This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1211 - 543: Opening the Coffin_3

The Stone Coffin indeed possessed a bewitching ability, and its effect was excessively potent. Merely a few seconds of eye contact had directly taken control over his Game Character.

"Time flows backward, you return to ten seconds ago."

"You are staring into the Stone Coffin, a sense of confusion subtly rising. Sensing something amiss, you hastily force your gaze away..."

Mu You looked around; the other humans showed no signs of abnormalities. It seemed that this enchantment was likely only effective on Vampires.

"At this moment in the stands, the elder had already begun the ’Coffin Opening Ceremony’."

"Ten or so laborers, each holding several meters long crowbars, take turns inserting them into several notches along the edge of the Stone Coffin, the other ends of the crowbars connected to a metal device resembling a jack."

"The workers grasp the handle of the device, simultaneously beginning to exert force. However, despite the collective effort of more than a dozen people, the lid of the Stone Coffin didn’t budge in the slightest."

"Put your backs into it! No slacking! As long as you can open the Stone Coffin, I promise, everyone’s pay for tonight is doubled!" The elder, seeing no progress in opening the coffin, spoke irritably.

Motivated by the promise of money, a tremendous strength suddenly surged through the laborers’ bodies. Veins popping, they twisted the handles with all their might.

With the workers’ desperate efforts, finally, the Stone Coffin let out a thunderous sound as a barely perceptible gap was pried open between its lid and base.

The nearest automated camera had already focused in time, preparing to capture the scene inside the hall. All the spectators below were holding their breath, waiting for the outcome to be revealed.

However, before the image could clear, a strange black mist spurted out from the crevice of the Stone Coffin.

Like a living entity, the black mist rapidly spread across the platform, quickly engulfing the dozen or so laborers.

Screaming in agony amid the swirling mist, the workers seemed to be devoured by some primordial beast, struggling violently within the black air...

After several seconds, the wails abruptly ceased, and the black mist, now tinged with blood, retreated swiftly, carrying away the blood from the bodies of the laborers. It disappeared into the crevice of the Stone Coffin in the blink of an eye, leaving behind only a dozen emaciated mummies.

All returned to silence once more.

After a brief silence on the scene, the first scream suddenly erupted, followed by a wave of screams and cries. Tourists frantically trampled over each other to flee, desperately seeking to leave this perilous place.

"Quick, don’t stop, all of you, continue opening the coffin!" On the stand, the elder, ecstatic over the supernatural spectacle, urgently urged the surrounding bodyguards to take over from the laborers and continue with the opening.

However, having witnessed the eerie occurrence up close, who would dare approach and court death? The bodyguards dropped the elder and fled the stands without looking back.

"Stop! Come back!" The elder shouted in anger, but it was futile.

The elder could only curse as he hurried toward the device, trying to crank it with his feeble strength.

"Bang!" A gunshot suddenly rang out, the elder’s back oozing blood, as he fell to the ground, clutching at the bullet hole in his chest.

You turn to look; the shooter was a man in the second level of the spectator stands.

The moment the man revealed himself, you distinctly felt a formidable aura emanating from him: This was at least a third-generation Vampire!

Sure enough, a Vampire had appeared. And to show up in broad daylight was akin to blatantly disregarding the iron law of seclusion.

The moment the man fired his gun, soldiers hidden all around the hall raised their weapons and opened fire on the man!

In an instant, countless silver bullets danced through the hall, but all the bullets that hit the man only produced a series of crisp sounds, rebounding off him.

With a crazed expression and braving the storm of bullets, the man leaped from the stands. Moving at a speed indiscernible to the naked eye, he charged straight toward the Stone Coffin.

Watching the man nearing the Stone Coffin, do you intervene to stop him?

"No!"

Mu You didn’t rush to act. He believed that other Vampires were eagerly awaiting their chance to capture the Stone Coffin. Emerging now could make him an easy target, possibly shot dead amidst the chaos.

"Ha ha, the Coffin of Cain is mine!" the man laughed loudly as he arrived in front of the coffin, his ’Herculean strength’ activated, he struck the lid of the Stone Coffin with his palm.

"Bam!" The Stone Coffin was knocked askew, revealing another small gap.

However, as the man quickly followed up, attempting to deliver another blow, one of the closed eyes of the Stone Sculpture beside the coffin suddenly opened.

The instant the eyeball opened, the man’s movements froze, as if turned to stone.

The eyeball scrutinized the man before it, sweeping up and down. Then, a voice full of resentment came from within the coffin: "All creatures from the City of Enoch deserve to die!"

Along with the voice’s decline, the man was engulfed by the black mist pouring out of the coffin, and in the blink of an eye, he was shriveled into a husk, death leaving his eyes wide open...

The black smoke dissipated, and the Stone Coffin returned to tranquility once again...
