In the dark passage, the group walked slowly with the faint light of the fluorescent stone. Knowing that there is a terrifying crisis ahead, whether it is the devil sandworm or those cursed ruin guardians, they can easily take their lives!

Scattered footsteps, accompanied by the sound of heavy breathing, echoed in the passage, like a heavy hammer striking on everyone's hearts. Regret is like the fear of the moment, constantly fermenting in the heart, or it won't be long before they can completely swallow them.

Unbeknownst to the group, at the back of their line was a half-naked, lifeless young man......

Taryn had been with the team for a while, and in the beginning, the men would talk to each other. But since one of them was captured by the living corpse just now, no one was in the mood to talk. However, according to their previous conversations, Taryn also almost understood the whole story, but he still had a lot of questions about himself.

This is an unlicensed expedition to the ruins, and the owner has hired these mercenaries, historians, and explorers at a high price to explore this ancient ruins located beneath the desert. When Tyron was still alive, he had also heard the name "King of the Night", which was said to be a city founded by the demigod Desmond in the desert, and it was a prosperous city that was the center of trade for the entire continent of Etenus.

Later, for unknown reasons, the King of the Night disappeared overnight, and Desmond's magic of the eternal night that covered the entire desert was lifted, and the scorching desert once again became a natural ditch that divided the continent.

There are less than ten people left in the team that Tyron is following, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to leave this ruin. And Taryn himself gradually remembered everything......

According to his memory, he was the fourth prince of the Emerald Empire, and was sent by His Majesty the King to the west of the continent to negotiate with the Norman Empire as an emissary, hoping to open up a safe trade route in the desert.

It's just that halfway through, he was attacked by the knight in charge of protecting his safety and fell on the yellow sand......

"I'm supposed to be dead...... Yes, I'm dead, and my body sinks into the ruins with quicksand. It was this group of people who broke into the ruins and activated the curse that brought me back to life in such a state. Taryn remembered everything, and at the same time understood that he was not alive at all.

Most of his body is filled with yellow sand, and although his perception is strong, his movements have become a little slower than that of ordinary people.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself in his heart: "As a traverser, I have lived for more than ten years and achieved nothing, and I died outside, I should be regarded as the most failed traverser, right?" However, since I can still wake up, even in the form of an undead, I must seize this last luck! ”

Thinking of this, he silently recited the word "system" in his heart.

The next moment, in his blurred vision, there were text projections.

The Tree of Life seed affected by the Curse of the Dead? Taryn couldn't help but frown. But just such a slight facial movement caused a crack on his forehead, and a little grit fell off.

Luckily there were no mirrors, otherwise Taryn wouldn't have known if he would have been scared by himself.

The squad was already on the verge of collapse, and Taryn was only halfway through, not knowing what they had been through.

Just as he was considering whether he should go it alone, a strange sound suddenly came from ahead.

The originally silent team began to riot again.

"Damn, those shitty things again? How can we get out of this hellish place! ”

"Be quiet, Rogers, do you want to go back empty-handed?"

"I wouldn't mind if I could go back...... One of my hands is empty anyway. The other man, who had lost an arm, barely spoke in a relaxed tone.

Rogers scratched his head in annoyance and said, "Damn! Damn it! Damn it! We shouldn't have come to this place in the first place. ”

"Hey, be optimistic, man, why don't you want to order a good one. Like what...... Didn't Senny ask you to take care of his wife before he died? It's the job you've ever dreamed of. Hahaha......" the one-armed man laughed as he spoke.

But the others did not laugh and even developed some hostility towards the one-armed man.

Tyron, who was following them, suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a mark on the one-armed man's neck.

He hadn't seen the sigil, but he knew what it meant—it was a curse, a curse that transformed living beings into guardians!

Thalen, who was resurrected by a mysterious curse ritual, has a lot of information about the ruins in his head. But no matter which message he is, it is to him to emphasize the horror of this place. Powerful sorcery spells are almost everywhere, with near-immortal ruin keepers, roaming living corpses, and countless demonic sandworms......

What are these people here for? Just a treasure hunt? That's a lot to pay!

Although the group of people inadvertently activated the ritual to allow them to "resurrect", Taryn knew that these people did not mean to, and he would not be grateful to them. I followed them, firstly, to see if I could find a way out of here, and secondly, I was naturally curious about their purpose.

"Hear as if there were footsteps."

Although Taryn is no longer a living person, his perception ability has greatly improved, and he has actually "heard" the footsteps of the leader for a while. It's just that he's a little strange, those footsteps aren't from the ruins keepers, and they aren't living corpses.

The unknown situation made him choose to retreat and completely hide himself in the dark.

The few remaining members of the expedition took out their weapons one after another and prepared for battle. They can't turn back, because behind them are living corpses and ruin guardians, and if they do, they will die! The enemy ahead is still unknown, and at least the footsteps don't sound like living corpses and ruin guardians.

Soon, Taryn could see what they were. They have huge eyes, a nose that sinks in, and a bloody mouth. He was covered in turquoise and held a bone stick that resembled a baseball bat, and a few held stone sticks.

"Goblins? How did it get here? "Tylen is a little confused, the goblins are a humanoid race, almost extinct in the continent, how can they live in this underground ruins?

Moreover, the entire ruins are full of living corpses and guardians, and it is impossible for any living creature to get close, how do they survive?

The expedition, which was exhausted and numbered less than ten people, fought against more than a hundred goblins, and there was little suspense about the outcome of the battle. Taryn didn't care too much about the lives of these people, since there were goblins in this place, then this direction should be the way to leave.

Goblins cannot live within the ruins, only in the vicinity. His primary purpose now was to get out of this place, or at least to return to the surface, before he could carry out his plan.

The tree of life, which should have been planted a long time ago, has undergone a change because of its own delay. He must deal with it as soon as possible, or he may lose this part of the resource.

He didn't know how long he had been dead, but judging by the extent of the decomposition of his body, it should not be short.
