Chapter 330: Chapter 324, Lame and Lai Gou l

The skeleton warrior swaggered out.

No danger or surprises occurred.

If the guardian of the demon room in the well last time was a mud monster, then the guardian of this room should be the shape-shifter monster we just met.

It could be said that the characteristics of the shape-shifter monster are even more dangerous than the mud monster.

It can take on the appearance of a companion, disrupting your thinking.

Just imagine, your trusted partner being your enemy, what a terrifying thing that would be.

That shape-shifter monster just now must have heard someone shouting Fang Hao’s name and mistaken the black sword for Fang Hao.

It was thus easily exposed by everyone.

Seeing the skeleton warrior come out smoothly with the treasure chest, without triggering any danger or mechanisms.

Fang Hao flapped his wings and flew into the room.

Last time, he obtained pages from the Book of Demon in the demon’s room. He wondered if he would find any this time.

He carefully searched all the objects in the room.

Apart from some rusted metallic utensils in his eyes, there were no valuable items.

Nor did he find pages from the Book of Demon.

“Let’s go, leave here.” Fang Hao flew back to the shoulder of a skeleton warrior.

Upon receiving the command, all the skeletons left the cave.

Outside the cave.

Everyone was waiting. When they saw Fang Hao return, Anjia asked, “What’s the situation below? Did you find any good stuff?”

“Just a simple stone room, I’ve brought everything that can be taken out.” Fang Hao looked at the treasure chest next to him.

“Should I go in and search it again? You’re not very observant,” Anjia said, somewhat unsure.

“You’re joking, there’s nothing to search. Arrange for people to collect stones to block the entrance.” Fang Hao directly ordered.

The demon’s room always gave off an ominous and eerie feel.

Evenif Anjia wasn’t afraid, Fang Hao didn’t want her to godown there.

“Oh, alright.” Anjia waved at several skeletons and began to collect rocks to block the cave entrance completely.

Fang Hao continued to fly to Grey Bear’s team.

“Grey Bear, when did we first meet?” Fang Hao asked.

Gray Bear was taken aback, failing to grasp Fang Hao’s meaning.

But he still replied, “Lord, are you referring to when my men and I ambushed your business caravan? I was misled by the mercenaries of the Ironblood Corps and didn’t mean to make a move on you.”

“Indeed, Grey Bear, gather your men, interrogate them one by one with Black

Sword, to prevent any remaining shape-shifter monster.”

Although Fang Hao thought that there was only one monster guarding the demon stone chamber, he couldn’t be entirely sure there wasn’t a second one.

The shape-shifter monster could imitate human appearance, but luckily it could not read the memories of the person it was imitating.

As long as he individually questioned them, he could easily identify it.

“Understood, Lord.” Grey Bear finally understood Fang Hao’s intention- to confirm his identity.

He immediately gathered all his subordinates, interrogating them one-on-one.

In a camp, there were only so many people.

It was like a small village, everyone was familiar with each other and could easily find out if there were any outsiders.

About half an hour later.

The cave was completely blocked, and everyone on Gray Bear’s side had been interrogated without any issues arising.

“Alright, let’s set off and head for the bandit’s camp. The sooner we finish, the sooner everybody can rest.” Fang Hao ordered again.

The large group once again set off towards the second map location, the “Bandit Camp”.

At 3:20 p.m.

In front of a low cave on the outskirts of Lyss City.

“Leader Lai Gou, this is the cave where I always seem to find gems. You promised me that if I found this place, you would erase my debt,” a limping man told the muscular man in front of him.

Lai Gou looked into the cave seriously. The cave was pitch black, with visibility covering only one or two meters.

“Enough with the nonsense, is there any danger inside?” Lai Gou cursed and asked the man to get to the point.

“I don’t know, I only picked a one or two near the cave entrance. I was afraid of danger, so I never dared to go in.” The limping man’s voice trembled.

Lai Gou glared at him. He was really a waste. They hadn’t even entered, and he was already scared to this extent.

Many people were aware of his knack for finding gems.

If anyone else could do the same, they would have been rich by now. Who would live like him!

“Prepare the torches,” Lai Gou said.

The junior behind him ignited a torch and handed it to Lai Gou.

The light of the fire flickered, reflecting on the cave walls, resembling a shape­shifting beast.

“Go in, you lead the way,” Lai Gou picked up the limping man and threw him in front of the cave.

The limping man’s face became ghastlier, with beads of sweat popping out on his forehead.

“Lai Gou, yo-you promised, I only need to lead you to the cave entrance…”

Lai Gou kicked the limping man into the cave. “Speak again, and even your current good leg will be broken.”

A few people entered the cave, lighting up its cavernous belly with the glow of their torches.

As they ventured deeper, an oppressive atmosphere gripped the group, making them all nervous.

“La-Lai Gou, you’ll stick to your word about the gem, right?” The limping man took small steps forward, speaking in trembling tones.

“Shut up,” Lai Gou scolded.

If there were any monsters in here, speaking would draw their attention.

“B-but I’m scared. You know me, as long as I talk I won’t be so afraid,” the limping man said in a whining and shaking voice.

“Shut your mouth.”

“Look, there is a gem over there,” the limping man suddenly exclaimed.

Two meters ahead of them on the ground, in the middle, lay a ruby the size of a little finger.

The expressions of Lai Gou and his men instantly lit up. There really were gems here.

They were going to be rich.

Lai Gou picked up the gem, wiped it with his clothes, and checked it was indeed a gem before joyfully putting it into his pocket.

“Keep moving forward. Fellas, we are going to be rich,” Lai Gou whispered, urging them to move forward.

They reached the end of the cave, where there was a wide-open space.

The open space was very flat and clean.

There were no beasts as they had imagined, no bodies or animal bones.

Nor were there any piles of gems.

There was nothing, just a normal cave.

“What happened? Where are the gems?” Lai Gou turned around and found that the limping man was standing far away, trying to extinguish the torch in his hand.

“What are you doing? Get him back here,” Lai Gou said.

Seeing Lai Gou’s men walking towards him, the limping man hurriedly extinguished the torch, yelling anxiously, “I led them here. You can come out now. Please, come out.”

Hearing the limping man’s cry, Lai Gou and his men instantly got nervous.

At this time, they also realized that they had fallen into a trap and been deliberately led here.

They pulled out the weapons at their waists and prepared for battle.

But the open space was just so big, where could any other people be hiding?

A few breaths later, nothing had happened yet.

Lai Gou chuckled, “It seems that your partner isn’t following the plan, huh?”

Whoosh!

He had barely finished speaking when a sound came from behind him, the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh.

He quickly turned around and saw that the man holding the torch in their team had been slashed across the neck.

He slowly fell onto the ground.

At this moment, everyone saw the enemy, a woman with a slim figure.
