Chapter 387 So, what is the price?

There are many questions in his mind, but they cannot be answered by guessing alone. Dawn held his breath and began to browse the next mural content——

"Earl Wenfeng has searched for the way of eternal life for a long time, but it has been fruitless.

This is an area that cannot be touched by his little power in the world.

After so many years, a wizard wandering around the world came to the foot of Qima Snow Mountain.

The wizard found the earl and offered the secret of eternal life.

[Eternal life comes at a price, though. ]

The wizard said so.

[So, at what cost? ]

asked the count.

At the end of the story, the wizard made a deal with the earl.

The earl obtained the immortality he dreamed of for the rest of his life.

So, at what cost? "

The content of the mural ends here.

The last painting depicts a scribbled stone tower.

It should be the original body of the collapsed building above the underground palace where Dorn and Vivienne are currently, which is the original complete appearance of Earl Wenfeng's mausoleum.

Moreover, the marked text on it ends with the last question "So, what is the price?"

Seeing the end of the story on the mural, Donne had the urge to swear:

"Hey! Can this painter tell a story? After the conversation between the wizard and the earl, did he omit a large part of the important plot!"

"Also, what does this ending mean? Leave it here for an open ending, so that readers can leave endless room for imagination?!"

Dawn protested strongly in his heart, then turned his head, his gaze randomly fell on the fourth-to-last mural before the end.

The content of the mural is about the first time Earl Wenfeng received the wandering wizard who brought the secret of eternal life.

In the picture——

The villain in a tall hat sits on a high chair, looking tall.

And under the steps, stood another villain, that is, the wandering wizard.

Wearing a hooded robe with a bird on his shoulder.

Because the murals are too abstract, the birds on the wizard's shoulders cannot be distinguished. But the bird that the wandering wizard brought was probably either an owl or a crow.

In short, although this wandering wizard is drawn simply, the image in just a few strokes is very suitable for the appearance of a wizard who has mastered mysterious power.

After glancing at the painting, Donne looked away.

There seems to be no way to get more information on the murals.

At this time, Miss Goblin at the side also finished reading the story on the wall, she blinked her lake-blue eyes, and said with a little doubt: "Dorn... the story in this painting is different from what Grandma Ailian told .”

"It's really different."

"Well—the mural says that Earl Winfon finally gained eternal life after paying a certain price. But since he is already an immortal, what is going on with this tomb?"

Vivian continued to express her confusion.

However, Dawn was not clear about this question either, and he was equally puzzled.

So, he just shook his head: "We have to go deep into the passage to get some more information. If there is a tomb at the end of here..."

...

Holding the light ball of [Illumination], Dawn led Vivienne to continue exploring the passage.

The stale, rotten smell seemed to be a little stronger.

After walking out for a while, the field of vision under the light became wider, and at the end of the passage was a room with stone walls.

"This should be Earl Wenfeng's tomb."

With this in mind, Donne expanded the light of the [Illumination Technique] in his hand, illuminating the entire room.

It does look like a tomb here, and the structure is very simple.

In a square room, there is nothing around, and no funerary objects can be seen.

In the center of the tomb there is a small platform with steps, on which there is a sarcophagus that looks very bulky without any carvings.

After entering the tomb, Don opened the system email again.

"The opening point of [Concerto Forest] is indeed here." After comparing the map, he finally came to such a conclusion.

After looking around, Donne turned his gaze back to the most conspicuous sarcophagus.

After collecting so much information about Wen Feng's cemetery intentionally or unintentionally, he was very curious about what was inside the sarcophagus.

"Want to take a look?" Vivienne on the side seemed to understand what Dawn was thinking, and asked aloud.

"Well, let's see." Don was not hypocritical or shy, "The so-called secret of eternal life may be under this sarcophagus."

The two walked up to the small platform.

After looking around the sarcophagus for a while, they worked together to lift the coffin lid.

The sarcophagus is very heavy.

However, under Miss Fairy's petite figure, she possesses unimaginable power. In addition, Dawn also used the [Wrist and Foot] skill, and a few more tentacles grew to assist him.

The extremely heavy sarcophagus was quickly pushed open a gap.

Then, there was a strong, disgusting rotten smell overflowing from that tiny gap!

The strong rancid smell was unbearable, Dawn and Vivian let go of their hands at the same time, and took a few steps back.

Miss Goblin even put wind shields on the two of them, not to resist any damage, but just to keep the stench away from them.

"Maybe we should wait until the stench in the sarcophagus dissipates a bit..." Dorn said.

However, he stopped mid-sentence.

Because he heard a very strange small sound coming from the sarcophagus with a gap open.

"Ho...ho..."

It seems that there is a person who is breathing hard and weakly.

This panting sound is very depressing and disturbing. It was as if the person who made the sound had a lot of iron sand in his throat.

In addition, there is rubbing sound.

crunch--

The sound, like fingernails struggling to slide smooth stones, is uncomfortable.

Dawn looked surprised, and Vivienne next to him had a similar expression. Obviously, Miss Goblin also heard the noise inside the sarcophagus.

"Ho...ho..."

crunch--

The noise in the coffin continued.

This tiny sound sounded particularly harsh in the empty tomb.

After being silent for a while, Dawn opened his mouth in astonishment, and said something he couldn't believe: "The person in the sarcophagus is still alive?"

The murals he saw in the passage outside flashed back in his mind.

Especially the interrogative sentence at the end of the note——

So, at what cost?

"Ho...ho..."

crunch--

The noise in the sarcophagus continued.

Then the sound of breathing like swallowing iron sand intensified. There was a hoarse, numb, painful voice that seemed to have passed through thousands of years, and it was difficult to resound in the silent tomb:

"I want to die……"

The man in the sarcophagus spoke.
