Chapter 1030: Chapter 317: Gold Coffin, Dark Crystal, Stone Monument_2
The specifications of this tomb were extremely high, and naturally, the accompanying burial objects would not disappoint.
Just the burial accompaniments alone amounted to a huge harvest.
The adventurers were thrilled, picking up items along the way, stuffing their Storage Rings to the brim, and hanging bars of gold and silver jewelry on themselves.
However, Prince Salo had little interest in these vulgar treasures of gold and silver; he ordered everyone to keep moving deeper.
The team of thousands stretched out long, with Leonard Churchill blending into the middle of the procession, staying close to Elder Clinton.

But the corridor seemed endless, as though one could walk and never reach its end.
After seemingly covering several kilometers and descending several hundred meters, someone finally noticed something was amiss.
Suddenly, someone shouted sharply, stopping the advance of the team, “Your Highness the Prince, we seem to have entered a cyclical labyrinth!”
The team included professional adventurers skilled in exploration, and breaking labyrinths was their specialty.
They also realized that the corridors had begun to repeat at the first opportunity.
That meant, they had returned to a certain starting point.
With that revelation, the crowd instantly became agitated.
Leonard Churchill was not the least bit surprised in his heart.
Because he had noticed it long ago.
He was all too familiar with this environment.
The dark cyan thick earthen walls surrounding them, the architectural style, wasn’t this the maze corridor from the “Grand Cemetery Labyrinth”?
However, there were differences.
Leonard Churchill remembered every single path he had taken in the previous labyrinth, yet he hadn’t seen any scenes from his memory here.
This was not the labyrinth he was familiar with.
In fact, from the beginning, he had a feeling that this was not the King’s Mausoleum of Augustus.
But such standards, even a prince wouldn’t have the qualification to build.
If it was not the tomb of the King of Augustus, then what could it be?
…
The Trial Group heard they were trapped, and there was a slight panic among the adventurers.
However, Prince Salo, the temporary leader of the team, wasn’t concerned at all.
If finding the King of Augustus’s Mausoleum had been this easy, that would have been suspicious.
On the contrary, a bit of crisis seemed more logical.
Moreover, this was an Extraordinary World, and it was only natural for a tomb to have maze mechanisms.
Besides, just a maze, no matter how intricate, could never really trap them.
Leonard Churchill thought so too.
Prince Salo waved his hand authoritatively, ordering, “Continue the exploration.”
The mercenaries, hearing this, dared not say anything.
With His Highness the Prince present, their less valuable lives seemed to have nothing to worry about.
However, the adventurers no longer dared to run about aimlessly, mostly gathering around the three young nobles.
Compared to the tense mercenaries, Prince Salo, Princess Betty, and that Kelly appeared much more composed.
Their insights and strength were the backbone of facing any crisis.
“Salo, what exactly is going on here?”
“It looks like a royal tomb from the Talun Era, it’s just unclear which royal it belonged to. This is the first time someone has discovered a tomb of this scale on the Old Continent. The trial or whatever isn’t important now. If we can find some relics or heirlooms of the Royal Family, our trial results will definitely not be bad…”
“That’s true.”
“…”
Leonard Churchill followed behind, listening to the conversation between the three.
He also pretty much confirmed that aside from Salo, the other two didn’t know the situation of this tomb.
The team continued to walk through the corridor without encountering any danger.
Leonard Churchill observed as he walked; his Deductive Abilities now were dozens of times more active than before, and he also saw some tricks within the maze.
But there was no need for him to pipe up with a reminder.
There were many adventurers in the team proficient in solving puzzles.
Soon, the maze’s Restriction was naturally broken.
It was just a moving maze that wasn’t particularly tricky; after blocking several key intersections, it was no longer infinitely cyclical.
However, they hadn’t found the way out.
Rather, they discovered a huge space.
“The main burial chamber is found!”
Someone in the front excitedly shouted.
Leonard Churchill heard this and became even more cautious.
Found it so easily?
And once again, he noticed that Elder Clinton, as if having a premonition of some misfortune, had already shrunk into a corner.
…
Prince Salo led the bulk of the troops into a vast space.
Structured like a vertical shaft, the people appeared on the half-way point of the walls.
A hundred meters below, there was a massive space the size of several football fields.
Upon entering, as if walking into a cold storage, they were assailed by a chill so biting it seemed to shiver their souls.
A glance around revealed an expanse engulfed in Death Air.
At the bottom of the pit, the ground was covered in a thick layer of mist resembling a black blanket, obscuring any view of what lay on the floor.
Nevertheless, everyone’s gaze was drawn to the center of the space, to that colossal golden coffin!
The coffin was carved with ancient and mystical Curse inscriptions, luminous without external light. The Magic Lamp shone upon it, causing mysterious patterns to flow on its surface, along with the dazzling light of Seven-colored Gemstones.
Gigantic, heavy, luxurious, and noble!
A grandeur that was visibly indescribable emanated from it.
There the golden coffin lay, like a sovereign ruler.
From a high vantage point, the most eye-catching feature was the totem engraved on the coffin lid.
An eagle-headed humanoid crowned with a royal diadem, holding a Treasure Bead in the left hand and a Holy Sword in the right, with the Holy Grail floating beside…
Leonard Churchill also recognized it at a glance, the pattern of the Four Great Sovereignty Sacred Artifacts!
Upon seeing this scene, nearly everyone recognized it, “The Eagle god Totem of the Augustus Royal Family!”
This was the oldest emblem of the Taren Dynasty.
Only the true emperors of the Augustus lineage could make use of it, representing the supreme totem of Kingship.
