Chapter 1385 Pathfinding
"Why do you think so?" I asked confused.
Lylea pointed to that point and recalled: "There was once an unknown organization that had a conflict with my organization during the mission. After it was eliminated, my people searched for similar maps from their stronghold. , we followed the signs above and searched one by one, and finally found that the locations marked by the raised marks marked with circles were all underground tombs."
I thought for a moment and asked, "So, you went in?"
Lilea nodded: "There are three underground tombs marked on that map. The search for the first two was very difficult, but the harvest was quite fruitful."
"What about the third place?" I asked, "Didn't you send anyone there again?"
"Sent," Lillea said.
"How was the harvest?" I asked.
"Gain?" She thought for a moment and continued: "Gained a fiancé."
"Huh?" I was startled, then understood.
I understand, the third tomb is the one she tricked me into going to together.
There was nothing gained that time except seeing the resurrection of Achilles.
I held my chin and thought, and after a moment I said, "The last expedition to the mausoleum was really dangerous, and you killed a lot of your men there. I think it's better not to go to this place."
"Why don't you go?" Lilea asked puzzledly: "I like exploring very much, and I want to know what treasures are hidden in this tomb."
"Treasure." I was a little helpless: "If you are really so obsessed with treasures, we can go to the auction house and take pictures of whatever you like. This is so simple and convenient, and it also has safety guarantees."
"The treasures you dig out by yourself and the treasures you buy at the auction house have different feelings after buying them," Lillea said: "It's just like cooking for yourself and eating at a restaurant. Even if it tastes the same, it can taste different." Taste the different feelings.”
Reasoning with a woman is the most unwise choice. Besides, she is a sharp-tongued, smart and cunning woman.
So, I compromised.
But there is a request. I can go down to the mausoleum, but only I can go there. No one else is allowed to go, but they can watch and guard around the mausoleum.
This decision was rejected by several girls at the same time. They said that they could not let me go down alone. It was too dangerous.
But their refusal was rejected by me for the same reason: It is more dangerous for you to go than for me to go by myself, and you are not strong enough now. Once you enter the mausoleum, once the mechanism is triggered, I am afraid it will be too late to save you. If I go by myself, once If I encounter any special mechanism, at least I still have the ability to protect myself. Even if my body is damaged or destroyed due to the mechanism, I can rely on my strong self-healing ability to repair myself. At the very least, my life is guaranteed.
After that, the girls dismissed my reasons with various reasons and tried to find opportunities to go with me.
But in the end, their efforts were in vain.
There is no way I would let my fiancées take this risk, even the strongest Emily.
Again, unless you have the same self-healing ability and poison immunity as I do, no need to talk about it!
This matter is scheduled to be carried out the day after tomorrow. As for tomorrow, everyone should have fun while I prepare the necessities.
After spending a whole day shopping, I finally gathered the necessities for going to the tomb, including compressed food, candies, magic items that can create water, and magic items that can create oxygen. These are all necessities for survival.
As for the others, that is, various tools, and my Odachi.
Tools are mainly used for digging and exploring paths, while the Odachi is used to open up caves when trapped.
The Odachi once said that with its sharpness and my fighting skills, there is almost nothing that cannot be split.
So I thought, if I was trapped in a mausoleum and had no way out, I would use it to create a way out. I thought that the owner of the mausoleum would probably not object to me doing this.
After a good night's sleep, when it was time to set off, we took the magic airship and headed straight to the border area of Dasay City.
Generally speaking, border areas are not allowed to enter and leave casually, but this does not apply to the prime minister of the country and his family members.
In order to ensure the safety of the prime minister, the border guards sent an elite team of the Iron Wolf Guild to escort us.
Anyway, they are one of our own, and they dare not disobey my orders. It is always a good thing to have more loyal and powerful companions, so I acquiesced.
After searching for a long time, I finally found the tomb.
This is a deserted mausoleum. Even the tombstone has become a broken stone, and the inscriptions engraved on it have long been reduced to a blur by the ravages of wind and rain.
The captain of the Iron Wolf Guild who led the team said: "Master Prime Minister, please allow me to go with you. This is for your safety."
"I appreciate your loyalty, but please allow me to be stubborn." I smiled and said, "This is my private action and I don't want anyone to get involved."
"But your life is more important than anything else," he said stubbornly.
"If you really think so, please protect my family," I said. "I hope that when I return, I can see everyone waiting here safe and sound."
The captain hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to compromise. He knelt down on one knee, put his hand on his chest, and said, "Yes, I obey."
"Then it's up to you." I helped him up, patted his shoulder with a smile, and then leaned forward and entered the underground mausoleum.
This is the bad thing about Huangling. Not only is there no light inside, but the air is also very turbid.
I walked slowly along the corner of the wall. I held the magic stone lamp in my right hand, which was not very bright but could illuminate very clearly. I clasped it lightly with my left hand and tapped the wall lightly.
A dull sound responded to me. It seemed that the walls I passed so far were not hollow.
The walls are not hollow, which means there are no secret doors or mezzanines. On the contrary, it also means there are no traps or traps.
For now, this is the best case scenario.
After walking a few dozen meters, I came across the first option.
The road in front of me was divided into two parts, both pitch black and bottomless.
Which path should I choose?
After frowning and thinking for a moment, I decided to use a prop to explore first.
From the backpack, take out two small balls half the size of a fist.
This kind of small ball is not light in weight and can emit light on its own. It is the best item for exploring paths.
Place one of them on the ground, push it forward, and the little ball rolls in. It rolls very fast. Along the way, it collides with countless stumbling stones, making a cheerful sound.
When it was more than twenty meters deep, it encountered the first corner. After hitting the wall at the corner, it turned around and bounced into the other side of the tunnel. It was still rolling like an endless ball. ball.
