Chapter 1199: Awakening

Recruiting the prisoners of Di and Elena came as a surprise for Rhode. It was especially rewarding to have Di by his side. As an undead creature, Di’s research on strengthened undead creatures was relatively helpful for Rhode. One had to understand the enemy in order to defeat the enemy. The Country of Darkness wasn’t the prime target for Rhode, but the lurking Chaos was instead. If he could use Di’s ability to find ways to curb Chaos, it couldn’t get any better.

After taking in both of them, Rhode immediately shifted his attention to their original target, which was the pyramid structure before him. But after taking a closer look at it, he couldn’t help but feel taken aback. The entire structure had been sealed off completely. A heavy stone door blocked the way into the passageway, while surrounding ventilation windows were also plugged. Rhode shifted his gaze to Di and upon detecting his stare, the vampire forced a smile.

“I can’t do anything about it even if you stare at me, Your Majesty Void Dragon. This isn’t our territory, after all. As a matter of fact, we are also trespassing as uninvited guests…”

“Leave it to me, Leader! Watch me crush it open———!”

Before Rhode replied, Mini Bubble Gum clenched her tiny fist and dashed ahead. A holy, white brilliance emanated from her fist, charging up massive energy. In a loud bang, Mini Bubble Gum smashed her fist onto the stone door. But at the next moment, what presented itself before everyone wasn’t the scene of the heavy stone door being crushed to bits. Instead, the young lady knelt on the ground, shivering as she clutched her fist with her other hand.

‘Argh… it hurts so bad…”

Mini Bubble Gum blushed in embarrassment. If it weren’t for the fact that Rhode stood beside her, perhaps she would have cried in pain already. Mini Bubble Gum thought she could shatter the stone door effortlessly, but as soon as her fist came into contact with it, she was stumped to realize that her strength vanished all of a sudden. Be it the coalesced holy power or spiritual spell that she cast on herself, they dissipated thoroughly. Upon detecting this strange phenomenon, it was too late for her to stop…

It was imaginable how painful it was for Mini Bubble Gum, who punched the stone door with all her strength.

“Argh… damn it… why did that happen…”

Mini Bubble Gum gnashed her teeth, stared at her left, swollen fist with tears welled up in her eyes, and barely swung it around. Shortly after, a gentle light descended from above, shrouding the little fellow and healing the sore fist immediately. Mini Bubble Gum stood to her feet and glared at the stone door as though it were her father’s murderer.

“This damn door is just… Damn it! Argh…!”

Mini Bubble Gum snarled and thrust her foot at the stone door. But at the next moment, she winced, hugged her right leg, and hopped about in torment. One had to admit that this little fellow was completely out of luck. Upon witnessing her plight, Canary hurried over to her side and consoled her softly. Rhode shook his head helplessly at this comical scene. Then, he shifted his gaze to the stone door with equal curiosity. Judging from its appearance, it didn’t seem any different from ordinary stone doors and there also wasn’t any mysterious aura exuding from it. Despite that, it nullified Mini Bubble Gum’s spiritual spells, which was truly puzzling…

“Let me do it, Big Brother. It can’t be opened that easily.”

At that moment, his younger sister who stood quietly at the side extended her arm and stroked Mini Bubble Gum’s hair. Then, she displayed a gentle smile, sauntering to the stone door. She looked ahead with a gentle gaze and raised the battle ax in her hand.

“———!”

A bright, blue radiance emanated from the battle ax. Along with the emergence of the blue light, the mausoleum trembled as though were resonating with it. Shortly after, a symbol resembling a pair of large dragon wings lit up in the same color, right in the middle of the stone door. The shining brilliance from both sides increased continuously. Looking at this incredible scene, Di and Elena widened their eyes in astonishment. When they first arrived at the mausoleum, they had also investigated the area. But what surprised them was that even though this was a mausoleum, there weren’t any buried corpses. Not only that, but the protector of this mausoleum also wasn’t aware of what exactly was hidden here. And now, this young lady who looked exactly the same as the Void Dragon seemed to be well aware of the situation.

But come to think of it, when did His Majesty Void Dragon have another younger sister?

Rumble…

As the flickering brilliances fused into one, the sealed stone door opened gradually, presenting a hidden passageway to everyone. At this moment, his younger sister lay down the battle ax, lifted her head, and gazed forward in a complicated expression. She blinked, turned around, and smiled at Rhode.

“Let’s go, Big Brother. I can feel it.”

The mausoleum was spacious, cold, and cheerless. Unlike ordinary mausoleums, the surrounding walls here were neither engraved in intricate patterns nor written in texts that recorded and sang the praises of the buried. Apart from the chilly, spiritual torch flames lined across both sides of the walls, there was nothing else. The group entered the stone door, following the young lady’s lead. No one spoke a word, except for Mini Bubble Gum who curled her lips and muttered to herself while staying beside Canary. It was apparent that Mini Bubble Gum was displeased with this mausoleum. If it weren’t for the fact that she would be stopped, perhaps she would have burned down this damn place already.

The inside of the mausoleum looked simple without messy turns and corners. After passing through a narrow corridor, the group arrived at a spacious hall. Judging from the angled walls, it was obvious that this was the inside of the pyramid mausoleum. But come to think of it, the structure of this building couldn’t be simpler. It was almost the same as a toy made up of building blocks.

“Who are you?”

Just as Rhode sized up the empty space curiously, he heard a voice. Shortly after, everyone witnessed a dark elf wrapped in a white robe, sauntering out from the other end. She gazed at the group calmly. Her eyes were filled with unconcealable confusion.

Margaery was puzzled because no one should be able to enter the mausoleum after she sealed it off. This was also why she was able to remain seated and read a book as the group attempted to open the stone door. Even though the mausoleum seemed really simple and quaint, its most unique feature was its ability to defend against all damage. Be it spiritual or magical spells, none of them would work. Once the mausoleum was sealed off, no matter how monstrous one’s strength was, one could forget about causing any damage. But to her great surprise, someone actually unlocked the seal and entered the mausoleum. Margaery sized up the uninvited guests before shifting her gaze to the young lady who stood at the forefront.

“Excuse me, may I know who you are? And why are you here?”

Sizing up the crowd, Margaery asked. Upon hearing her question, Rhode and his younger sister exchanged looks with each other and the latter stepped forth with a gentle smile.

“Are you the current protector of the mausoleum?”

“Ah… Yes. I am Margaery Tyr.”

Even though Margaery didn’t know why the young lady asked this question, she answered respectfully. For some unknown reason, the young lady was obviously younger than Margaery, but the latter felt an overwhelming pressure from her that forced her to respond. Upon hearing Margaery’s answer, the younger sister shut her eyes, wondered in silence, and nodded slightly.

“It has been tough on you, Miss Protector. And now, your duties have officially come to an end… I shall retrieve the item that has been hibernating for a long time. The time to release all the shackles has arrived.”

The young lady said, raising the battle ax high as it emanated a blue brilliance.

“———!”

Just like before, the same blue radiance shone as though resonating with her action. But what surprised everyone was that the brilliance wasn’t limited to only one spot. On the contrary, the entire ceiling, floor, and columns at the sides flickered in the blue radiance. The young lady lifted her head and gazed at the ceiling.

“Awake, my protector…”

Swish———!

As the young lady mumbled to herself, the blue radiance of the room coalesced and gathered behind her abruptly. The light extended, metamorphosing into a pair of enormous dragon wings on her back, expanding magnificently n midair. Then, the glittering light dispersed and the expanded dragon wings folded together, revealing its true appearance.
