Heroes' Prison-Chapter 129: Underground Palace
Huang Yi looked at the posts related to Dragon City again. In recent days, Dragon City has continuously been one of the focal points of the world’s attention.
Currently, the Undead Army still hadn’t retreated, and the entire Dragon City was on the verge of collapse, with the lives of a million players hanging by a thread. However, led by several high-level players, Dragon City finally formed a temporary combat headquarters last night, and began to fight the Undead Army outside the city in an organized manner, quickly transforming from disarray into a united front.
When Huang Yi saw the screenshot of the leader of this headquarters, he was momentarily stunned. This leader, it turned out to be Number 9, Qin Shiyu!
Although she was wearing a mask, those clear eyes were something Huang Yi would never forget. They grew up together, and those eyes had looked at him countless times. Just one glimpse of those beautiful eyes, and Huang Yi knew they belonged to Qin Shiyu.
Qin Shiyu currently ranked just over 100th in the level rankings of the China Region. Although she couldn’t compare with players like Dao Feng and Dragon Spike, being a female player and achieving such results was no small feat. Amidst the million players in Dragon City, her level was the highest. Moreover, with her decisive and swift actions, as soon as she became the leader, she immediately led the million players of Dragon City to a splendid victory, stabilizing the city’s dire circumstances last night.
However, today, the leader of the Skeleton Army, General Guifu Heilang, had already issued the order to attack, unleashing the leader’s aura, and the countless Skeleton Army was amplified, speeding up the siege. After all, Dragon City was weak and unable to contend against the massive Skeleton Army. The situation that had just stabilized began to crumble again. After nightfall tonight, the Skeleton Army’s strength would further increase, and it was predicted that at that time, Dragon City would be breached! A million players would be slaughtered!
Huang Yi was somewhat worried and didn’t know whether Qin Shiyu could survive this ordeal tonight. Given the current circumstances, it seemed nearly impossible for her to escape Dragon City. But now, Huang Yi had no good way to help her, and all he could do was to leave it to her own fortune.
Next, Huang Yi returned to The Second World, continuing his search for the secrets of the Sand Thief King.
Huang Yi continued along the unsearched area, inch by inch, and he had already searched through almost half of the Dandelion Oasis. Results were expected within the day!
...
Five hours passed, and the sun had risen to its highest point. The scorching sun caused Huang Yi to sweat profusely as he diligently continued his search, gradually reaching a thickly dotted area with dandelions.
Suddenly, he felt ever so slight a difference!
This area was a tad cooler than the others, a very small difference of approximately half a degree Celsius. Most people wouldn’t notice such a minor discrepancy, but Huang Yi was on high alert, his senses at their sharpest, and he immediately noticed the difference.
Huang Yi stopped and carefully observed this small area. It was so tiny—about the size of a manhole cover—in the vast Dandelion Oasis, it would have been easily overlooked if not for the slight temperature difference.
Huang Yi took out a long spear from his storage ring and plunged it into that small area.
The spear gradually penetrated the soil and met no obstruction as if there was nothing beneath. Huang Yi, unwilling to give up, continued to thrust the spear deeper.
The spear was three meters long, and it was when Huang Yi had driven it two and a half meters deep that he couldn’t push it any further—he had hit something hard below!
There definitely was an issue! Huang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, his half day of searching finally yielding results.
He stepped back a few paces and took out three "Mud Explosion Technique" scrolls from his storage ring, unleashing them on that small area!
After being bombarded by the three scrolls, the area was blasted into a deep pit, revealing the object below!
Displayed before Huang Yi’s eyes was a well cover buried more than two meters underground. It was unclear what it sealed off, but it emitted a mysterious aura that made one want to lift it and reveal what lay beneath.
Huang Yi immediately jumped into the pit and strenuously moved the well cover aside.
The instant the cover was moved, a bone-chilling cold aura surged skyward! A vast area around instantly froze into ice, and a thin layer of ice crystals formed on Huang Yi’s skin. The sunlight hitting his body lost all its warmth as if winter had suddenly arrived!
Just a breath of air was this formidable; the concentration of Ice Element here was incredibly intense!
Huang Yi flexed his muscles to restore mobility to his frozen body and peeked into the well.
At that moment, the well was covered with frost, and a faint mist of ice rose from below, vaguely revealing an underground palace that concealed unknown things!
Taking a deep breath, Huang Yi jumped down, entering the mysterious underground palace.
As soon as he entered the underground palace, Huang Yi felt icy cold to the bone, as if even his blood had frozen. He turned his head to look around; the palace was incredibly expansive, stretching farther than the eye could see, shrouded in darkness, uncertain how many years it had been sealed in ice.
[System Prompt]: You have discovered the Sand Thief Tomb. Experience Points +10000.
The Sand Thief Tomb! This place was indeed related to the Sand Thief King!
Huang Yi gripped the massive Split Hammer and walked deeper into the tomb, where a great secret awaited him.
After about two hundred meters, Huang Yi took a turn, and suddenly a large hall appeared in front of him. This hall was filled with countless soldiers frozen in ice, holding long spears, perfectly aligned, dense and orderly, like an army. The scene reminded Huang Yi of the Terracotta Army of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum, almost identical to it. However, this army before him was frozen, making it even more astonishing and vast, stretching beyond his line of sight. He seemed incredibly small in front of this army. If it marched over him, he would undoubtedly be crushed into a mound of flesh.
"There’s a living person here!" Quickly, the ice melted off a nearby soldier, who fixated on Huang Yi and spoke with a human voice!
As his voice fell, countless soldiers in the hall thawed, all resurrecting and rolling toward Huang Yi with their long spears!
Holding the Split Hammer, Huang Yi charged at the closest soldier and brought the hammer down hard!
"Boom!" That soldier immediately shattered into pieces!
With that attack, Huang Yi also learned the level and strength of these soldiers. They were at the same level as him and not very strong. He could instakill them with his hammer; no matter how many soldiers there were, they were merely delivering Experience Points to him.
