Chapter 357: Fake tomb

"Under this magic circle?"Alex looked down at the enormous magic circle beneath her feet, pondering whether to take the risk.

The two necromancers' meaning was clear: there was no need to expose herself for a fake tomb.

But this contradicted Torin's actions of hiding his healing place here. At least from the current situation, this Torin was still quite sentimental.

"It doesn't matter. It's just a fake tomb. Since I'm here, I have to see what's going on."

Alex quickly made up her mind. At worst, she would just waste an undead fortress. Although she couldn't defeat these angels, it was still easy for her to escape.

Besides, there was only a risk of exposure, not a guarantee.

The space inside the cave wasn't large, so it wasn't possible to directly build the undead fortress hidden inside. However, Alex mastered all undead magic, so she could easily see the core of this magic circle.

Alex stomped her right foot forcefully. Black energy burst out from it, directly shattering the foundation of the formation beneath her feet. With a loud bang, the entire cave began to shake, and dust filled the air.

Alex and the two necromancers landed steadily on the ground, looking around.

"This magic circle is actually hollow underneath?"

The two necromancers only knew that the fake tomb was located under the magic circle. This was their first time here, so like Alex, they were surprised and observed their surroundings.

As the dust settled, Alex's gaze first locked onto the center of the space.

There was a circular platform in the middle, like an altar, with a stone tablet placed on top. There was something written on it, but Alex couldn't see it clearly.

The most striking thing was that there was a black spear stuck on top of the stone tablet, which was particularly conspicuous.

"Is this the weapon of the previous Undead Lord?"

Alex's doubtful echo echoed through the pitch-black, empty cave.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Our former emperor's weapon was indeed a spear," the two necromancers said respectfully from behind Alex.

Alex took off her large black hood, revealing her beautiful long white hair. She walked slowly towards the center of the cave and stepped onto the altar.

The first thing she did was reach out and grab the spear, but then she shook her head with a wry smile.

What am I thinking? This is just a fake tomb. How could it possibly hold the weapon of the previous Undead Lord?

This black spear wasn't a weapon at all, but was integrated with the stone tablet, completely carved out of stone.

Since it was just a decoration, Alex didn't bother to pay attention to it and looked down at the inscription on the stone tablet.

It was only then that Alex saw the information on it with confusion. It was very simple, only a few short words.

Tomb of ____.

ϺƲ∟ΞᎷƤႸᏒ.СӨМ

Alex was startled. The name in the middle was blank, meaning that the name of the previous Undead Lord had been deliberately erased.

"Is this the power of the god's taboo?"

This power was truly terrifying, able to directly erase all traces of a person's existence.

It was likely that no one except those who had interacted with the previous Undead Lord would know about him.

Indeed, without even a name, even if someone found it, they wouldn't know it was the tomb of the previous Undead Lord.

Alex looked at the tombstone, her heart unmoved. She just wiped the dust off the tombstone with her hand.

Since Alex was the new Undead Lord, it was only right to pay her respects to the former Undead Lord.

The two necromancers behind her silently watched Alex pay homage to their former emperor without saying anything. Then Alex stood silently in front of the tomb for a long time.

After a long while, Alex seemed to have thought of something. She squatted down, the six-pointed star magic circle in her right eye flashed with white light, and she reached out to touch the tombstone.

Since this fake tomb was built by the first Lord for the previous Undead Lord, there might be some spatial sealing on it. Her spatial magic originated from the same source as his, so maybe it would trigger some special reaction?

Of course, Alex was just giving it a try. The main reason was that she wanted to know if the first Lord had left any important information here.

The moment her hand, wrapped in spatial power, touched the tombstone, the tombstone suddenly shattered into pieces.

Alex was a little embarrassed. Not to mention whether she was overthinking it and had to try this, she was the first person to destroy the tombstone right after paying homage.

But it was a fake tomb anyway. It was fine if it was destroyed. The dead should be allowed to rest in peace forever, and Alex would become his successor in the future, even surpassing him and completing what he had not finished.

Alex stood up, ready to turn and leave. This place was too dangerous. It was better to return to the Undead Empire as soon as possible.

But at this moment, a black mist suddenly emerged from the ruined tombstone and flew straight towards her.

Seeing the black mist suddenly attacking her, Alex was shocked. She immediately released her aura and touched the bracelet with her right hand. A huge black sickle slashed straight at it.

The sickle had the ability to cut through everything. No matter what form the enemy was in, as long as it was touched by the sickle, it would die!

But before the sickle could touch the black mist, something unexpected happened. The black mist suddenly expanded, as if the sun had been switched off. The surroundings instantly became pitch black. Even with her enhanced vision, Alex couldn't see anything.

There was nothing but emptiness around her. She couldn't see her hand in front of her face. There was no difference between opening her eyes and closing them. At this moment, Alex had completely lost her sight and was in a completely unfamiliar space.

But Alex didn't panic. Instead, she was very calm, and there was even a hint of a smile on her lips.

She had indeed sensed it just now. This power made the Source of Fear somewhat excited, and at the same time, it resonated with her own spatial magic. Alex was not trapped here. As long as she wanted, she could leave this space at any time.

She had guessed correctly. There were indeed clues left by the first Lord here!

The two necromancers in the cave saw Alex suddenly disappear from the tombstone and their expressions changed drastically. They thought that something had happened to their Queen and hurriedly went to the fake tomb to check, but they found nothing after checking.

Because only Alex saw the black mist that had just surged out, the two necromancers didn't see anything.
