The driller shrugged again, with a look of helplessness that was either fake or real, and gestured to the rope that tied him.

"How about it? I don't want the prince, but our cooperation doesn't seem to be over yet? At least help me loosen my ties and show off in front of my men..."

At this moment, a terrifying voice sounded in the air, like a sand snake spitting a message, or like a strong wind rushing through a hole, making Thales feel uncomfortable.

"no need to worry."

As the people around him subconsciously stepped back and covered their ears, Ricky walked through the crowd. He came to the drill wearing a hood and continued to torture Thales's ears with his inhuman voice.

"We have our own way."

But he didn't know whether it was because he was used to it or because Ricky was deliberately controlling it. Thales could feel that when he heard Ricky's inhuman voice again, his discomfort and desire to tremble were no longer as strong as before.

The drill was also affected by this voice and trembled for a few seconds.

He was confused for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "Crasus, why is your voice so weird?"

Ricky winked at the person behind the drill.

The next moment, a slender figure behind Dozi stepped forward and knocked him out with a blow from the hilt of his sword.

Thales saw clearly the man who knocked out the drill.

He was stunned again.

"We're done and ready to evacuate," Clay next to Ricky stepped forward and handed over to the people waiting there.

"Well done, girl, the information you brought back is worth thousands of gold, and it will eventually pay off."

It's Marina.

Under Thales' surprised gaze, the swordswoman Marina Norfolk, who tied him and the quick rope to my tavern, nodded, glanced at the prince with a cold look, and touched

That's it.

Wait, what did Clay just say...

What……

The information you brought back?

After a second, Thales suddenly understood

Previously, the information that Sak'el was chasing Thales was brought to the Sword of Disaster by Marina after she woke up.

After that, Sonny chased after him and Quick Rope.

After he had no choice but to turn to the guards prisoners for help, Samir took over from Sonny and appeared in front of them.

Thinking of this, Thales turned pale and glanced at Ricky, who was covered under the hood beside him uneasily.

After the prince was rescued by Yoder, he thought he had gotten rid of the mercenaries and that the only remaining threat was the Shadow Shield.

But in fact, no matter Marina, Sunny or Samuel Tails, they have always been under the surveillance of the hidden Sword of Disaster, and there has never been an exception.

Until Thales' side and other enemies in the dungeon consume each other, both sides suffer losses.

The more he learned, the heavier Thales felt.

The group of people was picked up by the Sword of Disaster and continued to move forward.

Until they went up another level of stone stairs and came to an extremely huge circular platform that seemed to be able to accommodate hundreds of people.

There is a huge circular stone pillar in the center of the platform, surrounded by a fan-shaped arrangement, with more than a dozen different stone platforms or tables, as well as huge, empty and dilapidated round wells, many of which are empty.

It has been broken into pieces and abandoned, turned into countless stones or scrap metal, scattered all over the ground.

Thales carefully stepped over an obstacle that was made of steel or stone. He looked at the stacked stone platforms on the platform and asked in confusion.

"here it is……"

Ricky doesn't look back

"The Foundry Hall."

"Or...what's left of it."

This time, Ricky's voice began to become normal. Although it was still unpleasant, it no longer gave people the unbearable illusion of scratching the steel plate.

Ricky sighed

"A long, long time ago, the prototypes of the world's first standard anti-magic weapons were secretly born here."

Thales was shocked.

He looked at these stone platforms that had obviously been abandoned for a long time, and his eyes became different.

"such a pity……"

Ricky's steps stopped.

Only then did Thales realize that they had arrived in front of an upright stone slab.

Ricky took out the key that returned to its old owner from Thales, and gently brushed open an eye symbol "leading to omniscience" in front of the stone slab.

"Everyone, rest on the spot and hold on tight."

Ricky said calmly.

Following his order, Thackerel was pushed to his knees by a stone platform by Semel. Cannon and Bree protested while being carried away by sword blades. Quickrope and Tardin walked to them under Clay's supervision.

The distant guards were dispersed far away, unable to care about each other.

but……

rest?

Got a good grip?

Thinking about Ricky's words, Thales didn't react for a moment.

But the next second, as the key in Ricky's hand began to turn, a rough and unpleasant vibration came from under his feet again!

Rumble…

Thales held on to a stone table beside him, stood firm, and looked around subconsciously.

He thought to himself that another exit might be about to open.

But when he looked up, he realized he was wrong.

Rumble…

In the dim light of the fire, Thales was surprised to see that the wall at the edge of the platform was slowly sliding down!

Soon, Thales felt his body become heavy, and there was a faint pressure on the soles of his feet.

This is……

Including the Sword of Disaster, many people jumped up in shock and their expressions suddenly changed!

"What are you doing?"

Before Thales could finish a sentence, he realized the current situation.

He looked at Ricky, and then looked at the wide, descending curved walls around him in shock.

"Are we... rising?"

Ricky smiled.

"You are very perceptive, Your Highness."

He nodded, opened his arms among the panicked people, and watched with satisfaction as the entire platform slowly rose.

"Now, we are taking the tools used by the mages to transport materials and go up and down the tower, heading to the ground, which was the top floor."

Rumble…

"Up and down the tower? Top floor?"

Thales squinted his eyes and looked at the deep darkness beyond the firelight.

"But isn't this underground..."

He didn't finish his words,

"Yes, most people think that the Prison of Bones is inherently an underground dungeon."

Ricky sat on the stone platform nearby, facing Thales, his tone was filled with emotion.

"But only a few people know that the confinement laboratory under the Alchemy Tower was once a huge tower rising from the ground."

Giant tower.

Thales was stunned for a moment.

"What?"

The prince subconsciously raised his head and looked at the ceiling, "But we came in..."

But Ricky just held up a finger to stop him.

"You know, thousands or even thousands of years ago, when the empire had not yet been established and mankind had not yet risen, the great desert was not called a great desert."

Ricky sighed softly and knocked on the stone platform where he sat.

"At that time, dozens of large and small sandbars had not yet been connected together, and the lakes and oases had not been covered by layers of yellow sand. This magic tower stood among them."

"Unfortunately, too many years have passed, and countless winds and sands have buried most of its body. So far, many people think that the Blade Tooth Camp is inherently a solid and reliable sand dune. They have no idea why it can be built on soft sand.

I am not surprised by the many fortresses, I am accustomed to them."

There was a slight sigh hidden in Ricky's tone.
