Tomb Raider King

00008 3. Keep the good stuff.

Bang!

As soon as the Festival touches something in the dark, the passageway begins to shake violently. At first, his surroundings were shaking, and the tremors began to shift to the outskirts.

Linda and Abe, who just entered the entrance, are surprised and alert.

“W-what are you talking about? ”

Linda quickly turned on the light to see if she had detected a danger. As I turned on the lamp, a cave appeared as if a giant snake had pierced through it.

The road was divided into several branches, not one. Clearly, this underground passage was created because of the highly differentiated phenomenon. Of course, I didn't see any turquoise, not a real cave.

And Abe, who was looking around nervous for no reason, laughed in vain.

“Water park is the only place I can hear water...”

But Abe and Linda spoke up to that point and their faces distorted at the same time.

Wait a minute.

Water?

Kuku.

The sound of water was not just the sound of water. At first, the sound of staggering water became louder and louder, turning into a waterfall.

“Well, what the hell! ”

And when the sound finally came right before them, Linda and Abe had no choice but to scream. A giant tsunami swept over them.

“Fuck!”

“What's that? ”

They run with pale faces, but the speed of human foot cannot overcome nature. The sound of the waves echoes through the cavern.

“Grrrgh!”

Eventually, when the scream hits Ju-on through the cave wall, he smiles. He noticed what happened to them by sound alone.

“Yeah, well, someone's been sneaking up on me, assholes. ”

He chuckles and walks into the center of the tomb. Actually, I didn't do much. I merely touched the trap in the ruins.

You may ask how well you know the trap of the first tomb, but that didn't even matter to him.

All the traps of the chaotic graves were in my head, and even if they weren't, I could see them as soon as I entered the ruins.

What's the matter with you?

There's a Tomb Glyph inside the tomb.

As Juheon moved the disposable lighter toward the wall of the cave, the letters appeared as if they were waiting. It looked like a mural or sculpture in an ancient temple or pyramid grave, so he smiled.

[The effects of linguistics skills speed up Tomgliff's reading speed.]

Yes. It was a piece of information about the tomb. Whether the artifact here likes women, likes men, or doesn't want to know otherwise.

‘I think this is the artifact I know. ’

He continued to walk. It had not yet appeared, but the closer I got to the center of the tomb, the nucleus where the artifact was, the more moldy it smelled.

‘You can smell the grave anytime you want. ’

It was when he went down the road.

“Ah.”

A transparent pond appeared with an open space. What appeared to be a bison in a resembling cave, small for a lake, and big enough for a pond. Despite the dark cave, the surroundings are very bright due to the glowing pond.

Juheon looks at it and raises his mouth tail.

“Found it.”

This must be it. The artifact is here. He decided to take the Egyptian knife artifact.

Then I did what everyone else had to do.

Boom!

I threw the artifact I had obtained into the pond. Without hesitation, like you're feeding any goldfish!

Abena Linda, who knows about the artifact, may have been stunned.

But something amazing happened.

Bang!

Another earthquake, like the ground shakes behind you, brings out a white beast in the pond. It was big enough to swallow a man.

[Another poor fellow is missing something.]

What came out was a massive white burrow the size of a building. Like a living spirit, White's snarl opened its mouth.

There were two artifacts, identical to the knives that were thrown by Jujuen in the mouth. There's only a difference between gold and silver.

The snake glanced at him as if he were analyzing the contribution.

[Now tell me. Which one of these gold knives or silver knives is yours?]

At that, I lost my repulsive disappearance as if I had waited.

There you are, you arrogant relic.

* * *

Which one is mine?

Contributing to the snake's question, he snorted.

‘You ask the obvious question. ’

This is a fairy tale that only an adult would know.

< Golden and Silver Axes >

It was clear. The relics here were gold and silver axes. And this situation is some kind of test done by that damn relic.

In order to obtain the artifact like this, I had to pass the task in the grave properly. Only then will the artifact be recognized as its owner.

Knowing that, he calculated the value of the artifact. I have often sacrificed my life for a useless artifact.

‘Well, a gold and silver axe isn't just trash. ’

A Silver Axe with a Gold Axe is a B rank (Rare). At that rate, we should take it first.

That's when the snake rushed him.

Now, which one is yours?]

Soon, the gaze of Ju Heon was on the object.

A gold and silver axe, or a gold and silver knife. This item also looks precious to me. But he didn't even bother to tell me what to answer in this situation.

“They're not both mine. ”

Then the snake who folded his eyes into the half-moon showed me a familiar knife this time.

[So this is yours?]

Iron knife. Everywhere it looked, it was his own, and anyone who knew the tale of the golden axe silver axe would say,

‘Yes, that's mine. ’

In exchange for honesty, you can get all the gold and silver axes. This tomb was to be cleared that way. And in the past, Americans and Japanese would have carried these artifacts like this.

The golden axe silver axe was a fairly famous isophthalmic prototype called Hermes, and it was being conveyed to many countries in a similar form.

But...

‘Those idiots didn't know anything, they just took it with them. ’

That's why Joo-heon smiled nicely and asked the snake.

“Can I check if this is mine for a second? ”

[Whatever.]

At the same time, the eyes of Juheon, who received the knife, shimmered coldly.

And...

Things happened so fast.

Phew!

[Very affectionate!]

The worm screams and vomits blood. He shoved the Egyptian priest's knife into the snake's torso without blinking an eye.

The knife through the sliding scale cuts the serpent's flesh like a twist and cuts out its organs.

Screaming! The dull bone touches your blade, splattering blood, but it doesn't give you any relief.

Kwung! * Splash *

Eventually, the snake's heavy body hit the ground. The bloodstained snake vomited blood as if it were gross.

[What the hell...!]

“Why?”

[If I had been honest, this golden and silver axe would have been yours!]

You smile as if the Soul of the Living Spirit is dying outside the ground, but the fact that you know so much about the artifact is petty.

“Shut up. I basically don't trust you. ”

What?

“How else do you know the artifact was cursed? ”

[……!]

At the same time, I shudder to see if there are any punctures. The snake looks at the golden and silver relics with its shaking eyes.

He said that the contribution to the reaction was the same.

‘Of course. ’

I did.

In fact, the gold and silver axe that came out of the past killed 10,000 people in the United States. Ordinary people were the ones who turned Jason and killed people for fun.

It was all a big hoax of real gold and silver axes. He sent a fake cursed as a gift to do terrible things.

And now this one.

“Who knows if you'll become a homicidal maniac if you get the gift you gave me? ”

The serpent opened his eyes as if he had been stabbed.

[Hehe! How could you...!]

“How?”

However, he smiled as he approached the snake with the Egyptian priest's knife.

And...

Phew!

[Argh!]

I stabbed the snake once more. Even though he was torn apart, the serpent, who was drowsy and bored, trembled.

“Tools were made for human use. But is it necessary for a human to read the mind of a tool? ”

After experiencing the future, I knew the hateful nature of these relics.

At first, people thought of the artifact as luck and an angel of wealth, but increasingly, they realized that it was not.

‘Don't let the tools get to you. ’

Artifacts certainly gave many abilities and wealth to Humans, but in fact, their nature was close to pests.

If the three human desires were appetites, sexual desires, and sleep desires, the three human desires should be called human disdain, human mockery, and human murder.

You gave me abilities and wealth, and now you want me to pay for it? Small demons who seduce and blind humans with enormous power and ultimately try to kill their masters.

‘That's why artifacts need education. ’

That's why Humans suppressed these arrogant relics with their own special power.

Immediately.

“Stand down, artifact. ”

He twisted the knife that had been stabbed into the snake's body.

[Argh!]

Bang!

The white snake flutters with blood. It was more painful because of the dominance felt by the sword than the pain caused by the blade.

Bang, bang!

[The Human!]

Dominion refers to the talent or charisma to conquer an artifact. Every human has it, but when he has low control, he becomes an ordinary person or a minor user who wields the artifact instead of touching it.

‘Well, it'll be public knowledge in a few years. ’

On the other hand, the serpent who was suffering from dominance shouted as he struggled fiercely.

[You think you can get to me like this!]

You have to pass the artifact to get recognition. That's how they became friends with the artifact and were recognized as their masters.

But...

‘I can't get sick again just to be recognized by these guys. ’

The artifact secretly poisons its owner when it becomes close to its owner. Like a little bit of poison in the food. That is why, when the owner becomes weak, he takes control of the owner.

By the time he realized the nature of the artifacts, he had already gained 90% incurable illness in two-thirds of the world's population, and he also had to follow Kwon, looking only at the medical artifacts.

So this time, I was going to make sure from the beginning.

“I have no intention of humoring or criticizing you by solving your problems. ”

[What?]

The snarling eyes gleam, but he laughs with his nose.

It's an artifact from the grave. If you force it to go, it's enough.

“You'd better shut up and be ruled over useless things without humans. ”

You!

“If you don't want to surrender, don't. If you destroy an artifact that doesn't listen to me, that's it. ”

He was deeply embarrassed by the words. With this artifact, I could not comprehend the constitution. Even after analyzing the artifact at first glance, this human was extremely greedy about the artifact. Among humans, he wanted the artifact to be so greedy.

And he's going to destroy the artifact? This is insane!

[You crazy bastard!]

However, he coldly recited it with overwhelming eyes.

“Shut up, Tool. ”

It was just then.

[Hehe!]

Whether he eventually succumbed to the subjugation or thought Jujuon was really a madman who was going to destroy himself, there began to be tremendous light from the snake and the pond.
