Chapter 1698 - 1698 Void Lurking Beast

1698 Void Lurking Beast

Upon hearing this, Dodd’s team immediately followed behind the group.

Fana and the others led the way, turning on their flashlights, and descended the stairs into the depths of the mausoleum.

Fang Heng walked in the middle of the group, accompanied by a group of Lickers.

As they ventured deeper, the pa.s.sage ahead soon opened up. On both sides of the pa.s.sage, there were murals painted on the stone bricks.

The Dodd’s team became interested upon seeing the murals and began taking photographs and examining them carefully.

The pa.s.sage ahead was pitch black, and its length was not immediately apparent.

Fang Heng wasn’t in a hurry. He signaled the team to slow down and took his time examining the murals.

The murals depicted a terrifying and gigantic monster, locked in battle with humans wearing peculiar masks.

Huh?

Fang Heng suddenly turned his head and examined the Black Castle players accompanying Fana.

The style of the masks on the murals seemed quite similar to those worn by these players.

Dodd carefully examined the images on the wall and was the first to speak, “Mr. Fang, the mural describes the bravery of the dependents as they fought against an evil creature, ultimately achieving victory. It’s highly likely that the warriors buried here are the ones who sacrificed themselves in the battle against the monster.”

“Hmm, be cautious, and let’s proceed further,” Fang Heng said.

The group continued down the pa.s.sage, quickly leaving the pa.s.sage area and entering a more open cave.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”

As Fang Heng followed Fana into the cave, his sharp perception sensed that there were pairs of eyes watching him closely in the darkness!

“What’s there?”

Fang Heng immediately swung his flashlight in the direction of the lurking presence.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

In the distance on the rock wall, a dark, crawling creature swiftly darted out of the flashlight’s beam and disappeared into the crevices of the rock wall.

Everyone caught a fleeting glimpse of the creature.

What kind of creature was that?

It was about a meter long, rapidly crawling against the rock wall. Their movements were so fast that their appearance couldn’t be discerned.

“Fang Heng, this place is very similar to the entrance where our previous team was trapped. What we just saw is a special creature called Void Stalkers. They’ve undergone special modifications by the dependents and are under their control.”

“Normally, our psychic abilities work against them, restraining them, but because there are so many Void Stalkers, we can’t handle them all.”

Fana explained this to Fang Heng as she cautiously approached the rock wall ahead.

“Void Stalkers possess a unique spatial movement ability. They can directly pa.s.s through rock walls, and we can’t see them now. But if they launch an attack, there could be thousands of them.”

“They usually don’t attack on their own, but if we attack the stone door, it will provoke them.”

While she was speaking, Fana walked directly to the front of the rock wall, stopped, and turned to Fang Heng. “Fang Heng, we’ve arrived. This is the main entrance to the lower level of the mausoleum.”

Fang Heng looked at the wall behind Fana.

There was a large door made of blue stone blocks, engraved with unique patterns specific to the alien sp.a.w.ns.

The iron door was tightly wrapped with more than a dozen chains made of blue stones.

The chains gave an eerie feeling, as if they were carved illusions.

It was fake.

Fang Heng nodded to Dodd behind him, and Dodd was immediately excited to bring the team closer for inspection.

Since arriving on the island, the various discoveries along the way had filled Dodd’s team with excitement.

“It’s the text of the dependents! There are records of the dependents on it!”

After observing the door for a moment, Dodd immediately made a discovery and exclaimed excitedly.

“What did it say?”

“Well, it probably says that below lie the brave warriors who fought valiantly and perished… The warriors defeated the monsters but were also tainted by the blood of the monsters. They are forever buried here, and their memory will be honored by various races. No one is allowed to enter the mausoleum without permission. Unauthorized entry will result in a wanted status issued by both the dependents and the Interstellar Joint Commission.”

Dodd furrowed his brow and tried hard to translate, “This is a decision made by the highest council of the dependents, and no one can change it. Violators will face the harshest punishment.”

Fang Heng listened curiously and asked, “What does ‘tainted by the blood of the monsters’ mean?”

Dodd rubbed his chin, hesitated for a moment, and said, “I can’t be sure, but I feel like it’s more of a metaphorical description.”

Fang Heng then looked at Fana and asked, “Any clues?”

“Sorry, I’ve never heard of this before, and we don’t know much about the other mausoleum either,” Fana replied. She also noticed the prayers on the door and looked solemn.

She then pointed to a triangular hole in the blue stone door. “I mentioned this before, the key we need. In a previous mission, we only found one key, but unfortunately, it’s not in our possession now.”

“What specific mission was it?”

“I’m not sure. Another team was responsible for the mission, and I only know that it was in an advanced game world, with extremely high difficulty. It took the team several years to find clues and obtain the key.”

“Hopefully, we can find something here.”

With that, Fana nodded to her Black Castle companions behind her.

The Black Castle players also stepped forward to inspect the stone door entrance and tried to trigger the door using their psychic abilities.

Fang Heng shrugged. At this moment, finding another mausoleum was undoubtedly a significant discovery. Perhaps they could find a way to enter the mausoleum from here.

While Dodd’s team and the Black Castle team were busy searching, Fang Heng surveyed his surroundings.

After leveling up as a King-level vampire bloodline, his perception of blood had greatly improved.

He could feel the flow of blood in the darkness.

He could even distinctly sense hidden creatures lurking in the darkness.

Were they coming for him?

Fang Heng couldn’t help but ask, “Are Void Stalkers very strong?”

Fana’s expression turned serious. “Void Stalkers can be cla.s.sified as creatures of the agility form, and in advanced games, they are considered normal-strength creatures. They have special abilities to move through rock walls, making them challenging to deal with in the current cave environment.”

“After undergoing half-mechanical modifications by the alien sp.a.w.ns, they have become even more formidable.”

In another large mausoleum, even elite players from advanced games found themselves helpless against a large number of Void Stalkers.

Fana believed that forcibly breaking through this situation might not be the best idea.

“The most troublesome thing is their quant.i.ty. In another mausoleum, the Void Stalkers seemed endless, and they could overwhelm our team with their numerical advantage.”
