Chapter 143 You Guys Live a Little Longer

Before Haner could speak, Wu Chang expressed his loyalty to Bishop Hunguang and Duke Luz in the car.

"Don't worry, my Excellencies. As the gravekeeper of Cemetery No. 44, I promise to find the tombs you like so that you can rest in peace and smile in the afterlife."

Duke Luz was in a high position, but he was still able to keep his composure. Bishop Hunguang was a little bit nervous. He looked at Haner and asked:

"Is this your successor?"

Haner nodded and introduced: "He is Sean, a very motivated young man who is traveling around the world and happened to travel to Mikel."

Bishop Hunguang's expression was a little better. He was a foreigner and was not familiar with the language of the Mikel Kingdom, so it made sense.

Luz turned his head to look at the moon. He didn't want to waste time on unimportant things, so he urged, "We should act now."

Bishop Hunguang understood and turned to look at the two of them. "It's getting late. You will lead the way in front. Stop when I say stop. Don't care what we are doing, and don't do unnecessary things. Do you understand?"

Seeing Wu Chang and Haner nod, Bishop Hunguang ordered the knights to start the action.

Nine knights came to the chapel near Cemetery No. 44, waving the hammers in their hands and knocking on the thin walls of the chapel.

Wu Chang acted like a responsible gravekeeper and said dissatisfiedly; "Alas, Your Excellency, what are they doing!"

Bishop Hunguang glanced at Wu Chang and said expressionlessly, "Remember what I said just now, don't care what we are doing, just do your own thing."

Wu Chang shrugged. Okay, you are Party A, I listen to you.

Nine strong knights quickly demolished the chapel. Several of them cleared the ruins of the building and the bodies that had not been buried in it, and began to swing hammers and continue to hit the floor of the chapel.

As the floor was broken, a huge pit was exposed below, and ten sarcophagi were placed in the pit. The manufacturing specifications of the sarcophagi were completely in accordance with the eternal life sarcophagi in the eternal life tomb.

Wu Chang looked at Han Er in confusion, asking with his eyes what was going on.

Han Er spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know.

The sarcophagi in the chapel should have been arranged a long time ago, even longer than before the Soul Light Sect appeared.

The knights dragged the sarcophagi out of the ground and tied them to the back of the carriage with iron chains. Everything was arranged properly, and Bishop Soul Light took out a map of Cemetery No. 44.

The map divided Cemetery No. 44 into ten pieces, eight of which were marked with obvious Xs in red pens, leaving only the two innermost cemeteries without any marks.

Bishop Hunguang ordered Wu Chang and Haner to head towards two empty areas.

Wu Chang and Haner walked in front, only to see Bishop Hunguang and the Knights following behind.

The most eye-catching of them were the two accompanying carriages, each of which was pulled by four horses. Each horse was of a different species and was extremely tall, with its back alone being nearly two meters from the ground.

Only such huge horses could drag five sarcophagi in addition to the carriages.

The Kingdom Cemetery was responsible for burying the dead of the entire Mikkel Kingdom. Anyone with a slightly wealthy family in the kingdom would come to Serina before death and try to bury them in the Kingdom Cemetery.

Moreover, cremation was not popular in the Mikkel Kingdom, and burial took up a lot of space. Even though the Kingdom Cemetery was not small in area, it was extremely crowded after years of accumulation.

Except for the specially left lanes, there were no roads and the tombstones were so numerous that there was no room for the carriages to pass through.

But in front of the giant horse with a leg length of nearly two meters, these are not a problem. The two carriages followed Wu Chang and Han Er and shuttled directly through the tombs. The carriages and the sarcophagus towed behind them completely crushed all the tombstones they encountered.

Wherever the carriages passed, they left a pile of tombstone debris.

Wu Chang frowned and couldn't help but speak for his owner. "Your Excellency, the carriage is not suitable for passing through. We can change the road. It's not appropriate to destroy the tombstones of the dead."

The bishop's face was a little ugly, and he said: "Sean, the gravekeeper, I don't want to repeat it many times. Don't care what we are doing, just do your own thing."

Wu Chang sighed, "Okay, you have the final say."

Not long after entering the cemetery, perhaps as a prelude to the storm, the full moon above slowly turned into a crescent.

As the full moon became waning, thick fog rose in the cemetery, blocking everyone's sight.

Wu Chang lit the gravekeeper's oil lamp. The fog instantly dissipated wherever the light reached. He approached Han Er and let the light cover the two of them. He was going to ask Bishop Hun Guang if the team formation needed to shrink and stay in the light range as much as possible.

But when he turned around, he found that the archbishop and nine knights, including two coachmen driving the carriage, had all lit a gravekeeper's oil lamp.

The light between the oil lamps was connected, making it difficult for the thick fog to approach the team.

The gravekeeper's oil lamp is not produced casually. They were all designed by scholars in the period of Mikel I to cooperate with the eternal life of the blood moon.

Each gravekeeper's oil lamp is an antique that has been passed down for hundreds of years. One carrot has one pit. The royal family has only five spare oil lamps. Due to accidental damage over the years, it is said that only one spare oil lamp is left.

Judging from the effect of dispersing the thick fog, the oil lamps used by the Hun Guang bishops are absolutely genuine. Where did they get the oil lamps?

As we all know, the gravekeeper's oil lamp can only be lit in two situations.

One is that the user is the gravekeeper, and the other is that the gravekeeper position is vacant and the oil lamp has no owner.

Wu Chang glanced at the oil lamp of Bishop Hunguang. There was fresh blood that was not wiped clean at the corners of the lamp base. The origin of the oil lamp was self-evident.

Walking through the thick fog, there was a dead silence around, and the sound of the carriage crushing the tombstone became particularly harsh.

Wu Chang suddenly stopped in place, almost causing Bishop Hunguang, who had been following him, to collide with him.

"What's wrong?" Bishop Hunguang asked.

"Your Excellency, I think their behavior is still inappropriate. Everyone will be residents here in the future. They will see each other every day. And they are too noisy, it is easy to..."

Bishop Hunguang was red-hot and shouted: "Listen, gravekeeper, you made me repeat it too many times, I said..."

"Did you see the moon?"

Bishop Hunguang: "No, and don't interrupt me! I..."

Hmm?

Bishop Hunguang was stunned in the middle of his speech. The voice that interrupted just now did not seem to be Wu Chang's.

Before entering the Kingdom Cemetery, he carefully read the taboos of gravekeepers patrolling at night, which seemed to mention that they should not answer questions from strangers.

It's broken.

Before Bishop Soul Light could prepare, he flew up, and a flesh and blood hand made of thorns came out from under him, pushed him into the air, and then grabbed him tightly while he could not react.

The thorns on the flesh and blood hand, which served as sutures, came alive at this moment, like centipedes, drilling into Bishop Soul Light's body.

"Help!"

Along with Bishop Soul Light's cry for help, several knights who followed behind took action, especially the five old nobles pretending to be knights, who dismembered the flesh and blood hand with one move.

Because the blood moon had not yet appeared, the flesh and blood hand was cut into dozens of pieces and did not revive immediately.

Although everyone acted in time, after being squeezed and drilled, Bishop Soul Light's ribs were broken by the big hand, and his limbs, shoulders and mouth were all drilled through by thorns, leaving bloody holes.

Wu Chang looked at the miserable state of Bishop Hunguang, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I want to remind you that making a sound at this time will attract these monsters."

"I umm umm umm..."

The Bishop Hunguang, whose mouth was drilled with a huge blood hole, spoke very vaguely, but judging from his expression and eyes, he must have cursed very badly.

The voice of Duke Lutz came from the carriage.

"First take Bishop Reeves back to the carriage for treatment, and then disperse the formation and disperse everything that blocks the road."

An ordinary knight of the Hunguang sect helped Bishop Hunguang back to the carriage to treat his wounds, and the other knights dispersed and began to investigate carefully.

I don't know if they listened to Wu Chang's advice, the two drivers began to choose a looser road to move forward, reducing the damage to the tombstone.

After the change of strategy, or after Bishop Hunguang was killed, the crowd did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and they soon arrived at the designated location.

Luz walked out of the carriage, pointed at Wu Chang and Han Er, and said, "It's almost time. You two take a look around and see if you can find anything unusual."

The two quickly patrolled the last two areas according to the map marked by Bishop Hun Guang. Wu Chang whispered:

"Since they have confirmed the place, why do they need us to participate?"

Han Er said, "Because we are gravekeepers. The eternal tomb they are looking for is very special. It is the core of the entire cemetery and is protected by the blood moon ritual. They cannot find it. Only the gravekeeper in charge of the area can find some clues with the power given by the ritual."

When Wu Chang walked to the innermost side of the first unmarked cemetery, he suddenly had an inspiration and noticed that there seemed to be a trace of a door on the ground not far away.

He suppressed the active inspiration with his will, and then looked with his naked eyes, and he could not see anything unusual.

"Brother Haner, look over there, can you see anything?"

Haner looked in the direction Wu Chang pointed, he stared for a minute, then shook his head and said, "I didn't see anything. It seems that only the current gravekeeper can find the entrance to the special eternal tomb."

Wu Chang first asked Haner to stay away. If the eternal tomb was dug out in a while, and Duke Luz turned his face and wanted to kill the two people, let Haner protect himself first and don't worry about him.

Then he circled around and let Irene and Zhenwo seize the advantageous position. Once the chaos started, they could catch the other party by surprise.

Seeing that everyone had taken their positions, he returned to the convoy and said to Luz:

"Your Excellency the Duke, I found an unusual tomb. I wonder if it is what you want."

Luz's face was happy, and he hurriedly said, "Go and have a look first."

Wu Chang led everyone to the designated location. Luz and several nobles disguised as knights took turns to approach to confirm.

Monsters like them who had experienced the first blood moon immortality were very sensitive to the blood moon energy, just like Pastor, who could find other immortal cemeteries through the perception of blood moon energy to some extent.

But like Haner, they did not find anything abnormal.

But sometimes, no abnormality is the biggest abnormality.

Luz personally handed a hoe to Wu Chang and said, "Dig!"

Wu Chang looked at the hoe in his hand with difficulty. "The commission only asked me to open the door, but did not mention digging a pit. Digging a pit is a physical job, and it costs extra money."

Luz did not waste words, and directly took off the gem ring on his hand and threw it to Wu Chang.

"Dig!"

"Item name: Precious gem ring."

"Item description: Property that has been formally transferred by the owner of the item is very valuable and can be exchanged for one thousand decayed silver coins at the system recycling merchant."

Wu Chang put on the ring and immediately swung the hoe and started digging.

One thousand decayed silver coins per pit. If it is always this price, he can dig the entire kingdom's cemetery!

Ten minutes later, a crisp collision sound came from the hole dug by Wu Chang.

The sound instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Luz was the first to rush over with a shovel. The speed was so fast that Wu Chang could hardly see it clearly. Just this unintentional explosive power, Luz's performance was not inferior to Lei Hu on the first day.

Several disguised knights followed closely behind, and a group of nobles, as if they wanted to compete with Wu Chang for performance, dug holes desperately.

Soon, an extremely gorgeous metal tomb door appeared in front of Wu Chang and others.

The doors of the two eternal tombs that Wu Chang had seen before were as different from the door in front of him as the promotional pages and the buyers' show.

Luz turned his head and looked at Wu Chang excitedly, "Open it!"

Wu Chang took out the key that Haner had given him before and inserted it into the door of the tomb.

The key model was wrong, the tooth shape was wrong, and even the style of the key and the door was wrong, but the strange thing was that it could really be turned after being inserted.

Accompanied by the click of the gears and the friction of the metal plates, the door of the tomb under everyone's feet opened.

Wu Chang shouted inside: "Is anyone home? Several tenants want to share the rent with you. Do you have any objections?"

His voice echoed in the tomb, and no sound came from inside.

"It seems that he has no objection."

Luz and others did not pay attention to Wu Chang's actions. They unloaded the sarcophagus they were dragging. Luz took down a special large sarcophagus that belonged to him from the carriage he was riding.

The group dragged eleven sarcophagi and entered the eternal tomb.

As soon as they entered the Tomb of Eternal Life, they saw a golden throne in the center of the tomb. A man with a majestic face, wearing a crown and golden full-body armor sat on it, overlooking everything in the tomb.

Wu Chang had seen this man in the resentment of the Miracle Tree. He was Mikel I.

He had seen him before, but with his current status, he was still surprised.

So he instantly retreated behind everyone, dragged the Soul Light Bishop who was recuperating in a wheelchair, held him in front of him as a human shield, and asked:

"Is this the tomb of His Majesty Mikel I? From his appearance, he doesn't seem to welcome us. How about we forget it this time?"

Luz sneered, put the sarcophagus next to the golden throne, and said, "He can't take care of us."

Several knights followed Luz's example and put the sarcophagus in place.

Luz came to Wu Chang, stretched out his hand to grab Bishop Hunguang, and said, "Lend it to me."

Wu Chang let go and said, "Please."

Luz put Bishop Hunguang into a sarcophagus, then drew out his sword and stabbed him with a sword.

Wu Chang frowned and thought to himself, is this going to kill the donkey after it has done its job?

Luz seemed to see what he was thinking, turned his head to look at Wu Chang, and said, "This is part of the ceremony."

The discovery of the eternal tomb of Mikel I seemed to make Luz a lot more cheerful, breaking his character of being frugal with words, and his awkward tone became fluent.

"We need to enter a near-death state and die completely within one minute of the moon turning into a blood moon, and then be resurrected by the blood moon to successfully absorb the power of the blood moon. Without any part, it won't work."

As he said this, Luz pointed his finger at Mikel I on the golden throne and said mockingly;

"He is the same. In order to welcome the eternal life of the blood moon, he entered a complete death early. Even if he sensed our arrival, he couldn't wake up and stop us."

As if to confirm Luz's point of view, the other nine knights lay in the sarcophagus, turned their swords, and stabbed them into their chests.

The bloody smell instantly filled the entire secret room.

Wu Chang seemed to be afraid of blood, so he turned his head and asked in a low voice: "What if you don't die when the blood moon appears? Do you need my help?"

Luz said: "Then you will really die. But it doesn't matter. We have a way to control our life and death."

Wu Chang swallowed his saliva, looked at Luz who was gradually approaching, and asked: "Do I have to do this too?"

Luz shook his head, looked at Wu Chang and Haner standing at the door, and said:

"You don't have to. What you have to do is to wake us up immediately when the red moon ends. We must wake up earlier than Mikel I, otherwise, we will all die."

After that, he took out a palm-sized short horn from his arms, and took off a sapphire ring from his hand, and handed them to Wu Chang together.

"Remember, you must wake us up as soon as possible. After the matter is done, the generous reward will definitely exceed your imagination."

Wu Chang looked at the gem ring worth 2,000 decayed silver coins in his hand, frowned slightly, he could understand the horn, but what does the gem ring mean? Look down on him? Is he, Wu Chang, such a person?

In order to clean up his image in Luz's eyes, he looked at the emerald ring on Luz's thumb and said, "I actually like green."

Luz was stunned for a moment, then took off the ring and threw it to Wu Chang.

"Do what you should do, and you can get as many of these things as you want."

Wu Chang stood at attention instantly, his body straight, and said: "I promise to complete the task. Those who are familiar with my character know that I have always been content and never greedy!"

Luz curled his lips without commenting. If he dared to ask him for things directly, he would not be greedy.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Luz hurriedly got into the coffin, stabbed his heart with his sword, looked at Mikel I above, showed disdain at the corner of his mouth, and then closed his eyes.

This round, they won.

Everyone lay in the coffin. Now, only Wu Chang and Han Er remained awake in the eternal life chamber.

Wu Chang hummed music, threw the gem ring into the portable space, and then went to the door of the tomb with Han Er to observe the changes of the moon.

When the moon turned from crescent to round and gradually took on red, the breath of everyone in the tomb became weak, and they were about to die completely, Wu Chang hummed music and returned to the tomb.

He said to Han Er, "Didn't you want to see what I took from the Soul Light Church?"

Han Er was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Wu Chang was up to, but still said, "Yes."

Wu Chang took out the four-sided fire lamp, and under the illumination of the fire, the dying people instantly regained their weak vitality.

He looked at Luz and said slowly:

"I said, I have always been content and never greedy, so you can live a little longer."
