Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 264 - 264 Found Nothing

264 Found Nothing

She discussed it with her friends. There was a possibility of finding something precious in the warehouse. The mages couldn’t have taken every single thing with them, after all.

Su Wan wanted to explore the area. If any danger arose, Xu Yuan was there with them anyway. She gestured to the giant lizards and sent them ahead to scout the area.

The ten-meter-tall door of the warehouse was left ajar, and the giant lizards slowly pushed it wholly open. Thick dust blew into their faces.

When the dust settled, they could see what was in front of them. The space was messy. People seemed to have left in a hurry. All the supplies were scattered on the ground.

Storage racks had fallen onto the ground. With the passage of time, most had either rusted or turned to dust. Only the ones engraved with magic runes were still intact.

Despite it, everyone could see that the warehouse had once housed many materials and resources.

Other than the storage racks, the room was vastly empty. There were no treasures or dragon eggs to be seen anywhere. It was obvious that the mages had left in a hurry and left nothing useful behind.

Su Wan was a little disappointed. “Qingrong, lead some of your troops to search the entire area. Investigate every corner. Remember, the aim is to find the Arcana Hall Core and an escape route for us. If you encounter any enemies, don’t fight them alone. Retreat immediately.”

Zhao Qingrong nodded. She took a group of Battleaxe Warriors and went on her way.

Su Wan and the others waited quietly at the door. After a little while, a Battleaxe Warrior returned to report. “We found the Arcana Hall Core. It looks like a crystal.”

The Battleaxe Warrior led the way for Su Wan and the others to follow. After walking for a while, they reached the central area.

In a somewhat open space engraved with numerous magical runes, there was a white altar with blueish light surging around it.

This altar held the core. The magic spread from it in every direction. The energy was overpowering. It felt like standing in the center of a volcano that was going to erupt.

A blue crystal ball engraved with a mysterious pattern floated above the altar. Blue light surged and spread from the altar and poured into the crystal core.

A transparent force field surrounded the altar. Inside this barrier, overwhelming magic surged around the crystal ball.

Su Wan used the true Eye of the Demon Dragon. She was curious and excited to find out about his crystal core.

[Azure Magic Crystal]

[Level: SSS-class]

[Characteristic: This is the Arcana Hall Core, which controls all magic within it. It is the source of magic in the hall.]

[Note: The Magic Tower used to be a treasure in itself, created from precious magical materials. Once the Azure Magic Crystal is lifted from the altar, the whole area will collapse.]

Su Wan was excited. She extended a hand toward the transparent barrier to see if she could get through. Her hand passed without any obstruction.

She was not in a hurry to pick up the crystal core. She turned and looked at the others.

“Search the hall. Search every corner.”

After fighting for so long, Su Wan refused to believe that there was nothing else in this area. She was bound to find something useful.

Half an hour later, the entire warehouse was turned upside down, but apart from a few gems scattered on the ground, there was nothing to be found.

Su Wan felt even more upset because they hadn’t found a passage to the outside to secure their escape route. When asking the Fire Elemental Lord about the Arcana Hall, it had emphasized that they must secure their escape route before they touched the crystal core.

The Fire Elemental Lord promised to give them their reward and send them on their way after that.

The warehouse was empty except for the crystal core. There was nothing else to be found.

“What should we do?” Su Wan asked Xu Yuan. She knew that he must have thought of a way out of there.

“It’s the Magic Tower. It will definitely have some magic that seals any kind of escape passage,” he said.

Xu Yuan turned to the little butterfly fluttering around him and muttered something. The butterfly flew to the altar and touched the crystal core.

They heard something whirring in the walls. A part of the wall fell off, revealing a passageway.

Su Wan gestured to a team of troops to go ahead and check the passage.

The hidden area was divided into countless small spaces. The rooms were still empty. The magic runes shone faintly.

“So, this is the area where precious materials are stored…” Shi Linglong glanced at the gems scattered around. However, any precious materials that had been here before were long gone.

“Everyone, go and search. Don’t miss any of those gems.”

A team entered the area and searched carefully. It was disappointing that the area had no special treasures. They only managed to get a few gems.

Xu Yuan was bored. He couldn’t take it anymore. He knocked down the wall to his side.

Boom!

A secret door appeared on the wall of the corridor. A huge metal puppet was standing at the entrance.

Su Wan and the others turned to look. ‘There are more Heavy Blade Warriors?!’

They were even more in numbers than before! This was not done! They had suffered too much in the past two days while fighting them.

“Be on your guard!”

The troops were vigilant and ready for a battle. Several Night Elves stood in front of Su Wan.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the magic puppet. They waited for it to make a move.

Zhao Qingrong stood at the forefront. Her gaze was as sharp as her blade. Her muscles were taut and ready to unleash an attack at any moment.

Silence enveloped everything. Only their breathing was audible.

“What are you afraid of? They haven’t activated it yet!” said Xu Yuan impatiently.

Su Wan was flabbergasted. ‘How could he put everyone in danger this way?’

The magic puppets did not move. If not for the fact that their aura was palpable, they would have thought the puppets were abandoned and useless.

Su Wan used the True Eye of the Demon Dragon.

[Heavy Blade Warrior]

[Level: 62]

[Potential: Mythical level, not activated.]

…

[Status: In hibernation Can be injected with spiritual power to activate the puppet. After binding it, one can command the magic puppet to fight.]

[Note: A magic puppet created using a special method. After activation, it can fight for you.]
