Chapter 388: Just the Eighteen Princes

The Corpse Beast bus only connects the major cities in the world of Faerun, so after Li Zhongren and others left the Town of Shining Gold, they had to walk after taking the bus for a while.

However, Li Zhongre has established a new relationship with Blue Star, so Blue Star provided him with a floating off-road RV.

Therefore, this expedition was not so embarrassing.

On the contrary, it's quite enjoyable.

“I never thought that this ancient relic would be in the rainforest.”

The laser weapon in front of the maglev car leisurely cut through the trees, vines, and monsters that blocked the road.

In the passenger seat, Ye Lina, leaning on her arm, took a deep breath.

She doesn't like this wet weather very much.

On the one hand, she stayed in the Red Mage Tower for too long, where the climate was desert.

On the other hand, it reminded her of someone, a guy she hated.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because humid air is not conducive to the preservation of ruins. Even if there is magic protection, the corrosion of nature is actually very scary."

"Maybe it's just the changing times, the changing world?"

"Wow, the way you say idioms really makes me happy."

Li Zhongren sighed and knocked on the trunk. Leah was lying in the RV at the back. Her body had recovered a lot, but she was still very weak because of the curse.

"Leah, how do we go from here?"

A moment later, the half-elf woman came to the cockpit. With a rather bleak look on her face, she went straight out through the skylight and scanned the scenery outside.

"Keep going in this direction."

In the afternoon, Li Zhongren and others finally arrived at their destination.

From the outside, this is just a waterfall, but when the hovercraft passes through the waterfall, you will find that there is another world inside.

A wide, huge space.

Directly in front of us, there is a metal door that looks very valuable at first glance.

I take back what I said before, it seems that this place was deliberately chosen to build the ruins.

After getting off the car, Li Zhongren walked forward a few steps, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the door made of unknown metal.

"How did you get in?"

"He dug a small hole on the side and got in."

Leah said.

"However, the cave has been blocked. We didn't even enter the cemetery. We were just attacked by the protective barrier of the ruins during the excavation process."

Hearing this, Li Zhongren nodded.

His own psychic perception penetrated into the metal door like a spider web.

At first, there was some resistance, but as he increased his strength, it gradually penetrated.

It is obvious that Li Zhongren intends to do something miraculous.

But, at this moment.

The relief on this unknown metal actually glowed, and dark golden light flowed through the ravines, outlining a star map - that was the constellation totem of the ancient gods of Faerun.

"Stop, honey."

Ye Lina stopped Li Zhongren and pulled his hand off the door. The reappearing constellation totem slowly dissipated.

"What is this?"

Li Zhongren looked at Ye Lina and couldn't help asking.

"A reminder, or a warning."

Ye Lina took a deep breath.

"The meaning of this totem is annihilation."

"I don't know who the tomb owner is, but I know that if we forcefully open this door, it will cause an extremely powerful explosion. You'll be the only one among us who can survive, but there will definitely be nothing left of the things inside. To be honest, I speculate that the person who set up this barrier was not even one person, but a joint formation that could only be done by several legends."

"That is to say, you can't force your way in."

Hearing this, Li Zhongren took a half step back and looked at Ye Lina. He was just an adventurer. He accepted the mission and completed the commission, but if the mission could not be carried out, it would depend on the employer's opinion.

"So, what do you think?"

"I want to go in. This is related to my experiment, so I need someone who can break the barrier. Unfortunately, I don't know such a person."

"Don't look at me, I don't know anyone like that."

"But the blue star behind you may not be."

"Then you better think about it. If you find Blue Star, you will have to take advantage of it."

"I don't have a big appetite. I only want things related to curses. I'm not interested in anything else."

"it is good."

Li Zhongren nodded.

Indeed, with the Blue Star's ability to coordinate as precisely as mechanical gears, it should not be a problem for them to fight as a group and take down an ancient tomb that will not fight back.

Thinking of this, he took out a mobile phone from his arms.

This is the dedicated mobile phone he had obtained before. No matter where he is in Faerun, he can directly contact the floating city headquarters on Blue Star.

"Hello, Major General Li Zhongren."

Major General is Li Zhongren's current military rank, which is basically the pinnacle of glory that an individual can achieve.

Above them are lieutenant generals and generals, who are the ones who actually manage the army.

On the other side of the communicator was a beautiful girl wearing a military uniform, looking very heroic.

"Please transfer me to the chairman of the rotation."

"Yes, please wait."

"Hello, I'm Liang Changshan."

"Chairman Liang, I am Li Zhongren."

"Yeah, I know. What's up, Chung-jin?"

"Is such that."

Li Zhongren then told what happened here.

"He wants to ask you to send an archaeological team to excavate the ruins through me. As for the subsequent income, she only needs magic props related to the curse. If there is any income related to knowledge, just make a copy of her."

"Sure, I'm fine here."

Upon hearing this, the chairman of the floating city round couldn't help but smile silently.

This is what he said, the benefit of having Li Zhongren. According to the original plan, if Blue Star wanted to gradually expand its influence in Faerun, it would take at least another hundred years to gradually disintegrate the Demigod Alliance.

Yes, this is what Blue Star’s plan is. After all, as the Eastern Country, they know very well that as long as they maintain their tempers and do not push the demigods into a corner, the so-called Demigod Alliance will be nothing more than the eighteen princes.

The five thousand years of history of the East is like the infinite and non-repeating π. You can find anything in it that corresponds to the present.

"Okay then, we'll wait here."
-
"Iron Triangle Extraordinary Team, reporting!"

Stargate, floating city.

Hu Jiu, Wang Shou and Yu Liyang came to the first office.

"It's very fast."

"Reporting to the round chairman, we came here in a fighter plane."

"Haha, sit down."

"Here's the thing."

The chairman of the round waved his hand and told the story of the ruins again.

"But."

Hu Jiu spoke.

“Although I have the secret skills passed down from my family and can dig up extraordinary ancient tombs, this is not the same world.”

"The reasons are different, but the principles are the same. Xiao Hu, you know, your archaeological discoveries have proved one thing. Our Blue Star also had psychic power a long time ago, but it was exhausted later. So, since they are all extraordinary relics based on psychic power, I believe in your strength."

"Moreover, this is also an opportunity for us at Blue Star to expand."

"After accepting the commission, we can have sufficient reasons to establish an archaeological base there, and use this as an opportunity to even develop a town in the rain forest. And you know, we spent more than a hundred years digging for a soldier's toilet of the Qin Emperor. So, for the purpose of a legendary strongman, we can dig for two hundred years, no problem, right?" "Ahem, I get it."

Hu Jiu saluted.

"I promise to complete the task!"

"Very good, then I will leave everything to you."

In the sky, the hovercraft flew towards the coordinate location.

Hu Jiu and the other two sat in the cabin, sorting out their props.

"Old Hu, you agreed too readily. Going to the cemetery is risking your life. I'm leaving these two hundred pounds to you."

"What can I do? We owed the Floating City a big favor in order to allow you and Lili to gather enough materials for the upgrade. We must repay it."

"That's right, Your Majesty, I am not a person who repays kindness with enmity."

Wang Shou yawned, and then checked his bullets one by one. His extraordinary system was that of a melee gunslinger, a heritage from an ancient tomb. He possessed a strong physique and a combat profession that could manufacture and fire special bullets.

"But, have you heard of that Li Zhongren?"

"No."

"I checked."

Yu Liyang spoke.

"About half a month ago, he was still an ordinary person. After undergoing a transformation by the red robe wizard, he became a legend."

"Fuck, how can I reason with this?"

"I suspect that he has awakened the mystery in his womb. The so-called transformation is just a cover."

Hu Jiu spoke.

"In ancient times, there were many powerful people on Blue Star."

"Let's not talk about this. What kind of character is he? Can he use us as a scapegoat?"

Wang Shou looked at Yu Liyang and asked again.

Yu Liyang told Wang Shou the story of the little match girl.

"Awesome, the prince respects him."

Wang Shou gave a thumbs up.

"Om~~~"

In the rain forest, Li Zhongren cleared a wide area of ​​several hundred square meters and parked the RV in the middle.

The three did not stay in the car, but built a huge bonfire outside.

The purpose is also very simple, drying.

Li Zhongren's ability allows him to control the earth and rocks, but he has no control over the moisture in the air.

So, this blazing bonfire can dry out the surroundings.

On the side, there was a small campfire with food cooking on it.

At this moment, the sound of an engine roar was heard in the sky, and a moment later, three people landed on a single aircraft.

"The Iron Triangle team, Hu Jiu, led by members Wang Shou and Yu Liyang, greets Major General Li!"

As he said this, Hu Jiu saluted, because he used to be a soldier.

"Good three."

Li Zhongren stood up and waved his hand with a smile.

"Major General, we are the vanguard, responsible for conducting a reconnaissance survey of the ancient tomb. The follow-up large-scale mining troops are being prepared."

"Well, come on, sit down and eat something."

"Yes, Major General."

"Let me introduce you. This is Ye Lina, a mage from the Red Robe Mage Society, and also my girlfriend. As for this one, she is the adventurer who discovered the cemetery, Leah."

After Li Zhongren's introduction, a group of people gathered together.

However, due to language barriers and unfamiliarity, Ye Lina just leaned against Li Zhongren and looked at the others with a smile without saying a word. Leah also hid weakly aside. Only Li Zhongren communicated a lot with Hu Jiu at the scene.

For example, the detection of ancient tombs and some information about everyone's past.

The night is deep.

A tent was set up on the flat ground.

Hu Jiu and the other two did not take off their equipment, but just rested in their respective corners leaning against their bags.

"Old Hu."

"how?"

"I feel like this major general is pretty good."

"cough."

Hu Jiu coughed. The perception of a legendary strong man was very terrifying.

"I cast a silencing spell on the tent."

Yu Liyang spoke.

"So, what did you gain?"

"Not bad. I've seen this major general through face reading. He's someone worth making friends with."

"That's good."

Yu Liyang nodded. It’s never too careful in a foreign land.

"Hehe, this major general is also very lucky. I saw that magician from Furen, and he looked at him with a lecherous look in his eyes."

"Fatty, let me remind you that you must watch your mouth. That guy is not a good person."

"What do you mean?"

"You can think of the Red Robe Mages of Faerun as a group of people who specialize in conducting experiments on living people."

Yu Liyang explained.

"I checked the information before I came here."

"Hundreds of years ago, the Red Mage Society even fought a war with the entire Faerun, but they lost in the end. They no longer captured people for experiments, but instead paid for their lives. Ye Linna joined the Red Mage Society about a hundred years ago. She is not a lunatic without bottom line, but she is definitely not a pushover."

"Okay, I know. Lao Hu, are you sure about this relic?"

"I used the Qi-reading technique and I'm somewhat confident. After all, everyone's underlying logic is similar."

The next day, after daybreak, Hu Jiu washed up, took a compass, boarded a single-person aircraft, flew into the sky, and started to check.
"So, you are actually the so-called tomb raiders?"

Li Zhongren looked at these three people and guessed in his heart that they were probably the alien versions of the three main characters of Ghost Blows Out the Light.

"Ah."

Wang Shou nodded.

"Old Hu is now surveying this ancient tomb according to his family secret technique."

"Do people from other worlds also follow our Feng Shui when they are buried?"

"Definitely not, Major General Li, but."

Yu Liyang spoke.

"The use of energy is definitely the same. We Blue Star people pay attention to Feng Shui. In the final analysis, it is a kind of use of energy. On the one hand, it is for ourselves, such as preserving corpses and plotting resurrection. On the other hand, it is to use the quantum induction between bloodlines to bless our descendants."

"So, even though we have never seen the ancient tomb in another world, it is just a lock. We can crack it by starting from the root."

"I see."

Hearing this, Li Zhongren nodded and turned on the communicator.

"Brother Hu, is there anything I can help you with?"

“Yeah, it really is.”

After a moment, Hu Jiu spoke.

“If possible, I would like to remove all vegetation around here, but not destroy the landform, so that I can observe more easily.”

"Easy to say."

Li Zhongren stamped his feet, and his lower body turned to mud. The next moment, the entire ancient tomb and the soil around it seemed to come alive. Under Li Zhongren's control, all the vegetation and the soil above were moved to other places. From a distance, it looked as if a piece of scalp had been peeled off the jungle...
