Fang Heng and his companions entered the stone chamber and found that the alarm traps had not been triggered, letting out a collective sigh of relief as they slowly approached the coffin in the center of the mausoleum.

The coffin was covered with a dense array of inscriptions.

Trouble.

They couldn’t quite understand it.

Fang Heng furrowed his brow.

The stone slab he carried began to emit a slight warmth.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He took out the slab and looked down at the information displayed on it.

According to the information held by the undead council, the inscriptions on the mausoleum indicated that it housed the remains of a scribe from the Empress’s era, who was responsible for recording the history of the kingdom.

Thus, the undead council believed that the ancient books within the mausoleum were likely related to the Empire.

In the past, when they came here, they had tried to open the coffin, but it was blocked by a mist that prevented them from touching it. They could vaguely see a book inside the coffin but couldn’t reach it.

Fang Heng raised his head and observed the coffin again.

There was now a small opening in it.

It was likely the work of the undead faction.

Fang Heng attempted to push the coffin open.

Indeed.

Inside lay a thick book.

Contrary to what the undead council had described, there was no black fog.

The book had golden edging, its cover a dull gray, and it was mostly closed.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Fang Heng tried to reach in and take the book from the coffin.

Whoosh!

As soon as his hand touched the book, he felt a surge of mental energy pulling at him, causing his mental strength to uncontrollably transform through the ice crystal in his sea of consciousness and quickly get absorbed into the book in his hands.

Fang Heng’s heart raced, he hadn’t even had time to act to stop it when, in the next moment, the absorption force from the book ceased.

The seal on the book’s cover was now unlocked.

[Hint: The player has obtained the item-Empress Persephone’s royal documents.]

Description: Mission item, cannot be placed in the backpack.

Description: The player lacks the relevant skills and cannot obtain more information.

Fang Heng furrowed his brow.

What had just triggered the surge of mental strength?

Was it some sort of identity verification?

If there hadn’t been the ice crystal in the sea of consciousness, perhaps he wouldn’t have been able to open the book at all?

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

As he pondered, he attempted to flip through the pages.

The book was filled with densely written small characters.

He could see the words clearly but didn’t understand their meaning.

He roughly judged that it was likely a language from the era of Empress Persephone.

[Hint: The player has completed the current phase of the mission. Next phase of the mission: Escort triggered.]

Mission requirements: Safely escort the items and information obtained from Empress Persephone’s mausoleum to the undead council.

“Mr. Fang, the mission is complete. Let’s hurry back.”

“Yes, let’s go.”

At that moment, the high-ranking members of the undead council watched through the mirror as Fang Heng successfully retrieved the ancient books, excitement bubbling among them as they began to discuss fervently.

“This is great! The ancient books likely contain records from the Empress’s era, written in a ritualized ancient language. This will greatly aid us in translating the entire linguistic system!”

“With this, we’ll understand what truly happened to Empress Persephone and how she met her end…”

Just as they were engrossed in their discussion, a necromancy instructor quietly reminded them, “Chairman, it seems that Teacher Gu Luo’s group outside the mausoleum has encountered some issues.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Hmm?

Gu Luo?

The ancient instructors, led by Gu Luo, guarding outside the mausoleum had encountered a situation?

Hearing this, the council members shifted their attention through the mirror to Gu Luo and his team outside Empress Persephone’s mausoleum.

Just moments earlier, their focus had been solely on Fang Heng, and they hadn’t noticed that the sky outside the mausoleum was now covered in a faint layer of dark clouds.

Georgi frowned deeply, his gaze fixed on the ominous clouds appearing in the mirror. He said, “This looks like the precursor to a death storm.”

Another high-ranking member of the undead council asked, “What’s going on? Wasn’t it said that the undead storm would remain stable for at least five more days?”

“The death realm storm is very unstable. We’ve only made a preliminary assessment based on a series of data, but it’s not definitive. This kind of situation has occurred a few times before; it could just be a coincidence and might dissipate in a few hours.”

“Hmm…”

Georgi considered it for a moment and nodded, “In any case, for safety’s sake, we should have Fang Heng escort the research items back immediately. It’s crucial to ensure the safety of his team.”

“Understood!”

With safety as their priority, Fang Heng and his companions quickly gathered the items they had collected from Empress Persephone’s mausoleum and made their way to the entrance, where a group of necromancy instructors was waiting. Together, they swiftly returned to the undead council.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The teleportation passage shimmered with dark light.

[Hint: The player is currently in a special state; a maximum of 10 items can be temporarily carried back.]

The game prompt appeared.

Only then did the three realize there were restrictions on bringing items out of the death realm.

Fortunately, the number of items they had gathered was manageable. With each person allowed to carry ten items, they had a total of thirty, which was more than enough.

They quickly divided the items among themselves and stepped into the magic array.

The dark light enveloped them.

When Fang Heng and the others opened their eyes again, they confirmed they had safely returned to the council.

At the entrance, several high-ranking instructors from the undead council personally greeted them, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Li Shaoqiang and the others were taken aback by such high-level treatment, feeling both honored and overwhelmed.

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, they carefully placed the items they had brought back from the death realm onto the research table.

Immediately, the entire high-ranking team of the undead council sprang into action.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

A group of ancient scholars, some hundreds of years old, gathered in the hall, sorting through various materials and researching the properties and effects of the items.

Fang Heng and Li Shaoqiang felt like elementary students in comparison to these ancient beings and naturally couldn’t contribute much.

“Thank you for your hard work. We have prepared meals and a lounge for you; you can leave everything to us”

Fang Heng was taken to the third floor by Ji Xiaobo, where he enjoyed a hearty meal. Meanwhile, the high-ranking members of the undead council used this time to analyze the various items and stone slab information brought back from the mausoleum by the group.

…

After more than three hours of feasting and a brief rest, Fang Heng and his companions were invited back to the council hall by the high-ranking members of the undead council.

Most of the instructors were passionately gathered around research tables, analyzing the various artifacts obtained from Empress Persephone’s mausoleum.

“Fang Heng, we haven’t let you rest properly before calling you back. Unfortunately, there’s some bad news.”

Georgi explained as he personally guided Fang Heng and the others toward the basement where the teleportation instruments were located, “We’ve just collected some data on the periphery of Empress Persephone’s mausoleum and discovered that the death realm storm outside is showing signs of gathering. We anticipate it will intensify rapidly within the next two days. At that point, a large area, including the mausoleum, will be engulfed in a high-strength death realm storm, making it impossible for outsiders to approach.”
