Chapter 603: The Strange “Red Wooden” Box
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the inspection was completed and there was no danger detected in the underground, Lin Huang and the rest entered.
They climbed down the stone staircase and soon they arrived at the underground plaza.
The area of the plaza was not small and the height of the ceilings had even exceeded 30 meters.
There were coffins that they saw from the scenes projected by Bloody and the coffins were arranged accordingly. The length of each of the coffins was about three meters and it was at least 1.5 meters wide. The distance between each coffin was about three meters.
The base of the coffin was made of wood and they were still in good condition right until now. The coffin cover was transparent and they could clearly see the skeleton in the coffin.
“It seems like they were chopped off by the waist.” After observing few of the coffins, Yi Yeyu said.
The rest of them did notice that as well.
The scene that he saw when he was looking at the sword marks appeared again. A young man in white rope cut the entire palace in half. Everyone in the palace, regardless of whether they were right under the sword or not, they were all cut in half…
“That’s not important. Quickly leave after getting what we want.” Lin Huang could vaguely feel that the skeletons have something to do with the scene that he saw in his mind.
Few of them flew past the coffins and arrived at the first treasure room situated on the left.
The area of the room was at least 10,000 square meters. There was a variety of relics, crystals, and other items. They occupied almost two-thirds of the room.
Lin Huang and the rest were going to make large sums of money as the number of relics alone was more than 10,000. The crystals of various colors could definitely fetch a good price as well.
“How could it be? There are so many of the God Crashers over here?!” Li Lang was standing on top of the treasure and suddenly, he discovered a cannon barrel. He immediately pulled it out.
Yi Zheng and Yi Yeyu went over to help him out.
A smile that could hardly be seen was plastered on Yi Zheng’s face as he checked it. He did not have a poker face. After entering the ruins, he was always nervous and that was the reason why he rarely smiled.
“It’s a third generation God Crasher that’s still in a good condition. It looks like it has never been used before. It’s precious!” Yi Zheng liked the God Crasher a lot.
Yi Yeyu wanted to take it from Li Lang but he did not want to let it go.
“Hey hey! I was the one who found the cannon. Could you please be reasonable?”
“Do you know how to use it?” Yi Yeyu rolled her eyes at Li Lang.
“I don’t know how to use but I can keep it with me.” Li Lang was not happy about it.
“Go away, don’t spoil it!” Yi Yeyu said.
“Let’s talk about this later when we get out of this place. I’ll keep it with me first.”
After a few moments, Lin Huang stored all the items in the room into his storage ring.
Yi Yeyu took the God Crasher from Li Lang as well and stored it in her storage ring.
After clearing the first room, they immediately headed towards the second room.
In the second treasure room, the number of treasures was rather similar to that in the first room.
They then proceeded to the third treasure room after searching through the second room.
Just as Lin Huang and the rest entered the third room, at the end of the underground plaza, the blood mist suddenly spread through the gap on the “red wooden” box.
At almost the same time, Bloody’s leech pod exploded on its own.
Bloody noticed the problem and immediately contacted Lin Huang, “One of my leech pods have been destroyed. I don’t know how it is destroyed but there might be something hidden underground. I didn’t discover anything as I investigated previously. That being said, it might be able to get rid of the investigation of my leech pods.”
As Bloody reminded, Lin Huang frowned.
Bloody was now an immortal-level rank-1. The unknown that could secretly destroy Bloody’s leech pods, it must be something stronger than Bloody.
After collecting all the treasures in the room, Lin Huang immediately asked the rest to retreat, “Quickly leave!”
The rest were stunned but still, they followed after Lin Huang and rushed towards the underground entrance as they left the room.
“Isn’t it there’s another treasure room?” Li Lang asked when they left.
“We can’t make it. There’s an unknown monster hiding underground which has just destroyed Bloody’s investigating pods.” Lin Huang explained as they escaped.
Their face turned grave and headed towards the underground entrance at full speed.
At the end of the underground plaza, the blood mist released through the red wooden box became thicker. On the surface of the red wooden box, the black intricate pattern started turning into a golden color which resembled a little golden snake wriggling on the surface of the box. The red wooden box was vibrating vigorously as if it was suppressing something at full force.
As the vibration became stronger, the gap between the box became bigger as well. Eventually, a red glow erupted and flashed through the sky, creating a single arm.
After a few moments, a bloody mist spread out from the arm, gradually forming a humanoid creature which was in the mist form. Even the arm itself was shrouded in mist.
The creature that was entirely covered by the blood mist was three of the carrions that they fought in mid-air at the site where they were hiding.
At the back of the misty monster, the red wooden box was completely activated, and golden chains extended from it. The limbs and the neck of the misty monster were instantly locked in it and were being drawn backward.
As it was pulled by an immense strength, the misty monster was slowly falling down. However, it looked at Lin Huang and the rest that had reached the underground entrance at a distance of about 10,000 meters.
“Roar!”
It let out a furious roar and at the next second, its body had completely turned into bloody mist and diffused into the red wooden box. On the red wooden box, the golden pattern gradually faded and ultimately, turning into the black pattern it originally had. The underground plaza became quiet again.
When they reached the underground entrance, the monster roar that sounded very much like the rumbling of thunder was heard. They were frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.
As soon as Lancelot that was at the end of the line entered, Lin Huang who was standing next to the stone tower immediately turned the stone tower back and the underground entrance was closed.
“The growl was terrifying. What’s that?” Li Lang had goosebumps when he heard that.
“It’s not the right place to talk. Let’s go!” It was apparent that Lin Huang did not want to stay there any longer. He immediately summoned the Dimensional Portal and the few of them who were there, entered.
