Chapter 316 319, Pyramid Maze

The four hellhounds saw that they could not defeat the enemy after a long time, and were often hit hard by Mo Fan. They became more and more frantic. One of them suddenly jumped up, opened its bloody mouth, and tried to bite Mo Fan's neck.

Mo Fan dodged to the side, and the energy of the dark sword burst out. With a swing, he cut off one of its fangs.

The other hellhound took the opportunity to pounce on Mo Fan's back. Mo Fan seemed to have expected it, and it was effortless to parry. He turned around and swept the sword across, knocking it dozens of meters away.

At this time, the battle between Zhao Manyan and others and the other two hellhounds in the distance also entered a white-hot stage. Zhao Manyan's defensive magic flashed, and he dealt with the attack of a three-headed hellhound alone.

Mu Bai's ice magic continued to freeze the hellhound's actions, Jiang Shaoxu's mental interference caused flaws in the hellhound's attack, and Shreve summoned a group of undead to besiege it.

Mo Fan, seeing the right moment, concentrated the dark energy on the dark sword to the extreme, and stabbed a hellhound's heart with one sword. With a loud bang, the hellhound fell to the ground.

With the death of this hellhound, the other three also fell into panic, their movements became slow, and the originally close cooperation began to disintegrate.

With the blessing of the demon physique and the Night Evil Sword Soul, Mo Fan shuttled between the three hellhounds like a ghost, the dark sword danced like the wind, and the sword energy poured down like a rainstorm. Soon, the three hellhounds also fell in a pool of blood.

The spirits and residual souls were harvested by Mo Fan one after another.

After dealing with the three hellhounds, Mo Fan immediately turned back to support and killed the remaining two hellhounds together in a few seconds.

Seeing that no more hellhounds appeared, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"This ghost thing should be gone, right?" Zhao Manyan said with lingering fear.

The strength of this three-headed hellhound is really terrifying. Even though he is already a super-class magician, he can only barely deal with one. Once he falls into a situation like Mo Fan's siege, he may be overturned in the coordinated combat of the hellhounds.

Mu Bai was puzzled: "Where did these hellhounds come from? When I entered this sacrificial hall, I didn't find any creatures at all."

"Now is not the time to pursue this issue," Shreve said, "Our route should be correct. Since there are three-headed hellhounds here, it means we are approaching the pharaoh's coffin."

Everyone continued to move forward. The three-headed hellhound did not appear again. After passing through the wide sacrificial hall, they came to a completely closed tomb.

This tomb is extremely huge. It has obviously been treated with some kind of space compression magic. Only by stepping into it can you feel its true vastness.

The tomb is in the shape of a triangular cone, with a smooth and flat dome. There are four faces, the highest in the center, gradually decreasing to the surroundings, and the lowest point is about five meters from the ground.

This tomb seems to be a miniature of the interior of the pyramid, but everyone knows that this is only an area in the huge pyramid.

The highest point of the tomb is about 400 meters above the ground. Looking up, everyone found a white-browed spider with a golden head and silver body hanging upside down at the top, motionless. If you don't observe carefully, you might think it's just a decoration.

Unlike ordinary spiders, this spider hangs a straight spider silk from its huge abdomen, and the end is just in the center of the tomb.

The most shocking thing is that there is a coffin hanging under this spider silk! The spider silk spreads into a web at the coffin, hanging the coffin steadily in the air. The dark coffin stands quietly, exuding a noble and evil atmosphere.

Everyone immediately became alert. The existence of a coffin means that there are dead souls hidden inside, and most low-level dead souls are just lonely ghosts without fixed tombs. The owner of this coffin can have such a luxurious resting place in the pyramid, which undoubtedly shows that his identity is special and his status is high.

"Could it be a pharaoh?" Mu Bai asked worriedly.

"It's just a mummy. The pharaoh's tomb should be on a higher level. This is the mummy room." Shreve said affirmatively.

"How can a mummy be so magnificent?" Jiang Shaoxu asked in disbelief.

"This is the Pyramid of Khufu. The mummies who were buried here had very high status at the time." Shreve explained.

"The mummies here are probably equivalent to the nobles of the past. They preserved their bodies very well so that their power in life can be transformed after death. Those who can take care of their own affairs in this way must have strong strength." Shreve added.

"So, where should we go now? There is not even a door here. Did we go the wrong way?" Mo Fan said, glancing at Shreve, hoping that he could give an explanation.

This sentence reminded everyone that there was indeed no obvious passage or door in this spacious hall.

"This is embarrassing. How did you lead the way!" Zhao Manyan picked up Shreve and questioned.

"Put me down quickly. We must be in the right place. The mummy's tomb is in front of the Pharaoh's bedroom. The exit must be hidden. If it was so easy to find, it wouldn't have been a mystery for thousands of years." Shreve struggled.

"He's right, we're on the right path. There are ancient books in the Holy Court that record the internal structure of the Pyramid of Khufu. I've studied them for a month. There are countless mummy chambers under Khufu's bedroom, which can be said to be Khufu's courtiers. The only way to enter Khufu's palace is through these mummy chambers. The mummy chambers are connected to different chambers, and each chamber has four doors on the four walls of the front, back, left, and right. After opening a coffin, a new door will open. But only when the owner of the mummy chamber is killed, will all four doors open." Lingling said.

"Four doors? Which one should we go through?" Mu Bai asked in confusion.

"This... can only be tried and tested slowly. I think there should be only one correct path to Khufu's bedroom." Lingling replied.

"You have to go through the right door to enter Khufu's palace. If you go through the wrong door, you will enter another four-door maze. There are at least hundreds of mummies under Khufu. We may keep breaking into different tombs and either be killed by the owner of the coffin or be trapped here to death." Shrew continued to explain.

Zhao Manyan's eyes went dark after hearing this. How long will it take to make mistakes? This is simply a step-by-step trial and error in a super-large maze. It is possible to be trapped here to death.

Mo Fan also frowned. His identity is extraordinary, so he naturally cannot disappear for too long. If he is trapped in this pyramid for too long, Fanxue Mountain and even the entire Feiniao City will be greatly affected.

"Don't worry too much. There is a hint on an ancient painting. There is a spider on the ground, a scorpion on the spider, a snake behind the scorpion, and an eagle hovering above the snake's head... In other words, as long as we find these tombs, we can find the pharaoh's bedroom." Lingling said.

After hearing this, everyone's anxiety was slowly calmed down. Finally, there was still hope.

"In this case, what we need to do now is to open the coffin and kill the mummy inside, right?" Mo Fan said, staring at the suspended coffin with malicious eyes.
