Alloy (39)
Once again, we came to a dead end, a dead end that should not have appeared on the map, completely blocking Sakasha's path.
Looking at the completely different environment from the map in his hand, Sakasha was no longer angry at this time, and he was sure that there would be no problem with the ruin information left by his allies, so there was only one reason for such a result now: the terrain inside the ruins had changed!
Hearing the footsteps of a large number of mummies behind him again, Sakasha did not intend to kill them all, these undead creatures wrapped in bandages seemed endless and could not be killed by any means.
I can't remember how many mummies I killed, hundreds or thousands? When I found myself lost on the second floor of the ruins, a sense of powerlessness rose from the bottom of my heart.
Although it is possible to complete the quest now to get out of the quest world, the reward for only completing the main quest in Hardmode is a blood loss, and Sakasha would never want to do such a thing.
Suddenly, Sakasha saw a strange spider with green shoots growing in a kennel above his head, and a smile appeared on its face hidden by its black veil.
With a flick of his hand, he wiped out all the mummies that were slowly moving towards him, shot a non-lethal parasite egg into the spider on the wall, and followed the spider briskly through the dark passage.
"That guy has been lured away, and now the spider is following me in circles, what the hell are you going to do?" Noah asked as he controlled the spider and walked around Sakasha.
She had expected Zero to have the parasitic spider take the contractor to the brood to help her kill the mother spider, but that didn't seem to be the case now.
"It's too early, the strength of the Mother of Spiders has definitely reached the 'boss level', and besides, I'm afraid that the contractor won't team up with us, after all, the other party's main mission is not it." Zero didn't look back at the explanation, but his eyes were still staring at the Arab Tears in a daze.
"And the ones we need to woo are them!" Zero raised his hand and pointed to the three contractors lying in the cocoon, Noah had already discovered the existence of the three of them.
At this time, these three contractors can be said to be miserable, their bodies are covered with scars, and the equipment they are wearing is basically in a state of scrap, and they are sitting on the ground in a state of exhaustion to recover their strength.
"Don't underestimate any contractor, they dare to come here to prove that their strength is definitely not weak, simply put, these people are still useful, and that guy is on..."Looking at the appearance of the three contractors in the distance, Zero did not finish, but continued to stare at the Tears of Arabia in a daze after assigning a new task to Noah.
It wasn't until Noah told him that the Mother Spider had returned, that Zero picked up the Tears of Arabia, and when his finger touched the gem, he was able to obtain the gem's item information:
Arabian Tears (part 1 of 4)
Type: Quest item
Quality: Epic
Special effect:???
Conditions of use: None
Item Class: First tier
Notes: This purple gem has some kind of evil attached to it, which may have unknown consequences for the owner, this item is one of the important items for the resurrection of the Pharaoh, and the wielder may be hunted down by the Mummy Legion! (This item cannot be stored in storage)
Zero had been prepared for this, and the moment he took the gem away, the withered head of the dried corpse in front of him suddenly turned around.
The empty eyes seemed to be "staring" at Zero, and the lips that were chapped and closed were slightly open as if they wanted to say something, and Zero actually felt a trace of it from that terrifying face... Pleasure?
I'm Scott. Amundsen, a well-known one, well, I'm actually a very famous archaeologist!
Many years ago, I led a huge expedition through the desert and finally found the legendary ancient ruins, which is where the most famous jewel in Arab mythology, the "Tears of Arabia", was last mentioned and appeared.
Legend has it that this gem will grant immortality to those who receive it, and tens of thousands of archaeologists, tomb robbers, and even warlords throughout the ages have searched for this ruin, but no one has ever found it or they may have found it but...!
After months of exploring the interior of the ruins, and finally finding the Arab Tears I had coveted in an unknown dried corpse, I was pretty sure that this ancient ruin was definitely not something that humans could build.
The ruins contain many secrets that I can't understand, and if I crack them, the world will be a different place!
The trigger to change the world is now in my hands, eh? Why did those rude mercenaries shoot? What dangers can there be in the ruins? Those damn ... Oh! Oh, my God! Look what I found! Mummy! It's actually a living mummy!
Before I knew it, I was separated from the members of the expedition, and the mummies that kept appearing seemed to be chewing gum stuck to the soles of my boots, and I really missed those rude mercenaries who at least they could protect me!
I don't know how long I walked, I was tired and thirsty at this time, and I didn't know where to throw my backpack for a long time, of course, I would never let go of that Arab tear, and I wouldn't die!
Chased by the mummy, I had gone deep into the ruins, and cobwebs began to appear around me, oh! Oh, my God! There are such huge spiders in the world!
I swear to God that giant spider is even bigger than that vintage car from my father's collection, oh no, it found me! Don't you come here!! (Huh!) )
Strange, why is there a white expanse all around? Where is this? Why can't I speak? Why can't I breathe? Why can't I move!
I don't know how long I've been like this, but I'm starting to forget a lot of things, all I remember is that my name is Scott. Amundsen is an unlucky archaeologist, I came to some ancient ruins and found a gem, and it was now shining a brilliant purple light in my hand, I was attacked by a huge spider, it wrapped me in a cocoon and brought me back to the nest, can anyone come to save me?
Well? What's going on around you? How can it be so noisy? How can there be a tearing and crashing sound outside the cocoon? What's going on? What the hell is going on?
After a while, the surroundings finally fell silent, and suddenly I seemed to hear a loud hiss, followed by a series of hissing sounds echoing around me!
I'm pretty sure I'm dead, unfortunately I'm not dead, and now I finally know that this legendary gem in my hand really has the power to immortalize people, but at this time this power is endless torture for me!
I don't know how many years have passed, but I always listen to the sound of spiders screaming outside the cocoon, and I pray that they will find me and eat me! I want to die, I really want to die!
I don't know who I am, the white curtain has been opened, a face with black glasses has appeared in front of me, I don't know how many years have passed, I want to see the same human as me again, I want to open my mouth to speak, I want to move my stiff body, I want to throw away the damn gem in my hand!
My body began to wither, my clothes were no match for the baptism of time and became rags, and after I became a dried corpse, my eyes were useless and I couldn't see anything, but I was still alive!
If I could speak, I would have shouted, "Take it!" Hurry up and take it! Take that damn gem from my hands! ”
I'm finally dying! I could feel the life draining through my body, the damn gem in my hand finally being taken, and I could even feel that the person who had taken it was nearby.
I tried to turn my stiff neck and it worked! I would like to thank that kind man for killing me! But I couldn't make a sound but smile in the direction where he was, hoping he wasn't scared by my face now! That's great! I can finally be free!
My name is Scott. Amundsen, before I die, I sincerely pray to God for the last time that my heirs will never come in search of the "Arab Tears", because this is a gem with a vicious curse!
