Chapter 1975 Up or Down

a line?

This is baby?
Alyssa was not very sure, but considering that this thing had never decayed, it should be very likely.

She immediately pried open a latch on the side of the personal terminal and a lens popped out.

This is a magnifying glass, or portable microscope, through which the fibers on this thin thread can be carefully observed.

This thin thread is made of a variety of materials. Alyssa can identify that part of it is golden plant fiber, and part of it is silver, like animal hair. As for more detailed testing, it is not something that can be done by portable instruments and needs to be sent to a professional laboratory.

“It is a bowstring made from the bark of the Sun’s Favor tree and the hair of a unicorn’s tail.”

Although unicorns are rare, their fur is just that and is not very valuable.

As for the Sun’s Grace, it is a common tree. The fruit of this tree is like an orange and has certain medicinal value, but there is nothing special about it.

“What is the use?”

“If you tie it to any bow, the bow will become a perfect magic item that can shoot arrows of light that can destroy evil. It will also heal the holder and remove toxins and diseases.”

“Magic item? Are you sure?”

Alyssa didn’t take it seriously at first, but when she heard it was a magic item, she took a closer look.

“You won’t see any magical effects before it’s used. When you return to the Swan, ask Fang Lanyin to make a bow arm out of spring steel and tie it on, and you’ll see.”

It’s not that Alyssa needs to use magic items very often, but magic items are extremely popular among collectors.

Especially magical items that look old and have a sense of age can often be sold at high prices.

Although the Deep Diving Demons were crushed by the Glowing Ion Yin Xiu Society, those guys might not be completely wiped out. Besides, Alyssa has her own connections, so as long as the stuff is good enough, she will have no trouble selling it.

On Viola’s side, perfect-grade magic items can be exchanged for a large manor with a butler and maids, and there are many people willing to exchange them, so the value is very high.

On Alyssa’s side, the value is even more outrageous, especially collectors and enthusiasts, who will offer it a price that will satisfy Alyssa.

She opened the pocket on her suit and stuffed the bowstring in it and patted it.

Although the parts in the warehouse alone were enough to make Alyssa smile from ear to ear, who would complain about money?
“Don’t worry, there are other things in that collapsed tower, but they are not magical items.”

Hearing what Li Chengxi said, Alyssa quickly asked others to move the stones away, and the psychological trauma of being chased by the swarm of insects just now was instantly healed.

This is really the big heart that recyclers have.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

There are many things hidden under this tall tower, which was originally a watchtower. They may have been brought here by people who were accidentally sent here through the portal a long time ago.

In addition to the bowstring, twenty cut sapphires, one ruby, five topazes and a handkerchief woven with gold wire were also found.

The price of the gems was not high, so Alyssa treated them as a benefit and distributed them directly to the team members, even as a bonus.

That handkerchief woven with gold thread cannot be valued according to the value of the gold itself, or even as a work of art. It must be sold as a cultural relic.

The stock price of this thing is not very good. People who like it may ask for a high price, but people who don’t like it probably won’t even bother to look at it.

Anyway, put them all away first.

If you want the cattle and horses to work, of course you have to make sure they are well fed. Everyone said that we don’t care about the bugs just now, let’s continue walking.

Just like a worker, overtime is not a problem, and difficult work is not a problem, as long as you pay enough, everything is fine. Collect the spoils, the current harvest is quite good after this trip, even the team members who came with me have earned half a year’s salary, so everyone has no complaints about continuing to move forward.

Of course, you still have to be careful.

They maintained their formation and continued to move forward, passing through the collapsed watchtower, and soon arrived at the main gate of the castle.

The door panel still fell to the ground, and it was 100% certain that it was smashed open by someone, and there were still traces of explosives on it.

Behind the gate is the main hall of the castle. The castle has a second floor and is even higher, but the stairs leading up to the main hall have collapsed. Lieutenant Dui tried and was almost hit by the falling rocks. Everyone had to give up and take a look on the first floor first.

There is a doorway on each side of the collapsed stairs, and behind the doorways are long corridors. At the end of one of the corridors, signs of collapse can be seen, so the crowd actually has no choice but one way to go.

Following this road, everyone soon discovered traces of the guys who had arrived earlier. There were some recent footprints in the thick dust on the ground.

Considering the situation on the terrace, it was most likely that the cultists of the Centipede Lord left first.
This made Alyssa a little anxious. It would be bad if the cultists stole the spoils.

However, Alyssa’s long adventure experience has taught her that it is useless to be anxious. This kind of situation with competitors is not the first or second time. As a recycler, Alyssa often competes with her peers. What she needs to do now is not to rush in immediately, but to advance steadily.

So she asked the somewhat anxious team members to relax. After all, everyone had just received benefits and of course wanted more, and no one wanted their competitors to get ahead of them.

This kind of mentality will cause trouble.

After walking forward for about twenty minutes, the corridor finally came to an end.

During this time, they also saw rooms in the corridor, but when they opened them, they found nothing inside except some broken stone furniture and rotten clothes and bedding.

Li Chengxi didn’t say anything else, which probably meant there was nothing worth noting.

When everyone reached the end, there were two paths before them.

There is a spiral staircase leading upward, which should lead to the second floor or higher, and there is also a downward staircase.

Standing at the stairs, you can see that the stairs go down about ten meters underground. A large iron door is blocking the entrance. At least it looks like it has never been opened by the cultists.

“Where do you think we should go?”

“do not know.”

Li Chengxi said very honestly:

“I can’t see anything more, take your pick.”

Alyssa thought about it for a while, and led everyone downstairs.

After all, it has never been opened, so maybe there are some valuable things that have not been discovered by the cultists.

After all, we are recyclers, and everything is about money.

The stairs were covered with black moss and mud, making them extremely slippery. Everyone held onto the wall and walked down step by step.

Lieutenant Dui was still at the front. He put his gun at the door and signaled his teammates next to him to open the door.

The gate was locked with an old-fashioned brass padlock, but Alyssa and her friends brought bolt cutters and cut it open in no time.

Then he gently pushed the door inwards, and the iron door creaked softly, and then rotten air with a slight stench rushed out from inside…
