Chapter 676


    This was a man-made cave and a big mountain had been hollowed out.


    There were all kinds of murals on the stone wall recording the daily life of the original residents and the


    ancient Barbarian ancestors who lived here including their emotions, celebrations, and mournings.


    The murals roughly outlined the wisdom of the ancestors of the Barbarians at that time. They worked in


    the mountains, nted, sailed, collected fruits, danced in front of the fire during the harvest season,

    and beat drums to celebrate. There was also a mass funeral tomemorate the dead.


    They were shocked by the murals on the wall, which could be thousands of years old or even older.


    “Who drew so many murals?” Even the top of the cave was full of paintings. It should be done by the


    same person ording to the painting style.


    Gary and Crabbie held the torches high and appreciated the ruins of these ancient civilizations


    seriously.


    Christina and Charles nced at the wall. Neither of them had any cultural connotation so they were


    not interested in such rigid murals at all.


    The two of them quickened their pace and walked forward. They felt that there must be a lot of gold


    and treasures in such a ce. They liked gold.


    “Stop.” Patrick stopped them.


    Christina replied seriously, “Let’s keep up with Rafael in the front…”


    Gary and Crabbie were still talking about the murals with great interest as she shouted. “Don’t people


    in this cave need to hunt for food? Why are they so free to draw so many murals?”


    Crabbie said casually, “Could it be that they were trapped here and couldn’t get out so they had nothing


    to do?”


    At this moment.)


    Everyone in the mountainside heard a loud rumble at the same time, apanied by a slight vibration


    of the entire mountain


    As soon as he came back to his senses, Patrick’s look changed and he was the first to shout out, “The


    stone door at the entrance is closed.”


    Bah, this jinx


    Gary and Crabble were no longer in the mood to observe these murals and ran back quickly


    Just then, they heard the anxious shouts of theirpanions outside the entrance, “What happened


    inside!”


    “Mr. Hopkins, the stone at the entrance is closed!!”


    They could not open this giant heavy stone door again by manpower and they could only watch it


    close. The whole cave looked even darker and suffocating then.


    At this moment, all of them had lost the mood to appreciate these ancient relics and they were all


    nervous.


    Soon they realized that Rafael, who was in front of them, had disappeared and Gary at the same time


    found that there were actually many mechanisms in the mountainside.


    “This is a movable stone brick.” Gary put the torch close to a wall and could see that there were many


    hidden moving stone bricks among the dense murals when he took a careful look.


    There was no doubt that Rafael must have activated a mechanism to close the entrance and fooled


    them.


    “This son of a bitch!” Crabbie cursed angrily.


    A pervert like Rafael had no credibility at all. As long as he got a chance, he would immediately give


    them a dirty trick.


    Suddenly, they realized that there were two people missing. Where were Christina and Charles?


    e were


    Patrick’s look was very gloomy. Gary and the others immediately divided into several teams, two in a


    group, and quickly looked around for the two of them without his order.


    The more they walked into the interior of the mountainside, the more they realized that this cave was


    not just a simple cave, but also had some mysterious secrets. Several passageways were in front of


    them and they did not know how to choose their way.


    Christina, Charles…” There was a long echo of the loud shouts in the cave.


    Fortunately, they soon heard, “We’re lost!” It was Christina’s shout. Perhaps she was afraid of being


    scolded, she immediately added, “We’re following behind Rafael. Don’t worry.”


    In Christina’s opinion, it must be safest to follow that pervert because Rafael would definitely find a way


    out. She and Charles didn’t know that the entrance was closed yet.


    While Patrick and the others were happy, they looked at the forked paths in front of them in confusion.


    *Christinal”


    *Which coad did you take just now?” Crabbie tried tomunicate with her loudly


    However, it seemed that Christina had gone far away now and she did not hear him or reply.


    This made them anxious. They felt that the two on the far left seemed to be in the direction of the


    sound but they were not sure.


    Which of these two passageways was the right way?


    Now the original entrance was deliberately closed by Rafael. Although Christina and Charles followed


    him, the two of them did not know the situation here. Patrick, on this side, had to find this shameless


    person, Rafael, as soon as possible if they did not want to be trapped here.


    “Let’s go in two ways.” This was their only choice to catch the survival chance.


    Once they entered one of the passageways, they might not be able to return the same way. Therefore,


    they could only choose different ways. As long as one of them found Rafael, they could solve the


    problem.


    Patrick led a few people to the leftmost passage while Gary and Crabbie took the rest of the people to


    the other passage.


    The noise of Patrick’s team made Christina, who was walking slowly in front of them, notice very


    quickly.


    “There’s someone behind us,” she said to Charles beside her.


    “Are they Patrick and the others? Why are they running so fast? Are they in any danger in the cave?”


    Charles became a little nervous as she thought about it.


    Charles knew Patrick very well. If it hadn’t been for an emergency, he wouldn’t have been in such a


    hurry. Something must have happened.


    Rafael, who was walking at the front, smiled coldly, thinking that they were really capable that they


    could catch up so quickly


    ck cat Earl seemed to have telepathy with its master. It nced at them with its golden eyes and


    immediately knew what its master wanted to do.


    With a few steps, the little ck shadow disappeared into the dark and narrow corridor.


    Although Christina was not as smart as her brother Rafael, she felt something was wrong when she


    saw Earl running so fast. Almost instinctively, she stepped away and ran in the direction where Earl


    disappeared.


    “Idiot! Dont touch that brick!”


    Rafael, who had always been calm, scolded Christina in an inexplicable impatient manner.


    Christina had already stepped on it before she understood what happened.


    Almost at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps behind her gradually approached. Patrick finally


    arrived there and found Christina and Rafael…


    The narrow stone corridor suddenly spun around and the huge stone door roared open. Christina


    screamed while the stone wall mechanisms around her moved.


    In an instant, the noise finished with a final bang.


    They were all locked up in the darkroom at the same time but were divided into two sides. Patrick and


    Charles were on one side while Christina and Rafael were on the other side.


    rms


    Their faces were all covered with dust. Patrick immediately lit the firearms again, counted the staff, and


    immediately shouted anxiously at the thick stone wall, “Christina!”


    “I’m opposite you.” Christina could hear them.


    Originally, they were all in the narrow corridor. Perhaps she was stepping on a moving stone switch and


    the huge stone wall immediately spun them into both sides. Therefore, both groups of them were


    trapped in the darkroom on both sides of the corridor.


    Someone had to turn on the switch to bring them back to where they were.


    “Where’s your cat? Let your cat take us out!” Christina was alone with Rafael and shouted at him


    anxiously.


    Rafael’s face darkened.


    He had originally asked Earl to open it at a certain time so that he could lock up Patrick, who was


    chasing after him. However, he did not expect his sister to use such a trick on him by mistake.


    “You’d better keep your mouth shut.” Rafael was furious and became murderous.


    Christina knew that she was like being alone with a wild wolf. She was in danger and could not fight


    against him by strength but she was not stupid. “Restore the mechanism immediately, or we will die


    together!”


    Christina looked as if she didn’t afraid of anything.


    She quickly found another moving stone brick mechanism and threatened him with her foot up. “I don’t


    know what kind of trap there is. Maybe a row of long nails would fall down and kill us both.”


    Rafael red at the mechanism under her feet. This was the first time he had entered the


    mountainside so he himself did not know the distribution of these mechanisms. Earl knew something


    but now he did not know where it was exactly


    He was even angrier seeing her stubborn expression,


    Christina found that his look seemed to be getting scarier. She was a little afraid of him but she knew


    she couldn’t lose her momentum now.


    She raised her voice and continued to threaten him, “I’m telling you, I’m not afraid of death but you’re.


    Aren’t you going to get the scepter anyway? Are you willing to die here… Immediately recover that


    mechanism and call your stinky cat over!”


    “Do you think I’m the god?” It was rare for Rafael to be in such a childish manner. He scolded. “You


    idiot. We would not be trapped here if you didn’t step on that mechanism.”


    He meant that he didn’t know how to restore the mechanism either.


    Christina suddenly realized that she had overestimated this pervert and thought that he was


    omnipotent.


    Under his fierce gaze, Christina gradually felt a little guilty but she straightened her chest and howled,


    “Then you don’t want the Scepter?” She didn’t believe that this pervert would give up so easily. He


    must have a lot of ways out.


    Rafael never thought that his father would give birth to such a virtuous daughter. He was so angry that


    he was about to give her a lesson.


    “The Scepter is in our hand!” A voice came from the darkroom opposite.


    Rafael immediately became suspicious. It was likely that Patrick had heard the conversation between


    them and deliberately lied, worried that he would hurt Christina.


    Patrick continued to shout at them, “Rafael, the Scepter you want is on our side. The scepter glows and


    it hovers in midair. The stone murals here have many stories about the Scepter being divided into


    three.”


    Hearing this, Rafael’s look changed slightly. He seemed to be a little skeptical. There were indeed


    many truths he wanted to find in the mountainside.


    Before Rafael could think out a way to negotiate with Patrick, Christina suddenly pulled him back and


    shouted in shock, “Hey, there is a dead person!”


    She was busy arguing with her brother and identally touched a quite smooth thing beside her as it


    was dark all around,


    She moved the light of the fire over and found it was a dead human skull. She was so scared that her


    face turned blue suddenly.


    “Someone came here… but finally dead.” The white bone looked so horrible and ominous.
