Chapter 337 Attack
On the rocks covered with vines, the figure appeared out of thin air wearing a hooded raincoat, with a shaggy beard and a pair of bright eyes.
This person is none other than the Twelve Earthly Branches Pigkin Fulis of the Hunter Association, and he is also one of the top five telepathic people in the world.
On the land of Luxi Kingdom, there was once a civilization where a hundred flowers bloomed.
As time goes by, no matter how glorious a civilization is, it will eventually be submerged in the long river of history and eventually be left behind in various forms.
Jin is a relic hunter, so he will not miss this country known for its civilized relics.
He has set foot here many times. Although he has not participated in the excavation of local ruins, he is still interested in going to the ruins open to the public to get up close and personal with historical relics.
Because there were still many ruins under excavation at that time, in order to make it easier to visit the excavated ruins next time, Jin placed divine characters with the ability to teleport wherever he passed.
Although there is no deliberate attempt to hide the existence of the divine characters, the location of those divine characters will not attract anyone's attention.
Jin now wanted to activate the divine word ability to go to the next destination, but failed to transmit it successfully.
This means that the next divine word teleportation point may have been damaged or moved.
Of course, it is not necessarily man-made, it may be accidentally touched by an animal, or even the layout may be shifted due to an earthquake, thus making the divine words lose their effect.
When Jin originally set up the divine word, he just thought that it might be used in the future. If not, he would let the divine word lose its effectiveness at a certain moment as time goes by.
Therefore, in the process of constructing these teleportation divine characters, Jin did not work hard on the aspect of "sturdiness", but instead devoted most of the "capacity" to the teleportation ability.
Therefore, these divine characters are very delicate and can easily lose their effectiveness under the influence of external forces.
"It's been so long, it's not surprising that it's broken."
Jin didn't care much about losing the shortcut, but there was still a long way to go from here to the Tarot area.
"no solution anymore."
Now I can only walk there honestly.
Jin raised his hand and pulled down the brim of his hat slightly, jumped off the rock covered with vines, looked up in the direction of the Tarot area, and bright thoughts slowly emerged from his feet in the mud.
Swish——
The group of thoughts condensed on the soles of his feet suddenly lit up, and Jin's figure suddenly turned into a stream of light, flying towards the darkness in the distance like an arrow.
When Jin's figure disappeared into the darkness, the dense raindrops falling from the sky turned into mist all over the sky.
………………
The site where the tomb was excavated.
The shadow of a person, the name of a tree.
The deeds of hunting the Phantom Troupe earned Moyu the nickname "Spider Killer".
Because of the weight contained in this nickname, Ada and General Danny accepted Moyu's arrival, and also allowed Menqi and Xiaodi to accompany them.
This is the value of reputation.
but……
What is more critical is the intelligence brought by Moyu and the motivation for coming to the Tarot area stated by Moyu to Ada.
That's why General Danny came to greet him personally.
He believed that Moyuna's ability to hunt down three spiders was a sharp blade that could be borrowed and used at no cost.
So, it doesn't matter if you lower your body and position in front of this sharp blade that can bring benefits.
Facing the enthusiasm shown by General Danny, Moyu knew it well.
It can only be said that we need each other.
Moyu needs a legitimate identity that is not restricted, and he can also use the army stationed here to find out the scale of the operations of the Erimo gang.
General Danny's army bears the great responsibility of ensuring the smooth progress of the excavation work. After learning that the Elimo Thief Group is very likely to be operating in the Tarot area, they will certainly not let go of the opportunity to rely on Moyu's power.
"Before you came here, I had issued the highest level of alert, but nothing has been discovered yet."
General Danny personally led the way, and on the way to the tent, he revealed a message to Moyu.
Moyu was secretly surprised when he heard this.
Even though the information he brought was backed by reputation, from the perspective of the Luxi military, this information was essentially unverified news.
Would you rather believe it or not?
Moyu looked at General Danny and was surprised by the other man's courage and decisiveness.
From this point of view, the existence of this army can indeed help him grasp the movements of the Elimo Thief Group at the first time.
This is good.
Moyu thought to himself, and then glanced at the location of the tomb.
In fact, from his position, he couldn't see the entrance to the mausoleum.
But he can roughly grasp the location of the entrance to the tomb.
because--
Even if he didn't sense anything specifically, the "aura of death thoughts" emanating from the tomb was as conspicuous in his "vision" as a bright light in the dark night.
It is not a strange phenomenon that there will be "death thoughts" in mausoleums or ruins.
Currently, most of the known "mind tools" in the world are found in mausoleums or ruins. Compared with the existence of "mind tools", the most common ones in mausoleums and ruins are rootless thoughts of death. .
Some death thoughts are relatively weak, and even ordinary tomb robbers can be immune to them, let alone pose a threat to people with the ability to read.
Some thoughts of death are so strong that even in the form of pure energy, they can cause death to ordinary people upon contact.
However, this level of death thoughts usually exist in the form of abilities in tombs or ruins, and the most common phenomenon is that death thoughts control corpses or skeletons to attack invaders.
The death thoughts that Moyu felt at the moment from the tomb excavation site were not strong enough.
However——
Moyu felt a strange sense of contradiction from it.
The intensity of the death thoughts was obviously very low, but the sense of existence was strong enough for Moyu to easily sense it.
"Is there a mind-eliminating master to guard the scene..."
Moyu thought to himself.
After all, Luluxi is a peculiar country that "produces" ruins or tombs. Many times, they are either excavating ruins or on the way to excavate ruins.
In such a background environment, it is not surprising that a mind-eliminating master who reduces the difficulty of excavation will be born.
"Let Shadow be on guard nearby, and go to the tomb to investigate the situation."
Moyu looked straight ahead at General Danny, while controlling Shadow to go to the entrance of the tomb.
Before coming to the military camp, Moyu released a unit of shadows to guard the surrounding area as usual.
On the one hand, it can greatly expand the field of vision of the guard, and on the other hand, it can become an unexpected chess piece for the enemy when dealing with unexpected events.
After sensing the weak but strong death thought, Moyu had the idea of letting the shadow go to find out, and directly put it into action.
Inside the mausoleum.
Sats and Quinn, who did not have the permission to excavate with them, were still moving in the long corridor behind the stone.
The scope of their current activities was limited to this corridor.
If they wanted to continue to move forward and enter the corridor, they must first obtain the consent of the excavation team.
However——
Although they could only move in the corridor, Sats and Quinn could always pay attention to the death thought deep in the mausoleum.
"Sats, is it my illusion..."
Quinn retracted his gaze from the star map mural on the top of the corridor, and turned to look at the light source deep in front, frowning and saying: "Why do I feel that the breath of 'death thought' is getting stronger."
"It's not an illusion."
Sats stared at the ancient characters on the wall and said calmly: "The breath of 'death thought' is indeed getting stronger."
"Ah, that is to say..."
Quinn was stunned and said: "Mr. Heram failed to suppress the death thought?"
"Probably."
Sats said nonchalantly.
If you can't go to the scene to check the situation, then there is no point in thinking about it here.
Even if Mr. Heram can't suppress the unknown death thought in this mausoleum, it will not have any impact on Sats.
After all, his task is to repair the mural text in this corridor, and the death thought deep in the mausoleum will obviously not radiate here.
Otherwise, when the excavation team has dealt with the trap set behind the sealing stone, the death thought should have permeated the entire mausoleum.
At this time
The main chamber deep in the mausoleum.
A high platform stands in the center of the main tomb, and a palace with a golden roof and white pillars is built on the platform.
Right above the palace is a dome inlaid with hundreds of night pearls, which looks like a sky full of stars, but the radiant green light casts a layer of quiet and cold atmosphere over the entire main tomb.
Around the high platform are ditches that are more than ten meters deep.
In the ditches, there are densely packed bones.
The death thoughts that Satz and Quinn felt in the corridor in the front of the mausoleum are now turning into black mist, sometimes faint, sometimes rich, floating above the ditches full of bones.
In front of the corridor exit, there is a wide flat land.
The members of the excavation team set up all the equipment nearby, and then they all looked at the tall figure standing in front of the cable bridge leading to the high platform.
That figure was Mr. Heram that Satz and Quinn were talking about.
He was tall, wearing a gray robe, with broad eyes, thick eyebrows, and thin lips.
What caught people's attention was the ten stacked gold rings he wore around his neck. To others, it seemed as if his neck was stretched out.
"Tumonkatan..."
Heram looked down at the ditch filled with black fog, frowning.
In this ditch, there were countless skeletons.
And each skeleton represented a life, and the emotions of unwillingness or resentment that were frozen in the last second before death.
The person who made this scene happen was Tumonkatan, the owner of the mausoleum.
A thief who truly regarded human life as worthless!
Now with their arrival, the death thoughts that Tumonkatan had brought about, which gathered countless emotions, were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Heram originally wanted to eradicate this death thought directly, but after taking action, he realized that the source of this death thought reached deep into the bones in the ditch.
It is obviously not an easy task to uproot it.
It is necessary to make adequate preparations to have the possibility of completely removing this death thought.
After realizing this, in order to ensure the progress of the excavation, Heram planned to temporarily suppress the death thought, and then let the excavation team cross the rope bridge to the Hades Palace on the high platform.
But the tenacity of this death thought exceeded Heram's expectations.
"With this level of suppression alone, safety cannot be guaranteed."
Heram's torch-like eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the black fog and fall on the countless bones in the ditch.
Indistinctly——
Heram saw that some bones were moving slightly, as if there were signs of recovery, and his brows could not help but frown deeper.
The thought of death controls the movement of the bones.
This is a common phenomenon within the tombs of the ruins.
Usually, as long as the bones are destroyed, the thoughts of death attached to them will also disappear.
In terms of threat level, it's E-level at most, which is nothing to fear.
but--
There were probably tens of thousands of skeletons piled up in the ditch in front of them.
If this black fog-like thought of death that permeates the ditch can control all the bones, then quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes...
Thinking of this possibility, Heram had a bad premonition.
Under his close attention, in just a few minutes, the movement of the mountains of bones in the ditch became more and more obvious, and they began to collide and make sounds.
"Mr. Hellam, still..."
In the excavation team, a middle-aged man couldn't help but ask.
"Shut up."
However, before he could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Hram.
"You guys need to move the things out of the side room first. You can't move here for the time being."
Heram turned back to look at the excavation team who had been waiting there for a long time, and gave the order with a serious expression.
The members of the excavation team suddenly looked at each other.
This is the first time they have encountered this situation.
Although they didn't know the reason, they still followed Hram's order and prepared to transport the antiquities found in the side room of the corridor first.
Inside the corridor.
A shadow whose aura had been "hidden" moved silently along the ceiling.
After seeing Satz and Quinn in front of them, the shadow stopped moving and froze on the ceiling.
"Both of them are telekinesis users."
Moyu used the ability of vision sharing to look at the backs of Satz and Quinn. He did not rashly control the shadows to continue deeper, but temporarily stopped and watched.
After a while.
There was a sound of movement coming from the end of the corridor, but a group of people came out carrying many boxes.
When Satz and Quinn heard the sound, they couldn't help but follow it, and their eyes were immediately attracted to the many boxes.
Presumably, the box contained the various antiquities unearthed this time.
"So fast?"
Satz and Quinn looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
The shadow standing on the ceiling quietly retreated after seeing this.
A few minutes later.
More than a dozen boxes were carried out of the tomb by excavators.
Then, escorted by many surrounding soldiers, these boxes were delivered to the largest shed in the area.
This scene was witnessed by everyone in the Elimo Thief Group hidden in the mountains and forests.
"Get ready to take action."
An erratic voice sounded, and was instantly drowned out by the sound of wind and rain.
The next second.
The nine figures standing here dispersed towards the excavation site in the distance that was as bright as day.
The troops stationed near the excavation site knew nothing about it.
In just a moment, a ray of thought power that ordinary people couldn't see soaked into a tank like water.
Then——
The tank's power unit suddenly started, and the muzzle turned, aiming at the tents and soldiers not far away.
With an ear-splitting sound, a cannonball landed in the military camp, and the violent explosion instantly involved the soldiers who had not yet reacted.
All of a sudden——
The bodies of more than a dozen soldiers were blasted into several pieces and smashed to the ground like rag bags.
The entire military camp, and even the excavators who had just left the tomb, were alarmed by the sudden explosion.
