Chapter 538 True Pain
Chapter 538 True Pain
The General and a few screamed to themselves, refusing to abide by whatever whispers were now plaguing them. Son of a bitch! What sort of evil was this? Everyone was plagued with the matter, except the disciples and… wouldn\'t you know it, Harvey and Ashaku. No matter what voice bellowed, it won\'t change the fact that they witnessed firsthand the cruelty of what happens when anyone takes or touches anything. You might as well be preaching to the dead in their own case. The whispers wanted them to take it, damning everyone in here. Sadly, it miscalculated when it came to them. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The whispers came but were instantly driven away by their awakened sense of reality. Now, they heard no whispers. Dorian threw his head behind his shoulders, staring at the high ceilings with a slight smile on his lips. Interesting… .
The group walked to the far end, sending no dangers yet. However, the gruesome sites and revealed boobytraps made their throats tremble with every large gulp of saliva they forcefully swallowed.
The ancients sure were cruel. There were slanted giant squares that allowed them to see large spikes and spears underneath. Of course, the giant squares were still in slanted potions because they had dead bodies blocking them from rotating back. How to say it? It looked like some of their people fell into the trap and tried to crawl out but died halfway through. Look at that long spike piercing out this guy\'s intestines. Even if he managed to crawl out, his excess blood loss would still make him fall unconscious and eventually die without a medic on the scene. "What a cruel fate…" Many murmured, while observing around more. "Look! Look!" Someone called out, causing many to turn their heads to the side. "What?... It\'s definitely a corpse… but why is it wearing your Britannia\'s military wear?"
It looked like a thousand-year-old bandaged corpse with how dry and shriveled it was. So why was it here, wearing modern military attire? Could it be the worm animals that like playing dress-up in here? Harvey\'s body trembled uncontrollably, as his eyes quickly turned moist. Dropping to his knees, Harvey slammed his fists into the ground in pain. "That\'s not a thousand-year-old bandaged corpse… it\'s new… It\'s my friend, my comrade… the one who bought Dr. Ashaku and myself time to escape…. Romanoff… it\'s you, isn\'t it…"
Ashaku put his hands over his eyes, also crying silently when seeing the fate of those they left behind. They didn\'t die normally as the others but had every drop of blood and fluid brutally sucked out of them. Hitchcoff, The General and Miguel stared at the corpse, not knowing what to say. Yes~... The facts are in front of them. What Harvey and Ashaku said wasn\'t some made-up fairytale. It must be true. What pain the 2 felt all this while, they didn\'t make it easier for them by rejecting their truth.
These 2 came clean and they still snapped at them, even planning to send them to jail. .
Alas…
The General finally understood why these 2 refused to say anything at the start. He was afraid that even he might not know how to go about convincing people to do the things he saw Dorian do as of now.
It was a bogus story, yet true. However, if he gave such a report, wouldn\'t he be demoted and sent for repeated psychic evaluations till they were sure he was good in the head? He could also see it now. [Magic?
So you\'re saying the one called Grandmaster threw coins in the air and they not only floated by producing light that illuminated your path too? And the other one by the Grandmaster threw sand, that… pardon me. In your words, flew into the air and began stretching across the doors, only to later form a fist that somehow triggered the mechanism and opened the doors?... General Obediah… Did you take anything while on duty… mushrooms, perhaps?]
Oh… he could see it now. Sigh~
General Obediah massaged this left brow, also feeling the burden Harvey felt earlier when thinking of whether to report truthfully or not. Nonetheless, he decided to support Harvey if any military personnel took him in for questioning. Seeing Harvey crying so hard his voice was choking, Obediah couldn\'t in good conscience allow anything bad to happen to Harvey after knowing the true loss Harvey had. .
Hitchcoff also felt the same, as well as Miguel, who moved closer to Ashaku. "I\'m… I\'m sorry, old friend…. I should have believed you." "_" [Everyone else from other countries]
What\'s going on? Why was there a crying festival happening here? Believe what? Is there something these people know that they don\'t?
And what did that guy mean when he said the corpse was a friend of his? How is that possible?! That corpse has definitely had its fair share of time. Oh, look! There are other shriveled corpses scattered around too. Oddly, they are all wearing clothes of this era… no... era was too long.
They were wearing clothes from this decade. While Harvey and the others were busy with thoughts of their own, Landon had already opened the giant door ahead. This door was different from the last. It was more complicated. However, it was easily solved by Dorian.
"Let\'s go… We are getting close." Close? Yes! Close to the Mummy!
