Having opened the hidden door on the other side, Skeleton Brother and the High Priest cautiously advanced inside. They had initially thought the space wouldn't be very large, but they discovered it was incredibly large! It was comparable to the main hall outside. The surrounding walls were covered in murals, and upon closer inspection, they discovered they were all depicting snakemen, though they couldn't seem to find the main one.

What they saw was roughly that one day, a snake-man who looked like a snake-man leader was bowing to a man in a black robe who was holding a staff in his hand. However, because it was a mural, the description was not very detailed. There were some dense runes that seemed to tell the story of these murals, but they could not understand it at all.

You can only understand it by looking at the pictures.

The man stood at the top of the stairs. Under his command, buildings rose from the ground. This group of snake people even had their own civilization. The spells of those snake people all came from the man standing at the highest position. If Wu Ye was here, he would definitely be familiar with this figure.

The story progresses to this temple, where the leader of the snake people seems to be praying to the man to gain other knowledge. Later, he built an altar and constructed something underground that was described as the sun.

Thanks to the efforts of the snake wizards, they finally succeeded in completely moving the snake people's city away from the sun. The mural ended here, and there was a stone platform in the middle of the room, on which seemed to be something.

"Isn't this the altar in some mural?"

The high priest shone the holy light flashlight on the stone platform.

But it was too far away to see clearly.

"Probably not, but I have a bad feeling. It's better to be careful."

Skeleton Brother took out his weapon and was about to stand in front of the high priest, but who would have thought that the high priest would just walk forward.

"Buzz!~~~"

The stone brick under the high priest's feet began to sink under the influence of gravity.

The mechanism is activated!

"Kakaka!"

The high priest, noticing something was wrong, quickly hid behind the Skeleton Brother and said nothing.

"I told you to be careful... you kid."

"Shhhhhh!"

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Arrows shot from somewhere unknown flew towards Skeleton Brother and the High Priest from all directions, and it seemed that they were not just attacking the location where the trap was originally triggered.

Skeleton Brother waved his greatsword to block most of the arrows, but he was still hit in many places. Fortunately, these arrows did not cause much damage due to Skeleton Brother's high defense, basically like a mosquito bite, not painful at all.

The high priest's robe was full of arrows.

If Wu Ye were here, he would definitely complain, "Prime Minister! I borrowed some arrows!"

"are you OK?"

The shooting of arrows stopped, and Skeleton Brother asked.

The high priest who had been silent just now finally couldn't help it.

"Who the hell set these traps?! Let me catch you and I'll beat the hell out of you!"

Brother Skeleton had never seen the high priest so irritable before. It was too abstract. But looking at the roar from his little mouth that looked like it was covered with honey, it seemed that he had learned a lot from Wu Ye.

"Alright, alright. It's normal for places like this to have some traps. Just be careful next time. It seems these attacks aren't fatal, and they're mostly there to stop people from moving forward. It seems the thing on the stone platform isn't simple, but the more it's like that, the more curious I become."

Skeleton Brother's interest was piqued. Is this what it means, the more you resist, the more excited I become?

"Ahem... Big Brother, you know I'm usually very ladylike... Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said... Okay?"

Skeleton Brother was silent, then touched the head of the high priest behind him and nodded.

"Next, I'll go and discuss the truth. You can just stand by and assist me."

As soon as Brother Skeleton finished speaking, he took a step forward and rushed forward.

"Boooooooh!!"

This time, the arrows were fired without even stepping on the mechanism, and the positions of these arrows were as if they had eyes, and even the Skeleton Brother moving at high speed could be locked onto them.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

The Skeleton Brother, whose path was blocked by arrows, had to stop and sweep away the arrows. The high priest was very cooperative and added a blessing of honor, and then healed the Skeleton Brother.

It lasted for about half a minute, and Skeleton Brother's health bar dropped by a quarter, even though many arrows had pierced through his bones.

Finding no other movement, Skeleton Brother took two tentative steps forward, and then no more traps were set off, which made him bolder. Originally, this stone platform was about 20 to 30 meters away from him, and it should have taken only a few seconds to reach it. However, the arrow just now came too fast, so he was forced to stop halfway.

"Brother, I have a question."

After being questioned by the high priest in his soul, Skeleton Brother turned to look at the high priest.

"Why should I continue to be shot by arrows while you charge ahead?!"

I saw the high priest leaning against the wall, with arrows sticking all around him and even in the gaps between his bones, but none of them hit his body.

"Sorry, sorry, this is out of my control."

He said this, but his feet did not stop. As he got closer and closer to the stone platform, Skeleton Brother finally saw clearly what was placed on it, because his previous view was blocked.

It was something similar to a pen holder, with a dark green dagger wrapped in black air stuck on it.

------

Just when Skeleton Brother was about to continue observing, he discovered that a new trap had been triggered.

“Sizzle~!!”

"Boom boom boom!"

"Shhhhhh!"

Various sounds were heard, green mist seeped out from the surrounding walls, the ceiling above made a lot of electric sounds, and the sound of something breaking came from under the feet.

"Run!!!!"

Realizing that the magical elements were extremely abundant, as if they could not be held back and were about to be released immediately, Skeleton Brother took the ritual blade and shot out. However, the place where he was standing a second ago was already engulfed in a sea of ​​fire. Lightning kept striking down from the ceiling above his head, and the surrounding poisonous fog exploded under the burning flames.

In this split second, sparks and lightning appeared behind Skeleton Brother. Before the high priest could react, he carried the high priest on his back and ran out.
