Chapter Ninety-Three: The Death Inscription (3)
Su Ming naturally followed directly.
The masked man took two steps and stopped when he came to the wall.
Su Ming looked at him, and then at the wooden wall that didn't look like some kind of secret door, and didn't know what he wanted to do.
However, the masked man slowly took out a card from his arms, which was the [Death Inscription] that had been thrown to them earlier, but this card had a pattern on the front.
Su Ming glanced at it quickly, if he was not mistaken, the pattern on this card seemed to be a door?
Then, the masked man gently pressed the leather card against the wall, and the card squirmed strangely and expanded, and in the blink of an eye, a decent wooden door appeared in front of the two of them.
"Crunch ......"
The masked man reached out and pushed the wooden door open a crack, and a strange smell immediately rushed out.
It was difficult for Su Ming to describe this smell alone, because it seemed to be a strange smell caused by the overlapping of the smell of many things after decay and decay.
"Let's go, let you see my treasure trove......"
The masked man opened the wooden door, but did not enter, but blocked his view with his body, signaling Su Ming to go in first, as if he didn't want other players to see the scene inside the wooden door.
Su Ming naturally understood what the other party meant, looked back at the other players and stepped directly into the wooden door.
Who knew that after coming in, the strange taste was even stronger, and he couldn't open his eyes when he was spicy, not only tears welled up, but what was even more terrifying was that he began to lose blood!
This surprised Su Ming, could it be that this smell was so bad that it was judged by the system to be poisonous gas?
He quickly glanced at the panel, which actually showed a negative state called "Decay", which was causing him to continue to deduct health, dropping 1% every five seconds, and the rate was barely acceptable.
In the compound strange smell, he smelled ingredients including rotten wood, rotten fishing nets, rust, and even rotting meat, which made him wonder if it was a treasure trove or one of the kind of garbage bins that had not been treated for years.
He squinted his eyes into the space with difficulty, trying to find the treasure trove in the mask's mouth, and then he saw a bookshelf-like thing hanging on the opposite wall, but instead of books, cards pasted on the wall.
The format of the cards was the same as what he had seen before, and they were all leather cards called "Death Inscriptions", but the patterns were different, and the items representing the inscriptions were also different.
Boom.
The wooden door closed softly behind him, and apparently the masked man had entered.
Su Ming covered his mouth and nose and said with difficulty: "Did you deliberately hide the baby in the garbage heap......
"Hehe......"
Hearing this, the masked man just smiled faintly, "You treasure hunters, you are still so short-sighted, you will only see decayed things as garbage, but you don't know that after the items are carved in this way, they can show their full potential......"
"Okay, let me see your baby, don't delay too long......"
Even if he covered his mouth and nose, Su Ming didn't really want to open his mouth in this kind of place, although it was just a game, he would still have the disgusting feeling of eating countless foul-smelling objects.
At this moment, the masked man actually showed a profiteer's tone, "Isn't it right in front of you, see for yourself, but keep in mind that our verbal agreement is limited to 'seeing', so you can't touch it unless you choose something to take away." ”
Can't touch it? So what do I think of the information?
Su Ming was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the other party to play such a childish word game with him.
He didn't respond for a moment, but silently stepped forward and began to quickly browse the cards posted on the wall.
In a scene like this, the player will not pop up a message if he can't touch it, and he can't put it in the inventory without being wrapped in bubbles, so he can only simply judge the value of these so-called treasures by the appearance on the card.
There are twenty cards in total, placed on a four-by-five-sized wooden shelf, each with a different pattern, ranging from rusty swords to withered and withered unknown flowers, as well as rotting animal carcasses of unknown unknown species......
In addition to this kind of standard item image, there is also a pattern that is a bit abstract, just looking at the pattern Su Ming is not even sure what is engraved on the card, for example, the pattern on one card is a strange item that can't tell whether it is a rag or a curtain.
How do you feel like garbage...... Without seeing the information at all, Su Ming didn't know which one to choose, mainly because these patterns were all items or creatures that appeared after decay and death, and he couldn't intuitively judge whether the item or creature was powerful "before death" from the patterns.
He didn't have much time to hesitate as the negative status of blood loss continued to take effect, but out of caution, he tentatively asked casually:
"Are you sure that's all the treasures of your treasure trove? I don't think I've got anything good in my possession......"
Hearing this, the masked man still smiled unhurriedly, as if he had already guessed that Su Ming would ask this: "It's basically hanging on the wall, I only said to let you see the treasure house, but I didn't say let you see all the treasures, that's all, you can choose one yourself, hehe......"
The strange smell here didn't seem to have a negative effect on the masked man at all, but he seemed very comfortable at the moment, and even his voice was much more natural.
"Huh...... Play word games with me, huh? ”
Unexpectedly, a casual temptation was really rewarding, and Su Ming no longer looked at the things on the shelf, but turned his head directly and smiled at the masked man, "Since you played tricks first, then don't blame me." ”
"What do you want, do you want to break the agreement between us......"
At this time, the masked man's eyes turned cold again, and Su Ming immediately felt that sense of crisis again.
But this only made him more sure that there was some kind of "rule" here, and as long as the treasure hunter didn't break the rules, the masked man couldn't do anything to them directly.
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......" Regarding the masked man's threatening attitude, Su Ming smiled in return, and said in a subtle tone: "The agreement between us did just say that it was just for me to 'see' your treasure trove and choose any one more, without saying that I was allowed to touch it, nor did it say that I would be allowed to see all the treasures......"
Then he changed his voice, and continued with a smile: "But it seems that he only said that he should not engrave 'that thing', that is, the thing I took out before that is related to the god of fate, and I didn't say that I can't engrave other things related to gods, right?" ”
Regarding Su Ming's threat, the masked man didn't care much in his eyes: "Hehe...... Do you really think you're a favored person of the god of fate? ”
Su Ming just smiled and didn't speak, and directly prepared to take out the props from the inventory.
"Don't say I didn't warn you", the masked man laughed even more disdainfully, "Some items, even if they are related to the gods, are only very faintly related, as long as the items are not from the gods themselves, even if you try to inscribe them, no matter whether they succeed or fail, they won't notice it at all......"
"Oh, that's it, it's a coincidence...... Su Ming smiled even more, and directly took out the [Hell Jokes Fragment-003], "I just have an item from another celestial god here, or is it his 'hand-completed tome'......"
The moment his gaze touched the paper in Su Ming's hand, the little smile left in the masked man's eyes completely froze.
