Compared with the ruins exposed on the surface, this ruin hidden under the dungeon of Doom Castle is extremely secretive.

  If the floor of the dungeon warehouse had not collapsed unexpectedly, this ruin would probably have remained undiscovered by the world.

  At present, only Jia Lan and his party are at the scene, so there is no need to worry that the treasures in the ruins have been taken by others first, and they are not in a hurry to plunder.

  After patrolling the closed circular hall, the two experienced thieves found a total of four secret room doors hidden behind the murals, but out of caution, they did not open them easily.

  After whispering with Old Jimmy, the ‘Golden Level Thief’ decided to try to open the secret room door in the north direction first.

  This decision is based on architectural principles. Usually, the most important buildings in the complex are located in the north direction, so there may be more precious items hidden.

  However, after studying the murals and reliefs for a long time, the two thieves found that the mechanism to open the secret room door was just behind the skull nailed to the rock wall.

  This discovery made everyone present look at each other in bewilderment, and it was obvious that they had to take further action.

  During this period, Jia Lan had been carefully observing the broken murals and reliefs on the walls of the circular hall.

  Although most of these artworks were incomplete and unclear, Jia Lan still captured some key information from them.

  He realized that this was actually a secret underground temple of the Dragon Worship Cult.

  Jia Lan had heard of the ancient and secretive Dragon Worship Cult in the pre-civilization era, and had seen a library dedicated to the history of the Dragon Worship Cult and related books in the religious area of ??the Kolanburg Library.

  However, since Jia Lan was not very interested in religion and had only read a little about religious books, he had limited knowledge of the situation of the Dragon Worship Cult.

  But based on Jia Lan's superficial understanding of the Dragon Worship Cult and his familiarity with the history of the pre-civilization, he was able to judge that the ruins of the Dragon Worship Cult temple were probably not "relics of the apocalypse", but an ancient "twilight ruins" that had not been discovered in the dawn of the pre-civilization era.

  At least, as a researcher of the Kolanburg Library, Jia Lan had never heard of anyone discovering such a Twilight Ruins near the Kolanburg Library.

  If this Dragon Worship Temple is indeed a "Twilight Ruins", then the situation will be extremely serious.

  Except for Jia Lan, no one present may know how terrible the era when even the sun was shrouded in darkness was.

  If Jia Lan had a choice, he would choose to retreat first, seal the ruins, and wait until he was promoted to the 5-6th level of high-level mage realm before exploring.

  However, with his current strength as a 0-level high-level mage apprentice, it is obviously not wise to take risks in this dangerous Dragon Worship Ruins.

  However, Kenmet and other mercenaries obviously do not think so.

  They do not think that this ruins is more dangerous than the ruins they have explored before.

  After all, ruins exploration itself is a dangerous thing.

  In the mercenary doctrine, there is not much difference between dying early and dying late.

  They couldn't give up the opportunity to explore because of the fear of death.

  Therefore, before Jia Lan fully interpreted the contents of the murals and reliefs, they had already reached out and pulled out the bronze spear.

  At the moment the bronze spear was pulled out, a crisp sound of the spring of the mechanism was heard.

  Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.

  Everyone's face changed, and Old Jimmy rolled forward swiftly, curled up and hid at the feet of the standing skeleton.

  The gold thief who pulled out the bronze spear was facing the wall head-on, and it was too late to dodge. He could only pounce to the side and roll to avoid it.

  In the dense spraying sound and the subtle sound of metal falling, everyone fell to the ground except Jia Lan who was standing far away.

  After a while, the whistling sound gradually dissipated.

  Captain Kenmet slowly raised his head, which was protected by his arms, and after looking around, he asked Hugo (the gold-level thief) who was lying prone not far away: "Hugo, how are you?"

  "Damn! I was almost shot into a honeycomb!" Hugo groaned in response, "Captain, if you want to keep a skilled thief in the team, you'd better come and help me remove the poison needles in my body, check my injuries, and then decide whether to find an antidote for me or take other necessary measures."

  "Boy, if you don't shut up your chattering mouth, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance for the captain to take action!" At some point, Old Jimmy appeared beside Hugo, quickly put on a thin deerskin glove, and began to treat Hugo.

  Although Hugo did not lose his ability to move, as an experienced thief, he knew that it was not advisable to do strenuous exercise after being poisoned.

  Therefore, he remained in a prone position and even held his breath to slow down blood flow.

  Although Old Jimmy only had one hand, his movements were skillful and agile. He quickly removed more than a dozen thin steel needles from Hugo's body, sniffed them and laughed, "Boy, you're lucky. These poison needles have become ineffective due to their age."

  Hugo breathed a sigh of relief, but Old Jimmy immediately added, "Of course, it is also possible that changes may occur over time. You may have been infected with some mysterious virus."

  Old Jimmy's joke almost made the young gold thief breathless.

  At this moment, Jia Lan reminded, "Everyone, this is probably not the time to chat."

  A whistling wind blade slashed heavily on the skeleton leaning against the wall, making a crisp "clang" sound, shaking off the dust and spider webs on the skeleton, revealing a brilliant golden skeleton - a golden skeleton! This is actually a monster at the level of a gold-level great swordsman!

  Everyone gasped.

  A joke from the memory of a soul from another world came to Jia Lan's mind: What's more disgusting than eating a pile of dog shit? Answer: Eat another pile!

  Kenmet and the others probably felt this way at the moment, because the other three skeletons lying in the corner were also slowly and stiffly crawling out of the dust, showing their golden bones!

  "Damn it!" Kenmet shouted, and Hugo also shouted: "Captain! This is none of my business! I didn't touch it!"

  Old Jimmy on the side kindly reminded him: "You took its bronze spear!"

  No one expected that just triggering a poison needle trap would lead to the resurrection of four gold-level skeletons!

  Without time to think about it, Kenmet raised his sword and rushed towards the golden skeleton whose eyes were gradually glowing with blood-red light and was resurrecting, and slashed it fiercely on the clavicle, making a crisp sound like the sound of metal clashing.

  There were only three gold-level warriors on the scene, but there were four gold skeletons.

  The gold-level archer triggered Dou Qi flame on the spot, and the slightly injured gold-level thief Hugo didn't care about the poison, turned over and jumped up, pulled out the combat dagger and rushed towards the enemy!

  Although the other five silver mercenaries were slightly weaker, the five of them joined forces to entangle a gold skeleton.

  If they were not managed to entangle them, these gold skeletons with the combat power of the great swordsman would soon destroy everyone.

  As the most common type of soldier among the undead, skeletons are usually fragile consumables at the level of cannon fodder, relying on the characteristics of the undead who are not afraid of damage and death and the advantage of numbers to suppress the enemy.

  However, the skeletons in this relic violated this rule. Not only were they the highest level among the undead skeletons when they appeared, but they also came in four!

  Fortunately, the level of Galan’s team was also quite high. Among the ten people, there were three gold-level warriors, who barely resisted the three golden skeletons.

  But the skeleton's undead nature of not fearing harm and death caused great trouble to the mercenaries.

  Hugo quickly attacked the golden skeleton while shouting: "Cut the throat... Damn it, who can tell me where its trachea is? Pierce the heart... Where is the heart? Where is the heart of this skeleton?"

  The easiest way to deal with a skeleton monster that has no vital points is to dismantle it directly.

  However, the hardness of the golden skeleton bones is comparable to metal. Even the attack of a golden swordsman like Kenmet can only repel them but cannot kill them.

  In the fierce battle, it seemed that only Jia Lan was standing leisurely next to the gold-level archer.

  Archer Carter shot arrows wrapped in light blue light to repel the approaching golden skeletons, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Jia Lan, can you cast the small forbidden spell again?"

  "Small forbidden spell? Uh, are you talking about the little fireball just now?" Jia Lan shook his head. "If we use the 'small forbidden spell' you mentioned in this confined space, I guess all of us will be turned into roasted chickens!"

  He honestly injected a small amount of elemental matter into the spell model of the magic wand.

  It's not that he doesn't want to use a big move to destroy these golden skeletons, but he can't master the traction amplification method of casting at present.

  Unless he wants to die with these golden skeletons, Jia Lan doesn't think he can release that kind of out-of-control spell while ensuring the safety of himself and his companions.
