Hao Ren took out the MDT and was about to smash it on the ground. He had never seen such a difficult PDA to deal with in his life. Not only did the MDT not work well, but it also had a nasty mouth when it was useful. He had never seen such a troublesome PDA in his life!
"What's wrong?" Vivian was puzzled by Hao Ren's action. "There's no use venting your anger on it."
"Open the stone wall," Hao Ren said angrily as he shoved the MDT back into his pocket. "The sealing system of the crypt is long gone. Whatever is suppressed in there will escape from somewhere else. We're just unlucky to be stuck in this dead end!"
Vivian glanced at Hao Ren. She did not care how he knew about it. She turned around to tackle the stone wall. However, she soon told Hao Ren the bad news. "As expected, I can't open it."
"Didn't you say that this thing is thin?"
"The stone wall itself is thin, but the Letta runes on it form the phrase 'castle of the king of the earth'. So, it has the same strength as the city wall. Also, the Letta runes will suppress my strength... Lily, don't try. It's not something that can be opened by brute force."
The werewolf maiden was scratching and digging under the rune stone wall, trying to dig a hole. "I'm trying to dig a tunnel underground!"
Vivian rolled her eyes. "Then, try your best. Based on the strength of the runes, you'll have to dig at least half a kilometer down."
Lily's tail and ears drooped listlessly. She looked at Hao Ren with a sad face. "Mr. Landlord, what should we do?"
"Why am I so unlucky?" What else could Hao Ren do? As an ordinary person with the lowest combat strength, it was quite incredible that he could still maintain a calm and composed demeanor. He could not think of a solution at all, and could only angrily punch the rune stone wall. "Why am I so unlucky!!"
A clear cracking sound came from the top of the stone wall.
Hao Ren was the closest to the stone wall. He immediately heard the cracking sound. He looked up in surprise and saw that the ancient Letta runes were glowing in a strange red light. Then, as if they were being squeezed out, the runes slowly left the stone wall.
"Vivian, did you do this?" Hao Ren looked at the vampire maiden in surprise. She was equally confused. "No... I think you just punched the wall and the runes fell off."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and suddenly became shocked. "The runes said that only the descendants of Yorkford's bloodline have the right to open the crypt. Am I the heir of an old British noble who has been missing for many years? This castle and the 200 acres of wasteland around it are mine? "
The surprise on Vivian's face was instantly replaced by embarrassment. "Mr. Landlord, you're more open-minded than Doggie … Let's not think too much. We need to get out of here! Doggie, go! "
Lily did not wait for Vivian to finish her sentence. She had already run up to the stone wall. The werewolf maiden punched the wall and a loud bang was heard. The seemingly indestructible stone slab had a big hole in it. When the power of the runes dissipated, the layer of stone seemed to be no stronger than ordinary rocks. It was much easier to deal with than the black enchanted rock behind them.
The stone wall... or rather, the stone door. After it was broken, a spacious underground hall appeared in front of the three of them.
The hall was much wider than the intersection of the tunnels under the chapel. It was square in shape. On the opposite side of the hall, they could see another tunnel that led to an unknown destination. The three of them did not have time to think about anything else. They covered their noses and ran into the hall through the flying debris and dust. The moment they ran into the hall, they heard a thunderous sound of rocks collapsing from the tunnel they came from. The entire tunnel had collapsed.
"Sh * t... My life is on the line." Hao Ren turned his head and saw that the place where he was standing was blocked by rubble. He felt his heart beating wildly and cold sweat dripped down his body. "If we were one step slower, we would have died in there."
"It must be the design of the crypt. When the Letta runes are destroyed under abnormal circumstances, the corresponding tunnel will collapse to block the entry point." Vivian felt the flow of magic for a moment. The careful design of the crypt made her feel even more uneasy. "The rune sealing door, the enchanted rock, and the self-destructing tunnel of the crypt. What is it that is suppressing down there that is worth all this effort?"
Suddenly, a crashing sound came from all directions. Hao Ren looked around and suddenly, his voice changed. "I know what is suppressed down there... Isn't it the undead you were talking about?!"
When the three of them ran in, they did not have the time to see the situation in the hall clearly. Only now did they notice that the hall was not empty. The floor of the hall was embedded with rectangular stone slabs. The slabs protruded less than an inch from the ground. If one did not pay attention, they would have mistaken them for the stone bricks of the crypt. However, these "big stone bricks" were being pushed away one by one. What stuck out from under the slabs were pairs of armored arms!
The hall was basically a tomb. Under the slabs on the ground was a coffin!
Pieces of slabs were pushed aside. Accompanied by the chaotic sound of metal rubbing against each other, countless figures covered in knight armor crawled out from the ground. They looked like European knights walking out of a museum. Even their hair was tightly wrapped in heavy armor. The most unbelievable thing was that the steel that had been buried underground for hundreds of years was not rusted at all. The armor on each "knight" was as bright as new. In Hao Ren's enhanced eyes, he could even clearly see the patterns and clan emblems on the surface of the steel.
These undead knights were holding weapons in their hands. Some were longswords, some were war hammers, and some were short swords and thick shields. Their burial positions were clearly arranged precisely. When these undead rose from the ground, they formed a well-organized and well-organized battle formation.
Presumably, the undead knights who were digging at the wall outside the tunnel were also like this. However, they had been sealed by the collapsed rubble.
Hao Ren had never seen such a scene before. He suddenly felt dizzy, but he did not lose his composure at the last moment. The simple-minded and thick nerves that he had cultivated since he was young made him calm down. Seeing the exit at the other end of the hall, he immediately patted Lily's shoulder and said, "Run to the exit!"
The heavily armored knights who had just woken up were obviously not fully active yet. They moved clumsily and staggered. It seemed that they were not paying attention to Hao Ren and his team for a while. Seizing this opportunity, Lily hurriedly kicked away the undead knight in front of her and rushed to the exit first.
However, Lily's kick had poked the hornet's nest. The swaying undead knights who were in a daze suddenly "woke up". Countless pairs of blood-red light lit up from behind the heavy helmets. The entire underground tomb was filled with a terrifying red light in the blink of an eye!
"Don't block the way!" Seeing this, Lily felt a little scared. She immediately reached out and grabbed a wobbling undead knight that was pouncing towards her. Then, she grabbed the undead knight's arm and swung it like a war hammer. The undead knight that was more than 1.8 meters tall was helpless against such brute force and unconventional fighting style. At that moment, it was swung vigorously by Lily. There was a series of clanking sounds of metal clashing, and the surrounding undead knights were swept away by Lily!
"This big dog is still useful," Vivian praised with satisfaction. She was surrounded by a whirlwind of blood-red light. Gusts of extremely cold air spread out from her in all directions. In the blink of an eye, all the undead knights that were close to her were covered in a thick layer of frost. "Big dog, don't get caught up in the fight. The underground palace is the undead's territory. Go to the surface!"
The sealed underground palace was the undead's home ground. Such an environment was not suitable for flying vampires like Vivian or Lily, who had a wide range of fighting styles. Only when they were on the surface, with the support of the current moonlight, could Vivian and Lily fight with ease.
Lily swung her "war hammer" to open a path in front of the undead. She was like a powerful whirlwind of steel, sweeping everything in her path. Vivian constantly used frosty air and razor-sharp blood-red shockwaves to fend off the undead knights that were pouncing on her from all directions. Even though Hao Ren knew that he was just a normal human, at this critical juncture, he was determined. Even though his opponents were undead, he fought back with all his might. Perhaps it was an illusion, or maybe it was the effect of the legendary adrenaline, but Hao Ren felt that his strength was increasing. He could actually kick the undead knights five meters away!
As they fought and retreated, the three of them finally made it out of the underground mausoleum.
What welcomed them was more sounds of armors clashing against each other — coming from all directions!
