In the dim light, the beast opened its huge mouth.
Seeing this scene, many of the mercenaries felt a knot in their hearts. They suddenly had a bad feeling.
But there's no way back. They could only move forward. Some optimistic people thought there must be unimaginable treasures at the end of the road.
"Boss, which way should we go?" Shay glanced at it. Except for the beast, he couldn't see any difference.
Tang Yu pondered for a while, "Since I don't know which way to go, then … let's go through the bear's mouth passage. At least compared to the other three, this bear's head isn't too ugly."
The passage connected to the beast's mouth was like an underground tunnel. The surroundings were sealed, but it also followed the same style as the square. It was as spacious, and the walls also emitted a faint fluorescent light.
The group went straight to the bear's mouth passage.
The rest of the hunters were almost the same. Although the square was large, some people walked around and found there was only one exit. They each chose a different passage.
Tang Yu noticed the Silver Wolf and Warhammer mercenary regiments teamed up and walked into the tiger's mouth passage, followed by a lot of mercenary teams.
He glanced back again. Well, there were also a lot of Lindong mercenaries following behind.
This wasn't a surprise. These mercenaries had all seen their performance outside. Perhaps they didn't have the guts to come up and hug his thigh, but following him from afar to make themselves safer was probably what most of the mercenaries were thinking.
Including many foreign hunters in the passage. When they saw Tang Yu and the others taking the lead, they slowed down and followed them from a distance.
Tang Yu naturally knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't want to care about it.
Only the weak needed to be careful. For him, finding the rift crystal as soon as possible was the key.
'Besides, our team might not be the first to walk in the front. Maybe some people entered the secret realm earlier. Not to mention, I can't find the Metal Swallowing Beast. I don't know where it went along the passage.'
Thinking of this, Tang Yu had a headache. He could only hope the Metal Swallowing Beast wasn't stewed. After all, a living Metal Swallowing Beast was more valuable than a dead one.
Throwing a few round puppets to explore the way in front, the group walked in the passage.
Everyone was vigilant and silent. The atmosphere quieted down in an instant. Only light footsteps could be heard throughout the passage.
"There seems to be something carved there."
After walking for a while, Shay suddenly pointed at the stone wall in front of him.
Tang Yu walked forward and saw some crooked patterns carved on the stone wall on this side.
"Perhaps this is a type of language?"
He looked at it with rapt attention, and there was a kind of understanding in his heart.
He could actually understand the meaning of these drawings that looked like scribbled talismans!
"I'm the King of Thieves? It's a pity that you can't steal your own lifespan. "
"Do you want my treasure? If you want, I can give them all to you. Go find them! I placed all the treasures in the deepest part of the tomb. "
"Brave adventurers, keep moving forward!"
"…"
Tang Yu was stunned.
The amount of information contained in these few sentences was a little too much.
Zo? He naturally didn't know who it was, but from these words, he concluded two key points. Zuo Hou? He was very powerful when he was alive. The funerary objects after death were really awesome.
Tang Yu looked around. He didn't know how long this passage was. Thinking about the wide square before and the unknown environment behind it, Zo? The size of this tomb was a little exaggerated.
A tomb built with an entire secret realm as the main body?
Sure enough, money was the thing to do.
And his favorite thing was to be rich.
He wasn't the only one who could understand these words. The others could also understand them. Everyone showed a thoughtful or excited look.
Tang Yu didn't continue to move forward. He carefully looked at these words.
"Sure enough, these crooked patterns are the rune language. There's no mistake about it."
Rune language was the most essential language. It could transmit information on the spiritual level. From Kevin's reaction, Tang Yu could tell how precious rune language was. Even in his library, there were only a few books of rune language.
Unfortunately, his understanding of runes was limited. Even if he understood the meaning, these words were still crooked patterns in his eyes. It was no different from before. With his rune knowledge, he couldn't recognize any of the rune patterns.
This made Tang Yu a little unconvinced.
Could it be that this was a fake rune language?
"This one represents the flame rune, and this one, well, it represents the absorption rune …"
Elaine stood next to him, her small face showing a thoughtful expression.
Tang Yu looked at it, "That's not right. I also know the flame rune. The curved hook of the last stroke should be upward, and the vertical above should be a little higher."
"No." Elaine shook her head gently, "What you said is the most basic flame rune. Above that, there are a total of 12 kinds of first-layer derivative drawing methods, and 96 kinds of second-layer derivative drawing methods …"
"And this flame rune, to be exact, should be a fire attribute motivational rune. It has the function of boosting morale. It belongs to a kind of second-layer derivative drawing method. Look at this energy node, isn't it very similar to the flame rune? And this rune, if put in the whole sentence, translates to the meaning of courage. And these … these …"
"It's a pity that I still can't infer the meaning of a few runes." Elaine said, looking a little depressed.
Although the others around her couldn't understand it, they thought it was amazing.
Tang Yu was hit by a critical blow.
Listening to Elaine's words, he realized that what she said was right! Yes! Dao! Reason!
In an instant, he was enlightened. But why didn't he think of this at all just now?
Obviously, the two of them studied rune knowledge and read the same book. But unknowingly, the gap between them had become so big.
As a slacker student, and a slacker who thought he had a good grasp of knowledge, he was instantly hit by the spirit of a top student.
Especially Elaine's last sentence, inexplicably reminded him of the words that some top students often said in the past …
"It's a pity that I still got a small question wrong …"
Otherwise, it would be full marks.
Tang Yu calmed his wounded heart, but his eyes didn't move away.
These were rune language. Even if it didn't carry any power, the rune itself was very valuable. Now that he encountered it, he couldn't let it go.
"Let's dig out all the stone walls in this area."
"Dig???"
The hard work naturally fell on the members of the patrol team and Yan Dazhuang. The few of them took the high-level rune longsword that Kong handed over. With the sharpness of the high-level equipment, they were finally able to cut through the hard stone walls. After a while of fiddling with it, the large piece of stone that had been cut off was divided into several stone slabs and kept in their spatial backpacks.
"I'll show these rune language to Kevin. He should be able to study a lot of things. It seems like this is a good start."
But …
He caught a glimpse of the hollowed out stone wall. Doing this seemed a little … a little damaging to his image.
After all, he was still a big boss in the eyes of the Lindong mercenaries. He can't be reduced to digging stones, right?
He had to make up for it.
