Chapter 349: Hanging corpses on the top of the tomb

。 His prayer was low and full of awe. For a moment, his voice echoed throughout the dark hall, until the silence once again engulfed the sound of the crowd. Vanessa lowered her head, and from the place where the sun could be seen from the D-mouth, she stepped completely into the darkness, her sword firmly in her hand. If there is any danger ahead, they will surely shout loudly.

The tomb hall was large and empty, with high facades, dusty everywhere, and extremely woody. The people in front walked to the center, and the torches slowly became heavy and swayed. There is a raised platform on the floor, which is in the shape of an arc. At the edge of the circle, four sleek, towering stone pillars stretched symmetrically from the ground to the top of the tomb, out of sight.

In the faint light, just a few steps away, there was a coffin. The whole body is made of huge black stone, the body is extraordinarily huge, and the coffin body is inlaid with brilliant jade stones, surrounded by golden ancient inscriptions. Under the flickering light of the torches, the inscriptions also flickered. This coffin must have contained some noble and extraordinary person, or a giant - it was too big.

In the middle of the edge of the platform, there are two empty braziers, taller than Brandt. From there, two dusty streamers hung from the ends, which looked a bit like curtains, but under the thick dust, no one could tell what kind of fabric it was. All you can see is that it hangs there silently, motionless.

But at this moment, the grumpy Zoe, the awe-filled Aman, and the courageous princess are not looking at the magnificent tomb. They stared intently at something else—something closer to them, something hanging overhead. Brant glanced at it, then looked around the tomb hall, looking for other entrances and possible dangers. The tip of the sword in his hand shimmered, but nothing happened.

Above their heads, about fifty feet in the air, hung a ragged corpse, which was supposed to be a human being. The corpse's legs were in the air, and it was covered in a thick layer of dust, which from a distance looked like the hair of a beast. Two thick and strong spiders protruded from the roof and the walls, as strong as ropes.

"That thing was a person, it used to be, I guess." Vanessa whispered, saying what everyone was guessing. "Either this is the owner of the tomb or one of Godwin's three sons." The rest nodded slowly, having to agree with her.

"No, never." Behind the crowd, the beautiful Helen prayed to the Father and the Virgin with her hands clasped together and her voice trembling.

"Did you say he was killed by a trap, or did he die by magic?" Aman whispered, "Or, it's a ghost guard?" It waits here for years, usually just asleep, and when someone like us breaks in, it ...... us," he said, making a "cluck" in his throat.

"We can't afford to gamble on such a thing," said Brandt, somewhat crudely, "that he is probably the owner of the tomb." But in any case, he is now hanging on our heads, and no one's actions can escape his eyes. Guys, let's step back. ”

The nameless party scattered in four different directions, backwards through the room, the torches already dimmering at the moment. Zoe reached into the large pocket on her shoulder with her backhand, fumbling for other torch heads. Lloyd raised his hands, cupped, and whispered a spell for a while, then spread his hands. Vanessa was glad that she had chosen a few of their knights to follow her into the tomb, and at the moment, in the dark tombs, the most useful thing was magic.

A fluttering speck of rust flickered between the knight's hands, and a moment later it flashed and leaped brightly, grabbing everyone's attention. But seeing that it was like a glittering long sword, breaking through the dark space and hanging in the air, it ran into something. A breathless rain of dust fell fiercely.

The clods of earth smashed on the heads of the six adventurers from a high place in all directions, like the sudden force of hail hanging on the branches of a tree. They coughed, fanned their hands hard against their eyes and noses, shook their heads, and couldn't help but retreat.
