Chapter 0956: The Great Tomb
"No, wait a minute......"
A paladin, whose body was half charred, propped up his body with the remnants of his right arm and shouted, "Catherine, go! The Light teaches us to be brave and worthwhile. If you don't take the lead and leave, I'm afraid they'll stay like you......"
Looking at the armor and clothing style on his body, he is a second-order silver knight.
However, compared with the wounded around him, the injuries on his body were undoubtedly the heaviest, almost on the verge of dying, and even the voice of his shouts was hoarse and low.
The girl Catherine was stunned when she heard this, and looked around, only to find that nearly a hundred apprentice knights like her were slowly surrounding her, blocking the wounded. There was fear, cringe, and confusion in their eyes, but more than that, they were more resolute than ever......
"Take them away, pass on the holy light forever, we can't let the holy light of our northern counties go out......" At this point, the second-order silver knight was already hoarse and could not continue.
Time ticked and ticked, and this midshipman named Catherine had never experienced such a painful choice. Seeing that the time set by the terrifying flame giant was about to come, she finally gritted her teeth fiercely and said vigorously, "Let's go ......"
Yan Yan was the first to take the lead and walked towards the large humanoid hole that had been melted out.
The rest of the probationary knights, you look at me, I look at you, and finally followed.
What is this going on? I look like a villain......
Grim muttered dissatisfiedly inwardly, unaware that his current appearance and actions were no longer any different from the horror lord in knightly novels.
For these apprentice knights, who could not extract any surplus value, Grim was not interested in holding up the butcher's knife. The dazzling fire elemental gathered in his hand suddenly turned into a huge flame aura and sowed onto the bodies of these apprentice knights in a whisper.
The apprentice knights who had just walked to the door suddenly became nervous, and they all waited for each other, thinking that the flame giant in front of them had repented. But the aura of flame spilled over their bodies, but it didn't hurt them.
"You can go!" Grim muffled, "This flame aura has my soul aura attached to it, and if you take it with you, you won't be attacked by dragons, flame tigers, and fire creatures anymore." Remember, just leave the city and don't stop anywhere, because this ring of flames will only exist for a quarter of an hour!"
Hearing this, many of the apprentice knights looked at each other, not knowing whether to hate this evil flame giant or to be grateful to each other. They looked at each other in confusion and finally left slowly.
However, what they didn't know was that when the dense flame aura shrouded the girl Catherine, a tiny flame rune fell on her shoulder, flickered for a moment, and then disappeared strangely.
And she didn't know anything about the whole process.
Looking at the group of little ones slowly leaving, Grim's flaming giant face couldn't help but have an incomprehensible smile.
Although he didn't care about these little guys, it didn't mean that he didn't know anything about their secret little actions. The group of ordinary people who left first were mixed with several special people, although they changed into civilian clothes, but under the mental scanning of the chip almost full-screen dialysis, their gorgeous and exquisite silk underwear, as well as some seals, contract documents and other items hidden in their arms, still exposed them.
Judging by the situation, they seem to be some big people in this Hakans city, most likely the city lord, governor or something.
If you replace Grim with Thunderdragon Arms, you must take them down. In this way, it is much easier and faster to rob the city's treasure trove.
It's a pity that Grim's concern and focus is not on the treasures of the world, but on these paladins in front of him. Therefore, there was no way to stop those guys from fleeing in panic in the crowd.
As for letting go of this group of trainee knights, in addition to not wanting to create senseless killings, it is more about wanting to know where they are going. The largest Chapel of Light in the Northern County has been taken by himself, so what Grim needs to do next is to attack everywhere and quickly sweep the small chapels in the surrounding cities.
However, the Zambis Empire is also a vast country with vast lands, powerful armies, and many paladins. Although he took a large city of theirs by surprise, it does not mean that the other party has no ability to fight back.
Once the other party mobilizes a large group of high-level paladins, not too many, two or three golden knights are enough to make Grim get nothing. Even if one is not good, Grim has to turn around and try to avoid the pursuit of the other party.
After all, this is a strange plane, a hostile country!
As long as he didn't meet those two 4th orders, the strength of the 3rd order with Grim was enough to be invincible here, but he still needed to be careful that the indigenous powerhouses of his own plane might dig a terrible trap for him.
Once he is lured into a trap by the enemy, and then besieged by multiple opponents of the same rank, even with Grim's strength and conceit, it is possible to fall here. Therefore, how to get some information inside the paladin becomes invaluable.
This little guy named Catherine, although his strength is not very good, he is resolute and pure, and he is also a good seedling suitable for taking the Paladin route. After this tempering, she is very likely to be accepted as a disciple by a high-ranking paladin. In this way, Grim will be able to use her as a medium to get some internal movements and news from the paladin.
Not only Catherine, but also in the team of trainee knights who left, Grim has silently planted some flame runes on the guys with a little foundation. These fire runes are usually recessive and do not have any effect on the host at all. But as long as the host's spiritual consciousness is strongly focused on Grim, even if it is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, it can attract his attention.
Such fire runes have actually involved many witchcraft disciplines such as mutation, spiritual energy, curse science, and precognition. Grim has only just mastered these contents after advancing to the 3rd tier.
After all the miscellaneous fish left, the cathedral finally fell silent, only the seriously injured and dying paladins and some extremely devout followers of the Holy Light, and Grim stopped talking nonsense, and with a wave of his big hand, a huge wave of fire surged, instantly burning everything inside to ashes.
After successfully harvesting nearly a hundred holy lights, Grim licked his lips with satisfaction, and his eyes fell on his feet.
"Here...... Dig down for me!"
Under his assignment, the powerful elemental magic machine temporarily transformed into an engineering machine, and quickly dug a huge pit in the central floor of the charred church with one punch.
When the excavation depth reached 5 meters, the heavy elemental magic machine fell into a huge cavern as the earth and rock collapsed.
Grim didn't seem surprised by this, and with a few incantations, his massive body of flame began to shrink rapidly, eventually returning to its original human form.
The Burning Corona, the Fire Emblem, the Fire Dragon Pendant, the Boots of Ashes, the Belt of the Dreadnought, and a dark red wizard's robe all emerged from his body, radiating a misty red glow. Only then did Grim leap into the cave and slowly float down to the bottom of the cave.
It was a large, simple and crude tomb, and the surrounding rock walls had been excavated into small cells one meter square, each of which was wrapped in a gray-white shroud wrapped in dry bones. In some small compartments, there are still some armor or weapons of a primitive style that have lost their metallic luster.
There is no jewel to be seen in the entire interior of the tomb, nor is there any fine artwork to be seen. As far as the eye can see, it looks like a dusty antique market, full of gray and lifeless scenes. Everything was covered in dust and cobwebs, making it almost impossible to see what was underneath.
Elemental magic machines rained down with tons of rock shards and gravel, shattering every corner of the tomb. Countless dry bones slipped out of the collapsed tomb and scattered to the ground.
Grim frowned slightly after seeing everything inside.
He didn't have the patience to inspect and search for the treasures here, so with another wave of his hand, a huge blast of flame began to sweep through the entire tomb with impunity.
What can survive thousands of years is necessarily a good thing, and what can withstand the fire without being damaged is also a good thing...... As for whether the precious and rare knight's pen or The Elder Scrolls will be destroyed in the flames in the process, this is not something for Grim to consider.
Under the repeated erosion of flame ripples, the cobwebs turn to ash, the dust crystals, the dry bones are incinerate, and the metal is melted...... When these 'debris' flew away one by one, some of the real treasures hidden under them were finally revealed.
Whether it's a fragment of a skeleton that defies fire, or a piece of metallic ore that flows shiny, or a magical sword that glows with a misty glow, or a strange shield with a dull color......
None of this caught Grim's attention, though, and his gaze was firmly fixed on the strange coffin in the middle of the tomb.
It is a huge coffin made entirely of unknown and exotic metal, quietly placed in the center of the tomb, with some intricate and delicate patterns etched on it, which is still very rare among paladins who have always admired simplicity and simplicity.
You must know that in this huge tomb, even those high-level paladins of the second and third orders are only wrapped in a thin layer of shroud and put into the tomb after death. There are also swords, shields, or armor that they used in their lifetimes.
And this paladin is eligible for such treatment, which highlights his difference!
Grim's heart moved, and a look of surprise finally appeared on his face.
