<h4>Chapter 88: Underground Tomb</h4>


    Ding!


    “Fusion progress: 1%.”


    “Fusion progress: 2%.”


    “Fusion progress: 3%.”


    “Fusion progress: 4%.”


    10,000 experience points could only give Aisha 1% of the progress.


    There was no need to worry about this matter. All that mattered was that it waspleted before today.


    “The ruins of the war are near the Lake of Death.”


    Lorne opened the map again.


    The ruins of the war covered a veryrge area, including the Windless Forest, the Illusionary Moon Mountain Range, the Lake of Death, the Fog Swamp, and otherrge maps.


    The northernmost location was the border of Iron Skull City. That was where the war had broken out and poured into the city.


    In order to maintain the peace and stability of that region, the elves, humans, and dwarfs had all constructed defensive forces there.


    “In order to find the dragon souls, I should go to the core battlefield, right?”


    From the mission map, Lorne saw that the core battlefield was located deeper than the event area. From this, it could be inferred that the former was more difficult.


    However, the harder the mission, the greater the reward.


    Lorne was also filled with anticipation regarding the Divine Radiance that came from the Divine Dragon of Order. A power that was so revered by the Dragon of Light definitely had extraordinary effects.


    …


    Ding!


    “Fusion progress: 10 %…”


    After seeing the map, Lorne continued to sweep through the forest. Due to the powerful output of his pets, the following battles were very victorious. In just an hour, he had already made Aisha’s fusion progress exceed 10%.


    ording to this direction, they would soon reach the expeditionary army camp.


    But Lorne did not do so.


    His n was toplete Aisha’s fusion mission before he reached the camp.


    Therefore, he chose to circle around and wander through the forest.


    ording to Lorne’s expectations, he should arrive at the expeditionary army camp before dawn today and allow Aisha toplete the fusion process.


    It was a perfect n.


    But at that moment, suddenly, the Dragon Soul Compass in Lorne’s inventory shook violently.


    The needle on thepass spun crazily and finally stopped in one direction.


    Lorne’s eyes lit up.


    The use of [Dragon Soul Compass] was to find the location of the dragon soul. Its reaction meant that there were traces of a dragon soul nearby!


    “Strange, this is not the area of the ruins of the war, right?”


    Lorne was confused, but he remembered that he had obtained [Gabriel’s Feather] in the Dark Forest, so he was not surprised.


    The war back then was huge and affected so many areas. It was normal for the dragons to die in the surrounding forest.


    He wondered if there were any dragon skeletons.


    If there was, he could use the dragon skeleton to create a pet. It would be a surprise.


    …


    He followed the instructions.


    After traveling through the forest for about ten minutes, Lorne arrived at a graveyard.


    There were ruined tombs everywhere. Some skeletons were even abandoned on the ground, scattered in all directions in the forest.


    Lorne moved on.


    At this moment, the surroundings had changed greatly.


    This ce was deathly silent. The surrounding trees were also badly weathered, and the nts were even pitch-ck like statues, giving off a strange feeling.


    “What happened?”


    Lorne looked at thepass. The pointer on it began to spin crazily. A single direction was not indicated, as if there were things all around that made it react.


    But strangely, there was nothing unusual around.


    Apart from a slightly intact tomb that he saw.


    “Could it be underground?”


    To make the needle react in such a way, it meant that there was a very close target nearby. Since there was no one above the ground, it had to be underground.


    Lorne stepped forward and began to examine the grave.


    A thousand years had passed. How could a grave be so intact?


    There had to be something going on inside.


    ng!


    Lorne tapped the tombstone with the short staff in his hand.


    In the next second, a durability bar appeared above the tombstone.


    This meant that it could be destroyed.


    Without a word, Lorne had the two archers in the team attack the tombstone.


    The two longbows sounded one after another, more than ten arrows fired at the same time.


    The durability of the tombstone was instantly emptied.


    Crack!


    Cracks appeared on the tombstone, and then a transparent mirror seemed to be shattered.


    It was a barrier set up by someone.


    Only by shattering this enchantment could he find the entrance to the tomb.


    At this moment, a small magic circle appeared in front of the tombstone. It was the only way to enter the underground dungeon.


    Without any hesitation, Lorne stood up.


    In the next second, light shed and he vanished on the spot.


    When it appeared again, Lorne found himself underground.


    What appeared in front of him was a dark passageway. There was a cold aura around it that made one’s hair stand on end.


    Aisha suddenly had a reaction. She felt very uneasy.


    Perhaps it was because of the Holy Angel in her body, but she instinctively rejected it.


    Lorne did not force her. He let her return to the pet space and ordered, “Rimuru, move forward.”


    Those with high HP led the way, this was true in any game.


    The little guy did not know fear as it bounced deeper into the grave.


    As he gradually went deeper, a very pungent smell came. It was the rotting smell of the undead. Lorne had learned about it in the Beginner Vige dungeon.


    While adjusting his sense of smell, he suddenly looked deep into the grave path.


    Monsters wereing!


    There was the sound of bones grinding.


    “Creak…”


    Soon, a group of terrifying skeleton monsters appeared in the tunnel. They were dressed in rotting armor and held sabers and battle shields in their hands. Crimson soul fire floated in their dark eyes as they stared at Lorne and his pets.


    ————


    [Skeleton Soldier] (Ordinary)


    Level: 27


    Attributes: …


    ————


    A Level 27 ordinary monster had ordinary attributes.


    However, Lorne had a bad feeling about this, for wherever there were skeleton soldiers, there would definitely be undead mages.


    These fellows who walked in the cemetery and stole the corpses of soldiers had the power to resurrect the undead.


    If they found the corpse of a dragon…


    That would be terrifying.
