Chapter 526 Lich Saying Hi
Chapter 526 Lich Saying Hi
Half a day later.
" Fuck! FUCKK!"
" Just how many traps are laid here?"
Nathan's face was cold as he looked at his subordinates. Till now, they have been reduced to less than half.
" Mr. Nathan, I don't want to act prude, but I feel you need to clear up things." Luke spoke in a placid voice. " Didn't you say it's at most four floor deep? So, this is the end, right?"
" Unfortunately..." Nathan spoke in a light voice. " It seems like it's one of those five floor pyramids."
" Damn it! Don't you dare to change the subject!" Luke shouted! " We already got a box of gold coins! That should be enough, no!"
" That's just a crumb of bread!" Nathan shouted. " You think that's everything inside this tomb? It's just a distraction!"
" So what?!" Luke shouted. " Didn't we already have enough? What more you want!?"
Suddenly, A brilliant sword appeared in Nathan's hand as he pointed it at Luke.
" If you don't want to die, then shut the fuck up!"
Barry's heart chilled as he felt a powerful aura from Nathan's body.
' This...Is he a knight? His aura...It's at least A rank!'
After mingling here and there, Barry managed to learn quite some secrets.
Church of Radiance and Knight's Templar were the two biggest groups of knights. The remaining knights were either affiliated to old noble families or other factions.
' I can't believe he was hiding his power so well. I need to be careful as I don't certainties I can beat him in fair fight.' Barry thought for a moment before stepping forward.
" Mr. Nathan. Are you sure we only have to go down one more floor?"
" Yes, I am sure of it. Everything, all the clues are showing me the path!" Nathan spoke with excitement.
" I admit we lost some of our members, but think of a bigger picture." Nathan looked at them and spoke.
" Double payment for everyone, even for the deceased."
" You!!"
" Luke, Calm down." Barry clenched Luke's arm and shook his head.
Luke understood Barry's gaze as he sighed.
" Fine, I will lead. But, you must be fast. The air feels supressive here."
" You don't need to worry. There is sufficient air here for all..."@@@@
Suddenly, they heard the noise of heavy footsteps, alarming them.
" Get your weapons ready!"
" Everyone!"
Suddenly, the distant darkness illuminated with torchlight as they saw the tattered state of Professor Johnson and others.
" Hoh, Look at them. Looks like it's not only us who are plagued by bad luck." Nathan chuckled as he looked at Johnson.
Both groups stood at a respectable distance as they pointed weapons at each other.
" Nathan, I hope you don't do anything recklessly." Johnson spoke in a placid voice.
" I am not a warmonger. As long as you give us way, we won't do anything." Nathan spoke.
" What do you mean way? Is the exit not behind you?"
" Nope, It closed after we came down." Nathan shook his head, but suddenly his expression stiffened. " Don't tell me..."
" Yes, Same thing happened in our direction."
" What? How is that possible?"
" Haha! Good! Good, Looks like our materials have arrived."
Everyone tensed up as they saw a figure in a black robe ahead.
" Holy fuck! I almost shit myself."
" A human? Who is he?"
" Damn it! It looks like someone has already reached here faster than us!" Nathan shouted. " Get that bastard!"
As they pointed their guns at him, a terrible roam echoed in the hallway.
" Kill them all! Off their souls!"
" Damn it! They are evil cultists!" Johnson shouted. " Everyone! Protect yours-"
Suddenly an arrow shot toward Johnson. But before it could reach his heart, Gary deflected it with a punch.
" Professor! Are you ok?"
" I am fine! Thanks, Gary!"
" Open fire! OPEN FIRE!"
*BANG! BANG BANG!"
Luke and his men opened fire as bullets shot through the air. However, a crimson wave appeared before the cultist. Like bullets in water, the momentum of fired bullets slowed around him.
" Fuck! It looks like they got a mage or a mutant!"
" Be careful!"
" These bastards. You dare to stand against me?" Nathan clenched his teeth as a sword appeared in his hands.
" DIEE!!!"
Barry's eyelid shrank as he saw Nathan's body covered with a baleful aura. Charging forward like a bull, a single slash killed two cultists instantly.
" Hmph! Foolish to think you can stop us." The cultist laughed as he raised his wands.
" Wanderers of darkness, aid us in our battle!"
" Damn it! They are using the surrounding's negative energy to summon!"
The dark energy in the passage swirled as it turned into shadowy beasts.
*ROAR! ROAR!*
As the unholy beasts of darkness charged forward, bullets became ineffective against them.
" Fools! Your abilities! Drop the guns and pick the cold weapons!"
As two teams of archeologist joined to fight, the pressure on the evil cultists increased quite a bit.
" Ugh! Hang on and keep them away till our lord gets the treasure from the main vault."

Meanwhile...
" Finally we are in the center of the tomb. Let's open the coffi-"
Everyone inside the room suddenly froze as the coffin opened by itself.
" How lovely, you came here faster than I thought.
The evil cultist's expression turned ugly as they saw a lich slowly getting up and looking at them with curious gaze.
" Fuck."
