Chapter 272: The Sarcophagus (First Update)
Thanks to 1 commuter pass of 【】, 1 commuter pass of the apple that was bitten.
………………
In the dimly lit Metcalfe cemetery, there is silence all around, and one can't help but feel like you're in endless darkness.
"Fireball!"
At this time, after Roland was sure that he was safe, he immediately summoned a fireball spell with his hand.
This is also something that cannot be helped, after all, there is no light here, and if you don't create a little light source, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see the road under your feet.
With a whirl, as the firelight appeared in the void, the dazzling light also illuminated the surroundings.
Under the reflection of the firelight, Roland hurriedly looked around.
Although she is temporarily out of danger of being chased by Evelyn, it is better to be cautious in this completely unfamiliar place.
It was clearly visible that he was now in what resembled an entrance hall.
Not far in front of you, there is a path that leads people forward, and it seems that it should be a passage to the depths of the cemetery.
There are also two rows of centaur sculptures next to the passage, which stretch along the passage to the end.
"There is no description on the treasure map, and the soul of the frost spoon has disappeared, so it is a problem to not have a guide."
Suddenly, Roland remembered the figure of the centaur girl in his mind, and immediately clapped his hands { and said, "By the way, Christie might know something." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Roland opened the door to the Ouroboros Ring and released Christie and the two daughters from inside.
"Mentor Roland, where is this?"
As soon as Retanas came out of it, she looked around in confusion and asked him.
Although the centaur girl Christie was also puzzled, she didn't ask out loud, just curiously observing the centaur sculptures.
"This is supposed to be Metcalfe's graveyard, and now we need to get there. Christie. You can read the words, right? I'll take the trouble to keep an eye on your surroundings, as there may be some secrets or dangers hidden here. ”
As he spoke, Roland reached out and pointed to the wall next to the sculpture.
Because this cemetery contains a large number of centaur characters, Christie's zài is extremely important, because she has to collect the traces that may be stored in zài as she walks.
"Okay. I'll pay attention, Lord Roland. ”
Christie replied lightly, and then walked absentmindedly in the direction of the passage.
Seeing this scene, Roland could only shake his head helplessly.
It seems that the graveyard of the centaur heroes has a great impact on her.
"Ritanas, keep up with me, and ...... Don't touch anything casually. ”
"Yes, Mentor."
Roland called an excited Ritanath to the side and slowly followed the centaur girl.
In this way, the three of them followed the somewhat long passage. Keep walking towards the depths of the cemetery.
"Lord Roland, it's just a story about Metcalfe's past."
Suddenly, Christie, who was walking in front, turned around, looked at Roland and whispered.
Metcalfe's story?
When Roland heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little interested in his heart.
He groaned for a moment, and then began to say, "What kind of story? Speak up and listen. ”
"Yes, Lord Roland. Once upon a time, Metcalfe discovered something that could bring disaster to the entire tribe. Not even the gods can destroy it. So Metcalfe made a decision, he took that thing with him and stayed away from the tribe. Hide it in a place where no one knows. ”
Christie, a centaur girl, spoke softly as she checked the writing on the wall.
What brings calamity?
In an instant, Roland couldn't help but be shocked.
Judging by this information, it is definitely not a good thing, otherwise why would Metcalfe hide it.
And the intuition told him that the Church of Pure Darkness came here. I guess it's for that thing.
But why doesn't the treasure map mention this at all?
"Hmm...... Let's hope nothing worse happens. ”
There was a strange glint in Roland's eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
As time passed, and in a few moments, they came to the end of this passage.
In the bright light of the fire, you can clearly see a large number of items piled up all around. There are weapons, armor, and even magic stone statues.
But the most striking thing is the huge centaur statue directly in front of it.
Because the statue is so large, its head almost touches the ceiling, and it looks like a living giant.
"That's the Centaur Hero...... Metcalfe! ”
Christie excitedly pointed to the giant statue and said.
"Hmm."
Roland replied lightly, and then looked at the sarcophagus below the statue.
For some reason, that sarcophagus gave him a very evil feeling.
An ominous premonition crept through Roland's mind, as if something terrible was about to appear.
"Christie, stop, don't go near that place."
Roland frowned, and hurriedly asked the centaur girl to stop: "Let's take a look at the situation first, there is something wrong here." ”
"Huh?"
Christie glanced at Roland suspiciously, didn't say anything, just stopped as he was told.
Originally, she wanted to get a closer look at Metcalfe to get the statue, but since Roland, the owner, told her to stop, she had to stop, and it would be the same later.
"Whew...... You are waiting for me here. ”
Roland exhaled deeply, gave a sigh, and walked alone in the direction of the sarcophagus.
He didn't want to get that inheritance, just because if something changed, he had the teleportation skill and could better avoid danger.
And...... Although it is good to get the inheritance.
But Roland didn't want to lose Christie's followers.
The sound of his footsteps was loud in the spacious space, but it also made the atmosphere weirder.
"Miss Christie, will it be all right? I feel like it's like a grave for the dead, and it's creepy. ”
Retanas gripped the centaur girl's arm and said with a look of horror on her face.
"It's going to be fine, because this is the burial place of the hero Metcalfe, and ...... Lord Roland will certainly be able to protect us. ”
Christie smiled and stroked her head, then looked at the back of the man who was walking forward.
As long as he is there, there will definitely be no danger.
