Chapter 1360
The voice that came from the depths of the passage, caused Henry to jolt suddenly with surprise.
Ranjeet stared at Henry with his jaw wide open. "Bro, they just said Sylvia, isn't that the one..."
"Come on, let's go check it out!" Henry sprinted right into the passage as quickly as he could.
The damp and gloomy passage gradually widened. Sounds of fighting rang out in front of Henry the whole time, which was where the voices of the people that had just spoken came from. However, the sound of fighting always sounded so far away from Henry. While Henry ran towards the sounds, the sounds also seemed to retreat as they fought, making Henry completely unable to get close to them.
Along the way, a dead body appeared before them, stopping Ranjeet and Yaffah, who followed behind Henry, in their tracks. Right next to the body lay two Puppet Fighters. The bodies of the Puppet Fighters were also torn apart, and two deep claw marks could be seen on the bodies of the Puppet Fighters. It looked like the work of some monster.
"Ranjeet, something isn't right." Yaffah said as she stared at the Puppet Fighter on the ground, her brows furrowed slightly.
"There is someone specifically taking down the Puppet Fighters of our ancestral grounds." Ranjeet noticed it too.
Yaffah said, "It was once said that a monster had appeared in the lake. It had a massive body and long claws, but we have never found any traces of that monster. Could it be possible that the monster has been hiding here all the while?"
"That's seems very likely." Ranjeet nodded.
While Ranjeet and Yaffah were still making guesses, Henry's voice sounded from the front, not too far away from them.
"There's no need to keep guessing. It's the work of the Alvin League."
Both Ranjeet and Yaffah's gaze shifted immediately to Henry.
"Look over here." Henry pointed to his feet.
Yaffah and Ranjeet ran over to Henry immediately and saw a human-shaped monster lying under Henry's feet. The monster was two meters long, with powerful limbs and long claws. Its claws matched as the claw marks on the puppet fighter's body. The head of the monster looked like an erected head of a wolf. The overall appearance of the monster was just like the werewolves that existed in Western legends, which were covered with all over with hair.
"That's exactly the monster they had talked about!" Yaffah exclaimed when she saw the corpse of the werewolf. "Some people had said that they had seen a half-man, half-wolf monster in the lake."
Henry snorted, "This is obviously the work of the Alvin League. It seems that they know very well what lies within your ancestral grounds and have already thought of a way to deal with it. For experimental subjects of this grade, the Alvin League could obviously mass produce them. I am afraid that there are possibly many more of such monsters in here."
Ranjeet trembled with fear. "It could even tear up the Puppet Fighters like that, we've got to be extra careful. We wouldn't even know how we would have died if we were unfortunate enough to be surrounded by them."
Henry nodded. His movements were not as daring as it had been earlier. He asked Ranjeet, "Where is the end of the passage? Are there many other passages such as this in here? "
Ranjeet nodded and replied, "This place can only be entered from the centre of the lake. There are hundreds of entrances, and several entrances can be merged together, just like how we had met earlier. These passages all lead to the centre, which is where my ancestors had stored their treasures. However, the deeper we go, the more Puppet Fighters there will be, some are strong and some are weak. The Puppet Fighter you had encountered just now is not the strongest."
After hearing that from Ranjeet, Henry finally understood the situation of the ancestral grounds. He was no longer in such a hurry. As long as those people who had spoken just now did not die, he would eventually meet them at the end and be clear about what it was that Sylvia had taken from them.
However, because of the emergence of the monsters, Henry's team slowed down their pace a lot, and would carefully observe their surroundings after they had travelled a certain distance, in order to prevent themselves from being ambushed by those monsters. They were unable to use their Qi, and in the possible event of finding themselves surrounded by those werewolves, they would risk a very high possibility of danger.
As they delved deeper onward, the path before them seemed to widen increasingly. At the same time, more and more lifeless bodies appeared before them, some were Qi- practitioners, some were Puppet Fighters, and some were monsters.
However, it was obvious that the remains of the Puppet Fighter were far greater than that of the monsters, which proved that the monster was obviously stronger than the Puppet Fighter in terms of individual combat ability.
Henry noticed that the light emitted from the ring in his pocket had grown stronger, as it was responding to something in the depths of the Loulan ancestral grounds.
While Henry stared at the ring in his hand, a ray of light suddenly shone on him.
At that moment, three figures charged directly at Henry, all of whom were Puppet Fighters with curved swords in their hands.
The three Puppet Fighters slashed at Henry from three different directions at once. It was strike that was meant to killing.
Henry moved instantly and dodged the combined attacks of the Puppet Fighters.
The lights shone on Ranjeet and Yaffah in the next second. When the lights shone on them, both of their appearances were revealed. However, the person operating in the dark did not stop instructing the Puppet Fighters to attack, which meant that the person behind it was not a member of Loulan.
Anyone who paid enough attention could figure out the how to control the Puppet Fighter.
"Show yourself!" Henry shouted. It was easy to trace where the source of light came from in that dark environment.
Henry, who practiced the World Destruction Technique, was physically much stronger than the ordinary. He took a few leaps and found the source of the light. Two figures, a man and a woman, appeared in Henry's sight.
Henry did not waste any time with nonsense. He shot out at them with both of his fists. Just when the man and the woman could react, Henry's fists were just milliseconds away from them.
In the face of absolute power, both figures connected heavily with Henry's fists, and were instantly sent flying backwards with blood spraying from their mouths.
Henry approached them in a single stride, and grabbed them by their necks and shouted, "Which force do you belong to? Why did you try to kill us?" "Fools." The man wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Everyone who showed up here are all after the inheritance of the Loulan. Every one here is a potential enemy, what other goal could there be?"
The woman was also very tenacious. "We have fallen into your hands because we are weak. Just kill us if that's what you want, we don't care."
Henry smiled and said, "Very well, I admire your strong-wills."
The man and the woman exchanged looks, wanting to find an opportunity to fight back, but in the next second, the eyes of them both widened. Henry crushed their necks easily with a simple clench of his hands.
"Sadly, having just a strong-will isn't enough to save your lives." Henry shook his head and tossed the two corpses aside.
Without the rays of light, the Puppet Fighters that had attacked Ranjeet and Yaffah also stopped moving completely.
Fear still lingered in Ranjeets heart, his face still visibly frightened. "Holy sh*t, these Puppet Fighters are just too strong. Who on earth designed them? They are just too dangerous!"
Henry picked up the flashlight that a man and woman had dropped onto the ground. "Better be more careful. The method of controlling your Puppet Fighters is too simple, they could easily be manipulated by others. We have to be extremely careful from now on."
