I didn’t expect that this thief girl was actually trying to save people, haha... her luck is really too good.

In that case, then we can both save the people we want to save and then retreat. What a great choice.

It seems that this dwarf Duke Harman is indeed not a good person. Really, it would be great if someone could punish him when the time comes.

Just like that, we ignored the table displaying countless treasures and walked deeper into the treasure house of this auction house.

Chapter 101: Stone Gate of Ancient Ruins

However, it can be seen that Duke Harman of the dwarf tribe is quite cautious and strict outside his treasure house, but once you get inside, let alone people, there are not even decent mechanisms.

This fully proves that it is quite safe as long as you enter here.

Of course, it is also possible that he wanted to let his confidants come to get something. If his confidants accidentally fell into a trap and died here, it would be a loss, so he did not set up any mechanisms or traps.

However, there are really too many treasures in the underground treasury of the dwarf Duke Harman.

And each one is priceless, and there are more than a thousand of them... Really, what on earth did he do to have so many treasures?

Although I really want to steal these treasures, but... business is more important.

Finally, after passing by countless neatly arranged rare treasures, we finally arrived in front of a stone gate.

But this stone door is completely different from the previous one.

That’s right, this isn’t a handcrafted door, but rather it looks like an ancient relic made of stone…

At the same time, I could feel that this door actually had a faint trace of magic.

Perhaps, the stone door of this ancient ruins can only be opened by magic.

It seems that there must be something quite expensive hidden behind this, otherwise, it would never require magic to open it.

In this case, how do we activate this stone door of ancient ruins?

At this moment I looked around, but didn't see anything like a keyhole.

Except for the two pillars with ferocious statues on the left and right...

"I guess these two pillars should be the ones to open the door."

At this time, the little thief sister quickly expressed her thoughts.

"Maybe, because there is really nothing else here except these two stone pillars..."

At this moment, I didn't think about anything at all. I just stretched out my hand and touched the two ferocious statue pillars beside the stone gate of the ancient ruins.

In an instant, my Virtual God's Eyes began to react. Yes, I saw two magic circles on top of the two pillars, and they were emitting light.

Perhaps by injecting magic power into this magic circle, it would be possible to open the stone door of this ancient ruins.

Naturally, I also noticed that the magic circle was red.

That's right, only by casting fire magic on both sides at the same time can this pillar be opened.

Why do I know this... Actually, I found out this today when I was bored and flipped through some books about ancient ruins.

Although, what the thief lady said was correct, only magic can open the stone door of this ancient ruins.

But she probably didn't know how to open the door, so she hasn't said anything until now.

"I know, how did this stone door open?"

"Eh? Really?"

At this moment, the thief girl looked at me with a very surprised look, because she might have studied the stone door of the ancient ruins for a long time, but still couldn't open it.

So I was surprised to hear that I found the open zoom not long after I arrived here.

"Then open it quickly, maybe the person we are looking for is inside?"

Really, the thief girl's eyes seemed to light up in an instant and she said excitedly.

"Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?"

"May I ask, why did you steal this huge sapphire?"

At this moment, I pointed at the huge sapphire that was still exposed in her hand.

Really, if she is really a Phantom Thief, then this huge sapphire must be something very important to her.

In fact, the most important thing is that there are so many treasures displayed here, basically more than half of the gems and decorations are much more valuable than this huge sapphire, so I was a little confused, why did she steal this sapphire.

"So you want to know this... Actually, this thing was once a treasure of our clan thousands of years ago. It was called the Fallen Stone. It's basically a gem of the same level as the Philosopher's Stone. But at that time, our clan was deceived by a dwarf profiteer, so we lost the Fallen Stone. Today, I found it in this treasure house, so I took it back because it's something that belongs to our clan."

At this point, the Phantom Thief lady should have told me everything without reservation.

But then I heard that our clan she mentioned... Could it be that this was my illusion, that she is not actually human?

But her body shape is so similar to that of humans... It makes me unable to imagine that there are other races that are so similar to humans.

Perhaps, she will completely transform into a human form, otherwise... it is impossible to be exactly the same as a human.

However, at this moment, my eyes met hers completely.

Yes, her eyes were golden, and they did look familiar to me.

Could it be that I have seen such pupils before... Alas, I can’t remember it for the moment, but I must have seen it somewhere.

Oh, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Maybe I’ll remember it later.

"Well, if that's the case, let's get started."

"Um……"

As I said that, I placed my hand on the magic circle that was emitting red light.

"By the way, you know fire magic, right?"

If it doesn't know fire magic, I can actually lend it to her, because the red flame can not only burn the enemy to ashes, but it can also strengthen people's weapons or bodies, which is quite practical.

"It doesn't matter. I know fire magic. How should I put it... our clan only knows fire magic."

If that's the case, then there's no problem.

"Then put your hands in the same position as mine."

"okay."

As she said this, the thief girl looked at the position of my hand and then slowly moved her own hand.

When she stopped, she actually placed her hand on the same red magic circle that I had.

"I'll count to three, two, one, and we'll inject fire magic into this pillar together."

"understand!"

I could feel that she was a little nervous, but that was normal. Success or failure depended on this, so it would be strange if she wasn't nervous.

"Then let's start, three,"

"two,"

"one!"

In an instant, both her and I condensed fire magic in our palms, and then two strong flames rushed straight to the top of the stone pillar.

Afterwards, the two magic circles emitting red light also instantly emitted a dazzling red light, and then the stone door began to slowly open upwards in an instant.

It seems that the two of us succeeded.

Chapter 102 Entering the Ancient Ruins

But I can feel that... the magic power of this little thief is incredibly strong.

Although her close combat skills are far inferior to mine, her magic power and the degree of her flames should be comparable to my Red Flame.

This is really strange. Isn't it said that red flame is the strongest and most domineering among all flames? And her flame...

This suddenly left me a little puzzled.

Forget it. It can be seen that the magical power of this thief girl is quite strong. It would be nice to have her as my bodyguard.

It’s a pity that I’m a thief after all. How can I obey you so easily? Haha, that’s impossible.

In this case, we can only walk towards the stone gate of this ancient ruins.

However, after walking in, I felt a sense of déjà vu.

That’s right, this place is very similar to the temple where we went to see the goddess of light, Emmafit.

But this place is much more desolate than that temple, with broken pillars and rubble everywhere.

Moreover, this temple was not built outdoors, but underground, so the broken places can be clearly seen surrounded by rocks.

“I didn’t expect there would be a temple hidden here.”

At this time, the Phantom Thief said with an incredible look on her face.

"Then are there any clues about the person we are looking for here?"

Really, this place is so big that you can't see the end at a glance. Could it be that William's daughter, Babenfen, and the person the thief lady is looking for are here?

"I don't know... This is my first time here too, because I was always stuck in front of that gate."

At this time, the little thief couldn't help but shook her head helplessly.

So we kept walking in this dilapidated temple, looking for at least some clues.

But for some reason, I suddenly felt extremely cold in here.

For example, even at night, the temperature in the Dwarf Kingdom feels like it's around 7 or 8 degrees Celsius, but here, it's as if a biting cold wind of minus 7 or 8 degrees Celsius penetrates my newly bought aristocratic clothes, making me shiver.

And here everything is closed, so where is this vent?

Wait, vent?

Suddenly, an idea came to me, because if we can find the wind vent, then we will know the approximate location where Babifen and the others are being held.

Because dwarves, like humans, need to breathe fresh air. If they were left with us, they would suffocate over time due to insufficient fresh air.

Although there are no problems for those who have just entered, it will be the same after a while.

Therefore, since Babenfen, the daughter of William, the dwarf coachman, had been captured for so long and was going to be sold as a commodity, it was natural that she could not be allowed to die.

Therefore, this ventilation hole should be the place where Babifen is imprisoned.

However, I could only feel the wind blowing from time to time, but I couldn't tell where the vent was, which made me feel a little confused.

"Um... can you feel where this wind comes from?"

So, I asked this little thief helplessly.

If she doesn't know, then she can only spend more time looking for it. How long will it take?

"wind?"

However, the little thief didn't take it seriously, as if she didn't notice the change in the wind.

"Yeah, it's quite cold, don't you feel it?"

I asked with my head tilted, looking confused.

"Uh... let me feel it..."

Maybe she really couldn't feel it, so she closed her eyes and began to slowly gather the magic power on her body.

Could it be that she also has the rare ability to detect or explore the movements of the surrounding environment?

Oh, if that's true, then she's really suitable to be an investigator.

After a while, the flow of the surrounding atmosphere began to change. Yes, it began to flow towards her.

Hey, hey, hey, this is correct, right? Controlling the airflow of the surrounding atmosphere, is this really something that humans can do?

Then she opened her eyes instantly and pointed her finger to the left side of her body.

"over there."

She actually said it very confidently.

"Really……"
