Chapter 177: Secret puppet room
Chu Tian wanted to stabilize his breathing, but several loud sounds came from above him!
Several holes appeared in the ceiling.
Large larvae that had turned red fell down.They suddenly exploded releasing large amounts of energy, falling down like bombs!
Chu Tian quickly shouted, “The hive is about to self destruct, let’s go!”
This was a problem from how the giant bee hive was designed.Once the queen bee was taken care of, the larvae would collectively explode, blowing up the intruder and the hive together, letting everyone perish together.
Chu Tian quickly put away the ten thousand year old spiritual honey, and they quickly left the main hall.With how complicated the hive was, it was a good thing they had the little fox to guide them.They finally escaped the honeycomb hive.
Tens of thousands of giant bees flew out in every direction.
After losing the queen bee’s commands, they turned crazy and began to slaughter everything.They no longer differentiated between friend and enemy.This meant that their camouflage had no use anymore and they were attacked as soon as they stepped out.
Chu Tian wasted quite a bit of energy to slash out a road of blood.They finally left this hidden area and returned to the giant’s labyrinth.
This was another palace.
From the map, they could see that this was called the secret puppet room!
After passing through the hidden portion, they had saved three fourths of the distance!
They looked around themselves.There was plenty of light, and this room was fully illuminated, with several large ancient bronze lamps hanging in the corners.But after entering this palace, what they saw first wasn’t the treasure box, but rather a row of giants standing in the middle of the room!
These giants were not like the armoured giants.They seemed smaller and more refined.In comparison, these giants were around fifteen meters tall with compact figures.They were covered in glowing runes, looking very eye catching.
One after the other!
What would they meet here?
Chu Tian carefully observed these fellows.Although they released a strong aura, there were no energy fluctuations coming from them.His eyes suddenly lit up, “These things don’t seem like monsters of the trial space, there seems to be a trick to them!”
The seven of them slowly approached the giants.
The result was not false!
They did not have any reactions at all.Although their runes were glowing, there was no pressure or danger coming from them, just like dead beings.
The seven of them looked at each other in blank dismay, not know what was happening.
Nangong Yun’s eyes looked around and surprise filled her beautiful eyes, “Forget about them!There’s a bronze treasure chest here, so give me the key!I want to open it!”
There were several giant bronze treasure chests in the secret puppet room.
It was forged with a plain yellow bronze that was rectangular in shape.It was two-three meters long, about half the length of a human, but it seemed very ancient like it had been here for many years!
Chu Tian studied the motionless giants.
Feng Caidie, Yun Yao, and the others encircled the treasure chest while being filled with expectations and apprehension.
Nangong Yun excitedly rubbed her hands together.There were two bronze keys in her hands that she moved towards the treasure chests, “I’m about to open them!”
“Just open it already!”Yun Yao said in a somewhat impatient manner.
The moment the key touched the keyhole, it was automatically sucked in and rotated on its own.The key hole began to release a bright light.
Kacha!
The treasure chest was opened.
Nangong Yun forcefully opened the treasure box.She saw that inside the treasure box, there were all kinds of gold, gems, and diamonds.With the light shining out, it seemed very mysterious, but the gems themselves were quite ordinary.Although they were valuable to normal people, they did not enter their eyes.
These gems were just filler and the true treasures were sitting at the top.There were a few jade slips and a glowing ancient jade talisman.
“What are these things?”
Nangong Yun picked up a jade slip and looked over it, not understanding it at all.Was this an ancient cultivation technique?It didn’t seem like one.There were many pictures on it that showed a variety of tools!
“Trial Protection Talisman?”
Nangong Yun discovered that the talisman was not normal.When she picked up the jade talisman, spiritual energy containing information entered her mind, showing her what uses this ancient talisman had.
The jade talisman could be used to defend oneself at a critical moment.It could only be used for a short period of time, but it was strong enough to defend against an attack from a True Soul expert!
This was a life saving item.
Of course they would give it to Chu Tian.
“These ancient slips should be treasures of the trial space, so we need to find someone to translate them.”Yun Yao explained, “The jade talisman is a special item of the trial space, so it can’t be taken out.”
They were truly unlucky.
They never thought that they would get this kind of treasure!
Nangong Yun opened another bronze treasure box.What made Nangong Yun disappointed was a few more jade slips she did not understand, but they seemed similar to the ones they just obtained.
The new thing they acquired was a storage bag.
As the name suggested, it would hold the things they obtained in the trial space, allowing them to not carry too much on themselves.If this thing could be taken out of the trial space, then it would be a priceless treasure, but it was a pity that it was a special item of the trial space.
The protective jade talisman and the storage bag were things of the trial space.They were formed by the trial space and were not real, so they could not be taken out.
There were too few rewards!
Too bad the bronze treasure box was the most basic treasure box!
This bronze key was obtained from the labourers, and the labourers were the most basic beings in the giant’s labyrinth.
“Another ancient race’s language.”Chu Tian looked at the jade slips, “It seems like ancient Gnome writing.This language is quite ancient and there has been too little passed down, so I can only understand a little of it.”
It’s over!
Even Chu Tian could only understand a little of it.
Then these jade slips were not useful at all!
“This is not a cultivation technique.”Chu Tian looked at the dense drawings on the jade slip, “This is a rare ancient mechanical technique book.Although I can’t understand what it means, there are people who can understand it.This is not useful for other people, but for us it is quite useful.We’ll give this to Tong Xiaoyu later, it will be a great help to her.”
Perhaps there was only a single person in the Southern Summer Country who could understand this.
This person was not anyone else other than the young miss, Meng Qingwu.With the Heavenly Book Source Spirit, no matter what ancient text it was, the young miss had the ability to break through it!
“I know!”Chu Tian was suddenly excited as he pointed at the ten giants in front of them, “These are ancient puppet refining mechanical techniques!”
“Is it useful?”
“Of course!As long as we can find the appropriate technique, we can control those guys!”
