Chapter 160 161. Sculpture Guardian

"As expected of you."

After getting rid of the ghoul without any risk, Bai Ye continued to climb up.

He quickly climbed to the lower part of the sarcophagus platform, and Rick Jones reached out to give him a hand, and gave him a thumbs up when he got up.

"That short spear of yours seems to be a treasure?"

The legendary explorer suddenly became interested in [The Chief's Spear], he hesitated and asked, "Can I have a look?"

"?"

Bai Ye was a little surprised. In normal games, NPCs would not be curious about the player's equipment and props, would they?

'Is there any side mission? '

Although he felt strange, he still handed the [Chieftain's Spear] to Rick.

"Oh~~ It really is a very rare treasure. If I'm not mistaken, the symbols carved on it should come from Wakanda, the legendary country in Africa..."

Speaking of this, Rick Jones suddenly stared, looked solemn, folded his arms on his chest, and said respectfully: "Wakanda forever!"

"..."

What the hell?Have you ever been to Wakanda?

It is said that the great route can no longer hold your exploration footprints?
"emmm...does it need luck to display its true strength?"

Rick Jones seemed to be in deep thought, touched the short spear and gave Bai Ye back the weapon after admiring twice.

"It's over?"

Bai Ye didn't understand Rick's behavior.

He looked at the attributes of the short spear, and there was no change in it. There was no such thing as 'enchanting' or 'strengthening'.

'Is it simply admiration for this weapon?It made me look forward to it in vain. '

At this time, Joey interrupted: "What are you doing over there? We must hurry up, the battle between those two monsters seems to be over soon!"

Hearing this, Bai Ye quickly looked towards the sea.

The water column rose on the sea surface, and the raging waves surged.

Standing at this distance, Mordiggian could not be seen at all, only Dagon's wildly dancing octopus tentacles could be seen, and the number of tentacles had increased to eight. An ancient and prehistoric howl kept coming, and very obvious anger could be heard in the voice.

However, its opponent is even more fierce. The power of Mordiggian can be seen from the fact that the sea is covered by a large area of ​​frost from time to time. The cold mist erodes the opponent's body like a terrible virus, constantly killing the opponent. Dagon's tentacles froze, then tore.

Under such an offensive, Dagon fought and retreated, far away from the coastline, and the deep diver troops below also began to disperse after losing their commander.

It won't be long before the battle ends with the ghouls winning.

"Come on, let's quickly open the sarcophagus."

Rick Jones geared up and strode towards the square sarcophagus in the center of the platform.

The square sarcophagus in front of it is very similar to the one in the tomb of the skinned gnome. It is also carved with complicated reliefs. The content of the reliefs has become that a half-human, half-dog ghoul is holding a staff holding a 'weird sculpture' in his hand. The old man worshiped devoutly.

"Before I thought the sculpture was a symbol of power for a skinned gnome."

Rick touched the sarcophagus relief with his hand, and continued: "I didn't expect that it could also be used to dominate this half-human, half-beast monster group."

"I don't think these sculptures are just symbols of power."

Bai Ye shook his head and put forward a different opinion.

He pointed to one of the relief patterns with his finger-on it, a dozen or so ghouls guarded the vicinity of the weird sculpture, confronting some creatures of various shapes.

"Judging from the behavior of these monsters on the relief, their identities are more like guardians. Their behavior is to protect the sculpture and prevent it from being taken away by outsiders."

"Huh? Take a look."

Joy suddenly shouted from the side. She was holding a magnifying glass in her hand, and she was observing one of the weird creatures on the relief pattern of the 'Guardian Sculpture of Ghouls'.

"Do you think... this monster looks very similar to the frogman below?!"

Rick Jones leaned forward, took Joey's magnifying glass, and took a closer look.

"Oh! Really."

"I agree with what Bai Ye said."

Joey looked back at the devastated square below, "The meaning of the relief pattern is obvious. These fish and frogmen probably have always coveted the sculpture and have always wanted to seize the sculpture. This is certainly not the first time a war like this has happened."

"Aha, your statement is very likely to be true, which also makes me more interested in the origin and background of the sculpture!"

Rick clenched his fists with an excited expression on his face.

"The answer may be revealed after we collect all the weird sculptures."

Bai Ye approached the sarcophagus and noticed that there was also a square gemstone inlaid with blue light on the surface of the sarcophagus.

He remembered that this kind of gem has hidden properties that make the gravity of objects disappear, but when you hold it in your hand, the system will only give a very simple introduction.

"Gem? We also did careful research on the last gem, but unfortunately...we didn't get much results."

Rick explained to Bai Ye that Bai Ye gave him the gemstone last time, and he thought it necessary to let Bai Ye know the situation of the gemstone.

"We have done experiments on other objects, and the gem's gravity-disappearing function does not work, that is to say, it will only work on the sarcophagus lid."

While speaking, Rick reached out to push the lid of the sarcophagus in front of him.

whispering sound--

The sarcophagus made a deflated sound, and the heavy lid lifted up a little, and was easily pushed aside by Rick.

Inside the sarcophagus, there is a strange-looking sculpture—it looks like a skull, and the image is a monster covered with scales, with multiple ugly tentacled heads on its body, and a pair of heads on its back. Simple bat-shaped wings, the sculpture as a whole has a mysterious and terrifying meaning.

Rick reached in, carefully picked up the weird sculpture, and said a little excitedly: "Finally got it, all our efforts and sacrifices were not in vain!"

But Bai Ye interrupted abruptly from the side: "Let's wait until we escape successfully, the monsters below are all starting to get mad."

This is a normal plot flow. Adventurers will be hunted down by big waves of monsters after obtaining treasures. They must go through a dangerous and thrilling escape before they can usher in the end of the story, such as helicopter rescue, or the setting sun and yellow sand background. galloping wildly, or embracing each other tightly and flicking each other's lips with their tongues.

Therefore, the three of Bai Ye are no exception at this moment.

From the moment Rick Jones picked up the weird sculpture, all the ghouls in the square who hadn't died in the battle with the old enemy suddenly locked their eyes on the stone platform on the cliff.

They all had red eyes, roared angrily, put down what they were doing, and began to crawl towards the three members of the expedition team.

And far away on the sea beyond the mountain, Mordiggian, the ghoul king, has already sensed it.

It immediately gave up its pursuit of Dagon, the runes on its arms shone with a faint blue light, and the cold mist condensed directly on the sea surface to form an ice road leading to the mountain square for it to run back.

"Quick, go up to the top of the mountain."

Rick quickly put the sculpture into his backpack, took out his climbing pick, and called Bai Ye and Joey to continue climbing the cliff.
