Chapter 460: Horror Descends

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

"Plop!"

The person's body did not even twitch as he hit the water. His back was filled with holes made by bullets, so there was no way he could have lived.

"I think nobody is interested in leaving now, right?"

The old professor's wheezy voice rang out. These people were just some weaselly grave robbers. It was not a big deal if they died. For scumbags like these, there were certainly at least a few lives that'd been ended by their poisonous hands.

"Hu Zi!" Jun Zi hollered with disbelief. Mo Dao's face was also filled with rage. But when he saw the multiple gun barrels turning on them, he silently pulled Jun Zi back.

"Let it go, Jun Zi. Don't bother about it anymore."

The look of fear on Mo Dao's face had completely disappeared, causing everyone to wonder if he hsd been faking everything earlier.

The old professor's group obviously thought so as well. How can someone recover so quickly if they were really genuinely scared earlier?

"Hmph! Aren't you going to continue acting?"

Liu Zijie harrumphed coldly as he looked at Mo Dao in a teasing manner.

"Let's go, we'll continue forward. I have a feeling that we'll make a huge discovery this time!"

The botany professor was incredibly excited at the prospect of finding some more treasured plants. Just the few plants lying randomly along the river bed was enough for the entire world's scientists to study for many years!

"Old Tang, don't be so agitated, be careful of your blood pressure!"

The old man shook his head with exasperation.

The deeper the group went, the louder the strange thumping sounds became. In the end, everyone could even feel their own heartbeats synchronizing with the thumping sounds!

Mo Dao sneered inwardly, not showing anything on his face. 'Go ahead and laugh, there'll be plenty to cry about later on.' Jun Zi also slunk to the back, hiding in the darkness and looking at the crowd mockingly.

Mo Dao was not unafraid. But when he saw his own partner being killed before his eyes, he already knew that there was no chance of him leaving alive.

The man beside Liu Zijie suddenly pointed and shouted, "Quick, look there!"

"That's a man-made tunnel! There's no mistake, the main tomb must be inside there!"

The old professor also turned agitated as the boat's head lamps beamed against the wall, revealing large amounts of marks. These kinds of marks were not left behind by the water current.

The group immediately turned their boat and parked it against the bank.

A moment later, the group stepped onto solid ground once again. Mo Dao and Jun Zi were arranged to the front of the group. After all, every field had their own experts; such a carefully set up tomb would naturally be rigged with traps in case anyone came to disturb it.

The only experts the group had were Mo Dao and Jun Zi. They specialized in robbing tombs, and naturally were familiar with all kinds of traps. The job of leading the way thus fell onto the two.

"There won't be any traps here; just go in directly."

Mo Dao and Jun Zi walked forward boldly, seemingly having no intentions to stop and check.

"Wait, come back here and take us with you!"

Liu Zijie did not dare to be too relaxed in this kind of unfamiliar place. After all, tombs like this were the playground of the two. None of the people present were as learned about tombs as them.

"What's wrong? You were the one who wanted to come, but you're afraid now?"

Jun Zi looked at Liu Zijie with clear disdain in his eyes.

"Hmph! Who knows if you won't play some tricks and set us up?"

Liu Zijie's caution grew as he signaled to the armed soldiers behind him. If the two made any strange movements, they would be shot immediately!

Mo Dao and Jun Zi sneered darkly and walked back with wide steps. After that, the group followed closely behind them cautiously, stepping on the exact same places that Mo Da and Jun Zi had earlier on.

Mo Dao who was walking in front would suddenly stoop down, or hop on one leg from time to time. The large group behind had formed into a single file, following his actions exactly.

'Fortunately I was smart enough; that bastard said that there was no traps? If I really believed him, I won't even know how I died!"

Liu Zijie felt a chill run down his back. If he had not been careful and just walked forward stupidly, he might have already fallen for a trap already.

The two old professors were sweating and panting haggardly. At their age, still having to do these series of movements was asking for their lives!

"Eh? Wait!"

Mo Dao suddenly stopped and held up his hand, making the entire group stop in their steps. In an instant, everyone turned alert and looked around anxiously.

"What? What's going on?!" the people in the back asked urgently. The soldiers sent to protect the two professors were even more befuddled. With their own professional expertize, the road they'd passed through so far did not have any traps at all. But since the old professors mentioned that every field had their own experts, they did not say anything, thinking that perhaps their untrained eyes could not notice the traps.

"Ah, it's nothing... a pebble went into my shoe, and it's a little uncomfortable."

Mo Dao smiled lightly and continued forward with large steps.

Everyone's faces immediately turned black. If not for their usefulness, these two would be thrown into jail immediately to suffer for the rest of their lives!

Although they were unhappy, the group still followed closely after the two. The strange thumping sounds stopped after the group stepped onto the shore. After a few minutes of walking, everyone suddenly stopped and looked upwards with shock.

Before them was a spacious cavern about ten thousand zhang wide. Countless chains hung in the air above them, emanating a frosty chill. The chains were large, being over a meter wide.

The chains shone lightly like glow sticks in the pitch darkness. The area around the chains could be seen clearly, but everything over a hundred meters from the chains was hidden from their eyes.

The group was completely made up of ordinary people, and even Mo Dao was just a Light Jing cultivator. He naturally was not like Bei Feng, able to see the entire cavern with a glance.

If they could see the countless dried bones before them, the group would probably faint on the spot from fright!

How would they still dare to enter? Standing beside the entrance, one could see that under the chains, every dozen meters, there would be a faint red glow.

"Just what materials are these? After so long, it's still shining as if its new. This is not a sealed area, but the chains haven't rusted at all. How unbelievable!"

The group of soldiers immediately became excited, taking out their alloy daggers and hacking it against the chains with their full strength. However, not even a scratch was made!

As soldiers, they naturally understood the value of a metal like this. If they could discover the formula for this sort of metal alloy, the entire technological level of the country would leap forward by at last 20 years in an instant!

"What the hell are you all doing?! Don't touch anything, these are all historical artifacts, it must be preserved properly!" Professor Tang and Professor Ye both chided sternly together. Only after seeing that the chains were undamaged did they breathe a sigh of relief.

"You, go back immediately and tell the commanding officer that we've made an amazing discovery! Tell him to send more people to back us up!"

The soldiers completely ignored the professors. What preservation of antiques or discoveries, all of these were not as valuable as the metal itself. From the moment the chains were discovered, the place was already claimed by the army!

"Peng! Peng!"

The sergeant signaled for a subordinate and grabbed a rifle before opening fire on the chains directly!

"Ding!"

A clear, light sound rang out as the bullet fell to the ground.

Someone walked over and took a look at the place the bullet hit. The spot was as smooth as new, without the slightest damage. The head of the bullet had instead dented inwards!

At this time, the two professors fell silent. They had also witnessed how terrifyingly strong the metal was. Although their research was not towards metals and such materials, they still knew how important a metal that even bullets could not pierce would be to the army!

If this kind of metal was cast into bullets, whatever bulletproof glass and body armor would be just a joke before it! A single bullet would tear through even the toughest armors!

Needless to say, the effect it would have if the metal was used to craft fighter jets and armored vehicles was also too much to imagine.

Very quickly, a soldier turned around and left, taking a boat and jetting off at top speed. The others did not linger and stepped onto the chains to continue forward!

Everyone's anticipation had begun to grow. They had made such grand discoveries the moment they entered the main tomb. If they went further in, what other rewards would they gain?

Only Mo Dao and Jun Zi walking in front were rolling their eyes sarcastically. Did this bunch of people really think it was this easy? As they were walking at the front, nobody noticed their expressions.

Normally, Mo Dao would be extremely careful whenever he entered a tomb. But this time, after being forced to come here, they completely did not care about the possible danger.

That was because he knew that the moment they stepped into the tomb, they had already lost their chance to get out. The candle had never predicted wrongly before!

If they'd left earlier, they might still have been able to escape. But right now, it was impossible.

To actually make the candle burn out in an instant, Mo Dao could not imagine how great the danger in this place was!

Either the place was rigged with traps, or the place only allowed entry and not exit. But the other soldier had managed to leave earlier and their path in was completely free of traps. In that case, there was only one possibility left!

There had to be a terrifying thing inside the tomb! It was either a mummy or some other kind of strange thing!

As the group walked, they suddenly felt a faint breeze blowing their way. A pungent smell of blood assaulted their nostrils, making everyone feel faint and nauseous!

Even the soldiers could not help but retch dryly. It was impossible to imagine what kind of place would have such a thick smell of blood!

Besides, hadn't this place been abandoned for thousands of years? Then where did the bloody smell come from?

"Ah! Jun Zi!"

Mo Da's scream suddenly rang out from in front. The soldiers at the back immediately jumped to the side of the chains and ran to the front.

"How can this be?!"

These soldiers had seen bullets flying by their cheeks and missiles soaring past their heads before, and they had thought that not many things could cause them to feel affected any longer. But this scene before them had caused them to be shocked to the core!

"What's wrong? What's everyone looking at me for?" Jun Zi asked with annoyance.

Mo Dao stammered and said, "J-Jun Zi... you don't feel anything?"

Although he knew that they were dead without a doubt, this horrific scene still caused him to think that he'd thought too lightly about death! Even a man like him who had prepared fully to die was wreaked with terror!

"Bleurgh!"

A soldier could not bear the sight any longer and started to vomit.

"Jun Zi, look at your hand!"

Mo Dao turned his head away, not bearing to look at his close friend.

"Ag-ag."

Jun Zi raised his arm before his eyes, only to see a fleshless palm. His clean white bones shook lightly before his eyes, proving that this set of bones was his own hand!

Looking down lightly, all the flesh and muscles on his body had also disappeared. He could even see his own organs trembling gently. Jun Zi opened his mouth as if to say something, but not a single word came out!

From the side, everyone could see that Jun Zi's body had turned into a white skeleton, only leaving a completely intact head, as well as the unharmed organs inside his rib cage!
