I shook my head, rejecting the girl's idea.
If we were to leave now, everyone, including the fat man and everyone else in the mural, would launch a full-scale attack on us.
That's undeniable. After all, when we first tried to get out, they all took care of it immediately, and it seemed like their first priority was to keep me trapped inside.
After all, this secret room, or rather this coffin, has been untouched by any living person for who knows how long.
Now that we've come in, it's probably a great privilege for them.
How could they possibly let us go so easily?
But what puzzles me now is, how could this fat man learn the skills of an ancient person just by drinking their blood?
As the girl said, she would become an ancient person, but I think that's unlikely.
After all, the fat guy has his own unique characteristics, such as his suit and his ability to smash the ground.
Whether it's ancient people or anyone else in other murals.
No matter how lifelike these figures are, they are nothing more than a piece of wall, a bit of earth and stone, and some paint in this mural.
So no matter how exquisite it is, I think it can only be the result of the maker's ingenuity.
However, he used this ingenuity for crooked and unethical purposes.
I think, at least from the perspective of the designer of this secret room, it's impossible for him to design two people, especially an ancient figure in the center of a mural and an inconspicuous little toad, as the same person...
Before I could even speak to the girl, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the cane not far away.
Oh no... Oh my god, I completely forgot about this!
The cane that I threw away not far from the remains of the ancients still has a slight luster!
Wait a minute, I remember when I used it to throw at that fat guy, the fat guy basically wore away all its shine.
Or perhaps he was going out to confront the fat man; the two of them were showing off to each other.
Now it has even started to show a little luster again, and it seems to have risen up on its own!
I watched as the patterns on it slowly began to climb up the entire staff.
Even the small dents and scratches that appeared when it was first brought here are now slowly healing.
Even more strangely, the cane began to tremble slightly in place.
Holy crap.
No way?
"Master, this walking stick..."
Lei Jijian's tone clearly indicated that he wanted to go up and retrieve the item.
I know this thing is extremely important right now, but I'm afraid that if I pick it up, that fat guy will come after us in a frenzy.
What happened next was even stranger. As if attracted by something, the cane moved silently less than a meter toward the fat man!
Holy crap...
"That walking stick..."
I quickly pointed it out to the girl, while my heart was pounding.
"How did it light up by itself, and even start moving!"
The fat man stopped and slowly turned around, his huge head and eyes staring at the cane.
I looked into his eyes, which were filled with black and gray blood vessels tinged with red; they looked terrifying.
I suspect that before this guy truly becomes an ancient person, or rather, learns all the ancient people's methods, he needs to overcome all obstacles.
One of the most important things is the spine bone that the ancients still have in this secret room, which is this walking stick.
The guy swallowed again, and the sound of the stone falling, which had briefly disappeared earlier, came back.
Every time this guy swallows hard, it's usually nothing good. It looks like he's trying to snatch it away.
However, this time, after a moment, he didn't show his usual exposed side, but rather seemed to be confirming something.
This thing actually slowly moved towards the direction of the cane!
Moreover, I could clearly see that every time the fat man took a step, the trembling of the cane became even more intense.
And the sheen on it is even brighter.
Some of the lines on the cane even slowly moved towards the fat man!
"Could it be that the fat man absorbed the last bit of blood from the ancients? Now even he can sense the relics of the ancients, after all, this is a bone left behind by the ancients."
The girl's voice trembled, and she gripped my hand tightly. Seeing her like this, I felt a pang of sadness.
Not only that, I noticed that the girl's legs were trembling slightly, as if the effects of the contract on her were becoming even stronger.
Damn it, in this state, I probably won't be able to break the contract I'm under.
Fortunately, during the time that the fat guy and I were fighting, the contracts we made didn't have any impact on us.
Seeing the fat men drawn to each other, and the cane, a cold sweat broke out on my back.
"After he threw away the cane, he only became a little slower..."
But now it can activate this cane.
He just wanted to pick up that cane!
I spoke up, and the girl shrank back behind me in a panic.
I could clearly feel that the girl was trembling even more violently now.
"If this guy gets his hands on the cane, I'm afraid he'll learn everything from the ancients, and then we'll be even less able to fight back."
Moreover, we still can't get into that crevice!
And I also looked at the mural.
The light filtering through the crack in the mural is now even dimmer.
The problem is that after the fat man smashed the wall, the gaps went from one to two. These two gaps are there, one on the left and one on the right, and they are almost identical.
This situation puts us in a very difficult position!
Even if we manage to hold this fat guy back temporarily, we won't have enough time to find the right exit!
At that moment, a bold idea popped into my head.
It's very likely that these two are the same, with the same exit that can take us out!
Otherwise, there wouldn't be any other exit from this secret room.
It might just be that mural, that mysterious mural that couldn't be more numerous!
I took a look, and indeed, the stone platform in the middle of this area doesn't seem to have any mechanisms.
The only thing that puzzles me is how that blue armor outfit suddenly disappeared from near the stone platform.
At that moment, I saw the mural again, my eyes carefully examining the gaps.
Sure enough, the people in the mural resumed their previous obstructive behavior.
"die!"
