Chapter 162 How did you get in?(1/2)
Faced with Xu Nan's interrogation, Rafael knew everything and said everything.
This guy is very conscious. Many times, before Xu Nan even asks, he learns to answer quickly.
Seeing his desire to survive was too much, Xu Nan felt a little funny.
If all this was not performed, then this guy is really the best among treasure hunters.
Typical silly but not sweet...
The information given by Rafael is not much different from Xu Nan's estimate. There are not many treasure hunters in the Northland, but there are indeed many gathering here, but there should be very few of them who can pose a threat to Quelras and even himself.
Most high-level professionals do not specialize in treasure hunters, so their news will not be as good as special treasure hunters. No wonder Quelras doesn't take these people seriously.
To put it nicely, they are competitors of the Frost Giant Treasure; to put it bluntly, they just followed them to find some vacancy.
What is worth noting is another group of people mentioned by Rafael.
According to Rafael, there was also a group of wanderers who were not treasure hunters entering the tomb at the same time. They were most likely from the Ninth Manor and under the command of Green Light!
Even Green Light himself may have participated in this adventure. After all, the tomb is not the Ice Wind Leader, which is the main material world. The legendary wanderer really took action, and there will be no neighborhood committee staff like Panyun Monk to maintain community stability.
In fact, Xu Nan has always been curious about the real purpose of Green Light. He has also made Qin Lele pay more attention. Unfortunately, Qin Lele has poor connections in the Ninth Manor and is still in a state of darkness.
However, it is certain that green light must have something to ask for, and the purpose of its pursuit should be similar to that of blood orange, otherwise the latter would not recognize green light as an enemy; while what blood orange asked Qin Lele to do was to follow Geralt from beginning to end.
"Gealte..."
After thinking about it, this ordinary middle-aged priest is not outstanding, but a series of signs indicate that he is the protagonist of this tomb expedition!
"We must find Qin Lele and Geralt as soon as possible!"
Xu Nan made up his mind. Before leaving, Grey had come to him, hoping that Xu Nan could take care of Geralt within his ability. At that time, Xu Nan laughed at Grey rarely, but Grey did not fight back.
Xu Nan asked why Grey was so concerned about Geralt. Grey himself couldn't tell why, but he just thought Geralt was a good person, and such a good person shouldn't die just like that.
This may be a reason, but it is definitely not the fundamental factor that supports Grey's doing so.
Xu Nan's curiosity about Geralt is also increasing day by day.
"I hope he's still with Quelras."
Xu Nan stood up, recited a spell gently, and untied the magic rope on Rafal.
Rafael stood up in pain, covering his lower body. Twenty minutes had passed. The traces left by Xu Nan's Tyrannosaurus Fist on him were still reminding him of how terrifying fighting ability the spellcaster in front of him had.
"lead the way."
"Find the experimental area."
Xu Nan gave the order.
He was not afraid of Rafal running away. This guy was obviously scared by himself. In addition, the shadow of Tyrannosaurus boxing, with Rafal's mentality, he could not have the mentality of disobeying himself.
As expected, Rafal did not say anything, endured the pain and began to grop around.
Soon, he found a signboard and some other annotation information, and determined that their location was indeed the underground area of the Arcane Institute.
This is a seating area, so the architectural style is very ordinary and there is no special place.
Xu Nan breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the divine storm did not drive itself away, but instead sent it directly to the underground of the island.
Quelras said it very clearly that the Institute of Arcane Empire is located on the island and has multiple underground spaces. Only by passing through the Institute can you find the tomb of the Frost Giant.
The entrance to the Frost Giant's Tomb is in the experimental area.
Under Xu Nan's intimidation, Rafael worked hard to use the treasure hunter's unique skills and quickly locked in the direction. The two of them did not delay and began to move forward quickly.
Xu Nan thought about it and took out the magic carpet for transportation. It was not that he was lazy, but because the magic carpet came from Stephen San and had a close connection with the Arcane Empire. If he encountered any intelligent unit, he might be able to identify friendly troops.
Although Paradise Lost is also an ally of the Arcane Empire, after all, he has a record of betrayal back then. Xu Nan does not believe that every intelligent unit of the Arcane Empire can be accepted by himself as smoothly as Liuhuo.
They took about ten minutes to leave the rest area, then walked up a spiral staircase, and then arrived at a deeper level underground three minutes later.
Here, the terrain becomes wider and the space height has changed from seven or eight meters to more than ten meters high.
At the exit of the spiral staircase, facing an open square. The black and dirty big guys on the square were covered with thick magic canvas, and I don’t know what guy was hiding inside.
Not far away, a robotic arm was lying on the ground, and there was a gem that had lost its luster.
The lack of dust on the ground means that the constant cleaning spell of the Arcane Empire is still exerting its effect.
The square runs through the east and west, and the roads on both sides cannot see the end.
This is related to relatively dark spaces, where lighting equipment has limited light sources, and dark vision is not omnipotent.
“This is the instrument area.”
"According to a map of a suspected research institute that I got at a high price, the instrument area should be next to the experimental area, but I don't know the specific direction."
Rafael put away the map in his hand and looked at Xu Nan with some anxiety.
He knew very well that his life was now in the hands of the man in front of him.
If the treasure hunter who failed for so many years can provide him with any experience, it means that he must not be able to argue when encountering a strong man. Kneel when he should. The most important thing is to be alive.
Xu Nan walked out by himself.
There are black dust buildings and magic canvas on both sides. There seems to be some reflections in front.
In the Super Spirit Vision, there is no response nearby, which means that there is basically no people.
"Go and take a look."
The two walked over and found that the reflective ones were actually rows of structural bodies!
These components are made from the same mold, very similar to human cavalry. The robotic arm on the ground just now is probably also an accessory for this component.
Xu Nan got closer and confirmed the code name of this thing.
sentinel.
Is the component of the Sentinel series? Xu Nan's heart moved.
The so-called construct is another name for magic construct. It is essentially an alchemy product and occupies a very important position in the development history of alchemy.
Strictly speaking, the first inflatable puppet made by Xu Nan can also be regarded as the primary component, but it does not have too high intelligence.
The construct was not the first invented by the Arcane Empire, but the alchemy of the construct was carried forward in the Arcane Empire. In that protracted war with the gods, the Arcane Empire's construct army also achieved remarkable results.
This robot, which is made of magical metal and has different effects, has made very brilliant developments and achievements in the history of the Arcane Empire, but unfortunately, the Arcane Empire fell before the construction technology was developed.
In the current Prolo world, constructs often appear in the ruins of the mage towers in the Arcane Empire era, and they are rarely made by modern mages, but they are not eliminated. In fact, a smart construct can be fully qualified as a mage apprentice or assistant. The always indifferent casters often tend to make a magical construct of their own, and they train their disciples.
What restricts this is the material.
After the fall of the Arcane Empire, the third type of metal almost disappeared in the main material world, and after the most important core raw material of magic construction was taken away, the construction technology also fell rapidly.
Nowadays, except for Stephen Sand, there are still a few structural bodies in service, most of them are in a state of remnant and rehabilitation. Most of them are excavated from the remains and restored to a certain extent under the hands of the alchemist to barely restore their appearance back then.
A complete structure is almost unavailable in the North.
But now, more than thirty-six complete components are placed in front of Xu Nan.
Xu Nan glanced at Rafael and pondered: "What is your dream?"
Rafal subconsciously straightened his back: "Become the most powerful treasure hunter!"
"What do you think of these constructs?"
He asked.
Rafal thought for a while: "It doesn't seem very practical..."
"Okay, stop talking, go check if there are any traps and mechanisms."
Xu Nan didn't listen to him and continued to say that this guy was definitely not going to be able to do it!
Rafael was a little confused and ran over to check it out with a little aggrievedness.
Xu Nan took advantage of Rafael's inspection and quickly opened the Paradise Lost System and checked the component information called the [Sentinel] series.
The result surprised him, and the internal database gave a high evaluation of the components of the Sentinel series.
[The Sentinel series has super anti-magic ability and melee skills that are not inferior to fourth-level warriors. The intelligent modules loaded can be competent for combat tasks in various environments...]
[Sentinel 1~17: The purpose of the first generation of sentinels was to complete the security tasks of the research institutions, so this generation of sentinels has strong reconnaissance capabilities and anti-stealth unit capabilities. On the premise of ensuring basic magical exemption, the first generation of sentinels loaded with twenty-nine quasi-legendary professions melee modes and coping strategies for all professions...]
[Sentinel 18~24: The second generation of sentinels has both escort effects and is suitable for water combat...]
[Sentinel 25~37: The third generation of sentinels has added a landing combat module, which has officially advanced from a security component to a military component. Its weapon module has been three times strengthened. It has extremely powerful landing combat performance with lightning spiders and magic tanks...]
Research reports seem to be reading papers, and they are so full of excitement.
Xu Nan looked and found that the Sentinel series was a technology that Paradise Lost was very eager to copy from the Arcane Empire. However, due to the firm control of the third type of metal by the Arcane Empire, even if it was obtained, there was no possibility of mass production, so he finally gave up.
But this does not prevent Paradise Lost from lemons on Sentinels.
This thing developed from the security structure from the beginning to the final military structure. The specific history was recorded in Paradise Lost, and it is well-known.
"These thirty-six sentries are the third generation sentries. The model should be Sentinel 35, which is a relatively mature model."
"Rafael said this is the institute's instrument library. Even if it is an instrument library, why do you put so many military-grade components?"
