Chapter 1039 - Chapter 1039 Chapter 320 The Golden Bug and the Moon Wheel

Chapter 1039: Chapter 320 The Golden Bug and the Moon Wheel Chapter 1039: Chapter 320 The Golden Bug and the Moon Wheel Leonard Churchill carefully examined the golden sarcophagus but, finding no mechanisms, he chose to stand where Wayne White had previously stood.

The angel’s head was still floating in mid-air, and although it showed no hostility, Leonard informed it courteously, “Senior, I hope you’ll excuse the interruption…”

As he spoke and saw no reaction from the angel, he proceeded to approach.

The lid of the sarcophagus was flipped over on the ground, revealing an empty interior that was instantly visible.

A pottery jar with hollowed-out carvings, a solid gold human-shaped coffin.

And a large amount of black crystal clusters.

Nothing else.

When Leonard looked inside, he just so happened to see some sort of golden soft-bodied creature wriggling in the jar.

“A living creature?”

Leonard was quite surprised, instinctively on alert, as the scalpel floating beside him was immediately pointed at the creature.

Any living creature in an ancient tomb thousands of years old could be extremely dangerous.

Upon closer inspection, it was a pure gold tentacled soft-bodied worm.

[Golden Omen Brain-eating Worm Queen]

Explanation: A mythical creature that has survived for over five thousand years; hermaphroditic, it can infinitely breed eggs, parasitizing the brains of intelligent beings and controlling its hosts; epic mental series material;

“The original source is here…”

Seeing the enlightenment’s content, Leonard had already guessed something.

The air in the entire tomb was full of worm eggs that originated from this golden brain-eating worm.

Having such a worm queen in the imperial mausoleum by the tomb’s designer would be enough to solve the problem of most intruders.

Leonard had come across a description of this mythical creature in ancient texts before; it physically parasitizes hosts, but the worm itself has no combat power.

However, seeing the introduction of “epic-quality material,” his eyes lit up.

Leonard had spent no short amount of time with Master Merlin and had learned much about Card Making.

In theory, any substance with extraordinary traits can be used as material for a card master’s Profession Cards.

Moreover, the effects of the material would carry some abilities of its original form.

Since this golden bug could serve as material, Leonard immediately thought of its parasitic and terrifying group mind control abilities, pondering, “If this worm were made into a Profession Card, might it grant the ability to control group thinking?”

If that were the case, he did indeed have some ideas.

However, “epic-quality” material required at least a seventh-tier to use.

It was too high-end, and he had no use for it at present.

A thought flashed through Leonard’s mind, and he didn’t dwell on it.

He thought he would just show it to Master Merlin later and find out.

He took out a culture dish specifically for collecting live samples and secured the worm inside.

In a moment, Leonard turned his attention to the golden human-shaped coffin.

…

Since it was confirmed to be a “Suspicion Tomb,” the inner coffin would certainly not be the King of Augustus.

Leonard suspected that there probably was another trap for tomb robbers inside, certainly entailing something terrifying.

What the brain-eating worms couldn’t handle, perhaps the occupant of this coffin would.

If the coffin had been intact, Leonard definitely would not have opened it rashly.

But now, there was already a gap in the inner coffin, and a glimpse of silver could be faintly seen.

Furthermore, just as Leonard looked over, enlightenment appeared again: “You have been exempted from one faith contamination directed toward the Lord of Dreams and Pleasure, Arachne…”

“Is there a Silver Moon Believer inside this coffin?”

Leonard was a bit surprised, but after a bit of thought, it made sense.

In the latter period of the Taren Dynasty, the ancient god Arachne was indeed the Empress.

It wasn’t strange for there to be a Silver Moon Believer in the mausoleum of Augustus.

Moreover, it wasn’t an ordinary believer, since simply looking would contaminate one; the individual inside the coffin must have been of a very high tier in the past.

But since the coffin lid had already been opened, and the being inside hadn’t emerged, Leonard actually already guessed the outcome.

“Was the energy absorbed by the angel’s head?”

Leonard understood by now.

The curse on the coffin was complicated, but he understood some of the simple spells, related to “faith convergence,” “energy storage,” “internal circulation,” “nurturing,” and other terms.

Leonard guessed that as long as the Silver Moon Believers contributed faith, it could converge here, continuously powering the coffin.

The tomb’s designer probably intended for the occupant of the coffin to protect the mausoleum for thousands, maybe tens of thousands of years after death.

Unfortunately.

The lid being opened broke the structure.

Three thousand years passed, and the residual divinity contamination in the coffin was very weak, no longer a threat.

This scene was much like the one in Summer Shepherd City before.

Part of an angel’s remains had absorbed the faith power of the Silver Moon Outer God.

Meaning, there were people who didn’t want the Silver Moon Church to re-emerge.

Since the Guardian Angel had been killed by the ancestors of Tracy Garcia, and the head was here, it was probably also placed by that person.

With this thought, Leonard grew bolder, carefully manipulating his shadow to slip into the coffin through the gap.

He confirmed there was no danger.

Inside was a mummy already decayed to dust.

And next to the mummy, there was a metallic object emitting moonlight even in the darkness.

The contamination just now came from this object.

Leonard fully opened the coffin lid, and a crescent-shaped weapon came into view.
