Chapter 595: Soul-Returning Paper Figure
The powerful Brick Flyer was holding a huge weapon in his hand, which made Blaze very concerned, and he glanced over from time to time.

The giant hammer with a long handle had a pink heart on the top and ferocious wolf fangs all around.

Ariadne's Hammer of Love

[A huge spindle like a sledgehammer, symbolizing heavy love and curse, can consume MP to release magic threads that can bind and cut enemies]

As Dali Feizhuan walked, he pulled out a magical thread from the spindle hammer in his hand, leaving an extremely visible thread on the ground.

As long as you hold this spindle, you can continuously release MP, generating magic lines that wrap around the spindle. The magic lines on the spindle can be used to solve the maze, and of course, can also be used in battle.

There is nothing wrong with the weapon itself, it's just that its shape is very strange. The cute pink weapon does not match the shape of the powerful flying brick very well.

However, Blaze did not just take a peek at Dali Feizhuan's weapon, and did not neglect his main business.

"Hmm~ It seems like there's something." Blaze found some strange places on the surrounding walls, but it was a bit awkward to look at them with his head tilted, so he simply stood upside down.

"here……"

What Blazer saw were rather simple but ancient-feeling pictograms describing how people believed they could go to a better world after death, so they did more good deeds and accumulated wealth during their lifetime.

"Most stories about the afterlife will have a development like this." Dali Feizhuan held the spindle, keeping an eye on his surroundings while listening to Blaze's translation.

"But the afterlife associated with this mausoleum is quite creepy. They will take out the heart of the deceased and a feather of justice and put them on both sides of the scale. If the heart is lighter than the feather, then that person is a good person."

"If it's heavier than a feather, then it will be fed to crocodiles."

"Does that mean bad guys will just disappear into nothingness... No wonder they do things like this."

Blaze sighed in surprise as he watched the scene. He was so excited that he wanted to stand upside down to watch it. Unfortunately, as they went deeper, monsters appeared more and more frequently, so he had to be on guard at all times.

"How can you make people become good people in order to go to a wonderful afterlife with a powerful flying brick?"

"Ah? Of course it's to let people know that the consequences of not being a good person are really serious." Dali Feizhuan rolled his eyes. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Blaze's way of speaking gradually became roundabout and he didn't give a direct answer.

"Of course, if they were allowed to experience how scary this process is in advance, they would behave themselves if they were scared."

"Yes, this mural is about letting the living take a peek at the afterlife. Let them see how beautiful and peaceful the world is for good people, and also let them see what kind of torture the evil people will suffer."

Blaze stood up with a whoosh, and made way for Dali Feizhuan to watch while he was standing upside down.

The mural is very simple, so in order to avoid any ambiguity in the subsequent text and picture content, the creator specially drew a large number of people with completely different clothing and styles to let the viewers know the characteristics of these people.

Under this premise, the following content becomes meaningful.

People created a person exactly like themselves, placed them in the flames, and fell asleep around the flames. Then those who were placed in the fire pit went to the afterlife in the flames and experienced the process of death firsthand.

They went through trials, some entered a beautiful afterlife, some watched their hearts being fed to crocodiles, some found peace, some fell into the terror of being reduced to ashes, but in the end they all woke up beside a fire pit.

"It looks like they made their own substitutes and let the substitutes enter the world of death through flames. Well... those substitutes might be made of some kind of flammable material, and entered the afterlife by burning up in flames." Dali Feizhuan said his guess while looking at the mural, and then the corners of his mouth twitched.

"…Why does this setting look so much like a paper doll?"

He was not afraid of ancient tombs or demons, but he was deeply afraid of something as spooky as paper figurines. "Putting paper figurines in the pyramids is too gloomy!"

Dali Feizhuan stood up suddenly, rubbed his arms vigorously, and muttered "Demons and ghosts, please go away."

"Wait! What did you say?" Blazer was stunned. He heard a very unexpected word. "You said this is a pyramid?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Dali Feizhuan, who was originally very ferocious, became timid after saying the word "paper man", so he didn't notice that Blaze fell silent at all.

Blaze looked at the chicken, who nodded.

"That's what the old lion said."

"The triangular mausoleum and the ladder leading to the sun can only be hidden if it is turned upside down. The upside-down ladder..." Blaze's eyes lit up, and everything in front of him seemed to become clear.

"The upside-down ladder to the sun is the ladder to the sun underground!"

This is a very bold conjecture, but it is worth verifying. Anyway, it doesn't take much time to reach the deepest part of the mausoleum, and we have to search this place anyway, so we can do a lot of things on this way.

"It's not a wasted trip! Let's go, stranger!"

"I have to slow down..." Dali Feizhuan froze in place. Ever since the word "paper man" appeared, he felt a chill on his back.

The Flying Brick couldn't move, but fortunately Blaze's strength attribute was high enough that he could drag the Flying Brick forward.

……

[G] In the meeting room, most people covered their mouths with their fingers crossed. The atmosphere was extremely depressing. The only person standing was Kitchenware.

Her face was gloomy, and she repeatedly looked at the video of herself opening the door in Tiye.

"I'm coughing coughing--" As soon as the bespectacled otaku opened his mouth, laughter came out of his mouth, and then the kitchen utensils stuck their faces over like a female ghost in a horror movie.

"Are you smiling?"

“No, no—I’m definitely not amazed by your self-vaunted super defensive grave-guarding beast. It’s like a lonely widow whose heart was breached by a yellow-haired little brother. Puaaaa—”

The bespectacled otaku wailed because the gothic high heels of the kitchen utensils under the table were stepping on his feet.

"You can just put the key in there honestly, why do you have to make a fake key? It's fine to make a fake key, but what's the big deal about a bigger key!"

"A bigger key would be fine--" The kitchen utensil slammed his head on the table, while at the same time pushing hard with his feet, causing the bespectacled otaku to wail along with him.

"Damn it! It's okay to have a big key, but why let the gravebeast open the door by itself! What kind of top-level minotaur is this? I can't stand it!"

Kitchenware had imagined countless situations where the tomb-guarding beasts were forcibly breached, but he never expected it to be in this way. It was just a lock and a key!
In fact, the Face of Tiyet is really just a tomb-guarding beast in the shape of a mural. Apart from being able to make women's voices, it has nothing to do with women.
