Chapter 215 The Legendary Seven Throne Tombs

"I said, I said, take that thing away quickly." The skeleton I was trampling on was screaming desperately.

I didn't move my finger away, but just stopped my finger in front of him and said, "Either say it now, or I'll let you know what pain is. You can decide for yourself."

"I said I said, we are really laborers who build the Seven Thousand Tombs, but we are not ordinary laborers. We are foremen here, who are responsible for supervising the work of other workers. As for lying to say that the entrance is outside, it is because we want to get the treasures in the Seven Thousand Tombs ourselves. I..."

Before the guy finished speaking, he pressed his fingers on his forehead. Then the guy shook violently as if he was electrocuted. The powerful man stood up and almost suppressed him. A skeleton had to burn his soul to burst out with such a great force. After all, skeletons had no muscles, and their power was the power of the soul. If they wanted to burst out with power beyond the normal value, they had to burn their souls in excess. However, this guy did not burn his soul to lift me down. In fact, he did not intend to burn his soul at all. The situation just now was actually because of the side effects caused by the fire of his soul with my spiritual burning. He did not burn his soul actively, but was burning his soul passively, and the bursting energy in turn increased his strength. Of course, this kind of power cannot last, after all, the soul is not just used to burn.

After pressing for a few seconds, I found that the guy was almost unable to hold on. I let go of my fingers, and the other party's soul fire had turned into a ball of smoke and rolled and merged in the skeleton's head. After nearly a minute, the chaotic smoke gathered together again and ignited the soul fire with a bang.

"Do you want to tell the truth now?" I asked in an unquestionable tone.

"I...what I just said was the truth, I really..."

This time I simply pressed my fingers into the guy's eyes, and then the guy instantly broke out a more serious struggle than before, and even lifted me off him. Because my soul burning lost support, it stopped immediately, but I immediately called out a large group of death guards to press the guy to the ground again, and then pressed the soul burning up before his soul fire gathered again.

"Ah..." I don't know if it was lucky or unlucky, that guy actually recovered the soul fire the last moment I contacted him, but his soul fire was immediately destroyed by my soul burning as soon as it was ignited.

He didn't cherish it when he gave him a chance before. This time I simply pressed his soul to the point where it was completely impossible to gather if it burned again. However, because it was so burned just now, it would take at least ten minutes to wait for his soul to regain, so I simply walked to another skeleton. The guards of the Death God wisely ran over and pressed the other party to the ground like a wolf or a tiger, and then I held the finger burning the fire of the spirit and asked: "Your companion has been burned by me and my soul is about to collapse. So are you planning to try your soul like him?

What about the pain of being burned a little bit? Maybe you don’t know what kind of pain it is. I can tell you that it is a pain you could never imagine before, because people will fall into a coma after being overstripped, but their souls will not fall into a coma. Even if they are burned into a chaotic state, you will still feel pain, and it is the severe torture that hurts you. I used this method to make three angels and two demons crazy. With the strength of your soul, I think your resistance can last at most for an hour. So are you planning to accept the torture that is more painful than death in this hour or tell me directly what I want to know?”

The soul fire in the skeleton's eyes beat violently for a long time, and various colors flashed alternately on the soul fire many times. Finally, the soul fire finally turned completely white. Then the skeleton said, "I am the country protector who suggested building the Seven Thousand Tombs. What you just tortured is Wu Dun, the Qin general who was responsible for building the Seven Thousand Tombs."

"Then the wind bead we had before?"

"The wind bead is not a key at all, it is just a prop used to create wind tunnel traps. We just hope that you will be blown into the soul crushing array above because of getting the wind bead. Unfortunately, you are too strong and failed to succeed."

"So why did you run away just now?"

"We want to hide in the real seven-hero tomb while you find the entrance."

"The real Seven-Holy Tomb? That thing is here?" I finally heard what I wanted to know the most.

"That's right." The sudden answer was not from the undead on the ground, but the hole behind me. At this time, the ones who could come from there were no ones who could do anything except the first echelon of the Russians.

“It’s pretty early?”

"It's not as early as you." The mage leading the team looked at me and said, "We have been planning this plan for so long, and we even used the large troops from all over the country to cooperate with our acting to attract your attention. But I didn't expect that in the end, it failed. Zi Ri is Zi Ri, and it is indeed worthy of its reputation."

"You have never seen something that I am worthy of. Now, what is worthy of is worthy of is our guild's intelligence collection ability. I can't detect your actions alone. But then again, how do you know the tasks of our country? It seems that such tasks related to the national historical process will not be released to foreigners? Could it be...?"

"If you can think of it, guess it yourself. I won't tell you anyway." The other party saw through my intention to deceive him and cunningly told me my intention.

"Actually, it's meaningless if you know it now." I signaled the Death Guard to let go of the skeleton first, and then threw the crystal powder into his eyes. His soul fire instantly ignited a raging flame, and the excess even spurted out of his eye sockets. However, with the fire, his broken arm grew quickly, and the bones on his body also gradually changed toward the metal texture. Unfortunately, the color only changed a little and stopped. Obviously, the little crystal powder was not enough to allow him to evolve from a gray skeleton to a metal skeleton. "Take him away first." I whispered to the skeleton and directed the Death Guard to carry the skeleton that had not yet recovered to climb up the hole wall.

Seeing the two skeletons and my God of Death guard climbing up the wall, the man on the mage immediately nervously wanted to step forward, but I moved one step in the middle to block them all. "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, give me some face, right? Don't use me as air, otherwise you will suffer a loss."

Just as I was talking, the skeleton of the national master had already climbed to the top of the cave. With the crystal powder I had supplemented, his physical fitness was obviously much stronger than before. He pulled a rock on the top of the cave and immediately exposed a hole on the wall of the cave that could allow a person to barely penetrate. The skeleton quickly drilled into the hole, and then my God of Death guard also crawled in one after another.

Seeing the skeleton and the God of Death guard disappearing on the wall, the Russians below immediately became anxious, but as soon as they were about to move, I suddenly took another step to the side to block it, and the other party immediately retreated timidly. If the group fights, these people are not afraid of me, but the single-handed fight will be different. As long as they are not completely stupid, few people outside the top ten of the combat power list will think they can single-handed fight with me.

"Do you want to get over?" I hooked my finger to the guy who was planning to rush forward just now. "Just defeat me. Come on, young people, don't be afraid of failure, have to have the courage to challenge? Come on, you can get over if you defeat me. If you are scared, you will never have the day to defeat me."

The guy who was planning to rush forward just now was a relatively young person in the team. The young man of seventeen or eighteen was full of energy. Now I can't help it anymore when I was excited. He suddenly screamed and rushed up with his weapon. Kuke, who was standing beside him, reached out and couldn't hold him back. The next second, a red light flashed, and the guy was instantly blown into a pile of flying blood foam and sprayed Cook, who was chasing him, all over his head and face.

"Hahahaha, it's so good to be young. He really believes it just a few words."

"You demon!" Cook couldn't help but shout.

I looked at Cook with a sneer and said, "No, I am not a demon. I am the devil, the demon among the demons. If you don't want to die in my hands, it's better to get away, especially don't step into my sphere of influence again, otherwise I will let you know what the real demon is. By the way, you are probably going to die here this time, so I suggest you start attacking now, anyway, I will still kill you all later."

"you……"

"Don't you, me, aren't we enemies? The enemy should look like an enemy. Come on, attack me as much as possible, I will make you die very happily."

"Don't bully people too much."

I raised my hand and threw it out with a red light and instantly blew the guy who was interrupting into a pile of rotten meat. "What are you talking about, the leader, what are you doing?"

"It's going to be dead if you wait. Let's go together and fight with him." A guy shouted and rushed up first.

I put him down to the ground and praised him, "Yes, I just need this kind of spirit. What about the others? Is there just one man among you?"

The remaining first-tier personnel finally launched a charge, but unfortunately, I am not unable to summon the demon pet now. I will not be afraid of group fights when my strength is not overwhelmed. Those guys rushed forward and my demon pet also rushed forward. The people on both sides quickly collided and had a melee. But the difference is that my demon pet is either super large or super high in level, and each of them is extremely terrifying. The entire battlefield is almost one-sided. With less than ten minutes of the battle, there were only corpses left on the ground. Of course, the corpses are all from the other party. Except for Ling who was scratched by a demon-breaking arrow, I can almost say that there are zero casualties.

After dealing with the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, the other party was left with the three leaders. Of course, it would be meaningless to me whether they were alive or not. Anyway, they could do nothing.

"Kill them." Seeing that there were only three people left, I lost my interest in taking action, so I waved my hand to let the demon pets settle it, while I had already walked towards the previous hole wall.

Looking at my three magic pets who were gradually surrounding them, the mage in the middle suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute."

"Hmm? Are you still in trouble?" I turned to look at the three guys and asked.

"We want to talk to you about the transaction." said the mage.

"Are you crazy?" Big Bear and Cook looked at the mage in surprise and asked.

The mage quickly explained to the two companions: "If we don't trade, we can't make anything. At least we can get some benefits when trading with Zi Ri. Do you want any benefits or nothing at all?"

After hearing the mage's words, the two gradually became quiet. As the mage said, if they traded with me, they might get some benefits, but if they resisted to the end, it would have no meaning except to kill themselves once.

Seeing that the two companions accepted their views, the mage said to me again: "President Zi Ri, I know we are not your opponents, but if you kill us, you will not get any benefits."

"Oh? Can you get it by just making a deal with you?"

"Of course." The mage said and touched the robe. The demon pet beside me quickly moved to the middle and blocked me behind me. He thought he was going to use some weapon. But the guy took out a scroll and a gem from his body and said, "Since you can follow us here, you should know what is inside. But even if you get that thing, it's useless, because its core is not there."

"So that's the thing in your hands is the core?" I asked at the gem and scroll.

The mage nodded and said, "The gem is the core, and there is a spell recorded on the scroll. But don't be robbed, because even if you get it, you won't get anything. Because the spell on the scroll is written in a very special text, the npc that we posted the task when we were accepting the task once taught us how to read these words, but you can't understand these words, so we can't use the spell correctly at all. Without the spell, even if you get the gem, the treasure can only be a bunch of useless garbage. How about it? Come and make a deal with us? We don't want much. Four or six, you can get the big head, and we only have a small head. If you agree, we will go in and open the treasure together, and then we can read the spell for you. How about it? Make a decision?"

When I heard the guy's words, I stretched out a hand and said, "Since that's the case, you can give me the things first. Anyway, according to your words, it's useless to have things alone. If what you said is true, you shouldn't mind giving me the things first, right?"

After hearing my words, the mage only hesitated for a moment and walked towards me, while Big Bear and Cook grabbed him. He looked at the two and said, "Don't worry, he can't understand anything anyway."

The two of them thought for a moment and let go. Seeing that they let go, the mage walked over and handed the gem of the scroll to my hand. After taking the gem, I did not look carefully, but handed it to Ling beside me to help me grab it. Then I took the scroll myself and spread it in front of me.

Since the master handed me the scroll, he has been staring at my face nervously. When he saw my brows frowning, he immediately smiled and asked with a smile: "How is it? You can't understand it, right? Tell you, I have already identified this thing, it is neither Chinese nor ancient Chinese characters. Even if you are a Chinese, it is useless. You can't understand this thing at all. Come and cooperate with us? We only need 40%, you can get the big head. How about it? Do you agree? You are not losing money in this transaction. You can get at least half of your cooperation. If you don't cooperate, you can't even get the root hair. You should be able to calculate this account, right?"

I finally raised my head with the mage's smug smile, and then suddenly slapped the mage out with a slap. Big Bear and Cook immediately wanted to rush up to help, but they stopped suddenly as soon as they made the move, because there was a blood hole in their necks, and Ye Yue was scrubbing the blood on her two snake swords behind them.

After the two guys fell out of defense, I waved my hand and turned around and walked towards the hole in the wall, but after I walked a few steps, the mage suddenly rushed over and hugged my legs and shouted: "President Zi Ri, you can't leave! You can't read spells without me. If you don't have spells, it's useless if you open the treasure. What I said is true. Don't leave, trade with me!"

Looking at the wizard who was holding my legs, I lifted my legs and kicked him under the wall in front, and then took the scroll and said, "You idiot, you went to verify whether this is Chinese. I think you should learn Chinese history first. China is not your insect-like country, we are the only one among the five ancient civilizations that has not been dying. There are so many kinds of words in Chinese history that we haven't even studied them clearly. You actually said that you have checked it and this is not Chinese. Okay, I will let you know the profoundness of our Chinese culture now. Yes, this thing is not written in Chinese.

It is not any ancient Chinese characters for communication. The document on this thing is a tripod, a special text that is only used for sacrificial instruments and burial objects. You can understand it as a text for the dead, and it is a text specifically for the ancestors who died. In the Chinese ethics, this thing is a sacred text used to communicate with ancestors, so it will never appear in daily life. In ancient China, only special priests wrote this text, and most people did not recognize this thing at all. You would be stupid enough to find someone to identify whether this thing is Chinese. Can you identify it?”

When he heard my words, the mage was almost ashamed. He had been confident and hoped to use a spell that no one could understand to threaten me to share the treasure with him. As a result, I could actually recognize this text, which was equivalent to instantly making his use value infinitely close to zero. What made him even more depressed was that he actually handed the thing directly into my hands. If he had known that I had recognized this text, he would never handed it to me even if he destroyed it. After all, the original intention of handing it to me was that they could get a part. If they could not get it at all, of course they would rather I than get it. After all, it was a hostile relationship now, so it was better to destroy it than to get it. Now the mage regretted it and wanted to slap himself in the face.

Seeing that guy regretted it, I was too lazy to kill him by myself, but if I didn't do it, I would naturally have a magic pet to help me do it. The king walked over and grabbed his hair with one hand, pulled the sword around his neck with the other hand, and then threw him on the ground like a chicken, letting him kick and die gradually.

I put away the scroll and gems and then put away the demon pets. The hole in the wall is relatively narrow, and the large demon pets will definitely not be able to get through. Besides, it is not convenient to bring so many people to drill. After putting away the demon pets, I walked to the edge of the cave wall and climbed to the top of the cave. As for the hole, it seems that it was a bit difficult for me to drill through. Fortunately, this hole is just made of rocks, and using eternity to easily cut the protruding rock to expand the diameter of the cave, which makes it much more convenient to drill.

In fact, the hole is really narrow, which is only a small section of more than one meter long at the entrance. After passing through the passage, the hole behind it begins to gradually grow. After climbing forward three or four meters, you can crawl on all sides instead of crawling forward. After one or two meters forward, the height of the cave can even bend down and walk inside. The cave ten meters away is so wide that it is no problem to play high jump inside.

After walking forward for more than fifty meters along this passage, the passage suddenly turned a right-angle bend of ninety degrees to the left. When I turned the corner, the scene in front of me suddenly stunned.

Although the part before the bend is gradually widening, it is still a passage, but the part after the bend cannot be described as a passage. This is simply a dungeon, and it is a super metropolitan dungeon. Its area is so large that I can't see the hole wall opposite without starting the observation assistance.

"Sir, you are finally here. Have you dealt with the matter over there?" The skeleton of the national teacher who had rewarded me with some crystal powder before saw me appearing at the corner and immediately ran over to say in a flattering manner.

"What is this?" Looking at the huge dungeon in front of me, I was in no mood to pay attention to this former national teacher. The ancient style of buildings and neat streets all made me excited. You should know that this place is in Chinese territory, which means that it can be occupied and built into our own city. The city in front of me has obviously been basically completed. All we have to do is to make some small transformations and then use it directly. Not to mention the treasures here, this city alone is worth the fare.

However, after seeing this city, I regretted killing those three guys. Because I really want to know whether the original purpose of the Russians was a treasure or this city. You must know that this city was built underground. In "Zero", there is a rule about urban cities that are - cities with no ground buildings except for exits and vents, do not enjoy urban territory circles.

Originally, according to the system's explanation, this rule should be a punitive rule. Because dungeons are obviously much simpler than ground cities when conducting monster siege defense wars, and dungeons are naturally easier to defend, which is an innate advantage. However, if everyone builds dungeons, the style of the entire game will be broken. Therefore, in order to make a little balance between dungeons, the system gives dungeons such a rule.

Generally, cities will have their own territory circle after establishment. If the city level is high enough, the city personnel can get some special attribute bonuses within this range. In addition, the urban territory circle has a more important role, which is to divide the boundary line. When two guilds build two cities in a relatively close area, the system will automatically divide the boundary line according to the territory circles of the two cities, so that it can be more clearly known where is whose territory. Similarly, in the war between countries, the urban territory circle can also be used to mark and occupy other countries' territory, and this is also the main function of building cities in other countries.

But the dungeon is different. It has no territory circle, and except for the city scope, the land above its head does not belong to its territory. This attribute makes the dungeon unable to be used to occupy other countries' territory, nor is it suitable for demarcating boundaries between guilds, and even the supply points of the advanced leveling area are not suitable for using dungeons. After all, high-level ground cities can provide some attribute assistance to leveling people, but the dungeon cannot provide anything. Such cities are naturally not suitable for building in the leveling area.

However... the problem of the dungeon without a territory circle may be a very useful attribute at this stage. Because if the Russians occupied this dungeon here, then because the dungeon does not have a territory circle, the surrounding guilds will not find that their territory has become smaller. That means they will not know that there is an additional Russian city here. On the contrary, although the underground cities do not have a territory circle, if the Russians occupy it, then the inside of its city will indeed be considered Russian territory. In other words, the Russians can use their domestic teleportation array to teleport here at will, and as long as they leave from the exit of the dungeon, it will be equivalent to crossing the border to enter the inland area of ​​our country. This is equivalent to establishing a super teleportation point within our country. If such a nail is blocked within the national gate, it is definitely not a good thing.

Regret no matter how much I regret it, no matter what, I have killed everyone, and I have no chance to go back on my word. Besides, even if they don’t lose their money, I won’t tell me the truth, so it’s probably useless if I don’t kill them.

After I asked him, the Skeleton Master immediately replied very politely: "This is where the workers lived when the Seven Thousand Tombs were built. Because the Seven Thousand Tombs were large and could not be completed in a short period of time, we built a city here to facilitate the workers' lives and work."

"What? This place is not the Qixiongzu?"

"Of course not." The skeleton of the national teacher replied: "The Seven Thousand Tomb is a building, not a city. Of course, the actual size of the Seven Thousand Tomb is actually comparable to that of the city, and the construction difficulty is much greater than that of the city. Otherwise, it would not have taken three generations to complete it."

I nodded and asked, "Since there is a city here, there should be a lot of laborers, right?"

"Well, I don't know the specific number, but there should be about 150,000 people."

"Fifteen thousand people? Then why did I find only a few thousand skeletons over there?"

"Oh, that's it." The national master explained: "We recruited many people to work at the beginning. Some of them were originally families, some later got married here and gave birth to descendants. They worked here all their lives, and their children became laborers who built the Seven Thousand Tombs. After their death, their bodies were buried outside the Seven Thousand Tombs to provide death. Their sons continued to work here and became a new family, but the children of these families were taken away and sent to the outside to raise them after being weaned, so they would not know what happened here. As children were sent away, the population here continued to decrease due to the death of the elderly and various accidents. In the end, only about 20,000 to 30,000 people were left, and these people were already old. Most of them died one after another in the last few years of the construction of the Seven Thousand Tombs, and then after the completion of the Seven Thousand Tombs, there were only a few thousand people left."

"That's the thousands of people in the place where I found you?"

"Yes." said the national master: "I was ordered to go there with the general and execute the last laborers, so that no one knew what was going on here. But..." When he said this, the national master's soul fire began to flash, and his feelings were obviously fluctuating greatly. "But... what I didn't expect in the end was that the official who accompanied us was actually a dead soldier. He wanted to drink celebration wine with us on the excuse of completing the task. Who knew that he used poisoned wine, and even he himself and us died of poisoning."

"So that's it. You're so unfair to die." I suddenly changed my mind and asked, "But since you were killed by the monarch, why should you keep the secret here for him?"

"We don't!" Not only the national guru, but also the general skeleton just now, also started to scream. His soul fire had recovered long ago, but because it was burned too hard, he was a little slow to react. However, what I said just now made him think that I was going to punish them again, which scared him so much that he quickly denied it.

"No? Since you don't want to hide, why did you just trick me into the fake entrance?"

"This...this..."

"What's this one? Do you want to taste the power of soul burning?"
To be continued...
