“Where is the Wizard’s inheritance?”
After a brief rest, Su Nan got down to business.
Rose took out a roll of parchment and unfolded it. It was covered with dense lines and text, a map.
“This is the City of Lion-Faced Sphinxes.”
Rose pointed to a spot on the map, then moved her finger to another point not far away.
“This is where the Wizard’s inheritance is located.”
Su Nan looked at her in surprise. “Looks like you’ve been in the underworld for quite a while. You even drew a map.”
“It’s just a small area. Probably less than one percent of the total area of the underworld.”
Rose shrugged, suddenly as if she had thought of something, and said with a smile: “Do you want it? Ten Magic Stones for you.”“Deal!”
Su Nan agreed without a second thought.
This was extremely valuable intelligence!
Even with his memories from his previous life, he couldn’t possibly remember the entire terrain of the vast and boundless underworld.
He had no memory of this area, like the City of Lion-Faced Sphinxes.
With Rose’s map, his future actions would undoubtedly be less troublesome.
The key was that the map also marked out many explored mine locations and their approximate reserves.
With this map, once he dealt with the threat of the City of Lion-Faced Sphinxes, he could follow the map and develop the mines in this area.
This alone made the ten Magic Stones worth it.
“Also, about the Divine Blood Crystal, there are six in total. I’ll just give them to you.”

In the end, Su Nan paid one hundred and thirty Magic Stones for a map and six Divine Blood Crystals.
“When are you planning to act?” Rose asked.
“Time is of the essence, let’s go now.”
Su Nan didn’t want to delay. After all, there was still the ticking time bomb of the City of Lion-Faced Sphinxes.
He wanted to take care of the Wizard’s inheritance as soon as possible, then go back and prepare to deal with the City of Lion-Faced Sphinxes.
Rose didn’t object.
The two of them had a simple rest, then set off.
Considering that the Lion-Faced Sphinx might still be searching for them, the two cautiously moved away from the lake island, using the Levitation Technique to go a big circle, passing through the lake.
Under Rose’s lead, the two soon found an opening in the rock wall deep in the cave, and entered.
Behind the cave was a long tunnel.
Rose took out a crystal that emitted a bright light and walked silently in front, occasionally glancing at the map.
Traveling through the underworld was completely different from the surface world.
There were no obvious markers or open views, only interconnected tunnels like spiderwebs and ubiquitous darkness.
Even the most experienced travelers, with detailed maps, would find it difficult to navigate in such a place.
And because of the influence and interference of the earth’s veins, compasses and other instruments couldn’t be used.
So the biggest problem people often faced in the underworld was getting lost.
Even the indigenous people of the underworld couldn’t avoid this.
Fortunately, this wasn’t a problem for two Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices.
The powerful spiritual power of Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices gave them all a photographic memory.
Once they had walked a route, no matter how complex, they could recognize it the second time around.
Along the way, relying on the map and memory, Rose never got lost once.
After walking for half a day, they finally reached their destination.
“That’s the Wizard’s inheritance I found.” Rose pointed to a dark opening in the distance.
Su Nan looked closely, the opening was unexpectedly huge, semicircular in shape, with a radius of at least ten meters.
The faint light outside couldn’t reach inside, and from afar, it looked like a silent black hole, a bit creepy.
“That golden Magic Puppet is inside. As long as you get within fifty meters of the entrance, it will appear and issue a warning. If you don’t leave within half a minute or actively attack it, it will attack the intruder.”
“But as long as you leave the entrance for more than a hundred meters, it will stop pursuing.”
Su Nan understood.
To put it simply, Magic Puppets were like robots.
Without the command of the controller, they would only act according to pre-set programs.
The golden Magic Puppet Rose mentioned was clearly responsible for guarding this Wizard’s inheritance.
It was like the Blackrock Beast that had sniped them when he discovered the Wizard’s inheritance in the Blackrock City Mine Area four years ago.
“Get ready to move.” Su Nan said.
“Be careful, that golden Magic Puppet is very powerful.”
Rose reminded him seriously, as if she had suffered quite a bit from the golden Magic Puppet.
Su Nan nodded without saying anything, and walked towards the entrance.
As soon as he stepped within fifty meters of the entrance, heavy footsteps came from the darkness, followed by a huge creature, seven or eight meters tall, slowly appearing.
The golden Magic Puppet looked very similar to the Steel Magic Puppet, but it was dark red all over, shining with a cold metallic luster in the dim light, looking somewhat creepy.
“Intruder detected! Warning! Please leave the area immediately or you will be eliminated!”
“Intruder detected.”
The golden Magic Puppet repeated in a cold, mechanical voice.

Su Nan didn’t hesitate, he went straight for the kill.
And his first move was his most powerful attack!
In an instant, countless silver liquids emerged from the pores on Su Nan’s body, surrounding him, and quickly twisted and transformed into countless sharp, piercing spikes.
The next second, accompanied by a deafening sonic boom, countless dense, sharp spikes shot out, flooding the golden Magic Puppet like a metallic storm!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
The seemingly delicate spikes had amazing attack power!
The golden Magic Puppet, known for its strong defense, was torn apart with cracks by the spikes!
The metallic storm lasted for more than a minute.
When the storm subsided and all the spikes melted back into Su Nan’s body as liquid, the originally majestic and powerful golden Magic Puppet had become riddled with holes, almost no intact part left!
Its two thick arms were only left with short stumps, and even its head was blasted to pieces!
Rose was stunned, standing there dumbfounded, unable to recover for a while.
What was that just now?
Magic Technique? Magic Artifact?
That power was too exaggerated!
A golden Magic Puppet, close to the legendary third-ring level, was severely damaged in the blink of an eye!
Su Nan let out a sigh of relief, his face pale, but his spirit was very excited.
The more than a minute of bombardment had almost drained his spiritual power, but the results made him very satisfied.
The golden Magic Puppet was known for its strong defense, even a third-ring legendary knight who mastered the power of the earth element was no match for the golden Magic Puppet in terms of defense.
However, even the golden Magic Puppet, with such strong defense, couldn’t withstand the bombardment of the Magic Emblem Core.
It was worth the effort he had spent merging the Magic Emblem Core!
Although the golden Magic Puppet was severely injured, it hadn’t been completely destroyed. Su Nan threw another high-level Rune Gem, destroying the soul core in the Magic Puppet’s body, completely wiping out this golden Magic Puppet.
After that, Su Nan collected the remains of the golden Magic Puppet.
It was impossible to restore the golden Magic Puppet, but the remains should be able to decompose into a lot of rare metals.
At this time, Rose finally came to her senses, her eyes looking at Su Nan as if she were looking at a monster.
She had spent a lot of effort and couldn’t deal with the golden Magic Puppet, but Su Nan had easily done it.
It gave people a kind of dream-like daze.
Now Rose truly realized the huge gap in strength between herself and Su Nan.
While feeling lost and dejected, she also felt a little relieved.
With such a powerful force as Su Nan, the exploration of the Wizard’s inheritance this time would be much more secure.
“I need some time to recover my spiritual power.”
Su Nan turned back and said, then found a place far from the entrance, set up two elite stone Magic Puppets to guard him, sat down cross-legged and began to meditate to recover.
Rose looked at him with a complicated expression, then found a place to rest.
There was no day or night in the underworld, it was always dark.
The darkness from all directions made it difficult to sense the passage of time.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Nan opened his eyes and stood up from the ground.
“Okay, let’s go in.”
Rose was eager, she immediately got up when she heard this.
The two stood at the entrance, first skillfully casting various protective spells and energy particles on themselves, activating Magic Artifacts, then they entered side by side.
Inside the entrance was a very wide tunnel, about a hundred meters long.
At the end was a huge semicircular metal door, tightly closed, its surface engraved with dense enchantment symbols.
Su Nan and Rose looked at each other, and went forward to check.
“There are secret magic locks and magic traps on it, but they are worn out.”
“Judging from the degree of wear, these secret magic locks and magic traps have probably existed for more than a hundred years.”
Rose reached out and stroked the indentations on the door, sighing.
The older the Wizard’s inheritance, the lower the probability of finding rare materials, potions, and Magic Artifacts.
In the long erosion of time, these things often deteriorated or wore out and could no longer be used.
The only good news was that there might be valuable knowledge inheritance inside.
The closer the time point was to the thousand-year-old Wizard heyday, the more complete and powerful the knowledge inheritance was.
Without much effort, the two easily destroyed the secret magic locks and magic traps on the metal door, pushed open the door, and walked inside.
What greeted them was an ancient cave.
The walls were covered with light sources, natural fluorescent crystals.
On both sides were open doors, a total of six rooms.
Through the doors, one could vaguely see wooden shelves, workbenches and other things, probably laboratories or small workshops.
Facing the entrance were two dark and deep tunnels, with squeaks coming from the depths of the darkness, it was unknown what was in there.
Without needing to remind each other, Su Nan and Rose raised their vigilance and prepared for battle.
The next second, countless dense, blood-red shadows rushed out of the tunnel on the left, surging towards the two.
By the light emitted by the crystals on the wall, Su Nan quickly saw the true nature of those blood-red shadows.
They were actually fist-sized insects, blood-red in color, with sharp teeth lining their mouths.
“Blood Soul Worm!”
Su Nan’s face changed slightly, he quickly reminded Rose.
“Don’t get hit by these worms, they can devour souls!”
The Blood Soul Worm was said to be a descendant of the ancient beast, Scarlet Tooth, and had a trace of Scarlet Tooth’s bloodline.
However, after so many generations of reproduction, that trace of bloodline was extremely thin.
Even so, it didn’t stop the Blood Soul Worm from becoming a fearsome creature that people dreaded.
They could eat souls.
Any creature bitten by them would suffer soul damage, and physical injury was secondary.
If a person’s body was eaten clean by Blood Soul Worms, their soul would also be completely destroyed, leaving no trace.
A swarm of Blood Soul Worms could be said to be a headache for any creature with a soul.
After hearing Su Nan’s words, Rose’s face changed drastically.
These worms could actually attack souls!
If the soul was damaged, even a Wizard Apprentice with strong spiritual power would take a long time to recover.
If the damage was severe, it could even affect future promotions.
This was unacceptable to any Wizard Apprentice.
Rose made a decision, throwing out more than a dozen seeds and sprinkling them around her. The seeds landed and quickly sprouted at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into strange plants with giant flower pistils and countless thorny branches.
These strange plants surrounded Rose, frantically waving their branches, constantly swatting away the Blood Soul Worms.
But the Blood Soul Worms were simply too numerous. The first few plants were quickly eaten by the Blood Soul Worms.
Rose had no choice but to sprinkle another handful of seeds, while releasing spells to kill the Blood Soul Worms.
In the midst of the battle, she also took the time to glance at Su Nan’s situation.
She couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
She saw that there were three Steel Magic Puppets beside Su Nan, swinging their huge fists to meet the Blood Soul Worms.
The Blood Soul Worms that were hit by the fists exploded into a cloud of blood mist in midair.
“Steel Magic Puppets! Players even have these things!”
Rose was once again shocked.
When she saw the player take out over a hundred Stone Magic Puppets at once, she had already lamented his wealth.
But she hadn’t expected that the player even had Steel Magic Puppets.
These were legendary puppets. Three Steel Magic Puppets together were enough to rival a weaker Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice!
Rose had also coveted Steel Magic Puppets, but these things were not only incredibly expensive to manufacture, but also required extremely high skill in Puppetry Refining.
Wizard Apprentices who didn’t specialize in this field simply couldn’t refine them.
“Where on earth did the player get so many Magic Puppets?”
“Could it be that he made them himself?”
Rose was filled with doubts, feeling that the player was becoming more and more mysterious.
Steel Magic Puppets had no soul and their bodies were indestructible, which perfectly countered creatures like Blood Soul Worms.
The only drawback was that they moved slowly and couldn’t stop all the Blood Soul Worms.
A large number of Blood Soul Worms bypassed the Steel Magic Puppets and charged towards Su Nan.
However, they quickly discovered that this seemingly easier prey was actually a tougher shell than Steel Magic Puppets.
They finally broke through the invisible protective force field around Su Nan, and in an instant, a new invisible protective force field appeared.
Five Extreme Protection Rings, a total of 5,000 points of defense, even in the midst of the swarm, Su Nan remained calm and composed. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
