Chapter Seventy-Three: The Underground Sarcophagus

Suddenly seeing this like this, several of us knew it.

There is something wrong inside the coffin, and the contents are about to come out.

I panicked and immediately waved at them.

"Hurry back, don't go near this coffin."

And as I spoke, there was a loud bang in the direction of the coffin.

Immediately after, the lid of the coffin was flicked open right in front of us.

The moment the lid of the coffin opened, a wave of heat rose from inside.

I could clearly see that the mass of flesh was surging towards the coffin at a frantic speed.

The coherent patterns on the surface of the coffin gradually became more obvious, which was clearly a red vermilion bird flying in the sky.

Immediately afterward, I heard a roar coming from inside the coffin.

I'd love to go over and see if a Suzaku will actually hatch out of it.

However, judging from the current situation, if I casually approached the coffin in front of me, I would definitely be attacked by the contents of it.

I could only take a cautious half step back and avoid touching the coffin as much as possible.

And in this instant.

The heat wave inside the coffin had been rapidly surging upward, and there was even gray-black water vapor wafting out of it.

As the steam continued to climb, slowly, the mist turned white.

"There's water down here, is it a place similar to that hot spring?"

While I was thinking and wondering.

Suddenly, the dwarf screamed violently, and then its body shook, and it took half a step back.

Immediately afterwards, the coffin shook for a while, and then, a red figure gradually appeared inside the coffin.

The moment I saw it, I froze in place.

stared incredulously at the few people beside him.

They were all stunned by the sight in front of them.

"What the hell is this? Could this be the legendary Suzaku? ”

This coffin is definitely quite deep.

Although it is said that he is about the same size as the usual coffin, it is just over two meters long and one meter wide.

However, there must be a hole underneath this coffin.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to drill such a behemoth in front of us.

At this moment, a flaming red bird came out from below, and the bird hissed at us, followed by a continuous scream at the sky.

"Is it really Suzaku?"

Several of us were stunned.

The bird was covered in fiery red feathers, and the remaining half of its body remained in the coffin, unplucked.

But just the upper body that emerges is enough to shock us.

The bird looks more like a peacock, except that all the feathers on its body are blood-red.

And in the red, there are also clusters of hidden patterns.

There are also a few long feathers hanging above the top of the head, which are also fiery red.

Suzaku has scarlet eyes and flutters its wings.

And his foot seemed to be stuck in a coffin, and there seemed to be no way to pull it out at once.

Several of us were stunned by this scene, completely overwhelmed.

If we talk about dealing with monsters underground, several of us have experience, and it's a big deal to fight with this thing, and sooner or later we will be able to pull out the skin from their bodies.

It's a big deal, and it's going to end up with this thing.

But facing the fire phoenix in front of us, we were all stunned in an instant.

How exactly should this thing be defined? Should I deal with this guy, or should I turn a blind eye?

I thought about it for a moment and slowly took a step forward.

After seeing my movements, Wang Wangyang immediately grabbed my arm and didn't let me continue walking.

"What are you doing here?"

I pointed to the edge of the coffin and explained to him.

"Don't worry, I just want to go to the coffin to see what's going on, I always feel like there's something in the coffin. I need to see why this Suzaku can't climb up from below, what is the lower half of his body stuck in? ”

You must know that this Vermilion Bird is also relatively large in the upper body, and the height of his current upper body seems to be two or three meters tall.

It is absolutely impossible for the huge body to be hidden in such a small coffin.

There must have been a deep section underneath the coffin, not as shallow as he floated on the ground.

Or rather, the entrance to the coffin is a passage, a tunnel that slowly sticks out from below and plunges into the ground.

And this Suzaku climbed up from below, and now it's just that the lower half of the body can't be completely drilled out.

After hearing my words, several of them immediately waved their hands at me and shook their heads.

"No, you can't go over. It's too dangerous up front for us to know what this thing is. ”

As he spoke, Wang Wangyang pointed to the eyes of the Vermilion Bird at me.

"And you see that this guy's pupils are obviously flashing with a cloud of killing intent, this thing is not a good thing at first glance."

As he spoke, he took a deep breath.

"And I believe that this Suzaku may have existed in ancient times, and it was still horny, but it could never be like this guy. Don't you smell it? From the moment this thing appeared, his body was all covered with the smell of blood. The smell of blood was almost overwhelmed, and I suspected that the red feathers on his body weren't some flames, guess what? ”

I narrowed my eyes and looked carefully at the firebird in front of me.

The firebird looked perfectly normal, not like anything out of the ordinary.

But I could clearly see that the fire-colored feathers on the firebird's body were clearly dyed with red dye.

"In other words, this thing is also artificially made."

Cui Hao interjected.

Wang Wangyang nodded, and his eyes suddenly took on a bit of deep meaning.

"yes, I suspect this thing may have been dyed with some special dye, and probably blood. Do you remember those ironclads just now? The flesh in their bodies, the flesh that slowly gathered from the four coffins into the sarcophagus. ”

Wang Wangyang's gaze became extremely cautious and serious.

Later, these things slowly gathered into this coffin, until such a monster was raised. I don't think it's a good auspicious thing, but I think he must have sucked some flesh and flesh to slowly grow into what he is now. ”

After speaking, Wang Wangyang took the initiative to raise the weapon on his body and came to my side.

"If you must go, then I'll go with you. However, the original goal of the two of us was to kill this thing, and we must not let him escape from below alive. ”

You must know that this is a giant bird with two or three meters in its upper body.

If he's aggressive toward us, wait until his lower body struggles out from underneath.

That means that a few of us are about to wait until we die.

Of course, I understand what Wang Wangyang means.

You can nod your head and agree with him.

"Rather than delaying time on this unknown thing, it is better for us to speed up our actions as soon as possible and kill this thing directly here, so as to prevent this thing from attacking us."

Seeing that I agreed, Wang Wangyang immediately clenched the weapon in his hand and quickly urged him to move forward.

I nodded, followed him closely, carefully holding Shang Fang's sword, and slowly approached the edge of the coffin.

It's a pity that as the two of us gradually approached, of course the dwarf guarding the edge of the coffin noticed the two of us.

He immediately turned around and grinned at the two of us, apparently forcing the two of us to back off.

I stared calmly at the dwarf as I raised the Shang Fang sword in my hand.

If I dare to fight this thing, then I'm sure he won't get out of here.

The gnomes kept grinning at me, but they never got up from the ground to attack us.

I stared at the dwarf in confusion, wondering why he was still crouching on the ground with such strong attack power.

Suddenly, my gaze froze under his knees.

That's when I realized that it wasn't like I didn't want to stand up.

Rather, the temperature of the ground around him may have been too high, and his legs had already melted.

It can be said that it was cooked.

At this time, the part of his leg was already charred, especially near the ground, and it was even more jet-black, which had obviously been burned to a carbonized state.

Vaguely.

I can still smell the wafting smell of meat.

The strange scent made my heart roll and almost spit it out.

The dwarf screamed at me, trying to get up from the ground but couldn't.

That's when I reacted.

The temperature in the air has reached more than 40 degrees, which proves that the temperature on the ground is even higher.

In fact, when a few of us just stepped on the ground, I vaguely felt the constant heat coming from under the soles of our feet.

But since we're all wearing shoes, and we're all those thick climbing boots.

So for us, the temperature of the place, although hot to the feet, is not to the extent that it burns our skin.

But you know, this dwarf is at the edge of the coffin, closest to the coffin.

All the heat here is coming from the same coffin position, and the position where we are standing has reached 40 degrees Celsius.

Not to mention the dwarf's side, the temperature must be higher.

In addition, the temperature on the ground must have been hotter, long beyond what his body could bear.

I cautiously glanced at Wang Wangyang beside me.

"What now? If we had passed, there would have been a high probability that we would have been burned like this guy? ”
