Free Web NovelChapter 1157: Chapter 1156: Entering the Ancient Tomb’s Interior
Clint nodded calmly!
Actually, before he came, he had already decided there was only one word for this journey, and that word is kill!
Anyone who sees or knows about the secret to becoming the strongest must die, not one can live!
Then, Clint shouted loudly to the vampire elites in front of him, "Everyone, the secret to becoming the strongest lies beneath this dark tunnel. Now, we must go down immediately!"
"We obey King Clint’s orders!"
The vampire elites shouted urgently, excitement showing on their faces; this was the dream in everyone’s heart!
Afterward, they immediately began preparing tools to descend the tunnel entrance. Several vampire elites scouted ahead, and upon confirming there was no danger, Clint and the others began their orderly descent into the tunnel!
Their speed was very fast; in just two hours, Clint and his team had already reached the bottom of the tunnel!
However, before them, Lin Fan and others had triggered the mechanisms and opened the stone door, lighting the oil lamps, making the entire tunnel bright as if they had paved the way for Clint and the others, making their actions extraordinarily convenient!
Looking at the deep passage before him, Clint sneered, "Tyrant, I have to admire you; you are indeed a smart person. Without you, I would never have found this place in my lifetime, nor would I know how to activate this door. Tyrant, thank you for paving the way for me!"
Then Clint waved his hand, and the group of vampire elites immediately entered the open stone door, closely following Lin Fan and others, heading deeper inside!
...
Meanwhile, Lin Fan and others had no idea that the vampires had already caught up!
The group moved cautiously forward, not daring to be careless in the slightest. Over these past hours, they moved slowly, covering only about ten miles.
The whole tunnel twisted and turned, extremely winding, resembling a snake coiled together!
The sides of the tunnel were unusually smooth, carved with all sorts of illustrations, the sheer artistic value of which was difficult for current master painters to replicate!
This was the treasure of Huaxia ancients, the legacy of ancestors, unfortunately not passed down!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, a gust of evil wind blew by!
After Lin Fan and others passed through a winding passage, they arrived again at a straight tunnel, and at its end, another stone door appeared!
However, as the evil wind blew by, several flames suddenly floated mid-air before Lin Fan and others in the tunnel!
"This... This is ghost fire, could there really be ghosts?" Xiang’Er said, her face slightly pale.
"This is phosphorescence, not ghost fire. It poses no danger!" Lin Fan replied.
"Damn it! Even if there are ghosts, so what? I’m fully armed, and even if ghosts come, I can take them down!" Nie Lei scoffed, stepping forward briskly!
However, before Nie Lei’s foot landed, Lin Fan suddenly reached out to stop him, saying, "Wait!"
"What’s up, boss?" Nie Lei asked.
"There might be traps!"
Lin Fan cautioned, his gaze fixed intently on the tunnel ahead!
Despite the evil wind blowing over the tunnel, there was a sense of foreboding spreading within Lin Fan’s heart!
Lin Fan dared not be reckless, quickly picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it out!
The stone traced an arc before hitting the ground, rolling several laps with a "rummaging" sound!
Then, just as the stone landed, a clattering noise broke from within the walls, stones began falling off, revealing a mechanism of steel crossbows clearly before Lin Fan and the others!
"Vroom!" "Vroom!" "Vroom!" ...
Suddenly, arrows were frantically shot out!
They pierced the void, almost like tearing through space itself, producing an incredibly ear-piercing sound as they embedded into the opposite wall!
In merely a few blinks, hundreds of crossbows fired arrows, filling both walls densely, a sight that instilled fear!
Nie Lei involuntarily shivered several times; had Lin Fan not stopped him, he couldn’t imagine what fate might have befallen him!
With so many arrows shot simultaneously, his body could instantly become riddled like a beehive!
But Lin Fan and others didn’t immediately enter this booby-trapped area; after tossing another stone and waiting a while to ensure safety, Lin Fan waved a hand, cautiously moving toward the stone door opposite!
Upon reaching the stone door, to Lin Fan’s surprise, it was painted with the upper body of a person and the lower body of a snake woman!
This Snake Woman was identical to the Snake Woman sculptures worshipped by the Miao Race!
"It’s our Miao Race’s deity; could there be a deity behind this?" Miao Qiaomei said, excitement flashing across her face!
"Whether it is your Miao Race deity or not, everyone must be careful. I estimate we’ve entered the inside of the palace, not far from the central area. There’ll definitely be more traps and dangers here; everyone must stay vigilant!" Lin Fan warned cautiously!
"Don’t worry, boss!"
Nie Lei reassured, gripping his heavy weapon tightly, eyes alert and cautious!
Very soon, Lin Fan found a protruding stone nearby and lightly pressed it down with his hand!
"Clunk clunk clunk!"
The heavy stone door began to slowly open, as no one had opened it since it stood here, every slide dislodged stones, kicking up dust that formed a cloud!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~
With a series of noises, when the stone door opened, the oil lamps inside immediately lit up, illuminating the scene before them!
"Squeal!"
Suddenly, a bizarre shriek!
Lin Fan hadn’t yet seen clearly what was inside the stone door when a shadow suddenly descended from above his head, opening its bloody mouth revealing sharp fangs, coming to bite Lin Fan’s head!
It was a giant python, as thick as a barrel!
Lin Fan was greatly startled, how could he be careless, gripping his Soft Sword tightly, quickly slashing in one swift motion!
"Ding!" a crisp sound!
The Soft Sword slashed the python’s body, making a metallic clash sound, almost as if metal collided!
Though Lin Fan scored a hit, leaving a bloody mark on the python, he couldn’t sever it!
But that slash infuriated the python; undeterred, it opened its bloody mouth again, lunging fiercely at Lin Fan!
