Ccides obviously had a hidden meaning in his words, but Ma Wen would not distrust Black Hand just because of his provocation.
There was a reason why his attitude towards the demons had always been different from other evil forces.
Although the demons were hateful and evil, they had principles.
They were hypocritical, they were vicious, but they followed the rules.
No matter how dirty they were in the dark, at least on the surface, everything was in order.
The demons rarely invaded. For them, it was not a dignified thing – unless the opponent was the Abyss Demon.
They preferred to use contracts and agreements to play with people's hearts, and eventually lure people to the Fallen Land.
Ma Wen knew that when dealing with the demons, as long as he calculated his principles and bottom line, and did not let his emotions be affected by the other party, everything would be under control.
Of course, he knew that there was no principle of free service in the world of demons. Even if the other party was his grandfather, Ma Wen would not let down his guard against Ccides.
This was the awareness that had to be had when dealing with the demons.
…
At that moment, he smiled at Ccides, "Thank you for the reminder."
Then he looked at the Cat Burglar, who was looking at him with some fear in his eyes, "Are you going?"
The entrance to the tomb was in front of them, and it looked like an ordinary staircase entrance.
But in fact, Ma Wen knew that the demons could not enter this space.
The pure-blooded demons were repelled by the tomb of the Bloody Emperor. This was designed by the tyrant when he built the tomb.
Although he did not know how he did it, Black Hand and Ccides could not enter.
That was why Ccides asked the Black Knight Cangor to help him collect the debt. As for the content of the debt collection, Ma Wen was not interested.
The only ones who could enter the tomb were Ma Wen and the Cat Burglar.
He was asking for the other party's opinion.
The Cat Burglar was stunned for a moment, and then showed a curious look, "Although I'm afraid of death, since I'm already here, let's go in and have a look."
"I also want to know what's different about the tomb of the famous tyrant in the history of the Underdark."
Ma Wen nodded.
Previously, he had threatened the Tomb Robber Flying Bandit because he had no other choice. On one hand, he could not allow the Dark Knight to get more help. On the other hand, he needed a qualified pathfinder to help him find the entrance to the tomb. Who would have known that Black Hand would appear halfway?
Now that he had found the entrance to the tomb, it didn't matter if the Tomb Robber Flying Thief went or not.
With Ma Wen's strength, he was naturally not afraid of the Tomb Robber Flying Thieves having other thoughts.
If he really dared to take out the Blade of Sodom, he probably wouldn't give in so easily in front of the Devil City.
The two of them immediately entered the tomb.
Ccides just looked at their backs and did not do anything.
Outside the entrance of the tomb, it was still the Demon City. He could not do anything to Ma Wen, who had the bloodline of the Demon. However, inside the tomb, it was another space and time.
…
The stairs were dark and steep. Even though the two elders were extremely agile, they still felt that their feet were slippery.
Ma Wen did not know where Cangor was, but it was always good to be fast.
As always, Xiao Fei carried out his mission dutifully.
He walked in front, showing off his excellent detection ability.
There were many well-hidden mechanisms that he was able to determine from a long distance away.
This was professional.
Ma Wen, who was also a legendary Rogue, was far behind. Although he could also avoid those traps, at least he could not do it as easily.
Thinking of this, Ma Wen's gaze towards Xiao Fei became a little deeper.
It seemed like it was not bad to have one more Tomb Robber in the territory?
…
"The footprints and traces were left four minutes ago. They shouldn't have gone far."
"It's still the same three people."
At the bottom of the stairs was a cramped stone room.
There were three doors in the stone room, all of which could be easily pushed open. Behind each door was an unfathomable tunnel.
Xiao Fei half-knelt on the ground and said seriously, "They did not hesitate to go this way."
He pointed to the door on the far right.
"That's fake," Ma Wen said faintly.
Xiao Fei was stunned for a moment, but Ma Wen did not wait for him to speak and went straight to the door on the far left.
Most of the conversations between Ma Wen and Black Hand were not hidden from the Tomb Robber Snitch, but there were only two things that Black Hand secretly told Ma Wen.
One of them was about this stone room.
The three roads here led to different places. There was only one way to reach the tomb of the tyrant.
Compared to the "clues" that the Black Knight deliberately left for him, Ma Wen believed the road that Black Hand said more.
Along the way, the Black Knight did not leave any traces, but why did he leave footprints at this crossroad?
Only a moron whose entire soul had been cheated by the devil could think of such an obvious deception.
As for whether Black Hand's information was wrong or not, if Dyros wanted to harm him, he would have died many times over.
So the two moved quickly in the tunnel in silence.
To Ma Wen's surprise, the tomb of the Bloody Emperor was not as luxurious as he imagined.
This place looked like an ordinary underground palace.
Whether it was the architecture or the structure, it was so simple that it made one's hair stand on end.
As the two of them ventured deeper, even the number of mechanisms became fewer.
"That Martial Monarch is that confident?"
"There were not even a few monsters guarding the tomb?"
Marvin was secretly puzzled. He had been to a few emperor tombs in his previous life, and they were all very dangerous places. Not only were there monsters and guardians, but the roads were also very complicated.
But the tomb of the Bloody Emperor was obviously not in this category.
Very soon, they reached the bottom of the tunnel.
Vaguely, they could hear the sounds of intense fighting.
The Tomb Robber Snitch's expression changed, revealing a look of fear.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've seen a Legend like you."
Ma Wen smiled, "You don't like to fight, but you can become a Legend. You're a weirdo."
The Tomb Robber Snitch scratched his head awkwardly and said honestly, "Actually, I just don't dare to stay beside those two devils."
"Of course I'm interested in this tomb, but the Black Knight Cangor is my nightmare. I really don't want to go near him."
Ma Wen asked curiously, "Then why do you dare to stay by my side?"
The Tomb Robber Snitch said honestly, "I heard them just now. They all called you Sir Ma Wen."
"Although your disguise is very good, and you look like a Drow Warrior, and I didn't recognize you at first, those two devils would never mistake you for someone else."
"The current Fernand, there is no second Ma Wen, right?"
"If you really are the one in the White River Valley, then there is no doubt that you can be trusted."
Ma Wen did not expect that the Tomb Robber Snitch would actually follow him for this reason.
His heart skipped a beat. Things like Legend Points were indeed useful.
Currently, the White River Valley was flourishing and needed all kinds of talents.
Although the profession of Tomb Robber Snitch was a little unpopular, Ma Wen felt that every kind of talent was useful.
But now was not the time to use his fame to recruit subordinates.
The Black Knight Cangor was his biggest problem at the moment.
"You can stay here or find a place to hide."
"I'll go take a look first."
With that, he quickly entered Stealth and moved forward.
…
At the end of the tunnel was a secret room that was not very spacious.
Shadows intertwined in the secret room, causing Ma Wen to frown.
As expected, the Black Knight Cangor was one step ahead of him. But in this place, he encountered strong resistance.
It was a jade-green nine-headed snake!
The hydra's body had fused with a huge stone door, and nine heads grew out of the surrounding stone walls.
The stone door was tightly shut. It seemed that only by killing this monster could he reach the other side of the door.
"Blackhand said that behind this stone door is where the Bloody Emperor's corpse is."
"It is said that the tyrant did not bury him in a coffin, but left his corpse here with the Bloody Throne."
While in Stealth, Ma Wen quietly analyzed the situation in front of him.
Cangor held a spear in his hand, and the power of darkness exploded in his hand.
The Temple Raider was only holding the fort — the secret room was too narrow for him to fight.
What surprised Ma Wen was that the Legendary-mage did not make a move. He only stood in a safe corner and occasionally cast a few debuff spells on the hydra.
This did not make sense at all … Although the hydra was a Legendary-level monster, its resistance to spells was not that high.
It would be difficult to slash a monster with thick skin and flesh. Only a few spells from a Legendary-mage would be effective.
Ma Wen did not move randomly. Instead, he activated [Earth Sense].
In the next second, he instantly understood the reason.
"It has no soul?"
Ma Wen smiled as he looked at the back of the Legendary-mage and the Black Knight. After confirming that it was not a trap, he finally made his move.
But his target was not the Black Knight, but the stone door!
The hydra's nine heads were all entangled with Cangor. Naturally, it could not react in time to Ma Wen's ingenious move.
In the next second, Ma Wen appeared before the stone door.
As the Black Knight roared angrily, Ma Wen walked toward the seemingly sealed stone door!
His body slammed into the stone door.
However, a shocking scene occurred. It was as if the stone door did not exist, and Marvin walked right through it!
Everything happened so suddenly that even the hydra guarding the stone door could not react in time.
Not to mention the Black Knight, who was entangled with the hydra and had no time to spare!
"How is this possible?!"
"This door is a trick?!"
The Black Knight roared and waved his spear, charging toward the door viciously.
…
On the other side of the stone door, Ma Wen was still on high alert.
In the end, the strategies from his previous life were not completely useless.
At least that guy had revealed the relationship between the stone door and the hydra monster.
The stone door was just a trick. He could find a pet to attract the hydra's attention, and as long as he was agile enough, he could barge in at any time.
But the real test was behind the stone room.
Not far away, Ma Wen looked at the Bloody Throne standing on a pile of bones with a solemn expression.
