The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 832: The Time of the Red Moon

In the old empire period, the Silver Pine Mountain Range was the border of the empire. If you go further north, you will enter the real big snowfield. There are no people living in the vicinity for thousands of miles, so it is no problem to bury the treasure there.

But time flies and times change.

Just like the Celestial Dynasty developed the Great Northern Wilderness into the Great Northern Cang, this land is extremely fertile and very suitable for growing food. As long as it can withstand the severe winter cold, it is a treasure land of geomantic omen.

It's just that the transformation of the Farghus Kingdom was very slow, and it took hundreds of years to slowly develop to its current level.

The plain near Silver Pine Mountain has now become an important granary for the Kingdom of Farghas, with grain production accounting for 60% of the country's output. It can be said that the Farghest Revolutionary Army's actions here are like pulling wages from the bottom of the pot and hitting the weakness of the conservative nobles. superior.

Lin Tianci and Petra bid farewell to Marion, one with a sword and the other with a Pegasus, and left in a hurry, with the purpose of rushing to the vicinity of the Silver Pine Mountains before the effect time of the Celestial Pegasus disappeared.

After all, the location of the treasure is determined, but the exact location still needs to be searched, and time waits for no one.

Coming to the city of Adams, this is a huge fortress city that reminds Lin Tianci of Helm's Deep in The Lord of the Rings, even more majestic than that.

The towering city walls are almost at the same level as the mountain peaks. The pure white stone structure makes it hard to tell where the snow is falling and what is just bricks and stones. The diversion channel flowing with hot springs sends hot water from nearby geothermal volcanoes to thousands of households. A fortress in a cold area has a tinge of warmth.

On its commercial roads, countless merchants loaded with food and live animals come and go, and the outside of the city is full of farmland that has been covered by heavy snow, and it is endless.

The city of Adams is very young, and its history is less than 100 years old. The pioneers who stepped into this black land have reached the northernmost end of the Kingdom of Faggas step by step. Going further north is no longer a plain suitable for planting crops. It's pure white snow.

Adams was built as a fortress against savages further north, who generally raided south in the fall.

After all, this area was originally a hunting ground for barbarians. The conflict between the lands caused many wars between the two sides. Driven to the snowfields further north.

Adams City is a landmark, representing the northernmost point that civilization can reach. It is also a shelter and outpost. Once traces of barbarians are found going south, residents of nearby farms can enter Adams City for refuge.

Having such a solid bridgehead under the Silver Pine Mountains meant that the barbarians would not be able to counterattack, but when it became the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, one can imagine how much the conservative nobles would be hurt.

If you gnaw hard, you won't be able to gnaw it down, but if you don't hit it down, the nearby area is an important food producing area.If you don't give your soldiers enough food, how can you have the strength to help you fight?
It's just that the background of these stories doesn't matter much to Lin Tianci. What he worries most is that he will be discovered once he enters the city.

The two landed in an uninhabited area outside Adams City, and used the art of change to disguise and change their appearance, and then entered the city with the caravan.

Lin Tianci's technique of transformation is very superficial, after all, it is only of the eighth grade, it's okay to fool ordinary people who don't know how to do it, and even a little professional detection method will reveal the truth.

After all, there is no time to learn too advanced illusion, so he can only settle for the next best thing.

Fortunately, the two of them went in very smoothly, neither were they found by the guards and chased them away, nor did the owner of the hotel wake up and turn into a thousand fantasy killers to poison them.

The unlucky brother Lin seems to have finally gotten lucky once.

And most importantly, there are some clues about where to find the treasure.

The area of ​​the Silver Pine Mountains is not small, and finding the entrance to a treasure here is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and a blanket search is not advisable at all.

If there are too many people, you can still try it, so let's forget about Brother Lin and Petra.

Finding where the treasure is, in fact, there are some empirical routines to follow.

First of all, the treasures of the tyrant Nemesis will definitely not be too small, which means that the occupied area is by no means a small number, and it is by no means as simple as digging a hole in the ground and throwing it in for sale.

Since there are certain requirements for space and area, it is unlikely to be placed in a narrow area such as a mountain peak, and the effect of concealing people's eyes must also be considered. It is initially estimated to be in a mountain depression, and it has not been discovered until now. Any clues show that it is still far away from densely populated areas even now.

Secondly, the reminder mentioned 'when the red moon rises', indicating that a red moon is required to open the treasure, which means that the entrance must be facing the direction of the rising moon.

With these key clues and Lin Tianci's ability to fly, searching for suspicious places became more effective. On the seventh day after arriving in Adams City, they found a valley that fit the above characteristics, and it was the only one. one.

As for whether it is...

Then you have to wait for the moon to rise.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

The tenth day since the appearance of the three stars, when the sun is close to setting and the moon has not yet risen.Lin Tianci and Petra were slowly heading towards their destination on the hillside.

As early as in the afternoon, the two of them used the technique of transformation to leave the city. In order not to attract attention, they deliberately followed the caravan for a long distance, and then turned around before turning back.

The Farghese Revolutionary Army and the killer organization Qianhuan seemed to have disappeared, and they never appeared again these days, and Petra's mind was all about treasure hunting, and she didn't bother to think about why they didn't show up.

The parties involved didn't take it seriously, so Lin Tianci didn't have to worry about it. Anyway, his purpose was to lead Petra and her mother back to Eastern China, and nothing else mattered.

"The talisman of rebirth!"

With a flick of the finger, the yellow talisman stuck to the body of the humming zombie. The moment it touched the talisman, it ignited without fire and emitted a faint aura.

Accompanied by the strong evil power, the negative energy that drives the zombies, that is, ghost energy, is completely dispelled.

Judging from Brother Lin's expression, he has repeated this task many times.

The biggest problem with the valley where the treasure is located is that the level of negative energy is relatively high. In addition to the birth of some undead creatures, it will also attract nearby zombies and skeletons.

Because it was some distance away from Adams City, the soldiers would only come regularly to clean up the undead creatures, lest they become too large and threaten the nearby villages.

For the locals, this place is similar to a mosquito trap for undead creatures, which is actually a good thing.

But because of the frequent gathering of undead creatures, no common people dare to come here.

The guards of Adams City should have cleared this place not long ago. There are not many undead creatures, mainly ghosts and zombies. A talisman of death can make them go away obediently. More conspicuous, Lin Tianci didn't even bother to throw away the talisman.

Petra raised her head to look at the gradually darkening sky from time to time, holding a notebook in one hand and a pen in the other, repeatedly checking whether there was any error in the calculation.

Seeing that it was the last step, it would be too uncomfortable if the timing of the red moon's appearance was mistaken due to a calculation error.

The total lunar eclipse usually does not take too long, most of it takes an hour or two. Considering the reminders printed, it is possible that treasures are only allowed to enter and exit when the red moon appears. If they do not run away before the end of the red moon Come out, maybe you will be sealed inside.

Just keeping Lin Tianci leading the way, driving away the undead creatures without eyes, and Petra muttering behind, almost spraining her feet while walking, the two of them advanced for about two hours, and finally came to this place. The end of the valley.

During the previous investigation, Lin Tianci came here with his own sword, and this is the only place on the Silver Pine Mountains that meets the conditions for hiding treasures. Whether it is true or not, Brother Lin really can't guarantee it.

The end of the valley is triangular, one side is shady and the other side is sunny.

The two walked to the side facing the sun. The towering mountain wall was rough and uneven, and no traces of man-made excavation were found. Moreover, the rock formations near here were relatively loose, and there were many rolling gravels under the mountain wall.

At this time, the sun has already set, the moon is hanging on the east side, and the red moon has not yet begun.

Because the prompt to open the treasure has "when the red moon rises", the entrance of the treasure must be facing the moon.

The two then rummaged under the stone wall. Too many gravels and insufficient manpower made it take a little longer.

"Come here, do you think it looks like a keyhole here?"

Just as Lin Tianci struggled to remove a piece of gravel, he heard Petra's voice.

He took a closer look, and saw that the position Petra was pointing at was at the lower left of the rock wall, and it was almost flush with the ground because of the height of the gravel.

It was a circular depression, and at first glance, it was obvious that it was definitely not a supernatural workmanship of nature, and there were still traces of excavation with tools.

The most important thing is the size, which feels almost exactly the same as the mithril disc in Petra's hand.

However, apart from this depression, there is no other entrance that can be entered. The rock wall is a whole piece of stone without any gaps.

Lin Tianci poured mana into the brooch, and when the communication with Sai Li was connected, the moonlight shining from behind gradually changed from cold white to dim.

The big full moon was missing as if it had been bitten, and gradually changed from a full moon to a new moon, and finally there was only a slender crescent.

And at this time, the moon that disappeared before reappeared, but this time it was no longer white and cold, but an almost coquettish bronze color.

The blood moon has begun.

Seeing this, Petra took the mithril disc out of her bag, gestured at its size, placed it gently in the depression of the rock wall, and took a few steps back to wait for development.

There was no movement at all for the first few seconds. When Lin Tianci thought he had found the wrong place, a ray of red light shot out from the mithril disc, to be precise, from the gemstone in the middle of the mithril disc.

It shot obliquely towards the sky, as if communicating with the red moon in the sky, or verifying whether the timing was right.

The next moment, Lin Tianci saw that rock wall vibrate, as if something came alive below.

Large chunks of stone debris were shaken off, and amidst the smog, a unique stone door with an outer circle and a triangle was revealed, and the stones that made it turned one by one, and finally appeared in the forest. In front of Tianci is a triangular hole.

And as the hole opened, a gust of dark wind rushed out...
