Chapter 318: Capital of Heaven

"The Teleportation Scroll is indeed a good thing. I heard that it is also quite expensive."

"This is a single-player scroll, it can only be used by one person..."

Ella glanced at Luo Qiu.

Judging from his performance in the afternoon, Luo Qiu's combat capability should be very strong, at least not weaker than a glory-level adventurer. If Luo Qiu were allowed to go to the 'City of Heaven', the success rate should be very high, but Ella couldn't bring herself to say such a thing.

Ella couldn't do something like putting her newly joined teammate in danger.

"I can help you."

Luo Qiu's words made Ella's heart skip a beat. She looked at Luo Qiu in disbelief, not understanding why Luo Qiu said that.

"Of course, I can only help you contain the Black Nightmare. You still have to do the work of collecting Holy Light Star Diamonds."

"Why?" Ella asked, "Why help me?"

"After all, we are teammates now, right?" Luo Qiu jumped up from the bed, stretched his body, and said, "When do we leave? Now?"

"But the teleportation scroll can only teleport one person..."

"It's okay, just use it yourself, I have a way to follow you there."

Luo Qiu's change made Ella at a loss. He looked down on her just now, but the next moment he wanted to go to "Heavenly City" with her. What's wrong with this guy?
Exploring dungeons was originally one of Luo Qiu's purposes for coming to Herzperona. Luo Qiu originally planned to explore several dungeons by himself, but unfortunately plans cannot keep up with changes. Because of someone's reasons, Luo Qiu will have to stay with this team of adventurers for a few more days.

Now that he has the opportunity to visit the 'City of Heaven', Luo Qiu is still very interested.

As for the information about the Holy Light Star Diamond, Luo Qiu only saw it in the files of the Kendenia Empire. However, the Holy Light Star Diamond does have the effect of restraining death. If "Yesterday Evening" possesses the props made of the Holy Light Star Diamond, it is still very likely to defeat the Death Knight.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go. We'll go there tonight. If everything goes well, we'll be back tomorrow. By then, we can use the Holy Light Star Diamond to strengthen your items. Then we can go and avenge Barros."

At Luo Qiu's urging, Ella opened the teleportation scroll in a daze. With a flash of silver light, she disappeared from Luo Qiu's room. Then Luo Qiu's figure slowly faded and disappeared without a trace.

……

'City of Heaven', one of the oldest underground cities, is like a spear standing between heaven and earth, piercing into the blue sky.

The 30th floor is an extremely large and magnificent palace. Unfortunately, the palace is full of rubble and broken walls, as if it has been through the baptism of war. The air is filled with the smell of gunpowder, which has destroyed the original appearance of the palace.

After being teleported here, Ella suddenly felt regretful. Why was she so impulsive? She didn't prepare anything, and she didn't even bring a few bottles of recovery potions. She rushed here directly? And she believed Luo Qiu's words. How could he, a warrior, follow her? This was an extremely rare space magic.

Covering her head, Ella sighed. Now that she was here, she might as well give it a try, even if it was just to gain some experience.

At this moment, Ella suddenly felt someone appear beside her. Her heart tightened and she subconsciously drew out her long sword and slashed at him.

Swish!
The blade seemed to be stuck by something, and no matter how hard Ella tried, she couldn't move it at all.

"Hey, that shouldn't be the case. Are you going to kill someone to silence them so soon?" A familiar voice reached Ella's ears. Her eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

"How...how did you get here?"

"Didn't I tell you that I came here with you?"

Luo Qiu loosened his fingers that were holding the blade, smiled and said, "Not bad, your reaction is quite fast, you are worthy of being a ghost."

Because she drew the sword too hard, Ella took two steps back before she could steady herself. She sheathed the sword and looked at Luo Qiu as if she was looking at a monster.

"Stop looking, let's go, there are still many interesting things here."

Luo Qiu looked around with an interested expression on his face.

Although this huge palace has been mostly destroyed, he can still feel that there are some props with faint magical aura left in the depths of the palace corridor. Although they are not good things to him, they are precious magic props for adventurers in other worlds.

"The 31st passage should be over there."

Ella took out a parchment scroll that looked like a map from her chest, spread it out on the ground, studied it for a while, and then pointed to a place.

The two of them no longer hesitated and walked towards the palace corridor leading to the upper level.

"Be careful, there may be palace guards running out of these rooms."

This palace corridor is very wide, and there are magic lamps flickering with ghostly flames hanging on the walls. Every ten meters or so, there are green and messy rooms on both sides of the palace corridor. Some of the rooms have been roughly damaged and are in a mess with nothing inside, while some of the rooms have their doors closed and it is impossible to see what is inside.

After all, they were not here specifically for adventure, so Luo Qiu and Ella did not specifically explore those rooms. They just occasionally took a look in the room with the destroyed door to see if there were any treasures and then continued to move towards the exit of the 31st floor.

The 30th floor of the 'City of Heaven' had long been explored by adventurers, and all the rooms, big and small, that could be opened had basically been searched. Adventurers had also tried various methods on some of the rooms that could not be opened, and those that could not be opened were abandoned.

However, occasionally some rooms that were originally closed will automatically open over time, and monsters such as palace guards will emerge from them to stop adventurers, so you still need to be careful when walking here.

For example, now, when Ella and Luo Qiu passed by a tightly closed door, the door opened with a creak.

The two of them stopped at the same time and looked inside the door.

A dozen palace guards wearing black helmets and armor, holding swords and axes, walked out of the room in unison and surrounded Luo Qiu and Ella.

"It looks like he's not here to send out invitations." Luo Qiu looked around and yawned.

"Invitation?" Ella didn't understand what Luo Qiu was talking about. She had already started fighting with the palace guards.

The clash of swords and knives made crisp echoes in the spacious palace corridors. Ella's swordsmanship was very tricky and ruthless, which did not match her delicate appearance. Five or six palace guards armed with swords and axes fought with Ella, and the fight was very lively.

Luo Qiu was also besieged by the palace guards, but he did not rush to attack. Instead, he easily dodged the attacks of the palace guards and looked inside the room.
