Volume 1 The Prince of Tomb Robbers VII. Don't Give Up

I ended up being thrown on the hard stone floor, looked up and saw a guy wearing a tall hat.

This guy has a dignified appearance, a straight nose and a wide mouth, sharp eyes, a long robe and a coat, brocade clothes and jade clothes, and an official appearance.

Behind him, there stood a row of guards, and four or five attendants, carrying things, all respectful.

"Is this the criminal?" he began, but didn't look me in the eye.

"Your Excellency, this man is exactly. Someone replied.

"Princess Sarah's rabbit is precious, the only one in the entire empire. The fellow named Nong Xi said, "Then follow the previous method and give him a chance to choose." ”

So a man came to me with a plate.

I saw that there was a saucer on the plate, and on the plate there was a bowl, and a ball was hanging from the bowl.

The ball was the size of an egg, and its surface was divided into more than a dozen areas of red, blue, and yellow, each of which was about the same size.

"Blow!" the man said to me.

I glanced at him, and saw that the man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he didn't look like a bad guy, so I listened to him and blew at the ball.

Then, the ball began to spin rapidly.

It's fun!, I thought to myself.

After a few moments, the ball stopped, and the yellow side was the most upward.

When Nong Xi saw it, he said, "Okay, his fate has been decided, you can see what to do." ”

With that, he left.

Then, a whole bunch of people left.

My fate, my fate, is it going to let me go?

However, I was a little naΓ―ve in my thinking.

Four strong men lifted me up, ran quickly to a deep, large pond next to me, and threw me down with all their might.

I felt like I was falling, but I didn't see it for a long time.

What's going on?

I spread my limbs and found that I was able to float.

When I reacted, I was surprised to find myself in a package of black paint-thick liquid.

Above the head, there is a stone wall that is more than 20 meters high.

It turned out that I had been thrown into a very bottom place, a place full of mud and sewage, and I was falling into it.

The reason why I didn't get into it was because there were bones all around me.

There are too many dead human bones to hold me up so that I can still float on them.

Suddenly, there was a loosening around me, and something black popped up.

It was huge, bigger than a car, and it was guaranteed not to be a whole, but a part of it.

I gradually saw the outline.

The crocodile is a super large crocodile.

The snout alone was three meters long, and the whole head was as big as a bus.

Oh, my God!

I hurriedly turned over, and at an unbelievably fast speed, I ran wildly along the wall, and at one point rushed to the wall to a height of three or four meters.

The crocodile pressed over at a slow speed, and its momentum was extremely calm.

I panicked, my heart was beating to the limit, almost out of my chest, and the adrenaline was out of order.

The thing was so good that it stopped about ten meters away from me and didn't move.

It's a confident gesture to see how long I can jump!

Finally, in the midst of extreme panic, I had a trace of calm.

I don't know where I got my strength, I don't know what I thought at the time, but I jumped out of the way, jumped out of the high, jumped to an incredible place, on the head of the crocodile.

I slid down his head and down his back until I was caught in three protruding scales.

The crocodile retreated, and a large black wave waved.

Then, he started shaking his head hard, trying to throw me out.

I clung to the scale armor as hard as I could, hooked the other one with my foot, and held my body firmly inside his armor.

Still frantically shaken by him, I won't let go.

It took a long time for that thing to get me, so it didn't move.

Perhaps, he was tired and wanted to slow down.

Perhaps, he is also thinking that with my little nutrition, it is better to rest if it is not hard enough.

However, I was wrong, this old crocodile is more cunning than anyone else, otherwise he would not have lived in this pond for so long and eaten so many people!

He began to sink downward.

I saw that it was broken, and in this case, I would be lifted up by buoyancy and leave his body.

I'm not good at swimming, and I can't hold my breath for a long time, so wouldn't that be the rhythm of the end?

The only thing I can do now is to hold on to his scales and never let go!

Even if you drown me, I can't let go!

Slowly, I'm sinking a little bit.

I tried to hook the gap between his nails and keep myself from getting out of his body.

In the end, he sank completely into the pond, and I was left with only the neck up exposed.

The pond sewage was dirty and smelly, it was a foul smell, but I had to stay awake and not give up easily.

A large amount of white bones were next to my neck, and there was a skeleton with its mouth open, as if it was laughing at me.

I raised my head high and saw the blue sky and white clouds.

After a while, the clouds were overcast, and it began to rain.

It started with light rain and then heavy rain.

The big crocodile, after sinking into the pond for a long time, finally resurfaced.

I was taken out and baptized by the storm.

The rain fell for a while and gradually became lighter.

The wind is also less.

Sunlight comes and goes, but the light is much brighter.

I saw a dense crowd of people gathered high above the wall.

They were all looking at me, and I was like a juggling monkey in a zoo, receiving their enthusiastic attention.

There was also a man with his arms outstretched and pointing at me.

These onlookers are so cold-blooded, it's funny to watch me die, right?

The big crocodile started diving again, and little by little my body invaded the sewage.

The crowd above collectively cheered, as if it was a very interesting thing to see my end coming.

I was left with only one head exposed.

During this day, the big crocodile came and went, repeating it many times.

I was also cheered many times by the melon-eating crowd.

My hands were numb, and so were my feet.

Exhaustion has begun to eat away at my perseverance.

By the time I got over the third attempt to give up, it was getting late, and most of the crowd on top had already dispersed.

After a while, not a single member of the crowd above left, and all of them left.

To be honest, if there is no light here, they probably can't see clearly, so it's better to go home and have dinner early.

Just as despair struck me again, a bright light appeared in front of my eyes.

It's Leenda coming!

Her graceful figure hovered in the air, and I was renewing hope.

"Help me!" I shouted.

But she looked at me indifferently for a few moments, until I was about to cry, and then she said, "All the hope of saving yourself is in your own hands." ”

I was really going to cry, thinking to myself, without such inspiration, people are going to die, and if you don't help, you have to say that.

She said, "This world is unfortunate, we will never sympathize with the weak, nor will we pity the weak, only by being the strongest, will we not be harmed." ”

I dizzy, I really want to die, under her repeated blows.

She added, "Look behind you and see what's there." ”

I hurriedly turned around, only to see a few dark shadows approaching.

"They are the souls of those who die here, and they will not be scattered for many years. "I have called them to help you." ”

"At nightfall, without my presence, they will lead you into the water and help the Crocodile Emperor kill you. She said, "But now it is different, and I have called them to help you." ”

When I heard this, I was overjoyed, and the strength of my whole body quickly filled.

Leinda's next words were nothing less than a basin of cold water.

"After all, their help is auxiliary, and the main thing is you. ”

"What?" I asked.

"You have to use the method of 'manipulating the corpse' to save yourself. She said.

At this time, the big crocodile moved, which startled me.

"What did you say?" I asked.

"You learn the spell of 'manipulating corpses', and then use the thousands of corpses here to find a way to escape. She said.

The crocodile fell silent again.

I asked, "How?"

"See the necromancers in the back, and they can help you breathe new life into each scattered skeleton," she said. ”

I asked, "Tell me what to do!"

She told me how to establish a "magical connection" with the necromancy, how to perform "soul grafting", and how to perform "mystical rituals".

In fact, the hardest part of "manipulating corpses" is "summoning necromancy".

I realized this later.

Only after the "summoning of the necromancy" is successful, and the necromancers truly serve the summoner, can they realize the "magic connection" and successfully complete the next steps.

Leanda secretly did the hardest part for me.

About this, I only thought about it later.

When I learned the "soul grafting" and "mystical rituals", there were more than 300 necromancy.

Leinda said, "That's enough, there's no more to get left!"

I stopped practicing and started to get ready to escape.

A white skeleton rises from the pond.

They quickly gathered at the wall, under my command, and climbed up one by one.

Leanda said to me, "Hurry up and climb up by them, and I'll gather them for you." ”

Then, she didn't forget to tell me, "In the future, remember to use the spell we taught you earlier to get out of danger when it is dangerous." ”

I answered and ran as fast as I could.

When I stepped on the pile of bones and climbed up quickly, the big crocodile moved, and the speed was very fast.

He's going to ruin my good deeds!

The speed at which those white bones gathered was noticeably faster under Leinda's deployment, and I was climbing desperately, and the speed was also unbelievably fast.

When all the more than 300 necromancers were used up, I was less than two meters away from the top guardrail.

I tried to reach the guardrail, but I couldn't.

Below, the attack of the large crocodile has completely destroyed the pile of bones at the bottom.

My pedestal was collapsing layer by layer, and my body was slowly sliding.

At this time, Leanda flew up to me and said, "I'll help you with a spell, you have to kick hard, don't stop!"

I didn't even have time to answer her before I felt a force lifting me.

I kicked the stone wall with all my might, and my body suddenly rose up and swooped upward.

The strength I put in was definitely the last bit of strength.

I don't know how I got over the guardrail, or how I landed on the stone slabs.

I was unconscious, maybe from exhaustion, maybe from a heavy fall.
