Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

[Hint: The hunter has entered the hidden area, the Temple of Shia/Tomb of the Undead. ]

[The Shia Temple is a highly dangerous area, and the rewards such as treasure chests and the origin of the world are increased by 20%. ]

[Because the Shia Temple is a hidden area, if you need to enter the Shia Temple (outskirts), the hunter needs to consume 600 Paradise Coins per hour. If the Paradise Coins are insufficient, the hunter will be forcibly teleported to the entrance of the Shia Temple. ]

Compared with the name "Temple of Shia", Lin Yi increasingly felt that the name "Tomb of the Undead" was more appropriate.

Not to mention other aspects, the stone corridor where he was at the moment alone had the atmosphere of a mausoleum.

“Is this the secret that has been guarded by our ancestors for generations?”

The Seventh Prince walked up to the two of them and shook his head helplessly after seeing the pitch-black scene. He thought that the secret kept by the royal family was very important, but now it seems that this is just someone's grave.

"Seventh Brother, do you know how to get out of this crappy place?"

Lin Yi gently poked the Seventh Prince in the side with his elbow.

The Seventh Prince was obviously very sensitive to this action. He immediately covered his waist and moved away from Lin Yi.

“Don’t look at it. I don’t know how to get out of this crappy place. Not to mention me, the old man probably doesn’t know either. Although we are the guardians of secrets, to put it bluntly, we are just gravekeepers.” There was a hint of self-mockery in the seventh prince’s words.

Hearing the word "gravekeeper", Lin Yi and Su Xiao suddenly felt that the Seventh Prince was right.

Such a large mausoleum does need a gravekeeper to guard it.

But they didn't expect that this gravekeeper would be so successful in the outside world.

No, perhaps it was because he received some kind of help. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for King Adelaide Herbert to pacify the five kingdoms and establish a unified Saint Sodin Kingdom in just ten years.

After completing the main mission, Lin Yi and Su Xiao now have quite a few Paradise Coins on them, which is roughly enough for the two of them to stay for at least ten days.

Lin Yi walked to both sides of the corridor and touched the stone bricks on the corridor. A cool feeling spread from his fingertips to his palms. The surrounding red square stones were a little wet, which made the corridor full of musty smell.

Dang, dang, dang... knocking sounds came slowly from the front.

As the three of them continued to go deeper, the knocking sounds became closer and closer.

The sound was like someone hitting something with a hammer, and it was extremely crisp.

"Is there anyone alive here?" Lin Yi was slightly stunned and stopped.

He listened carefully to the knocking sound and found that it was not a mechanical knocking sound, but would stop to rest for a while from time to time and then continue knocking.

This means that the thing hammering inside is not a lifeless machine.

"Woof~"

Bubu Wang behind Su Xiao let out a soft cry. It was obvious that the idiot was scared at the moment.

It is worth mentioning that Bubuwang is not afraid of monsters or strong enemies, but the only thing he is afraid of is "ghosts".

The ghosts that Bubuwang knows are not ghosts or wronged spirits, but the ghosts that he knows from horror movies.

This guy often watches horror movies. He gets scared every time, but he can't help but continue watching.

God knows why Bubu Wang is afraid of ghosts. If we judge according to normal thinking, ghosts are not scary things at all.

Take Su Xiao for example, he had killed countless people on the battlefield.

If there really were ghosts, they would be so scared that they would tremble in fear and run faster than a rabbit after seeing the blood on his body.

If a ghost like Sadako appeared in front of Su Xiao, Su Xiao would go up and give it a side kick, then tie it up on the alchemy test bench and carefully study its structure.

Within half a month, the so-called ghosts will become pitiful.

Despite this, Bubu Wang is afraid of ghosts. At this moment, he got a Bagua mirror from somewhere and hung it around his neck, and held a cross in his mouth. It can be said to be a combination of Chinese and Western cultures.

Ding, ding, ding... The three continued to move forward. When they reached the corner, the knocking sounds had become very clear, and the farthest distance could not exceed a hundred meters.

Not only was there a knocking sound, but a wave of heat also hit us in the face. The surrounding walls were no longer damp, but instead had a dry warmth.

"Blacksmith?" The seventh prince muttered in a low voice.

Obviously, the presence of a blacksmith here is extremely strange no matter how you look at it.

You know, this is under the throne, the entrance hasn't been opened for many years, and even the elevator is rusted.

So, what the hell is this blacksmith in front of me?

Su Xiao didn't say a word and decisively drew the Dragon Slash from his waist. The Seventh Prince also quickly picked up his sword.

The two walked in front, protecting Lin Yi behind them.

There is a corner in the stone corridor ahead, and the knocking sound comes from behind the corner.

When they arrived at the corner, Lin Yi clearly felt that the temperature around him continued to rise, as if the corner was covered by hot magma. A scorching heat wave hit his face, making it almost impossible to breathe.

The Seventh Prince leaned his back against the rock wall and stood cautiously at the edge of the corner.

He slowly extended the sword in his hand out of the corner, trying to use the reflection of the sword to observe the situation behind the corner.

The reflection of the sword is certainly not comparable to that of a mirror, but it can still vaguely show the general situation around the corner.

From the blurry reflection, it can be seen that there is nothing after the corner, and it is still a not very long stone corridor.

The seventh prince was the first to turn the corner. He soon discovered that the knocking sound did not come from the end of the corner, but from the doorway on the stone wall next to it.

The knocking sound was now very close, and the Seventh Prince slowly approached the doorway.

Su Xiao stood behind Lin Yi to cover his retreat. Both of them knew that the first priority now was to protect Lin Yi, the auxiliary.

The doorway is about two meters high and one meter wide, and the crisp knocking sounds continue.

The Seventh Prince looked into the doorway, and when he saw the situation inside clearly, he was visibly stunned, and the knocking sounds in the doorway also stopped abruptly.

"It seems... there is no danger."

The Seventh Prince's expression was full of confusion, as if he had seen something extremely unexpected.

Seeing the Seventh Prince's behavior, Lin Yi and Su Xiao became more curious and walked to the door together.

As soon as Lin Yi arrived in front of the doorway, waves of heat rushed towards him like a surging tide. The scorching breath made him subconsciously take out a bottle of liquid nitrogen and throw it on the ground.

As the liquid nitrogen evaporated quickly, the rapid cooling effect gradually became apparent, and Lin Yi felt that the surrounding temperature had returned to normal.

Inside the doorway is a space of about several dozen square meters, which is red inside, as if a raging fire was burning.

Inside was a forging table and an old-looking furnace, with some burning objects similar to coal placed next to the furnace.

A sturdy figure about 1.5 meters tall stood quietly in front of the forging table.

There was also a half-finished saber on the forging table, the blade emitting a faint cold light.

This sturdy figure was covered in iron armor. His shape was exactly the same as that of a human, except that he did not have eyeballs but two probes instead.

These two probes look like old-fashioned telescopes, covered with rust, as if they have experienced the baptism of a long time.

The most peculiar thing about the sturdy figure is not his eyes, but his head.

The top of his head appeared to have been split into three parts and then held together with rivets and large staples.

"Kona? (Necromancer: Human?)"

The sturdy figure spoke slowly, and under the reflection of the surrounding fiery red light, he appeared a dark red figure.

As if realizing that it was inappropriate to speak the necromancy language with Su Xiao and others, he first put down the hammer in his hand. The heavy hammer fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Then he grabbed his head with both hands, his movements a little stiff.

"Click." The sturdy figure pulled down the two sides of his head with force, leaving them like two pieces of cut watermelon. The brain tissue at the fracture was clearly visible, which made people tremble with fear.

He switched the positions of the two heads and pressed down hard.

There was another "click" sound, and the sturdy figure shook his head, as if adapting to the new situation.

"Human?" This time he spoke human language, his voice was low and hoarse, with a unique texture.

This series of operations really stunned Bubuwang.

Bubu Wang subconsciously touched his head with his paw, as if he was glad that his head could not be disassembled and reassembled so easily.

[Comparing the intelligence attributes of both parties... There was an error in the comparison. The other party is a neutral unit. You have obtained the following information. ]

……

After finding out each other's information, Lin Yi and Su Xiao fell into silence at the same time.

Then, the two of them took a step back at the same time, moving a little further away from the doorway.

Damn, no wonder the old king was so confident and thought that Su Xiao would die if he dared to come under the throne.

This ghost place is indeed a bit dangerous. The first person the three people met was actually the big boss, and he was the kind of big boss who looked terrifyingly powerful at first glance.

If all the bosses to come are of this level, then Su Xiao and Lin Yi don’t have to think about how to explore the Xia Temple, but should pack up their things early, go back to the ground and take a shower.

The corners of the Seventh Prince's eyes twitched slightly, and he secretly estimated in his heart.

According to his judgment, he might be able to withstand three hammers from the opponent, no, at most he would die if he was hit by two hammers.

As for killing the tomb guardian Reed, don't joke, this thing is not a monster that three people can deal with.

"Hello, humans." The tomb guardian Reed smiled at Su Xiao and the others. The metal pieces inlaid on his face folded together with his smile, making a slight friction sound.

Su Xiao kicked Bubuwang, signaling Bubuwang, whose charm attribute was 75 points, to come forward to negotiate.

Bubuwang's face looked embarrassed. Bubuwang was very afraid of ghosts, especially when Reed was in this state. After seeing Reed, Bubuwang started to tremble and couldn't walk steadily, let alone intervene.

Lin Yi sighed and walked forward helplessly.

"Hello, senior."

The tomb guardian Reed looked Lin Yi up and down. Although he didn't have a strong favorable impression of him, he didn't dislike him either.

"Senior, would you like a cigarette?" Seeing that Reed stopped talking, Lin Yi suddenly didn't know what to say. He just gave up and took out a pack of cigarettes from his personal space.

He pulled one out and handed it to Reid.

"What is this?"

Reed had obviously never seen this thing before. After taking the cigarette, he looked at it over and over again, with a look of confusion on his face, not knowing what was so good about it.

Seeing this, Lin Yi took out a lighter, lit a cigarette for himself, and then blew out a smoke ring.

Then Lin Yi lit the lighter and handed it to Reed.

After seeing this scene, Reed put the cigarette in his mouth for some reason, then moved closer to Lin Yi and lit the cigarette with a lighter.

He imitated Lin Yi and took a puff, but apparently he used too much force and started coughing.

But the next second, Reid's eyes lit up.

After smoking this thing, Reed immediately felt his brain relaxed a lot. It was much more fun than forging iron.

You should know that a pack of Lin Yi's cigarettes can be sold for 200 park coins in the park, so the effect is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary cigarettes.

After Reed finished smoking a cigarette, Lin Yi could clearly feel that the pressure from Reed around him had eased a lot.

[The mausoleum guardian Reed's favorability towards the hunter increases by 10 points. ]

[Hint: The hunter has activated the personal favorability of the important figure, the tomb guardian Reed, and the current favorability is: 30. ]

"This thing is good. Do you have any more?" Reed spread his hands towards Lin Yi with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Lin Yi thought for a moment, then took out a cigarette from his personal space and handed it to Reed.

In his opinion, it is best not to fight a big boss like Reed if possible. After all, if a fight really breaks out, none of the five people in the team may survive.

"Okay, stop standing at the door, come in." Reed opened a pack of cigarettes and waved to Su Xiao and the Seventh Prince who were standing at the door.

Bubuwang was the first to rush in, seeming to be full of curiosity about this place.

Reed didn't react much when he saw Bubuwangwang. However, things were different when Bubuwangwang took out a betel nut from his personal space.

Su Xiao almost couldn't hold back after seeing this scene.

These two guys, one taught Reed to smoke and the other taught Reed to chew betel nuts, are truly two rare talents.

"food?"

After Reed took the betel nut, he looked at it carefully.

He discovered that this thing should be the fruit of some plant, and it had been processed using a special method, so it looked like it would not go bad even if stored for a long time.

Bubuwang threw a betel nut into his mouth and motioned Reed to chew it.

Reed followed suit, and soon, a strange feeling rushed directly from his mouth to the top of Reed's head.

Even though Reed's crown was stitched shut, he could still feel the coolness.

Moreover, this thing seems to produce a strange chemical reaction with cigarettes.

Lin Yi saw that Reed's exposed brain tissue suddenly became active, and occasionally jumped, which looked very scary.

"Any wine?" Reed asked with a hint of anticipation in his voice.

“Yes, yes, yes.” Lin Yi responded quickly and took out 10 bottles of wine from his personal space, including red, white, beer, fruit wine... a wide variety.

As long as Reed drinks, there will always be a drink that suits Reed's taste.

Reed then picked up a bottle, placed his thumb under the cap, and popped it open with a flick.

He raised the bottle and gulped down half of it. Finally, a hint of red appeared on Reed's face.

"Great, you're a good kid. You made me feel a little alive." Reed's words were filled with satisfaction.

In this dilapidated mausoleum, the long guarding career may have made him forget the taste of life.

[Hint: Mausoleum Guardian Reed's favorability towards the Hunter has increased by 10 points, and the current favorability is 40. ]

"Come on, find a place to sit." Reed waved at Lin Yi, indicating that Lin Yi should find a place to sit.

There was no way, Lin Yi's "combination punch" was too effective, especially for someone like Reed who had been trapped for who knows how long.

Cigarettes, betel nuts and white wine really maxed out Reed's dopamine.

Lin Yi took a look at the red-hot ground around him, and helplessly took out a few special small stools and handed them to Su Xiao and the Seventh Prince.

The two of them didn't mind and just sat down.

"Are you going to enter the temple? No, this is the former temple. Now it can only be regarded as a mausoleum or a prison." Reed, the mausoleum guardian, sat on a low metal pillar beside him. This thing was his chair.

"Did the slaves above allow it?" The slaves mentioned by Reed, the tomb guardian, made people very confused. He looked around at everyone, and after a moment, his eyes stayed on the seventh prince for a long time.

"It seems that the slaves allowed you to enter the temple."

Mausoleum Guardian Reed sighed and looked at Su Xiao with a complicated look.

"You... shouldn't have come here. What on earth do you want to destroy my home? There is nothing related to magic here anymore. You... you... lunatics."

Mausoleum Guardian Reed clasped his hands together, his aura was terrifying, but he gave Su Xiao a very strange feeling, that he was afraid. (End of this chapter)
