Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

Wei Wuxian wore a cloak with gold thread patterns, which resembled the mysterious stars hidden inside the cloak, inviting people to explore and uncover the secrets within.

Bathed in the dappled sunlight of twilight, the dark patterns, though seemingly scattered, possess a unified spirit. A closer look reveals a vermilion bird spreading its wings in flight.

At first glance, the most striking sight is the intertwined and ever-growing golden mandrake and spider lily, adding to Wei Wuxian's sense of danger, as if the Grim Reaper, ready to reap lives at any moment, is slowly walking towards the mine in the afterglow of the setting sun.

That cloak, seemingly woven from contradictory elements, was a unique design given to Wei Wuxian by the Ghost Spirit Sect members when they were designing their uniforms in the system space. When they went out together, it was immediately obvious who was in the center!

?(?ˊ?ˋ)?* ??

Indeed, just as they expected, when it was worn by Wei Wuxian, it displayed a wonderful harmony, complementing each other perfectly.

It is like a guardian in the night, silently hiding the Vermilion Bird, which symbolizes heat and sunlight, in the shadows.

The red spider lily and the mandrake flower, which represent indifference, despair, and death, are merely a disguise. As long as you get close enough, they can radiate genuine goodwill.

You'll find that what looks intimidating is actually a soft-hearted, adorable lava chocolate, bittersweet! ↘

?°(°ˉ??ˉ?°)°?

His face was covered by a dreamlike, butterfly-shaped mask that seemed to emanate a chilling aura from crystal, obscuring Wei Wuxian's incomparably handsome features.

Who would have thought? The reason Wei Wuxian didn't follow the uniform formation and chose to wear full-face masks was—"The covered area is too large, it interferes with my speaking and eating, it's so suffocating~"

(???ve v???)

Wei Wuxian deliberately used his divine sense to probe the group of pirate island dwarf rats behind him, intentionally controlling his speed to maintain a close distance from them.

They wanted to surround them, but couldn't catch up; they didn't dare to launch a frontal assault... Black Glasses knew this all too well!

Black Glasses: It was a wonderful misunderstanding at our first meeting. I just casually took a horse, didn't even sell it for money, and people have been talking about it for the rest of their lives. Oh, my poor life!

●︿●

Even though they were so far away from Wei Wuxian, they still walked on thin ice, cautiously gripping their weapons, like frightened birds, acting furtively and stealthily.

It's not like they used to stand tall and arrogant like the King of Qin. It's completely different from the imperial demeanor they often tout, making people laugh!

They dared not make any big movements, fearing that if Wei Wuxian turned around, their lives would be like Lu Jianxun's flickering candle in the wind, dying piece by piece, their bones still white and warm, and then reduced to ashes in a single fire!

(((?д?;)))

Others might not know the inside story, but did they know that on the day of the ambush at the train station, the people from Kou Island, harboring the intention of reaping the benefits, had been watching from a distance? Fortunately, they weren't discovered, and finally, two trembling signals were transmitted back...

The Jade-Faced Yama is a ruthless killer; he can reduce everything to ashes with a mere wave of his hand!

The person who relayed the message had done too many bad things and felt like he was possessed by a ghost, just like Lu Jianxun. Within a couple of days, he went insane and scared himself to death...

Sigh~,,?^?,,

Rumors are truly harmful! Wei Wuxian, you weren't that vicious at all! You were clearly just a good boy acting in self-defense!

o(=?w＜=)p⌒☆

Looking at their cowardly appearance, Wei Wuxian could only think that on a similar map, evil magic was once rampant in Japan, and the pirate islands are still doing the same thing!

It can only be said that this tiny country, no matter the era, is utterly incompetent. Perhaps it's just bad luck, but it seems destined to be subservient to others, harboring a constant ambition to invade the vast and resource-rich Central Plains.

"Tsk~ I gave you guys a chance, but you were useless! ↘ Fine, I'll just go all the way and do a good deed today! ↗"

Wei Wuxian's eyes darted around, and he slowed his pace. The closer he got to the mine, the weaker he seemed to become. The short rats gradually caught up, slowly forming an encirclement, closing in from a distance.

Wei Wuxian scoffed, "Even a turtle with its legs cut off could crawl faster than you guys!"

(ノдヽ)

The translucent mask reflected the sunlight, its vibrant colors casting shadows that couldn't conceal Wei Wuxian's increasingly pale face, as if he were enveloped by an invisible, oppressive weight.

His steps felt like walking on cotton, unsteady and weak, as if he would fall like a leaf in the autumn wind with just a gentle push.

It's a pity that even in his sickly state, the short rats were still wary of Wei Wuxian, and their penchant for taking advantage of others in distress remained hesitant.

Wei Wuxian really didn't want to dawdle any longer. As if using his last bit of strength, he flashed away, leaving them with an invincible, lonely, and aloof silhouette at the entrance of the mine.

The leader of this operation, agent Ryoko Nakata, lived up to her name, acting like a grandson to Wei Wuxian the whole way, and finally watching him "weakly" enter the mine from a hundred meters away...

? つ/????/'?'? ? ?? ??? _? ?つ/????/'?'? ? ?? ?? ??

He said, blustering but weak, "Once this Wei Wuxian comes out, it'll be his death day!"

"You, remain where you are. Upon target's appearance, immediately surround and kill!"

Look how familiar the lines are, and how similar the fates they bring.

Let's give a thunderous round of applause! Congratulations! The world is about to lose a group of scum from the island and gain a group of heroic martyrs who have successfully avenged their country!
