Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

Saying goodbye to the trio, Li Rui and I continued our journey north.

Liu Lei made all the arrangements for the Changbai Mountain side. He changed several batches of waiters along the way. Word spread throughout the Wu family, and the Jie family and Jude Kao were looking for me.

"Young master, you are awesome." I had just changed a car, and I smiled and showed off to Li Rui who got into the car shed.

"Hmph!" Li Rui patted the snow on his head. After crossing the Erdaobai River, it started to snow. "You'd better think about how to end it."

"They are all our own people. The most they can do is beat me up and then throw me over the top of the border defense line." I said nonchalantly. "But it's amazing for me to be able to turn around so many respectable people. Later, you can ask the Taoist priests what they think of me. Is it a young hero who excels in his skills? Hehe."

"Tell me on the road." Li Rui said in a long voice, "Tell me, I've never seen anyone so actively seeking death."

"Hey~~

After taking a lot of detours, we finally arrived at Yingshan Village again.

"Have you thought about it?" The unshaven mute sat on the fire bed and smoked a dry cigarette.

"Think about it." I replied. "Leave in an hour."

"I didn't expect that you could reach this level with your ability." The mute said, "After entering, life and death will depend on heaven. The time is not up yet. Heed my advice and go back."

I shook my head, took out the ghost wrench and said, "You just need to lead the way."

An hour later, a team of five people left Yingshan Village and moved in the direction of Tiangong.

Two days later the mute pointed to the hole in front and said. After taking over the equipment, it was actually just a backpack and a black gold sword. Li Rui got a canvas bag for the knife so he could carry it on his back.

"Go back." After saying that, I took my things and walked towards the cave.

"Brother Rui, let's go back." The sky was terribly gloomy, the wind was swirling the snowflakes, and the wind was whistling in my ears. Members of the team pulled Li Rui, who was standing there, and shouted.

The four of them walked further and further away along the route they came from.

This passage was intentionally left behind by the archaeological team.

Soon, under the illumination of the searchlight, the giant bronze door came into view, and the human skins used to seal the door were scattered on the ground. There was the sound of chains in the distance. I held up the light to shine on them. The bronze chains vibrated up and down but there was nothing there. Two shadows were reflected on the wall, which were those invisible strange birds.

The centipedes below were motionless guarding an empty coffin.

Putting down the black gold knife, he took out the thermos box from his bag. There were two syringes lying inside, and he tied a tourniquet on one hand. The particles in the cyan liquid shimmered under the searchlight, which was the powder of Xiwangmu meteorite. There were more and more shadows on the wall, and I inserted the needle into my vein.

After the two injections were completed, he picked up the black gold knife on the ground with one hand, clenched his fist, and felt unprecedented power.

At this time, the two huge bronze doors moved outward a little. A small, extremely dark gap appeared between the two doors, and a strange smell blew out from the gap.

The light of the searchlight disappeared completely as soon as it entered the giant door.

The birds left one after another, a few lights lit up in the darkness inside the bronze door, and a light blue mist rose rapidly like cloud waves.

Almost instantly, clouds filled the area below the knees, and searchlights began to lose their effectiveness. Then a series of antler horns came from the rift valley, and the same team as last time came from a distance.

The worn-out armor from the Yin and Shang Dynasties, with flagpoles in their hands, and the team behind them were extremely fast. It came to you in a blink of an eye. Those pale faces changed from numb to ferocious, everyone opened their mouths, and "kill" seemed to be heard in their ears!

I gently tapped the bronze bell hanging on my ear. This was the ear piercing Li Rui had pierced for me. I didn't feel anything when it was cold and freezing outside, but as I got deeper and the temperature rose, I felt a dull pain.

"Ding~~Bell~~~"

Those strange statues dispersed like mist and reappeared three meters away. Their expressions returned to indifference and they continued to march towards the bronze door.

These people used to be the guides of the organization, but now they are dead and still affected by the "ultimate" power, entering the Bronze Gate at a specific time.

It suddenly occurred to me that the mute might also be a guide, and I must ask if I have the chance.

I put the black gold knife on my shoulder and followed through the bronze door. The ground shook suddenly, and the huge bronze door closed instantly.

The mist surrounding the Yin Soldiers gave off a little bit of fluorescence in the darkness. I followed behind, the bronze bells on my ears ringing from time to time. Every time it rang, the mist moved farther away. I can only run to avoid losing track.

In the end, I could only see a bright spot. I accelerated as hard as I could. If I lost track at this time, it would be all over.

Looking at the light spots that were no longer moving, I wiped my sweat. It seems that I have some protagonist aura around me.

The Yin soldiers were kneeling in front of a stone platform. I took a step forward. The Yin soldiers were about to move, so I was so frightened that I clicked the bell again.

There is a groove on the stone platform, and there are some unknown words next to it. The movements of those Yin soldiers tended to intensify. Although they still knelt down, they stared with ferocious faces.

I put on the ghost head wrench and pressed the ghost seal towards the groove. Those Yin soldiers finally lowered their heads, the stone wall behind opened, and I walked in with a burst of white light.

"This is the ultimate." I muttered to myself as I looked at the scene in front of me.

A huge deep pit, with soft white light emitting from below, countless bronze chains hanging from above, and surrounded by spiral stairs carved out of the cave wall.

I took a look at the huge carvings on the wall. It started with a man walking among the mountains, and then a group of people kneeling down to worship the throne. On the throne was a strange totem, which was the same as the one on the black gold knife handle in my hand. These correspond one to one with Wang Zanghai's silk books.

What I want to talk about below is what I have learned about the hidden truth about the "ultimate".

Wang Zanghai recorded that the medium used to modify the basic attributes and creations of the first batch of members was obtained by the Queen Mother of the West. It is not clear whether it was obtained by violent plunder or a gift from an exchange of interests.

Those creation projects also stopped when the meteor jade left the "ultimate"; the last creation was the corpse cricket elixir created by the Queen Mother of the West.

Although "Ultimate" requires maintenance from outside personnel, this does not mean that it has no self-protection capabilities. On the contrary, only one person has been able to get close to the "ultimate" so far, and that is the [Customer Service] who discovered that the computing core was disconnected and organized protection.

Everyone else has to pay a price to get to "Ultimate". As for the price Wang Zanghai paid, there is no way to know.

That group of people defected and took away not only Guixi, but also two keys - Wang Zanghai called them "gatekeepers" and "keys".

The latter part is a bit difficult to read. Not only is the language confusing, but it seems more like something happened that was too late to write down, and there is no mention of the "key".

But some scraps indicate that a special bronze bell is needed to reach the ultimate level. I remembered the one I got from Aning.

The "gatekeepers" are naturally the Zhang family. According to records, the black gold sword held by the first patriarch of the Zhang family was made in order to reduce the "ultimate" power before defecting, and it contained a ray of "ultimate" power inside.

The "key" is probably Wu Xie.

The composition of Wu Sansheng's generation is very similar to the composition of Wu Xie Group today. Zhang Qiling and Qi Yu, Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie. Including the trip to Banai, Zhang Taotao personally admitted that Qi Yu was the "key" and said excitedly that "it" would not allow the "key" to live.
