The passage on the other side of the river was slightly different from the previous one.
The previous passage was naturally formed, but this section looked like it was man-made.
Before long, the group of nine had already passed through the man-made passageway.
In the next moment, a shocking scene appeared before their eyes.
At the end of the man-made tunnel was a huge underground cave.
In the center of the huge cave, there was a dilapidated wooden tower that flickered with a faint blue light.
At the bottom of the tower, countless bones were piled up together. At a glance, they were almost all human bones. There were no bones of other creatures at all.
This was not the end. Around the underground cave, there was a ring-shaped burial pit about one meter deep.
Inside, there were still densely packed corpses.
Perhaps, this burial pit was not so shallow. It was just filled with countless human bones…
"Turn off the flashlight and the miner's lamp!"
"Also, all of your cameras, turn off the flash!”
At this moment, Jiang Nan's pupils constricted slightly. He lowered his voice and shouted in a deep voice.
Jiang Nan, who had the physical fitness of a human, had the best eyesight among everyone present.
While the others were still shocked by the corpses and the tower in the center, Jiang Nan had already seen it clearly.
Just like in the original novel, the blue light on the tower was clearly a fire ladybug that built its nest from corpses!
To be able to light up this huge cave as bright as day, one could imagine how many sleeping Fire Ladybugs there were!
"Creatures that live underground all year round, especially insects, may not have developed hearing.”
"However, they will definitely have a sharp reaction to strong light.”
"Don't wake them up!"
Jiang Nan explained further when he saw the puzzled looks from these scholars.
"Yes, yes, listen to Comrade Xiaojiang. Turn off the light source and the camera's flash!”
Professor Chen knew how dangerous the Fire Ladybugs were from the information he had read, so he subconsciously reminded the students.
Especially with such a large number of fire ladybugs, it was even more terrifying!
However, Jiang Nan frowned.
Even though Professor Chen had warned the students cautiously, everyone in the archeological team, including him, looked at the nine-story demon tower with fanatical eyes!
It was obvious that they had already become fanatical scholars when they encountered such a rare historical site, putting their own safety aside.
"This is the legendary Nine Level Demon Tower.”
"This is the funeral situation of the tombs of the past emperors of the ancient Demon Country.”
"Xue Wei in Qinghai also has a ruin that is very similar to this Monster Tower.”
"It's a pity that the Demon Tower was destroyed by the Hero King Gesar when the Demon Nation was destroyed.”
Professor Chen and the others had already started an academic exchange as if no one else was around.
"Xue Li, perhaps your father came for this nine-story Demon Tower!”
Just as Professor Chen and the others were discussing, Jiang Nan received a system notification.
"Ding! The system has detected that the host has come into contact with the nine-story Demon Tower.”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the second part of the mission.”
"Ding! Now, the mission reward will be calculated based on the host's performance... Calculating…"
"Calculation complete. 1000 points, True Dragon Bloodline Tattoo!”
True Dragon Bloodline Tattoo!
Jiang Nan was shocked. Was this thing the same thing as the Qilin tattoo?
This was a good thing. Thinking about the little brother's Qilin tattoo, it could repel insects and exorcise evil spirits, prolong life, and maintain youth forever.
In that case, as a true dragon tattoo, one of the five divine beasts, or even the strongest true dragon, would not be too bad.
In the next moment, Jiang Nan felt a strange heat flow emerge from his body.
His arms, back, waist, left shoulder, and heart began to feel a burning pain.
The sudden burning sensation made Jiang Nan grunt subconsciously, and his body could not help but tremble slightly.
"Are you okay? Are you not feeling well? Or was it a hidden injury left behind by the battle with the Overlord Salamandrid?”
Shirley noticed Jiang Nan's slight abnormality and frowned slightly. She quickly supported Jiang Nan and asked with concern.
"I'm fine…"
The burning pain came and went quickly. As he spoke, the discomfort on Jiang Nan's body disappeared.
What replaced it was an unprecedented sense of relief.
It was as if a huge burden that had been weighing down on him all year round had suddenly been removed.
He felt very comfortable.
The reward from the system this time was really something good. He really didn't put his life on the line when he killed the Overlord Salamandrid just now.
The true dragon tattoo was comparable to the Qilin bloodline tattoo of the Zhang family!
According to the system's evaluation, it was better than the Qilin tattoo in all aspects.
In fact, Jiang Nan felt that his physical fitness had already reached the peak of humanity, and there was still a slight improvement!
"Ding! The mission reward has been distributed. Please accept it.”
"Ding! [Third Mission: Go to Jingjue Ancient City and destroy the Corpse Fragrance Kojac!] The mission reward will be decided based on the host's performance!”
Just as the system notification sounded, Shirley suddenly spoke.
"Jiang Nan, why did a tattoo suddenly appear on your body…"
Just now, Shirley saw through the gaps in his clothes that there was a black scale-like tattoo on his shoulder!
Tattoos were not rare, but a tattoo that appeared out of thin air was different!
This was definitely not a pigeon blood tattoo.
Shirley could feel that the tattoos in Jiangnan were not simple.
Vaguely, she actually felt that this tattoo seemed to be alive!
"Shh…"
Jiang Nan immediately covered Shirley's mouth and shook his head, indicating that he should not say anything for the time being.
"Just take it as... Just treat it as a special bloodline of our clan, just like the Ghost Eye Curse of your Moving Mountain lineage. It's hereditary.”
Jiang Nan started to talk nonsense again.
