"Master, is this ......?"

Looking at the passage that suddenly opened in front of her, Liz subconsciously approached Rieg and asked timidly.

Li Ge's brows were still furrowed, and he looked at the passage for a while before replying thoughtfully.

"This is supposed to be the passage to the tomb, right?"

Hearing this, Liz couldn't help but be stunned.

"Burial chamber?"

As if thinking of something, Liz looked at the stele.

"Did you think of it?" Seeing this, Li Ge nodded and said, "It is the tomb of the queen mentioned on the stone tablet." ”

The ancient inscription on the stele already states that the last queen of the ancient magical civilization was buried here.

That being the case, this hidden passage is most likely the one used to lead to the queen's tomb.

"Queen's ......"

Knowing this, Liz's eyes became complicated.

No way, according to the current information, this last queen of the ancient magical civilization is obviously the queen holding the sword of Moslow on the mural.

Since the opponent is holding the sword of Moslow, it proves that the opponent is a member of the hero clan.

In other words, it is very likely that the other party is Liz's ancestor, and it may even be an ancestor of her very distant era.

"I—Shall we go in?"

Liz became nervous.

Who would have thought, but Rig shook his head.

"No, let's not go over there yet."

Why?

The reason is simple.

"The Queen's burial chamber, we can go at any time."

"But the people who entered here before us, if we don't chase them now, we may not be able to catch up later."

"So, let's go over there first."

Rieger pointed to the rightmost corner of the Stone Hall.

There, too, there was a passage.

No, not only is there a passage in the rightmost corner of the Stone Hall, but there is also a passage in the leftmost corner of the Stone Hall.

Originally, there were only these two passages in this stone hall, and the one behind the statue was hidden and no one found it.

According to the memory of the magic puppet, the cold girl and Sgranto walked through the passage on the far right.

As for the passage on the far left, they seemed to have sent someone to explore it, and there was only one stone platform in it, and there was only one groove in the stone platform, and nothing else.

That's right, the groove that Yuri told Rig about when she was at Franzel's house fits into the blade of Moslow's sword.

It is because of the existence of this groove that people who know something about this ruin, including Yuri, will think that this place is related to the Sword of Moslow.

That's why Rigg and Liz came all the way.

But now, the matter of that groove has been postponed for the time being.

Anyway, the sword of Moslow is in Liz's hand, and she can go there at any time.

Rather, it's the passage on the far right, where it leads and what's inside, even the magic puppet doesn't know.

The puppets wanted to go inside and investigate, and as far as they could remember, Sgrantto had stopped them with unusually harsh force before they could act.

At that time, Sgranto's performance was completely full of jealousy, caution and even fear.

So, Rieger boldly speculated.

"The thing that really makes Sgranto and the top brass of the two great powers taboo is probably at the end of that passage."

And the goal of the people behind these magic puppets may also have something to do with that.

So, Rieger wanted to go over and find out.

"Why don't you, Liz, go over to the tomb first?"

Rig proposed to the little princess.

"Nope! I'm with the host! ”

When the little princess heard this, she didn't think about it, and shook her head into a rattle.

"Okay."

When Li Ge thought about it carefully, he also felt that it was inappropriate.

Who knows if there is danger in the tomb?

A passage that is not hidden is hidden in a great terror that makes a sword master and two great powers taboo, who knows if there is anything more terrifying in this deliberately hidden passage?

Although there is the sword of Moslow, Liz also has a great relationship with the queen sleeping in the tomb at the end of this passage, so it stands to reason that nothing will happen, but she is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, let the little princess go to the tomb by herself, it is indeed a bit too difficult for her.

"In that case, you come with me." Rieger said, "Let's sneak over and see what those guys are up to." ”

"Okay, okay!"

Liz naturally has no opinion.

At that moment, led by Rig, Liz followed behind her master and entered the passage in the rightmost corner of the stone hall.

It was very hot in the passage, and it was very hot in the passage, and it was told to Rig and Liz that the reason why it was so hot here was probably the source at the end of the passage.

The passage is not without dangers, but those dangers have been stepped on.

Upon entering the passage, Rig saw potholes and shattered stones and iron, and immediately realized that Sgrantto's party had stepped on the magic traps and traps placed here beforehand, and even eliminated the guards guarding the passage.

The shattered stones and iron gave Rig a sense of déjà vu guarded by the self-disciplined giants who guarded the ancient city in the body of the underground demonic beast Yarakulon.

Rige felt that there were guards like that in this passage, but they were only solved by Sgrantto's party.

"It's okay, it saves me a lot of effort."

Li Ge simply picked up the little princess, and under the little princess's panicked and blushing expression, he used flying magic to fly forward, and at the same time activated invisibility and other magic to hide his existence.

In the sweltering passage, a streamer soon appeared, flying by like a meteor, and swept straight to the end.

…………

Before he knew it, Rig had been flying for almost half an hour.

"Haven't you arrived yet?"

Looking at the passage that still has no end in sight, Rig is not only speechless.

The length of the passage is far beyond Rige's imagination, and at some point it no longer just stretches forward, but has a downward slope.

In other words, as Rieg goes deeper and deeper, he is gradually entering the bottomless underground.

And the deeper you go underground, the higher the temperature becomes.

"At the end of this passage, it can't be the magma layer underground, right?"

Rieger couldn't help but start thinking about it.

Sadly, he seems to be right.

Because, he already smelled a burnt smell, a smell like sulfuric acid.

In front of the passage, the air began to distort, and the hot air seemed to form a substance, surging in the closed passage.

By the time Rig felt his vision turn red, he finally saw the end.

Or rather, he saw red magma.

“————”

Without any hesitation, Rieg braked sharply and stopped his flying figure.

He could feel that Liz in his arms was clutching his clothes tightly, as if she was getting more and more nervous.

Li Ge didn't care about the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, continued to hold Liz, and flew to the end of the passage lightly.

The next moment, Rig did enter a crimson world.

This is a vast space that is hundreds of times larger than the stone hall just now.

The space is so large that it can fit even half a town.

But in such a spacious space, there is a world that the living are not allowed to enter.

Because, although this place is very similar to a stalactite cave somewhere, there is a flowing magma underfoot.

The astonishing heat climbed from the bottom to the top, turning the entire space red.

"Sure enough, it's underground magma."

Rig sighed, finally solving the riddle of how hot it was.

Suddenly, Rieg felt Lizzy in his arms tremble, and he actually started to tremble.

She was in shock.

She's afraid.

She seemed to almost scream, but she covered her mouth in time.

"Liz?"

Rig was stunned for a moment, then seemed to sense something, and turned his head to look at one of the locations below where the magma flowed.

There, there is a rock formation that has not been submerged by magma.

The rock formation resembles a huge execution table, and in the center is a golden pillar.

The golden pillar was carved with runes, and Rig immediately reminded him of the temple in the ancient city that the Maya guarded.

When the barrier of that temple was lifted, the runes that flew out of it, and the runes on this golden pillar, were exactly the same thing.

Of course, that's not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that under this rune golden pillar, there is actually a behemoth pressed.

When the behemoth came into view, even Li Ge and Tong Kong couldn't help but shrink.

Because, that creature, to him and to anyone, was not alien.

A monstrous beast-like body.

Broad, fleshy wings shaped like bat wings.

The head resembles a horse and a crocodile, with horns and scales, a long, sinuous tail with spines at the end, and the limbs end in huge claws and dorsal spines.

That's ——— "dragon".

A red dragon.

A monstrous fiery dragon.

It was crushed by the huge golden pillars of runes on the execution platform-like rock formation, and occasionally lava flowed around it, overflowing its fleshy wings that stretched out of the platform, but instead of burning it out, it seemed like warm water washing its limbs, and it supplanted softly.

With its eyes closed, it looked like a dead thing, but the loud nasal sound that only comes from napping and the hot tongue of fire that erupts from its nostrils when it breathes tell everyone who sees it......... It's alive.

It's a living dragon!

It was a living dragon!

The terrifying and ancient dragon power naturally emanated from it, terrifying Liz and causing Lige to freeze there on the spot.

In this moment, Rig finally understood what Sgranto and the two great powers were afraid of.

It was this dragon that they were afraid of!

At the same time, the words on the stele also came to Lige's mind.

"We will bury it here with the scroll of the King of Calamity." ”

It's not just the queen of the heroic clan buried here, but also the scroll of the Calamity King.
