Chapter 337 There is too much digging in the 336 game, but in this game
Chapter 337 336. There are a lot of digging graves in the game, but this is the first time in this game that I have to fight in reverse! - [1215]
(Additional update for "Pink Cat and Rabbit mk2" brothers [2/5])
In this continent filled with psychic legends, the cultivation of any high-level military unit cannot avoid the ritual of introducing external energy.
After all, individual life is always fragile compared to the majestic mysterious power. The combination of individual and mysterious power can obviously bring about a reborn effect.
Because of this, if the young Earl of Sharon and the Knights of Wallander want to rebuild the formation of the Hussars as soon as possible, they must first re-sign the guardianship contract with the ancestral forest.
Only by regaining the blessings of the spirits of the mountains and forests can the newly recruited cavalry be blessed with supernatural power and speed, and only in this way can the "undefeated legend" of the winged cavalry in Transia be maintained.
This should have been an ancestral secret of the Sicomal family, the leader of the mountain people for generations.
It is a pity that little Sharon, who took over the identity of Count Xico during the crisis, only found out this secret two days ago, and she learned all this from her dead father.
If you want to re-sign the war contract with the ancestral forest to bless all new members of the Hussars, you must use a mysterious "Linwood Holy Grail", but that thing has been hidden in the tomb of the first Count Xiko.
The devastation caused by war not only tortures the living, but even tramples the dead.
Years of war had destroyed the family mausoleum to such an extent that when this sacred moment was about to come, little Sharon even had to place her hopes on the two "grave robbers".
Ms. Dorothy, who has a very exciting life resume, and her apprentice thief Frostfang Claw, who specializes in this industry in another world, are currently looking for the tomb of the first Earl Xiko.
Not only did they go alone, they even brought a "professional team" with them.
Because of Brother Mew Miao's tragic experience of being kicked out of the game and unable to enter the game for seven days, the other brothers in his Big Bird Rotation Group also turned into headless flies and didn't know what to do. They happened to meet the Frost Fang Claw.
If you want to go for a "back fight", young players who never want to miss any "special gameplay" certainly can't miss it.
They were considered "legal tomb robbers", but before going down to the collapsed tomb, Lord Murphy personally warned them:
Never touch anything you shouldn’t bring out!
The mausoleum of the first Earl of Sico also belongs to the category of "forbidden land" near this mountain forest. The little Earl of Sharon used the reputation of the Siko Maier family to make a guarantee with the elders of the mountain people to allow them to go down.
If the mountain warriors who were guarding the area discovered the theft of funerary objects when they came up, Murphy would not be able to save them.
It has to be said that for Ms. Dorothy, who had been a tomb robber for a while, this restriction was even more uncomfortable than killing her.
After all, there are really a lot of "good things" in Count Xiko's mausoleum.
"This is an ancient tomb that is over 300 years old. Its underground main body is still intact, but the young Earl of Sharon said that there must be a mechanism to prevent tomb robbers, so you should watch your hands and don't touch things that you shouldn't touch.
bump."
Frostfang Claw, who rarely talks on the ground and is a bit timid, immediately became "talkative" after entering the tomb.
This is probably some characteristic related to his profession.
He held a torch in the dark tomb passage, and skillfully avoided the obvious problematic areas in the tomb with a sense of ease of "revisiting the old place." At the same time, he used the same attitude as a "tour guide" to pay attention to the four kings following behind him.
Said to Xiaoshou and Yansang:
"You should follow me closely, and don't panic if any mechanism is triggered. Considering that this is a family cemetery, there shouldn't be any outrageous things that will cause the entire structure to collapse once triggered, so in most cases, actually
They can all be saved.
But you must be brave and careful, and don't panic when something happens! When you have to find a place to hide, remember to go to the corner. If you really can't go into the sarcophagus, the safer it seems, the more dangerous it is. This is not a jingle."
"Wow, buddy, you are so professional."
Sanwu Dou, who was also carrying a torch and carrying a shield, looked around in the darkness and asked in a low voice to Frostfang Claw, who was leading the way:
"What do you do specifically for this in real life?"
"Roughly the same."
Yaya grinned in the dark and didn't explain much.
Returning to this dim environment made him feel strangely "at ease". When he looked up again, he saw that his mentor Dorothy was already standing by a broken wall and studying a damaged gargoyle head sculpture.
The players walked over and discovered that there were several corpses lying scattered beside the wall at that end.
"It seems we are not the first ones to come down."
Ms. Dorothy glanced at the dried corpse at her feet but still showing traces of decay. She pointed at the broken gargoyle sculpture in front of her and curled her lips and said:
"These unlucky guys are wearing the military uniforms of the Plantagenet Kingdom. They are probably scouts sent by the pioneering army. These guys are really unprofessional! They dare to come close to such an obvious psychic trap. When I went to the tomb, I wasn't bragging, like
I can recognize this obvious trap at a glance."
"Not all of them were killed by psychic energy."
Yaya knelt down and looked at the corpses of the "predecessors" with the caution a stalker should have, and found bite marks on one of them.
He glanced at the iron door leading to the main tomb that had been pushed open in front of him, and said:
"There must be some supernatural things here. Earl Sharon said that when the ancestor of the first generation of the Sicomaire family was buried, his favorite war dogs were also buried here."
"Damn it, is there really a ghost here?"
Yan Sang in the crowd shook his body, and he suddenly realized that it seemed a bit risky for him, a weak investigator, to follow him.
But other players don't care.
They just silently drew their weapons, preparing to deal with the danger that might arise next.
"Take your weapons back!"
Dorothy scolded:
"I have the crest of the Sicomaire family in my hand, given by Earl Sharon. This is enough to prevent us from being attacked by the guards of the dead in the tomb, but you can't explain it clearly when you hold weapons to meet other people's ancestors.
Already.
Judging from my experience, dead people are not that patient to reason with you."
"Ouch."
After being scolded by the NPC, the players obediently took back their weapons and headed deeper into the tomb under the leadership of Dorothy.
The road ahead collapsed badly and even had water accumulation. Several strength-based "animal" players had to step forward to play the role of "shovel dancer" to quickly clear a road while the bricks and stones were flying everywhere.
This is also the main reason why Dorothy and Yaya brought them down.
"The collapse of the tomb passage is not entirely a bad thing. Several hidden traps were also destroyed."
Yaya walked around a few times and then reported to Dorothy Hui:
"The road leading to the side tomb was completely blocked by falling rocks, and we don't have to worry about being attacked by the souls of the hussar warriors who were buried with Count Xico. I now suspect that the destruction of this cemetery was probably not an accident.
Perhaps the Pioneer Legion deliberately attacked this place so that their scouts could safely enter the cemetery, or maybe they also wanted to take something from here.
Like the Holy Grail we came down to find."
"Why do you think the Pioneer Legion wants to do this?"
Dorothy, who has quite a lot of life experience, shook her head and said:
"Those corpses are wearing the uniforms of the Pioneer Legion, which does not mean that they must be the subordinates of the semi-dwarf. Based on my understanding of the customs of the dwarves, robbing graves and disturbing the peace of the dead is a heinous crime in their culture.
They believe that these resting places under the earth are the refuge of Mother Earth, and Lady Gaia does have a ‘Guardian of the Dead and Cemeteries’ in her ministry.
So I guess that the exploration of this cemetery most likely comes from some hidden forces within the pioneering army."
Frostfang Claw nodded.
The local customs analyzed by his tutor are very reasonable. This is the experience and way of thinking that he must learn.
"But to my surprise, you seem to be very familiar with things like tombs that ordinary people avoid. Looking at you walking in the dark, you look like an expert in your own field."
Dorothy looked up and down at her apprentice from another world, her eyes glowing reddish in the darkness. After a few seconds of thinking, she approached Yaya and whispered:
"This tomb is a treasure trove that we cannot loot, but I also know that there are other 'wealths' hidden underground in Transia. How about we work together? We will definitely become rich."
"No, I refuse to accumulate wealth in this disgusting way."
Yaya refused very decisively:
"My professional ethics do not allow me to do this kind of thing. If I develop bad habits here, I will make unforgivable mistakes in my hometown. You should find other interested people."
"Huh, forget it."
Dorothy curled her lips and said:
"Leading a group of stupid young people to hunt for treasure in those dangerous tombs is equivalent to burying one's feet half in the soil. I'd better wait for the other members of the Blood Rat Gang to grow up before discussing these plans.
But my apprentice, you have to understand that if you want to make a fortune in our profession, you have to let go of your morality. So much wealth is buried underground and never sees the light of day. We just bring it back to the world to do something meaningful."
"Is this how you self-hypnotize?"
Yaya said with a slight disdain:
"Taking away grave goods in a world without psychic powers will result in double condemnation from the heart and the law, but in this land full of magical power, the price you have to bear if you dare to disturb the peace of the deceased is almost tenfold.
I advise you not to do these things again.
Even if you are a vampire, I can't protect you from falling over. If you provoke a very powerful evil spirit, I'm afraid I will have to take the time to send your ashes back to your hometown thousands of miles away, and then spend time attending your memorial service."
"Humph, this is just an 'occupational risk' in our line of work."
Dorothy was said to be a bit fussy by her apprentice.
She recalled that there were indeed many cases in the Explorers Association where she had been, showing that thieves with unclean hands and feet often ended badly, but how could she give up with such a tough-tongued character?
While the master and apprentice were bickering, several players from Big Bird's Turning Group had quickly cleared away the collapsed tomb passage. However, the moment the last rock was pushed away, the three men holding shovels suddenly
Wu Dou and Brother Heisi immediately froze in place.
In the dark tomb passage in front of them, five half-ghost war dogs still wearing rusty armor were staring at these "uninvited guests" with eyes burning with blue will-o'-the-wisps.
The ghosts of these war dogs were each half as tall as a human being, and their postures about to pounce and the ferocity of their spirit bodies' sharp teeth opened made the two young players who saw them feel like they were dead.
"Five tomb ghosts! They are all special black iron elites marked as 'Guardian Spirits'! Damn it, don't move! They are staring at us."
San Wu Dou issued a low warning, telling Little Hand and Yan Sang behind him not to run away. If they were pursued by these war dogs in such a narrow terrain, they would be doomed.
"Stand back! We are the envoys of the contemporary Earl of Sicomal!"
While the little players were confronting each other, Dorothy stepped forward quickly, holding the family emblem of Little Earl Sharon and scolding the five ferocious war dogs in front of her.
The aura coming from the clan emblem made the ghost war dogs who had already entered combat state express doubts.
The tallest war dog among them came forward and sniffed it as if it were still alive. After confirming that the clan emblem in Dorothy's hand came from the blood of Sicomal, it let out a hollow and low bark, which made the war dog
The dogs made a way.
"Follow me, don't panic."
Dorothy said something behind her.
She stepped into the tomb passage in front of her, Yaya following her hand, and other players filed in. Under the "watching" of those ghostly dogs, they finally entered the tomb where the first Count Xico was buried.
It's surprisingly simple here.
In the very center is a sarcophagus entangled with black vines, as well as some funerary objects used by the tomb owner during his lifetime, but there are two strange "scarecrows" placed on both sides of the tomb.
It was woven from special wood and vines and looked like a humanoid creature with antlers.
"That's a ritual object used to summon the deer-headed spirit."
Dorothy explained in a low voice:
"If you encounter an inexperienced tomb robber who casually takes the things here, the summoning ceremony will be triggered. Two deer-headed spirits will appear here, and together with five ghost war dogs, it will be enough to bury any tomb robber gang.
I heard that monsters like the deer-headed spirit can also bind the soul. In other words, if you die in their hands, your soul will not even have a chance to return to the underworld."
"Look! There's a treasure there!"
Lao Qu, who had the sharpest eyes, looked around, and finally set his sights on the sarcophagus, which contained the weapons and armor used by the first earl.
The grade of the armor dotted with animal heads was hard to tell, but the barbarian-style double-edged battle ax had spent more than three hundred years in the tomb and still shone with a sharp and cold light under the torch.
At first glance, it is not ordinary.
The members of the Big Bird Tour group, you look at me, I look at you.
They were all a little excited. After all, for the players, they were finally allowed to enter such a forbidden place and found good things. It felt a pity not to take them out.
"If you want to die, don't take me with you!"
Yaya felt the desire in his companion's heart, and he immediately persuaded:
"This is a story mission. Don't mess around. If you really want to wait until the incident is over, you can organize a group of people to come back and search again. You all know the way, but I guess as long as you pick up that battle ax, it will trigger the tomb.
of organs.
Judging from the strength of these measures, I estimate that you will have to find at least ten black iron warriors to defeat this battle scenario.
And if you take this ax, you will definitely become enemies with the Sicomaire family, but the young Earl of Sharon is an important NPC in the engineering profession, and he also has the reputation of the winged cavalry camp.
Unless it’s really a legendary weapon, it’s totally worth the loss!”
"That makes sense."
Lao Qu looked back regretfully.
But soon, the little hand next to him came over and whispered something, which made the other people in the Big Bird Turning Group stunned for a moment, but soon they seemed to reach an agreement.
Yaya didn't know what decision they made, but he could guess that these guys probably didn't want to give up the profits here.
He didn't try to persuade me again.
After all, this is just a game. You can only control your own morals, but you cannot restrict the way other players enjoy the game.
He and Dorothy bowed in front of the sarcophagus of the first Earl and saluted, and then began to search for the required "mission items", but the Holy Grail in the forest was not hidden very deeply.
It was placed on the table in front of the sarcophagus. It was an ordinary-looking cup made of a special kind of wood. When Frostfang Claw picked it up, it started the item identification, but the information obtained
But his eyes lit up:

What you hold in your hand is only one of many Holy Grails.
It is not suitable for the path you are currently choosing, but don’t be discouraged. As long as you don’t stop moving forward, you can always get your own Holy Grail on the road to legend.】
"I got it, let's leave."
Yaya turned around and said something to his fellow players, but heard a few guys from the Big Bird Group discussing something outrageous in whispers:
"So, to sum up, where should we find a group of tomb robbers who are not afraid of death and have dedication? They will take the blame, and we will take the benefits. If it works well, let alone weapons and harvests, even Sharon
The reputation of the little earl can also be greatly improved.
Hey, how about we spread the map of this tomb?
There will always be fools who are not afraid of death and will come to make a fortune. By then, won’t our brothers have a way out?
