Chapter 88 Big Head Corpse
Chapter 88 Big Head Corpse
After the members of the Unloading Ridge faction dug the passage, they did not rush around, but stood aside and waited for Cheng Feng's orders.
Cheng Feng looked down and then said:
"Everyone, get ready, the road ahead is about to get tough."
As he spoke, Cheng Feng activated his Ghost Eye and released ten large packages.
The two women looked at Cheng Feng curiously, wondering why he suddenly took out the package.
However, the members of the Unloading Ridge faction quickly cleared up the two women's doubts.
They found their respective packages and took out a set of chainmail from them.
"This is the unique heritage of the Unloading Ridge Warriors: the golden chainmail. The Unloading Ridge Warriors relied on this to roam freely in various tombs."
This set of gold chainmail is mostly black, with only some vital areas adorned with gold.
The chainmail armor protected the Unloading Warriors perfectly, leaving no openings on their bodies.
Most importantly, the craftsmanship of this armor is extremely exquisite.
Not only will it not affect a person's movements, but it also weighs only about 20 kilograms.
Back then, Chen Yulou always wore armor when he went down into tombs.
Soon, the members of the Unloading Ridge faction had finished putting on their golden chainmail.
They were now completely clad in armor, carrying submachine guns on their backs.
His tall and imposing physique is enough to inspire awe at first glance.
"The four major tomb raiding sects are indeed worthy of their reputation; each sect's methods are enough to make other tomb raiders envious."
Amid Chen Wenjin's praise, the members of the Unloading Ridge Clan stood up even straighter.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Feng activated his Ghost Eye to collect the remaining backpack, then took out a Nepalese kukri and said:
"Let's go down!"
Through the opening, it can be seen that the difference in elevation between the tomb passage and the burial chamber is not significant.
It's only about two meters high, and even though the members of the Unloading Ridge Clan are wearing armor, they can easily jump down.
After the entire Xieling group went down, Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling followed closely behind, while Cheng Feng was the last to jump into the lower tomb chamber.
The system's voice arrived as expected the instant the object landed.
'Ding~ The system has detected that the host has officially entered the area of the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top. The cleanup mission has been initiated.'
Task 1: Remove the large-headed fetus
Reward: Fish Intestine Sword
Task Two: Eliminate the King of Ten Thousand Slaves
Reward: Meteorite Tiger Talisman
After the system finished issuing the cleanup task, Cheng Feng seemed to be deep in thought.
"The system seems to have some hidden settings."
Previously, including the underwater tomb, there were extremely troublesome tasks such as wiping out an entire race.
For example, the fireflies in the Nine-Story Demon Tower, the forbidden woman and the sea monkey in the underwater tomb.
However, ever since Cheng Feng shelved the underwater tomb quest, the system has not issued any more quests that require clearing multiple monsters.
"It seems it's best to put the underwater tomb mission on hold for now."
If I were given a task to eradicate centipedes, I probably could never complete it in my lifetime.
With a sigh in his heart, Cheng Feng finally withdrew his attention from the system and began to look around.
The tomb chamber was about 300 square meters in size and contained a large number of mummified corpses.
They sat on stone platforms of varying heights, all in the same posture, sitting cross-legged in place.
"The mummies here should all be high-ranking officials of the Eastern Xia Kingdom, and only they are qualified to be buried in the burial mausoleum."
As he spoke, Cheng Feng walked down from the high platform, and the space below became much wider.
The distance to the top was also more than four meters.
Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling followed Cheng Feng down the platform. The members of the Unloading Ridge Clan kept Cheng Feng's teachings in mind and were cautiously looking around.
Soon Cheng Feng saw the entrance to an underground cave that was more than two meters wide.
"This should be the passage leading to the main tomb. I'll go first after going down."
Wen Jin, you and Huo Ling will stay in the middle; the rest of the brothers will cover the rear.
The ten elite members of the Unloading Ridge Army answered the call in unison.
Cheng Feng then stepped into the underground cave with his Nepalese kukri in hand.
Behind the cave entrance is a sloping path. After going down the slope, you will find a secret passage leading to the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top.
Judging from the condition of the secret passage, this is most likely a naturally formed cave.
This is also the channel that inevitably appears in the feng shui pattern of the Three Dragons Convergence.
The group followed Cheng Feng in a long line towards the depths of the secret passage. Along the way, Cheng Feng remained solemn and dared not be careless in the slightest.
After turning a corner, Cheng Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.
Embedded in the wall in front of them was an immature humanoid embryo.
Its body is similar to that of an ordinary baby, but its head is three times the size of an adult's.
Its facial features were indistinct, and its entire body was bluish-black, making it look extremely terrifying.
Upon seeing this thing, Cheng Feng's face lit up with joy, because it was one of the targets the system had specifically designated to be cleaned up: the Big-Headed Corpse Fetus.
Wow, what a lucky break!
As he spoke, Cheng Feng quickly cut his finger with a Nepalese knife, staining the blade with blood.
While Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling were wondering what it meant to find love around the corner, Cheng Feng had already rushed towards the big-headed corpse fetus like a shooting star.
The large-headed corpse seemed to sense the threat posed by Cheng Feng's blood and dared not continue to play dead.
After a piercing scream, it sprang into action and fled into the depths of the secret passage.
With lightning speed, Cheng Feng threw the Nepalese dagger in his hand, which flew towards the fleeing, large-headed corpse fetus.
To Cheng Feng's surprise, the large-headed corpse suddenly stopped and caught the hilt of the Nepalese knife with its back.
Then it seemed to turn back and give Cheng Feng a venomous look before disappearing from Cheng Feng's sight.
Cheng Feng reacted quickly and opened his ghost eyes, but it was too late; the big-headed corpse fetus had already run far away.
Cheng Feng was slightly annoyed after being outmaneuvered by the big-headed corpse fetus.
However, I wasn't too discouraged; this thing has limited intelligence.
Judging from the resentment and malice I sensed earlier, they will definitely come back to die.
"I thought it was a statue, but I didn't expect it to be a living thing."
Chen Wenjin approached Cheng Feng and said with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
"It's not alive; this big head is a genuine ghost."
After Cheng Feng finished speaking, Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling were both somewhat shocked, as they had also been to some tombs before.
I've encountered quite a few zombie-like creatures, but this is the first time I've seen a ghost.
What if it comes back and causes us trouble?
Huo Ling was a little worried; ghosts, which are invisible to the naked eye, are even more terrifying than rice dumplings.
"Don't worry, if it dares to come, I'll destroy it."
Cheng Feng's ghost eyes can see ghost bodies, his bloodline is able to restrain ghosts, and his speed is no slower than that of the Big Head Corpse Fetus.
The suppression was all-encompassing; if it weren't for the others, Cheng Feng could have caught up and killed it just now.
"Let's keep going. It's still quite a distance to the main burial chamber from here."
These are two mountain peaks, and even if this cave is a straight line, it's definitely not close.
We walked along the cave for about half an hour, but the end still seemed far away.
However, compared to the previous cave, this place is much more spacious, enough for four or five people to walk side by side without feeling crowded.
At this moment, Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin walked on either side of Cheng Feng. Under Chen Wenjin's questioning, Cheng Feng began to talk about Dongxia, a little-known country.
