"Exactly! Even if there are no skeletons, we still need to be wary of people trying to steal our things, right? For example, what if those who chose the right side realize something's wrong and come to steal our things, or block the exit? What will we do then?"
"Haha, is there anything to worry about? Are you questioning Lord Lowell's strength?"
"No, no, Lord Lowell has always been the strongest!"
"Yes! Lord Lowell is the strongest!"
The crowd behind them cheered as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
"Ahem, keep a low profile, keep a low profile, I still don't like being too flamboyant."
That's what he said, but the trembling voice of his excitement betrayed Lowell.
These words were still very effective for him.
He straightened up involuntarily, but forced a calm expression.
The group moved on.
There were more than twenty of them at the time, chatting and laughing, making it quite lively.
They had initially thought they would encounter some dangerous monsters, but they didn't encounter anything along the way, so the group became increasingly complacent.
"Ah ha ha……"
Yukinoshita could only smile.
Sometimes people would strike up a conversation with her, but...
Is this really the path to the tomb's occupant's chamber? Is it truly possible to reach there?
And even if we get there, how are we going to deal with those bosses? Can our group really defeat them?
Yukinoshita was also unsure of herself.
At this point, Lowell was also uncertain.
He listened to the chatter around him, and as he faded from people's sight, he put on a gloomy face again.
However, this face was protected by thick armor, and no one else could see it.
"What's wrong with Yukinoshita Haruno? The exploration information she provided is incomplete."
He was still bothered by the guard who had been standing at the entrance of the ruins.
"If the actual level and all the values had been clearly marked, would I have ended up in such a sorry state?"
"In the end, isn't it her fault?"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
"If it weren't for the unknown values, I wouldn't be fighting in this incredibly heavy armor, and I wouldn't have made a fool of myself."
"Yes, it's all because she didn't provide good stats that I had to continue fighting in armor."
"In terms of strength, I can easily handle that ruins guard. I even broke through its armor. Once the armor is broken, it'll be easy to get inside."
"Other guys managed to get away with it, leaving me in such a sorry state."
His expression became increasingly gloomy.
Along the way, everyone else was laughing and joking, but he was the only one who rarely spoke.
People around him initially wanted to talk to him, but after seeing his aloofness, they all backed away.
"Lowell is truly a master."
"Yes, it's always better for a master to be a bit detached."
"It was my fault; I am unworthy to speak to Lord Lowell."
"Don't bother Lord Lowell anymore, everyone should just go about their business."
……
The people around him assumed that Lowell, being a master, was naturally aloof and didn't pay any attention to him. Instead, they admired and revered him even more.
The group continued on their way.
However, Yukino's unease grew more and more intense.
The surrounding lights began to decrease, and the terrain became lower and lower.
Moreover, there were many downward staircases, indicating that the group had already entered at least the fifth underground level.
The walls between each layer are so thick that they cannot be broken by brute force.
Why dig this deep into an ancient tomb? And there weren't many monsters blocking the way.
Yukinoshita increasingly felt that she might have taken the wrong path.
If it is indeed the main burial chamber of the main tomb, then the path should be wide, but now the road has become narrow.
The lights along the way became fewer and fewer, and dimmer and dimmer.
"Will the main tomb look like this?"
Gradually, some people began to raise questions.
"I don't know... Logically speaking, shouldn't the tomb of a saint be very magnificent? Why is the road getting narrower and narrower?"
"It's not just the roads, even the lights have dimmed. Haven't you noticed that there are no lights left here?"
Where exactly have we gone?
The people behind were whispering among themselves.
Until suddenly someone in front of them shouted at them.
Are you still questioning Lord Lowell's judgment?
One of the young fans angrily shouted at the people behind him, "How could Lord Lowell make a mistake? This is definitely the main tomb, and we will definitely be able to find the main burial chamber."
"Lord Lowell, don't you think so?" He then looked at Lowell beside him.
“Ah…that’s right, we haven’t reached the end yet, have we? We’ll find out if we keep going,” he said.
“But there are no lights here anymore,” someone else said.
It had all turned pitch black.
Looking back, all you could see was a pale blue light flickering.
The originally eerie blue lights became even more sinister at this moment.
More than twenty people were crammed into the narrow passageway, and they could even hear each other breathing.
This road can only accommodate two people side by side; twenty people would be crammed together here.
“I mean… there aren’t any monsters here, are there?” one of the women asked.
Her tone was full of fear and timidity, "Should we go back?"
"Go back? We've come this far, what reason is there to go back?"
Immediately, someone else refuted this.
“But… the situation here is too strange, haven’t you noticed? It’s much colder here than other places, and I feel like we’re a thousand meters underground…” someone else said.
"This is so strange. Why is it getting stranger and stranger as we walk? Logically speaking, after walking for so long, we should at least see some traces of the main tomb, right?"
"A saint's tomb. Since it's a saint's tomb, the main burial chamber should be very luxurious, right? How could it be a place like this?"
Everyone is discussing it.
"Is there anything scary here? Like some kind of monster sealed away?" someone else said.
This made Lowell a little uneasy.
The road was already going down the wrong path, and now it's become so terrifying.
Let's go all the way to the end and take a look!
Lowell reiterated, "What are you all yelling about if we haven't reached the bottom yet? We haven't even gotten to the very bottom, have we?"
"But... even if we're not a thousand meters above the ground, we must be at least a few hundred meters away, right? Who would build a grave in such a place...? Should we go back and try another route?"
Someone else tried to continue speaking, but was abruptly interrupted by Lowell.
"Shut up! If you don't want to leave, then go out yourselves! Go on your own!" Lowell said, striding forward.
At this point, it was impossible for him to go back.
It's still quite a distance from here to the original fork in the road. By this time, everyone else has already gone in through another ramp, and any good stuff has already been divided up by them. There's no chance for someone like me who has to turn back halfway.
The best course of action right now is to keep moving forward.
Even if this isn't the main burial chamber, we should still be able to find some good stuff, right? This is an ancient tomb full of treasures, you can't possibly find nothing at all, can you?
With this in mind, Lowell decided to go all the way down the wrong path.
Since it's already happened, all that's left is to move forward and see what else we can gain.
Chapter 234 Skyscraper Serpent
Under Lowell's instructions, the group continued onward.
