Chapter 336 [0333] First Glimpse

Skarash's footsteps were as slow as ever. He could not hear Kalya's words, nor could he understand Kalya's story.

But Lux and Ino could feel the complexity of Kalya's emotions at this time.

For this old man's feelings, Lux might not be able to fully understand, but the deep friendship between Kalya and Horok made Lux subconsciously hold Ino tightly.

Although Kalya's tone was light and indifferent when he talked about his funeral, when he thought that the final result was that he sent Setaka away and buried Nezuk, Lux and Ino couldn't help but feel a sense of "cherishing the people in front of them".

Along the Desolate Hills Mountains, Skarash was approaching the col where Horok was sleeping little by little.

Kalya gradually fell into silence and never spoke again.

……………………

On the other side, in the nameless col, the prospecting workers, led by their own captain of the rock elemental mage, finally broke through the basalt that sealed the tomb of the God of the Desolate Hill.

Behind the heavy basalt, there was an obviously man-made tunnel!

After receiving this news, everyone in the camp took action. Trap experts, folklore experts, lock picking experts, etc., all swarmed to the entrance of the tunnel and looked carefully into the depths of the tunnel.

Sylvie led the ignorant prospecting workers and walked in front without any worries.

Then, in Iris's surprised eyes, they passed through this tunnel that seemed to be full of dangers very smoothly.

After confirming safety, everyone rushed into the tunnel again, gathered at the end of the tunnel, and then looked at each other in front of a wall and a door with torches and oil lamps.

At Cassiopeia's urging, experts from all walks of life took turns to try to find a way to open the door from the details.

However, what they found hard to accept was that the door was made of a natural stone slab, and it was smooth without any trace of human processing at all - if the locksmith wanted to open the lock, he at least had to have a lock; if the folklore expert wanted to study, he at least had something to study.

With such a door with nothing on it, even the most professional experts could only scratch their heads.

Things got awkward here.

Cassiopeia thought she was well prepared, but when the time came, she found that this tomb of the gods in the barren hills did not follow the routine at all - not to mention Cassiopeia, who was doing this for the first time, even Sivir, who was used to this business, was confused.

After hesitating for a moment, Sivir cut her palm and smeared her blood on the stone door.

There was no reaction, as if the method of opening this door had nothing to do with blood.

When everyone was at a loss, Cassiopeia could only find the rock elemental mage of the mining team to see if she could try brute force.

The rock elemental mage, who didn't want to fail at this point, gritted his teeth and tried all the methods he knew.

But what made him unbelievable was that this ordinary-looking stone door was actually made of very pure rock elements, and this level of rock elements was completely beyond his understanding!

In desperation, the mining team could only use the remaining black gunpowder to carry out a blast.

After a loud bang, a lot of rubble was shaken off the roof of the corridor, but this door and this wall remained motionless and unscathed.

At this moment, everyone was finally completely dumbfounded - the most difficult questions in this world are never the ones you can't answer, but the ones you can't understand at all!

Time passed by, and the people around the door became more and more impatient. Sivir looked at the wound on her palm and the blood stain on the door that seemed to laugh at her innocence, and subconsciously raised the Charikar.

Then, when the cross blade passed through the door, the heavy door suddenly opened as if it had received an order.

Seeing this scene, Sivir was delighted!

"Eight points of the reward for these rubbish will be on me."

She glanced at the experts who were full of disbelief, raised her head proudly, and strode into the door.

Behind her, after being stunned for a moment, the others followed Sivir's steps and entered the interior of the Desolate Hill God's Tomb.

The next moment, when they squinted their eyes, prepared to be blinded by the gold, and took out the luminous stone to carefully illuminate, the ordinary tomb in front of them made them all notice something wrong.

Without the various internal structures commonly seen in Shurima tombs, without piles of burial objects, and without gold foil covering the entire tomb, this place looks ordinary, as if it is really just an ordinary room.

The trap expert took out professional tools and carefully explored everything in the entire tomb, but he did not find any traps. He lit the torch directly in disappointment. Under the flickering flames, everyone finally saw the situation inside the tomb.

This is a room that is 100 feet square and about 50 feet high. At first glance, it seems that there is nothing precious at all. The only thing that may attract attention is a small platform in the center of the room that looks like a bed.

Around this small platform, there are many completed or unfinished statues scattered around. The folklore expert in the team came forward, put on gloves, picked up a statue and looked at it carefully for a long time, but he dared not come to a conclusion.

"This is very much like the image of the God of Death." After pondering for a long time, he finally said, "It has a carved head and two wings, wearing a large cloak and holding a scepter... But as far as I know, the statue of the God of Death cannot have a carved face. The God of Death on the statue looks very handsome, which is very strange.”

As he spoke, he put down the statue and picked up another one.

"This one looks a bit like the Ascended Martial Queen." After looking at it for a long time, his tone was full of hesitation, "But why is this Ascended Martial Queen smiling? Let alone a tomb sculpture, even if it is the Ascended Martial Queen on the Wall of Thousand Gods They are all extremely serious.”

"Perhaps this tomb is too old. Are the customs at that time different from our current understanding?" He looked at the third statue, "There is also a tiger-shaped sculpture. Oh my God, this is It has never been discovered before, let me see - it is unbelievable that in the same group of sculptures, its size is actually larger than the sculpture of the God of Death and the sculpture of the Ascendant Empress. This... this is completely contrary to common sense!"

At the beginning, everyone listened patiently to him describing the mystery behind it, hoping to find some useful information. However, they saw that this guy said "unreasonable" to the left and "unreasonable" to the right, but it was not useful at all. There was no information, and everyone eventually lost interest in these strange statues.

Compared with these strange statues, it was the black platform carrying the statues that attracted everyone more interest - especially when Cassiopeia carefully touched it with a cane, and it emitted a celestial sound. After the loud voice.

Listening to the "click" sound it made when it was hit by the cane, everyone had a premonition.

I'm afraid the real treasure of this tomb is hidden in this hollow platform!

Kalya’s Little Classroom·Shurima’s Funeral Customs:

Before the Battle of Icathia, the Shurima Empire had always respected thin burials and frugal burials. After the Battle of Icathia, with the de facto revival of slavery, the custom of thick burials also gradually emerged.
