Chapter 16 Treasure Stealing Group

The breeze came over on a green leaf. Noelle pinched it lightly with her fingers and then let go.

Facing Li Qiuzhi's question, she touched the silver-gray hair on the side and said:
"The people in the treasure-stealing group are all very bad. If the holy relic falls into their hands, they will definitely use it for bad purposes, so we should stop them!"

What Noel said made sense. After all, the Treasure Steals was just a loosely managed thieves' organization, whose members were all money-obsessed vagrants.

As long as there is a scent of treasure, no matter if it is a secret realm or a relic, I will try my luck regardless of whether I have the ability or not.

Therefore, when adventurers go to explore the secret ruins, the obstacles they face besides monsters may also include treasure-stealing groups.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's go to the Thousand Winds Temple and teach them a lesson!"

A smile appeared on Weir's face. Even though she revealed this important information that she had originally intended to sell to the Knights of Favonius, she did not feel unhappy at all. She regarded it as a way of repaying the two men for saving her life.

With Weir leading the way, Noel followed closely behind, and Li Qiuzhi, as the shooter, stood at the back, vigilantly observing the movements around him.

The three of them walked up the grass-covered slope to a higher place, and the entire Thousand Winds Temple came into view.

There were stone pillars standing there for unknown purposes, and huge stairs extending downwards. The center of the Thousand Winds Temple was circular and looked like a gladiatorial arena.

There is a passage leading to the inside under the building that looks like a colosseum. Two people from the treasure-stealing group are guarding outside, and the rest may be inside.

It can be seen that they are also very vigilant.

Logically speaking, the ruins of the Thousand Winds Temple have been visited again and again by adventurers, and the valuable things should have been taken away. Could it be that the treasure-hunting group has discovered a new unexplored area?
The three of them didn't know the specific situation. After determining the location of the treasure-stealing group, they decided to sneak over and try to knock down the two members of the treasure-stealing group guarding the passage.

Because they didn't want to attract the attention of the treasure-stealing group, it took some effort for the few people to get there.

Originally, with the strength of Li Qiuzhi and his men, it would have been no problem for them to directly defeat the two treasure-stealing groups head-on, but they were afraid of alerting the treasure-stealing groups in the passage and scaring them away.

So the task of defeating the two treasure-stealing groups silently was given to Noel.

If Li Qiuzhi said that even if he launched a sneak attack, he would not be able to deal with them quickly without making any noise.

As the few people approached and used the huge rocks as a cover, Li Qiuzhi and his friends could clearly hear the conversation between the two treasure-stealing groups.

"Vig, how come the boss and the others haven't come out for so long? Are they in any danger?"

Wearing a black cowboy hat decorated with feathers and holding a crossbow, Orn said with some concern.

"Don't worry, Boss Jonnick brought a lot of potions in. Even if we meet the ruins guards, we can dismantle it!"

Compared to Ornn, who is an indecisive guy, Vig appears to be much more confident.

Vig's weapon was also a crossbow. He raised his right hand, which was wearing a worn glove, and said with a smile:
"After the boss and his men succeed, we'll have a banquet tonight to celebrate. Hehe, our luck has been too good lately.

"A month ago, I dug up an adventure diary that recorded the traces of the holy relic at Yingxiang Beach, and I also found the materials that recorded the seal.

"Especially the golden perch, which is not available anywhere. It's really strange that it appeared in front of us in the end!"

Ornn nodded in agreement:

"It was a surprise to see a fishing net with golden perch in the Fruit Wine Lake. I don't know which unlucky person let the net down, but it gave us a bargain for nothing." "And we only need the fish head to unlock the seal. The other parts sold for 150,000 Mora. It's a pity that we can't taste the delicacy ourselves!"

"Come on, isn't it good to give you so much Mora? Whether it's golden perch or some other delicacy, if you eat it in the morning, it will come out in the evening. Things that pass through the intestines are far less real to us than the Mora in our hands."

Vig scoffed at Orne's sentiment.

Isn't it just for those round Moras that the treasure-stealing group risked their lives in the wild like desperate criminals? Moras are the only omnipotent thing, and anything can be done with it!

Li Qiuzhi, who was a little further away, became furious when he heard this. It turned out that his fishing net was taken away by this group of treasure thieves, and they also sold his own fish for a lot of money!
This is ridiculous. I had already decided not to cause you any trouble for the time being, and you are not the one who is bringing trouble to me.

Just as he was about to ask Noelle to take action, the ground suddenly shook slightly.

"what happened?"

Vig and Orn looked around in horror but found nothing unusual.

Li Qiuzhi's hand was pressed against the stone, and he felt a continuous weak vibration. This unexpected situation made him wonder:

"Is it a minor earthquake?"

"No, it's not an earthquake. Look at the passage!" Weil shook her head and looked at the passage that the treasure-stealing group was guarding.

"Run! Run! It's the ruins guard!"

Several people ran out of the passage and shouted to the outside. A huge humanoid machine was chasing them. The body of the machine was darker in color, like rust, and there was a conspicuous light coming from its head, just like its eyes.

At this time, its upper body rotated and flew up, driving its two mechanical arms to turn the surroundings into a crusher. The mechanical legs of the lower body walked normally like humans, and every step shook the ground.

After Vig outside found out that the source of the vibration was actually the ruins guard, he was not so nervous anymore and shouted to the inside with a smile:
"Boss, isn't it just a Ruin Guard? Let's shoot a few arrows at its eyes and it will be paralyzed. Ornn! Let's aim at its eyes together!"

Ornn looked into the somewhat dim passage, the light emitting from the "eyes" of the ruins guard was so dazzling.

Just as he and Vig raised their crossbows and pulled the triggers to shoot, they suddenly discovered that there seemed to be more bright "eyes". Was I dazzled?
Ornn rubbed his eyes and looked again. This time there was confusion and fear in his eyes, and his hands holding the crossbow were shaking.

"Hey, this must be fake."

Beads of sweat the size of beans overflowed from Vig's orange hair, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Stupid! Stop aiming. There are five ruins guards. Run!"

Jonnick ran out of the passage with three of his men and saw the two men still standing there in a daze. He slapped each of them to wake them up.

Ornn straightened his black cowboy hat that was knocked askew by the boss, and only then did he realize what was happening and run away with Vig and Jonnick.

Li Qiuzhi was hiding aside and was also terrified. The ground was shaking more and more. If he didn't run away, he would be smashed to pieces by the guards of the ruins.
