Chapter 69 Ownerless Castle!

In the dense jungle, the team moved forward in the direction of the red beam of light.

In the sky, a vampire baron transformed into a bat flapped its wings and flew above the team.

It is guiding the direction for the team below, and at the same time scouting the surrounding situation.

In the center of the team, Lu Ming was riding on the back of Di Xinglong, flipping through the chat information in the area.

Although it has been a day since the opening of the red-level [Ruins Labyrinth].

But at the moment, the discussions on the [Regional Channel] are still very hot.

Since the [Ruins Labyrinth] was upgraded yesterday, many people went to try the strategy.

But the results are obvious, and no one has succeeded until now.

This made Lu Ming secretly sigh: They are not afraid to go on like this, and let the level of the [Ruins Labyrinth] continue to increase by one level!
At the same time, there are also a lot of melon-eating people who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal, calling on the strong players at the top of the rankings to challenge the red-level [Ruins Labyrinth].

He, Li Yang, and the sudden emergence of Wang Zhenchuan, the top three of the three rankings, are naturally the targets of the name call.

However, Lu Ming looked at these messages and didn't bother to respond.

Wang Zhenchuan, like him, has remained silent until now.

Only Li Yang, who was more active, stood up and said that his castle was far away from the [Ruins Labyrinth], and it would take three or four days to go back and forth.

If he went to conquer the [Ruins Labyrinth], if he didn't recruit troops for three or four days, he would definitely not be able to compete for the No.1 reward.

Therefore, he said on [Regional Channel], if the [Ruins Labyrinth] has not been conquered after the leaderboard rewards are over.

He will lead the members of the [Mutual Aid Society] to conquer the [Ruins Labyrinth].

Seeing Li Yang's speech, Lu Ming also smiled and did not speak.

If tonight's strategy goes well, everyone will never see the coordinates of the red beam of light in the [Ruins Labyrinth] tomorrow!
"brush!"

At this moment, the vampire baron in the sky suddenly fell down and changed back to human form.

"Master, there is a castle not far ahead."

The vampire baron walked up to Di Xinglong and reported to Lu Ming.

"castle?"

Hearing this, Lu Ming was slightly surprised.

I didn't expect to find a castle on the way.

"Go, lead the way and have a look."

Immediately, Lu Ming waved his hand and said.

That castle is just on the route to the [Ruins Labyrinth], so it will take some time to avoid it.

Therefore, Lu Ming went directly to check the situation.

"Yes."

The vampire baron nodded immediately.

Then, under the guidance of the vampire baron, a castle quickly came into Lu Ming's sight.

It was a mid-level castle, and besides a [Goblin Camp] around the main city, there was only one ancillary building [Warehouse].

Obviously, the strength of this castle is very weak, and it only has a primary unit building.

However, Lu Ming looked at the castle from a distance, with a little surprise on his face.

Because, at this moment, there is a light white mask on the periphery of the castle in front of you.

It looks very similar to the protective cover during the initial novice protection period.

However, the color of the protective cover during the protection period is light blue, while the mask covered by the castle in front of you is light white.

This immediately aroused Lu Ming's curiosity, and immediately led the team to continue approaching.

Soon, the team came to the mask.

"Huh!" "Chi Chi!"...

As the team approached, the goblins staying behind in the castle suddenly became agitated.

They all shouted and raised their weapons, but faced with such a powerful team, they all shrank back at the gate of the castle with fear on their faces and dared not go forward.

At the same time, a reminder appeared in front of Lu Ming's eyes.

[There are still 2 days before the ownerless castle is completely closed! 】

"Is this an ownerless castle?"

Looking at the reminder in front of him, Lu Ming said to himself in surprise.

The so-called ownerless castle, of course, does not mean that there is no owner at the beginning, but refers to the castle that has lost its owner.

In layman's terms, the original owner has died.

Before that, Lu Ming was always curious, what would happen to the castle if the owner of the castle died while hunting or clearing the [Ruins Labyrinth]?
The castle in front of him now gave him the answer.

The castle disappears only after the statue of the castle master is smashed.

Therefore, even if the owner dies, the castle will still exist.

But with the death of the owner, the unowned castle will enter a closed countdown stage as the prompt in front of it says.

As for what will happen after the countdown ends and the ownerless castle is completely closed, I don't know.

However, looking at the ownerless castle in front of him, Lu Ming couldn't help thinking of the castle ruins in the [Maze of Ruins].

That is also an ownerless castle!
This involuntarily gave Lu Ming a bold idea.

Will the castle ruins in the [Ruins Labyrinth] be completely closed after losing its owner like the castle in front of me?

Then, after decades, after the arrival of their group of traversers, the closure was opened again and turned into the [Ruins Labyrinth].

And the arms that used to be in the castle have also become monsters in the [Maze of Ruins].

Lu Ming felt that his conjecture was quite logical.

"Ainz, bring some troops to destroy this castle!"

Soon, Lu Ming turned his head and said to Ainz.

Since it is an ownerless castle, the reward for destroying the castle is naturally not for nothing.

Now that the castle is not completely closed, it is still possible to attack the castle through the mask.

"Yes."

Hearing Lu Ming's order, Ainz immediately nodded in response.

Afterwards, he led a small team through the mask and killed the castle in front of him.

This castle only has one primary unit building, and it is naturally as easy to destroy it as chopping melons and vegetables.

After a while, a reminder appeared before Lu Ming's eyes.

[Congratulations on smashing the second-level [castle master statue], destroying the middle-level castle [Peach Blossom Spring], and getting a reward: a bronze treasure chest! 】

"Peach Blossom Spring?"

Looking at the name of this castle, Lu Ming couldn't help laughing and said: "Wish is very beautiful, but unfortunately the rules of this world are the law of the jungle."

Soon, Ainz walked over holding the bronze treasure chest.

To be honest, this was the first time Lu Ming had obtained a bronze treasure chest.

After opening it soon, apart from the magic crystal and the fragments of the statue of the castle master, there were only 3 blueprints of the [Arrow Tower] and a piece of low-level lower-clothes equipment.

This piece of bottom equipment has good attributes, slightly better than the wild boar leather pants he is wearing now, so Lu Ming directly changed into it.

After that, give the order to continue the journey.

……

At night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

In the sky not far away, the thick red beam of light was still dazzling, illuminating the surrounding forest red.

"Master, there is a powerful team not far ahead."

The vampire baron in charge of the investigation fell from the night sky and reported to Lu Ming.

Hearing the vampire baron's report, Lu Ming immediately typed in the private chat window with Chu Mengyao: [I found you. 】

[I found your team. 】

In the next second, Chu Mengyao's message was also sent.

After night fell, they kept in touch and determined a specific meeting place.

He didn't make an appointment at the [Ruins Labyrinth], but chose a forest not far from the [Ruins Labyrinth].

And at this moment, apparently they both found each other almost at the same time.

Afterwards, Lu Ming heard movement in front of him.

 Thanks for [Lazy→-→] 100 book coins for rewarding!
