Chapter 60 Chapter 60 From shock to certainty, and then to greed...
A faint trace of irony crossed that gaunt, delicate, and paper-white face. "After all, the symbol of angels on earth is also 'exorcism.'"
Exorcise evil spirits, exorcise evil spirits. The "evil" here naturally refers to the creatures in hell.
Lin Miaofu looked at the cracked road in the center of the angel relief again. In the quietness of the night, it looked like a hungry mouth waiting for its prey to fall into the trap.
Mammon raised the corners of his lips slightly, smiling uninhibitedly: "Miss Lin, don't worry. Before those things get close to you, we will definitely have played with them... and eliminated them."
He inadvertently straightened his chest, as if to show how strong he was, but the outline of his muscles became clearer and the tender red cinnabar became more distinct.
When a certain demon said that she would be "killed" by An Wei, her attitude was not the same as it is now.
Become a face.
Lin Miao refused to admit that she was seduced.
An Wei was so irritated by those artificial little tricks that his eyes almost spewed hellfire. Just as he was about to speak, Beelzebub raised his hand, and a gray halo spread out like water waves, and rushed into the passage like a dragon.
The mottled stone road below was illuminated, and the dark green moss and weeds on the mountain wall were blocked outside the light shield.
He casually handed Lin Miao a handkerchief soaked in mint juice, his gray eyes quiet, "It's clean. It's for you."
An Wei: “…”
Stealing the house is always unexpected and hard to guard against.
"...Thank you." The stench of decay and mold was unpleasant. Lin Miao took it and covered her mouth and nose with it. She cast the "All Things Stop War" shield on herself and followed Mammon into the passage.
The mechanisms from the stone wall above were blocked one by one by Beelzebub's light shield, and the traps on the ground were solved by Mammon who cleared the way.
The white-haired devil's right hand sometimes spun a golden coin, sometimes coiled a huge black jade walnut, using the infinite shadows of the coin to block the arrows shooting left and right, and using the walnut to pave a flat road above the knife spikes and traps, with a relaxed and leisurely look, just like strolling around.
Thinking of the embarrassing situation she and Errol encountered when exploring the dark room of Capet Manor, Lin Miao felt a pang of pain in her teeth, thinking that the equipped cheat monster was indeed playing a cracked version of the game.
The passage became narrower as they went deeper, gradually only allowing one person to pass sideways; the stone walls on both sides protruded towards the middle, and seemed to have traces of slight splicing, as if the stone had been filled in again after being chiseled out.
"It's a light spell." An Wei said, "There are remnants of spiritual power here."
Lin Miao raised an eyebrow: "It seems that someone wants to make the tomb a secret room that only he can enter."
After the man and three demons slowly turned a sharp corner, Lin Miao caught a glimpse of the passage ahead becoming wider; however, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, Mammon suddenly stopped.
She looked over the demon's shoulder and saw a blue-gray stone wall standing not far away. The corners of the wall were tightly connected, blocking the way and not even the wind could get in.
After a few moments of silence, Beelzebub raised his eyelids slightly and spoke slowly, "Behind this wall should be the tomb."
The fluorescent color in the third eye grew stronger, like a warning. "My eyes... sensed the demonic aura within."
…Magic is like a crutch in the human world, it can be used wherever it is needed.
This famous quote that was used as a joke on the Internet in his previous life suddenly popped up in Lin Miao's mind. After seeing the three demons showing uncontrollable smiles at the same time, he realized that he had actually said what was in his heart.
"No problem." Mammon crossed his arms, his Adam's apple moving slightly. "I actually hope that those self-proclaimed pure and noble Illuminati in the world can learn to walk independently without relying on Hell."
"I will eliminate all those who have evil intentions towards the Devil and Hell." An Wei's eyes were like sticky dew on a vine, constantly lingering on Lin Miao, and his light words contained endless hostility.
...pretending to be loyal and showing off at every opportunity!!
Mammon gnashed his teeth silently. He wanted to bring up Reese and Errol to mock him, but when he saw Lin Miao had already squatted down to observe carefully, he had to give up.
The ground was covered with dust, and it was obvious that no one had set foot on it for a long time; however, many irregularly distributed depressions in a strange arrangement could still be seen.
"These pits... I think they should be the mechanism to open the tomb door." Lin Miao paused and looked up at Beelzebub. "Maybe they can reveal the depth of the demonic energy attached to the pits?"
Beelzebub followed his instructions and closed his normal eyes, leaving only his green pupils to capture the demonic aura. After a moment, he opened his eyes and nodded to Lin Miao.
"Tell me the places with the deepest demonic energy in order," Lin Miao stood up, flexed his wrist, and showed an eager expression, "I'll open the door."
"no!"
At this time, Anwei and Mammon had the same opinion. The big dog stood in front with his arms crossed, anxious to stop the general from taking the risk alone.
"Miao Miao, let me go." He spoke quickly, "You are still human, the mechanism in the tomb may hurt you——"
"Let him go." Mammon followed closely behind, his voice very deep, "Ms. Lin, if you have a dog, you have to make full use of it."
Lin Miao placed a finger on An Wei's forearm, which was bulging with blue veins, and gently pushed it outwards; the demon was afraid of breaking the fragile human finger bones, so he had to withdraw his hand with her feather-like strength.
The human lady narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Trust me. Lord Beelzebub does this very well, right?"
"..." Facing the vicious gazes of his colleagues who wanted to eat him alive, the pale and skinny devil pursed his lips and nodded slightly.
So the general went out to fight bravely.
"Left, upper left, forward, right..."
Beelzebub calmly reported his location. The two demons looked nervous, ready to help at any time. However, the general himself was calm and composed, walking steadily towards the stone wall step by step.
When he stepped on the last depression, a faint "click" sound came from the stone wall, and a dull friction sound echoed in the air, and the surface seemed to be cracking.
Lin Miao was concentrating her attention on the stone wall in front of her, but she didn't expect that at this moment, suddenly, the top of the space where she was was split open with a loud bang, and a huge rock weighing a thousand pounds fell towards her!
“Be careful!!!!”
Three different magical powers rushed towards the boulder, but the formation quietly operating in the tomb was triggered and started to operate, changing the direction of those forces, causing them to collide in the air and actually cancel out most of each other!
The boulders were still falling, but human arms were powerless against nature. How could carrying rice be compared to carrying stones?
Just as their eyes were about to burst out in anger, they saw the human girl showing no fear, kneeling straight and holding one hand up.
The next second, the boulder stopped steadily in the center of her palm, motionless.
Anwei, Mammon, and Beelzebub: "..."
Lin Miao slowly put down the boulder, looking calm, but in his mind he kept saying "damn" and was extremely impressed by his own foresight.
Fortunately, she was smart enough to keep the panel in her head open and activated the Hercules skill early on, so she was able to turn the tide at such a critical moment and avoid the bad ending of being crushed to death by the boulder!
Lin Miao, immersed in her joy, did not notice the expressions of the three demons. Perhaps she had become accustomed to An Wei's dark obsession, so she missed the opportunity to observe them.
Mammon and Beelzebub's expressions changed from shock to certainty, then to greed and piety, and even to fanatical eyes.
…
The stone wall was finally pushed completely to both sides, and a circular tomb chamber appeared in front of Lin Miao.
The tomb chamber is about twenty meters in diameter and five meters high. The top is dome-shaped and inlaid with transparent crystals.
There is a bright magic circle engraved in the center of the ground, which contains a strong spiritual energy.
The demons that followed Lin Miao in paled instantly. Anwei was fine in his original form, but Beelzebub and Mammon, transformed by magic, could barely maintain their physical form.
"It's a purification array." Beelzebub frowned. "A very high level of purification."
"A purification array of this magnitude is targeting a tremendous amount of resentment," Mammon said with a grim expression. "Is it the human royal family or mutant monsters buried here?!"
"We'll know soon," Lin Miao said calmly, "Lord An Wei, find the tomb corresponding to Queen Barbara."
The big dog swung out a magical power that looked like a red line, and after a few breaths it locked onto the room where the queen's body was placed.
As soon as he stepped in, the gorgeous coffin placed on the middle stone platform attracted Lin Miao's attention.
Made of ebony, edged in gold, its surface is carved with intricate vine patterns. The surrounding walls are alternately carved with royal coats of arms and portraits of divine angels, creating an eerie harmony.
"This coffin is very suitable for 'suppressing evil thoughts,'" An Wei said meaningfully. "The human king is really... good to his wife."
Lin Miao curled her lips, her eyes devoid of smiles. "That's right. While alive, I can enjoy wealth and splendor in the palace, and after death, I can lie in this golden 'protective shield' that wards off evil spirits and suppresses evil."
She walked around the coffin and found that the gaps in the coffin lid were covered with densely packed talismans of light, and many of the talisman papers had traces of burning on the edges.
"...Open the coffin." Lin Miao looked at the three demons, "Thank you for your help, my lords."
Mammon twisted his wrist, his knuckles cracking. "The seal of light on this coffin is too heavy. Once it's opened, the scene inside won't be optimistic... Miss Lin, please stand further away."
He and An Wei stood at one end of the coffin, each forming a hand formation. Beelzebub stood beside Lin Miao, his right hand slightly raised, ready to respond to any possible danger.
Mammon counted to three, and the two demons simultaneously cast a spell at the talismans. The moment the talismans came into contact with the black beam, they ignited with black fire, curled up into charred, withered leaves, and peeled off the coffin.
The heavy coffin lid made a harsh friction sound and was slowly lifted.
Just as the gap expanded to half the width of a palm, a thick black mist gushed out from the coffin like a living thing!
Lin Miao did not retreat. He focused and saw that the black fog was twisting and deforming in the air, piecing together a painful human face. The mouth opened and closed as if screaming silently, and then quickly dissipated.
The temperature in the tomb dropped sharply.
"...evil thoughts." Beelzebub muttered.
When the black fog completely dissipated, the scene inside the coffin was revealed, which was horrifying.
The queen's body was surprisingly well preserved, as if she was just sleeping, but her facial expression was extremely distorted.
Her eyes were wide open, and her eyeballs were covered with burst blood vessels; the veins on her forehead were bulging, as if she had experienced extreme pain or fear before death.
The strangest thing was that even after nearly ten years of death, wisps of black energy still lingered in her seven orifices. Whenever the black energy emerged from her nostrils or ear canals, her corpse would twitch slightly, as if it were alive.
"This is……"
