Chapter 384 Gold Devouring Ants

Seeing Eusebio, Franco was the first to raise his voice and ask, "Captain Eusebio, what happened?"

The arrival of the Dragon Yin Mercenary Group was what Franco was most happy to see.With so many mercenary groups present, they are the only ones who can restrain the Tomahawk mercenary group, so that Escobar will not be too unscrupulous.

As for the trouble that Eusebio said, Franco didn't take it too seriously.

—That is because he still doesn't know what the trouble is.

Eusebio strode over and stood beside Franco.

This place was originally in the center of the hall.

"I want to tell everyone a bad news. In the hall that our Longyin Mercenary Group took down, the entrance door was suddenly closed!"

"what!?"

With the huge stone door closed, wouldn't the mercenaries in the hall be cut off?If you can't go out, what's the point of getting more wealth.

A mercenary captain asked impatiently: "Captain Eusebio, can't you open that stone door?"

"No." As expected, Eusebio shook his head.

If he could break through the huge stone gate, he wouldn't say anything about the big trouble.

"It seems that the stone door can only be pushed open from the outside, but the people inside can't do anything. I tried to break the door violently, but the inside of the stone door is obviously not an ordinary stone, it is abnormally hard. I tried my best, but there was no way to shake it."

After hearing this, the mercenaries couldn't help but gasped.

Eusebio is a strong man of the golden fighter level, and his strength is extremely powerful.Among the nearly thousand mercenaries present, only a few such as Escobar and Roger were comparable.If he has nothing to do with the giant door, it seems that the way of forcibly breaking the door is probably not feasible.

But when everyone came in, everyone found that this was a hall connected to another hall, a passage like a connection, and no other forks were seen.In other words, where you come in, you can only go out from there.

"Why don't we go back and try again. There are nearly a thousand mercenary brothers here. If we work together, even if we dig, we can dig a way."

A mercenary captain proposed, which was approved by everyone.

The stone gate is strong, so it is impossible for the surrounding walls to be equally indestructible.This hall is full of professionals, is it impossible to break through the wall?

Escobar immediately shouted: "It's not too late, let's go back and have a look."

This time, all the mercenaries agreed.

No matter what opinion you have about Escobar and the Tomahawk Mercenary Group, let it go at this time.Even the search for treasure has to be pushed back.Without ensuring a safe retreat, no one can continue to explore with peace of mind.

Everyone was about to set off to return when footsteps came from the passage again.

This time, the footsteps were even more hurried, and the person seemed to be running.

"It's the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group!"

A mercenary called out, with some kind of worry and fear in his voice.

It was Gaia, the leader of the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group, who ran over, his face was even uglier than that of Eusebio just now.

"what happened?"

Escobar asked, with a bad feeling in his heart.

"The stone door at the entrance of our hall has also been automatically closed!"

Wow ~
The mercenaries were in an uproar.

Immediately afterwards, more intensive footsteps came from the passage, mixed with various noisy voices.

Seeing the puzzled expressions of Escobar and Eusebio, Gaia explained: "I sent all the brothers of Fire Phoenix over here."

"Could it be..." Eusebio's heart moved, and his face became more serious.

"Yes!"

Gaia nodded affirmatively, "I'm worried that the gate here will be closed soon. I've also sent someone to notify you, Commander Eusebio."

Escobar and Eusebio stopped talking, and Gaia's guess is likely to become a fact.

While speaking, people from the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group rushed in, everyone had a look of surprise on their faces.

The Tomahawk mercenary group took the first hall, and everyone waited for them to harvest the spoils before continuing down.The Dragon Yin mercenary group occupied the second hall. After clearing the evil eyes of the guards, when they started to compete with the magic circle and mechanism protecting the treasure, the Fire Phoenix mercenary group had already started to attack the third hall.

Similarly, when the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group took the initiative to take over the fourth hall, not to mention the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group, even the Dragon Yin Mercenary Group had not yet completed their task of harvesting the loot.

The Linghu mercenary group moved too fast, or Long Aotian's move was too fast, they all looted everything, and the two mercenary groups in front hadn't finished yet.

Calculated according to the time, the Dragon Yin Mercenary Group should be almost done, but the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group's mechanism and traps are at most half solved.Watching the income shrink by half, Gaia is also full of bitterness.But there is no way, life-saving is the most important thing.

Eusebio glanced back at the deep passage, and his brothers also came here one after another, which made him feel relieved.

"What should I do now? Go back according to the original plan?"

Gaia frowned and said, "The door to the entrance here may be closed soon."

Escobar said coldly: "Then you should go out, at least you can save one door."

"We have another possibility to consider."

Eusebio pondered for a while, "Let's continue walking, there may be a way out later. Don't forget, the Dark Alliance also organized another team to enter the ruins from the second entrance."

Having said that, he raised his eyebrows, and the other two regiment leaders also reacted and turned their heads in unison.

"Lord Roger?"

When looking intently at the past, most of the hopes that the three regiment leaders were full of were instantly extinguished by Roger's bitter smile.

"The information I got about the ruins was provided by our leader of the Dark Alliance. After passing through these halls, those stone gates will be closed automatically, and they didn't mention it at all. As for our next route and itinerary, the more we describe It's getting simpler and more vague. But on the third floor, which is the core area of ​​the ruins, it should be clear that the teams entering from the two entrances will merge together."

Escobar was very dissatisfied with this answer: "Didn't you just discover this relic, and you haven't had time to explore it yet? Why does your lord seem to know the structure here like the back of his hand? It's not like there are some ulterior secrets hidden in it."

Roger smiled bitterly: "How do I know, if I knew, would I still be trapped here with you?"

Eusebio smoothed things over: "Stop arguing, Lord Roger is also a victim. The most urgent thing is to find a way to open the passage."

Gaia nodded, agreed and said: "That's right. Now we have two choices. One is to fight back, break down the wall when encountering a wall, and break down a door when encountering a door. The second is to keep going forward regardless of the back, and pin our hopes on the third floor." .”

Regardless of that much, Roger also joined the discussion: "I think we need to make sure that the re-closed stone door is difficult to open from the inside, but what if it is from the outside?"

Along the way, each stone gate is protected by a magic circle.The difficulty of breaking the door actually falls on cracking the magic circle.As for Shimen itself, even though it is very important, a bronze fighter can handle it.

Escobar snorted coldly: "What's the use of making sure this is, we are all inside now."

"No!" Eusebio reacted, "At least in our current hall, the door has not been closed, so we can arrange people in the passage outside the front door in advance."

Gaia also understood: "If it is confirmed that the door can be pushed open from the outside, then we don't have to rush back through the door. We just need to arrange a few people in the passage and open the door for us when the time comes. Let's continue to move forward and find The way out is the best, if you can't find it, you can easily return here, at worst, just open the door and go back."

"But..." Eusebio rolled his eyes, and wanted to say what to do if he couldn't drive outside, but finally held back.

Escobar asked directly: "Who is going?"

He glanced away, and the heads of the small and medium mercenary regiments around who were listening turned their heads away, not daring to look at him.I was afraid that if I was not careful, I would be caught out.

This idea is very good, but if the stone door cannot be pushed open from the outside, wouldn't the person be suffocated in the passage?
Eusebio and the others frowned, but couldn't think about it.None of us are stupid, who would make such a dangerous task indiscriminately.

Escobar's eyes were fierce, and he was about to stalk him brutally. Finally, two members of the Dragonsong mercenary group came in from the passage, holding something in their hands, walking towards this side.

"What's the matter?" Eusebio saw it and asked.

One of them flipped his hands over, revealing what he had caught.

"Captain, look."

I saw that thing was the size of a palm, with a metallic luster as a whole. Don't look a bit like an ant magnified countless times.

The knowledgeable mercenary saw it and immediately exclaimed.

"Gold-eating ants!?"
