Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

A sufficiently spacious road, with countless wall lamps installed on the stone walls on both sides, the faint blue flame is burning quietly, as if it has never changed, rendering a strange and terrifying atmosphere.

On both sides of the road, at intervals of a short distance, you can see a pile of rusty and discarded armor weapons, and scattered piles of dry soil.

Joyce could imagine such a scenario.

Loyal soldiers are sealed in the soil. After a long period of evolution, their lives have long since dissipated, and they escaped from the seal for some reason, but they still insist on guarding this underground palace...

Until the stone gate was opened from the outside, these long-dead soldiers rushed to the enemy fearlessly, preventing the enemy from breaking in...

Joyce expressed his judgment: "This is a tomb."

"I think so too." Robinson's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing something: "The living corpses and ghosts just now were obviously impregnated by the power of the dead... The fact that that power can survive to this day shows that the sequence of the masters of the tomb must be Not low……"

In the constant communication between the two, the road under their feet slowly came to an end, and they did not encounter any danger again, and the calmness made people palpitate.

It was an empty hall, and a sarcophagus was placed in the center of the hall, but the lid was open.

At the bottom of the sarcophagus, a carved lifelike feathered snake tightly surrounds it, and the head of the snake is facing the inside of the sarcophagus.

As if feeling the breath of a stranger breaking in, a snake head in an illusory state slowly lifted up, its deep eyes seemed to be connected to hell, cold, crazy, chaotic...

"careful."

The two exclaimed at the same time, avoiding the gaze cast by the Feathered Serpent, thus avoiding the ending where their bodies gradually became stiff.

In the spiritual vision state, it was discovered that although the stone snake was not moving, an illusory feathered snake was roaring upwards, exuding a icy aura.

Then, the feathered snake's bloody mouth opened wide, and continuous transparent shadows flew out of it, as if its body was connected to the underworld.

The "Gatekeeper" of Sequence Five...Joyce guessed, then raised his right hand, activated "Star Reaching", and successfully stole two Extraordinary abilities.

The "language of the dead" can bypass the protection of the flesh and blood, communicate and even drive the spirit body.

The spirit here has no body, so it should be more convenient to communicate... Joyce thought so, he opened his mouth and made a sound that he didn't understand at all.

But this is not the case. The ghost that flew out of the feathered snake's mouth paused briefly, as if hesitating for something... Two seconds later, a small half of the ghosts accepted Joyce's driving, and more ghosts continued to attack the two .

However, this pause is not useless.

Robinson on the other side used the spells attached to the "Sun Cloak", "Summon Holy Light" and "Bright Fire", and at the same time emitted a "Sun Halo" to delay the ghost's action.

The two successfully dealt with the first wave of Ru Chao's offensive, but before they could catch their breath, the second wave came immediately.

He uttered the "Words of the Dead" again, ordering himself to drive the successful ghost towards his former companion, and the two began to bite violently... Joyce came to Robinson in a flash, and said quickly:

"The feathered snake can't leave the coffin too far, as long as the snake-shaped stone sculpture attached to it is smashed, it will immediately return to the underworld."

"Eye of Death", through observation, can find the weaknesses of unfamiliar undead creatures and creatures of the spirit world.

It was precisely because of this that Joyce was able to discover the opponent's weakness in such a short period of time.

Robinson killed the invading ghost with the spell of the sun domain, and asked anxiously, "But how do we get there?"

This feathered snake is obviously not a normal "gatekeeper". Its attack method is very simple, but it is effective enough. The ghosts in its body seem to be endless, enough to prevent the intruding enemy from breaking through such a tight attack net and approach the sarcophagus.

However, since Joyce proposed this solution, he naturally had a draft in his heart. He asked:

"I need you to block all the ghosts for three seconds, can you do it?"

Robinson thought quickly in his mind and made a judgment: "Yes."

"But if you don't succeed, I can only be forced to exit the hall, and you will be attacked by all the ghosts alone."

The "notarization" between the two is enough to prove that each other is trustworthy, Joyce did not have time to hesitate, and immediately responded:

"Now."

While speaking, he took down "Zhaixing" and threw it on the ground.

As a result of doing so, the ghosts who were killing each other quickly changed their targets, and Robinson did not know what method he used to attract all the ghosts to him, but it seemed to be in danger.

Joyce didn't stop. After taking "Reaching the Stars", the abilities of other magical items quickly recovered, including the "Magician's Ring" on his left hand.

I saw a series of flames flashing, forming a straight line, the end point leading to the sarcophagus in the center of the hall.

A figure suddenly appeared here, and Joyce raised his hands high, holding the "Blade of Oath"... the "Blade of Oath" in the shape of a giant hammer.

Seeing this, the Feathered Serpent in the illusory state entangled and rushed towards Joyce, trying to swallow him.

Unfortunately, it's a bit late.

The sledgehammer hit the stone snake, making a "rumbling" sound, and the statue shattered into several pieces.

Accompanied by it, the Feathered Serpent let out a hiss of unknown meaning, and the pain and anger contained in it could be vaguely heard, which quickly dissipated into nothingness.

Joyce flashed back to Robinson again, picked up the "star picker", and helped him destroy the remaining ghosts.

The ghost that lost its owner became much weaker, like a rootless weed, and was quickly purified.

Robinson breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was very thankful that he met Joyce. This guy is frighteningly strong... No, it should be said that he is frighteningly rich!

That "Nightmare Necklace", the magical item with the "Fire Thief" ability, "Flash of Flame", and that sledgehammer...

This guy can't be the real son of a demigod...

"Is there a question?" Joyce asked, noticing the other's trance.

Robinson quickly waved his hand: "It's nothing, the danger has passed, and the next step is to check the precious time of the harvest."

"Being able to arrange such strong protective measures, the owner of the tomb is likely to be a high-sequence powerhouse..."

However, when he saw the situation in the sarcophagus, the thoughts in his mouth suddenly stopped, because there was no corpse in it.

It's not a waste of money, the bottom of the coffin is covered with a layer of gold ornaments, which looks quite old and should be worth a lot.

"What about Extraordinary characteristics? What about mystical items? Why are there nothing?"

Robinson rummaged wildly, and at the same time murmured, but unfortunately there was only gold...

"Look at the murals on this wall."

Joyce stood in front of the hall wall and said to the disappointed Robinson.
