"Mo Fan, Mo Fan …"
Shreev's voice came from behind. Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan were about to engage in a huge battle, but Shreev quickly stopped them.
"Don't do it, these Tomb Torturers aren't interested in living humans," Shreev said.
"Are you sure? Why are they staring at us like that?" Zhao Manyan said.
"They don't have eyes. They are only looking at us because they have never seen living humans before. These Underworld Torturers have very low intelligence. They are the weakest creatures in the Pyramid. They are even weaker than slaves," Shreev said.
"Stay away from me when you're talking, it stinks," Mo Fan said.
"Where are the others?"
"We're here!"
The others soon regrouped. They realized that the Underworld Torturers were not attacking them. They were like a bunch of ferocious monsters, trying to intimidate them into leaving their territory.
"Wuwuwuwu ~!!!!!"
The vengeful spirits that were dragged in were still floating above their heads. Suddenly, a dozen Tomb Torturers leaped into the air and used the Ghost Hooks that had evolved from their palms to drag the vengeful spirits down from the air.
As soon as they reached the surface, the Tomb Torturers immediately transformed into ferocious chefs. The axes in their hands were very effective on the vengeful spirit. The vengeful spirit was completely dismembered in the blink of an eye. The remaining essence of the vengeful spirit slowly fell into the pool at the center of the secret chamber like green water droplets …
"They are killing the vengeful spirits and extracting their Essence of Death. The Essence of Death will flow along the canal in the tomb to another pond, where it will be steamed by the flames of the Hellhounds. It will eventually turn into the best Essence of Death, which will be delivered to the coffins of the Pharaohs. The Pharaohs will be in deep slumber inside the coffins. After a few hundred years of cultivation, they will grow stronger," Shreev explained.
Mo Fan was dumbfounded. These Pharaohs were so extravagant. They still had a bunch of slaves to heat them up even after they died!
"Just ignore them. They are just a bunch of low-intelligence machines, doing the lowest jobs in the Pyramid. The biggest tomb like the Great Pyramid of Giza has at least a hundred factories like this," Shreev said.
"Are there different kinds of slaves in the Underworld?" Mo Fan asked.
"Yeah, they are basically the slaves of the Pharaohs. From the lowest Tomb Torturers to the Tomb Torturers, to the higher-level slave warriors and slave yokers. Even a normal Pyramid has a few tens of thousands of them, let alone the palace of the Pharaohs. We won't even be able to kill them all in a hundred years," Shreev said.
"Living a better life than the living? What an evil old society!" Zhao Manting exclaimed.
"So, what should we do now?" Heidi asked.
"Let's wait for a while. Once the Essence of the Undead is refined, a bunch of Underworld Warriors will come and take the residue away. We'll follow the Underworld Warriors out and search for the entrance to the Underworld," Shreev said.
"Take the residue away?" Heidi was confused.
"Since the Pharaohs are eating the meat, the people under them should at least get some of the leftovers, right? Otherwise, how could such a huge tomb produce so many powerful undead?" Shreev said.
"Oh, what about the Tomb Torturers?"
"Them? What else do they want? They will be slaves for all eternity. They will never be promoted, nor will they be freed. Besides, they never get tired of it. Even the strongest vengeful spirit is at their mercy once it's dragged here, "Shreev said.
As Shreev spoke, Mofan wondered if the Queen of the Netherworld would suffer the same fate if she was dragged into the tomb. After all, these Underworld Torturers did not have any strength, but they had the strongest weapon against the undead.
"Speaking of which, do you know where the entrance to the Underworld is?" Mios asked.
"I've read a lot of ancient records about the Pharaohs. I've also studied the third generation of Gisele. Khufu once told them that the end of the world is at the end of the Sea of Bitterness. If the end of the world is in the direction of the sun, there will be a dark shore. The shore is immortal," Shreev said.
"What's the Sea of Bitterness? Is there such a thing?" Heidi asked.
"The Sea of Bitterness refers to an island in the Red Sea. The water nearby is formed by the tears of billions of living creatures," Mofan said.
Mofan had read the legend at Parthenon. Mofan was greatly astonished by the God of Death, Hayla. He had spent some time studying Hayla while he was meditating at the Parthenon.
"There's a monster on the Island of Bitterness called Hayla. It's the guardian of the Underworld. If you tell it you're going to the Underworld, it won't trouble you," Shreev said.
"Why are you still talking about these ancient legends? Where's the entrance to the Underworld? We're at the Pyramid, not the Red Sea, bro!" Zhao Manyan said impatiently.
"The real entrance to the Underworld is on the Island of Bitterness. We're trying to activate the entrance to the Underworld on the Island of Bitterness, but no one can see the Island of Bitterness in the Red Sea. The Island of Bitterness will only appear when the deathlight of the Great Pyramid of Giza reaches the end of the Red Sea. Once the deathlight reveals the Island of Bitterness in the Red Sea, it means we've found and activated the entrance to the Underworld, "Shreev said.
Mofan had only learned a few bits and pieces of information, but he finally understood after hearing Shreev's explanation.
"What are you talking about!?" Zhao Manyan was confused.
"Old Zhao, the Great Pyramid of Giza is the back entrance, while the Island of Bitterness in the Red Sea is the main entrance. However, the key to the main entrance is in Khufu's hands, "Mofan explained.
It was meaningless to activate the entrance to the Underworld in the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Kingdom of Undead of the Ancient Capital would never be able to enter the Great Pyramid. If they wanted the undead of the Ancient Capital to enter the Underworld in Egypt, activating the entrance to the Underworld on the Island of Bitterness was the best option.
"So you're saying there's a mechanism in the Great Pyramid of Giza that can reveal the Island of Bitterness?"
"It's the Day-Night Needle. When the needle is pointing at dusk, the mysterious starlight will turn into deathlight and illuminate the land. We have to turn the needle in the direction of the Red Sea and direct the deathlight there. The Island of Bitterness will then appear, "Shreev said.
"(Sigh), what nonsense are you talking about? Just tell us what to do," Sayed said impatiently.
"Isn't the Island of Bitterness the entrance to the Dark Plane?" Heidi suddenly spoke up.
As a Dimensional Magician, Heidi was quite knowledgeable about the Plane of Existence.
There were other Planes apart from the world they were in, the most typical being the Dark Plane and the Summoned Plane. Otherwise, where did the Summoned Creatures and the Undead Element come from?
