Chapter 781 – Secret Treasures
An Zheng looked at the Left Sword Spirit on the ground, whose skull was already turned into mush. He heaved a sigh of relief.
He turned around and wanted to carry one of them, but he found that it was too heavy for him to move. In other words, when the magic array was not activated, there was an inexplicably huge suction force that sucked these iron men into the layer of metal outside the surface of the ground.
It seemed that the formation’s true control was not the matchbox sized item in Zuo Jianling’s hand. An Zheng calculated the time, because the formation had been activated previously, the auras inside the courtyard had been sealed, which was also the reason why the Left was preparing to protect this secret base from being discovered. Thus, right now, An Zheng had the time to check this place out.
The reason why the Left Sword Spirit could hide here was not only because of this Iron Man Sword Formation. There must be some huge secret hidden here with the Left.
When An Zheng thought of this, he was already in the house. The decorations inside were extremely luxurious, and those seemingly exquisite decorations were a large amount of income. And An Zheng’s time was limited, he simply did not have the time to inspect if there were any treasures inside, so he simply sucked them all into the Blood Pearl’s space.
An Zheng moved all the things in the house away, and suddenly thought about it. If it was his previous life, he definitely wouldn’t do this … If it was when An Zheng was still the head of the Ming Fa Si, these things would have been sent to the Ming Fa Si’s archives and stored away.
The reason why An Zheng had such deep experience was greatly related to his years of conscientious work in the evidence warehouse back then. There were a lot of sub-divisions under the Ming Fa Si, but after An Zheng became the leader, it became much simpler. After merging the Records Division and the Evidence Division, An Zheng was a little regretful. He never thought that the merged Records Division and the Evidence Division would actually become the treasury of those who committed heinous crimes.
The things inside the house were all moved away, and the paintings on the walls were all taken away by An Zheng, so it was obvious at a glance. With An Zheng’s experience, after carefully inspecting the house and finding nothing wrong with it, he decided to head to the next house. The courtyard was very big, it walace where many normal looking houses were connected. An Zheng did not have the time to inspect it closely, he could only move every room he entered into, not even sparing the furniture.
After four to five minutes, An Zheng had already moved most of the rooms, and walked into an unremarkable room. An Zheng noticed that it looked like a normal looking warehouse with a large amount of pen, ink, paper and other things stored inside. He habitually packed all the things up, then left the house, took a few steps forward, then turned around and returned.
The original place where the papers were piled had a slightly different color. In theory, it would normally not attract anyone’s attention because the place where the things were placed had to be moved away. Naturally, the bottom had to be a lot cleaner. However, An Zheng felt that something was wrong with this piece of land, he squatted down and used his hands to touch it, the feel of this floor tile was also different from other places.
An Zheng knew that there must be a mechanism, but he didn’t have time to speculate where it might be. He summoned his Broken Army Sword and slashed down along the gaps between the tiles. If the person who made this mechanism saw how unreasonable An Zheng’s destruction was, he would definitely be so angry that his beard would crook.
Just as he moved it away, there were a few whooshing sounds below, and An Zheng almost subconsciously retreated a step back. At least a dozen arrows that were emitting blue light pierced into the ceiling. These arrows were extremely fast, and he believed that they had been designed and built by the same person who had created the sword formation.
An Zheng thought that if only the Oldman Huo was here, he would be able to easily get rid of all these. As for him, he could only rely on the sharpness of the Broken Army Sword to remove all the traps, without any skill at all.
With a move of his mind, the entire set of Reverse Scale Armor appeared outside his body. If anyone else saw this, they would definitely be convinced by this reverse scale family’s demeanor.
The simple lines, the ancient aura, and the faint marks on the armor could be seen. These could be the traces left behind by the previous owner of the reverse scale, or perhaps by the previous owner of the reverse scale. The reverse scale was the strongest defensive armor in the world. To be able to leave these marks on it was enough to prove the strength of the opponent.
An Zheng thought about how all the possessors of the reverse scale were cultivators that had reached the pinnacle of strength. Furthermore, he was still very, very far away from reaching that level.
The Reverse Scale Armor looked likeavy black color, with faint purplish-gold lines at the edges. Its appearance was not complicated, but rather simple. Wearing the reverse scale made An Zheng look like an ancient god of war that had appeared in the human world. At this critical juncture, An Zheng obviously did not have enough time to examine the appearance of the reverse scale he was wearing.
Therefore, he only took ouuge copper mirror from the Blood Pearl Bracelet’s space and placed it in front of him. With a bang, he poked the mirror open and looked at himself in it.
“Cool!”
After this shameless fellow said that one word, he immediately jumped down from the hole.
Of course, An Zheng knew that this was the Left’s secret base, there were definitely many defensive measures and mechanisms here. But he really didn’t have much research on smithing, even if Oldman Huo were to teach him, it would be useless for him not to enter. Although he knew a bit, he was far from being a true master creator. However, the good thing about An Zheng was that his memory was incomparably strong, so he could firmly memorize it.
An Zheng felt that the entire time he took to descend was at least 20 seconds, the depth of this place could be imagined. After he landed on the ground, he felt that something was wrong. There were several sharp spears pointing upwards. If it was anyone else, they would have already been turned intile of meat paste.
Dressed in Reverse Scale Armor s, An Zheng had broken numerous spears the moment he landed. Before he could rush upwards, an iron plate that was as thick as a city wall moved forward and sealed An Zheng one meter above his head.
Countless holes opened up in the surrounding walls, and poisonous arrows were shooting over likorrential rain. An Zheng put down the reverse scale armor’s mask and saw that the eyes were made from a special kind of gemstone. It was very clear on the outside, but the material was strong, even more so than the armor piece. However, this scene was quite exciting. Dang, dang, dang, dang, dang … … The sounds continued without end. Moreover, the location of the eye had been pierced by the crossbow bolts more than once.
“Awesome!”
When all the crossbow bolts were shot out, the Reverse Scale Armor was safe and sound. An Zheng pulled out the Broken Army Sword and pierced it. The partition was actually extremely thick, it was at least half a meter thick, and it was a special type of metal. With such a large piece of equipment, if it were made into armor, it would be able to equip a small squad of soldiers. An Zheng’s attitude towards magic tools and treasures was probably that he would never want to lose anything, so he directly cut off the thick and heavy partition and stored it in the Blood Pearl Bracelet’s dimension.
An Zheng flew straight up, and only after flying seven or eight meters high, did he realize that there was a stone door at his side. With one hand, he used the Broken Army Sword to cut open the mechanism of the stone door. Then, he pushed open the stone door and jumped in. It was a seemingly bottomless corridor, two meters wide and two meters tall. It was a square hole.
An Zheng took a few steps forward, and a stone pillar that was at least three meters long dropped down, smashing An Zheng down. Bang! The ground shook. With this, An Zheng was completely confused. With both hands supporting himself on the ground, he propped the heavy slabs up, and with a flip of his body, he struggled out from the slabs.
The queen rubbed her back. She was wearing armour, so she couldn’t reach …
“Fucking painful.”
He couldn’t reach his back, but he could reach his head. He didn’t know what use he could rub the back of his head outside his helmet.
After taking another dozen steps, the stone walls on both sides suddenly pressed down at the same time. An Zheng’s body was crushed inside. If it was anyone else, he would probably only have a layer as thick as paper, and even his bones would have been turned into dust.
An Zheng was stuck there, his eyelids moving up: “Damn, it’s a bit awkward.”
Letting out a sigh, he pushed open the walls on both sides of him and charged forward. The stone walls crashed into each other with a loud bang, closing perfectly.
An Zheng walked forward happily, he was overjoyed likabbit.
“Reverse scale reverse scale, why are you so strong?”
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
A pit suddenly sunk into the ground. The moment An Zheng landed, a huge square stone dropped from his head. The size of the stone was almost the same as the hole, and it could perfectly fit into the hole. If there was no An Zheng inside, it would be even more perfect.
An Zheng was extremely angry, with both hands on the big stone, he jumped up with both legs leaning on the walls of the cave, this posture of lifting a big stone with both legs supporting the walls as he jumped, if anyone saw this, they would definitely laugh for a year.
After walking out with great difficulty, An Zheng thought to himself that if he did not have the reverse scale, he might not have fallen intrap if he had walked in bit by bit, but it was simply too late.
Because it was too dark, he couldn’t see it clearly just now. In fact, this underground cave was only around two hundred meters, An Zheng had smashed inside it six times, squeezed inside it three times, and finally reached the end. An Zheng was too lazy to dodge it, and the axe hacked down onto his head with a clang. The edge of the axe perfectly cracked apart, revealing a face with a forehead, nose, lips, and chin … It really fits.
An Zheng pulled the axe from his body and leaned it against the wall. Then, he pushed open the door.
The moment the door opened, a golden light came out. The brightness of the golden light was something that An Zheng, who had experienced countless dangers and had experience that far exceeded that of an ordinary person, had never seen before. It was too intense, as though something had shocked An Zheng’s mind, causing a buzzing sound in his head.
