Nine Rings C185

by MarineTL — Chapter 185: The First Watch We found a relatively low spot and helped each other up, pushing and pulling in a clumsy scramble. Despite the undignified process, we finally managed to scale the canal wall, which stood as high as a city rampart. Once I was up, I helped Lu Ayao while scanning our surroundings. The canal stretched out before us, so long that the ends were lost to sight. He Yu leaned in and tapped my shoulder, pointing toward the opposite side. "Look over there. Don't those look like the…

Nine Rings C182

by MarineTL — Chapter 182: Internal Strife He Yu squinted as he leaned in front of me. After observing for a moment, he let out a confused sound. "Huh? That's not right. This doesn't look like it was built with stones. Look at that material—how does it look so much like concrete?" His eyesight had always been excellent, or at least much better than mine. Hearing him say this, I hurriedly leaned into the beam of his flashlight to take a look. Upon closer inspection, I realized He Yu might actually be right this…

Nine Rings C183

by MarineTL — Chapter 183: Analysis Looking back, my words really did have that "waking a dreamer with a single sentence" effect. Everyone's mood was terrible. If I hadn't restrained myself just now, and my first thought after He Yu hit me had been to strike back, we would likely be a tangled mess of limbs fighting in this tunnel right now. The most ridiculous thing wouldn't be getting hurt by an accident, but being beaten senseless by your own teammates and then bleeding out until everyone died here. That…

Nine Rings C181

by MarineTL — Chapter 181: The Wall of the Dead But how could there be people talking inside the walls! The realization made my entire body go rigid. Lu Ayao didn't loosen his grip on me at all, clearly afraid that if my terror reached a certain point, I might bolt and crash into the stone. My eyes had mostly adjusted to the darkness by now. I opened them wide, desperately trying to see if any strange new figures had appeared in the tunnel. Unfortunately, despite my searching, nothing new had emerged. Instead,…

Nine Rings C179

by MarineTL — Chapter 179: The Builder The moment I crawled into the hole, a chilling draft snaked down my collar. I rubbed my arms and scrambled forward a few steps. The interior of the Stone Tortoise Mouth was absolute darkness. I hadn't been crawling long before my flashlight flickered and died. I figured I'd dropped it one too many times; it was about time for it to be scrapped anyway. There were four of us and three flashlights left. Even without mine, I had Lu Ayao's light ahead to guide the way, so I wasn't…

Nine Rings C180

by MarineTL — Chapter 180: Whispers As soon as he said those words, I clearly heard Tian Xiaoqi and He Yu gasp behind me. I was the only one who didn't have much of a reaction; his statement was within my expectations. I had already entertained this hypothesis, though I hadn't sought confirmation from Lu Ayao. On one hand, I felt the matter was harmless. If a Lu Clan ancestor truly had been involved in building this tomb, and our team happened to include the current Clan Head, it should be a good thing for our…

Nine Rings C177

by MarineTL — Chapter 177: Joining Forces Lu Ayao crushed the cigarette in his hand. I knew he must have come to his senses. I told myself that no matter what, reaching that realization was the first step. After all, he had just witnessed the corpse of a loved one; no matter how strong his mental state, there had to be an adjustment period. I would have to help him work through the rest once we got out of here. I nodded and began packing my things, ready to shoulder my bag again. Just then, I heard a rustling…

Nine Rings C178

by MarineTL — Chapter 178: Charcoal-Grilled Turtles Startled, I spotted a Stone Tortoise statue in the corner of the tomb passage. Taking two quick steps, I used the Stone Tortoise as a foothold to scramble up the wall. Just as I poked my head over the top, I realized Lu Ayao was right on the other side of the wall, directly beneath me. At that exact moment, he cracked his whip, sending a White Corpse Turtle Immortal flying just as it was about to lunge for his face. In the past, whenever Lu Ayao used his whip or…
