Chapter 1150 The Beginning of the Inheritance
Chapter 1150 The Beginning of the Inheritance
After a few moments, Minos' group reached the Walker family crypt, where the statue of the Goddess of Life that Minos and Abby had seen earlier stood.
The place looked as it had before, without any transformation. Even the dust in the surroundings was the same as when the two had passed in this place.
But that was expected. After all, people rarely entered that place, and since Wilfred would not have dared to start such a thing without Minos' presence, he had not yet returned to that place since that time.
"Oh? Is there something like that in this region?" Gloria observed the area with interest, noticing some molds and inscriptions that looked like very high-level people had made them.
"Yes, not everything left in this region was taken, discovered, or collected during the Great Migration," Minos commented.
He then turned to his queen and asked. "Anyway, Abby, are you ready?"
"Hmmm." She nodded with a smile on her face, eager to sort this out.
On the other hand, Wilfred approached that statue, also full of curiosity as to what would happen next.
He was the first in his family to complete the minimum requirements to move forward with the tests left by this inheritance. So, naturally, there was a certain sense of pride in his being and determination to achieve something for his family.
'Finally!' He clenched his fists, ready to get on with the procedure necessary to start with this event.
"Well, according to the instructions in this place, all we have to do is infuse our energies into this statue, and it will teleport us into the interior of the Secret Tomb." Wilfred said to the two, waiting for Minos' order.
Upon hearing that, Minos stood behind Abby, hugging his queen's body as he spread his energies around her.
He was also a candidate for this inheritance, but in addition to not having a Saint-grade Physique, he ran the risk of being teleported to a different place than his wife. Since he wanted to avoid this at all costs, Minos soon connected his and Abby's bodies with his energy, something he knew was effective due to memories of Henricus Longus.
"Comfortable, dear?" Abby blinked at him as she looked back, feeling good to be enveloped by her man.
"Hmmm, you can start now. I'm ready." He said as he also prepared to send some of his energy into that statue.
So, the three individuals did what they were supposed to do, infusing fractions of their powers into that thing, causing it to begin to glow.
As the statue seemed to be coming to life, the Spatial Kingdom ring in one of Minos' hands shook briefly, spreading a semi-transparent mist over him and Abby.
With that, the statue changed position, making symbols with its hands while creating wormholes under Abby and Wilfred.
The moment the darkness of the wormholes appeared on the ground, the three individuals fell through, quickly disappearing from that area.
After that, the statue made symbols similar to the previous ones before finally returning to its position, while the wormholes disappeared as if they had never been there.
"It started..." Gloria commented to Ruth as she looked around for any change.
Wilfred's mother then commented. "Now, it will be a few months before the tests are finished. So, we'd better not wait for them here..."
"No, let's watch for a little longer," Gloria commented when she finally saw one of the walls starting to glow.
She had never been in an inheritance like this before. But she knew how tests similar to this worked. After all, the Spiritual Church had all kinds of information about the Spiritual World!
So, she already knew they would be able to follow Minos and Abby's journey to some degree.
"That..." Blake looked at his stepmother in doubt, not understanding what was happening.
At that instant, a blackboard with four dots appeared on that glowing wall.
Of these dots, three were red, and one was gold. Two of them were together. One was alone near one end of the square area, with the golden one alone in the middle of that area.
...
While the people outside the Secret Tomb were watching the board that appeared on that glowing wall, Minos and Abby were falling through a dark, cold tunnel.
"Minos, I wonder what this is?" Abby asked as she saw that darkness that seemed to be an absence of light and a strange fluid.
"That is a space path created by the wormhole, and this black stuff is decompressed space. When a wormhole is created, it creates a special region in space." Minos began to explain. "Think of space as a sheet of paper. The wormhole creates a unique path through that paper, connecting two different places."
"But space is not a piece of paper since it has several dimensions and is infinite..." As he said this, the two finally got 'spat' out by the wormhole into a shady place that looked like a cemetery.
As they fell from the sky towards the ground, Minos quickly used his flight skill to slow their fall while slowly landing.
As he did so, Abby observed the surroundings, the stars in the sky, while feeling the windy surroundings, the light temperature of the place, and the eerie silence.
'I'm glad Minos came with me. This place looks strange...' She felt safe as she lay in her man's arms.
Minos also observed the surroundings, having paid attention to the many graves in that cemetery that seemed to have no boundaries.
'What is this place? There seems to be a lot of negative feelings around here...' So, he felt something easy to notice as he had already killed enough to feel some emotions.
The moment their feet touched the ground, stronger winds formed while strange sounds came from the direction of one of the graves near them.
Then the steel plate on top of that grave was kicked off by what was inside it, making such a thing fly for dozens of meters.
Minos and Abby then saw the skeleton rise from its own grave while it still had its low-level grade-3 silver armor on its body.
It stood in the middle of that grave, looking in Abby and Minos' direction, while its neck was slightly bent to the right side as if it was in doubt.
"You shouldn't be here..." It opened its jaw, and, unbelievably, a voice came out, even though he did not have the muscles to do so.
"Does he talk?" Abby swallowed her saliva in surprise.
"Hmmm," Minos stated as he looked at that creature. "Are you talking about me? Why shouldn't I be here?"
"Yes, you don't seem right... I feel strange to you. You don't seem to have been chosen by the Goddess." So, it said, but it did not show any hostility. Not because it was nice, but because it felt a terrifying sensation coming from one of Minos' fingers, something even more shocking than the power of the Goddess.
"What about her?" Minos pointed to the woman in his arms.
"She's all right. She has the mark the Goddess said her representative would have." The skeleton walked out of its grave.
"So, what do we do? I will not leave, nor will I part with her." Minos' eyes narrowed as his killing intent spread to his surroundings.
After sensing that, that skeleton's jaw nearly dropped to the ground, feeling terrible. 'All this? That person has killed at least a hundred thousand people!''
'How can that be? A mere level 60 Spiritual Emperor who looks so young could do that? Don't tell me he's been killing since he came out of his mother's womb?' The skeleton wondered in doubt as it knelt in front of Abby.
