1582 Skeleton Mummy (1/2)

Edited by Aelryinth

”Let's go! Run! Don't even bother fighting it!” Meos was the first to shout.

Any formations or plans were just nonsense now. The door was open. Just run!

Heidi was the closest to the door, behind the mummy.

”Go to the spot I've marked!” Heidi told the others.

The rest of the team quickly shifted there. Silver rays of light intertwined and quickly formed a Star Constellation for a Blink.

”Get on the ride, quick!” Mo Fan yelled at Mu Bai.

Mu Bai sped himself up and barely reached the Star Constellation before the last Star Pattern was constructed. The silver light left crystalline particles behind after it vanished into thin air. The particles slowly fell in the air and dispersed before reaching the ground.

The next second, the area two hundred meters away rippled slightly. Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, Mu Bai, Meos, Shreev, and Sayed appeared simultaneously. Mo Fan was already Channeling a Blink, completing it at an impressive speed.

The six Blinked away once again, traveling one hundred and sixty meters further away. They quickly shifted past the mummy and moved closer to the door.

”I'll try and stop...” Zhao Manyan was still willing to step forward in crucial times. He knew the Ruler-level creature was not going to let them leave so easily.

He was just about to cast his defensive spells to brace himself for the Ruler-level creature's ruthless attacks, but to his surprise, the mummy didn't chase after them, it had only turned around. Its hollow eyes still had the same terrifying glow.

But... it did not attack. It simply stared at them, leaving the others feeling very uneasy...

”Is it not going to attack?” Zhao Manyan blurted out in surprise.

”Maybe it hasn't fully woken up yet. Forget about it, just run!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

Zhao Manyan thought about it for a second; a normal person's mind would stay blank for a few minutes after waking up for a nap. The mummy might have been sleeping for a few thousand years. It was understandable if its mind happened to go blank...

As for the words it said, perhaps it was just sleep-talking!

The white-shrouded Mummy did not stop them. It watched Mo Fan and the others flee toward the door with a dark expression.

The group Blinked even further away from the Mummy, going through the opening. Mu Bai quickly glanced behind as a safety precaution, and noticed that the Ruler-level Mummy was still in the same spot. It seemed to be waiting for something. Somehow, he found it hard to believe they had managed to escape from it after seeing the calm look on its face...

The door led them into a dark passage. The passage was not too long. It began to turn after they ran along it for a minute or so.

”Did it chase us?” Meos gasped in disbelief.

”No.”

”That's strange...”

The group was still worrying about the Ruler-level Mummy when they all came to a stop after reaching the end of the passage. They looked around them curiously.

Another chamber!

This chamber had the layout as the one before. Everyone subconsciously glanced at the center of it. They were afraid to see an open coffin with a white Mummy standing beside it.

Luckily, it was not another Looping Space. The chamber was different. There was no sign of the shrouded Mummy, either. They only saw a pile of bones at the center of the chamber!

They realized the pile of bones was actually made up of human skulls as they drew closer to it. The eerie sight of white skulls and their empty sockets immediately gave everyone goosebumps!
