Chapter 321 The Golden Insect and the Moon Wheel
Ji Xun carefully considered the golden coffin, and after finding no mechanism, he chose the spot where Bai Wei had stayed before and walked up.
The angel's head is still floating in the air, always exuding a cold aura.
Although this man did not show any hostility, Ji Xun did not dare to be careless and informed him politely: "Senior, excuse me."
After saying this, he looked at the angel. There was no response, so he stood up.
The lid of the coffin was flipped to the ground. It was empty, and the utensils were visible at a glance.
A hollow carved clay pot and a pure gold human-shaped inner coffin.
There are also a large number of black crystal clusters.
Nothing else.
When Ji Xun looked over, he saw at a glance some golden soft-bodied creature squirming in the clay pot.
"Living creature?"
Ji Xun was also surprised and became alert instinctively. The scalpel floating next to him was immediately in front of the creature.
This kind of ancient tomb from thousands of years ago may be extremely dangerous to any living creature.
Looking closely, it was a mollusk with tentacles made of pure gold.
【Golden Omen Brain-Eating Worm Mother】
Detailed explanation: a mythical creature that has survived for more than five thousand years; a hermaphrodite, it can reproduce eggs indefinitely, parasitize the brain of intelligent life, and control targets; epic spiritual material;
"The original source is here"
Ji Xun looked at the content of Enlightenment and already guessed something.
The eggs floating in the air throughout the tomb all come from this golden brain-eating worm.
Back then, the designers of the imperial mausoleum placed such a mother insect here, which could already deal with most intruders.
Ji Xun had seen introductions to this mythical insect in ancient books before.
This bug is a physical parasite, and its body has no combat effectiveness.
Watching the solemnity on his face dissipate.
Looking at the introduction of the "epic material" again, Ji Xun's eyes lit up.
He spent a lot of time with Master Merlin before and learned a lot about card production.
Theoretically, any substance with extraordinary properties can be used as a card master's professional material.
Furthermore, the effects brought by the material will have some of the abilities of its original body.
This also makes card masters of the same sequence have unique abilities.
Since this golden bug can be used as a material, Ji Xun immediately thought of its parasitic and terrifying ability to control the group's mind. He thought in his mind: "If this bug is made into a professional card, will it be used by others?" Do people have the ability to 'group control thinking'? "
If that's the case, he really has some ideas.
However, "epic quality" materials can only be used by at least level seven.
It’s too high-end, so don’t worry about it for the time being.
Thoughts flashed through Ji Xun's mind, but he didn't think about it in detail.
I just thought I would show it to Master Merlin later.
He took out a petri dish specially designed for collecting living samples and put the bug in it.
In a blink of an eye, Ji Xun looked at the golden humanoid inner coffin again.
Since it is confirmed to be a "suspicious tomb", there is definitely not King Augustus in the inner coffin.
Ji Xun suspected that there was a high probability that it was an anti-theft mechanism targeting tomb robbers, and there must be something terrifying inside.
What the brain-eating worms can’t solve may be solved by the person in the coffin.
Originally, if the coffin was intact, Ji Xun would definitely not open it rashly.
But now, there is a gap in the inner coffin.
A faint silver light can be seen.
And just when Ji Xun looked at the past, Enlightenment appeared again: "You have been exempted from the pollution of faith directed at Arachne, the Lord of Dreams and Joy."
"In this coffin is Silver Moon believer? "
Ji Xun was slightly surprised.
But once you think about it, you will understand.
At the end of the Talon Dynasty, the old god Arachne was the queen of the mad king Alduin.
It is not surprising that there are Silver Moon believers in the royal tomb of Augustus.
And not just any ordinary believer.
It can make people be polluted by looking at it. The person in the coffin was probably of a very high rank back then.
But since the coffin lid has been opened and the being inside has not come out, Ji Xun has actually guessed the result.
"Has the energy been absorbed by the angel's head?"
Ji Xun already understood.
The incantation on this coffin is very complicated, but he understood some simple incantations, pointing to the words "faith gathering", "energy storage", "inner circulation", "nurturing" and so on. strip.
Ji Xun guessed that as long as there are Silver Moon believers who contribute their faith, they can gather here and continue to provide energy for the coffin.
The designer of the tomb probably wanted to ensure that the person in the coffin could protect the tomb for thousands or thousands of years after death.
What a pity.
The coffin lid was opened and the structure was destroyed.
Three thousand years have passed, and the remaining divine pollution in the coffin is very weak and no longer poses a threat.
This scene is similar to the previous situation in Xia Mucheng.
At the beginning, some of the remains of angels absorbed the power of faith from the Silver Moon Outer God.
In other words, the Silver Moon Sect, which some people did not expect, reappeared in the world.
Since the Guardian Angel was killed by the ancestor of Nanjing, the head is probably here because of the arrangement by that person.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun also became bold.
He carefully controlled his shadow and got into the coffin along the gap.
Only then was it confirmed that there was no danger.
There is a mummy inside that has decayed into powder.
Beside the mummy, there is a metal object that exudes moonlight in the dark.
The pollution just now came from this thing.
Ji Xun completely opened the coffin lid, and a weapon in the shape of a crescent moon came into view.
[The Divine Lost Thousand Feather Moon Wheel·First Quarter Moon]
Detailed explanation: A mysterious weapon forged from Rhea's sensitive alloy, an ancient relic exclusive to the Moon Queen Path, and requires exclusive spiritual magic to activate; single-edged sharp + 9. Demon Breaking +88%, Ignorance +50%; Hallucination +150%, causing mental neglect effect on the target; Invisibility +3, Sky Breaking +1; The moon wheel is composed of 720 flying feathers, which can be transformed into an exclusive form. Attack the feather formation, causing continuous attacks on the target; divinity is lost, and part of the power is lost; weak spirituality remains;
"This"
Ji Xun couldn't move his eyes away.
I have to admit that this is the most "beautiful" weapon he has ever seen.
The moonlight is like silver, and its arc is like a crescent moon.
Half a man tall, standing next to the mummy like wings.
If nothing else, the Silver Moon Sect has extremely high aesthetics.
Ji Xun looked at this rare weapon, as if he saw a beautiful girl lying quietly in a dark coffin, waiting in loneliness for three thousand years.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand, wanting to caress this beautiful weapon.
However, as soon as he put his hand into the coffin, he suddenly heard a metallic "click" sound.
Looking again, the originally smooth Silver Moon Scimitar turned out to be like exploding scales, with extremely sharp feather-like blades standing on end.
Seeing this, Ji Xun finally understood what the "720 flying feathers" displayed in the enlightenment meant.
This moon wheel has another form.
“That’s it.”
And looking at it, Ji Xun no wonder felt that he was inexplicably familiar before.
Aren’t these flying feathers the advanced version of my [Plague Doctor Scalpel]?
The same material and attributes come from the same source.
Ji Xun's scalpel was also obtained from the hands of Silver Moon believers at that time. Looking at it now, it turns out that the origin is here.
It is really a weapon inherited from the Silver Moon Sect.
"This relic still has spirituality."
Ji Xun was slightly surprised when he looked at it, but then his eyes were full of joy.
The spiritual relics are of extremely high grade, just like the [God Thief Ring] in his hand.
This strange weapon was guarding its owner. He probably knew that an outsider wanted to take it away, so he showed his "hostility".
Thanks to the fact that there is not much spirituality left, otherwise Ji Xun really doubts that it would automatically jump out to protect its master.
[Moon Wheel] exploded, and Ji Xun didn't take it by force.
This relic is an exclusive relic of the professional sequence. It requires the exclusive secret method of the Silver Moon Sect to activate it. It is really useless for others.
But I met Ji Xun.
He thought of something, and the spiritual tentacles that condensed the "Empty Moon Divine Thought" gently touched the moon wheel, trying to appease the little remaining spirituality.
As soon as the spiritual tentacles stretched out, a magical scene happened.
Yuelun immediately settled down.
The exploding flying feathers also calmed down and turned back into the smooth and beautiful Crescent Moon Soldier.
Ji Xun also saw the pollution enlightenment for the first time. Fortunately, he was not afraid of the pollution of his faith and touched the moon wheel with his hand.
Got it.
The original owner of this moon wheel has died, and the contract mark is now blank.
Ji Xun skillfully cut his finger and drew the contract runes on the moon wheel.
The mysterious runes lit up, and he immediately felt the implication of the blood contract.
I made a contract with a spiritual object. It is not a cold dead thing, but it can get a response.
Ji Xun felt like he had a puppy. After it recognized him as its master, it let out a "bark" sound.
It feels good.
After the contract was signed, he tried to override the Moon Wheel Warrior.
When the spiritual tentacle was picked up, it was like a slowly rising crescent moon, floating in the air and shining brightly.
The silver light illuminated Ji Xun's hidden and stunning face.
Ke immediately frowned.
This moon wheel is "too heavy" for his current mental strength.
It's very difficult to lift it up.
Difficult to control.
It is normal to think that it is the weapon of a top powerhouse.
Since the whole cannot be controlled, then separate it. As Ji Xun thought, the moon wheel clicked, and the flying feathers stood upright.
With his mind control, more than a dozen of them shot out, and he watched the cold light disappear before his eyes. In the blink of an eye, the thick black crystal not far away was smoothly broken into two pieces.
The terms "Invisible" and "Breaking Through the Sky" are more invisible, faster, and more confusing than a scalpel, making it difficult to detect.
“What a good thing!”
Ji Xun tried it and was very happy.
Unfortunately, the control difficulty is too high.
His current mental power is not very outstanding, and the number of distractions he can control is also very limited.
I am quite proficient with the six flying knives in my hand, but this moon wheel has a total of seven hundred and twenty.
Ji Xun’s current ability is far from enough.
“No wonder it’s exclusive to Silver Moon. I’m afraid I need to practice the ‘Sky Moon Divine Thought’ to perfection before I can fully control it.”
He sighed slightly.
But also thankful.
If the Silver Moon Mummy in the coffin can still fight, holding this moon wheel, I am afraid it will kill a large area.
It’s hard to imagine how many lives it would take to kill it.
Ji Xun was in a very happy mood after harvesting the treasure.
There is nothing else in the coffin.
Ji Xun came up with the idea of the golden coffin.
The legal level of the coffin itself is too high to be stuffed with a storage ring.
The outer coffin is several meters long and wide, so there is no way one person can move it away.
But the inner coffin is only the size of a person, so carrying it on your back is roughly equivalent to carrying a corpse, so it’s not a big problem.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun has already paid attention.
At this time, he looked up and looked at the angel heads floating in the sky, thought of something, and asked respectfully: "Senior, if you agree, I will take you out?"
Although he didn't know What exactly did Nanjing's ancestors arrange, but he thought that this head should not be left in the underground palace.
And the angel’s soul is now in his body, so it doesn’t seem to matter if he has multiple heads.
Wait until you meet Nan Jing and ask her how to deal with it.
As soon as these words came out, Ji Xun looked at the head without making any comment, as if he acquiesced.
He pointed to the golden inner coffin and suggested: "Or, can I ask you to stay in the coffin for a while?"
He didn't have a shroud or any other special sealing items on him, so he didn't dare to just carry a shroud with him. There is an angel head with strong pollution running around.
The golden coffin is just right to prevent pollution from leaking out.
The surroundings were quiet for a few breaths.
Perhaps sensing Ji Xun's kindness, the angel's head slowly fell down and landed in the coffin.
Ji Xun saw him agree and breathed a sigh of relief.
After muttering "offended" silently, he closed the coffin lid.
Thinking that the golden gem coffin was still too eye-catching, Ji Xun took out a bandage and wrapped it around the whole body of the coffin.
Then I got a strong strap so that it would be easier to carry on my body.
Ji Xun got the two treasures of the moon wheel and the golden insect effortlessly, and he was in a good mood.
Sure enough, good things depend on the nobles.
Especially the royal family.
Old man Xu was still looking at the stone monument of the Forbidden Ruins. He was in a confused state and didn't know when he would wake up.
Ji Xun didn’t bother.
After disposing of the contents of the golden coffin, this underground palace will be completely safe.
While collecting the trophies from the corpse, he devoured the extraordinary properties in the dark matter crystal.
In a blink of an eye, a whole day has passed.
The loot for six thousand people is too much.
Even if he didn't take those things of low value, Ji Xun was already "overwhelmed".
The storage ring given by Nanjing has been filled with various high-end items, books, potions, equipment and materials.
He also had hundreds of mercenary storage rings filled with supplies and packed together.
Ji Xun's current state of mind was filled with pleasure from the feeling of getting rich overnight.
And good things come in pairs, now Lv4’s [Devil’s Feast] is extremely efficient in devouring.
Three-dimensional attributes such as strength and physique have skyrocketed from 160+ to 270+.
This increase directly increased his physical combat power by several percent.
Now he felt that he had some chance of winning against some ordinary fifth-level card masters.
Although he has not yet reached the state where his fourth-level body is overflowing, the good news is that those [dark matter crystals] have only swallowed up a quarter of it.
The rest of Ji Xun cut it up and put it away, waiting to be slowly absorbed later.
During this period, Ji Xun has been pondering the mechanism of the tomb.
He felt that since it had been confirmed that the real imperial tomb was under the suspected tomb, there were other methods besides the spatial displacement used by those in the Southern Continent.
This is not a blind guess on his part.
It was because he had something special in his hand that pointedly proved his conjecture.
Throughout the whole day, Ji Xun carefully inspected almost every corner of the underground palace while packing up the loot.
Every brick, every mural, every symbol, and even the texture of the floor tiles were not missed
But I never found what I was looking for.
Ji Xun looked at his pocket watch and saw that it was evening.
He has been in this underground palace for fifteen hours.
Wisps of black extraordinary characteristics were continuously poured into his body. As he wandered around, he said to himself: "Is it possible that the location of the secret passage on the map is not this suspicious tomb, but somewhere else?"
As he spoke, he looked at the parchments that he had read countless times.
【Authentic Map of Augustus's Mausoleum】
Detailed explanation: The craftsmen who built the Mad King's mausoleum knew that they had no hope of survival, so they cleverly left a secret escape route while building the mausoleum. Along the tunnel, you can enter and exit the legendary tomb.
This is the prize that Nanjing drew after clearing the "Cemetery Maze".
I have never found the use of this map before.
Now that he saw that the architecture in this mausoleum was exactly the same as the maze in the cemetery, Ji Xun felt that this should be it.
But after searching for more than ten hours, I still couldn’t find the secret passage marked on the drawing.
He even doubted his own judgment.
"No. Since it is a secret passage, it must not be easily discovered."
With nothing to do, Ji Xun thought over and over again in his mind.
He had already walked through the entire underground palace, and was just thinking about whether to walk through the complicated maze outside.
Suddenly, Old Man Xu’s voice came from behind him. Complaints: "You guys are not thinking about how to get down, are you? Don't waste your time, there is no way to have that kind of passage. The construction of this mausoleum uses a very clever 'space mirror' design, and there will be no opportunities for people to take advantage of it unless You, like those guys before, can travel through space."
"Eh"
Ji Xun heard a flash of inspiration in his mind, as if he had caught something.
Normally speaking, there is nothing wrong with what the old man said.
When King Augustus built a mausoleum for himself, no one would go in and dig his own tomb.
After the tomb is closed, there will never be a door left for anyone to enter.
But this secret passage is the escape passage left by the craftsmen!
"Mirror space?"
Ji Xun suddenly caught the fleeting inspiration.
Although Old Man Xu seems unreliable, he is always reliable at critical moments.
He revealed the most important design of this maze in one sentence.
When Ji Xun thought of this, the 3D map of the underground palace that he had measured with his footsteps immediately appeared in his mind, and then he mirrored it and copied it, and that map was used.
He suddenly realized: "So that's it!"
Listening to Ji Xunxu's excited voice, Old Man Xu's face was full of question marks: "???"
Ji Xunkan Looking at him, he laughed and said: "Senior, thank you for your advice!"
Old man Xu's eyes were as wide as bells: What did I give you?
Ji Xun looked at the underground palace in front of him, and his eyes gradually deepened: "I think I may have found the entrance to the mausoleum!"
Old man Xu's expression was not very good: "You kid, you don't really want to go down there, do you?"
Ji Xun did not answer and asked: "Senior, have you recovered your memory?"
Old man Xu: "What?"
Dele, no need to ask, no.
Ji Xun also took it for granted and didn't say anything more.
He calculated the scale on the drawing in his mind, and then started walking along the floor tiles.
Go east seventy-five steps, turn right sixty degrees, then walk ninety steps, turn ninety degrees.
Follow a specific direction and walk a triangle.
Gradually, Ji Xun found that the space around him became as thick as liquid.
Seeing this scene, he was even more sure that his guess was in the right direction!
If you want to hide it under the eyes of the overseer, it is definitely not an ordinary secret passage.
Those craftsmen designed the space rules for utilizing the tomb, and designed a very clever and hidden secret passage.
This secret passage is not in the space he was in before.
But it is hidden in a place invisible to the naked eye.
"Found it!"
Following this method, after arriving at the predetermined location on the map, he saw a space crack suddenly appearing in the corner of the wall.
The secret passage is the gap between the real space and the mirror space!
At this time, a magical scene took place.
In Ji Xun's field of vision, there was still the dark underground palace, but Old Man Xu could no longer be seen.
This is another space.
He knew that he had found the real Augustus Imperial Tomb.
Ji Xun walked back along the same path. He happened to look at the ghostly expression on old man Xu and asked in great astonishment: "Ji Xun boy, why did you disappear while walking just now?"
Ji Xun smiled brightly: "Senior, I have found the entrance to the mausoleum."
This secret passage can not only go in, but also come out.
In other words, he has an absolute advantage that no one in the Southern Continent has!
