V2.Chapter 61

The most important part of a plant is definitely the roots.

Many old trees have cut off their trunks and can eventually sprout new shoots, but if there is a problem with the roots, they will definitely not live for long in the end. This is the case with the mutant plant creatures in the overseas islands, whether it is a piranha flower, a piranha tree, or other mutant plants that are not well known, their core key points are on the roots, and the things on the ground surface are basically It won't die if it is cut off, and it won't take long to grow back.

Plants have mutated to such an extent that they are almost the same as animals!

Although they don't have as much intelligence as animals, they still rely on their original actions. This area should be one of the places left over from the original catastrophe, but they don't know what's inside. With Sauron's current strength, he naturally doesn't have much problem dealing with these things, but this kind of place is too weird, and he doesn't dare to take the risk to go deep into it. I'll leave it here to see later, now he needs to be busy with a lot of things.

but.

Just when Sauron was about to block the place temporarily so that no one else could approach it, Adele-Isabella seemed to have seen something, raised her finger and pointed over there: "Look, Your Excellency! There seems to be something there!"

What is there?

Sauron stopped when he heard the words, then looked to the side, and sure enough, he saw a gray-black thing. He walked over cautiously, noticing the odd tree nearby, and reached for a corner to pick it up. However, he tried hard to pull it out, but he couldn't pull it out. It seemed that part of the thing was buried under the ground. In desperation, he could only make a gesture towards the red-haired female pirate behind, and then the two of them dug up the dirt with their weapons at the same time and dug out the gray-black stone.

"It's obsidian!"

A look of disbelief appeared on Sauron's face, and then he looked at the gray-black stone in his hand. Because of the long-term weathering and the passage of time, this obsidian could not be seen from the past, but he could vaguely judge what it was. Part of an architectural sculpture. It should have existed for quite a long time.

Obsidian is a very durable ore that has been weathered like this for at least thousands of years!

This is a very rare ore.

It can be used in many places, but it is the most commonly used and still used on a large scale, so that there seem to be only two places in Sauron's memory when it is used in sculpture.

The first is the golem puppet!

The second is the wizard tower! ! !

Whether it's a golem golem or a wizard's tower, this area was definitely the domain of a powerful wizard long ago. There are artificially polished obsidian fragments here, so it is very likely that there is something related to the wizard.

There might even be a wizard tower!

Thinking of this, Sauron couldn't help but breathe a little faster. Even a dilapidated wizard tower that had been in existence for thousands of years was quite a temptation for him. Even if the function inside is completely destroyed. Many of the things stored in it have amazing value. And if Sauron guessed correctly, this may be the ancient ruins left over from the arcane empire. Among them, there may be data and information spells that survived the arcane empire period, and the value is basically difficult to estimate.

"Let's go in and see!"

Sauron, who had already planned to leave, was going to go in and explore. He instructed the red-haired female pirate behind him: "Pay attention to the surroundings, we try not to disturb these plants, they look like they are asleep."

It was getting a little dark by now.

Sauron looked up at the sky, and then made a gesture towards Adele Isabella beside him. The two walked away from the side. There are many strange trees and flowers all around, all of them seem to be very large, a bit like an ancient virgin forest, and occasionally they encounter some leaves. The whole plant moved a bit. But it doesn't seem to launch an attack. These strange plants seem to attack nearby creatures when they are attacked or need to eat.

This is very similar to the fact that the beast has no aggression when it has a full stomach!

The vision in front gradually widened.

Sauron saw a large lavender flower, and he frowned and took a look. Muttered: "Mandala? No! It just looks a bit like it!"

He turned around and glanced at the red-haired female pirate, and said solemnly: "Be careful. Let's go around!"

It doesn't look like a natural growth here.

On the contrary, it is like something that was artificially cultivated in the past, and then survived until now for some reason. There are weird flower seeds on the ground. It seems that this plant is left behind, but most of them have not germinated, because the land simply cannot support the growth of so many plants. Some of the flower seeds have been damaged and disappeared, but some are still preserved, but I don't know what effect it has. Sauron felt that these plants were dangerous, and it was purely the intuition of an experienced wanderer, so he didn't dare to disturb them.

Many of the plants here are just as alive!

After bypassing these strange flowers, some broken building outlines appeared in front of them. Because the weathering was too severe, and all kinds of strange plants and trees grew all around, Sauron's experience could not determine the specific what. Even, he couldn't find an entrance to the building in front of him, and naturally he couldn't judge the situation based on the outside. Not all underground ruins will give you an entrance, or even open a tunnel for you to explore.

In more high-end or ancient places, many underground ruins will not leave you even a hole.

What to do then?

dig!

Dig it yourself!

A hole is dug out and a tunnel is dug out. This is how high-end adventurer teams often dig out. Many sunken cities in the desert collapse and pour in quicksand. In those days, many people dug all the way to find treasures. When Sauron saw the surface of the ruins where not even a hole was left for him, he knew that today's exploration could only end there. This building has completely sunk to the ground, maybe it is still filled with sea water, anyway, many situations may happen.

Can't get in right now!

Sauron had to get through the passage here, then arrange for people to come and dig it, and finally find a tunnel that could be entered by his peers.

He looked at it for a while.

Prepare to memorize the surrounding environment and some iconic features, but at this time the red-haired female pirate suddenly said: "Your Excellency! Look at the corner of that wall, there seems to be something wrong!"

The search ability is very strong! ?

Sauron glanced at the red-haired female pirate next to him in surprise, and then moved towards the wall. This woman didn't know whether she had high intuition or strong basic skills. She seemed to be a little stronger than him in terms of discovery ability. In front of Sauron was a plant that looked a bit like lantern grass. He didn't dare to get too close, so he walked around to the back and saw a strange gray crack.

"Space cracks!?"

Sauron's expression was a little surprised, and he just glanced at it and murmured: "Shadow plane?! The buildings here are also connected to the shadow plane? It seems to be a permanently solidified plane gap! Could it be that the master here has opened up in the past? Fixed transmission channel?"

Shadow plane.

An immaterial plane that Sauron is most familiar with.

He just glanced at the space crack in front of him, and guessed the general effect and reason, and he was sure that his probability of being correct was more than 90%.

It's not arrogance, it's his confidence!

He has traveled through the shadow plane too many times in the past, and has lived in the shadow plane for a while.

"Let's go."

Sauron looked up at the sky and said slowly, "Come back later, it's too dangerous to go in rashly now."

The Plane of Shadows cannot be tampered with.

Because the shadow plane is connected to the material plane, but the environment of the two is not the same, and there may be some ancient and dangerous creatures. When you are active in the Shadow Plane, you may encounter monsters above the third-order challenge level at any time, and the proportion of quasi-legendary special life and legendary-level monsters is quite large, which is much larger than that of the Material Plane.

And there are shadow dragons in many places!

………………

The two men stepped back cautiously, and the camp was almost complete at this time.

Although it is still very simple at present, after all, it is only one day, and Sauron has not imposed any demands. What he found in the strange jungle today is the focus of Sauron's consideration. The slaves were driven together by the pirates and worked for a long time. At this moment, they also received some food. Although it was very rough and inferior, it at least allowed them to fill their stomachs. Sauron was not considered a stingy person. If they didn't feed the slaves, they would not have the strength to work. It was a very simple reason.

The night passed quickly.

Just when Sauron woke up and was about to think about how to explore that strange place, the ugly half-elf first mate walked in quickly, and said in a condensed voice, "Your Excellency! Three slaves escaped secretly last night!"

what! ?

Sauron's face instantly turned ashen.

The half-elf chief mate noticed his expression and quickly said, "But two of them were caught by us just after they ran out. The other one fled into the jungle. I have already sent someone to catch him."

"All the people who escaped are indigenous people!"

"Your Excellency, I suggest that these natives should be shackled to work, they are more disobedient than other slaves!"

Sauron's face was very gloomy.

After hearing the words of the half-elf first mate, he shook his head lightly, and then said with a grim expression: "No! Pass my order to have two crosses prepared, and the two escaped slaves will be crucified on them. Right where the slaves work."

The half-elf first mate revealed a cruel smile when he heard the words, and immediately nodded: "Okay! Your Excellency!"

"I'll do it right away."

They are pirates.

Pirates are not a benevolent profession, and these slaves must be awed!
