"Wow!" Frightened by the huge face that suddenly appeared in front of the screen, Bailey fell back and sat on the ground.
Elaine was also frightened, but he could not show his weak side in front of children. He pretended to be strong and pretended to be calm, but he was just stunned for a moment.
However, the huge face that appeared there was not as scary as it looked. It was not the face of any creature, it was just the face of a huge... statue? What the huge human face wanted to depict should be a certain great ancient figure.
A human hero. Elaine isn't so sure.
"Oh." He thought about what was going on, "Yes, it is part of the ruins left on the seabed by the [Warrior's Tomb]."
"Warrior's Grave?"
"Super, super huge ancient ruins." Elaine replied, although he knew very little about them. Most of the stories he heard about them were from others: "This, these ruins are all over the sea and underground near Great Britain."
, there are many entrances and exits, but they all only lead to the same depth."
Almost all people in Great Britain, or people who have lived in Great Britain, and even most Europeans have heard of this legend. It is not so much a legend as it is a fact that actually happened.
"In the depths of the ruins full of traps, there is the [King's Sword ()] sealed - that is, the magic weapon that made His Majesty King Arthur become His Majesty King Arthur."
"Ah! I've heard of this! I've heard of it!" Talking about this, the little fox suddenly became excited, and the previous fear immediately disappeared: "In legends, countless heroes have challenged underground mazes full of death traps, trying to
Pulling out the magic weapon from the anvil; as a result, they either lost their lives in the ruins, or arrived at the location of the holy sword, only to find that they could not pull it out, and returned in vain. It was the [Warrior's Tomb] that sealed the holy sword.
]?"
"Yeah." Elaine nodded: "We are very, very close to Great Britain. Is there an entrance to the [Warrior's Tomb] on the seabed here?"
It stands to reason that the automatic navigation system of the [Leo] will automatically avoid obstacles in the sea. However, there are some barriers or protective energy barriers near the [Warrior's Tomb] that cannot be detected by the system. The automatic navigation system just let it go.
The ship hit it head-on. However, it was a barrier, not a hard object, and it did not cause any damage to the hull. It only produced a considerable resistance, causing the ship to pause temporarily. The automatic navigation system had no way to determine the end of the ship.
It hit something, and for safety reasons, it directly activated the suspension protection protocol and stopped the ship to prevent the ship from continuing to penetrate the unknown obstacle and be further damaged.
Elaine checked it and found that it was indeed the case. The damage to the hull was also very slight. At most, there were only slight scratches and dents in some fragile parts of the bow.
A false alarm.
"Now, big brother, since we are here, do we want to explore the warriors' graves?" Bailey asked suddenly.
"No." The white lion boy flatly refused: "It's full of death traps, very dangerous. And, there are no treasures in it anymore. The only important holy sword has been taken away by His Majesty King Arthur, remember?"
?"
"I know. But who knows if there are other valuable treasures in this ruins?" The little fox waggled his tail in anticipation: "Wouldn't it be great if the elder brother could pick up one or two magic weapons from it?"
How could there be any magic weapon left? Elaine thought to herself. There are quite a few murder traps and various terrifying monsters guarding the maze.
In the past, countless exploration teams came to the Warriors Tomb in order to obtain the Holy Sword. However, most of these exploration teams returned without success. Only King Arthur finally obtained the Holy Sword. Since so many people have come to explore this Warriors Tomb, this
The valuable treasures inside must have been looted long ago.
And Elaine had also heard that even after the King of Great Britain had obtained the Holy Sword, the Knights of Great Britain continued to send exploration teams to the warriors' tombs, trying to explore the structure of the entire warriors' tombs. Half of this was for
The other half of archeology is also to train those knights, so that they can survive in many dangers and become stronger. Of course, participation in this kind of exploration team is voluntary, and only those who are quite unafraid of death can do so.
Only a knight would run into such a dead place.
The current Warrior Tomb can be said to be an old woman who has been used to the point of being flabby. She no longer has the innocence of a virgin... The image of Fantine suddenly appeared in Elaine's mind.
While Elaine was thinking, Bailey kept tugging on Elaine's lion's tail, nagging Elaine to go explore the warriors' tomb. It seems that the little fox is very fascinated by this kind of ancient monument, and really thinks there is something worth exploring here.
.
With no other choice, Elaine could only compromise and said: "Yes, you can go in and take a look. But you can only look at it from the door, and you can't go deep. It's too dangerous inside the ruins."
If he was alone, he could always do something when he was in danger. But he was not sure whether he could protect Bailey. It was too difficult to take care of a child.
"Okay, I can be satisfied after just one look!" Bailey said happily. Fortunately, this child is easily satisfied.
The white lion boy sighed. It seemed that the boy would not give up if he did not satisfy Bailey's curiosity. So let's just satisfy him.
"You're too doting on your child," Queeg suddenly interjected.
"It's noisy, it's so noisy!" Elaine said angrily. Then he pressed the switch on the control panel to prepare the transport boat. A small transport gunboat made in France actually looks similar to a cavalry. Let's call it a cavalry, then.
The iron cavalry does not carry weapons, but it does have a very powerful shield device. The shield is so powerful that it can even repel water in the deep sea. Use this to fly short distances and enter ruins.
"You, you keep it to look after the house." Elaine rolled her eyes at Queeg.
"Yes, the child's father." Queeg said jokingly.
"Ouch!" Elaine was too lazy to pay attention to Queeg, and dragged Bailey's little hand towards the machinery warehouse.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of the warrior's tomb.
A stone arch emerges from the dilapidated ancient ruins on the bottom of the water, and stairs and corridors lead to the depths. The entrance to the ruins hidden on the seabed still retains certain functions, so there is a barrier near the entrance to block the sea water, so water cannot flow in and submerge the ruins.
.Although it should be an entrance to the seabed that no one has visited for thousands of years, this entrance can still be explored.
Elaine parked the cavalry directly near the entrance, then took out his sword and shield, and walked carefully into the ruins.
"One, you must follow me closely, you know?" the white lion boy instructed.
"Yes, big brother." The little fox grabbed Elaine's lion tail and said. But at this time, his eyes were already shining, and he looked curiously at the dilapidated but historical monuments around him.
"There are no corpses?" he asked: "Didn't it mean that many warriors tried to break through and died here?"
"This one is just the entrance," Elaine said: "There are no dangerous traps near the entrance. No, no one will die near the entrance."
"Really? What a pity."
"...You, you want to see the body? Aren't you afraid?"
"No, I'm still afraid, but I want to feel the breath of death in the warrior's grave." The little fox said with a silly smile on his face.
(This kid really knows how to talk...)
"Can you go a little deeper?" Bailey took out a telescope and said, "I promise I won't go to a dangerous place. I just took a few glances and left."
Where there are corpses, there must be murder traps. As long as you see the corpses, it is already unsafe. This child is deliberately testing the edge of death and feeling the breath of death. Oh my God.
But now that they are all here, Elaine really doesn’t want Bailey to leave disappointed.
"You, you can only watch from a distance and are not allowed to get close to the body." Elaine wondered: "One, once we sense any danger, we have to retreat, okay?"
"Yeah, definitely." The blue fox boy said with his tail raised, his ears raised high, and he was extremely happy.
But it is still very dangerous to let Bailey go deep into the warrior's grave like this. At least some precautions must be taken. It is also impossible to let Bailey wear armor; but Elaine has a compromise.
He tore off many pieces of cloth from the holy cloth (the holy cloth will be restored immediately after tearing off part of it, and it is basically endless), and wrapped it like a bandage on Bailey's head, chest, abdomen, hands and feet
It's not very tight, because I'm afraid Bailey will feel uncomfortable. But the holy cloth is "theoretically indestructible". With this protection, it can prevent sharp arrows shot from a dark place and protect Bailey from death.
.
Elaine also tried to use the holy cloth to bandage or keep Bailey warm before, but the holy cloth torn from the original holy cloth on Elaine's body could not last more than two hours. After two hours, the separated one
The fragments of the Holy Cloth will turn into ashes and disappear completely. Unless you wrap the Holy Cloth around yourself like Elaine as a bandage, the split Holy Cloth will be very close to the original, and it will be used by its owner.
, the fragments of the holy cloth will not disappear.
Despite this, the fragments of the holy cloth wrapped around Bailey's body for protection can last for two hours, which is already good. It cannot be said to be a complete protection, but it is better than nothing.
"Hey, I look like a mummy, a red mummy." The little fox said, "Can you wrap my face too? This makes it look more like."
"No, it affects breathing." Elaine hummed. In fact, it is enough to protect Bailey's forehead and back of his head (and the back of his neck). There are no particularly important organs on the face that need to be protected. Of course Elaine
I also want to cover Bailey's eyes, because sharp arrows can still pierce the eyes and reach the brain. But this way Bailey will not be able to see.
"Okay! Let's go on an adventure!" Bailey said excitedly, raising his hands.
"Why do you like to explore in such dangerous places..." Elaine said in confusion.
"Because exploring in the unknown maze is a kind of romance." The little fox smiled and said: "When I grow up, I will also be a great adventurer, as great an adventurer as my elder brother."
"I, I'm not an adventurer..." the white lion boy groaned.
If you want to say it, he should be the exact opposite of the word adventurer. Not to mention the extremely dangerous maze like Warrior's Tomb, even the Lost City of Atlantis, which is second to Warrior's Tomb, is clumsy.
Elaine has also "died" countless times in it. If it weren't for the powerful self-healing ability of his White Bear transformation, he would have died in the maze long ago, lying among the cold corpses in the maze.
He is one of them. He falls into countless murder traps so easily. He is probably a shame among adventurers and does not deserve to be called an adventurer at all.
If Bailey knew these things, what would this child think of Elaine? The White Lion boy couldn't help but trembled in his heart... Anyway, after arriving in Great Britain, they would be separated from this child. They probably wouldn't have a chance in the future.
See you again.
Thinking of this, Elaine couldn't help showing a lonely expression. But he walked in front and deliberately hid his expression from the child.
They had advanced about another twenty yards, and had already entered the main maze of the Warriors' Tomb. From here on, there should be many murder traps, and there might even be dangerous monsters or golems. Elaine couldn't help but become more vigilant.
"Wow!" Bailey grabbed Elaine's tail with one hand and pinched it, while holding a telescope with the other hand to look into the distance. He really found a corpse, to be more precise, it was already a long time ago.
The skeleton was covered in bones. The skeleton was lying next to a broken spear trap. It was stabbed out of the wall, and the rusty ancient spear penetrated the body - now the flesh and blood on its body has long since corroded and disappeared, only the ribs are stuck.
There, it is almost integrated with the spear.
This visual impact is what Bailey calls "the breath of death". Is it possible that this kind of underground labyrinth, which is full of dangers, can only exist?
"You, you saw it too," Elaine said, "Now, it's almost time, it's time to go?"
"Yeah, I'm satisfied, but it would be nice if I could see more clearly. Is there any way to light up the area without getting too close?" the little fox asked.
This is quite simple. Elaine took a small amount of flame rosin, spread it on a rag, and then wrapped the rag around a rusty sword hilt he found on the ground. Then he tapped the weapon lightly to ignite the rosin.
, and made an impromptu torch. He threw the torch towards the location of the body, and soon the nearby passage was illuminated very brightly.
"Oh, oh, oh, I saw it, I saw it!" Bailey said happily, observing the details nearby with a telescope: "It's amazing, this is the underground maze."
(You have to see the corpse to have the atmosphere of an underground maze...)
"Okay, I, we are about the same..." Elaine felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and originally planned to take Bailey away.
But at this moment, footsteps sounded around. Someone was approaching step by step from the end of the passage.
Elaine was nervously guarding against the one who was about to appear, thinking it was a dangerous monster or golem lingering in the warrior's grave. However, when that someone walked around the corner and appeared from the end of the passage, the white lion boy was stunned for a moment.
Stunned.
That was a very young knight boy wearing a white and silver knight's armor of Great Britain.
Elaine even knew the man, albeit only once.
"Uh," when seeing Elaine, Silver Knight boy Daniel said in surprise: "Have the monsters in the Warriors' Tomb evolved to be so human-like?"
"You, you are like a monster, your whole family is like a monster!" Elaine complained fiercely.
