Not only was it this corpse, but the other two armored soldiers were also the same. They became three sets of armor in an instant. There was not even a trace of a human left, let alone a zombie.
"Could it be that this is some kind of secret technique of the Witch Clan?" Sikong Banyu frowned. His eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of an area on the remaining armor that was slowly moving. He was startled and quickly took two steps back. Finally, he was able to see that thing clearly.
It was a fist-sized, completely black worm with eight legs and a protruding back. There were two blade-like tentacles on its mouth, emitting a strong stench.
"This is …" "What?" Hiss hiss … Sikong Banyu couldn't help but suck in a cold breath when he saw the object. At the same time, he hurriedly retreated a few meters away from the object, as he finally understood, the three Guardian Armors were actually not zombies, but rather the control of these bugs.
They lived off corpses, so they would live off corpses and specifically eat rotten meat. The creation of these corpse worms were extremely harsh, and only on the battlefield, in places where no one cleaned the battlefield, where corpses piled up like mountains, would there be an existence.
And this was an extremely terrifying creature. There was a poison in its body that could induce illusions within a certain distance, and at the same time, this poison would cause a person to slowly die in the illusion for a short period of time. It would either commit suicide or drown in the illusion and so on, it was extremely dangerous. The other scary thing about these worms was that they didn't stop until they were dead. They had a long lifespan, but they couldn't live for long, because they ate rotting meat until it was full to the point of death.
That was why Liu Zongyuan had recorded the existence of this kind of insect under his brush. It was called Legend of Earth, but in his essay, it became a symbol of greed, not mentioning the corpse worm, but rather a bug that carried a heavy weight on its back. When it came across something heavy, it would carry it on its back until it was crushed to death. After all, the birth of a Corpse Worm was really hard to come by, so it couldn't be found in the articles.
And in the Vermillion Bird Continent, Sikong Banyu was familiar with this type of environment. He had seen it several times, and it was a social animal with terrifying strength. He didn't dare to easily provoke it.
"Hiss …" It seemed that a lot of people had died in Lv Weihu's mausoleum! Otherwise, it wouldn't have appeared. It's just that Blackwater said that Lv Weihu was brought here to be buried after he died. Even as Wu Tie's number one general, it was impossible for him to reach the level of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood while accompanying someone in death, right? What exactly is going on? "
Sikong Banyu was very confused. This tomb was too weird. He didn't really care before, but now, he felt a little uneasy. Especially this one. According to Sikong Banyu's understanding, after this growth, as they ate the rotten meat, they would constantly die, but there was a small portion that survived and became stronger. There were King bugs over there, and no matter if it was the ability or intelligence, it was terrifying.
Every time it appeared, the King's Worm would appear. Moreover, this Lv Weihu's Tomb had continued from Ancient Times until now. If the Wang Worm appeared during that period, Sikong Banyu had no way of imagining how far it would grow after so many years.
"Although it is not easy to deal with, this is not necessarily a bad thing. At the very least, not many people can pass through Lv Weihu's tomb. Therefore, the things inside should be perfectly preserved." Sikong Banyu's gaze was fixed on the three orbs that crawled out. As long as he stared at them, he would be able to find the exit.
With Lv Weihu's mausoleum guarding it, there shouldn't be many people that could barge in. Sikong Banyu could clearly see how terrifying it was. As an ancient Senior Magus, Lv Weihu, there were definitely many good things inside the mausoleum. In his current state, as long as he could obtain a few, it would be enough, but danger and chance existed. Moreover, he didn't know if there were any more terrifying things within Lv Weihu's mausoleum.
After the three of them climbed out of the armor, they rapidly headed towards the passageway that was sealed by huge rocks. They climbed back and forth in front of the wall a few times.
"Eh?" Sikong Banyu paused for a moment and quickly walked over to take a look. If the spot that disappeared was just a wall and there weren't any holes, then how did it disappear, could it be that it could teleport?
He paused for a moment, took out the dagger that was full of holes, and gently probed the place that had disappeared, but … A strange thing happened. The dagger sank into the wall as if the wall was an illusion and was not real at all.
He decided not to withdraw the dagger but to continue to explore deeper. However, the illusory depth of this wall was too deep. The dagger was simply unable to probe to the bottom.
Sikong Banyu also discovered that the area of this illusory wall was only the size of a fist, the rest of it was solid. It was as if some hidden mechanism or formation had caused the current situation.
"Could this be the mechanism?" He walked over and picked up one of the halberds, then walked back and inserted the halberd into the illusory wall. When the halberd was about to reach the halfway mark, suddenly, Sikong Banyu felt that the halberd in his hand was stuck in a groove, unable to move at all.
"As expected …" Seeing this, Sikong Banyu revealed a look of joy. This was indeed the location of the mechanism. He turned around and looked at the two halberds on the ground. It seemed that there were three guards here.
