Something's wrong with my roommate

Chapter 525 The Difference Between the Two Lingzi Tombs
Warren Island, a spectacular building built on top of a hill, looks like a palace overlooking the entire city below.

In the luxurious study of the manor, Zhi Dong sat behind the desk, crossed his hands and fell into deep thought.

The silver-white long hair moves without wind, scattered with pieces of ice, as beautiful as the stars.

There was a man and a woman standing in front of the desk. The man's name was Isaac, a handsome blond man, and the woman's name was Margaret. She looked like a lady in terms of temperament and dress.

Zhidong doesn't have many cronies. The two people in front of her are the few cronies she brought from the headquarters of the Celestial Clan. After receiving her blessing, they are all four-level power users who are only one step away from becoming super power users. They are powerful. .

This morning, the old professor had deciphered the secret left by Yekashenko and found the specific location of the hero's tomb.

The two cronies in front of her were preparing to go to the Hero's Tomb according to her order to retrieve the power of the God Eater.

Zhidong called the two of them into the study, and wanted to tell them a few words, but for some reason, after the two came here, they kept silent.

Seeing that Zhi Dong seemed to be thinking, the two subordinates didn't dare to disturb them at all, they could only stand quietly, even if the cold temperature in the study made them feel uncomfortable, they didn't dare to make a sound rashly.

After a long time, Zhidong suddenly said, "Forget it. I'll go with you."

The two men were taken aback, and Isaac hurriedly said, "How can I bother you to do it yourself?"

In their hearts, although the Hero's Tomb matter is very important, it is not so important that the highest ruler, Zhidong, needs to go out in person.

"You don't understand, if I don't go in person, I'm afraid you will never return."

Facing the two cronies, Zhidong's attitude was quite kind. She remembered that a few days ago she had sensed that strange power that might not be inferior to herself and the goddess of winter.

Regarding this, she felt a little uneasy in her heart, so she made such a decision and planned to go with her.

Zhi Dong has a general understanding of what is hidden in the Hero's Tomb, and knows that this thing must not fall into the hands of the Goddess of Winter, otherwise she will have to ask other brothers and sisters for help. It is absolutely unacceptable.

Seeing that Zhidong had already made up his mind, Isaac and Margaret didn't dare to ask more questions.

"lets go."

With a wave of Zhi Dong's hand, a gust of wind and snow appeared in the study room, instantly enveloping the three of them, spinning like a tornado.

When the wind and snow disappeared, the three of them had disappeared without a trace.

……

A transport plane shuttled through the clouds at high speed.

In the cabin, Xu Cheng and Bai Yuelin were whispering, Diwana tried to strike up a conversation with Lingo, but every time she could only get a neutral response.

But she still refused to give up, not only to get in touch with Lingo, but also to distract her excitement.

By deciphering the research results left by Yekashenko, she not only found the specific location, but also realized what she was looking for, which was by no means comparable to the ancient tombs or dilapidated ruins she had explored before.

This may be the highlight of her career, and it is the kind that has never been seen before or since. Of course, she will be very excited.

Sumei Island is hundreds of kilometers away from Kherson, and it took about an hour for the transport plane to finally send the three of them to their destination.

There is no airport or road here, and the transport plane cannot land. It can only hover in the air and let the passengers find their own way to land.

Xu Cheng jumped down from the sky with the three of them, and landed safely under the dumbfounded eyes of the pilot. After watching the transport plane go away, he began to look at the surrounding environment.

The climate here is relatively warm. Although it is winter, the ground is not frozen, and there are even a lot of vegetation, but it is dry and lacks water.

According to the clues left by Yekashenko, they need to find a place called Rodhikav first.

Divana carried a detailed map of Ukraine with her, and compared it with the electromagnetic induction in Xu Cheng's mind, she could immediately find the exact location of Rojivka.

The transport plane dropped the four on the bank of a river called the Desna River.

Xu Cheng led the three of them to move upstream along the banks of the Desna River, and it didn't take long to find Rojivka.

This is a village in Ukraine, not even a town, with an area of ​​only one square kilometer and a population of just over 300.

When the four of them came here, all they saw were ruins and ruins. After the disaster happened, the people here ran to their deaths, and it had long since become an uninhabited ruin.

After entering the ruins, Diwana stood in the center of the village and quickly found out the exact direction according to the data left by Yekasenke and the specific location and local characteristics.

The three of Xu Cheng followed Diwana's ass, left Rojikaf, and returned to the Desna River again.

"found it!"

Diwana suddenly excitedly raised her finger forward, and the three of them looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a big tree growing on the other side of the river.

According to the clues left by Yekashenko, the entrance to the Tomb of Heroes is just under the big tree. No wonder Diwana was so excited.

The four of them crossed the river and came under the big tree.

This big tree has a history of hundreds of years at first glance. The trunk is so big that it takes three adults to hug it. Half of the roots are on the bank and half are in the river.

"I'll go down and have a look first."

Before Xu Cheng could speak, Diwana volunteered, dropped her belongings, and plunged into the river.

The remaining three could only wait patiently on the bank, seeing some bubbles appearing from the river surface from time to time.

After about a few minutes, with a lot of air bubbles, Diwana emerged from the river and said excitedly: "We found the entrance!"

Although the temperature here is relatively warm now, it is winter after all, and the river water is also bitingly cold. Bai Yuelin and Lin Po are not the kind of strong people, and rushing down the river is no joke for them.

This was not a problem for Xu Cheng at all. Just like protecting Evelyn in the underground river last time, he directly wrapped the two of them in shadow to isolate the cold river water.

"what about me?"

Diwana pointed to herself.

Xu Cheng glanced at her. Because he had just stepped into the river, his clothes were tightly attached to his body, revealing a dry and fit figure.

"You are so strong, do you still need it?"

"I call it healthy, not strong."

Diwana silently accused Xu Cheng of double standards with her eyes, but she just didn't care too much.

After getting ready, a group of people started to go down the river.

There are a large number of thick tree roots distributed under the river, which are almost denser than spider webs. It is no wonder that the entrance is hidden here, but no one has discovered it for so many years.

It was also an accident that Yekashenko was able to find out.

One year, the Desna River dried up, exposing the root system under the big tree. A nearby villager found a dark hole hidden in the root system. hell.

The villagers did not dare to go deep, but picked up a very strange coin in the cave.

The coin circulated in the hands of the villagers, entered the antique market, and finally fell into Yekashenko's hands by accident.

Yekashenko discovered that this long-standing coin did not belong to any ancient dynasty recorded in history. He invested a lot of manpower, material resources and time, and finally found the old villagers and learned about the cave under the big tree.

Based on the fragmented folklore nearby, Yekashenko guessed that there should be a mysterious relic hidden in the entrance of the cave, and then formed an expedition team to check it out.

These stories were recorded in his research results in a secret way, and Diwana didn't know until they deciphered them.

Under the guidance of Diwana, the four quickly found the entrance of the cave hidden in the dense tree roots.

Diwana, who wrapped herself in nitrogen armor, touched in first, and the rest followed behind her.

This pitch-black cave is slanted downwards, at least nearly 200 meters deep, and ordinary people can't dive so far, and there is still a lot of water pressure inside.

Xu Cheng couldn't see Diwana's slow moving way. He released electromagnetic induction, just like underwater radar, and quickly figured out the structure inside through the reflected electromagnetic waves, and then led the three of them quickly in the Move in the cave.

After passing through the long underwater cave, the four of them emerged from the water, and they couldn't see clearly in front of them in pitch blackness.

Xu Cheng ignited the flame to dispel the darkness, and what appeared in front of the four people was a dark tunnel slightly higher than the water surface.

The tunnel is arched, and the ground and walls are made of neat bricks and stones. It can be seen at a glance that it is a man-made building, and it is extremely old.

Diwana's eyes lit up: "This is it!"

The four of them went ashore, only to find some sundries piled up near the entrance of the tunnel. These things were decayed and tattered, but they could barely be identified as some equipment for survival and exploration. They should have been left by Yekashenko's expedition team. something down.

After resting for a while, the four of them walked along the tunnel, the sound of their footsteps echoing in the darkness.

As the distance deepened, some mysterious murals appeared on both sides of the tunnel, describing some incomprehensible scenes.

Diwana was fascinated by it. If Xu Cheng hadn't urged her, she would have leaned over the wall to take a closer look. Bai Yuelin was also looking at these murals with great interest. Only Lingo, like Xu Cheng, couldn't understand them. The murals are not of interest.

After going deep into the tunnel, a strange smell suddenly came, and then, a highly decomposed corpse appeared in front of the four of them.

The body was facing outward and appeared to be preparing to flee.

Diwana didn't think it was dirty at all, she squatted down and put on gloves to check it, and then concluded: "It was hacked to death. Could it be that the expedition team had an internal collision?"

Xu Cheng had a different opinion: "Probably not."

Diwana didn't expect Xu Cheng to question her professional level: "Why not?"

"Because the murderer has come."

As soon as Xu Cheng finished speaking, everyone heard a slight clicking sound, like the sound of some kind of metal hitting a stone.
Xu Cheng threw the flame in his hand forward, forming a long flame, dispelling the darkness ahead.

The other three turned their heads to look, and by the light of the fire, they saw the source of the sound.

This is a skeleton in armor, but it should not be human, because it is more than three meters tall, and it may be some kind of giant humanoid creature.

This armored skeleton holding a huge axe, with green eyes shining, noticed Xu Cheng's living creatures, and immediately rushed towards them with a speed comparable to a car driving at high speed.

The decaying giant ax was dragged to the ground by it, and a series of sparks and harsh sounds came out.

With such speed and strength alone, he has already reached the third level of ability user.

Before the skeleton could wait, a sharp shadow approached and flashed past its face.

The skeleton that had been split in half ran forward a few more steps before it fell to the ground and turned into broken bones.

Diwana's heart instantly relaxed, and she laughed at herself for being overly nervous. With a strong man like Xu Cheng present, this place is as safe as a kindergarten.

Compared with her, Bai Yuelin and Lingo were much calmer, and had no intention of making a move at all.

Everyone continued to move forward, and soon found that there were a lot of forks in the tunnel. If you don't pay attention, you will get lost, and there are a lot of undead monsters wandering around in the dark, not only skeletons, but also zombies, ghosts, and some kind of snot Worm-like disgusting monster.

The skeleton is the weakest among them, and the strongest monster is even equivalent to a fourth-level ability user.

However, although these monsters are numerous, they are no different from miscellaneous soldiers in front of Xu Cheng. His thunder chaotic energy naturally restrains these dark things.

Along the way, Diwana was terrified. With so many monsters, even if she gathered a group of capable people to explore, she might have to drink her hatred on the spot.

At the same time, he was extremely fortunate to have hugged Xu Cheng's thigh. The only dissatisfaction was that he was too much, and he didn't have any adventure experience at all. Instead, he seemed to be on an outing.

After passing through the network of underground tunnels, a piece of darkness blocked the way, and it was completely impossible to see what was inside.

Xu Cheng directly released a huge flame, flew over the void and formed a fireball, emitting a powerful light like the sun, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

A huge underground cavity appeared in the eyes of the four, at least half the size of a football field, and its shape was similar to that of a basin, presenting a terrain that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.

Under the light of the fire, you can see a large amount of wreckage piled up under the hollow, just like a mass grave or a certain battlefield.

"Look there!"

Diwana's excited voice sounded, and the three of them looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a stone door at the bottom of the cave.

The height of the door is almost seven meters high, and its appearance looks like stone. The two doors are carved with intricate reliefs, resembling some kind of snake-like creature.

On both sides of the door stood two slightly shorter statues—Xu Cheng, who had already experienced it, knew that they were the corpses of two giants with weapons in their hands and full body armor.

At first glance, the environment here is almost exactly the same as the Lingzi Tomb discovered in Japan. The only difference is that the corpses at the bottom of the cavity should be inside the Lingzi Tomb.

An open space was cleared in front of the stone gate, several tents were set up, and there were many decomposed corpses lying around, which should be Yekashenko's expedition team,
According to the records Yekashenko left in the research materials, they stayed in this place for a long time and conducted various research and investigations. At first, nothing happened, but when they tried to open the stone gate, the wreckage piled up at the gate Suddenly came alive and began to slaughter the expedition team.

The only Yekashenko who escaped was very remorseful. If he hadn't insisted on opening the stone gate, perhaps these people would not have died.

This is why he insisted on making these secrets public, because he did not want the sacrifice of the expedition to be buried.

When everyone came to the stone gate, Xu Cheng and Bai Yuelin looked at each other. Sure enough, the stone gate was not opened, and there was no spiritual wind blowing from it, which was completely different from the spiritual tombs in Japan.

Diwana excitedly looked at the hundreds of words on the stone gate, as if seeing the most perfect artwork, she was deeply attracted in an instant.

A woman like her is full of "tough guy" style from the inside to the outside, but she didn't expect her hobby to be such an unpopular major as archaeology.

Xu Cheng asked, "How long will it take to decipher these words?"

Diwana said without looking back: "Give me three hours is enough."

She had already seen the photos of Shimen. The deciphering of these mysterious words on Shimen started a long time ago, but the last part has not been deciphered yet.

This is why Diwana dared to assert that the method of opening the door was recorded on the stone door, because she had already understood most of it.

Xu Cheng felt that there was a big difference between the two Lingzi tombs. The door of the Japanese Lingzi tomb had a warning and a curse engraved on it, but this second Lingzi tomb had the method of opening the door engraved on the door. It's like welcoming everyone to the grave.

Is it a trap?
Diwana stood guard in front of the stone gate and started to decipher. Xu Cheng called Bai Yuelin and Lingo to dispose of all the nearby corpses and dig a pit to bury them.

Although these people came to explore together because of Yekashenko's high salary, they are also pioneers in a sense.

Without their sacrifices, perhaps this tomb of heroes would never see the light of day.

In order to express his gratitude, Xu Cheng did not cremate them, but buried them in peace, although I don't know if they paid attention to this.

Then there was the waiting time. Bai Yuelin even participated in Diwana's deciphering work, and I don't know how she understood it. Only Xu Cheng and Lin Po, two scumbags, reported to the group together to keep warm.

Xu Cheng quietly asked Lin Po: "When are you going to go back?"

Lin Po shook her head: "I don't know, it depends on whether Rin can find her own clan and break the seal on her body."

"Then you won't be too bored on the road?"

Lingo is a person who likes to be quiet and doesn't like to walk around, but he has been dragged around by Bai Yuelin for the past few months.

Lingo knew what Xu Cheng was worried about: "It's okay to be bored, it's good to look around like this, and Lin is so weak, I have to protect her."

Xu Cheng patted her head: "Thank you for your hard work."

"Don't touch my head, my hair will be messed up."

Ringo clapped his hands away complaining.

Bai Yuelin listened to the whispered conversation of the two closest relatives, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Two hours passed in a blink of an eye, and Diwana's deciphering work had come to an end, only a few words were still missing.

"Well, why is it snowing?"

Lin Po, who was doing nothing, suddenly found a snowflake falling beside him.

She raised her head and found that in this underground cavity, it was snowing at some time, and there were snowflakes everywhere.

But this is simply impossible, not to mention that there is no snow in this area, even if it snows, it is impossible to fall into this underground cavity hundreds of meters above the ground.

But snowflakes do exist in front of them, not hallucinations.

Xu Cheng turned around and looked back the way he came.

"Because we have guests coming, Xuexue is just saying hello."

　Today is the long-lost Wanchang.
