Jieer's ears were red, and his face was pierced with embarrassment. He scratched his head and admitted, "Okay, I guess I'll drive it myself..."
The second half of the winding path was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers. It wasn't until the last corner that I saw a little light. It was a bug lamp that Kevin dropped here before.
The Bug Lantern hung from the tip of the thorn branch, motionless because there was no wind.
The quiet yellow light just sprinkled on the obelisk on the ground, reflecting the rusty, mottled and blurred writing on it.
In fact, only half of the obelisk is exposed to the ground. The soil that was originally buried only at the base has become thicker and thicker over the years, gradually covering the lower half.
Kevin's footsteps were unhurried and silent. He walked to the obelisk and squatted down. He stretched out his long and thin fingers to scrape the soil a few times, and quickly pushed aside the loose layer of mud. The other half of the obelisk was exposed.
Stuck under the damp soil all year round, the other half of the obelisk has been more corroded than the top, and the characters engraved on the shallower side have been rusted away, except for a few extremely deep ravines that remain, like map lines Winding out from the center.
Kevin stared at the winding ravines for a moment, reached out and took off the dagger at his waist, and drew blood on the fingertips of the five fingers on his left hand.
In order to prevent the wound from healing too quickly, he made deep cuts with each cut, and the blood beads almost smashed into the mud in clusters.
The pain in his fingers was much sharper than other places, but he just frowned, and he looked like he was always there. He put his entire left hand on the obelisk. The obelisk suddenly came alive, as if the bright red blood was sucked out, it flowed quickly along the gullies, and soon covered the entire surface like a spider's web.
The rusty bronze monument suddenly turned scarlet, as if it had just been refined from a forging furnace. Some debris fell off and stuck to the thorn bushes, and it burst into flames in the blink of an eye.
The fire surged extremely high in an instant, and the entire thorn bush was wrapped in golden-red flames, which spread rapidly from the center to the surroundings, and burned into a sea of flames.
Amidst the crackling sound of the sea of flames, the roars and screams of countless beasts and raptors loomed, appearing from far and near, as if they came from the end of hell.
Kevin stood in front of the sea of flames calmly, and the crazy flames were almost touching his face, but he didn't even blink his eyes.
He was looking behind the sea of fire.
It wasn't until there was a sound of gold and stone rubbing slowly in the darkness behind the scarlet that Kevin's eyes moved—
Because the door of the tomb is open.
The door had probably been dusty for too long, and when it was slowly opened, there was even a smell of decaying dust coming from the fire.
Kevin took a sip, with a lukewarm smile on the corner of his mouth...
When he opened the tomb door alone, there was chaos around the fire in front of the cave.
Oswald woke up amidst the bewildered voices of the night watchmen. The moment he opened his eyes, there was an inexplicable "thump" in his heart. Not knowing whether it was his intuition or what, he almost glanced at the position where Kevin was originally lying.
empty!
The moment these two words crossed his mind, his body had already reacted first. He got up almost immediately, and went straight to the winding path without saying a word. A group of Wujin iron cavalry hurriedly chased after him, with scattered footsteps.
He is tall and has long legs, and it is very difficult for others to chase him when he is running in big strides. Before reaching the corner, he saw a flickering red light.
It's on fire!
Oswald's face tightened, and he turned the corner with one step.
The scene at that moment will probably be unforgettable for him forever—
He saw the monstrous sea of flames burning into pieces, the howling undead bursting out of the ground, the heat waves surging, and the sky filled with blood.
Kevin glanced at him in the twisting scarlet tongue, then waved his hand nonchalantly, turned his head and walked into the depths of the sea of flames, disappearing completely...
Chapter 32
"You!" Oswald's mind was blanked by the oncoming heat wave.
Looking at the moment when Kevin waved at him in the midst of the fire, he was almost at a loss, but soon, an anger even more monstrous than the fire in front of him swept up instantly. When a person is extremely angry, his brain is almost fragmented, and he can't even speak a whole sentence.
When Kevin turned and disappeared, Oswald subconsciously reached forward to grab a handful.
"Your Majesty!" The Wujin cavalry team behind them chased after him. In a hurry, they didn't even see Kevin's face. They only saw a residual phantom and the emperor who was so angry that he almost rushed into the fire.
