Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 453: Chapter 402, Mount Golden Silver Mountain_2

…

The treasure cave is located halfway up the mountain.

Without the guidance of a map, it would be very difficult to locate it within such a massive mountain range.

The path up the mountain is not easy.

The cart and the bodies can’t be carried along.

Demitrija arranged for some people to stay at the foot of the mountain, not only to guard the belongings but also to keep an eye out for potential enemies from behind.

Fang Hao and others, formed a long line.

A Skeleton Troll took the lead, chopping away the thorns blocking the path with the battle-ax in its hand.

This allowed the team to progress smoothly.

Upon reaching the middle, they saw the treasure cave.

Everyone drew close, looking at the huge cave.

The cave was very tall, standing in front of it, you feel very insignificant.

You can see traces of excavation around the cave.

“Stay alert here, I’m going in to take a look.” Fang Hao said.

After using God’s Presence, he utilized the Skeleton Sparrow to enter the cave.

The Skeleton Sparrow is small in size and thus often unnoticeable.

Even if there are powerful creatures in the cave, there’s a great chance they’ll overlook such a small sparrow.

The cave is dark and deep, with jagged rock walls on either side.

Perhaps because they’ve been dealing with burial grounds lately.

Fang Hao even suspects this mid-mountain cave may well be an ancient tomb or some sort of historical monument.

The cave path is sinuous, fortunately, there is only one road.

Moving forward, you can see some plants, similar to moss, glowing a faint green light in the corners of the cave.

[Luminous Fungal Carpet]

The deeper you go, the larger the coverage of this fungal carpet.

Covering the floor and walls entirely, it truly resembled a large carpet.

Fang Hao controlled the Skeleton Sparrow to land on the carpet, showing no aggressiveness.

So, it’s probably just a kind of fungus that grows in particular environments.

Soon, Fang Hao flew to the deep part of the cave.

All around, various Nightstones started to appear. As his field of vision became lit up, his heart gave a great leap.

It was a wide open, massive space.

Rather than a cave, it was more like a palace carved into the mountain.

The stone wall was no longer rough. The ceiling hung full of lanterns adorned with Nightstones.

On the stone columns supporting the roof, intricate designs were carved.

Contrasting greatly with the stony corridor outside.

In the center of the palace was a massive rectangular stone platform, covered in a great deal of fur.

Other than the size, it looked quite like a huge stone bed.

Surrounding the stone bed, heaps of Gold Coins and gems could be found.

The flicker of the gemstones and gold was almost blinding to Fang Hao’s eyes.

This is madness!

Did he just stumble upon a pirate’s treasure trove?

How could there be so much wealth?

The quantity of jewels shocked Fang Hao.

It took a while for Fang Hao to suppress his astonishment.

Flapping its wings, the sparrow flew a circle around the cave. Other than the piles of gold and jewels, no danger or enemies were detected.

Only after confirming there were no enemies and no danger

Fang Hao controlled the Skeleton Sparrow to fly out of the cave.

After dismissing God’s Presence, Anjia asked, “How is it?”

“No danger inside, there’s a lot of money.” Fang Hao replied.

“A lot of money?”

“A lot of money, the cave is filled with Gold Coins and gemstones.” Fang Hao stated confidently.

Anjia frowned, touched his forehead, “Did you eat some strange mushrooms or something…”

“No.” Fang Hao checked the Light Feather short sword strapped at his waist.

Ensuring that he wasn’t under a curse or mental disruption.

Therefore, he hadn’t hallucinated, there were indeed countless treasures inside.

Fang Hao opened the Book of Lords and crafted a large amount of [Troll Stitched Marching Tents].

This type of tent is stitched from large pieces of Beast Skin, they can wrap up the Gold Coins and gemstones for transport.

“Let’s go, move in.” Fang Hao ordered.

Everyone, carrying their stitched Beast Skin, with Nightstones out, walked into the cave.

They hadn’t walked far

When suddenly, Demitrija halted the advancing team.

With the Nightstone in hand, he crouched down and looked at the ground.

“Master, there are footprints on the ground leading outwards.”

Fang Hao and Anjia rushed over to Demitrija’s side, where they too, noticed the outward-moving footprints on the ground.

When Fang Hao came in earlier, he didn’t have the Nightstone for illumination.

He hadn’t noticed the footprints on the ground, but now that Demitrija mentioned it, it was obvious towards what he was implying.

Someone had left from inside the cave.

“Judging from the footprints, they weren’t made a long time ago, probably just a few days.” Demitrija analyzed.

At these words, Fang Hao suddenly thought of the Blood Hunter.

It was while he wasn’t home, that he had cleared out Shadowwind Castle.

Now, the same thing is happening again.

Wasn’t this unearned wealth?

Fang Hao stood up and immediately said, “Hurry up and finish moving everything as fast as you can, let’s not disturb the owner when they come back to rest.”

The pseudo-dragon outside the door was the guard protecting the treasures in the cave.

He had already committed the act of killing, so the enmity was inevitably formed.

Leaving now wouldn’t change anything, so he might as well do a thorough job.

“Alright, let’s keep moving.” Demitrija gave the order.

The large group marched onward swiftly.

As they entered the deeper chambers of the palace, everyone’s expressions changed.

Mountains of treasures.

How much fortune was this?

“Move everything to the carts at the foot of the mountain. Domina, you ride the Bone Dragon and transport the bodies back, then return here.” Fang Hao gave a direct order.

“Yes, Master.” Domina agreed and immediately left.

The remaining Skeleton Trolls and Spiderized soldiers opened large stitched-up beast skin bags, filled them up with gold and jewels, then used spider silk to seal the opening.

They then carried everything down to the foot of the mountain.

…

The Skeleton Soldiers were busy going in and out.

They carried bag after bag of treasure out.

As the surface jewels decreased, they discovered golden chests and Dragon Crystals on the ground.

The moment he saw the Dragon Crystals, Fang Hao realized that the cave’s original owner was probably an actual dragon.

The footprints at the entrance might belong to another human, or a dragon in human form.

Previously, Domina mentioned to Fang Hao,

Many races had the ability to morph into human form once they became heroes.

Maintaining their original form consumed a tremendous amount of energy, so they typically appeared in humanoid form, retaining some of their original features.

Like Domina in her humanoid form, she still retained her insect shell and spider appendages.

It’s highly possible that the owner of the cave was a dragons who can shape-shift into human form.

…

“Master, we’ve finished moving everything and cleaned up any traces we left behind,” Demitrija walked over again and reported.

“Good, you all did well.” Fang Hao nodded in approval.

“Master, we can leave now. It’s getting late outside; I’m afraid we won’t return to the Webweaver’s campsite until after midnight,” Demitrija continued.

The time spent fighting with the pseudo-dragon guard was less than the time it took to transport the treasures.

Now it was 10 pm.

The wilderness at night was very dangerous.

“Wait, Anjia, can you write in the Orcish language?” Fang Hao asked.

“It depends on the words.”

“On this pillar, write, ‘The treasures now belong to the Blackstone Tribe. If you’re not happy, come fight with me, you little dragon …'”

“Hehe, you’re really bad…” Anjia smiled, understanding Fang Hao’s intentions.

She immediately began to carve Fang Hao’s words on the stone pillar.

Halfway through, she turned back and asked, “How do you write ‘Fight’?”

“You’re asking me? Just draw a kitchen knife …”

“Alright.”

Demitrija, standing behind them, watched as the two debated how to substitute for the characters they didn’t know how to write.

He had to leave and instructed everyone to prepare for the return journey.

Soon, the twisted and provoking words were completed.

The two of them headed down the mountain, and the team began their return journey.

…

The large group moved swiftly through the night.

In the woods on either side of the road,

You could hear creatures sounding along with the caravan.

Luckily, there were many undead in the team providing an adequate defense.

After trailing them for a while, when they’re near the Webweaver’s camp, they gave up following.

Domina arranged rooms for everyone.

Fang Hao and Anjia got a room suspended in the air, secured by white spider webs.

Because the spiderized soldiers didn’t use beds,

The two had to sleep on the ground as well.

Just as he closed his eyes, he heard the scurrying sound of spiders outside.

It made him uncomfortable.

The next morning,

Fang Hao walked out with dark circles under his eyes.

A giant spider hatchling delivered two pieces of roasted meat to him.

On the roasted meat, there were still some dark red scales that hadn’t been removed.
