637 the reappearance of the zerg hive!
with the drone at the front, the searchlight clearly illuminated the situation in the cave.
At first, there was only one passage in the cave, but as they went deeper, they soon extended into many branches.
Fortunately, link and John were both top fighters of the wasteland. One had the heaven’s insight spell to sense auras, while the other was a top assassin with the sharpest insight. These branches didn’t cause any trouble for them, but the deeper they went, the more branches appeared. The whole cave was complicated, just like a branch-like structure.
If it were anyone else, they would most likely get lost in this maze-like environment.
have you noticed that this tree-shaped maze seems to be formed naturally? ” john said. Under the illumination of the searchlight, the thick moss on the surface of the stones in the cave was scraped off, and a layer of colorful patterns containing various minerals and metal elements could be clearly seen on the surface of the volcanic lava, as well as traces of the rapid solidification of the lava after it came into contact with the sea water.
“That’s why it’s even more horrifying, Yingluo.”
Link had observed the island and did not find any signs of magic circles or man-made modifications.
An Island that was naturally filled with Yin Qi and had a violent climate.
It was strange that The Desert Prince had hidden his treasure here.
In other words, there was no treasure map here at all, and it was just a complete land of death.
The real use of the treasure map fragment was perhaps to gather the seven generals here for a stroll.
Link had thought that he already knew the hidden mission’s plot, but it seemed that he was only peeking at it from a small perspective. There were still many secrets and doubts.
Link couldn’t help but shiver. No matter what the result was, it made him feel like he had been dragged into a deeper and bigger conspiracy.
The group continued forward, but not long after, link and John both felt a hostile aura.
The red arrow shot out from his sleeve and circled around Link’s body, on guard.
Link took out his magic box pistol. The tip of a throwing knife appeared on John’s wrist.
The evil aura wasn’t strong and was only faintly discernible. However, he could still sense the aura approaching each time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVajra’s body glowed with Buddhist light. This was a sign that he had sensed something ominous and was using the Buddhist light to protect his body.
even the demonized parasite on link’s body crawled out of his sleeve excitedly. its mucus formed a bloody mouth, revealing its sharp teeth and tongue. it was about to enjoy a feast.
Shazock was the only one who could sense the presence of the evil intent when he scanned the others. He was the only one who didn’t have this talent and couldn’t sense the enemy immediately.
However, shazok also couldn’t show his fear. He raised his sword and prepared to attack at any moment.
He glanced at King Kong and link from time to time, trying to predict when the enemy would arrive from their reactions.
It was as if everyone was taking an open-book exam, but shazock was the only one who was taking a closed-book exam, and his heart was filled with anxiety.
They didn’t stop because of the enemy’s approach, but continued to move forward.
the deep darkness was gradually lit up by the drone’s searchlights. just as the darkness was pushed away, a foul stench of decay suddenly gushed out of the cave.
Under the searchlight, a ” corpse ” with disheveled hair, swollen, and pale skin staggered out, grimacing in pain. With every step he took, pus would flow out of his wounds.
One of the eyes was staring at the light source, while the other was spinning in its eye socket. The flesh in the eye socket had turned out and drooped beside the thin and deformed cheekbone. The skin around the eye socket trembled slightly, and white and fat maggots were crawling out from inside and crawling up the eyeball as if no one was there.
“Ah, Yingluo.”
The corpse let out an uncomfortable wail, and its body suddenly swelled up, especially its stomach, which swelled to the point that it looked like it was going to explode at any moment. The capillaries on the belly were clearly visible.
Blargh!
The corpse suddenly spewed out a cloud of filth, and the strong stench made everyone frown.
Shazok was like an arrow that had left its bow, and he immediately jumped up and charged forward. Wind power enshrouded his body, and his stellar energy was intense.
Link couldn’t help but gasp at the sight. He saw that shazock’s sword was already cutting through the vomit and moving towards the corpse. It was too late to stop it.
He wasn’t afraid of the monster, but shazok’s actions had made it hard for him to breathe.
Vajra amulet was enlightened and immediately leaped forward, protecting link and John behind him. His entire body shone with Buddhist light.
Shazok’s Warblade easily cut through the corpse, but in the next second, his expression changed.
the bloated corpse was like a balloon, and shazock’s blade easily tore it apart. however, it exploded in the next second.
The filth and rotten things inside the body splashed everywhere along with the explosion.
When the filth flew to King Kong’s protective Buddhist light, it was instantly ignited and burned into a pile of black ashes in the next second, dissipating into nothing.
Shazock immediately switched to the power of earth form and used the power of source form within his body, using the Earth’s outer shell to block the filth.
The explosion gradually subsided. A wisp of Buddha fire flicked out of Vajra’s fingertip. The corpses and filth on the ground and walls rose and disappeared in an instant.
Seeing that all the filth had been purified, shazock finally came out of his Elementium state, not daring to look back at everyone. It understood that it had attacked rashly because it was too eager to compete just now, and had almost caused everyone to be turned upside down.
Link looked at the ashes on the ground and couldn’t help but say, ” these people are all under the curse. Be careful from now on and try to attack from a distance.
As soon as he finished speaking, the wailing of the ‘corpse’ came from the inside of the cave again.
Shazock didn’t have any long-range attacks, so he could only follow behind and watch as link, John, and King Kong fought.
The red arrow moved quickly in the cave, making a sharp whistle-like sound due to the high-frequency vibration.
The magic box pistol didn’t stop firing, and its light was bright.
John’s throwing knife flashed with a cold light.
King Kong chanted Sutras, and the solidified light wheel of Buddha’s light spread out, washing away the corpses and filth that exploded along the way.
Shazoc’s tail that was originally raised up was now drooped on the ground.
In the time he knew King Kong, they had competed and competed countless times. They had won and lost, but the gap between them was not big.
However, this time, he was completely at the bottom and was mercilessly crushed. This made shazok feel extremely defeated.
Just as shazock’s thoughts were running wild, link let out a long breath.”I’m finally done.”
Link suddenly turned around and asked John, ” “how is it? you’ve also noticed some clues, right?”
” i see. ” john nodded. ” it seems like there’s more to this than meets the eye. ”
King Kong didn’t care about the two people’s confused words. He only cared about the merit on the ground. Shazock cared, but he didn’t have the face to ask. He anxiously scratched his ears and cheeks.
Both link and John had top-notch observation skills. Although the cursed people were dressed shabbily, they could tell from some clues that they were all wearing the traditional clothing of the sand capital and were dressed as servants.
The traditional clothing of Shandu used to be very popular, but after the liquidation, very few people wore this kind of clothing. Firstly, it was because the production process was complicated, and secondly, because it was a full-body robe with two layers inside and outside, it required a lot of linen and cotton. after the nuclear strike on the day of reckoning, the stock of such plants was extremely low, and the consumption was severe. it was also inconvenient to move around, so it was replaced by a practical wasteland style.
They were dressed in traditional clothes and were also dressed as servants.
Moreover, this was the Prince’s treasure vault, so it was hard not to think of something.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThese workers might be the servants who helped the Prince move the treasure vault. After setting up the treasure vault, the Prince was worried that they would leak the news, so he left them on the island and even cast a curse on them, turning them into filth to guard the place.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, link felt that this matter was not as simple as the Prince had said in the recording pen.
However, there was also the treasure vault, the key to the Black Library in the recording pen, the desert dynasty’s fight against the alien planet, the restoration of the Ramon dynasty, and the mysterious disappearance.
The history of the wasteland seemed to be connected by the history of the desert dynasty.
Even the Golden accessory from the pharaoh’s tomb, the arachnid’s nest Kasaya.
All of this gave link an urge to reveal the truth.
Link suddenly realized that he, the Ruler of the Wasteland, seemed to have fallen into someone else’s trap. He had become a chess piece in The Desert Prince’s plan.
After the cursed slaves died, they did not encounter any other evils on the way.
Even the paths in the cave began to converge, and there were not as many forks.
When there was only one path left, link knew that he wouldn’t be far from solving the mystery of the Prince’s treasure vault.
Under the searchlights of the drones, the light in the distance soon came to an end.
A carved stone door blocked everyone’s prying eyes.
There was a complicated magic circle drawn on the door, as well as runes written in ancient pharaohs language.
The drone turned on the laser scanning module and scanned the entire stone door, sending the information back to the spaceship above the island.
Troy, who was on the spaceship, sent the data back to the underground data center of Shandu through the sky Eye satellite. After searching through the ancient pharaohs and all the books that recorded formations, he finally found the answer.
“Head of state, there’s a sacrificial array on this stone door, and it says,’offer your blood to open this door. A precious treasure on your body, at my command.”
“So,” link said,”this magic circle is a contract magic circle?”
troy’s voice came from the drone, ” “Yes, it’s a variant of an ancient contract formation. However, logically speaking, if the holder of the magic circle dies, even if the blood sacrifice activates the magic circle, the contract won’t be signed.”
Just as link was hesitating, King Kong stepped out and said, ” “Amitabha, I’ll open this door. The level of my contract with the boss should be higher than this array. Furthermore, I can use my Buddhist golden body of virtue to break free from the formation contract.”
Without waiting for Link’s permission, King Kong had already placed his hand on the center of the magic circle.
A stream of golden blood seeped out from the center of his palm and filled the entire array.
Crack, crack!
The door slowly opened.
Golden light leaked out from the cracks of the stone door, and the ground was filled with dazzling gold, silver, and jewelry.
among the gold and silver jewelry, link sharply saw fragments of the hive made of gold.
At the same time, a voice resounded through the door.
