Chapter 141: Tomb Hunting
At ten o'clock, the cemetery was already filled with white mist, and layers of stone monuments were hidden in it, and the team entered the cemetery from the path of the orphanage, and they did not alarm the grave keepers.
The black cloak stood beside the dry trunk of a tree by the side of the road, as quiet as a discarded object hanging from a branch.
"That man", Katrina vaguely recognized him, "is the soothsayer of the trade zone?"
"Yes", Tarrant stepped forward to beckon, "It's punctual, have you looked for it?"
The Prophet looked at Katrina through the brim of her cloak, "Surprise novel chapter. ”
"What do you mean?" Catrina didn't understand.
Tarrant snapped his fingers back to the soothsayer's attention, "The person we're looking for should be around here." ”
"You're late," the soothsayer turned to look ahead at the white mist, "there are people in this area that you can't handle. ”
"You've found him, we'll take care of it ourselves. ”
"There are two Grand Master-level mages," the Prophet pointed to the White Mist, "in that direction, about six hundred feet, they are together. ”
"Lovell", Tarrant nodded to Kira Veton and Katrina, the distance was close, and the battle was about to begin.
The priest waved his cloak, "The other one is Graydon who attacked you?"
"I guess so", this was Tarrant's guess, and with Lovell's contempt for others, he shouldn't cooperate with other Grand Master Mages.
"Not on the ground", the Prophet pointed down, "the Eagle Eye can't find a ground target." ”
"I see," Tarrant said, pulling out the dragon emblem, "he's hiding in a certain tomb." You can leave and thank you for your help. ”
The Prophet didn't answer, and the teleportation flashed.
"Are we going to rob the tomb?" said Kiravidon, taking a sip of dragon wine.
"We're not going to take a single item from the tomb, just passing by," Tarrant said first into the White Mist, "stay on guard, that mage will set a magic trap." ”
Katrina took his hand, "Let me come", and the trick worked.
"Let me do it anyway," Kira Verton said, holding his hand. "Worship all the spirits!" the ground beneath his feet made a strange noise. "In the name of death, at my command!" a phalanx suddenly burst out of the earth, pressing against the ground to pull the rest of the ground out, a trembling skeleton. A low-quality necklace hangs around his neck.
"They don't do much". Tarrant doesn't want to spoil the tranquility of its inhabitants.
"Mortal Spirits!" Kira Veton strode forward. More of the dead responded to the call of the gods to awaken from their slumber, skulls, phalanges pushing the ground open, "Guys. Follow me", the priest pushed forward in the encirclement of the Legion of Bones.
"Tomorrow that gravekeeper will be busy," Tarrant followed them.
"No traps detected", Catrina reminded from time to time, and the magic feedback in the area was calm.
There were really no traps, six hundred feet away was just a flat field through which the path passed, there were no tombstones, no cemeteries, and the grass was level.
"Is your friend reliable?" said Kira Veton commanding the undead to disperse in all directions.
"All his words have been fulfilled," said Tarrant, crouching on the grass, "Lovell may have set up a chamber underground rather than using the existing tombs. ”
"The entrance should be nearby, under some tombstone", Kirawiton began to look for a possibility nearby, "Did you detect a trap door?"
"No...... Wait", Katrina closed her eyes, she felt the fluctuations, "There are traps", she continued forward to a meadow, "Here!" she tapped her toes to the ground, "Psychic blast, attached." ”
Tarrant and Kiraweton looked at each other and nodded, it was Lovell's habit, yes, he was underground.
"There is no mechanism on the ground", Katrina carefully examined.
"Look for the entrance nearby," Tarrant walked towards the tombstones, the low stones covered in dust and the ground covered in weeds with no signs of moving, "Looks like we need to expand the search area." ”
"It's not easy to set up such a secret room," said Kira Veton, sitting on the tombstone, his name on the soles of his feet, "I don't think there is a passageway." ”
Katrina chimed softly, "I agree, it's more convenient to use the space you have, the tomb is too small and closed, and he needs the space to be easy to get in and out and safe enough." ”
"You mean......" Tarrant looked at the area, and he said with the mage, "Sewers." ”
"Clever", the priest commanded the skeletons to pry open the nearest manhole cover, and one skeleton jumped down the dark passage, "pop", smashing sound.
"No traps detected here," Catrina looked down, darkness engulfing all vision.
"Osteoporosis," Kirawiton said, putting away his wine, "their bones are fragile due to long-term rest and lack of exercise, and life lies in movement." ”
"They're already lifeless, don't be sports", Tarrant took out his badge, "Hold my hand", the three members of the team held each other, and night vision activated.
The priest's guess was correct, the white bones were scattered directly underneath, there were no traps, and it was the fall that destroyed it.
Tarrant jumped down the aisle, and a huge rat ran past his feet, squeaking happily forward, the air filled with the smell of rot, disgusting but not deadly.
Katrina rolled up her robe and jumped in, "Trap in front left", and she saw a corner in her field of vision, and she reached for her staff.
Kira Veton disbanded the Legion of Bones, and the loose patients had no need to follow, and she landed beside Tarrant, "This place needs to be cleaned up. There are two opponents in front of you, how are you going to deal with them?"
"The two of them will not live in peace, we are just here to receive the fruits of the victory of one of them, Katrina is ready to shine the magic light, and cast it at the first sight of them", the mage nodded in agreement, and Tarrant continued: "Kiravidon protects the summons of the twilight of sarin, my true vision will not give the mage any chance to escape, Katrina uses invisibility to protect herself...... Have you memorized invisibility?"
"Of course," Katrina nodded vigorously, "I'll protect myself and follow this plan." ”
"Plans can change at any time," Kira Veton patted the mage on the shoulder.
"Squeak!" stopped abruptly, the rodent's scream.
Tarrant quickly held his sword in front of Katrina, "Ready!"
Kiravidon took out the silver hammer and waited behind the mage.
Poof~ A strange sound came from the darkness ahead.
"Footsteps?" said the priest very slightly, "platform leather boots?"
The dragon emblem strengthens Maxine's blessing and presents it to his teammates, and Tarrant listens carefully, poof~poof~
"It's like...... Bubbling?" said Katrina, dodging the stinking waterways at her feet, which were covered with broken rags, black oily vegetation, twig leaves, and the rotting hair of some creature.
Poof~ The sound was very close, and Tarrant stared at the ground, "It's gelatinized acid sludge." ”
"What's that?" the priest saw a large lump of gelatinous matter rolling slowly on the damp ground, and many debris could be faintly seen in the gelatinous body, black leaves stained with feces, several white bony particles, rusty mechanical parts, a clumped mouse, its fur and pupils had disappeared, and the blood-red muscles revealed pale bone tissue, and the coccyx was separated from the body one by one.
"It's digesting food", Catrina took a step back, "we'd better avoid it", the tail of the sludge revealing a palm-sized human skull, "it will eat anything." ”
"No, take the torch," Tarrant held out his hand to Kirawyton, "it's Graydon! (To be continued......)
