Chapter 354 Murderous Intent
Boom! As soon as Lumian saw Monit, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
This is both anger and fear, almost becoming a stress response.
Why is it him again?
Why did he appear underground and appear in front of me at a critical moment?
What exactly does he want to do?
Why are they like the bed bugs in the Golden Rooster Hotel, the cockroaches in the garbage heap, and the rats in the underground Trier, they can be found everywhere and cannot be avoided?
"Are you?" At this time, "Hela" asked coldly.
Her calm demeanor as if a dead man quickly eased Lumian's emotions, and his mind quickly changed to analyze the purpose of the archipelago trickster Monit and the "different" cabaret behind him.
Monit pinched the monocle in the eye socket of his right eye and replied with a smile:
"Just like you, tomb adventurer."
Crypt Adventurer...... To put the tomb robbers so openly...... Ms. "Justice" said that the higher the sequence, the more dangerous it is to enter the catacombs...... Therefore, here, the angel of Monit's faith could not provide him with any help, and the divine saint in the "different" cabaret did not dare to come...... In other words, I joined forces with Ms. "Hela", and it is very possible to keep Monite here forever, so that he can no longer roam like cockroaches! Lumian looked at Monit and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The fear in his heart receded a lot, and the dangerous idea of taking this opportunity to kill the liar in front of him increased rapidly.
Lumian laughed, looked at Monit and said:
"Crypt adventurer? Do you know this place well?"
Monit said with a smile:
"Of course."
He raised his right hand and pointed to an ancient tomb at the edge of the candlelight:
"That's a member of the Quaternary Zoroaster family."
Immediately afterwards, Monit pointed to several nearby tombs:
"It was a member of the house of Jacob, it was a member of the house of Abraham, it was a member of the Scarlet Legion......
"It's a pity, there are no extraordinary characteristics left."
Seeing that the archipelago liar really answered his question, Lumian was a little surprised for a moment, and became more and more confused about the other party's purpose.
He tentatively pointed to the ancient tomb behind Monit, where he had climbed out:
"Whose tomb is that?"
Monit took a few steps forward, and after seeing Lumian's eyes suddenly become dangerous, he stopped and said with a smile:
"It belongs to a member of the Quaternary Amon family."
This liar knows many big families of the Fourth Age, and he also knows the situation of the fourth tomb very well, much more detailed than what is written on the street signs...... In Lumian was suspicious, "Hela" spoke again:
"Then do you know where the Samaritan Woman's Fountain is?"
Monite rubbed the outer edge of the monocle, curled the corners of his mouth and said:
"Why should I tell you?
"What kind of reward can you give?"
"Why should we believe that you hold the specific location of the Samaritan Woman's Fountain?" Lumian asked reflexively.
He suspected that Monit was going to start habitual fraud again.
Monit chuckled:
"I don't know for sure that the name 'Samaritan Spring' is not very well received, as if it came from an ancient book I had read before.
"However, after coming to this floor more times, I found some strange phenomena, some accidentally activated bones will automatically gather in this area, walk into a certain tomb, and never come out again."
Those undead creatures generated by the environment will be affected by the abnormality of this tomb and take the initiative to approach? Or, is that the "Samaritan Woman's Fountain"? To the west, an ancient tomb with the same conditions...... Lumi moved with peace of mind and became more vigilant.
The archipelago liar Monit took the initiative to reveal such important information without receiving any compensation?
This is completely out of line with his character!
Once things seem abnormal, there must be a problem!
Lumian suspected that the other party was either using this information to trick himself and "Hela" into going to the ancient tomb where the undead gathered, taking the initiative to approach the source of the anomaly and killing himself, or using the two of them to help him find a way.
Although the former does not benefit Monit, some people will be very happy just to see others suffer losses.
"That's all I know." Monit pinched the monocle in the socket of his right eye again, and said with a smile, "I'm going to look through other tombs, if you can find the so-called 'Samaritan Woman's Fountain', remember to leave me a note in the tomb of a member of the Amon family, and tell me what is so strange about it."
He said as he walked towards Lumian.
In Lumian's highly tense state of attacking at any time, the island trickster passed him, took a lit white candle, and walked towards the tomb in the distance.
Soon, his figure disappeared at the fork in the road, and darkness re-enveloped there.
Really gone? Lumian was wary of the unexpected while watching Thermiporos' reaction.
The fateful angel remained silent, not alerted by Monit's reappearance.
"Hela" took a few steps back, came to an ancient tomb next to it, and opened the crumbling stone door.
Facing the pale bones scattered at the entrance of the tomb, "Hela" raised his right palm upwards.
Those white bones seemed to be pulled by invisible threads, quickly gathered together, and turned into rickety humanoid skeletons in a creaking sound.
Hela gave no command to the undead she had evoked, watching coldly as it slowly left the tomb and walked towards the depths of darkness, as if something was calling it there.
Is Ms. "Hela" a "corpse collector" channel, or is there a corresponding magical item? Lumian probably understood Hela's idea, and she planned to use the undead's ability to automatically approach the ancient tomb in question and let it lead the way.
And in this area, the most likely anomaly is the "Samaritan Woman's Spring"!
The two held burning white candles and followed the humanoid skeleton through the westernmost tombs.
Suddenly, another figure emerged from the darkness around the corner with candlelight.
He had a crystal monocle in his right eye socket, and he had an inexplicable smile on his face.
It's the archipelago liar Monit again!
While Lumian was startled again, Monit asked with a smile:
"Is that 'Samaritan Woman's Fountain' interesting? Can I go with you?"
Why didn't you ask just now?" Lumi felt a strong killing intent at heart.
He said calmly:
"We haven't found it yet, how do we know if it's interesting?
"Why don't you hide in the dark and wait for us to finish our exploration and confirm whether there are any dangers and traps before trying to enter? That would be much less risky, and even if we succeeded, we wouldn't be able to take all of the Samaritan Woman's Spring."
Monit pressed the back of his right index finger against the monocle and nodded approvingly:
"You make a point."
The liar smiled and retreated into the darkness around the corner.
The candle flame quickly faded away until it disappeared.
Was he persuaded to leave so easily? Lumian's thoughts collided with each other, and he still couldn't think of what the archipelago liar Monit wanted to do and what his purpose was.
He glanced sideways at "Hela" and found that the other party was drinking strong wine again, but his face did not even show a trace of rosy, but revealed a bit of cyan.
This lady is more like a corpse.
"Do you know what's wrong with these people who wear monocles?" Lumian probed the question.
"Hela" put the military wine jug back into the hidden bag, and while continuing to follow the humanoid skeleton, he replied in a cold and illusory voice:
"It is related to the Amon family of the Quaternary Age."
The Amon family of the Quaternary period...... The ancient tomb that Monit had just climbed out of belonged to a member of the Amon family...... This family controls the "thief" path, just like Franka's witch family controls the "assassin" path? Seeing that "Hela" was unwilling to say more, Lumian had to follow silently.
Monit's appearance made him lose the idea of naging to calm his irritability.
As they walked, the candlelight in Lumian and "Hela" hands shook obviously, dyed a little shaded green.
The "resurrected" skeleton then turned into a huge decayed and mottled tomb with a half-open stone door.
Lumian perked up and felt that the "Samaritan Woman's Fountain" was ahead.
At this time, another figure poked its head out from the side of the tomb.
Under the yellowish candlelight, the crystal monocle shimmered with strange colors.
It's still the archipelago liar Monit!
He asked with a smile:
"Do you have any words to leave for your relatives and friends? I can help you convey it."
Lumian, who was frightened again, almost couldn't hold back the killing intent in his heart.
There's no better place to deal with Monite!
"No." "Hela" responded coldly and did not choose to do it.
Lumian exhaled slowly and said:
"Neither do I."
"What a pity." Monit turned back into the dark tunnel on the side of the tomb with a disappointed expression.
The yellowish candle let out a little and shook gently, indicating that he was not far away and was waiting nearby.
Lumian couldn't help but look at "Hela" and gestured with his right hand to cut his throat.
Is he asking if he wants to get rid of the archipelago liars in advance?
"Hela" was silent for a few seconds, shook her head gently and said:
"We got the Samaritan Woman's Spring and left here immediately."
She meant to focus on the purpose and not look for trouble.
Well, as soon as I filled the spring water, I teleported away with Ms. "Hela"...... Lumian expressed his agreement and replaced it with a new candle with "Hela".
After a while, the skeleton still didn't come out, and the two of them carefully passed through the half-open stone door and entered the huge tomb.
At this moment, a hoarse old voice came from the depths of the tomb:
"Stop!"
At the edge of the yellow candlelight, a figure staggered out.
