"Young Master, what's wrong?"
This wasn't the first time Tuor had heard Miss Forty-Seven call Domi "Young Master," indicating that Domi's identity was quite important. Tuor kept this in mind, thinking it might come in handy later.
Domi was seen pressing against the stone wall inside the cell, knocking on it left and right, seemingly doing something.
"When I was smashing the stone wall, I always felt that the sound was a bit asymmetrical. The right side was very solid, while the left side was a bit crisp, like... like something..."
"You mean, one side is solid and the other side is hollow?"
In terms of experience, the shill, being an A-level veteran, knows the most.
"That's right!" Domi snapped his fingers in sudden realization.
Finally, they chose a wall, directly behind the spot where the toddler had just been sitting. As expected, the back of this wall was hollow, and there might be a secret hidden inside.
"Although the dragons are capricious, they don't do things without a reason. Imprisoning you here must have a purpose. Perhaps it's just self-deception."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you spouting nonsense I can't understand? Are you taking advantage of my lack of education?"
"Mr. Toddler, please calm down..."
"No matter what it is, you'll know once you open it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Domi grabbed Susanoo's fist and swung it at it!
Rumbling--
The wall, disguised as a natural stone wall but actually made of stone bricks, collapsed instantly, scattering bricks all over the ground.
The three of them peered inside, but it was completely dark.
"I'll start the fire later. Tor, use wind magic to change the gas inside."
"Alright~ Watch me!"
After releasing the flammable gas, Domi threw a small flame inside, enough to illuminate the entire room.
Upon entering, one finds only a coffin placed in the very center.
(Wait... I'm not a professional tomb raider, so why do I keep running into all sorts of ancient tombs...)
Domi and Tori both swallowed hard. Forty-Seven, on the other hand, didn't feel anything. It was just a dead person. She had seen it since she was a child and didn't want to see it again.
With a single glance, Tuo'er revealed his greed: "Open the coffin and see? Maybe there's treasure inside!"
Domi decisively rejected the idea: "We'll have to wait a bit before we can open it."
Having said that, he stood at the southeast corner of the coffin, and flames ignited on his raised finger:
"Humans light candles, ghosts blow them out..."
After waiting for a long time, the candlelight did not go out, indicating that the soul of the deceased was not opposed to them opening the coffin. Moreover, the candlelight burned brighter and brighter, perhaps even eagerly anticipating their opening of the coffin...
What an eccentric tomb owner.
"Open it, shill, you take over."
"can!"
The toddlers are big and strong, perfect for this kind of physical work.
Domi stood to one side, observing the style of the coffin.
This is a rectangular stone coffin. There are no patterns or reliefs on the surface of the coffin. It is so simple that it is almost frightening. Moreover, the stone slab is not very smooth. The rough texture is visible to the naked eye.
How ancient must humans have been to use this level of craftsmanship?
Sizzle sizzle sizzle—
With the immense strength of the toddler, the heavy stone coffin lid was slowly pushed open, revealing a corner of the interior.
The three of them looked on curiously.
It was a skeleton, its flesh long since decayed, draped in a white-gold robe, though it had turned a dull gray with the erosion of time. Judging from the size of the pelvis and the style of the robe, it wasn't hard to deduce...
"This should be the remains of a woman, and someone who was like a saint. There weren't even any burial objects inside, which means she wasn't properly buried. I guess someone put them in there later."
"The savage rip on the lower half of the priest's robe seems to confirm this hypothesis, tsk... it looks a bit like goblin scratches?"
Toler sighed, "I thought there was some treasure inside, but it was all for nothing."
Just then, the skeletons inside suddenly emitted a golden light...
These specks of light spilled out and transformed into a human figure above the coffin, precisely the appearance of this 'saintess' in life—
She wore a priest's robe, her long golden hair cascading down her back, and possessed a beautiful and serene appearance, both sacred and dignified.
"I...I...I...I...I didn't mean to offend anyone, really! I was just saying it casually!"
However, the projection seemed to ignore the shills and simply spoke to itself as it looked down:
"O newcomer who discovered this place, please forgive the rudeness of the Dragon King Aug. I apologize on its behalf." She bowed and then spoke again:
"If you want to leave here, perhaps I can point you in the right direction, which will save you a lot of time, but there is one condition."
"That is to bring my papal robes back to the Holy Ifamur Catholic Church within a year. That is my homeland and my duty."
My bones may remain here forever, but my priestly robes must return to the Lord's embrace; they represent my final dignity, and they are my only remaining possessions.
"If you are willing to help me, the path back to the ground will be opened for you."
At this point, the saint's projection vanished, and the remains seemed to have lost their last bit of energy, turning completely to dust, leaving only a tattered priestess robe in the coffin...
Enabling comments from people with a fan value of 1 or higher is really annoying, as deleting comments from those who just want to freeload and are brainless is extremely frustrating.
Those who have subscribed here can basically ignore this, unless you skip directly to this subscription point...
That's probably impossible, right?
Chapter 129-128 Giving Lance a Small Shock from Slaying a Dragon
"Given the saint's eagerness, she must have anticipated the possibility that some unscrupulous adventurer would take the robes, obtain the guidance, and run away."
Domi, stroking his chin, analyzed, "Therefore, there must have been a trap she set up in the priest's robe to force us to complete the transaction."
"Perhaps it's a contract, or perhaps it's some kind of toxin that will kill you if you don't get the antidote."
The tortoise said bluntly, "But we have to get out of here, don't we? So what's there to hesitate about?"
"If you're worried about any coercive measures, then I'll take this priest's robe myself, as payment for rescuing me!"
"Hey wait!"
Domi could have pulled off some crazy moves, but Tori had already taken the priest's robe from the coffin.
In an instant, the power of the contract descended from the sky.
Tor needs to deliver the priest's robe to the 'Lord' as the saint instructed, and the saint will then guide Tor to leave the cave.
If either party breaches the contract, they will die on the spot.
Domi sighed: "Why are you doing this... risking your life for a dead person."
"So be it, things have come to this. After the Ruins City is settled, we'll go with you to the Holy Ifamur Theocracy."
Toddler was overjoyed and patted Domi's back hard, laughing heartily:
"Hahaha, Brother Death and Miss Forty-Seven are truly loyal! I'm determined to be your friend!"
"You seem to have absolutely no sense of crisis..."
"As adventurers, we should always be optimistic! Come on, I'll take you out of here."
The three of them left the dark little room and returned to the goblin lair where Domi had slaughtered them. On a protruding rock stood a 'throne' of the goblin chieftain.
I remember that the leading goblin stood right here, giving orders to the little goblins.
Tor stepped forward and smashed the wooden throne to pieces with two axe blows.
An emergency passage hidden behind the seats was thus revealed. Although it was built to the size of goblins, they could barely squeeze in by crawling on their stomachs.
"Exit~ Here I come~"
The toddler was the first to squeeze inside, but only his upper body went in; his lower body was still wriggling outside, and the sight of his muscular buttocks twisting and turning was truly unsightly.
"Um... could you give me a push? I think I'm stuck."
"Excuse me, hello~~"
"Okay, okay, wait a minute."
Domi really didn't want to push that greasy, muscular, hard buttock with his hands, so he summoned Brother Tower Shield to do the work.
"I'll count to three and then push hard."
"OK~" Tor's deep voice echoed in the tunnel.
"Three...two...one!"
The moment the words left his mouth, Domi immediately had Brother Tower Shield exert all his strength, and finally managed to force Tor inside.
"It's a bit more spacious inside now, so please come in quickly!"
Crawling behind a burly man with smelly feet was indeed a bit difficult, but Domi couldn't bear to let Forty-Seven follow behind and smell his stinky feet, so he chose to crawl in second.
The three of them crawled diagonally upwards, as if they were fighting a guerrilla war...
Finally, at the cave entrance, the reddish afternoon sunlight shone on their faces.
"Finally... out!" Toll raised his hands to the sky: "Come on, give me a high five? A high five?"
He asked twice, but neither of them paid him any attention, because their reaction after they came out was far from optimistic.
The surrounding area was a desolate forest, with endless snowfields and not even a crow on the branches. It was a truly godforsaken place.
Lost and disoriented, starving and freezing, with no supplies left, if they couldn't find their way back to town, they might really die here...
Domi didn't want to waste two resurrection opportunities in a place like this.
Yes, if he had to die, he would save himself and Forty-Seven.
Although he was somewhat resistant to the idea of a third party, the person who arranged the childcare was a good person. It was just that they hadn't spent much time together yet, so there was no need to invest too much in someone who was still a relative stranger.
However, we should still try to avoid this situation.
