112: The key to the front hall's treasure house!! Blood-marked gold!!

"vault key!"

Jiang Ziqing and the others also noticed the vault key that dropped from the Alloy Guardian.

"It can open the front hall vault... We should have gone up too, if we knew."

Watching the Sakura Country professionals pick up the vault key, the few of them secretly thought it was a pity.

Bang!

Another explosion!

The other Alloy Guardian was also blasted apart, but no vault key dropped.

Not all Alloy Guardians drop vault keys.

"Front hall vault key..."

Ye Ze was deep in thought.

The golden vault key he had obtained earlier was a royal hall vault key. Judging from both the name and color, it seemed to be much more valuable than the bronze key dropped by the Alloy Guardian.

Thump!!! Thump!!! Thump!!!

Suddenly, a series of heavy footsteps interrupted Ye Ze's contemplation.

"Not good! Those Metal Statues outside..."

Someone quickly reacted.

Since these two Metal Statues in the Small Palace were alive,

then the Metal Statues placed outside were clearly not just decorations.

The faces of everyone who reacted sank.

There were estimated to be hundreds of Metal Statues in the main hall outside. If they were all Alloy Guardians...

Everyone didn't dare to think about it,

but the sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer.

"Quick, let's go!"

Jiang Ziqing decisively said, no longer caring about the treasures inside the Small Palace.

Treasures were good, but you had to be alive to take them. If they were blocked inside the Small Palace by hundreds of Alloy Guardians, it wouldn't be so easy to break out.

Leaving from the hall entrance,

Thump thump thump!!

A team of Alloy Guardians rushed in from both the front and back ends of the corridor.

"Turn into the Left Corridor!" Jiang Ziqing shouted loudly.

Whoosh!

Boom!

Jiang Ziqing swung her golden greatsword, knocking away an Alloy Guardian in front. The others followed closely, quickly turning into the Left Corridor.

Passing through the Left Corridor, everyone entered a very large corridor, dozens of meters wide and thousands of meters long. On both sides of the corridor were vault palaces, some with their doors wide open, others tightly shut.

At the end of the corridor was a hall, with light shining in from the end.

Thump thump thump!!!!

Heavy footsteps came from all directions.

Too many!

All the Metal Statues in the entire main hall came alive at this moment.

Teams of Alloy Guardians poured out from the entrances of various palaces...

Thump thump thump!!!

Two teams of Alloy Guardians behind also caught up.

"Charge out!"

A sharp glint flashed in Jiang Ziqing's eyes, and she was the first to charge towards the giant corridor ahead.

Whoosh!!

Clang clang clang clang!!!

With a single slash, countless golden light blades flew out, covering an area of dozens of meters.

Roar!!!

Ye Ze let out a low roar, transforming into a bearman, knocking away the Alloy Guardians in front one by one with his paws.

With these two fierce individuals clearing the way, the team quickly advanced.

Whoosh!!!

Suddenly, an Alloy Guardian leaped out from the entrance of a palace on the left side of the corridor, slashing down with a sword at Gao Feng, who was at the back of the team.

Gao Feng hadn't expected an Alloy Guardian here. So many people had walked past earlier without incident, yet it specifically targeted him.

However, at the last moment, Gao Feng still reacted, bringing his combat saber across to block the descending metal greatsword.

Clang!!!

A loud clang!

His combat saber vibrated wildly!

"Huh?"

Gao Feng noticed that this Alloy Guardian's body was covered in cracks, as if it had gone through a big battle.

His mind stirred, recalling the scene where the Alloy Guardian dropped a vault key earlier.

"Kill it!"

The Alloy Guardian in front of him was severely injured. Gao Feng didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

Together with the two teammates who had returned from the front, they quickly killed this Alloy Guardian.

A copper light flashed, and a bronze key dropped onto the ground.

[Rear Hall vault key: Can be used to open a vault in the rear hall.]

"vault key!"

Gao Feng was ecstatic.

He didn't expect it to actually drop.

Thump thump thump!!!!

At the same time, a ground-shaking sound of footsteps came from the front.

Looking up,

at least forty to fifty Alloy Guardians swarmed out of a palace in front, surging towards them like a tide.

"Damn it! Why did so many Alloy Guardians suddenly appear?"

Adding the ones from the front and back, there were nearly a hundred Alloy Guardians, sandwiching everyone in the middle.

Just at this critical moment, a voice suddenly came from within the team.

"Follow me!"

Gao Feng held a key in his hand, which glowed faintly with copper light. His face showed joy. Through the vault key in his hand, he sensed that the vault was nearby.

Soon, his gaze locked onto a palace door on the left side, about ten meters ahead.

Gao Feng sprinted forward.

Buzz!!!

Whoosh!

The bronze key vibrated violently, then turned into a stream of light and shot towards the indentation in the center of the palace door.

The next moment—

Click click click click!!!

A flash of light flickered, and the palace door slowly opened.

After everyone entered the palace, the door quickly closed again. Immediately after, a copper light flew down from the door, landed in Gao Feng's hand, and turned back into the key form.

"Those Alloy Guardians are standing still at the entrance."

An unusual light shone in Mu Bai's eyes, as if he could see through the palace door to the scene outside.

"Huh? It's the two teams from the United States and Sakura Country who came in first!"

Through the palace door, Mu Bai saw a flash of light at the entrance of the palace ahead. A group of familiar figures came out from the entrance and quickly ran towards the hall at the end of the corridor.

"Damn it!"

Mu Bai instantly understood.

"No wonder so many Alloy Guardians suddenly appeared in front. It turns out they were attracted by them."

The two teams who entered first had clearly encountered the same situation as they did now—being blocked at the vault entrance by Alloy Guardians.

And because of their arrival, which attracted the attention of the Alloy Guardians, the two teams from the United States and Sakura Country had now successfully escaped.

"What do we do now? There are at least fifty or sixty Alloy Guardians guarding the entrance outside."

Jiang Ziqing calmly said, "Wait."

"Wait for the next batch of teams to come in and lure the Alloy Guardians away, then we'll take the opportunity to go out."

Just like the two teams from the United States and Sakura Country had done before.

Mu Bai, who had the ability to see through things, watched the movements outside.

The rest of the people began to examine the vault in front of them.

In the depths of the vault were rows of shelves, on which were placed a large number of metal ornaments.

Forged from some unknown metal, the surface of the ornaments had streaks of red marks, like blood patterns, revealing a strange light.

"This... This is blood-patterned gold!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

blood-patterned gold, a Tier 3 resource.

In the market, every ten kilograms was equivalent to the value of a Tier 3 secret treasure.

And here, on the rows of shelves, all the metal ornaments were actually made of blood-patterned gold!

"This must be at least several hundred kilograms of blood-patterned gold."

Which was equivalent to dozens of Tier 3 secret treasures!

Gao Feng swallowed, looking at Jiang Ziqing and the others, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
