Chapter 414
Danielâs grandson was Ethan.
He was upset as well that none of the missing people were found.
However, there was not much that he could do.
âFind them? How are we supposed to find them? Weâve been looking in the mountains for seven hours, and we couldnât even find a single trace of them!â
Daniel stretched his neck, his muscles rippling as he slowly clapped his hands.
The seventh and eighth people from the Xalderon lineage immediately walked over.
These people had round waists and thick arms with strength beyond ordinary people.
The person who had just spoken gulped.
He looked at the others who had spoken as if he wanted them to stand up and seek justice with him.
However, they just turned their attention elsewhere.
It was obvious that none of them wanted to go against the Xalderon lineage.
Professor Law looked at the dead body with the bullet hole between his eyebrows, frowned, and asked, âWas there anyone else in the mountains?â
Old Hereraâs eyes were sinister. âYes. Not only did they destroy our drones, but they killed one of our men⦠They also took his communicator!â
Professor Law frowned and said, âYoseph is in the National Archaeological Team. Itâs obvious that this type of work isnât Yosephâs⦠He also promised not to leak news about the tomb of the King of Medicine⦠This must be Professor Perryâs doing!â
âBradley Perryâ¦â
âIs it possible that Bradley kidnapped our grandchildren?â
Daniel clenched his fists, emitting an evil aura.
Once upon a time, he had suffered at the hands of Bradley.
Professor Law pondered aloud, âItâs unlikely⦠The Tomb Whisperer Lineage has rules⦠They wonât attack innocent people in a fight unless their lives are threatened, and they wonât easily resort to violence if their lives arenât in dangerâ¦â
Someone snorted. âThe Youngâs are history. The Tomb Whisperer Lineage is long gone too. Do you think heâd still follow their rules?â
Professor Law wanted to explain something but stayed silent.
He used to be a member of the Tomb Whisperer Lineage, and now, he was working with them.
In the eyes of the others, Anders was an outsider. No matter what he said, they would not believe him.
âOld Herera, I think we should go to the tomb immediately!â
âBradley and his men are already on the mountain! If they enter the tomb of the King of Medicine before we do, then all will be in vain!â
âAlso, whoâs to say Gary and the others havenât already found the tomb and entered it?â
Although Daniel was muscular, he had a calm personality.
Old Herera was deep in thought before turning to Professor Law and asking, âProfessor Law, what do you think?â
After all, Anders was part of the Tomb Whisperer Lineage that had passed down thousands of years of knowledge. Their intel was greater than the nine major raider families.
Professor Law said solemnly, âI think we should wait for the others to arrive first so that we can all go together⦠According to the Tomb Whisperer Lineageâs record of the tomb of the King of Medicine, before Leopole died, he invited an evil practitionerâ¦
âAnd that practitioner was skilled at crafting shadow corpses. Your hand cannons will have no effect on the shadow corpsesâ¦â
âSo, you mean⦠we need to give up on Zain and the others!â Daniel whispered.
Old Herera closed his eyes and was lost in thought.
The grandchildrensâ fates were uncertain.
Perhaps, as Daniel suggested, they had found the entrance to the tomb of the King of Medicine.
Every minute wasted meant an extra minute of danger for Zain and the others.
However, if they entered the tomb without the items purchased from Madam Lunaris, the entire team might be at risk with no chance of return.
âOld Herera⦠we should go to the tomb!â
âYeah! Letâs go. We canât wait any longer!â
âIf you want to wait, then so be it, but I wonât wait any longer! Everyone⦠grab that guy and follow me into the mountains!â
Several old men who had lost their grandchildren spoke one after another. They were unwilling to wait any longer.
Old Herera opened his eyes and said, âOne person from each family will stay behind to watch the ceremony. The rest will
go up the mountain with me and Professor Lawâ¦â
Professor Law sighed helplessly before packing up his things and leaving with them to the mountains.
The main peak of Seven Pinnacle Peaks was located southeast of the foot of the mountain.
Nico imitated what he had seen on TV and said, âIn the search for dragons, one must look closely at the entangled mountains. Each layer of entanglement is a layer of challenge. If the gate is locked a thousand times over, surely kings and nobles reside within!â
His serious expression almost convinced Xeno and Finn.
