The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

And in those places, the movement of the body breaks apart.

In the midst of the turmoil, the mother and son worked together, and the fortunate ones were able to overcome the difficulties and achieve their goals.

"Go quickly!"

Seeing this, Fang Yun gave a cold shout, urging the three of them to go up into the cave, while he himself turned around with his sword drawn.

Swah...

With a single, gentle sword stroke, he slew a small, narrow creature that was near the cave entrance.

Upon seeing this, the three brothers, Partridge Whistle and his companions, dared not delay. After throwing the bronze box onto the cave entrance, the three of them leaped towards the entrance one after another.

(The plot has been slightly altered, please forgive me... If it hadn't been changed, it would have seemed no different from the original novel and other tomb raiding books.)

(Actually, rewriting and modifying it myself wasn't as convenient as following the original setting, so I spent more time trying to create something fresh and avoid clichés.) (Extended)

Chapter 84 Unveiling the Ecology, Breaking the Cypress and the Sea

"Fang Yun, come up here quickly!"

Chop off a few juveniles, and then...

Fang Yun also reacted to the sound, turned around abruptly, used the rock wall for leverage, and jumped directly to the cave entrance.

boom! boom! boom!

At the same time, Partridge Whistle fired his two pistols, blasting away the hordes of enemies who had leaped up with Fang Yun.

Fang Yun looked back and saw that at this moment, the girl was standing there, her face pale and her body trembling. She was surrounded by a strange, indistinct figure.

All the spiders were... at least several thousand humanoid spiders!

This box, the wooden board, the dragging, the strong apple rose, the father's machine, the filthy food, the words of the keeper.

However, these weapons, forged through the art of imperial pincers, are not easily defeated. They are like weapons that can be used to cut down enemies, or weapons that can be used to kill someone.

But the problem is that the body of the deceased still carries traces of blood, and the infant has already begun to emerge from the body, which is a sign of impending doom.

That female swan is clever and beautiful, but she is also very busy and noisy. She is ...

boom! boom! boom!

"There are so many of these, how are we supposed to fight them!"

Watching the tadpoles leaping towards the cave entrance, I couldn't help but exclaim in delight.

Upon seeing that... (The text abruptly ends here, suggesting an incomplete sentence or a missing section.)

"This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We can hold off this enemy here. But if we attack the enemy's stronghold, that's the real problem!"

Partridge Whistle let out a cold shout, pulling the triggers of his two pistols. His marksmanship was extraordinary; each bullet was enough to kill a small, monstrous creature.

Fortunately, they had plenty of gunpowder on them; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to use those guns at all.

At this moment, Fang Yun took the Dragon-Tiger Short Staff from Partridge Whistle and said to the three of them:

"You should stop these evil spirits first, then..."

At this moment, gunshots rang out. It was unclear whether the three of them heard them. After taking the Dragon Tiger Short Staff, Fang Yun went to the bronze box.

After a moment's thought, Fang Yun pressed the dragon head of the dragon-tiger short staff into the dragon head lock of the bronze box.

Click...

After turning it once, a soft sound rang out from the bronze box.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun's lips curled up, and he pulled the Dragon-Tiger Short Staff outwards.

Wow...

As the dragon-tiger short staff was drawn, a stream of dirty water seeped from the dragon head lock, and then the entire bronze box trembled.

　(bjbd) Now, looking at the bronze box again, you can see the gap in the opening.

The opening of the bronze box, located beneath the copper nail heads, forms a wavy pattern, resembling the opening of a clamshell.

Previously, the bronze box had been left for too long and had been stained with the blood and flesh of the daphnia, making the opening difficult to see. Now that the mechanism has been activated, the opening has been shaken open.

With the Dragon Bone Dagger in hand, Fang Yun pried directly at the seam of the box, and in just two breaths, the lid of the bronze box was lifted off.

The bronze box was divided into three compartments, all of which were filled with blackish, sticky sewage that smelled fishy; it must have been the putrid bodily fluids of the worm.

At this moment, Fang Yun didn't care about hygiene anymore. He reached out three times and took out all the items from the three compartments.

They consisted of a leather bag, a celadon jar, and a wooden box.

With a light sweep, Fang Yun tossed the pouch aside. It seemed to contain the bones of some mountain god, which were of no help to the current situation, and he had no interest in collecting human bones.

Inside the celadon jar was a piece of clear water, and a jade carving the size of a fist was submerged in the water.

The jade carving looked like amber, with a fetus-like shape in the center, though it resembled a human infant, instead looking more like the stamens in the cave.

Then, upon opening the last wooden box, one finds a blue three-legged toad, about the size of a fist, carved with remarkable realism, almost lifelike.

boom!boom!

Fang Yun smirked and smashed the three-legged toad and jade carving to pieces with twenty blows.

When the jade carving was smashed, the unfinished piece even moved slightly, as if trying to escape, but it was met with another bullet.

After destroying those two items, Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, took out twenty rounds, and helped Partridge Whistle and the other two.

Partridge Whistle and the other two also saw Fang Yun's earlier actions, but the situation was critical at the moment, so they didn't have time to ask Fang Yun.

boom! boom! boom!

Four men and eight guns fired simultaneously, and for a moment, the sound of gunfire echoed and reverberated.

After guarding the cave entrance for about a minute, Hua stopped firing and said something with some surprise.

"Fang Yun, Senior Brother, those... (The sentence is incomplete and lacks context, so a direct translation isn't possible.)"

"That's right, it's just slowed down." Upon hearing this, Fang Yun smiled and nodded.

Just as I predicted! The plot really didn't lie to me!

After Partridge Whistle and Old Foreigner emptied two more magazines, they also stopped.

Previously, both of them were blinded by rage and hadn't paid much attention, but now, upon closer inspection, they realized that those [unclear text - possibly a fragment from a larger document] were actually [unclear text - possibly a fragment from a larger document], dragging and pulling [unclear text - possibly a fragment from a larger document], moving [unclear text - possibly a fragment from a larger document], ...

Thinking about it, both of them looked at Fang Yun with puzzled expressions.

Thinking about it, this is all about the hidden wood and the secrets of life.

Seeing the two's questioning looks, Fang Yun smiled. After confirming the contents of the cave, he then proceeded to investigate.

“What I destroyed before were those demon mothers, which you can understand as manipulating the brains of demons. Once the demons were destroyed, the magic could not continue.”

"And that three-legged toad, it was made from a meteorite. Remember the stone mountain we saw when we entered the valley? Those two stone mountains should also be meteorites, but this three-legged toad was made from meteorite essence refined from meteorites."

"I suspect there were more than two meteorites from outer space..."

Subsequently, Fang Yun analyzed the magnetic field conditions of this location and the surrounding soil.

After Fang Yun finished speaking, the three of them suddenly realized what was going on, and Partridge Whistle immediately exclaimed in amazement:

"So this is why the venomous insects and beasts within the Insect Valley are so enormous and incredibly poisonous. Even the red and white poisonous miasma guarding the tomb is due to these ancient strange insects and..."

"Such a mysterious and harmonious environment... King Xian really went to great lengths to guard the tomb."

"Of course." Fang Yun pursed his lips and said with a smile, "If I were the Prince Xian, I could build this Prince Xian's tomb even bigger, eliminating any possibility of it being robbed."

In fact, every tomb owner thinks the same way, but the abilities of the tomb owners vary, and not everyone can set up sophisticated anti-theft measures.

King Xian and his high priest were indeed both talented individuals.

"In other words, that lazy, unyielding creature, along with its treacherous branches, is a symbol of its power and influence. It's a case of 'forgiveness!'"

"Destroying the meteorite will cause a cataclysmic change in the earth, killing everything in this valley. That way, we won't encounter any giant snakes or fish on our way back?"

At this moment, the old foreigner, after a moment of thought, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shared his conclusion.

"It won't be that serious, but a chaotic magnetic field can lead to..."

He had only spoken halfway when he saw the old foreigner wearing an expression of utter bewilderment and awe. Seeing this, Fang Yun nodded helplessly and said:

"That's right, just as you thought, this is a... [unintelligible text]!"

(Starship Troopers, a 97 sci-fi movie, highly recommended!)

Chapter 85: Meeting Immortals in the Clouds, Celestial Palace in the Heavens!

During the two minutes that Fang Yun was explaining, those previously frantic people...

Walking on the rocky beach was barely faster than a tortoise crawling, and those who hadn't yet made a sound were also completely still.

It seems that it won't be long before these infants completely disappear.

After eating some dried meat on the spot, the four of them set off again.

The opening at the bottom of this gourd-shaped cave leading to the outside is very long, about a hundred meters. The cave is very damp, with puddles and depressions underfoot, and water droplets constantly dripping from the ceiling.

Whoosh... boom...

Once inside the cave, you can still hear the deafening sounds of water falling and flowing outside.

Hearing the sound of water, all four of them thought of a waterfall.
