Chapter 260： Moyu's Knife

Chapter 260 Moyu's Knife

A snake-like black psychic force surrounds a humanoid statue with a pair of bat wings.

The expressions of Ryan, Baibo, and Mantis moved slightly.

Before entering the temple, Baibo was asked to use the "circle" to detect the situation inside, but he did not find the existence of this black thought force.

And after the three of them entered the temple, when they saw the humanoid statue for the first time, they didn't see the black thought power either.

Afterwards, they focused on the piles of gold coins, maybe just two or three eyes, and the black thought power appeared out of thin air.

This sudden strange phenomenon made the three of Ryan secretly vigilant.

In the past operations of the Elimo Bandit Group, not only theft or robbery, but also occasionally choose to attack large relics or tombs.

When there are too many similar actions, it is inevitable that you will see thoughts of death once or twice in tombs or ruins.

It can be compared to the thoughts after death lingering on the humanoid statues, and the thoughts after death that manipulate many armor and human head-embracing statues outside...

The thoughts after death they have seen are not worth mentioning at all.

Between the two, there is no level of existence at all.

Both Baibo and Mantis looked at Ryan.

Their team, no matter what the situation, has always been led by Ryan.

As long as it is Ryan's decision, they have nothing to say, and they have absolute trust in Ryan.

"That crown must be taken."

Ryan only thought for a moment before making a decision.

To say that the most valuable item in the entire temple must be the pure gold crown inlaid with seven-color gemstones worn on the top of the statue.

Such a magnificent object with strong historical blessings, if placed in an auction, will inevitably make the group of top rich people who love such objects flock to it, and even go crazy.

so-

They may not take away all the gold coins in the temple, but they must take the most valuable crown.

Even if there are thoughts of the afterlife on the crown, it is not hesitating.

"Boss, I'll get it."

Seeing Ryan make a decision, Mantis volunteered.

Many times, the unknown represents danger.

No one knows what will happen if you approach or touch the statue.

But in this case, one person must take the risk.

"Fuck off."

Lian raised his hand and pushed Mantis away, and said angrily: "I'm an enhancement department, so I can only do the things that lead to the front. Which round will you worry about?"

"..."

Mantis was speechless.

Baibo glanced at Mantis, did not speak, but was always vigilant about his surroundings.

Whether it is the weird and ugly giant pillar outside, or the thoughts of the afterlife that suddenly appeared in the temple, they are all potential threats to be vigilant against.

Lian released the maximum thought power, raised his head slightly, and carefully looked at the pure gold crown on the top of the statue.

This crown...

Made with the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient times, it not only carries seven rare gemstones of different colors, but also carries the most fascinating and rich history.

It is undoubtedly a peerless treasure!

"Must get it!"

Lian's eyes flashed greed, and he strode towards the statue curled up on the stone pillar.

It seems to be because of his actions, or some other reason.

The snake-like afterlife thoughts lingering on the statue are gradually getting stronger and thicker.

When Mantis and Baibo saw this, their eyes changed. When they subconsciously opened their mouths to remind, they saw Ryan waved his hand and then slowly closed their mouths.

"It seems to be a passive-aggressive afterlife."

Ryan came to the gold coin hill, squinting at the growing thought of the afterlife on the statue.

He thought that it was his approach that caused the change in this after-death thought, and thus concluded that this after-death thought was a passive-aggressive judgment.

"I don't care what your background is and what you can do..."

Lian was shrouded in a strong mental energy field, grinning with a wild smile.

"The crown belongs to me!"

Before the words fell, Ryan jumped up, like an eagle spreading its wings, quickly passed the statue haunted by the thoughts of the afterlife, and then reached out to take the pure gold crown on the top of the statue's head.

From Ryan jumping up, to reaching for the pure gold crown.

The whole process came to an end, and the afterlife thought on the statue didn't move at all.

"Don't fight back?"

Lyanton, who was mentally prepared in advance, felt a surprise, landed steadily from mid-air, and immediately looked at the back of the statue.

The other direction.

Baibo and Mantis also looked surprised.

Already prepared to deal with emergencies at any time, the afterthought on the statue did not respond.

"Don't let your guard down."

Lian took the pure gold crown, walked around the hill of gold coins, and slowly returned to Baibo and Mantis.

Under their gaze, the afterlife thoughts on the statue are gradually getting stronger at a slow speed.

Apart from this, there are no other changes.

"Is it enough to get the crown?"

Baibo looked at the pile of gold coins beside the stone pillar, and at the gorgeous crown in Ryan's hand.

Out of caution, he thought that as long as he got the crown, which was called a peerless treasure, it would be fine, and there was no need to continue to take unknown risks.

Mantis heard the words, did not speak, just looked at Ryan quietly.

In fact, he also felt that it was enough to get the crown.

It's not because he is timid, but there is always a strange atmosphere in this dungeon ruins that cannot be described in words.

Facing the gazes of Baibo and Mantis, Ryan was silent, and looked down at the beautiful crown that was not dusty in his hand.

That's it for now...

What a pity!

Ryan doesn't think that there is only a pure golden light and a pile of gold coins in the huge ruins city, there must be many rare treasures that have never seen the light of day.

"Not enough."

Thinking of this, Ryan shook his head.

"Passing by Baoshan to take only one crown? This is not our style, Baibo, Mantis."

"..."

Baibo and Mantis looked at each other.

That's right.

Not letting go of any treasure with high value is their style of acting as a member of the Elimo Thief Group.

"Anyway, I listen to the boss."

"I have no objection."

The two are still based on Ryan's decision.

Lian grinned when he saw this, and threw the pure gold crown to Baibo.

"!!"

Bybo was startled, and quickly reached out to catch the pure gold crown thrown by Ryan.

"Hey, can this thing be thrown around like this?"

Catching the pure gold crown, Baibo stared at Ryan with wide eyes.

Ryan said indifferently: "I know you can catch it."

As he spoke, he walked up to the hill of gold coins, picked up a large handful of gold coins with his fan-like palm, and immediately hit them with a crisp and pleasant sound.

"bag."

Picking up a large handful of gold coins, Ryan looked back at Mantis.

Mantis held the double knives with one hand, and with the other hand, he pulled out the snakeskin bag on his back waist, and then threw it over.

Ryan caught the snakeskin bag, stuffed a lot of gold coins in his hand, and soon filled the snakeskin bag to bulge.

Despite this, the gold coins piled up next to the stone pillar did not seem to decrease at all.

"Look elsewhere."

Holding the snakeskin bag full of gold coins in his hand, Ryan is looking forward to the next search operation.

Baibo and Mantis glanced at the snakeskin bag in Ryan's hand, both a little excited.

It is said that it will not open for half a year, but it will take three years after opening.

But this opening, enough for them to eat for ten lifetimes!

Just when they were so excited about this, there was a sudden noise from the statue.

Hearing the movement, the three of Ryan, who had never let down their vigilance, all looked at the statue for the first time.

Crack, click—

Under their vigilant gaze, cracks began to appear on the surface of the statue curled up on the stone pillar.

And the black thought power lingering on it seeped in along the cracks like running water, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Um!?"

Seeing this weird scene, Ryan, Baibo, and Mantis instantly entered a fighting state.

Crack, click—

In just a few seconds, the cracks on the statue suddenly became as dense as spider webs.

Immediately afterwards, pieces of stone fell off the statue and fell into the pile of gold, revealing a pale body inside and a pair of pure black bat wings covering most of the body.

This is not a statue, but an unknown creature sealed by a layer of stone shell!

Lian, Baibo, and Mantis were shocked, and they all backed away, opening the distance for the first time.

The body of the unidentified creature whose stone shell had been removed moved slightly, and the pure black wings that covered most of the body also slowly unfolded.

"Withdraw!"

Lian's pupils shrank, and he turned decisively and ran towards the open stone gate of the temple.

Faced with such a situation that cannot be explained by common sense, running away is always the best choice.

Baibo and Mantis were shocked, and they also ran towards the open stone gate quickly.

In order to cover the evacuation of his companions, Ryan deliberately slowed down and fell behind Baibo and Mantis.

Such a move should be something that the strengthening department should do.

soon-

The three of Ryan hurried through the stone gate and came outside the temple.

Not far away, the knights who had come nearby stood on the top of a building, and suddenly saw Ryan and the others running out of the temple.

"Oh?"

Looking at the Qi flowing on the three of Ryan and the others, a look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the knight.

He didn't remember that there were these three people with the ability to read among the candidates.

"It's well hidden."

Surprised, the knight guessed that the other party should let the qi drain naturally, so as to cover up the identity of the person with the ability.

"The crown..."

Didn't pay too much attention to this matter, the knight quickly noticed the pure gold crown full of presence in Bybo's hand.

good stuff!

Xia Ke's eyes lit up.

Even if the Phantom Troupe looted countless treasures, it was still hard to compare with the pure gold crown.

The psychic who came nearby was not only the knight, but also five other psychic candidates, as well as Mo You and Men Qi who had just arrived.

All the ability users who were present at the scene inevitably noticed the pure gold crown in Bybo's hand that shone with colorful luster.

Seeing the pure gold crown, Moyou and Menqi couldn't hide their surprise.

The other five candidates who had the ability to read could not help showing greedy expressions.

No professional appreciating knowledge was needed at all, they could tell at a glance that the solid gold crown was a rare treasure of unimaginably high value.

Grab it!

Suddenly, except for Moyou and Men Qi, other mind-power users present, including the knight, all had the idea of ​​snatching the pure gold crown.

at the same time.

In the hall of the temple.

The unidentified creature curled up on the stone pillar spread its wings, exposing its naked body that was no different from a human being.

It's just that the skin color on the body is too pale to see any blood, and there is no hair on the head.

"..."

The unknown creature slowly stood up straight, and opened a pair of pure black eyes with no pupils and whites.

"No matter how the years change, the greedy nature of human beings...is always the same."

Looking at the open door with obsidian-like eyes, the unknown creature spread its wings on its back, and with just a slight flap, the airflow rolled up out of thin air supported his body and slowly fell to the ground.

This unknown creature that resurrected without warning from the stone statue actually came from the Dark Continent thousands of years ago.

Mammon is his name.

After thousands of years, he was resurrected from the stone shell.

to be frank-

Mammon himself was surprised.

Because from the moment he turned into stone, he had actually accepted death.

But just when his "wick" was about to go out, the greedy desire from human beings turned into a crucial fuel, making his soul rekindle like a raging fire at this moment.

Ryan's speculation just now was wrong.

The afterlife on the statue is not getting stronger because of his approach, but because of…

The aroused greedy desire in their hearts.

Actually.

From the moment Moyu perceives the thoughts of the afterlife, the resurrection of Mammon is inevitable.

To say why...

It is Moyuna's unique particularity that has become the most important key that can open this door.

Under this premise, Ryan and the others who were sent into the gate, as well as many candidates who participated in the hunter test, provided Mammon with the final resurrection energy while coveting the baby.

Everything has become a fact.

Mammon stared at the open stone door.

Although he can't see the outside situation, he can accept the endless greedy desires from afar.

Gradually, Mammon could feel the friction between the bones and the blood flowing in the blood vessels.

"Compared to the Dark Continent, this land really allows me to 'survive' better."

The indistinguishable neutral voice with a little emotion echoed in the hall of the temple.

Just as Mammon gradually regained the familiarity of his body, disputes inevitably arose outside the temple.

In order to **** the valuable pure gold crown, the five candidates who came nearby attacked Ryan and the others without hesitation.

Even the knight, with a smile on his face, holds the antenna that "carries the fate of others" between his fingers.

Without any interweaving of words, the fierce battle in the field just started.

This unexpected development...

It surprised Moyou and Men Qi.

Before the two of them stood still, they saw a man with a combed back and a double knife in his hand staring at them with cold killing intent.

More precisely—

is staring at Moyou.

There is no particular reason.

Just because Moyou had a long knife on his waist.
