Chapter 536 The Elf's Fang Expedition (Second Update)

A year ago, the old empire, which had not yet been destroyed by him, discovered a massive Dwemer ruin in the snowy mountains of Skyrim, which was said to possibly connect to the legendary Dark Realm.

Emperor Titus Mede II then dispatched an officer named Sulla to secretly assemble an expedition to Skyrim to excavate the ruins and see if they could find and study the technology for manufacturing damamo.

They then used Dwarven technology to replicate the dwarven mechanical army to help the Empire win future wars against the Ancestral Lands.

The excavation work went smoothly at first, but just as they finished building the walkway and opened the entrance to the ruins, a huge storm swept across the entire snow-capped mountain.

Many of the expedition's workers perished in the storm; only a small number managed to take refuge inside the ruins with their supplies, continuing their exploration while waiting for the storm to subside.

During this time, they encountered many dwarven mechanical attacks, and in the end only seven people survived.

Captain Sura, bodyguard Umana, mage Vali, guide Endast, overseer Yag, and the two remaining worker cat-men brothers, Gidar and Gizar.

The person Li Chuan just killed was one of the cat-men, Gizar.

This guy had been addicted to skomar for years, and his brother Gidar brought him into the expedition to help him quit.

Then give him a little bit every day so he can gradually quit.

As a result, during the six months they were trapped in the ruins, Skumar had long since exhausted his energy, Gidar was seriously injured by a sneak attack from a dwarven mechanical spider, and the other members of the expedition mysteriously disappeared, causing Gidar's addiction to flare up and drive him into madness.

He killed his severely wounded brother Gidar with his own hands, and then wandered around searching for Skuma, whom his brother had hidden in his imagination.

Skoma is a type of sugar made from sugarcane. Through special processing, it can be transformed into moon sugar, and further processing can turn it into Skoma, which is banned from sale in various cities across mainland China.

Skoma is highly addictive; excessive consumption can cause hallucinations and negatively impact intelligence and physical health.

Shaking his head, Li Chuan continued walking deeper into the ruins.

This world is full of ruins. As long as you dare to take risks, you may acquire a lot of wealth and become rich overnight. But if you don't have the strength, you will eventually become just a skeleton in the ruins.

He casually swatted away the dwarven mechanical spiders and dwarven mechanical balls that jumped out of the pipes, and then discovered the bodies of several other missing expedition members and their notebooks in the ruins.

Through the notes, he learned that the missing expedition members had been kidnapped by the Vamots in the ruins.

Most of the Dwemer's relics inevitably contain Vamo, who were snow elves who were tricked and enslaved by the Dwemer and have now degenerated into ugly monsters with low intelligence.

Most of the kidnapped expedition members were skinned alive and eaten by Vamo, with only the strongest member, Sura, and her bodyguard, Umana, managing to escape.

As Li Chuan continued to delve deeper into the ruins, he naturally encountered a large number of attacks from the Famo, but these Famo posed no threat to him at the moment, and he killed them all with ease.

Finally, he felt that he had not only reached the bottom of the snow mountain, but had also gone deep underground at least 500 meters, and finally arrived at the entrance to what Boulder called the Dark Realm.

That is, the place where an ancient scroll is hidden.

Here, he also met the two surviving members of the expedition team, Sura and Umana.

However, these two members actually started fighting at the entrance to Black Mirror.

"Sura, let's leave here. Enough people have died already!"

"Impossible. Below is the legendary Dark Realm. As long as I enter it, find the Dwemer dungeon, and obtain the Dwemer technology, His Majesty will surely reward me handsomely."

Umana, don't think I don't know what you're up to. You just want to kill me while I turn around and steal all the credit!

"Sura, you've gone mad! I don't want to die here. I'm leaving."

"Then I'll kill you first, and then I'll be the only one who knows the secret here."

Seeing the two working so hard, Li Chuan coughed and chuckled:

"I say, your empire has already fallen, is it really necessary for you to fight to the death here?"

"Who are you? How could the empire have fallen!"

Upon suddenly hearing Li Chuan's voice, the two were immediately startled and stopped fighting, turning their attention to Li Chuan.

They've only been here for a year. Even if the ancestral divine land is strong, it's impossible for it to destroy the empire in just one year, especially since the empire has already signed the Platinum Agreement.

"I am the Dragonborn Emperor of the new empire, and I have destroyed your empire."

Li Chuan shrugged and walked to the mechanism that opened the entrance to the Black Mirror, then pointed upwards with his hand:

"The Arahomon Opens!"

The magical light of the unlocking spell shone on the mechanism, causing it to tremble slightly, but it did not open as Li Chuan had expected.

This is the first time the unlocking spell has failed.

"The combination of technology and magic is really something."

He scanned the area with his divine sense and immediately knew where the problem lay.

No matter how complex the lock, the unlocking spell can open it, even modern high-tech smart locks, fingerprint locks, and the like.

However, there is one exception.

That is, if the lock is protected by magic, the unlocking spell will not work.

The machines of the Dwemer race are not ordinary machines; they are magical machines infused with magical power, and can only be opened by obtaining the corresponding unlocking item.

"How dare you spout such nonsense! You must be one of the Stormcloak rebels. Let me kill you first."

Sula didn't believe Li Chuan's words at all. She turned around, abandoned Umana, and thrust her sword at Li Chuan.

Li Chuan flicked his finger, and a powerful gust of air burst forth, striking Sula and sending him flying. Sula crashed into a large dwarf machine next to him and coughed up blood.

Then he grabbed Sula and pulled her close, beginning to read her memories.

"Do we need to find the coordinating mechanical ball to open this mechanism? That's too much trouble."

After reading Sula's memories, Li Chuan snapped her neck, threw her aside, and shook his head.

Sura is an officer of the Empire and an expert in Drummer technology. Under normal circumstances, the activation of this mechanism requires the use of a specially made coordination mechanical ball from Drummer.

If it's gone, it would take Sula at least a month to crack it, given his technical skills.

This was too troublesome for Li Chuan, so he chose to use brute force.

"Lightspeed Punch!"

With a raised hand, a barrage of fist shadows rained down on the dwarf's mechanism.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the entire dwarven mechanism that activated the Black Mirror vanished instantly, revealing a huge crater before Li Chuan's eyes. Below the crater lay the entrance to a dark underground world.
