Banner of the Evil God

No one would have thought that Ruhl would save so much money without seeing it with their own eyes.

Although the distance was still far and it was unclear how much money was there, just by the light of the gems, it was clear that it was a large pile of money.

A pile of golden coins.

"I never thought that... gold coins could also be described as a 'pile'." Palin's eyes were straight and he muttered to himself.

"This guy must have taken most of the wealth he robbed." Gerard said.

Ryan was the calmest of the three. Perhaps out of the professional habit of a thief, he immediately turned his eyes away from the pile of gold coins and looked at the ground nearby.

Then, he took out a magic wand for lighting.

This simple magic product can provide a long-term and stable cold light source. It will not consume air to cause suffocation, nor is it afraid of flooding. Except for the slightly expensive price, it is almost a perfect lighting tool for adventurers.

Under the slightly bluish cold light source, the old thief carefully checked the ground and soon found several traps.

Yes, several traps, and there are probably more ahead.

"Bloodhand Ruel is so cruel! He has already locked the entrance to the treasure with a magic circle, but he still set traps inside the treasure!" Gerald said angrily, "Dark! Too dark!"

"Many treasure hunters have this problem, it's not surprising." Ryan said lightly, "When I was adventuring, I found a hundred traps in the treasure house of a necromancer."

He said it lightly, and Gerald and Palin's faces turned green.

There are actually a hundred traps in a treasure house? ! If so many traps are activated, let alone your life, even your body will not be left!

"What happened later?" Palin asked.

"Nothing happened, two teammates died, and the traps were dismantled." Ryan still said lightly, "After the money is divided, I will retire."

The topic cooled down temporarily, but Ryan did not rush to dismantle the traps in front, but fixed the magic wand to the wall beside him with glue, then turned around and searched the place where they were teleported.

"What are you looking for?" Gerard asked.

"The mechanism to leave here." Ryan didn't even raise his head. "This place should be teleported. Find the mechanism to leave first and make it ready to be activated at any time. If there is any accident, there will be time to escape."

The rich experience of the old man made the two of them respect him, but this made them a little embarrassed. There was a trap in front and no way to go behind. They could only move forward and backward in this small place.

Palin was fine. He took out a book and read it under the steady and soft cold light of the magic wand. Gerard was uncomfortable. He was huge and standing here was a bit cramped and narrow. He couldn't walk around, which was really embarrassing.

He wanted to swing the axe and smash some of the surrounding rocks, but he was afraid that smashing the rocks would cause a collapse and bury everyone alive. In the end, he had no choice but to sit down with his knees hugged and yawned soon.

Time passed bit by bit, and Ryan was always working in an orderly manner. Palin finished reading a book, put it back in his backpack, and took out another one, this time a magic book. While reading it carefully, he used his fingers to draw lines of magic in the air and do some basic research.

As for Gerald, he had fallen asleep because he was too bored.

After an unknown amount of time, a green light suddenly flashed, and Ryan exclaimed. His body was covered by the green light and disappeared without a trace in an instant. Then the teleportation magic circle on the ground that he had been tossing for a long time emitted a fierce strong light, and it exploded with a bang, and there was even more red poisonous gas rising up, which spread in a blink of an eye, enveloping Gerald and Palin.

Gerald was sleeping soundly, and he inhaled a large mouthful of poisonous gas, and suddenly coughed violently, and was choked awake. He opened his eyes and saw that in the cold light of the magic wand, Palin was curled up on the ground with a face full of pain, his hands scratched his throat and blood came out, but it did not help his predicament.

This young wizard, a boy who loved reading, died.

Gerard was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look for Ryan, but found no trace of the old thief.

"What's going on? Where is Ryan? This trap is..."

The highly toxic gas filled his trachea and lungs, making him cough violently again. From the nose and mouth to the throat and then to the trachea and alveoli, the feeling that was not severe but very uncomfortable interrupted his thoughts.

Being able to survive in the poison until now, and not really suffering fatal injuries, the powerful body built by Sui Xiong himself once again proved its superiority. However, Gerard did not think of this at all at this moment. His mind was full of doubts and anger, and he was even more confused, not knowing what was going on.

"Your Majesty..." He tried to pray, but he didn't know what to pray for.

The moment he prayed, Sui Xiong, who had been concentrating on research, was awakened. The soul's veins spread along the bone bracelet and saw the situation here clearly.

"What's going on? Aren't they going to look for treasure? How come there is only one left out of the three? One is dead, and the other is dead without even a body left?"

He talked to himself while urging his magic power to turn into a breeze to dispel the poisonous fog.

However, the poisonous fog was very strange. It did not dissipate when the wind blew, but became thicker. The red fog filled the entire treasure cave, and it was almost pitch dark.

"Damn! I still encounter smog after traveling through time. The Environmental Protection Bureau of this world is definitely a loser!" Sui Xiong muttered, carefully analyzing the composition of the poisonous fog, and then his magic suddenly shook, turning into a circle of soft green light, slowly dispersing.

This time, the power of the green light just offset the magic that constitutes the poisonous fog. Wherever the green light goes, the red poisonous fog disappears.

Just like a magic trick, the green light circle swept around the treasure cave, and the red poisonous fog disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

"Gerald, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty, I... I don't know..." Gerald said anxiously, "I just took a nap and woke up like this."

"... You can sleep while searching for treasures, you are really talented!" Sui Xiong sighed, "Then I have to ask someone else."

Is there anyone else to ask? Gerald was stunned.

I saw a misty black gas emanating from the bone bracelet, slowly dispersing in the air. A gloomy and uneasy atmosphere permeated, making people feel heavy in their hearts.

After a while, countless tiny points of light rose from the dead Palin, slowly gathering into a vague human figure.

"Your Majesty, is this Palin's soul?"

"No, it's just the thoughts left in the flesh." Sui Xiong said, "His soul has gone to the kingdom of the dead, but memory is not only in the soul, the body also retains memory. I will now activate the thoughts left in his body, and then revitalize his body. In this way..."

"He is resurrected?" Gerard asked excitedly.

Sui Xiong hesitated, not knowing how to answer.

If on Earth, a person's body is revitalized and his mind is revived, of course he is resurrected. Even in front of a big academic who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, he dared to declare so with his head held high.

But in this world, life is not just a matter of the body, there is also a more important factor of the soul. Palin's soul has gone to the underworld. Unless the soul is pulled back from the underworld and stuffed back into this revived body, it cannot be called "resurrection".

Strictly speaking, Palin is now a walking corpse without a soul.

When the vague human figure slowly condensed, Sui Xiong cast another green light on the dead boy's body. The injuries inside and outside the body quickly disappeared, and he was completely restored to health. More vigorous vitality burst out from the body, making the pale cheeks regain their color.

The invisible force grabbed the human figure formed by the remaining thoughts and stuffed it into the body.

The next moment, the boy opened his eyes.

At first, his eyes were a little confused. After a while, his eyes gradually regained focus, and his thoughts gradually became clear.

"I'm not... dead?" He hesitated and said, "I remember... I was killed by the Death Cloud Technique..."

"You are dead, but you are resurrected." Gerard said with a smile, "Life and death are not things we mortals should consider. Tell me what happened first."

So Palin gave up thinking about some philosophical questions and fell into memories.

"I was reading a book, and suddenly heard Ryan's exclamation, and then looked up and saw him being teleported away. Then I saw the trap erupted and the red death cloud filled the air. Before I could escape, I was covered by the death cloud. I felt extreme pain from my throat to my chest, and then I knew nothing-until I was resurrected."

"So, Ryan had an accident when he was breaking the trap?" Gerard pondered, "Then I don't know how he is... I hope he's okay."

At this time, Sui Xiong sneered.

"Don't worry, he's fine, he's doing well now!"

A blue light projected from the bone bracelet and turned into a transparent screen in the air. The screen showed the scene of the forest where the treasure was.

Ryan was busy, shoveling the dirt and filling up the big hole that Gerrard had dug. Sui Xiong gave him a close-up of his face, and he was smiling and smug.

No need to say anything more, no need to think about it, just look at his expression and you will know what happened.

"Damn it!" Gerrard yelled angrily, "This despicable old thief! I can't forgive him!"

"It turns out... he plotted against us..." Palin shook his head in disbelief, "Why did he do this? Is it to take the treasure for himself?"

"Why do you do this? Keep reading and you will know." Sui Xiong's voice echoed in the air, "Let's put down our anger for now and see what this despicable old man wants to do."

"I believe that all the causes and consequences will soon appear before our eyes..."
