Chapter 52: A First Exploration of the Emperor's Tomb
Wu Hao also finally understood, why the scaly beast made a hole here and left, the powerful beast was born with a sense of oppression for the weak beast, and the scaly beast must have felt this sense of oppression, so he quickly fled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wu Hao was a senior otaku in his previous life, and his cautious temperament had long been cultivated, although he came to this world, he got relatively strong power, and his actions became a little flamboyant, but he was not yet flamboyant to the extent that he didn't know the importance of life and death. There was obviously an extremely dangerous beast here, and although he was looking for wealth and danger, he decided to find the exit before there was a definite benefit.
Wu Hao quickly picked up a few gold and silver tickets scattered next to the wreckage, although the mosquito leg is small, it is also meat! After that, he quickly ran along the road in the direction of the exit. Although his speed was extremely fast now, he didn't dare to use his body in this dark underground passage, so he hurried at the speed of ordinary people, and walked for nearly an hour in a zigzag, and finally came to the huge room with a suspected exit shown on the map.
The room seems to be a hall, about 50 meters in length and width, and about 20 meters in height. There was nothing in the hall, except for a huge statue in the center. The statue is about eight meters high, and it is an image of a warrior with a giant sword, he is dressed in gluttonous dragon scale armor, and the cloak on his back is slightly raised. His face was full of cheeks, square mouth and big ears, thick eyebrows were wrinkled, and his eyes looked ahead, and his eyes seemed to flow with brilliance.
Wu Hao walked into the hall and was faced by a tall stone door, the stone door was closed, but there was a small hole one meter square not far from the door. Wu Hao smiled, this should be the passage dug by the scaly beast when it entered. Looking back, sure enough, there were three circular arches, which were the entrances to the three corridors leading to the room in the distance, and Wu Hao came out of the door on the far right.
Wu Hao came to the statue in the middle of the hall, and then saw that there was a platform under the statue, and four big characters were engraved on the platform: Sword Emperor Li Mu.
Looking at the words on the platform, Wu Hao finally knew what kind of place this was, and felt that this was the cemetery of his grandfather. The Zhentian Sword Sect was founded 1,500 years ago, and its founder, Li Mu, was the general of the Qianlong Empire, and reached the level of a senior sword lord at the age of forty, but he was discouraged by the death of his wife, and resigned from the court to concentrate on practicing swords and martial arts. In another ten years, he broke through to the realm of the Sword Emperor and was recruited as a mentor by the Hidden Dragon Holy Land. However, because of his lonely temperament and perennial high position, he was not good at speaking, so he offended the elders of the Holy Land Sword Academy at that time, and was often excluded, so he left the Holy Land in a fit of anger, came to this Tianzhen Peak to establish his own sect, devoted himself to cultivation, and eventually became a generation of peak Sword Emperors.
Before Li Mu died, he handed over the aftermath to his son Li Tianyu. At that time, Li Tianyu had inherited his father's position in the court and became the general of the Qianlong Empire.
Since it was built in secret, naturally no one knew its location, and I heard that Li Tianyu covered all the craftsmen in order to ensure confidentiality when he built the mausoleum, and then was led into the construction site by the flying beast. According to the craftsmen who came back later, Li Mu's tomb was both authentic and fake, with many mechanisms, and a large number of rare treasures were placed, which can be described as extremely luxurious.
Wu Hao, who is not luxurious and treasured, does not know, but there is indeed a record in the sect that when Li Mu was the tutor of the Qianlong Holy Land, he once followed the master of the Sword Academy, the sword saint Murong Ba, to learn swords, and the heaven-level middle-grade exercise "Burning Heaven Decision" that he learned was not passed on to the sect because it was promised. The sect suspects that this heaven-level exercise is in this mysterious emperor's mausoleum. Wu Hao thought of this, his eyes flashed with a fine light, just now he said that he didn't know that wealth and nobility were not risky, and now he put such a big wealth in front of him, isn't this a naked temptation?
To break or not to break in? Wu Hao hesitated for less than a tenth of a second, and then directly set off and walked towards the three small doors. Because of the map guidance, Wu Hao was not afraid of getting lost, so he decided to walk around door by door. The scene of the Yongdao that came out just now made him not come out of the shadow in his heart, so this time he had to take a look at the situation in the middle door first.
After entering the door, he slowly groped his way along the corridor. When I came to a bend, I suddenly heard what seemed to be movement ahead. Cautiously looked at the corner of the wall, with a "whew", a gust of evil wind hit his face, and before he could see what it was, Wu Hao hurriedly locked his head and jumped back.
When he landed, he realized that it was a human-headed skeleton flying from the corner just now. I glanced at the map again and confirmed that there were no red dots nearby, so what was the matter with this skull? I was wondering in my heart, when I heard the sound of clicking and clacking approaching, as if someone was walking on the ground in metal heavy boots.
Wu Hao hurriedly retreated backwards, hiding in the dark between the two night pearls to observe carefully. I saw a vaguely tall figure of about three meters walking out of the corner, the figure was clearly a human figure, but its movements were stiff and rigid. Closer, Wu Hao finally recognized that this was a humanoid puppet, no wonder the map didn't show it.
The puppet is a weapon forged by the precision casters of this world, it can be in the form of a human, or in the form of a beast, different forms have different abilities, and high-level humanoid puppets can even send out an energy attack similar to martial arts through the energy crystals in the body.
Through Wu Hao's observation, this is a high-level puppet made of black edge stone, its body is hard, it can resist the attack of human-level blades, and it should also be able to send out metallic energy attacks. With Wu Hao's current ability, he may not be able to defeat it, but he plans to give it a try. His human-level mid-grade sword should not be useful, so he took out the Staff of Judgment that was equipped in the game.
As soon as Wu Hao took out his weapon here, the humanoid puppet over there also discovered him at the same time, and a red light suddenly flashed in the puppet's eyes, and he turned around and rushed towards Wu Hao. Although the puppet's body was stiff and its movements were rigid, its speed was not slow at all, and in the blink of an eye, the puppet that came to Wu Hao's side raised its right arm and swept towards Wu Hao. Wu Hao planned to try the puppet's power first, and he didn't dodge, he ruled his hand horizontally, and took the puppet's blow hard.
Wu Hao's basic combat power is unique among human martial artists, and he consciously does not let the upper and intermediate martial artists be far behind, but under the attack of this humanoid puppet, he was defeated in one move.
