CHAPTER 754: 592 SHE, IS STILL ALIVE...?_2
This matter, not to mention the kind-hearted little princess who didn’t want to see it, even Reiger didn’t want to see it.
He admittedly didn’t have any feelings of compassion for humanity, but to bring disaster upon so many people in two countries, that was something he too could not do.
Therefore, Reiger now also didn’t dare to take Liz towards the groove, to let her insert the sword of Moslo.
At least, until it was confirmed what would happen after inserting the sword of Moslo, Reiger absolutely did not want to do this.
"Let’s go in and see."
Seeing Liz also looking confused, Reiger finally decided to give her a push.
"After all, we have come here with a purpose, and now that the purpose is not yet achieved, logically and emotionally, we must go in and take a look before leaving."
Hearing this, Liz turned her head, looked at Reiger, and after a while nodded, murmuring quietly.
"I’ll listen to Master."
The little princess’s whisper made Reiger smile subtly.
"Then let’s go."
Reiger extended a hand towards Liz.
"Yes."
Liz immediately extended her own hand and clasped it with Reiger’s.
The two of them then felt each other’s presence and slowly walked into the hidden passage, disappearing within it.
...
Unlike the previous passage that led to the underground magma area where the ancient fire dragon resided, the passage hidden behind the statue was not long nor suffocating, and was quickly traversed.
In this passage, Reiger did not encounter any magical traps, only encountering new murals on either side of the passage.
These murals did not depict the struggle between the humans of an ancient magic civilization and the monsters ravaging the continent, as seen in the stone hall, but rather the founding histories of two families.
Initially, there was a person wielding a shimmering golden sword who saved someone from the mouths of monsters and kept the person by his side, traveling together.
During this journey, the person wielding the shimmering golden sword continuously fought monsters, rescuing the oppressed people on the land, causing the person who was always by his side to also start taking up arms and fighting the monsters.
The two were either good friends or became a master and servant, always staying together.
In the meantime, the person with the shimmering golden sword would sometimes chat with the other under the moonlight, at times teaching fighting skills, sometimes protecting the other, and sometimes sternly reprimanding, creating numerous daily life interactions.
In such circumstances, the number of people that the person with the shimmering golden sword saved increased, and so did his followers, and similarly, the followers of the person initially by his side also increased, eventually seeming to form a family, a very significant power.
Yet, this person still followed the one with the shimmering golden sword, never leaving his side from beginning to end.
As time passed, the person wielding the shimmering golden sword finally died a natural death, passing the sword to the next generation.
The follower also served by his side until his own death and passed this responsibility on to the next generation.
Thus, the two families formed a bond that was not to be dissolved, accompanying each other through various eras.
The last of the murals showed the followers placing a queen wielding a golden sword into a coffin and worshipping her.
"Is this the connection between the Reinnaier and Tistis families?"
Reiger vaguely guessed something.
"..."
Liz, too, was looking at these murals, unsure of what to comment, displaying a mix of myriad emotions.
In this way, they both finished viewing the last mural and also walked the final stretch of the path, entering the burial chamber at the end of the passage.
This was a burial chamber that was neither spacious nor luxurious, and was even somewhat austere.
The chamber resembled an altar, with a raised platform in the middle, and four sets of stairs around the platform, allowing access from the east, south, west, and north.
In front of the altar, there was also a stone stele.
"’The Tomb of Queen Yuloli Reinayier.’
Seeing the ancient text on the stone stele, Reiger knew that his earlier guess was correct.
This was indeed a burial chamber, and it belonged to the last queen of the ancient heroic Reinayier family.
"Yuloli Reinayier..."
Reiger finally knew the true name of the last queen from this heroic family.
The other party was the last splendor of the ancient magical civilization.
The other party was the last leader of the ancient magical civilization’s humans.
The other party was also a witness to the fall of the ancient magical civilization, had combatted the disaster that led to its extinction, and was suspected to have sealed that adversary away.
It could be said that the other party was the most distinguished person in the world, whose status no king or emperor of any country could compare with.
This was undoubtedly a great man, a hero, a king.
Now, the tomb of such a great man, a hero, a king, appeared before Reiger and Liz.
Reiger immediately raised his head and looked upward at the altar.
There, quietly lay a stone coffin.
"..."
Reiger and Liz exchanged glances and then walked up the steps to the very top of the altar.
Here lay only this stone coffin, without any other objects.
To Reiger and Liz’s surprise, the stone coffin was without a lid.
It was wide open, filled inside with fresh flowers and various gold and silver ornaments.
Reiger could feel that the gold and silver ornaments were not ordinary jewels.
Whether it be necklaces or rings, or even pieces of crystal, gems, or jade, all had a subtle magic power fluctuating within them.
There also lay a long and a short staff, the flowing magic on them even more astounding, unmistakably not ordinary items.
Reiger could confidently say...
"These staves, staffs, necklaces, and rings, they are all ancient secret treasures."
Yes!
All of them were ancient secret treasures!
And not just ordinary treasures, but ancient secret treasures that had descended from the ancient magical civilization and had not seen the light of day until now!
Any one of these ancient secret treasures was worth a fortune!
Any one of these ancient secret treasures possessed immense power!
As the accompaniment to the last queen of the ancient magical civilization, their value was simply incalculable!
Even those gems and crystals, any piece taken out and placed outside, were worth a fortune!
If Sgranot had come here and seen these treasures, he would surely regret not venturing in, wouldn’t he?
Even Reiger and Liz, upon seeing so many valuable treasures, felt dizzy.
However, the emergence of these priceless ancient secret treasures, under normal circumstances, would have completely captured Reiger and Liz’s attention, leaving them unable to focus on anything else.
But at this moment, they had to divert their attention to another matter.
It was something more astonishing, more magical, more incredible than these priceless ancient secret treasures.
It was a person.
A person quietly lying in this stone coffin filled with fresh flowers and treasures, hands clasped in front of her chest, as though praying or sleeping peacefully—a person.
"She... she..."
Liz was so shocked she couldn’t speak.
Not just Liz, but even Reiger was stunned and shocked.
The person lying in the stone coffin, whether in appearance or in the clothes they wore, looked as fresh as new, with no signs of decay or damage.
This made the person in the stone coffin look like they were merely sleeping, not at all like they had died.
The person’s face even had a tender quality, and the complexion was not lost.
This led Reiger and Liz to a startling realization.
"Is she still alive...?"
A chilling sensation suddenly swept over them.
