Chapter 662: The Dark Emperor’s Corpse?
The discussion of Bai Qi and others reached the ears of the cowhide snake, which became more and more irritated. It roared angrily and actually made a dragon roar, which surprised everyone and they all looked over.
The original four-legged snake suddenly emitted bronze light, and two small tumors grew on its bald back. They grew rapidly and turned into a pair of wings.
"Tsk tsk... Is it because it can't stand the stimulation and its bloodline is activated?"
Bai Qi couldn't help but smack his lips when he saw this, and the cowhide snake also noticed its own changes. It became excited and flapped its wings to fly out of the cave.
But before he could fly far, he felt his wings were running out of steam. Looking back, he found that his wings had stopped growing and were only half the size of his limbs, and were completely unable to bear his weight.
Afterwards, the Bullsnake, who was about to prove himself, fell down again. If Delta had not acted in time and teleported it back, it would have been embarrassed again.
"Hey, Buffy, you spend all day and night in the secret realm of time, why haven't you traced your bloodline yet?"
Bai Qi grabbed the cowhide snake, feeling somewhat helpless.
Although he likes to tease this guy on weekdays, Bai Qi also hopes that the cowhide snake can restore his bronze dragon bloodline.
But after such a long time, the cowhide snake still didn't move, and Bai Qi was getting a little impatient.
"I don't know either. I'm trying very hard to absorb the power of time, but I just can't store it."
The bull snake looked a little depressed, with its head hanging listlessly.
"Storing the power of time? Delta, you do that too?"
Bloopers.
(No, Delta can communicate with the river of time and mobilize the power of time at any time.)
Delta shook his head and said.
"Perhaps the bronze dragon and the candle dragon control time in different ways."
Bai Qi patted the snake's head and said, "Forget it, just keep it as a pet. It doesn't matter if you keep it as a pet."
"Damn it, I'm not a pet! I'm the great guardian of time, the bronze dragon!"
The bull snake was obviously unconvinced and loudly proved its existence. Its hysterical voice kept echoing in the cave.
Then, there was a sudden loud noise in the cave , followed by the sound of orderly footsteps, coming towards them from far away.
Crunch.
(Boss, there are a lot of live servants coming towards us.)
Alpha stopped in front of Bai Qi and said.
"Living servant?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi turned his head and looked at the cowhide snake. The cowhide snake also knew that it had done something stupid again and shrank back silently.
"Alpha, can you control those live mercenaries directly?"
Bai Qi asked.
Crunch.
(Some can, but some are blocked by some force and cannot for the time being.)
Alpha shook his head, then grasped the Sword of Annihilation and rushed directly into the cave.
Immediately afterwards, a series of sounds of metal clashing were heard, as if a great battle had taken place, but soon the sounds disappeared. A moment later, Alpha emerged from the shadows and returned to Bai Qi.
Crunch.
(Boss, it’s done.)
Alpha's tone was calm, as if he had just gone out for a walk. His nonchalant look made Beta even more envious and jealous.
Ahhhhhhh…
(Just wait for me, you stinky bone. Sooner or later, I will be able to do this...)
"Is this settled?"
Bai Qi was also a little surprised, but still followed Alpha forward.
The cave was very deep and pitch black. Even though Bai Qi had the feedback from the Shadow Law and could see at night, it still felt very strange and he let the Cordyceps provide lighting.
It would have been fine if the Cordyceps didn't provide any lighting, but when the green sunlight from the Sun shone, although it illuminated the entire cave, the atmosphere became even more eerie.
"It seems that the fusion of these skills is not all good things."
Bai Qi sighed and switched to Shuke's panoramic lights, which made him feel much better.
Soon, the group passed through a long corridor and soon arrived at a huge cave.
The cave is not big and the entire scene can be seen at a glance. Apart from the living mercenaries killed by Alpha, there is only the dark gold throne in the center.
This dark gold throne was placed on a regular quadrilateral prism. A figure in dark gold armor was leaning on it, and in front of him, a rotten skeleton was kneeling on the ground.
"Could that figure be the Dark Emperor?"
Bai Qi glanced at the two figures and said.
This place is clearly related to the Dark Emperor, and with the dark gold throne, it seems even more like one.
"That kneeling human is the same one I saw two thousand years ago."
At this moment, the Ice-footed Sea Lice King suddenly spoke.
"How do you know?"
Bai Qi was a little confused, but soon noticed that the skeleton seemed to be wearing a mask on its face, but it was facing away from them so they couldn't see it clearly.
However, in this way, Bai Qi has roughly figured out the situation here.
"Four thousand years ago, the Dark Emperor might have died here. Then two thousand years ago, someone who believed in the Dark Emperor or was the bloodline of the Dark Emperor found this place, but for some reason, they never left."
"After that, some people came here to look for it, but they never left. The news spread to the outside world and spread that there was a treasure here."
After sorting out his thoughts, Bai Qi's interest in this place increased instead of decreased.
Although the Dark Emperor is definitely notorious in human history, his strength is unquestionable. However, the place where he stayed after his death was just a broken cave, which is really shabby.
But there is a greater possibility that there is something hidden here that he doesn't know about.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi picked up a stone from the ground, weighed it, and suddenly threw it towards the throne in the center.
With Bai Qi's current strength, the stone flew at an extremely fast speed and soon arrived in front of the throne, but just when it was about to hit the armor of the throne, the stone disappeared for no reason.
Bloopers.
(Boss, the space in this cave seems to be folded, and the technique is very clever, it is hard to see.)
"Sure enough, it is the mausoleum of an emperor after all. It can't be ordinary no matter how you think about it."
Bai Qi showed a look of "as expected" on his face, and said, "Delta, can you crack it?"
Bloopers.
(I'll give it a try.)
Delta nodded slightly, revealing his true form as a dragon, then he closed his eyes and began to sense the void.
Gradually, a ripple emanated from Delta and gradually spread to the surroundings. The further outward, the larger the ripple became, and gradually it turned into a wave.
At the same time, the cave that originally looked narrow gradually became wider, and the distance between Bai Qi and the throne gradually increased.
Bai Qi looked around. Although the space of the cave had become larger, it still seemed to be folded. Every time he traveled a certain distance, the space would undergo abrupt changes.
Bloopers.
(Master, the space here is too large, Delta cannot spread them out completely.)
Delta felt a little ashamed. Space was his advantageous attribute, but he failed to handle it smoothly. It was really not right.
"Don't worry about it. The Dark Emperor is at least at the legendary level. It's normal that he can't be spread out."
Bai Qi smiled and consoled him, saying, "Besides, we have almost figured out the general situation."
Although the space here is still in a folded state, it is much better than the previous flawless state. At least they can judge in advance what they might encounter.
"But for safety's sake, let's send someone to explore the way first."
"Leave the exploration to us."
After hearing Bai Qi's words, Shuke volunteered to summon a mechanical apostle to explore the way, but was stopped by Bai Qi.
"Looking at the appearance of these living mercenaries, some traps may only be effective on flesh and blood creatures, not mechanical apostles."
"As for the flesh and blood creatures, leave them to me."
Upon hearing this, Chongcao immediately came over and planned to send out insect guards to explore.
"No, your insect guards haven't gathered yet, don't worry, and we have the best guide."
Bai Qi waved his hand, turned his head to look at the Ice-footed Sea Lice King, and suddenly an evil smile appeared on his face.
…
A moment later.
The Ice-footed Sea Lice King returned to Bai Qi with the help of a set of flying + reconnaissance equipment. There were still many wounds on his body from the attack, but they were very light. By the time he landed, he had basically recovered.
"The fourth round of exploration is over. The trap discovery data overlaps 97% with the third round. Do we need another round?"
Shuke quickly extracted the data from the device, compared it with the previous rounds, and then reported to Bai Qi.
"No need. The trap . It would be the same if we tried again."
Bai Qi shook his head, and Shuke quickly put together a roadmap.
"Why don't we try again? Although I can protect you, it's better to try again for safety reasons."
A cautious green dragon reminded him, "How about letting me give it a try?"
"No need, just protect me later."
Bai Qi waved his hand and said, "Besides, the Ice-foot Sea Lice King, whose powerful vitality has not been drawn out, is probably gone."
"You cunning human! Those guys in the South China Sea will definitely regret cooperating with you!"
The Ice-footed Sea Lice King, who was used as a live bait, was very unhappy and complained secretly, but suddenly he found a pair of dog eyes staring at him.
Ahhhhh?
(I seem to hear you slandering humans?)
"Ahahahaha… How is that possible? I didn't say anything."
Being noticed by Beta, the Ice-foot Sea Lice King shook his head and said, "I have cooperated so well, how could I possibly slander humans?"
Ahhhhhhh…
(Isn’t it? That’s a pity…)
Beta was a little disappointed when he heard that. Even the legendary sea beast was so cowardly. It seemed that Choong Guts was really powerful. He scared this guy so much.
The road to surpassing stinky bones is long and arduous.
"Beta, what are you mumbling about?"
Seeing Beta mumbling something to himself, Bai Qi couldn't help but shout, and then instructed: "Hurry up and push the Ice-footed Sea Lice King to the front to clear the way. We are about to set off."
Ahhhh!
(I understand!)
Beta nodded after hearing this, then pushed the device containing the Ice-footed Sea Lice King heavily and moved forward along the route analyzed by Shuke.
Although we have explored it several times, we still have to be careful. After all, the Ice-foot Sea Lice King has strong vitality and ordinary injuries will not have much effect on it.
