The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

: Murals

Luo Sa held the piece of cloth in his hand and continued to walk deep into the mausoleum.

“Why did a shroud fall on the ground? This passage should be far away from the coffin chamber…could it be the former tomb robber… No, what are the tomb robbers doing to move the corpse? It’s worthless…” Luo Sa hesitated, Still holding the shroud in the palm of his hand, he continued to move forward.

“The female leader of the Sand Pirates said that there is some kind of sacred object hidden in this tomb… I don’t know if it is true or not.” Luo Sa was a little excited. The cross-blade “Charikar” is a magical weapon.

According to Setaka, it was the day when she succeeded in ascension. Under the sun at noon, an incandescent meteor fell on the palace, just in front of Setaka, and became Setaka’s weapon. One of the many legendary stories, known as “the gift of the sun” in history.

This incident directly made Setaka, who had just succeeded to the throne, famous, and quickly captured the hearts of the sun-worshiping Shurima. If it weren’t for the crossblade, a weapon that requires skill, which is too difficult to master, perhaps most of Shurima would This weapon became popular.

Of course, Luo Sa knew the truth.

In fact, Chalikar was brought to Setaka by Maiisha, and the legendary meteor was Maiisha who descended to earth.

However, Chalikar is indeed a gift from the giant god Kim Jil-ling to Setaka. It is just given to her by the messenger of the gods, Twilight Protoss. flames.

It’s impossible to say that Luo Sa doesn’t envy Setaka’s Charikar. If he can also have a magic weapon, it will be much more convenient for him to do everything in the future.

The mausoleum is deeper than Luo Sa’s thought. Fortunately, we have not seen a fork in the road, nor encountered any traps.

“The female Sand Pirate said that her father died many of his men in order to explore this tomb…Why?” Luo Sa didn’t see a single expected skeleton along the way. This seemed to be an ordinary passage, nothing to worry about. special.

But when Luo Thirty went deeper, he saw something different.

The walls and floor of the passage turned into obsidian. Even Luo Sa could recognize this stone, because many places in Setaka’s palace were built with this kind of stone, and the bed in Setaka’s bedroom was made of obsidian.

Obsidian can make the surrounding air warmer at night and cooler at daytime, but it is a stone that can only be used by the royal family. Even the Ascended Palace cannot use obsidian.

“Why is obsidian, which can only be used by the royal family, here?” Luo Sa touched the wall. The unique touch was undoubtedly obsidian. “Could it be an imperial tomb?”

This idea was quickly rejected by Luo Sa. He had been to the secret passage under the palace and knew that the tombs of Shurima emperors were secretly built in places that no one knew, and all the workers who participated in the construction had to be buried with them. Only members of the royal family know the location of their father’s tombs. The labyrinth-like complex secret passages under the palace lead to each imperial tomb.

But here is the Dasai Desert. It’s so far away from the imperial city. Even if the royal family of Shurima didn’t want their tomb to be discovered, they wouldn’t be able to build it so far away. It is easy to be found by tomb robbers.

Luo Sa didn’t come to a conclusion. Fortunately, obsidian is extremely strong and will not corrode over time. The relief murals engraved on it are still clearly visible. Luo Sa carefully looked at the murals by the light of the torch.

The murals are densely engraved with pictures and words. Although Luo Sa can read and write, the Shurima characters on the wall seem to be written in a font and grammar that was very long ago. Luo Sa can understand it in front of him individually, but when connected together Read it without knowing what it means.

“It would be great if Maiisha came in with me, she will definitely recognize it.” Luo Sa shook her head and finally gave up on deciphering the text and started looking at the pictures.

There are many pictures, like all Shurima murals, the content is very complex, densely packed with villains.

Luo Sa continued to move forward. He had seen many murals like this in the Setaka Palace, so he knew two points of knowledge.

First, in this kind of mural, the bigger the person, the higher the status.

Second, usually the most important content will be placed in the center or at the end of the mural.

The mural in front of Luo Sa’s eyes was obviously an unimportant part. He was still careful of traps and poisons all the way forward, but his caution was superfluous, and nothing dangerous happened.

Luo Sa walked for a while, and finally saw that the people on the mural had grown significantly bigger.

“Is this…an official?” Luo Sa saw that those who were one size bigger were wearing official uniforms, which were slightly different from the current Shurima official uniforms, but they could still be seen.

Then, Luo Sa saw many bigger people.

A man with the head of a beast.

“The Ascended…” Luo Sa swallowed his saliva. Before the mural was finished, the Ascended had already appeared, which meant that there were people who were more respected than the Ascended.

Finally, Luo Sa came to the end of the passage, and the tomb was in front of him.

Luo Sa didn’t rush into the tomb, but looked at the murals at the end of the passage.

A little boy—bigger than the Ascendant in the painting, but clearly a child from head to body——He is wearing a crown, sitting with his legs crossed on the sun disc, kneeling below his servants, and some envoys in exotic costumes. treasure chest.

It’s not that Luo Sa has never seen such a scene. On the day of the queen’s celebration, Setaka also accepted the coming of all nations in the same way, and the ascended people and the people knelt at her feet.

Luo Sa can now confirm that this tomb is an imperial tomb, and the owner of the tomb is the little boy in the mural who is obviously from the royal family of Shurima.

“I won’t dig up the grave of Setaka’s ancestors…Will she be angry if she finds out…Who knows that there is a royal tomb of Shurima in the Dasai Desert…” Luo Sao smiled wryly Shaking his head, he slowly walked into the tomb.

The tomb is not that big, but it looks a bit crumbling as a royal family’s mausoleum.

Luo Sa observed the tomb, but did not see where the coffin was. Instead, there were a lot of funeral objects, all kinds of gold vessels, gem ornaments, and solemn ritual vessels, many of which exuded the aura of magic. Taking one is priceless.

But none of them have as strong aura as Setaka’s Chalikar, not even one percent of it.

Luo Sa observed the tomb room, but still couldn’t find any possible mechanisms: “This tomb is so strange that people with a little money will install mechanisms to prevent tomb thieves in their tombs. This is the imperial tomb…”

Luo Sa discovered that there were still obsidian murals on the four walls of the tomb.

He raised the torch and looked at the mural.

The little prince appeared again in the mural, this time he stepped off the sun disc, walked among his own people, and behind him was the ascendant who followed him. All the civilians had their heads firmly attached to the ground, bathed in The crown on the little prince’s head shines like the sun.

“Little prince…” Luo Sa read in a low voice. This little boy reminded him of a story he had heard before, “Impossible…”

Luo Sa continued to walk forward and looked at the last obsidian mural.

The little prince died.

He was lying on the coffin with his arms crossed on his chest and his legs stretched straight. Those near him were weeping, while those far away were cheering.

The content of this mural is very confusing. The little prince is dead, but some are happy and some are sad. So is this prince loved or cast aside?

Luo Sa wanted to go deeper. There seemed to be another room behind the tomb. Luo Sa wondered if there was the “sacred object” mentioned by the female sand bandit leader.

The fire on the torch in Luo Sa’s hand suddenly flickered violently.

“Strange, there is no wind.” Luo Sa held the fire in his hand, but the fire was still flickering like crazy.

“This mausoleum is so strange…” Luo Sao felt an ominous feeling in his heart, but when he thought that there might be a holy object in front of him, he still gritted his teeth and walked deeper.

Luo Sa just took a step, but found that his right leg seemed to be entangled by something.

Luo Sa looked down and saw that it was a gray-green long cloth tightly wrapped around his calf.

It was exactly the same as the shroud Luo Sa picked up not long ago.

The cloth stretched all the way into the darkness, and at the other end of the darkness, it seemed that something was pulling the cloth, preventing Luo Sa from going any further.

Luo Sa stared at the darkness, the dim light of the torch could not penetrate the darkness, and the air was terribly quiet.

Luo Sa heard the sound of sobbing on the other side of the darkness, and then the sound of splashing water.

Water from no one knows where it came from poured into the tomb, covering Luo Sa’s ankles at an extremely fast speed. Luo Sa smelled the bitter and salty smell of the water, like sea water, but this is the Dasai Desert, where did it come from nearby? seawater

“Who are you!” Luo Sa loudly asked, he had to speak first, because he found that he couldn’t get rid of the weird shroud, and the water had already covered his chest, if he didn’t stop himself, he would drown up.

The sobbing became louder and louder. In the darkness, a childish, fearful and trembling voice came intermittently——

“Are you…willing…to be…my…friend?”

There was a little boy who just wanted to find friends.

He kept crying, kept crying, and could never find a friend.
