Chapter Eighty-Eight: Murderous Intent
! As soon as Lumian saw Monit, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
It's both anger and fear, and it's almost a stress response.
Why is it him again?
How did he appear underground and appear in front of me at a critical moment?
What exactly does he want to do?
How is it like the bed bugs in the Golden Rooster Hotel, the cockroaches in the garbage heap, and the rats in underground Trier, which can be seen everywhere and cannot be avoided?
"You are?" At this time, "Hela" asked coldly.
Her calm and deadly attitude quickly softened Lumian's emotions, and his mind raced to analyze the purpose of the archipelago liar Monit and the "different" cabaret behind him.
Monette pinched the monocle in the socket of his right eye and replied with a smile, "Just like you, Tomb Adventurer."
Tomb Adventurer...... The Lady of Justice, who put the grave robbers so openly...... said that the higher the sequence, the more dangerous it is to enter the catacombs...... Therefore, here, the angel of Monit's faith could not provide him with any help, and the divine saints in the "different" cabaret did not dare to come...... In other words, there is a good chance that I will join forces with Ms. "Hela" to keep Monette here forever, so that he will no longer be able to haunt around like a cockroach! Lumian looked at Monette and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The fear in his heart had receded a lot, and the dangerous idea of taking advantage of this opportunity to kill the liar in front of him had rapidly increased.
Lumian laughed, looked at Monit and said, "Tomb adventurer? Do you know anything about this place?"
Monit said with a smile: "
"Of course."
He raised his right hand and pointed to an ancient burial chamber on the edge of the candlelight:
"It belonged to someone from the Quaternary Zoroaster family."
Immediately afterward, Monit pointed to several nearby burial chambers:
"That's from someone in Jacob's house, it's from someone in Abraham's family, it's from a member of the Scarlet Legion....
"It's a pity that none of the extraordinary properties remain."
Seeing that this archipelago liar really answered his question, Lumian was a little surprised for a moment, and became more and more puzzled about the other party's purpose.
He tentatively pointed to the ancient burial chamber behind Monit, where he had climbed out:
"Whose burial chamber is that?"
Monit took a few steps forward, and when he saw Lumian's eyes suddenly become dangerous, he stopped, and said with a smile:
"It's a member of the Quaternary Amun family."
This liar knows a lot of big families in the Fourth Age, and he also knows a lot about the situation of the fourth layer of tombs, which is much more detailed than what is written on the street signs...... In Lumian's consternation, "Hela" spoke again:
"Do you know where the Samaritan Women's Fountain is?"
Monette rubbed the outer edge of the monocle, hooked the corners of her mouth and said:
"Why should I tell you?
"What kind of pay can you give?"
"Why should we believe that you hold the exact location of the Samaritan Woman's Spring?" Lumian asked reflexively.
He suspects that Monette is going to start habitual scams again.
Monette chuckled:
"I really didn't know, and the name 'Samaritan Woman's Spring' wasn't very good, like it came from an ancient book I had read before.
"However, after coming to this level more times, I found some strange phenomena, some accidentally activated bones will automatically gather in this area, walk into a certain tomb, and never come out."
The undead created by the environment will be affected by the anomaly of this layer of the tomb and will actively approach? Or is it the "Samaritan Woman's Spring"? To the west, there is an ancient burial chamber with the same conditions...... Lumi was relieved and even more vigilant.
The archipelago swindler Monette took the initiative to reveal such important information without receiving any compensation?
This is completely out of his character!
When things seem abnormal, there must be problems!
Lumian suspects that the other party is either using this information to trick himself and "Hela" into going to the ancient tomb where the undead gather, actively approaching the source of the anomaly and killing himself, or using the two of them to help him explore the way.
There is a certain possibility in both cases, although the former does not do Monette any good, but some people will be very happy to see others suffer and suffer.
"That's all I know." Monette pinched the monocle in the socket of her right eye again, and said with a smile, "I've gone to other burial chambers, and if you can find the so-called 'Samaritan Woman's Spring', remember to leave me a note in the tomb of this Amun family member, telling me what is so strange about it." ”
He said as he walked over to Lumian.
In Lumian's tense state of attack, the archipelago crook passed him, took a lit white candle, and walked towards the tomb in the distance.
28
Soon, his figure disappeared at the fork in the road, and darkness reigned over the place.
Really gone? Lumian watched for surprise as he watched Telmibolos' reaction.
The angel of fate remained silent, not alerted by Monit's reappearance.
"Hela" took a few steps back to an ancient burial chamber next to it, and opened the crumbling stone door.
Faced with the miserable white bones scattered at the entrance of the tomb, "Hela" lifted her right palm upward.
The bones seemed to be pulled by invisible silk threads, quickly gathered together, and turned into rickety humanoid skeletons with a creak.
"Hela" didn't give any orders to the undead she had evoked, and watched coldly as it slowly left the chamber and headed for the depths of darkness, as if something was calling it.
Is Lady "Hela" the "corpse collector" pathway, or does she have a corresponding magical item? Lumian probably understood Hela's idea, and she planned to use the undead's ability to automatically approach the ancient tomb in question and let it lead the way.
And in this area, the most likely anomaly is the "Samaritan Woman's Spring"!
Holding flaming white candles, the two men followed behind the humanoid skeleton as they walked between the westernmost burial chambers.
Suddenly, another figure emerged from the darkness around the corner with a candle flame.
He had a monocle made of crystal in the socket of his right eye, and a smile of unknown meaning on his face.
It's that archipelago liar Monette again!
While Lumien was taken aback again, Monette asked with a smile, "
"Is that 'Samaritan Woman's Fountain' interesting? Can I go with you?"
Why didn't you just ask? A strong killing intent surged from Lu Mi's bottom of the heart.
He said quietly:
"We haven't found it yet, so how do we know if it's interesting?7
"Why don't you hide in the shadows and wait until we're done exploring, to see if there are any dangers or traps, and then try to enter? The risk would be much lower, and even if we succeeded, we wouldn't be able to take all of the Samaritan Woman's Spring. ”
Monette pressed the back of his right index finger against the monocle and nodded approvingly:
"You have a point."
The liar smiled and retreated into the darkness around the corner.
The candle flame flew away until it was gone.
So simple to be persuaded away? Lumian's mind collided with sparks, and he still couldn't figure out what the archipelago liar Monette wanted to do and what his purpose was.
He glanced sideways at "Hela" and found that the other party had drunk the liquor again, but his face did not even show a hint of ruddy, but showed a little blue.
The lady was more like a corpse.
"Do you know what's wrong with these people who wear monocles?" Lumien probed the question.
"Hela" put the finished military flask back in the pouch, and replied in a cold, illusory voice as she continued to follow the humanoid skeleton:
"It has something to do with the Amun family in the Quaternary Age."
The Amun family of the Quaternary ...... The ancient burial chamber that Monette had just climbed out of belonged to a member of the Amon family...... This family controls the "Thief" path, just like Franka said that the Witch family controls the "Assassin" path? Seeing that "Hela" was reluctant to say more, Lumian had to follow in silence.
Monit's presence makes him have no idea of softening his temper with nagging.
As they walked, the candle flame in Lumien and Hela's hands shook noticeably, dyed a little shade of shaded green.
The "resurrected" skeleton then moved into a large decaying burial chamber with a stone door ajar.
Lumian perked up and felt that the "Samaritan Woman's Spring" was ahead.
At this moment, another figure poked its head out from the side of the tomb.
Under the yellowish candlelight, the crystal monocle shimmered with a strange hue.
Or that archipelago liar Monit!
He smiled and asked:
"Do you have any words to leave to your relatives and friends? I can relay it for you. ”
Frightened again, Lumian almost couldn't hold back the killing intent in his heart.
There's no better place to deal with Monit!
"Nope." "Hela" responded coldly, not choosing to do anything.
Lumian exhaled slowly:
"Neither do I."
"What a pity." With a disappointed expression, Monette turned back into the dark tunnel on the side of the tomb.
The yellowish flame leaked a little, swaying slightly, indicating that he was not far away, and was waiting nearby.
Lumian couldn't help but look at "Hela" and gestured with his right hand to cut his throat.
He's asking if he wants to get rid of that archipelago crook ahead of time?
"Hela" was silent for a few seconds, shook her head slightly, and said:
"We'll get the Samaritan Woman's Fountain and get out of here immediately."
What she means is to focus on the purpose and not to make any further trouble.
Well, as soon as the spring water was loaded, I teleported away with Ms. Hela...... Lumian agreed, and replaced the candle with Hela.
After a few moments, the skeleton still did not come out, and the two of them cautiously entered the huge burial chamber through the half-open stone door.
At this moment, a hoarse and old voice came from the depths of the tomb:
"Stop!"
On the edge of the yellowish candle flame, a figure staggered out.
