In the center of the triangular rune circle, an eye suddenly opened in the darkness. It was a normal human eye with white pupils. The size of the eye was about the size of a fish, but it was magnified several times.
* Crack *
* Clang *
Angele turned his head to the side and glanced behind him. He stepped into the room and closed the door behind him.
Angele stepped into the room and checked the surroundings. Suddenly, he felt the wind blowing at his back.
* Clang *
* Crack *
"It's really … a masterpiece that makes people gasp in admiration …"
Every stroke was drawn according to the rune circle on the bone's cell wall.
There was no other information in the rune circle. Angele put the book back to its original position carefully.
Angele was surprised. He activated the Metal Mastery Field again and blocked another strike from the axe.
"It's a normal human, but it dared to stare at a rank 2 wizard who released his mentality wave and was not injured by the elemental mentality wave. How interesting … "Angele walked around the skeleton soldier several times.
He made sure that the skeleton soldier could no longer move and slowly walked to the door.
Behind the door was a khaki-colored altar that was pressed against the wall, facing the door. There were two candlesticks on both sides of the altar; the yellow light from the candlesticks brightened up the area.
Angele opened the door again using the Metal Mastery Field.
Several seconds later, blue light beams appeared from the skeleton's head to its feet and scanned the area from top to bottom.
"The Book of the Dead?" Angele was a bit confused. "If I'm not mistaken, the Book of the Dead usually records the important events of the deceased. There's one here … Maybe there's a tomb under the tree hole? "
"Then is it possible that …" He suddenly thought of another phenomenon. "Or that this triangular simple glyph array is very likely to be used as an intermediary. If it's used on the bones of the dead, it'll have the same effect as the skeleton soldier. Maybe it's used on the magic stones … "
The skeleton soldier was still struggling, but it seemed like it was not injured at all.
The wooden door was made of wooden planks that were glued together. There were vertical cracks on the surface of the planks.
There was a pungent smell of dust in the air and the aroma of burning pine oil could be smelled. The only thing that could be heard in the tomb was the sound of the burning torches.
He took two steps forward and turned around. Only then did he see what was attacking him from behind.
Chi!!
In the middle of the hall was a long stone coffin. The surface of the coffin was inlaid with circles of fine rubies. Every gem was spherical and about the size of an eyeball. It reflected a bright halo in the firelight.
Angele's long red hair looked like a spider web that surrounded the skeleton soldier.
He squatted on the ground, lightly using a metal wire to form a triangular glyph array on the dusty stone floor. Then, he wrote the & symbol on each of the three dots.
In the middle of the altar, a thick red leather book was propped up on a small wooden shelf.
Each glyph array was made up of three points, and each point was a rune similar to an &.
"How about this?" Angele raised his index finger and pointed at the skull.
The center of the triangular glyph array slowly turned into complete darkness. It was like a hole with a bottomless abyss below. There was no light at all.
The skeleton soldier charged at Angele again and slashed at his head with his axe.
There was a row of stone stairs on the other side of the hall. At the top of the stairs, there was another altar with a plate on it. The plate was burning with yellow flames.
The three magic stones all broke into pieces after he put the third magic stone on the plate. The color of the stones changed from black to white.
"Will I die if I do this?" He cut off two of the ribs and stabbed the dagger into his heart.
Angele did not feel anything, it was just emptiness.
"If the rune on the skeleton soldier's body is the foundation of everything, the same thing will happen if I use the magic stones on this one." Angele's brow furrowed.
The skeleton soldier was struggling and its bones were making some cracking noise. Angele put his hand into the man's chest. It was empty. There was nothing inside the man's chest.
The letters were written in the ancient language and they looked like a black skull with two horns on its head. It looked scary.
He had a feeling that the rune he discovered this time might be a turning point for him to become an Ancient Bloodline Sorcerer.
'Scanning … 'Zero reported. A ray of blue light was released from Angele's eyes. The light landed on the skeleton and disappeared into the air.
There was a spacious hall behind the door.
Angele entered the hall from the left and entered the hall from the left. He passed through a short tunnel and saw another wooden door at the end.
The image was reduced to the surface of the skeleton's spine, then the image was reduced to the stem cells on the surface of the bone. The image was reduced again. The cells on the bone turned into a cross-section.
A hologram of the skeleton slowly appeared in Angele's sight.
'Zero, start scanning. Adjust the range of the scan. '
A knight clad in red heavy armor and riding on a warhorse, his entire body burning with crimson flames, was holding a long white scimitar in one hand and raising it up high.
"A skeleton soldier?" Angele was a bit surprised. "I didn't know there were skeleton soldiers in this world."
"What's this?" Angele crouched in front of the rune circle. He was a bit confused and looked around.
The words on the bottom read: Burning Knight Aldo. His bravery is like the sun at noon.
'What kind of energy does this skeleton soldier use to move? 'Angele walked around the skeleton and put his hand into the skull's eyes.
"Yes." Angele's eyes lit up as soon as he finished speaking.
The cells on the bone were changing in his sight. All the cells were engraved with the simple rune circle.
With a swoosh, the long red hair on his back instantly grew long, quickly wrapping around the skeleton soldier's entire body. The skeleton soldier was bound to the ground.
He opened the cover and saw a colorful picture on the first page.
After he was done, he took out three Magic Stones from his waist pouch and placed them evenly on the three runes.
The skeleton soldier moved a little, but it still made cracking sounds as it struggled.
A total of six books were neatly arranged on a slanted wooden shelf.
'Is there no core? 'Angele lowered the silver needle and observed the skeleton carefully.
The wooden door was pushed open.
Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele's eyes.
Angele raised his right hand and inserted the tip of the dagger into the keyhole. The silver metal tip slowly melted and flowed into the keyhole. Angele twisted the dagger slightly.
It was a record of the knight's life, how many years he fought, how many duchies he conquered, and how many achievements he earned. Angele did not recognize any of the duchies and the names. It was a complete stranger.
Angele inhaled deeply after hearing the words.
There was a thin skeleton standing in front of the wooden door.
It was cold and hard when he pressed on it. Some of the ribs were already covered with bone powder. Angele touched the bones and found that the white powder was all over his hand.
'Interesting … 'Angele had a general idea of the skeleton soldier's power level. The skeleton soldier in front of him had the power level of a normal human being. The skeleton soldier in front of him had the power level of a strong man holding a large axe. The attack power of the axe was around 8 to 10 degrees.
On both sides of the hall, there were two rows of semi-enclosed rooms divided into cubicles. There were a total of six rooms, with three cubicles on each side. There was a small platform in each of the boxes, and on each platform was a book, all of which were red books.
Angele's Metal Mastery blocked the axe. Sparks flew off the surface of the shield.
The image changed and he could see the inner wall of the bone cells clearly.
The skeleton soldier's body was covered with white bones and it was holding a rusty black axe in both hands. It was chasing after Angele. The skeleton's bones made some noise every time it took a step forward.
Angele rubbed the ribs of the skeleton soldier.
The skull's eyes were pitch-black, and one could vaguely see a few black bugs crawling slowly inside.
He focused on the head of the skeleton soldier.
A silver shield appeared around Angele's body and blocked a greataxe that was coming at him from the back.
The door was arched and it was about the same height as a human.
Angele walked to the red book and wiped the dust off the surface. Several words appeared on the cover of the book: Book of the Undead.
There were two extinguished torches hanging on both sides of the wide tree wall. A brown wooden door appeared in front of Angele after he walked for about five meters. Strangely, he heard someone screaming, but he did not see any dead bodies in the room.
The inner wall of the bone cells was covered with black triangular rune circles. The rune circles were flashing rhythmically.
* CHI *
A silver needle shot out of the skeleton soldier's forehead and came out from the back of its head.
Angele tried to push the door, but it did not move. There was a keyhole on the left side of the door.
* Crack * The skeleton soldier struggled for a while, but it could not move at all. It was holding the axe high in the air and was about to strike down.
Raising his right hand, he pointed at the skeleton soldier.
The center of the shield was dented and melted into a ball of liquid metal. The liquid metal flew back to Angele's body.
His sight was covered by a thin layer of blue.
'Scan completed. Unknown gene level detected. Do you want to cast the shadow into your sight? '
Angele did not even look at it. He slashed the dagger into the back of the skeleton.
It was empty inside as well.
Looking left and right, there were passageways on both sides. They could go around to the same entrance. There were torches hanging on the walls of the tomb. The burning torch emitted a bright yellow light, illuminating the entire tomb.
