The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb!-Chapter 385 - 306: Amber Man

Before we came down, Chen Qinghan instructed Wang Le to keep an eye on Little Red, avoid suddenly attacking it, or making any unnecessary moves, just observe it carefully.

I felt at ease leaving it on the ground, also because of its spontaneous behavior in saving people. Without receiving any instructions to save people, it took the initiative to analyze the current situation, make the judgment to save lives, and put it into action, indicating it has this program itself.

A mechanical creation designed for killing generally would not have a function to save people, like the Eyes of Golden Flame.

But medical-type robots might also have self-protection programs, which is why I held back Mike. For high-tech products without a manual, we should treat them with caution.

Chen Qinghan’s attitude was very clear. He concealed Little Red’s identity and didn’t mention it when confirming the ownership of the footprints, as he didn’t want Mike to know too much.

Of course, it could also be that he feared Mike would act impulsively and do something extreme. Mike entered the Death Zone again, bearing obvious emotional undertones. He was fine before entering, but once inside, he became visibly agitated.

So Chen Qinghan hid it from him, maybe to avoid provoking him, hoping it would be fine, and only revealing the truth if there was a real problem.

Mike frowned in thought, probably still pondering the matter of the ’invisible force’, so he didn’t notice the silent exchange between me and Chen Qinghan.

He wasn’t very surprised to hear that a living corpse had been here. Previously, when the female corpse suddenly disappeared into the water with Doctor Du, I was puzzled. Thinking about it now, she must have returned to this passageway first.

The female corpse knew of this passageway and the stone chamber, and knew it after dying. Could it be that there really is a force here manipulating the living corpse?

Perhaps it’s not just the living corpse, but also the scorpions and... Mike?

At this moment, Chen Qinghan tugged at me: "Say once more how Little Red woke up."

Recalling the scene, I repeated the process.

"Are you sure after it touched you, it had enough time to lie back down without making a sound?" Chen Qinghan asked.

"Well... not sure." I also thought about this, Little Red’s movements were like a normal person who needs to walk to move a position, without performing Qinggong or teleporting abilities, and at that time, I turned around very quickly, in less than a second, so it couldn’t have teleported back into the stone box.

However, in the stone chamber, it was just the two of us, no one else, and its hair changed position. There was no one else to suspect besides it.

Thinking back now, a detail doesn’t match. The entity that secretly tugged on my hand felt different from Little Red’s synthetic skin texture.

Mike knows a bit of Chinese, but as long as our sentences are long and spoken quickly, he doesn’t understand and needs translation.

After conversing with Chen Qinghan for a while, I didn’t provide a translation for Mike, who raised his eyebrows at us, gesturing as if to say he’s still here, don’t ignore him.

Chen Qinghan translated for him, saying he suspected the invisible force here had contacted me, right inside the stone chamber.

Upon hearing this, Mike looked at me and asked, "Did you feel it?"

"It wasn’t a feeling, it pulled me slightly, with a real tactile sensation." I don’t speak foreign languages often, and although my tone was strange, Mike understood. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Is it... a tangible entity? That’s great, as long as it’s a tangible object, bullets can deal with it."

Mike was overly confident with this statement, scratching my face, thinking to myself that bullets are ineffective against me, and I am somewhat tangible!

With renewed confidence, Mike’s steps became more firm and steady. Winding and turning, we walked through the long corridor and arrived at another stone chamber.

This stone chamber could be considered a hall, similar to a hospital outpatient hall.

Mike was stunned for a full three seconds upon seeing the things inside the hall, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

He made a couple of ’uh’ sounds without speaking, so I stopped looking at him and turned my gaze towards the objects in the hall.

The hall was lined with semi-transparent stones. After looking at them, Chen Qinghan said they were amber.

The amber pieces were cut into strips, with each enclosing a person, men, women, young and old, of every type.

The amber was obviously processed, and the people inside had serene expressions, like they were asleep, and their postures were uniform. Even the encasing positions were completely consistent, making it unlikely to form naturally.

Someone placed them into the amber while they were asleep, creating this artificially made ’human amber’.

Seeing these things, Mike became more convinced of his suspicion, believing this was the ’cemetery’ on the outskirts of the Ancient City, a public cemetery, and their burial method was especially extravagant.
