Chapter 142 Five Heroes of the Ancient Tomb, and the Opposing Jiang Shaoxu
"So what exactly happened?" Su Ming pressed.
There were flat houses all around, but two stood out. You could tell at a glance that these two houses were special. If this were a game, these two houses would be the BOSS rooms.
He met many people along the way, and everyone was very enthusiastic. Newcomers don't need to be resistant because there's no benefit in doing so.
"How should I put it?" Mu Bai hesitated for a moment before saying, "To put it in my understanding, this place was created by someone, and now it has two masters who call themselves Prison Masters, and we also call them Prison Masters. The two Prison Masters control this place and possess extraordinary power. We cannot defeat the Prison Masters here."
Then there's the difference in time here compared to outside. I can clearly feel that three years have passed, but only a few days should have passed outside.
Su Ming nodded. The ancient tomb had only been out for a short time, so saying a few days was not a problem at all.
The two jailers like to organize all sorts of competitions when they have nothing to do. Our magicians here are divided into two groups, one for each jailer, and we are the participants. Our responsibility is to win the competitions. There are rewards for winning and punishments for losing. But we won't die here. At least I haven't heard of anyone dying yet. Everyone is in high spirits," Mu Bai said.
Although this place doesn't feel very good, it's still good that they won't die, and there will be someone to treat them.
Su Ming:
"Lock, that sounds weird."
"So, have you found any clues to get out?" Su Ming asked.
"I'm not entirely sure about that right now. A few people have been investigating, but I don't know if there's been any progress," Mu Bai said.
"Did you see the scene beneath your feet when you came in?"
"The view under my feet? When I came in, it was pitch black all around. It was stable enough, but it was useless. I couldn't see anything, and I just ended up here in a daze." Mu Bai shrugged, somewhat helplessly.
He wanted to find a way to leave, but he couldn't, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Mu Bai led Su Ming deeper into the tomb. The sky here was the same as outside, with day and night alternating. If they didn't know that this was an ancient tomb, they would really think they were somewhere else.
"Brother Tian, I've brought the person." Mu Bai led Su Ming into a room where several people were sitting.
They were all quite old, and Su Ming didn't recognize any of them. However, it seemed that these were the people Mu Bai had mentioned who were investigating the method of leaving.
He has a very strong presence; he's clearly not someone special.
"This is Jiang Shaotian, from the military region, and he's now considered our leader," Mu Bai introduced.
Su Ming nodded. Jiang Shaotian, that must be Jiang Shaoxu's older brother. He just didn't know if Jiang Shaoxu was here; he hadn't seen him at all.
Mu Bai said there are two factions here, so it's very likely that they are fighting against each other.
Mu Bai pointed to another person dressed rather flamboyantly and said, "This is the legendary ancestor, a super-level mage."
"Nice to meet you."
Zu Chuan looked Su Ming up and down, then nodded, which was considered his approval.
Mu Bai then began to introduce these people one by one.
There are five in total: Jiang Shaotian, Zu Chuanshuo, Boss Wu, Brother Tang, and Xu Sheng. Boss Wu was originally on the opposing side, but he came here because they lost the big competition.
"Mu Bai, take him to rest. There are new people coming in, and I bet the two prison bosses will have something new to do," Jiang Shaotian said.
During their two and a half years there, they roughly analyzed the characteristics of the two bosses in doing things. Although some of their methods were absurd, they could still find some patterns.
They are intelligent beings, and it's impossible for them to be completely nonsensical. As long as they are intelligent, they must have habits!
There are many empty houses here, and Mu Bai found one for Su Ming that is not far from his house.
The interior was structured the same as his house, except for a stone bed and nothing else.
"Su Ming, when you sleep here at night, lock all the doors and windows. There's a pervert here, so be careful or you might get hurt," Mu Bai warned.
Su Ming:
"It's really not safe," Su Ming shuddered, casually tossing out a few plant seeds. The plants began to grow rapidly, quickly blocking the doorway.
The windows were also blocked off. Su Ming looked at Mu Bai and asked, "Is this all you need?"
"Yeah, as long as something blocks the view, it's fine. That person is a pervert, but he's still law-abiding. He won't go into places with doors," Mu Bai said.
"Alright, you should rest first. I was quite tired when I first arrived. We'll talk about how to leave after tomorrow," Mu Bai said, and then left. They would always discuss this matter whenever a new person arrived, since everyone's sense of time was slightly different. Although the sense of time was chaotic in the dark, they could clearly sense from their conversation that the time taken to emerge was different, and the length of time spent in the dark varied.
This could very well be the clue to leaving. Su Ming lay on the bed. The stone bed was a bit hard, so he used plant seeds to spread a layer on top. Although it was still hard, he could adjust the angle of the plants according to his own ideas, making it more comfortable to sleep on.
Su Ming squinted, not sleeping. He was tired, but couldn't fall asleep, probably due to anxiety.
After all, I had just arrived in a new place. I was tired, but I really couldn't fall asleep.
I need to tell them about the scene I encountered on my way here tomorrow. Since entering this place, the fire element in Su Ming's mind has calmed down.
Perhaps the real him is underground, and this place is just an illusion?
If that's the case, then the illusion is too real. Not to mention him, even those high-level mages couldn't detect anything amiss.
This is even more bizarre than Helan Mountain. At least there, they know what will happen. Even if it's a spatial distortion, those high-level mages can quickly discover it and make a judgment.
This place is different. Even high-level mages are like headless flies, flying around aimlessly and unable to find their way.
Moreover, judging from their words, the two prison guards here are exceptionally powerful. After all, even super-level mages can only participate in the competitions they set up. If they didn't have the strength, they would have been killed long ago, so it's impossible for them to give them orders.
He couldn't think of anything now, there were no clues in his mind. It was a monk, so he simply entered the spiritual world and entered a meditative state.
The stardust from the light and water systems that just started is the smallest, almost invisible, with only seven stars flying around randomly.
Su Ming tried it out and found it wasn't too difficult to control. He had previous experience, and as a space-type Su Ming, he could release a basic magic spell with a single thought. This made controlling the star particles very smooth for him, and he quickly mastered the water and light star particles.
