Chapter 568 Official Assistance
r later, on that same day, the werewolf Tyler had calculated his time to strike her, so she wasn't in any hurry to leave the bar."Ripple, get ready. I'm taking you back to see Lord Patte.""Right now""...Three days after the ripples incident, Long Hu Shan received an official invitation to assist an archaeological team in exploring a newly discovered ancient tomb.
This ancient tomb was discovered in a deep mountain. One member of an adventure group exploring the area accidentally fell into a tunnel dug by grave robbers, bringing this tomb back to light.
But the man who fell in was nearly scared to death, because the place he fell into was a pit that had killed countless people. There were several fresh corpses inside, clearly not dead for long. He screamed uncontrollably, making his companions above think something terrible had happened to him.
Then everyone was in a panic, calling the police and an ambulance. Some people immediately went to the foot of the mountain to find locals for help. In short, it was a chaotic day, but the person was rescued. He just looked dazed and confused. The doctor said it was shock, so he was a little dazed. He would be fine after resting for a few days.
The police took over the subsequent investigation work. They discovered a body at the scene, classifying it as a homicide scene. They will conduct further investigations.
The forensic doctor who accompanied the team gave an unexpected answer after a preliminary examination: the bones in the pit were not recent, at least five hundred years old. The bones closer to the bottom of the pit had even begun to petrify.
As for the other bodies that were still decomposing, they had died within a month. Due to the cold and damp environment underground, their decomposition was significantly slower. Police initially suspected that these individuals were tomb robbers who didn't manage to steal anything and ended up losing their lives in the process.
The next step is up to the archaeologists. The experts, accompanied by their surveying team, arrived here as quickly as possible. After initial exploration, it appears to be a cemetery complex, containing the remains of a high-profile figure. This has caused great excitement among the archaeological team.
If they fully unearth this tomb, they will become legends in the archaeology world. So these people eagerly plunged into the excavation work. However, members of the archaeological team began to experience a series of misfortunes: some claimed to see ghosts, others disappeared, and still others suffered drastic personality changes, starting to attack their teammates.
Unfortunately, the archeological team could only halt excavation and seek external assistance. The authorities found that Lung Fu Wei was a relatively reliable choice.
After receiving the notification, Sect Leader Deng began to ponder who would be most suitable to send. Ripple happened to come looking for him at that very moment.
"Senior Brother Deng, I want to take a look at this mission."
A ripple in a white gown, she slowly walked into the office of Patriarch Deng.
"Ripples junior sister, you've broken through again!"
Deng Zhǎngmén smiled and asked.
His junior sister had already walked into his study, but he hadn't heard a sound. If his junior sister hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have noticed that there was an extra person in the room.
"Thanks to my senior brother, he found me a diligent and obedient disciple. I was so happy that I broke through a small level."
Ripples said humbly.
The Celestial Masters are divided into four ranks: Junior, Intermediate, Senior, and Grand Master. Each rank is further divided into nine stages. Lian Ri's current level has reached the rank of Grand Master, excelling in both martial prowess and exorcism abilities.
Congratulations to my junior sister on her progress in cultivation!
Deng, the master, smiled and gestured for Lianyi to take a seat, then continued:
"Junior Sister, this is because your cultivation has improved, so you want to take on a mission"
"Yeah! I guess it's still best to put it into practice."
The ripples didn't deny it.
"Okay, I'm giving you this mission. I'll also assign you an assistant."
Dang Guangxia sent the official invitation information to Lianyi, preparing to choose another companion for her.
"Senior brother, no need! This time I want to go alone."
Ripple refused to say.
"This won't do. Our Longmenshan disciples always take on official missions in pairs. If you go alone and something happens, there won't be anyone to assist you."
Tang Guangxia refused to say.
"Senior brother, you don't seem to have faith in me! I haven't even gone yet, and you're already worried about me having problems."
A ripple of a smile rose on her lips.
"I'm just saying hypothetically, I'm not doubting you."
Ripple didn't say a word. He just reached into the void and pulled out a palm-sized array, handing it to Deng Guangxia.
"Brother, without a diamond like the Vajra, don't take on tasks that are beyond your capabilities. When I say one person can handle it, I'm not exaggerating."
Tang Guangxia was clearly stunned by Lian Yi's move of remote control. Especially after seeing the array she handed him, his eyes lit up instantly and he said:
"Junior sister, have you made another breakthrough in the Art of Formation"
"Well, I want to ask my senior brother to help me find some good materials, otherwise, I can't withstand the power of the array I'm carving."
"Alright, this is your brother's responsibility!"
Tang Guangxia reluctantly handed the game board back to Lianyi, and didn't mention arranging companions for her again.
"Senior brother, don't be envious. As long as you find the right materials, I can make this portable formation disk. Everyone can carry two for self-defense when going out on missions."
Ripple smiled and promised.
Okay, it'll be hard work for you then. This is good stuff, make them give you good things in exchange. Just tell me what you need, and I'll have them keep an eye out for it.
Dang Guangxia doesn't think Lian Yi needs to work for free for Lung Hu Men to make the formation plate. That wouldn't be fair to her younger sister, but if they exchange things that her younger sister needs, everyone gets what they need, and it's fair to everyone.
That settled it. The next day, after Ripple went down the mountain, there was a black SUV waiting for her.
"Hello, Wu Tian Shi!"
The man who came to pick up the ripples stepped forward and shook her hand, then politely invited her into his car.
Ripples glanced at the other person, said nothing, nodded and got in the car.
Judging by their demeanor, things seem worse than they let on. Otherwise, they wouldn't have skipped the pleasantries and gone straight to business.
And the person coming should have spent some time in that cemetery, carrying a chill. It's just because their profession is special, giving them an aura of righteousness that suppresses it for now. However, over time, who knows what will happen
After getting in the car, the other person handed the latest information to Ripples and said in a low voice:
"Master Wu, in order to excavate the tomb complex, we also dispatched a squad of soldiers, but they lost contact after entering."
Ripples received the data passed by the other party and gave the other party a talisman folded into a triangle.
"Carrying this with you, the gloom about you is rather heavy."
The man's heart skipped a beat. He immediately thanked Ripples and, after taking the talisman, carefully tucked it into his chest pocket.
For the next hour, Lian Ri was carefully studying the data, focusing mainly on the tombs already excavated by the archaeological team and their proposed structure of the burial complex.
When she stepped out of the car, the ripples had already given her a general sense of the cemetery. Then, she was immediately led to a helicopter by the man.
"Master Wu, the matter is rather urgent, so I need to send you there as soon as possible."
"I understand! Let's go!"
Ripple, without being theatrical, boarded the helicopter first. Before the aircraft started, she said to the man:
After you arrive at the destination, have your colleagues circle the area where they found the cemetery. I want to see the lay of the land.
Okay, no problem!But because of the dense and sharp deadly threads, the moment a rat fell, it turned into a lifeless corpse. These mutated rats came swarming from all directions, desperately trying to slow Ripple's st...
