic stone lamp from the cloth bag he was carrying and lit it. Lighting fixtures somewhat resembling kerosene lanterns immediately illuminate the surrounding dark space.
“Diona and Dione helped me investigate on the day of the celebration, but it’s better to be careful, they are just chasing the traces of those monsters, maybe there is something they missed’ 々.”
“Let those two brainless Amazons check it out. There are definitely too many things missing.”
After advancing through the narrow passage for a while, the two came to the broad main waterway with gurgling water.
This is a tubular tunnel made of stone with a diameter of about six meters.
There is water running through the center, and there are footsteps and passages on both sides of the tunnel for people to move forward.
Loki and the others walked along the narrow passage on the right side of the sewer.
The sound of running water was loud enough to hinder the conversation between the two.
The branch waterways converged from various places, making the sound of the water seem to echo layer upon layer in the sewer.
But on the other hand, although the air in the sewer is indeed turbid than the ground, it doesn’t have the peculiar smell of sewage.
Loki used a magic stone lamp to illuminate the front, and placed several crystal pillars emitting blue-purple radiance in the ditch of the slender branched water channel.
Its shape is like an iron fence. It does not intercept the water, but allows the water to pass directly. It is one of the magic stone products that the labyrinth city [Olalie] is proud of.
The purification columns juxtaposed at intervals like fences can purify the flowing sweat and turn it into clean water.
In other words, it is a water purification device.
The water in the ditch is so transparent and clear that it cannot be imagined to be the sweat discharged from the urban area.
This kind of purification fence set up in various parts of the waterway prevents the sewer from being stinky, and can also avoidPolluted to the southwest brackish lake that the sewer leads to.
“He really knows how to invent some convenient tools.”
Loki admires the residents of the lower realm.
“However, this pile of intricate passages, and this atmosphere…it’s really a bit like an underground city…”
“how is this possible.”
Bert, who got into the real labyrinth every day, scoffed at Loki’s speech.
He laughed at the artificial maze to the extent that he wanted to call it a dungeon. It’s really ignorant.
There are countless horizontal roads and stairs on the wall, as well as a bridge on the opposite bank.
Burt explored the dark sewers with ease, and whenever Loki encountered danger, he immediately repelled it.
Perhaps it came upstream from the brackish lake via the sea. The fish monster “surprise fish” once jumped out of the water to attack, but was immediately kicked to death by Bert.
The series of scenes that cannot be discerned by the naked eye caused Loki, who opened his mouth roundly, to shout “Come on~” and admire him endlessly.
The magic stone lamp held by Loki illuminates the surroundings with an oval light, and two figures are reflected on the wall.
The shadow of Burt with ears and tail elongated to the rear, just forming a silhouette like a ferocious wolf.
“Oh?”
She investigated every corner of the sewer by touching around, and after a while.
In front of Loki and the others, an iron door that they hadn’t seen so far appeared.
This is an old double door with a long history.
A large heavy lock was installed on the door, tightly sealing the left and right doors.
“What is this?”
“It seems to be an old-fashioned…underground waterway.”
Loki could barely make out the blurred writing on the metal plate mounted on the wall.
It seems that it is related to the reconstruction of the waterway. This place was abandoned a long time ago.
But it really is a weird door. While doubting the engineering staff’s head, she brought the light closer to the door.
The dimly illuminated part left signs of use on the big black lock that closed the door, and it was opened and locked several times by human hands.
“It’s a bit suspicious…”
Loki slightly opened his thin eyes and whispered softly.
Maybe it can be explained that the guild that manages the city went in to handle business, but at least Loki started to take an interest in what was behind the door.
Bert, who was winked by Loki, lazily grasped the door lock with both hands to make it creak.
In just a few moments, he easily broke the door lock, followed by a crisp sound (by Li Qian).
He threw away the heavy piece of iron that was broken in half and opened the door directly.
Logically speaking, it is an old waterway that no one is using, but there are magic stone lamps installed above the wall, and there are little phosphorescent lights.
“Hey, the celery is soaked in water!”
In front of the steps in front of the door, including passages and waterways, were all flooded.
Looking at the dark and rippling water surface like a river in the dark night, Burt twisted the corners of his mouth.
Loki took a light with the magic stone lamp and confirmed that the depth of the water was about the same as the shoal, then turned to look at Burt.
“Bert, I don’t want to get my shoes wet, do you understand me?”
“…”
Bert, who was being ridden, moved towards the water with a face of reluctance.
The water level was as high as near the calf, submerging half of the metal boots used as equipment.
The old-style underground waterways with various waterways criss-crossing each other are more complicated and labyrinthine than the current sewers we visited just now. .
