Chapter 245: Don’t Worry, Your Highness
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“General Shen, you guys stay here and resist the wax figures. I’ll go deeper and investigate.” Huo Junhan sensed and realized that the strength of these revived wax figures was comparable to before. There were many of them, but every wax figure wasn’t strong. As long as Mao Qi and Shen Liu’an cooperated, they could completely deal with them.
Mao Qi and Shen Liu’an had already worked together to defeat a few wax figures.
Mao Qi’s sharp nails were sharper than a wild beast’s. He raised his hand and attacked the wax figures, who fell to the ground one by one. Then, Shen Liu’an stabbed them and cut their bodies off. They struggled weakly on the ground like maggots.
An arrow pierced through the head of the wax man under his feet. Shen Liu’an took the time to look at Huo Junhan. “Your Highness, don’t worry. Leave this to us!”
Huo Junhan nodded indifferently. He tapped his toes on the ground and flew out at a low altitude. Soon, he widened the distance and went straight into the depths of the cave.
Far away from where the wax men were, the deeper they went into the cave, the thicker the strange aura in the air.
In the dark cave, there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes hiding in the dark. They were like vicious poisonous snakes that could pounce at any moment.
“Ji ji ji—!” As Huo Junhan arrived at the depths of the cave, some strange monsters crawled out from the cracks in the rocks on the mountain wall.
They had all kinds of shapes. There were centipedes with human eyes crawling on the ground, and rats with human faces chirping.
Until Huo Junhan came over, the rats turned to look at him. The black-haired man’s face was filled with a silly and crazy smile.
Huo Junhan snapped his fingers expressionlessly as he watched the poisonous snake with tumors all over its body swing its tail and pounce on him. A flame pierced through the poisonous snake’s head and burned it to ashes.
The burning smell and fishy smell retracted in the air. Veins that looked like vines gradually appeared on the ground. These veins were dark in color, and many of them were rooted into the mountain walls on both sides, as if they had already fused with the entire mountain.
Huo Junhan looked straight ahead and followed the sinister path to the depths of the cave.
The originally narrow path suddenly opened up, and a huge cave appeared in front of Huo Junhan.
There was a huge floating stone platform in the cave that was as huge as a plaza. It was supported by vines that covered the entire stone platform. One end of the vines was wrapped around the plaza, and the other end was deep into the surrounding mountain wall, which was filled with cracks. As a support point, the thick vines could successfully propel the entire stone platform into the air.
Vines wrapped around the stone platform, perfectly covering the entire surface of the stone platform. One could vaguely see the pulse and beat of the vines like a heart. At a glance, it wasn’t obvious, but it was like a living creature.
A strange atmosphere filled the air. Huo Junhan expressionlessly looked at the four corners of the stone platform.
There were four towering pillars at the four corners of the north, south, east, and west. The pillars seemed to be condensed from crystals, forming a cylindrical container. At a glance, they were all dried corpses of children.
These dried corpses had accumulated over time and were already shriveled and black. They all maintained the posture of their curled limbs when they were in the mother’s body. They looked like they had been forcefully dug out of the mother’s body. Before they could be born, they were stuffed into the pillar.
Huo Junhan took a closer look and found something wrong with the children’s dried corpses..
