Although these skeletons could disintegrate and reassemble themselves, Qin An soon discovered something was wrong. The densely packed skeletons caused problems with their self-assembly.

That's it in a nutshell.

Many skeletons were pieced together to form two right hands, and many skeletons had other people's shinbones pieced together to form necks. Some skeletons even had two skulls pieced together to form their own thighs.

Looking around...

These skeletons are no different from those of deformed individuals.

【Huh? x99999999】

[Hahaha—I'm dying of laughter! I thought these skeletons were experts even Qin An couldn't handle! Turns out they're just weaklings!]

[Well... you might say they're weak! They can even disintegrate themselves to avoid Brother Qin An's sword energy! But you might also say they're incredibly powerful! They can't even distinguish their own arms and legs!]

Between a skilled skeleton and a regular skeleton... we call it a mid-level skeleton.

[Damn it... I don't know if it's just my imagination! Give me a dog-beating stick! I could hold off a thousand men single-handedly!]

I can do it too!

Come on! Even ants can kill an elephant! These skeletons may not be very agile and are a bit clumsy, but if it really came down to a fight, how could you possibly win against so many skeletons?

..............................................

Qin An also felt there was no need to waste any more time on these skeletons. He told Jiang Liuli and Gu Wuyan, who were staying by his side, to go inside quickly. Then he locked the Nine Stars Shining Sun mechanism again!

"Kekeke..."

As the stone wall slowly closed.

Qin An darted inside.

He peered through the slowly closing gap at the somewhat comical skeletons... Although these guys were weak! But he still couldn't understand why he had thrown the corpse-raising ring back to them.

But why do they keep chasing after them?

Could it be that... someone hasn't thrown away the corpse-raising ring yet?

The thought flashed through Qin An's mind for only a moment before disappearing instantly, because he had just seen everyone make the throwing motion, and he had already explained it very clearly.

This thing is a corpse-raising ring!

It has no value for collection.

Surely no one would be foolish enough to treat this as a souvenir?

But then he thought that these skeletons probably couldn't open the Nine Stars Shining Sun mechanism, so Qin An stopped wasting his brain cells thinking about it. He and Jiang Liuli and Gu Wuyan quickly caught up with the rest of the archaeological team ahead.

"Brother Qin An... how is it? Those skeletons shouldn't be able to get in, right?" Xie Wenjing quickly took out a meat floss bread from her backpack and handed it to Qin An.

Qin An was taken aback for a moment.

He then accepted the gift and thanked the man, only then realizing that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet! The four women beside him, including Jiang Liuli and Gu Wuyan, were also visibly taken aback!

Oops!

They had also forgotten that Qin An hadn't eaten breakfast!

Qin An tore open the packaging of the pork floss bread, took a bite, and then nodded, saying, "The mechanism of the Nine Stars Shining the Sun requires the positions of the Ziwei Star and the Wuqu Star to be switched, and the angle of the Sun Star must also be readjusted before the stone wall can be opened! There's no way those skeletons can get in!"

Upon hearing that such a complex mechanism was needed to open the heavy stone door, the members of the archaeological team visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Qin An had eaten her meat floss bread and responded to her question, Xie Wenjing really wanted to take the opportunity to chat with Qin An a little more.

But after catching a glimpse of Jiang Liuli and Gu Wuyan pretending not to care, Xie Wenjing changed her mind. She knew the importance of knowing when to stop and not biting off more than she could chew.

Don’t say anything else.

Xie Wenjing was certain that she was far more memorable to Qin An than to her best friend Wang Yanyan.

In this regard.

Qin An asked: Wang Yanyan? Who is that? Is there such a person in our team?

Qin An was still eating breakfast.

Hu Jizhou, who was walking at the front, simply stopped and let Qin An finish his breakfast before continuing. Qin An wanted to say that he could eat while walking, but since everyone had already stopped, he couldn't say anything more.

While Qin An was having breakfast.

The group began to look around the passageway. Although the passageway was quite spacious, it had not taken much time to build.

The surrounding area is mostly exposed basalt blocks, with only a small portion of the basalt having been sealed and bonded using a mixture of lime, sand, and clay.

And somehow.

Everyone standing in this passageway felt it was very damp!

Even breathing smells musty; the air is much more humid than I imagined.

"It's so dark and damp here... Could there be centipedes or rats?" Yang Lele walked up to a wall that wasn't sealed with mortar and cement and stood there.

Zhang Sitian quietly walked up behind her, whispered into Yang Lele's ear, "There's a giant centipede!"

"what--"

Whether it was the giant centipede that frightened Yang Lele, or Zhang Sitian's voice that was too sudden, Yang Lele was so scared that she ran away with her head in her hands.

His disheveled appearance made the archaeological team members burst into laughter.

He realized he had been tricked.

Yang Lele, looking like she was about to cry, snuggled into Jiang Liuli's arms.

[Hahahaha... It has to be my sweet wife! She's so resourceful! She practically treats Yang Lele like a Japanese person!]

[666 If Jiang Liuli weren't here! Yang Lele would just shrink into Qin An's arms and cry! Wouldn't you explode?]

[Are Lele's fans fantasizing again? Our Sitian is so approachable! Even if Brother Qin An is incredibly selfless and loving, Sitian should still be the one to go first, okay?]

[I'm neutral...I'm not taking sides! But you know how popular Zhang Sitian is! I'm on Zhang Sitian's side this time! I support Sitian in fighting Lele!]

What if? What if Brother Qin An likes younger women?

【impossible! Absolutely impossible! 】

[Exactly! No matter how much Brother Qin An likes the younger one, the child shouldn't suffer!]

What just rolled over my face?
