Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?
Chapter 62: Peacock King
Unlike Chi Yu's leisurely stroll, the man with black glasses did not move forward very fast.
He is always cautious when facing unknown organizations.
The man with black glasses could see that this passage was filled with mechanisms. Apart from those that had been triggered and rendered inoperable, many more were still hidden inside, secretly waiting for the day when ignorant people would step into the trap.
Seeing Chi Yu urging him with malicious intent but not saying anything else, as if waiting to see the show, the man with black glasses smiled and shook his head, secretly speeding up.
After the man with black glasses also passed through the tunnel, Chi Yu turned around, looked at the sealed stone door, put his hand into the only small hole on the stone door, and stretched out his fingers to dig it.
He took out a gold-like object about the size of a longan, and then there was a sound of a mechanism being activated. The stone door slowly slid into both sides, opening the door for Chi Yu and the man with black glasses.
Behind the stone gate is a not-too-big stone chamber.
This place doesn't look like it has been modified too much. There are traces of excavation all around, and only some protruding parts serve as shelves.
There were some scrolls on it, most of which had been corroded and broken into pieces due to their age, and only their original shapes could be barely seen from them.
Chi Yu walked towards the shelf, brushed away the debris, and found the scroll buried deep at the bottom of the pile of miscellaneous items. This was also his goal.
This is a jade tablet that is made entirely of jade.
There were some characters engraved on it that Chi Yu didn't recognize. There were about ten pieces in total, all connected together by delicate gold threads, made into the style of a scroll.
However, although this thing looks very valuable, Chi Yu’s primary target is not it.
Chi Yu slowly unfolded it, and a broken bone fragment suddenly fell out of it, which he caught with good preparation.
[Incomplete bone fragment: A bone fragment made from bones of an unknown creature, which has mysterious power. Since a large part of it is missing, it can only increase the player's defense by 3%. ]
[Current task collection degree: 2/6]
A strange warmth enveloped Chi Yu. He felt it for a moment and his eyes lingered on the entry briefly. He found that the benefit of this new bone fragment was different from the previous one. Instead, it increased the player's partial defense.
"How did you know this thing was in there?"
"I'm good at getting what I want." Chi Yu put away the second bone fragment and answered casually, his heart flying to the location of the third bone fragment.
The man with black glasses came over and took the precious jade note from Chi Yu's hand. Although it was precious, it was not valued at all. He looked it up and down and asked Chi Yu, "It seems that you don't care much about this jade note. In this case, how about giving it to me? It will be the reward for my brother to accompany you down here."
Chi Yu nodded indifferently.
After all, he never wandered between the tombs for money. Except for the first few short days, Chi Yu never lacked money or material things in the following days.
On the other hand, the man with black glasses, although he had obviously received a lot of money, still looked like he was greedy for money. It was completely unknown what he did with this man's money.
However, why Black Glasses needs so much money actually has nothing to do with Chi Yu.
Although the development of their relationship has now become somewhat different from what Chi Yu originally imagined, he still doesn't think the connection between them is that close, and there is no need for him to understand the secret behind the black glasses.
Thinking of this, Chi Yu retracted his gaze, walked out of the stone chamber, and walked towards the next target point.
If you continue walking inside, you can see the remains of some dead bodies. Under the erosion of time, they have turned into a pile of bones, with only blackened cloth still clinging to them.
According to the contents of the notes, Chi Yu knew that these were the people mentioned by the author who lost their lives because they accidentally triggered the mechanism, and the descendants of Lan Lana probably chose to retreat from here.
There was no relevant record of what happened afterwards in the notebook. Chi Yu stopped recalling and followed the route provided by the Mo Yu map. Wearing black glasses, he bypassed many dangerous traps and successfully collected the third bone fragment.
This time, the attribute gain provided by the broken bone fragment is [Life recovery effect increased by 15%].
Chi Yu looked at the bone fragment in his hand and fell into deep thought, thinking that it was a good thing that this thing did not restore his health at a percentage rate every second.
Otherwise, although survivability is guaranteed, it is also an epic weakening of Zuo Le’s talent.
Chi Yu thought about the gains he had already received related to [Attack Power], [Defense], and [Life Recovery], and began to wonder if the next three fragments he would get would also have bonuses to [Attack Speed], [Life Force], and [Spell Resistance] according to the attributes he had in the game.
If so, then this bone fragment should be like the King's Set in the game Pigeon, which belongs to the combination set collection. If there are additional bonuses after successfully collecting them, then the gain he gets will be enormous.
However, these are just Chi Yu's guesses at the moment. The actual situation will only be revealed after this side quest is completed.
The fourth bone fragment was placed in a hall that was as solemn and dignified as a temple.
There were several bronze candlesticks in the hall. The candles were always burning, and the light they emitted was enough to illuminate every corner of the hall. At the same time, the air was filled with a faint scent of incense.
The stone platform is surrounded by exquisite carvings and gorgeous decorations, and the walls are covered with ancient scrolls and texts, which seem to tell stories and legends from past years.
On the high hall, a huge peacock stretches its wings, and a man with four hands sits on it with a compassionate face, revealing an otherworldly temperament and deep compassion.
I saw that the man was holding a lotus in one hand and an unidentifiable fruit in the other hand, while the other two hands held a pomegranate in one hand and five peacock tail feathers in the other hand.
Black Glasses looked at the Buddha statue that almost filled up half of the hall and laughed in surprise: "Why is there a statue of the Vajra King of Tantric Buddhism here? Isn't this right?"
