"Shh...shh..."
The fallen leaves piled up on the ground, like a thick carpet, and felt very soft when you stepped on them.
Excluding the Skeleton King, the group of seven, led by Sammeque, walked through this misty valley.
The tomb has six entrances, but only one of them is correct.
The group split up, with Qingniao leading another team and entering one of the entrances first.
"Xuefeng, choose a path," Sangmaik said expressionlessly.
“Let’s use this entrance in front of us,” Wang Xuefeng replied.
“Okay, let’s go.” Sangmaikkui nodded.
Seeing this, everyone naturally had no objections.
Even if they had their own thoughts, they wouldn't be so tactless as to say them at this time.
Rose stayed close to Xiao He, afraid of falling behind. The dwarf continued to direct the Skeleton King to clear the way, while the two cloaked swordsmen at the rear remained responsible for covering the rear.
Xiao He quietly took the robot Beibei out and put it in his pocket, while simultaneously activating the identification device and establishing a remote connection with Yang Xing.
[Yang Xing: Wait a minute, I'll connect you to the database.]
Since Wang Xuefeng "swept away" the Nobel Committee, Yang Xing's database has been greatly enriched, and it is now easy for him to retrieve some information for Xiao He.
Yang Xing: Medusa is something...
Yang Xing: There really is!
[Xiao He: How so? Roughly what level?]
[Yang Xing: Nobody records this! Probably at least god-level!]
[Yang Xing: Sigh, the main problem is that that era was too old, and the accuracy of many reports couldn't be guaranteed.]
[Yang Xing: Putting everything else aside, the fact that there hasn't been a single word about him for ten thousand years makes this guy anything but simple!]
While exchanging words with Yang Xing, Xiao He subtly observed Sang Mai Kui. His expression was neither stern nor relaxed.
Compared to the Skeleton King in front, Medusa is clearly not in the same league.
The latter's strength must far surpass that of the former.
However, the former has no eyes, which in a sense means it has no weaknesses; all it has is being overwhelmed in strength.
[Yang Xing: Medusa's gaze is a curse, a force that develops from the soul to the body, a force that moves from the ethereal to the tangible, and it is quite troublesome to deal with.]
Yang Xing: The principle is very simple. The eyes are the windows to the soul. When your souls collide, the power of the curse will instantly invade your body.
Yang Xing: Generally speaking, there's no way to break this; we can only try to avoid it.
[Yang Xing: No! It's something we absolutely must avoid!!]
[Xiao He: Are Xuefeng's eyes alright?]
Yang Xing: Theoretically, it's possible, but I wouldn't recommend he take the risk, since there's no turning back if he fails.
Xiao He: Okay, I understand.
"Do you still have the blindfold you used to wear?" Xiao He turned to ask Wang Xuefeng.
"exist."
"Take it out and put it on."
"good."
The latter did not ask why at all.
The valley grew deeper and deeper, and the sky above was completely obscured by dense foliage.
According to the map given by the Serpent People, one of the entrance markers is just ahead.
More and more ancient trees blocked their path, but the Skeleton King smashed them all with his sharp claws. Only the gnarled roots remained, covered in thick moss, like emerald snakes.
Sunlight cannot penetrate directly into the valley; it can only filter through layers of leaves, providing a faint ray of light to this deep valley.
Of the group, only Wang Xuefeng, besides the Skeleton King, didn't need light.
Sang Maiqui saw that he had his eyes covered but didn't say anything, while Rose looked surprised. Fortunately, Xiao He held his hand, otherwise she might have asked him on the spot.
“Blindfolding myself wouldn’t be a bad idea, but then I wouldn’t be able to see where I’m going,” Rose shook her head and sighed inwardly.
The last giant tree fell, and an ancient tombstone appeared before everyone.
According to the translation system, the text above means "the place where Queen Medusa sleeps".
Xiao He didn't know if every entrance was written this way, or if it was only written this way here, but as the saying goes, "Since you're here, make the best of it," so she calmly drew her sword.
At the same time, Sangmaik also gripped the longsword in his hand.
As everyone gazed at the stone tablet, their expressions grew solemn.
"Xuefeng, find a way to open it," Sangmaik said.
"yes."
Wang Xuefeng responded casually, then quietly stepped forward.
Rose stared wide-eyed at his movements, as if she couldn't believe he had actually blindfolded himself.
The dwarf, who had retreated to the side, took off his hat and, taking advantage of his thick beard, subtly curled his lip.
Only the last two swordsmen showed no unusual behavior from beginning to end, as if they were two typical tools.
"Snap!"
A sound of stones splitting rang out, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
The tombstone was split in two, like an elevator door that had malfunctioned and opened, with a dark "pit" in the middle leading straight down to the ground.
"Xuefeng, you go down first," Sangmaikui said calmly.
"yes."
Wang Xuefeng seemed used to it and stepped inside without saying a word.
Sammeque didn't stop Xiao He from following closely behind. Only after Rose, the dwarf, and the Skeleton King had all entered did he leisurely follow them down.
The two swordsmen behind were still responsible for covering the rear. After entering, they set up a barrier to cover the wide-open door behind them.
