Chapter 252 - 252: New Hidden Chamber, Krieg Theredell

His spirit was lifted, and without caring about anything else, he entered once again. He saw the group of heroes gathered in a corner.

Seeing Ji Chen approach, they quickly made way, revealing a dark and ominous opening.

“How was this opening discovered?”

“Lord, this opening appeared when 1 accidentally touched a spot beneath the stone table.” Alice pointed to a slightly sunken area beneath the stone table, crouching down to show where it was.

Ji Chen nodded. It was highly likely that this was another secret compartment set up by the ArchLich Krieg Theredell.

This opening was only slightly taller than a person and just wide enough for two people to walk side by side. Inside, there was no illumination, pitch-black and utterly devoid of light.

However, this extreme darkness did not extinguish the excitement in his heart.

A hidden chamber within a hidden chamber – this was enough to make anyone even more excited.

Ji Chen couldn’t help but wonder. Items as precious as the red and orange skill scrolls, the alchemical notebook, and the 4-star treasures were considered highly valuable even on the outside. Yet, they were merely placed within the outer hidden chambers.

So, what kind of treasures could be concealed within this even more secretive chamber?

Just the thought of it aroused even more anticipation.

“For now, let’s leave the newly discovered hidden chamber aside and thoroughly scavenge this place.”

“Conduct a more thorough examination to check if there are any other undiscovered secret compartments or mechanisms!”

The heroes followed orders and began searching fervently once again.

Just as they were putting in their utmost effort in the search, within the spatial confines where various experimental materials were imprisoned, Elin Apocalis and Thotmudo were waiting eagerly.

Seeing Ji Chen and the others hadn’t returned yet, the impatient Thotmudo paced restlessly in the cramped cage, occasionally glancing towards the passageway.

“Thotmudo, stop pacing around like that. You’re making me dizzy,” Elin said somewhat irritably. “We’ve been here for so long. What difference does it make if we wait a little longer?”

“I know, pointy ears,” Thotmudo replied, intending to retort, but he realized he didn’t have the mood to continue arguing. He scratched his head in frustration and said anxiously, “You know that twisted ArchLich’s mind is cunning and bizarre. He might have left something behind as a last resort. If that human gets into any trouble because of that, then our hope of escaping… might be gone! He’s the first human… creature to come here in thousands of years. He might also be the last for thousands of years to come!”

Elin fell silent for a moment, and a trace of worry flickered in her eyes.

But soon, she regained her composure and furrowed her brows. “I don’t think we need to worry so much. You must have sensed the anomaly on that human, right?”

Hearing this, Thotmudo’s expression turned serious. “You mean that strange aura?”

“Yes, although it’s very faint and hidden, I can confirm that this aura might be related to those entities.” Elin nodded solemnly. “If that’s the case, then this human might be protected and favored in some way. He can’t die so easily.” Thotmudo pondered for a moment and found the logic to be sound. As one’s power grew, they would increasingly uncover the concealed facets of this world. The deeper their understanding, the greater their reverence for those enigmatic elements and beings.

If that human truly was a favored individual, his potential would indeed be unimaginable.

After pondering for a while, Thotmudo suddenly realized something and stared wide-eyed as he asked with a loud voice, “So, does that mean you readily agreed to that human’s conditions earlier because you saw his immense potential!?”

Upon hearing these words, Elin looked at Thotmudo with surprise, covering her mouth and giggling. “I thought you would only realize that after we get out.”

“Damn it! Crafty pointed ears! If you had told me earlier, 1 wouldn’t have gone through that bargaining ordeal” Thotmudo exclaimed frustratedly.

“So that’s why dwarves have ended up in the state they’re in today – there’s a reason behind it-”

Having searched here for a long while, Ji Chen and his companions ultimately couldn’t find anything more. Things that could withstand thousands or even tens of thousands of years of the passage of time were truly rare.

They directed their gazes towards the pitch-black entrance.

This time, just the same as before, Ji Chen allowed a Murloc Ranger to enter first to probe for any potential danger.

As for the Crown of Omniscience, it had turned a pale white due to the unique energy permeating this laboratory when they entered, rendering it completely non-functional.

Ji Chen had no choice but to rely on this human detection method to scout for danger.

However, what surprised everyone this time was that the Murloc Ranger sent in to explore emerged from the tunnel in just two to three minutes.

“There’s a courtyard inside, leading to an underground area that’s impossible to see the bottom of.”

This was how Benbo conveyed the meaning of the Murloc Ranger’s findings.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Ji Chen decided to personally investigate.

The group of them held torches and began to enter in an orderly manner.

Within the pitch-dark passage, even with the light of the torches, it remained quite dim. The firelight cast their silhouettes onto the walls, creating flickering shadows.

Unlike the previous narrow passageways, this one slightly descended as they proceeded. After less than a hundred meters from the entrance, they arrived at a circular courtyard with a diameter of over a hundred meters. Spiral stairs were affixed to the well walls, disappearing into the indiscernible darkness above..
