Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Faced with such a tranquil moment, Jiang Hua and Qin Fengyun's hearts began to pound. Unlike before, the three of them chose to move forward in a single file, because if they walked side by side...

Then things will get complicated. And then, right here, Jiang Hua, who was at the very front, stepped on a floor tile that was reflected in the passage. This floor tile was very unique.

Then, just as Jiang Hua stepped on the floor tile, a barrage of arrows shot out from both sides.

Jiang Hua immediately lowered his head, but upon discovering that there were also arrows on the ground on both sides, shooting out as if these terrifying arrows were shooting from the sky, the ground, and both sides of the wall, Jiang Hua hurriedly retreated backward. Qin Feng and Yun couldn't help but feel lingering fear after watching Jiang Hua retreat.

After all the arrows had been fired, and seeing that the hidden openings had been driven deep into the spot where he had been hiding, Jiang Hua's expression was somewhat panicked, even though he had never been frightened when facing danger before.

However, these were all man-made traps, which made Jiang Hua suspicious about the location behind the passage. Although he didn't know what other dangerous paths lay ahead,

As seasoned experts, Jiang Hua and Qin Feng must find their own methods in this place.

"If I'm not mistaken, these traps were set by the tomb's owner before his death. He hired many skilled craftsmen, but we don't know if there are any other people buried with him, or what their identities are. However, I see these bluestone bricks..."

"It is very likely that this was done by people of high status in ancient times. If they didn't have status, they wouldn't have been able to reach this level."

Jiang Hua looked down at the bluestone slabs on the ground and realized that there was likely a high-ranking person behind this tomb. However, this matter would have been more exciting for them in the past, but in the room they were in before...

The terrifying monster that emanated from the Xuanwu direction was something the black mist didn't know how they were dealing with. If it weren't for the flames emerging from the Zhuque direction, which completely covered the terrifying black mist and annihilated the monster, then...

Jiang Hua and the other two might have already been swallowed up by that black mist. Although Jiang Hua himself was capable of dealing with the black mist, the side effects he would suffer would be extremely severe.

“I think you’re right. The room we encountered earlier must have been provided by his subordinates or a relative. The monsters that appeared there were more than we could handle. So, should we continue forward?”

As Yun watched Qin Feng walk forward, and considering whether there might be any other dangers ahead, she didn't follow him. Instead, she walked towards Jiang Hua and expressed her concerns. Jiang Hua heard Yun's words.

Her face also showed a helpless expression. She didn't want to continue moving forward, but now the facts had proven that if they didn't continue, they wouldn't be able to retreat even if they wanted to, because Qin Feng had already used all his strength when that gate closed.

He wanted to destroy that place, but the outcome plunged him into deep self-doubt.

"Although we don't know what other unknown dangers lie ahead, the biggest crisis for us right now is also emerging. If we can't continue moving forward and stay here, who knows what other troubles we'll encounter." "Therefore, we must continue moving forward; at least for us, this is the safest situation."

However, just then, Jiang Hua was about to take Yun and follow Qin Feng. The three of them continued walking towards the passage ahead. But then something very strange happened. Jiang Hua heard the sound of insects coming from the passage next to the gate.

When he heard the sound, turned around and looked down, he was shocked to find swarms of corpse worms pouring out of the door. They had been in the room for almost two hours before and had not seen any of these strange monsters.

Now, a massive number of corpse worms have crawled out, one after another, densely packed, a sight that sends chills down one's spine. There are at least tens of thousands of them. Although their numbers are enormous, their size is very small. However, they are also highly poisonous. If these terrifying insects find out about him, even Jiang Hua, if he does not receive timely treatment, will die from the severe poisoning.

"I didn't expect something to happen here. We should leave quickly. If we stay here and get bitten again, we'll find that even a god from the mainland can't save us. I've already used up all the medicine I used before."

Jiang Hua had been wondering whether he should do what Yun was doing when he saw her still hesitating. But after seeing the poems pouring out, he made a decision in his mind. Then he grabbed Yun and rushed toward Qin Feng.

Qin Feng had just been cautiously checking ahead to see if there were any other dangers, but after taking nearly a dozen more steps without encountering any other dangers, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, when he turned around, he saw Jiang Hua hurriedly running over with Yun.

When Jiang Hua almost overtook him, if the passage hadn't been so narrow that it wouldn't have allowed them all to pass together, he probably would have already passed him. So Qin Feng looked at Jiang Hua with suspicion, and his expression was a little strange.

"What happened? You seem so flustered."

Jiang Hua turned to the left and looked at Qin Feng. The expression on his face revealed his current thoughts. However, Qin Feng did not know what Jiang Hua meant. Just then, he heard a dense sound coming from behind him and turned around.

But he saw a scene he would never forget in his life: countless corpse worms, like rolling waves, crawling on the ceiling and walls, and running on the ground, all approaching him step by step.

Jiang Hua looked at Qin Feng, speechless that he still wanted to fight against so many wet and heavy people. He then rushed forward.

He pulled Qin Feng up and ran away into the distance. Although he didn't know what other dangers might exist in this mechanism that humans could very well have created, there might be more trouble for Jiang Hua now.

Before that, he must guard the most sacred place in his heart. (End of Chapter)
