Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 294 The Curse of the Tomb Owner
Hobert, who had wiped the Tang knife, also went to take a look. Sure enough, the figure deep in the grass was still there, but he didn't come out of the painting again.

Hobert took off the painting and turned the picture to the wall: "The effect of this sealed item is still there, I have to go back and study it carefully to understand its ability."

Now this painting will not bring danger to everyone for the time being.

So everyone turned their attention to the next section of the tomb passage.

The next section of the tomb passage became much wider, and the length was only five or six meters. At the end of the tomb passage were two tomb gates.

In the middle of the tomb passage, there are two stone statues. The stone statues are ancient knights, wearing armor and holding heavily rusted weapons.

In front of the stone statue were three skeletons. They seemed to have been cut off at the middle, or split into two pieces. They looked very messy. Only through the number of Extraordinary characteristics did they know that they were three skeletons.

Hobert held the Tang Dao to clear the way ahead. When he was about half a meter away from the stone statue, the eyes of the stone statue suddenly turned scarlet. They swung two rusty weapons and slashed at Hobert.

Hobart raised his knife to block one of the rusty weapons. He took a step forward and kicked one of the stone statues down.

Auston behind him also pulled out a sword made of fine iron, blocking the attack of another stone statue.

After Hobert kicked the stone statue down, he continued to move forward, smashing the head of the stone statue with his foot, and the two red eyes rolled away for a long time, and the stone statue completely lost its life.

He swung his knife and chopped off the head of another stone statue, which also remained motionless.

Hobert's neat offensive made the two players behind cast admiring gazes.

Then their attention was focused on the three skeletons. As long as they entered a certain range, the stone statue would attack the people in the tomb passage. It was conceivable that if they came in blindfolded, they would be easily killed by the stone statue.

Auston put away the sword, took out the wooden box, and put away the Extraordinary characteristics and two pairs of red eyes on the ground.

So far, they have harvested five extraordinary properties, one sealed item, and two pairs of extraordinary materials. It can be said that this exploration operation has already earned a lot of money.

Everyone passed the stone statue and came to the door of the tomb.

Hobert asked Alston, "What are you going to do next?"

"Of course it is to push or pull open the tomb door." The strength displayed by Hobert made Auston's tone a lot more polite.

He had already decided just now that in addition to Hobert's choice, he would also give Hobert a loot. After all, Hobert had played a huge role in the exploration process.

"In this case, you can't push or pull." Hobert raised the Tang knife and stabbed it into the tomb door.

The door of the tomb is made of bluestone, but under Hobert's sharp Tang knife, it looks like tofu. No, there is no tofu in the northern and southern continents, and it is as fragile as fresh cheese.

With his own brute force, Hobert cut an irregular hole in the door of the tomb that could allow one person to pass through.

With a slight push forward, the cut stone slab was pushed inside. Oston raised the torch and looked inside. There was a spacious tomb with the sarcophagus on the inside and a row of funerary objects on both sides. .

In addition, there is a rusty armor hanging on the wall, and an animal skin of an unidentifiable animal.

The owner of the tomb was a general in his lifetime?The armor is a personal item, and the hide is the fur of his favorite prey?

After waiting for a while, it seemed that there was no danger inside. Auston was the first to go in, holding a sword in both hands, and looked at the tomb vigilantly.

After a few seconds, he asked Lina, "Are there any spirits?"

Lina said: "No."

Everyone had just entered the main tomb one by one. Hobert took a candle out of his pocket and asked, "Where is the southeast corner?"

Several people looked at me and I looked at you. Obviously, they all lost their sense of direction in the tortuous tomb passage just now.

Hobert had no choice but to find a corner of the wall that would not get in the way, and lit the candle, which was considered as a little psychological comfort for himself.

Auston and his two subordinates first looked back at the tomb door. There was a door latch at the bottom of the tomb door, which seemed to be a mechanism.

Then Auston asked one of his subordinates to guard the gate, and he led another subordinate to inspect the funeral objects.

Hobert didn't rush forward, but stared at Lina intentionally or unintentionally.

The harvest in the tomb is not small. There are some gold and silver artifacts and gems, and a necklace. Everyone can feel the spirituality. This necklace is a magical item, but the specific ability is not clear.

The boxes in which these items are held are also antiques and fetch a good price.

Then, everyone turned their attention to the sarcophagus.

There is also a wooden box on the sarcophagus, which is not locked. Oston opened it, and saw a piece of yellowed parchment in the wooden box, on which was written in Hermes: Open my sarcophagus, disturb my sleep, You will be cursed, take other funeral objects and leave, this is the last warning.

Several people glanced at each other. In this extraordinary world, such things as curses really exist, but they don't know if the curse has expired after thousands of years have passed.
In the end, Orston said: "It's all here, how can you not see what's in the sarcophagus?"

So everyone moved the funeral objects that they had almost obtained to one side, and Auston and two subordinates took crowbars to open the coffin.

After a long time of exhaustion, the coffin was finally pried open.

Hobert also came to help, and everyone pushed the sarcophagus smoothly.

There was no strong wind blowing as everyone imagined, and vicious curses and other things happened in the tomb.

thump~
The coffin lid fell to the ground, revealing the scene inside.

To everyone's surprise, there was only a dead body in the coffin, and a thick book covered with dust.

The extraordinary characteristics of the owner of the tomb are not here, presumably he died of natural causes, and he was not buried with him at all.

Alston muttered, "Unlucky!"

At the risk of being cursed by the owner of the tomb, there was nothing valuable inside.

At this time, Hobert suddenly noticed that when the funeral objects were packed just now, it was still Auston and one of the mercenary subordinates, but when the coffin was opened, it became Auston and the two mercenary subordinates?

Look in the direction of the tomb gate, the mercenaries guarding the gate are still there!
An extra mercenary appeared out of thin air!

It's just that the light in the tomb is dim, and it's hard to see what the mercenaries guarding the gate look like.

Hobert gripped his cane tightly, ready to leave the tomb at any time.

At this time, Oston also found that there were two subordinates beside him. While taking the dusty book out of the sarcophagus, he said, "Peter, I asked you to guard the door, so you just keep guarding the door. Get out of here." go back!"

The young man called Pete didn't seem to have heard Oston's words, and showed a weird smile.

At the same time, in the direction of the tomb door, the mercenary who was guarding the door asked, "Boss, did you call me just now?"

Everyone stopped moving, and the temperature in the tomb suddenly reached freezing point.
