Chapter 200 Things Seem Less Simple Than They Appear

"I'll be damned, I forgot to ask. Who recorded this text? Was it also done by Mongolian craftsmen?"

"I guess it must have been a loyal confidant. Wouldn't every general have one like that?"

"That makes sense."

Inside the Dean's conference room.

Everyone looked at the large screen in front of them, then back at the screen.

"Is this real?"

Professor Hu, his face filled with shock, looked at the Dean, seeking confirmation.

"This... Professor Lin did mention it before, but I was dealing with other matters and didn't pay much attention. If you say so now, then it should be true."

The Dean said with embarrassment. Back then, there was no evidence to prove it, so this historical fact wasn't publicized. Fortunately, Professor Lin had read that scroll.

Otherwise, this matter would have been difficult to explain.

"So, this is real? There really was such a general in history? Then this general died very unjustly."

Professor Wen wasn't interested in this unofficial history. He didn't consider anything unverified.

"It truly was unjust. Guarding a tomb for one's enemy. They really thought of something!"

Professor Hu looked at the large screen and chimed in.

Inside the tomb.

"But this mirror... what's going on? Why is it placed in front of the coffin? I don't know much about feng shui, but this thing appearing before a coffin is taboo."

Old Tang pondered the mirror for a long time, then looked at Zhou Lin in confusion.

"This is a warning, telling the general whose tomb he is guarding, reminding him constantly. This is also a way to accumulate resentment."

Zhou Lin then walked gently towards the mirror and glanced at the candle beside it. The flame of the candle was very strange.

It didn't look like a normal oil lamp, but something altered by dark arts.

"This coffin looks quite good. Is this blood jade?"

Captain Lin walked to the side and reached out to touch the material on top, but...

"Don't touch it."

Zhou Lin suddenly spoke, instinctively pulling Captain Lin aside. They saw the lid of the coffin suddenly lift and fly towards where Captain Lin had been standing.

The sudden turn of events made everyone's hearts tighten.

Captain Lin looked at Zhou Lin with lingering fear.

"This is not blood jade, it's a blood coffin. Look at your hand."

Zhou Lin glanced at Captain Lin and said calmly.

Captain Lin looked at the red bloodstains on his hand, a sense of horror washing over him.

At this moment—

A large amount of corpse qi suddenly emerged from the coffin, and waves of black mist enveloped the coffin.

After a while, a man in armor appeared from within. His face was pale green, and his arms had scale-like protrusions.

Green smoke emanated from him.

His eyes were blood-red, and he looked at Zhou Lin without any warmth.

Upon seeing this situation, Old Tang, Professor Lin, the metaphysics professor, and the archaeological team behind them instinctively took a few steps back, their gazes filled with fear towards the general.

"Professor, retreat, quickly, retreat."

One of the mercenaries cautiously stepped back a few paces.

However, as he retreated, he accidentally bumped the bronze mirror. The mirror shook a few times, and in the light, the general happened to see his reflection.

His previously vacant gaze gradually turned violent.

His fingers clenched into fists, and the violence in his eyes turned into hatred.

"This is bad, something is wrong. Is there a problem?"

Professor Lin, observing the general's expression, which was like the calm before a storm, asked softly.

"Look at yourself in the mirror, wearing the enemy's clothes. Wouldn't you be angry? Wouldn't you hate?"

Old Tang took one glance and understood what the general was thinking. He replied softly.

"Then what do we do? Will he kill us for revenge?"

The metaphysics professor asked in a low voice.

"What do you think?"

Old Tang was very curious at this moment, what kind of creature this was. Was it a zombie? Or something else? Did zombies look like this?

In the live stream.

"Holy crap, is this a zombie? Why does its skin look like that? Why does it look so strange?"

"Damn, is this a mermaid? Why does it have green scales? Am I seeing things? Are those fish scales or what?"

"Nonsense, it's not a mermaid, why would it have fish scales? Did you just wake up?"

"Let's not talk about that now. We should think about what to do next. This guy doesn't look easy to deal with. I'm not worried about the big shot, but I am worried about the professors and the mercenaries. They are ordinary people."

...

Inside the tomb.

"This general is not a traitor. This general is not a traitor. These people wronged me. They set a trap. Khan, you must believe me."

General Ha Lei looked at the armor on his body, repeatedly murmuring these words in his mind.

"It was you, you harmed this general. You are all in league with that dog of Dongxia."

General Ha Lei's corpse qi surged, and he attacked the mercenaries beside him.

The nails on his fingers began to grow wildly, with black energy swirling around them.

Seeing this, the mercenaries aimed their weapons at the general.

Bang!!

The bullets hit the general's body as if they were hitting a stone wall, making no sound.

But the general seemed unaffected, calmly attacking the mercenaries.

At this moment, the mercenaries in front of him seemed like enemies of Dongxia, their hearts filled with hatred.

"Ah..."

Seeing the general approaching, the mercenary cried out instinctively.

Zhou Lin saw this and quickly took out the whip in his hand, then swung it to the side.

Boom!

Dust kicked up throughout the space.

Zhou Lin looked at the whip in his hand, which was still emitting wisps of green smoke.

Hmm?

A Hanba?

Even a whip made of dragon scales would turn like this, showing how dense the corpse qi was.

Professor Lin, Old Tang, and the others watched the scene before them, feeling a sense of panic. They then ran towards Zhou Lin.

"Professor Zhou Lin, what is this thing? Why is the corpse qi so dense?"

The metaphysics professor looked at the whip and the appearance on it. Zhou Lin had said before that this thing was extraordinary, but now the whip was emitting green smoke...

This general is definitely not as simple as he appears.
