Looking at the sea of fire in front of him, Aaron suddenly felt that his previous preparations were somewhat redundant.
At the same time, he also felt that the high-sequence Beyonders in the Arbiter path are indeed worthy of being the strongest auxiliary. The role they can play in combination with other high-sequence strongmen is far more than a simple statement of one plus one is greater than two.
He couldn't help but think of the effects of the combination skills he had practiced for a long time. It turned out that diversified development is the shortcut to becoming stronger.
While Aaron was thinking, the fire in the stone door had gone out. Everyone waited for a while to allow air to circulate to prevent lack of oxygen after entering.
Aaron walked in the middle and passed through the stone gate. He saw piles of ashes and charred fragments on the ground. It was impossible to tell what kind of monsters had been active here, nor could he guess what the functions of the mechanisms that had been set up here were.
Although there is no luxurious method like the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery to use extraordinary consumables to "clean the floor", the effect of the two demigods personally joining forces to clean up the situation will only be more significant.
In the following process, the previous scene was repeated, and the group advanced smoothly, exploring one area after another, and occasionally harvesting some Beyonder Characteristics that fell to the ground.
Aaron counted them and found that they were just some Sequence 9 Beyonder Characteristics. Some of them could only be considered Beyonder Materials, but they were in large quantities, and the overall value was close to 20,000 pounds.
As the main tomb chamber came into view, Aaron's spiritual awareness suddenly moved, and a strange feeling emerged. This was due to the extra sensitivity of the "Sheriff" at the extraordinary level, which enabled him to detect abnormal factors and grasp subtle clues.
Aaron immediately turned his head and looked behind him. The one black-clad team member who was originally walking close to the wall on the right side suddenly became two. Aaron's pupils shrank slightly, and he was about to speak out a reminder.
But someone obviously reacted faster. Joseph Weil, who was at the end of the team, had a glow on his body like the morning sun. He raised his hand and pointed at one of the black-clad team members, saying indifferently, "Death."
Aaron felt a wave spreading from under Joseph Weil's feet. He heard a shrill cry, and the figure of the team member who was originally standing shattered into a pale skin with burn marks on the surface.
Rays of light shone from under the human skin, just like the light of the rising sun! The human skin immediately became translucent, shattered into brilliant light, and countless ashes fell.
They all shimmered, slowly began to gather, and finally formed a huge diamond with countless cross-sections reflecting light, and a different face was reflected on each surface.
Those faces are so densely packed and layered that it makes people dizzy. This is the extraordinary characteristic of the human skin shadow.
Aaron's eyes lit up, and he walked forward to pick up the extraordinary characteristic and put it into the iron box he carried with him.
Joseph Weil also came forward from the back of the team, glanced at Aaron, and without saying anything walked to the front of the team and stood side by side with Reinhart Will.
The two demigods frowned and searched for a while outside the main tomb chamber, but could not find the mural depicting the deeds of Amon's family. So everyone had to gather again and walk towards the corridor leading to the main tomb chamber.
At the end of the corridor of the main tomb chamber, the gate that may have existed originally disappeared, and the ground was covered with debris burned by flames.
Another diamond-shaped Beyonder that reflected a human face lay quietly at the bottom of the right wall, complementing the other two glowing objects.
The entire corridor, including the walls on both sides and the stone slabs on the top, showed signs of burning.
On the wall opposite the entrance to the corridor, there are four deep pits as big as bowls, from which green smoke is still emitting.
Aaron took a look at the several Beyonder ingredients on the ground and guessed that it might be that the four flaming spears just now had penetrated directly through here, destroying the door at the end of the corridor and several Beyonder creatures at the same time.
However, no one went to pick up the Beyonder ingredients at this time, and everyone's eyes were focused on an item on the side.
It is a picture frame hanging about seven or eight meters in front. It is brown in color with obvious wood texture. There is a layer of transparent glass on the surface of the frame and there is no picture inside.
"This is the ghost frame. As long as you walk into its range and are reflected inside it, your spirit will instantly be separated from the flesh and blood and become a portrait, sealed inside it forever." Reinhardt Weil turned his head and said to the crowd.
Joseph Weil at his side took a step forward, his body glowing like the morning sun, his eyes glowing with golden light, and he spoke slowly: "Mystery weakens, reality strengthens."
A wave enveloped the picture frame. At the same time, Reinhardt Weil, with red flames lingering all over his body, walked forward towards the picture frame.
A figure surrounded by flames also appears in the frame, but the mirror surface is like a constantly splashing water surface, the figure is always blurred and cannot be truly presented.
Reinhardt Weil stopped, took out a large piece of almost opaque black cloth that he had prepared long ago, and covered the "ghost frame" with it.
The picture frame trembled several times, and was finally completely covered by the black cloth and returned to calm.
Aaron took the "ghost frame" covered by the black cloth, and recalled the scene just now, feeling a little confused.
Now that there is a frame, where did the painting that was supposed to be there go? Is this an incomplete seal?
There was no time to think further, the team continued to move forward and walked towards the entrance of the main tomb chamber at the end of the corridor.
There was a black stone door with patterns that looked like they were cut by knives and axes, and a gray-white disc was inlaid in the middle.
The surface of the disk is divided into twelve grids, with a black pointer, just like a clock in the outside world.
However, the grids were not evenly distributed on the disk. Some were large and some were small, which was extremely inconsistent. Moreover, half of each grid was covered with shadows.
Reinhardt Weil walked forward and pushed open the stone door, revealing an extremely spacious tomb chamber.
There is a high platform in the center of the tomb chamber, on which is placed a dark black coffin.
There were iron lamp stands on the walls all around, holding up white candles that were still burning quietly.
All the candle flames were not flickering, and it was so quiet that it seemed like a frozen picture, with no signs of having been washed away by a thousand or two thousand years.
In the straight line from the stone gate to the coffin, there are three corpses lying. Judging from their clothes, they look a bit like the popular clothing in Loen more than two hundred years ago.
Their Beyonder Characteristics have long been revealed, and the spiritual fluctuations they emit are at least at the Sequence 6 level.
After all, without a High-Sequence leading the team, the Low-Sequence Beyonders would not be able to pass the checkpoint in front of the mausoleum, and they were still holding their weapons tightly in their hands.
The three bodies all had sparse white hair, dry and wrinkled skin, and obvious spots, like old men in their 80s or 90s. There were no obvious wounds on their bodies, and it seemed that they had died of old age.
Aaron and the two demigods all turned their eyes to the black coffin on the platform and an upside-down picture frame at the bottom of the platform.
Reinhardt Weil raised his right hand, pressed it down and said, "Stop here."
Joseph Weil let out a light breath and took a bronze talisman from Reinhardt Weil. The red and silver-white lines on it emitted strong spiritual fluctuations.
Joseph Weil, who didn't know what was in the black coffin on the platform, simply weakened the mystery and enhanced the law of reality over the upside-down picture frame at the bottom of the platform.
There seemed to be a breeze blowing inside the closed mausoleum, and the candles on the iron lampstands began to sway.
