nKant looked at the gradually dissipating spirit body and could not help but frown.

nThe mages around him looked like they were facing a great enemy. They scanned their surroundings vigilantly. Their spiritual perception abilities had reached its limit. It was clear that they had sensed that this dissipating spirit body actually contained the essence of some kind of rule.

nHowever, nothing unexpected happened.

nEven the Rhodok sergeants, who had used their weapons to chop the old lich into minced meat, did not sense any abnormalities.

nA slightly warm breeze blew past.

nIt circled the entire hall, rushed out of the alley, and disappeared into the karst cave.

nAs for the stone platform, the black smoke and golden light that appeared from the old lich’s body completely disappeared. It was just like the breeze that blew past just now dispersed the old lich’s spirit body.

nEverything was normal.

nThere was no danger.

nKant turned his head and looked at the mages who had regained their calmness.

nNoticing Kant’s gaze, they also nodded and said, “We’re safe now.”

n“How strange.”

nKant retracted his gaze and looked at the hall full of skeletons.

nOn the stone platform, the chopped corpse was still thrown there and stained the golden chair. It looked quite dirty, but Kant did not care. He waved his hand and ordered Rhodok sergeants, “Seize those gold items immediately!”

n“Understood.”, Rhodok sergeants nodded and immediately stepped forward.

nMany gold items were taken by them.

nEspecially the golden chair, the golden scepter, and the tattered golden silk clothes.

nEven the golden statue on the wall behind them, which was about half a meter long and had an arrow at its waist, was taken down by the Rhodok sergeants.

nThe hall of the temple had a lot of gold items.

n“Hurry up!”

nThe captain of the Rhodok sergeants urged.

nThere were a lot of heavy gold items, and the skeletons under their feet were crispy. If one stepped on them, they would sink a few centimeters into the skeletons.

nAfter all, after tens of thousands of years, even with the protection of the mysterious power, these bones were no longer as strong as before. When they were stepped on, the half-meter-deep layer of bones immediately made a cracking sound, it was obvious that the layer of bones at the bottom could not withstand the force, and the bones began to crack.

nThe small bone fragments mixed with dust began to spread into the air along with their movements. The entire hall was quite suffocating. As a lord with high status, Kant naturally did not need to stay here personally.

nStanding at the top of the pyramid outside, he looked down at the underground city.

nThe design was as neat as a chessboard.

nEven the city walls were square, just enough to wrap the underground city inside.

nThe central avenue led from the main entrance to the pyramid temple below. Although the houses on both sides were in ruins, the once luxurious appearance of the remaining walls and scattered houses could be vaguely seen. It was obviously the residence of a noble.

nAmong the many houses on both sides, there were also markets and other facilities.

nThis included public bathhouses and public toilets for hygiene purpose.

n“This is a high level civilization.”

nKant secretly admired the city and looked down from above. Just based on the planning and design of the city, he could not help but praise it. As expected of the developed era of the gods. Not to mention the buildings, even the entire city was better than the most brilliant and bustling Leoheart City in Kant’s opinion, and it was even cleaner and tidier, fully reflecting the appearance of a high-level civilized city.

nJust inside the city wall, he also saw the training ground, which was used as a military camp. There were many warrior statues on it, just like the warrior statues carved out of rocks in the ruins of the temple at the top of the mountain.

nIf he wanted to, this underground city would immediately be an ideal base for transferring residents.

nHowever, the shortcomings were too big.

nKant raised his head and looked at the glowing rock wall.

nHe shook his head and threw this idea out. He sighed slightly and said, “There is no production here. Even if we occupy it, it will not bring any benefits. Occupying it now will only be a waste of resources.”

nThis place was not even considered a military important place.

nEven if Kant chose to give up, it would be fine to just guard the ruins on the mountain peak.

nEven if there were unknown enemies here, such as these demons, he could just send troops to attack from time to time. They would let the enemies appear from the dark, making this underground city the enemy’s stronghold, it would also become Kant’s training area. As long as the enemy did not take over the entire ancient passage, there would be no danger.

nThat was why Kant said it was a pity.

nIf there were enemies here, it would be good if it became a long-term training ground.

nThen Kant would have a reason to occupy this place.

nIt was a pity that there were no enemies.

nThere was only a subterranean river that originated from the “Aaron” Village. It flowed slowly and turned into the east at an angle of more than 90 degrees. According to Kant’s map concept, it should have entered the territory of the Dukedom of Leo’s East County.

nThe ancient passage was also built. Just like a partner, it was built parallel to the subterranean river and headed to the east.

n“I’ll explore it again in the future.”

nKant’s heart was calm.

nHe had just finished dealing with this underground city. He did not have the experience to continue exploring the unknown region.

nWhen the old lich’s spirit dissipated, he gave Kant a quest.

nOr rather, it was a side quest that the system took the opportunity to form.

n Ding… Side quest issued

n Side quest: Last wish

n Reward: Spring eye X 1

n Introduction: You found this spirit in the temple. It originated from the ancient survivors from thousands of years ago. He told you his last wish. You plan to follow this wish and go to the depths of the desert in the north. After all, the sandstorm that appeared in the depths of the desert is now shrouding your heart.

nThis was what the system’s mission interface explained.

nKant naturally didn’t have a choice.

nIt was just shifting the exploration area from the buried city to the depths of the desert.

nThe mission reward was a spring eye.

nIt was also what Kant wanted.

n“Drondheim” Castle had max out the level.

nHowever, the construction of the estate was incomplete. For example, the fresh water that nourished the desert, as well as the livestock industry and agriculture that the castle currently had, all required a large amount of fresh water. Even the cultivation of sand-proof forests, such as those date palm trees, required a large amount of water resources. Otherwise, there was nothing much to talk about the desert.

nWater was the source of all living things. This saying was absolutely true.

nWhile he was thinking, footsteps could be heard coming from the passageway beside the stone door.

nRhodok sergeants carefully carried the heavy golden chair. Although it could only fit one person, this chair had a base. Just by looking at the exquisite carvings on it, one could tell that an ordinary person was not allowed to sit on it.

nThis chair was obviously similar to a throne. It was definitely an item that only a top-tier superior could use.

nKant was definitely qualified to use it.

nReaching out his hand to hold this exquisite and priceless golden chair, he frowned slightly.

nThe system did not give a hint that it could be absorbed.

nObviously, this was not a strange item.

nHowever, Kant raised his head and asked the sergeants, “I remember that the old man had a golden scepter in his hand. It was even shot out by a ranger’s arrow. Did you find it?”

n“Yes.”

nThe soldier replied, “Lord, it’s at the back.”

nIn the alley, the soldiers carrying the statue also walked out.

nOne of them was holding the golden scepter in his hand.

nKant’s heart palpitated slightly. At such a close distance, looking at the scepter engraved with countless minute scared sun patterns, and the diamond-shaped crystal that have been cut into 32 sides, it showed its extraordinary value.

nAmong the patterns engraved on it, golden light would flash within it frequently.

nKant raised his eyebrows.

nAlthough he had not touched it yet, he was sure that this was a strange object!

nA magic item from this world!

nReaching out to hold it, a dialog box immediately popped up on his retina.

n Ding… unknown strange object discovered

n You can let the system absorbs it and obtain honor points, or sell it to a merchant in exchange for denar.

nThe system gave a hint.

nKant was curious.

nAt that time, when the system encountered these strange items, it would immediately give out special quest.

n Ding… system prompt

n Currently, the system has obtained the rules of this world. It has completed a part of the analysis, so it doesn’t need too many strange items. The host is advised to keep them and use them after the system appraises them. The appraisal method is to absorb them, and you can get them again through the system mall’s lucky draw.

nThe system noticed Kant’s confusion and then popped up the dialog box.

nHowever, Kant shook his head.

nHe had already understood it.

nFor example, the two pages of rare items and the sun disk were obtained through a lucky draw after the system had absorbed them.

nHowever, those were all special circumstances.

nNow that they were easily absorbed by the system, it was estimated that if Kant entered the system mall for a lucky draw, it would be hard to say if he would be able to obtain them. It would be better to keep them. If they were to encounter difficulties in the future, Kant could exchange it for honor points and denars at any time to alleviate the crisis they were facing.

nKant and the others moved quickly.

nThe entire temple was basically emptied.

nThey even found hidden storeroom at the back doors of the temple. There were many gold utensils inside.

nThey were all bowls and cups made of gold, and some were even candlesticks.

nIt seemed like they were used by the higher-ups. There were mysterious sacred sun patterns carved on them. They were very well-made, but they were generally thin and small. Therefore, the total weight of all the gold items they obtained could not even compare to that magic staff, it could only be considered as a consolation prize.

nOf course, as long as it was gold, it was fine. Kant was not picky about food. He was now equivalent to a teenager, and he urgently needed a large amount of nutrition to replenish his body. Moreover, he still owed the system 120,000 denars. This was the amount of the loan that he needed to repay!

nThe Rhodok sergeants had properly packed the seized items.

nThe agile Ravenstern rangers were also sent to do a little search in the entire buried city.

nUnfortunately, they did not find any valuable items.

nIf they searched carefully, they might be able to find hidden valuable items in the hidden areas of the house. However, Kant obviously did not have the time. After knowing that the search was fruitless, he gave the order to leave.

nThey had already stayed in this karst cave for nearly four days.

nIt even took Kant a whole week to come from “Drondheim” Castle.

nIt would take another day and night to go back to “Aaron” through the ancient passage.

nTime waits for no man.

nDevelopment is the most important principle.

n“Let’s go.”, Kant rode his horse in front and led his troops back.

nHowever, he still looked at the cave full of shimmering moss and fluorescent mushrooms with some nostalgia. The scenery was very beautiful. If he waited for his development to stabilize, he would come back to see where the other ancient passage connected to this cave led to, would there be new demons appearing.

nKant was not afraid of a situation like this!
