"I'd been here this long, and I'd never even seen any of this stuff..."
Su Ming was amazed.
He strolled over.
With the mindset of a tourist, he admired this lost civilization up close.
As everyone knew,
underground palaces had mechanisms.
Yet Su Ming ignored every deadly trap.

Before him, they were no more than a breeze brushing a cliff, letting him stroll straight through.
"With this being hell difficulty even for an archaeological team, a tomb raider could handle it with ease...

The strange weapons in their hands pointed directly at this "intruder."
Clearly, they regarded him as an enemy and wanted nothing more than to kill him.
Su Ming remained as calm as an ancient well, even finding it a little boring.

Sure enough, although this underground palace looked magnificent, its budget seemed to have all gone
