Vol 2 Chapter 62: Step by step
The blazing sun is hanging near the horizon, dyeing layers of flames, beautiful.
In the hot and dry Sphinx camp, Lucian felt a cool wind.
Struggling in his heart, he turned and didn't speak, before telling the Sphinx of Lucian to wake up and yelled: "Bitch scorpion, your head has grown under your xx? As soon as I see 'sacrifice' I ca n’t move my eyes and ca n’t think? I ’m not going to bathe in “sun water”! Want to become an undead? ”
The desert was barren, and the aristocrats of the Gusta Empire were reluctant to expand to the south, so the natural enemies of the Sphinx have been Scorpions since the collapse of the ancient Mesquite Empire, and most of them are related to them.
Sun water? Lucien suddenly remembered that when he was observing, the Sphinx called Fair always guarded the mausoleum, and he would grind for a while in the little stone house under the noon sun, and then went to the mausoleum with several other sphinxes. .
Before, Lucian thought that this was the place where Fair and the familiar Sphinx had gathered, and he forgot to ask about the content when he was hypnotized, so he hurried with a self-decent attitude after being scolded by a guy who looked like a sir Rush to the mausoleum, but it was counterproductive.
"Sorry, I was wrong, I'll go right away." Lucian left in panic, relaxed in his heart, no longer tangled with "suggestion", "charismatic monster", or "corruption domination" is easier to conceal Nine-level **** priest. Although it is impossible to monitor the entire camp and cannot sense small magic fluctuations, it is time for night to fall and the mausoleum guards to start shifting. This "Sphinx Chief" is likely to report to the high-level priest of the Sphinx in a while.
Inside the small stone house, a layer of liquid shining in golden yellow flows in the pond with the surrounding lines resembling the sun's rays.
Next to the pond, a strong and ferocious female sphinx picked up the strange liquid with a large gold spoon and poured it onto the lined Sphinx "gravekeeper".
Seeing a brutal and rude male Sphinx persuaded in front of this "girl", his eyes and expressions clearly revealed his admiration, Lucian could not help but mutter: "In the eyes of the male Sphinx, she Is it a stunning beauty? "
Although "only" is used to describe "beauty" as a bit odd, it is really the real idea in Lucian's heart, which is obviously a standing female lioness. Rough face. Full of golden fluffy fluff, even if it looks like a human, it belongs to the kind that has not yet evolved completely and cannot find a little beauty.
"The gap in aesthetics is really big ..." Lucian walked to the Sphinx "girl" with her teeth, and allowed her to drip the golden liquid. It was as warm as the sun in winter. There was no wet mark on the body.
"Fair. You're a little weird today." The female sphinx Sana whispered in front of Lucian, "Did you lose your courage? How dare you look at me?"
Lucian was almost taken aback again, when she showed acting skills, she hated others to say weird! Is it true that I am afraid of polluting my eyes?
"Yes. I have lost courage." Lucian simply said along the self-feeling female sphinx.
Sana grinned boldly: "I'm curious what makes reckless Fair lose his courage? Even the urge to chase a partner is gone."
Do you want to stage a classic opera that retreats and disregards the classic opera that aroused the curiosity of "beauties", but such "beauties" ... Lucian is helpless, fortunately, the great supporting actress has come up to expectations.
In the back team, a sphinx higher than Fair's half-head exclaimed: "Fell, don't waste everyone's time, don't try to get Sana's attention with strange behavior! Huh, you were still peeking last night. Sana's! "
Brother, you are really learned! Lucian, pretending to be seen in panic, tried to look at Sana in fear and expectation.
Sana suddenly realized, snorted, and ignored "Fair."
Lucien beats a senior wizard and leaves the little house weary.
…………
"Follow me into the mausoleum and don't disturb the sleep of the 'King'." A tall sphinx knotted with muscles and holding a long war halberd said harshly to "grave-keepers" such as Lucian.
"Observe, Lord Helges," the Tomb Watcher replied in unison.
Lucian lowered his head, opened his mouth, and spoke like an inconspicuous man among the many sphinxes. At the same time, he figured out the captain of the "grave-keeper". He seems to have the strength of a great knight, and among the dozens of "Grave Watchers", there are five or six formal knights, and the rest are high knight attendants like "Fair".
Do n’t look at the relative number of “knight-levels” here, because it is a branch of the guarding mausoleum, which brings together many strong men in the surrounding Sphinx tribes-except for hereditary guardians, they can be selected as “grave guards” "The" is the glory of the ordinary sphinx.
Led by Helges, Lucien looked at the huge stone bars around, stepped on the tan stairs, and entered the mausoleum.
As soon as it entered, the hot and dry desert climate immediately became gloomy and cold, as if one step from the living world to the paradise of death.
There are no traces of corrosion on the rectangular grey and dark stone bricks on the ground and walls. The inlaid gems, pearls, crystals, etc. exude a taste of coldness and silence.
This mausoleum is larger than any villa, manor or magic tower that Lucien has ever seen. It can be used by giants regardless of corridors or rooms.
Influenced by the Mesquite Empire, in the Sphinx's legend, they control the mystery of life and death, thinking that death is not the end, but the beginning of true immortality. The Pyramid's Tomb is a magical building that leads the powerful Sphinx to the immortal paradise, so it is so magnificent.
At the same time, in private legends, many sphinxes believe that their greatest kings have fallen into an eternal dormant king, and one day they will be resurrected through the pyramid mausoleum to lead the sphinx to become the world's master.
The pyramid that Lucian was about to infiltrate was the tomb of the greatest Sphinx king, Finks.
Lucien, holding a javelin, followed Hergus around the mausoleum. I saw a lot of decaying corpses hanging in the halls. Some were scorpion people, some were humans, and some were other races. After being caught, they became funeral lives.
Climbing up several floors in a row, this team of "Gravekeepers" quickly entered a hall full of countless weird symbols, and the murals were painted with scenes of the sphinx's majestic and powerful killing of other race lives.
In the hall, a black sarcophagus was placed, and when passing by, Lucien felt keenly that it contained evil and cold power!
"Is this the funeral Sphinx?" Lucian continued in doubt. "Mummy-made Sphinx 'Guardian of the Underworld'?"
Because it is sneaking into the mausoleum. Fearing that the "Crown of Sun" could cause an accident, Lucian temporarily put it away, and felt less exaggerated about the power of death.
Leaving this weird hall, Helges continued with the "Gravekeeper". After turning many corridors. Came in front of two huge stone gates.
On the stone gate. While sculpting the sun, while drawing the silver moon, it symbolizes life and death, respectively.
Even if there is no mental field. Lucian also clearly felt the terrifying death breath behind the stone gate!
This is the stone gate. After it, Rhein quietly arranged a strange magic array with the tomb itself!
In front of the stone gate, there were two big knight-level "gatemen", each of whom was much thicker than Fair.
To their side is a stone hut, where a majestic sphinx priest is sitting, praying for the resurrection of the "Great King."
How to dive in? Lucien finally figured out the layout of the mausoleum, thinking quickly, and pondering the way—Rhein, as a legendary vampire, turned into a light breeze, and entered Shimen without any difficulty. He could not provide the detailed layout and patrol route of the mausoleum. Lucien could only get part of Fair's memory.
The High Priest of the Sphinx is a high-level existence. It is easy to shock the **** priests directly. It can be used to hang down most of the powerful legends.
And, in the presence of the high priest, Lucian could not sneak attack on the "janitors", disguised as them.
"Let's return." Helges saluted the high priest and led his "Grave Watcher" team back to leave, ending the first round of patrol.
Lucien, who had no idea for a moment, could only follow it and left, and dragged to the end of the line. When she turned around the corridor, a tiny black gold stone fell on her body, and she landed gently without any sound, rolling quietly to the corner In the dark.
As he walked through the corridors, approaching the sarcophagus hall, Lucian noticed that the two sphinxes dressed as "janitors" were approaching from the opposite side.
"Go to guard the Shimen?" Lucian moved in his heart, then lowered his head, continued to follow the "Big Force", and passed by the two "janitors".
Turning a few more corridors and stepping into the weird hall, Helges whispered: "Rest here and wait for another team of guards to patrol."
As a result, the "gravekeepers" all stopped and gathered together to rest.
The hall was overcast and darts into Lucien's body like a substance, but all were blocked by the "warm feeling". Helgers seemed to hate this wicked breath of death, and took a few steps forward, standing upright outside the hall.
Seeing this, Lucian moved quietly to the corner, then sneaked into the corridor leading to Shimen.
"What are you going to do?" As soon as Lucien stepped silently into the corridor, Hergus's voice came suddenly!
He kicked on four feet and appeared beside Lucian like the wind.
Getting caught while sneaking is definitely not a pleasant thing!
Lucian raised his head, and said in panic, "Master Helges, I, my treasure, and the gems fell into the corridor in front, and I was afraid of being picked up ..."
As he said, he also showed Hergus a hole in the hole.
Her eyes were full of begging, and Hergus softened his heart for some reason, and whispered, "Go quietly and pick it up, don't alarm the high priest."
What can a "grave guardian" who does not even have an official knight level do?
Lucian "grateful", repeatedly expressing his mood in chaotic sentences, then turned around and walked lightly.
Cooperating with psychological guidance and real events, suggesting that the operation no longer needs to be done with full force, the magic fluctuations become very small!
…………
Lucien first quickened his pace, followed the two "janitors" who went forward to hand over, and then hesitated behind them until they reached a certain corridor.
The speed became very fast, Lucian hurriedly passed next to the two gatekeepers, and because he was too flustered, he gave a serious blow to the arm of a "gatekeeper".
"Stop!" Gatekeeper Askar's voice was low, suppressing anger. This lowly "grave guardian" hit himself and wanted to leave without saying anything?
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Lucian seemed to realize that he had made a mistake.
Aska was irritated by Lucian's attitude, and her eyes turned: "Walking alone in the mausoleum, your behavior is very suspicious! And hit me and say sorry?"
"I acted only with the consent of Lord Helges, and I had to pick up my gem." Lucian was like a straight fool. "Just hit, I'm sorry enough!"
Azkar growled angrily: "What qualifications does Helges have? Kneel down and apologize!"
"I'm under Hercules, and his orders are qualifications! I've said I'm sorry and I won't apologize again!" Lucian answered with a trembling body, but still stiffened A Skar quarreled with him a few more times, and saw that he was full of "provocation", "hit me, hit me, hit me if you have the ability," regardless of his tone or movement. The fist teaches this **** hybrid scorpion.
"Aska, wait a minute, there is a surveillance array here, be careful to be seen by the high priest." Aska's companion Ink quietly pointed to the corner in front, "Go there, you can't see there."
Ascar laughed sullenly and mentioned Lucian: "I want you to know what is inferiority!"
"Yes, I'm sorry ..." Lucian seemed startled.
Askar chuckled with satisfaction, turned Lucian over the corner, and punched the disgusting hybrid scorpion.
Alas, Askar felt only severe pain in his abdomen, his eyes moved blankly, and he saw a fist flickering slightly again.
The scream was suppressed in the throat, blurred, and Aska's eyes darkened, and she passed out.
Inker on the other side heard banging and murmuring screams from the opposite side, shook his head, Asca was really violent!
After a while, Inker saw Aska walk back with a smile, and asked curiously, "What?"
"Haha, I've beaten the **** even his mother!" Askar "suddenly proud."
"What did you just do?" Suddenly, the voice of the high priest came from the end of the corridor! (To be continued ...)
