Reborn as a demon, I became a totem as a full-time mage

Chapter 38
The overall structure of this building is indeed a pyramid shape with a square platform as the Earth Storm Bear said.

Although it covers a large area, it is not very high. It is equivalent to seven or eight floors in the human world. It is a relatively flat pyramid configuration.

Most of the building is hidden within the cave wall, with only the front door standing proudly.

But even the interior is entirely made of stone bricks cut from black gold stone, and no corners are cut.

Apparently, the ground was dug through before the construction was successful.

But in fact there is not just one building here.

In Wang Yu's eyes, there was a small building behind the pyramid.

That building is located in another cave, bordering this ancient tomb.

It was built in a stepped shape, like a modern tiered structure, and looked like the ruins of some Western temple.

Although the temple is small, it has a courtyard, an outpost tower, etc., but unfortunately none of them are well preserved.

At this time, there were only dilapidated and collapsed beams and pillars, most of the ancient hall was exposed, and an overgrown altar that was almost completely covered in vegetation.

Also, this place is so close to the underground river, and they are just exposed to the outside, without even a roof.

It's good to be able to leave something like this in such a humid environment.

"Huo, it's interesting. It seems that the Earth Fury Bear only entered the first half of the building.

System, check in detail what this is.

By the way, exchange them for two high-power flashlights for me, the kind that blind people without paying for their lives. "

Wang Yu ordered.

"No, host, the first half of this building is undoubtedly an ancient tomb.

It also matches the era and is the style of the Qin and Han Dynasties.

At that time, almost all tombs were covered with buckets, similar to a bucket used for measuring rice turned over and covered on top.

There are sharp edges on all four sides, and a small square platform at the top, somewhat like an Egyptian pyramid.

As for the building at the back, which is obviously more Western-style, it is obviously a smaller version of the temple.

It seems to have a shadow of the Sunset Temple, and it should have something to do with the evil temple in Egypt.

This is what I expected, after all, the place of origin of Medusa is over there.

But the problem is that it is normal for these two to be separated, but together they are a bit nondescript.

And the situation seems to be even more complicated. Take a look at what is written on the plaque on the tomb door at the front? "

"What's written? Let me see. Huh??? Fa-tang-si?!!
Temple?Is this a temple? ! !Isn't this a tomb? Wang Yu frowned and exclaimed.

"Well, this is where I said the situation is complicated.

As we all know, temples are used in this world in addition to worshiping ghosts and gods, paying homage to ancestors, preaching scriptures, etc.

Its greatest function is to be used to suppress something.

And it can be built underground, and it has something to do with Medusa and the evil temple.

There is no doubt that it is the latter. "The system said seriously.

"It's nothing, the Earth Fury Bear escaped safely even though it was so rampant.

Maybe the person suppressing it inside is the snake-haired scorpion king Medusa.

Now even his physical body has been turned into powder. It is estimated that even if there is danger, it will have been corroded by time. "Wang Yu thought for a moment, scratched his head and responded.

"Maybe, forget it, you can't see much from the outside. Let's wait until we get inside."

"Well, that makes sense, stupid bear, let's go."

Then Wang Yu and the Earthly Storm Bear entered the interior of the ancient tomb through the big hole next to the tomb door.

At this time, under the illumination of a head-mounted high-power flashlight, the originally dark tomb was as bright as day.

Those little animals that like dark environments fled out of their habitats after being exposed to the strong light.

The location they were in now looked like a large corridor.

The bricks on the tomb walls around the corridor are either engraved with exquisite patterns and texts, or painted with murals.

Although they are all severely corroded, some of the meanings of Egyptian hieroglyphs and Oriental seal scripts can be seen on them.

What is surprising is that the bottom of the tomb is also divided into two stepped layers.

The height difference is about three to five meters, and various pottery artifacts are scattered everywhere.

Including pottery ear cups, pottery chicken figurines, pottery head figurines, pottery pattern seals, round bottom jars, bowls, steamers, sub-shaped pots, etc.

However, these objects have also become dilapidated due to corrosion, and almost none of them is complete.

"If these things are well preserved, they should be sold for a lot of money in the human world." Wang Yu thought with regret on his face.

There are several stone doors on both sides of the passage, obviously leading to some small rooms.

These small rooms are quite reasonable for a human's petite body.

But if it were a demon, it would be a bit miniscule.

It’s no wonder that the Earth-Bearing Bear couldn’t explore this place carefully at first.

Unfortunately, according to Wang Yu's golden eyes, these small rooms were basically empty.

Even if there are things, they are just some stone benches, stone tables, snakes, ants, rats and insects, and there is no point in going in to explore.

The two demons continued to move forward. This passage of less than 100 meters soon reached the end, and at this time, a small staircase appeared in front of them.Going down this staircase is a sub-shaped tomb.

There is a tomb passage in the southeast, northwest and northwest of the tomb, like a crossroads intersection, pointing to different places.

However, only the easternmost tomb passage is relatively wide, and can barely accommodate the passage of the earth storm bear.

Wang Yu wrote down this location and decided to come back and explore the rest of the place after coming out of the room where the body of Medusa, the Scorpion Lord, was buried.

The Geomaniac Bear continued to clear the path ahead. With the flashlight, it finally knew which path it had taken.

They continued to move forward along the tomb passage on the east side. After a while, there was a big straight turn to the right in front of them, and the two demons turned and continued to move forward.

Finally, we came to a large room that was unprecedentedly spacious.

Wang Yu looked up and found that the sun, moon and stars were engraved on the top of the tomb, and the sky was full of stars.

Judging from its height, this should be the center of the tomb.

The first thing that caught Wang Yu's eyes was a whole stone tablet standing in the center of the room.

The stone tablet is about three meters wide and eight meters high, and is covered with ancient characters.

Unfortunately, these words were also severely corroded, and even the system could not decipher them.

There are some small stone slabs around this stone tablet, arranged in a pattern similar to the Eight Diagrams.

The outer ones are smaller, and there are some inexplicable strange lines carved on them.

There are 16 extinguished ever-burning lanterns placed around the tomb, and a four-legged square tripod is placed in each of the four corners.

The four square tripods echo the four clearest and brightest stars above the head.

On the east and west sides of the tomb, two relatively wide passages appeared again.

When the Earth Storm Bear saw this, he suddenly slapped his forehead, pointed at the passage to the west and shouted:

"Boss, I remember, entering from there should be the room with the corpse of Medusa, the gorgon!"

"Arrived so soon? Let's go then."

Soon Wang Yu saw the snake-haired scorpion king Medusa who had been dead for many years.

As the Earthly Violent Bear said, the huge body of his corpse had all turned into powder.

However, these powders still accumulate into a fixed shape.

You can also see the rough outline of the snake-haired scorpion king Medusa from them.

It was obvious that nothing had ever visited this place before.

Although Medusa's corpse had turned into powder, there was still an inexplicable sense of oppression on it.

The moment Wang Yu saw it, the trace of Medusa blood in his body trembled slightly unconsciously, as if greeting the former owner.

"I'm talking about the system, tell me why this Medusa corpse wasn't put in a coffin or something like that.

Just put it in a room like this, and you're not afraid of being bitten by insects? Wang Yu asked curiously.

"I don't know, maybe they don't have this custom.

And brother, are you thinking too much? What kind of insect dares to bite the body of a great monarch?

If this monarch hadn't been dead for thousands of years, believe it or not, no living being would dare to step within a thousand meters of this ancient tomb. "The system replied speechlessly.

"Uh-huh, that makes sense.

By the way, do you see anything unusual?I looked around for a long time with my golden eyes open, but couldn't find anything interesting.

Is there really nothing in this ancient tomb except the corpse of Medusa? Wang Yu asked with a frown.

"Tsk, that's strange. I can't find anything. Could it be that we really came here in vain?

What kind of Temple is this? Is it really just used to suppress Medusa, the snake-haired scorpion king? "The system responded in confusion.

Compared with Wang Yu's Golden Eyes, its detection function is naturally much more powerful.

Even the rooms that Wang Yu didn't enter had been scanned several times, but unfortunately, nothing was found.

"Maybe, maybe there was something magical here before, but with Medusa's death, everything disappeared.

Is there anything found in the small temple at the back? Can you detect it? "

"Yes, but there is nothing there. It is directly exposed on the surface, and even if there is anything there, it has been completely corroded."

"Oh, forget it, it's nothing, it's nothing. Being able to get the Eyes of Medusa before was already a big gain."

Wang Yu sighed helplessly when he heard the system's response, and said to the curious Earth Fury Bears in front of him:
"Okay, don't look around. There's nothing interesting here anymore. Let's go."

Hearing this, the earth-violent bear nodded and followed Wang Yu back the same way.

As for what he said before about taking away the powder turned into a lot of Medusa corpses, it was just a joke.

After all, I got a lot of benefits from them. How could I really do such a bastard thing of digging up human corpses?

But after all, I've come here, and I can't really go back empty-handed no matter what.

When Wang Yu returned to the large room in the center of the ancient tomb.

He casually took away the four-legged statues placed around him.

These things should be able to be sold for some money in the human world.

Just think of it as him preparing for future start-up funds.
