Chapter 992: The Grim Reaper Likes to Drop Gold Coins?
..
Camela immediately walked around the stone pillar.
Then, she made a red mark on a third of the stone pillar:
" Right here. Go straight in, about eighteen inches away.
"Can your Turn Stone into Mud cover that area?"
Lorraine made a relaxed gesture.
"Don't talk about eighteen inches!
"Even if it's twenty-eight inches, I can do it!"
As he spoke, he took out the piccolo from his waist and placed it by his lips.
Matthew was much more relaxed when he saw this.
Lorraine said it casually, but he did not slack off because of it. Instead, he was quite serious.
Bards could cast spells in many ways.
However, only the spells cast by the best instruments were the strongest.
Since Lorraine had taken out the piccolo, it meant that he would give it his all.
Beep toot!
Sure enough, cheerful music sounded, and light blue musical notes accurately hit Camela's mark.
Under the effect of the music and magic power.
The originally sturdy surface of the stone pillar suddenly crumpled like a pond.
Ripples spread out from the centre of the mark.
Drip, drip, drip.
The stones in the surrounding area had already turned into liquid and were dripping down very slowly.
However, with Lorraine's hard work.
The mud fell down for some distance and then shot up in an extremely abnormal manner, forming arcs in the air. In a short period of time, the mud and the stone pillars formed a stable, sealed area.
"Hurry up."
Lorraine urged them vaguely.
Matthew looked at Camela, who suddenly walked away quickly.
"Go get it.
"I just discovered an item over there that has a vast ancient aura. I need to check it out."
Matthew watched her leave.
A moment later, he saw that Camela had indeed grabbed something from the pile of treasures. Then, she walked to the side and stared at the thing in a daze.
Matthew's expression was a little strange.
Because if he was not mistaken, the thing that Camela casually took was gold... Spittoons.
It was obvious.
The so-called ancient aura was just an excuse. She just needed some private time.
It was just that the thing that she saw was able to make Camela feel a little lost.
Matthew couldn't help but feel even more curious about what she saw.
However, the other party was unwilling to say anything, so Matthew naturally could not ask for more.
He glanced at the banshee beside him.
Brianta's condition was worse than Camela's. Perhaps the brainwashing spell was too strong, but she was now lying on the ground with her eyes rolled back and drool hanging from the corner of her mouth.
"I hope she can recover!"
Matthew composed himself. Under Lorraine's urging gaze, he quickly walked to the side of the melted stone pillar.
This stone pillar had been solidified by magic before, so it was impossible to use the Wall Phasing Spell or the Earthwalking Spell to enter.
Matthew tried to use the Hand of Magic in the mud.
However, just as he reached in, he felt a strong resistance. There was an endless pressure around him, and the Mage's Hand was squeezed out!
Puchi!
Matthew shook his weak Hand of Magic.
"Too soft! Use force!"
Lorraine grimaced.
Matthew reached out his right hand, but as soon as he put it in, he immediately pulled it out!
There was no other reason.
The Hand of Equalization contained a large amount of life force and negative energy. This energy field was too powerful. Once it entered, it would severely compress the mud. If it was forced in, it was very likely that Lorraine's spell would fail, and the entire stone pillar would be destroyed!
In this case…
The underground palace would fall into the astral plane, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.
"I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to retrieve something from the mud…"
Matthew muttered to himself as he cast his third spell.
Astrid's Claw!
In the next second.
The soft tentacles pierced into the mud silently, digging in extremely smoothly.
Just one poke, and it was at least ten inches deep!
"This works!"
Matthew's eyes lit up. He immediately controlled Astrid's claw to continue moving forward. Not long after, it touched something hard!
And at the moment of contact.
Matthew felt a burning pain!
He gritted his teeth and immediately wrapped his two tentacles around it.
The pain began to intensify.
Matthew didn't dawdle. He endured the immense pain and pulled hard.
Pa la la!
Mud splashed all over him.
Astrid's claw seemed to have been burned by some kind of power. There were originally four tentacles, but now there were only two left.
On the ground in front of Matthew.
There was also an oval-shaped item wrapped in mud.
Matthew bent down to examine the item. It was arched in shape, with a slightly raised tip and smooth sides, like a hemisphere with many small lumps.
There was a crack on the top of the item, and there were sharp projections on both sides of the crack, like a pair of fine antennae. There were countless spiral stripes on the antennae, giving off a mysterious feeling.
"Is this the Evil Crown?"
Lorraine also came over.
Matthew cancelled Astrid's Claw, but he could still feel a sharp pain in his left hand from time to time.
He knew that the source of the pain and burns was this item.
" The Evil Crown's attribute is actually Justice!
" And it's extreme justice, masculinity, and passion!"
Matthew pinched the fingers of his left hand and then switched his right hand to the Healing Hand. Only then was he barely able to pick up the scalding crown.
" Therefore, the name of the item is very likely to be a trap. Whether it's the rumours during the inheritance or the smears in the future, many times, when you analyze the name of an item based on experience, it's very likely that you will come up with a completely wrong estimate."
