In the dark Passageway, although the temperature did not drop, a cold wind blew that seemed to penetrate the bone marrow.

Lumian, who was in a state of mental relaxation to restore his spirituality, instantly concentrated his attention and observed Tomb Chamber on the left and right as if he were normal.

In fact, his first choice under conditioned reflex was to put one hand in his pocket and hold Mr. K's finger, but he immediately remembered that this was Southern Continent, and Mr. K would most likely not be able to sense that his fingers were being used, so he forcibly restrained his instinctive impulse.

Franca's reaction speed is not slow either. I don't know when he already has a palm-sized Mirror in his hand. Jenna, who has the least experience, doesn't understand what Change represents in a similar scene, but he still intuitively thinks that this is not a good thing.

This is similar to the ghost stories some drunkards in Bar Dance Hall use to scare the girls!

Salent quickly withdrew his gaze from looking at the dim Oil Lamps, without even looking at Lumian, he quickened his pace, passed Jenna and Franca, and walked towards the open Basement Pitch-Black Wooden Door.

Bang bang bang!

There were slapping sounds in the Tomb Chambers on both sides. I don't know whether it was the cover of the Stone Sarcophagus being knocked or the heavy stone door being hit.

Salent's expression changed, he raised his knees and ran outside wildly.

In the originally dead silence of Basement, the sound of banging and banging echoed. Lumian and others followed Boss from the secret medicine store and ran towards the exit, surpassing him in a few steps.

At this moment, the Pitch-Black and Wooden Door made a buzzing sound and closed at an extremely fast speed.

When Franca saw this, he continued to run and threw Mirror in his hand out the door.

With a click, Mirror hit the completely closed Pitch-Black Wooden Door, and the debris scattered on the floor.

Lumian and Franca stopped at the same time and turned to look at Salent. Jenna rushed forward another two meters before waking up and making the same choice.

In the extremely dim Passageway, Salent, wearing a gold-rimmed blue jacket, stood frozen in place with a picture and a book. Pale White's face was dyed a little dark green.

The flapping sound in Tomb Chamber on both sides continues, echoing in the hearts of every living person here.

Salent's body trembled obviously, and he murmured to himself, "It's over, we're all done..."

"What exactly happened?" Franca asked quickly but calmly.

Only by clarifying the essence of the problem can we come up with effective solutions in a short time!

Salent seemed to have lost his soul. He did not answer Franca's question and half-repeated what he had just said:

"It's over, we're dead..."

Before he finished speaking, the whole Basement suddenly shook.

The green lights that had shrunk to the size of rice grains were tilting significantly in the same direction.

Salent looked horrified and his voice involuntarily amplified:

"It's awake! It's awake!"

"Who is it?" Jenna felt that this was scarier than all the ghost stories he had heard before, but he still pressed on and asked.

Salent did not answer her, but still shouted:

"It's awake! It's awake!"

Seeing that Boss from the secret medicine store was obviously in a bad state and seemed to be in extreme panic, Franca decisively gave up the inquiry and took out another Mirror.

She plans to use "Magic Mirror Divination" to quickly determine the current situation.

Even if the answer obtained by Divination is not clear enough and needs interpretation, it is still better than knowing nothing at all!

Soon, Franca finished reciting Incantation, and Waterlight appeared on the mirror.

She was just waiting to organize her words, ask appropriate questions, and request corresponding answers, when Lumian, who was standing silently next to her, suddenly spoke:

"Did it succeed?"

"Successful, OK Divination." Although Franca was confused, he still answered very cooperatively.

Lumian suddenly smiled:

"You don't have to ask questions."

Uh... Franca was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Lumian wanted to do.

At this time, Basement was shaking obviously again. Boss Salent from the secret medicine store was so frightened that his voice became shrill:

"It's coming! It's coming!

"We're going to die!"

The next second, Lumian pinched his shoulder.

At the same time, Lumian's other hand grasped Jenna's arm, and Franca hooked his shoulder in a brotherly gesture.

The dim light from the gaps in the clothes flashed, and the four people appeared outside Basement, and appeared in front of Pitch-Black Wooden Door with many Mysticism symbols outlined.

"It's coming! It's coming!

"We're going to die!"

Salent is still screaming at Despair.

Lumian looked at Boss from the secret medicine store and seriously thought about whether to use "Face of Niser" and pretend to be Mummy to scare him.

Stimulation therapy is also therapy!

Considering that he had very little spirituality left, and there was no need to expose too many abilities in front of such a stranger, Lumian finally gave up on the prank plan.

Snap!

Jenna swung his right palm and slapped Salent on the face. He was stunned for a moment and looked at Lady in front of him blankly.

Franca and Lumian were both a little surprised and looked at this scene silently, not knowing how to participate.

Pitch-Black Wooden Door and Basement As the walls shook slightly, the scene outside suddenly became quiet.

Jenna felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by all the looks, and muttered, "Isn't this how we all wake up?

"My neighbor was in a state of Loss of Control, and this is how he woke up."

This is not really crazy. People in the Factory area have their own empirical solutions, which work most of the time, but fail in a few cases.

Of course, if it was her own relative, she would definitely not be able to do it and would have to ask others to help.

"Well done." Franca came back to his senses and praised sincerely.

After a few seconds, Salent's eyes gradually became clear.

He instinctively looked around and blurted out in shock. "Are we out?

"When did we come out?"

"When you shouted 'We are going to die' and 'We are going to die'." Lumian replied in a tone that didn't deserve a beating.

Then, he raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice, "Who did you say is going to wake up just now?"

After Salent's expression changed a few times, he pursed his lips and said, "A True Ancient Mummy."

"It Slumber is on the bottom floor of Tomb Chamber. It wakes up occasionally. It just woke up a few days ago. How could it wake up again so quickly..."

Under normal circumstances, there is a general range of time for Mummy to "wake up". According to Salent's experience, it will have to be at least another month before it wakes up next time, so it dared to bring Lumian and others into Basement.

Who knew something unexpected would happen!

What factors made the ancient Mummy wake up early? Lumian cast his eyes thoughtfully on Franca, as if asking you whether you should consider True Ancient Mummy.

Franca understood what he meant and shook his head to express that it was not necessary.

Mummy Ashes is just Auxiliary Ingredient, Last Year can also be used, there is no need to risk dealing with the dangerous looking Monster.

Lumian withdrew his gaze, endured the pain in his head, looked at Salent, smiled and said, "I don't care whether it's Mummy from Last Year or Mummy from ancient times who wakes up, I only know two things;

"One, I saved you, and two, we were frightened and almost died inside.

"So, you need to give me a thank you gift and mental compensation. How much do you think you should give? Remember, I only want gold."

Thinking that he still owed Armored Wraith and Mr. "The Fool" a total of 100,000 Felkine in gold, Lumian didn't want to miss any opportunity to save money.

After seeing Pitch-Black Wooden Door, the movement gradually subsided. Salent relaxed and took a breath and said, "How about 1000 Felkine? I only have so much gold here."

He was a little distressed about the loss of money, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with what Lumian said. If it weren't for them, he would have died in Basement and become the food of Mummy.

Moreover, the other party has shown considerable strength, and rejecting it on the spot means that the risk is very high.

"Yes." Lumian doesn't want to beg or squeeze anything.

As the four of them walked towards the stairs leading to the warehouse, Franca lowered his left hand and let something slide silently into the shadow of the corner.

After getting Gold Coin, gold nuggets and gold jewelry worth 1000 Felkine, Lumian, Franca and Jenna walked out of the "Highland Secret Potions" store.

"Tsk, after struggling for a while, not only did I get Mummy's severed hand, but I also got an extra 500 Felkine." Franca looked back at the store and sighed in a funny way.

Without waiting for Lumian to respond, she asked with a smile, "Are you short of money again? In the past, you definitely didn't care about getting paid for saving people, whether they liked it or not."

"Have you transferred to 'Spectator'Pathway?" Lumian teased and nodded sincerely, "The special Contract I am talking about requires a sacrifice of gold worth 100,000 Felkine within a period of time afterwards."

100,000 Felkine? After really entering Mysticism World, Jenna was refreshed his view of money again and again.

As far as she knows, Charles currently owns more Cash than she does, and such a person dares to owe 100,000 Felkine just for a Contract that can use special abilities.

Franca clicked his tongue again and asked, "Why didn't you just drag us 'Teleportation' out of the door from the beginning? At that time, Basement's door was not closed yet, so there wouldn't be any accidents."

"Don't you think it's cool to take action at the last moment?" Lumian asked the question without answering.

Of course, the real reason is that he has just acquired the ability "Spirit World Traversal" and has not developed the habit of using it subconsciously. When Pitch-Black Wooden Door of Basement is turned off, he is afraid that the last "Teleportation" will fail, so he does not dare to try it rashly.

Later, Franca completed "Magic Mirror Divination", which confirmed that he could also connect to the outside world within that seal, so he made a decisive decision.

Amid the disbelieving voices of Franca and Jenna, Lumian rubbed Cavern's hole in his head that throbbed from time to time and said, "Find a hotel. I want to take a nap and restore my spirituality."

"Okay." Franca did not rush to find the hotel, but turned into a deserted alley and took out the exquisite Vanity Mirror.

"What do you want Divination?" Jenna asked curiously.

Franca's mouth corners curled up:

"Divination The picture of my other side Mirror."

Seeing Jenna puzzled, she smiled and added, "I just threw a little Mirror that looked like pieces outside that Basement."

After saying that, Franca stroked the mirror and recited Incantation.

Not long after, Mirror showed a scene:

Boss Salent, a secret medicine shop wearing a gold-rimmed blue jacket, stood in front of Pitch-Black Wooden Door, bending his back and shouting in a low voice:

"Only death lasts forever!"
