My incarnation is becoming a global calamity.

Chapter 22 The Death of Rhys



Chapter 22 The Death of Rhys

Throughout the entire tomb, apart from the stone coffin which remained unexplored, not a single item related to magical artifacts was found.

Could it be that it was placed in the stone coffin as a burial object?

Su Tu thought to himself, but did not rush over to open the stone coffin.

He didn't know what dangers might be inside the stone coffin.

However, without opening the sarcophagus, he would not know whether Ashir's personal magical artifacts were inside.

The second phase of the task would then be impossible to complete.

As his thoughts raced, Su Tu noticed that Rhys had already walked up to the stone coffin.

Judging from his calm face, you could tell what he wanted to do.

"Is their goal also magical artifacts?"

Su Tu pondered in his heart, his body still standing in the same place, without moving.

However, his hand was already lightly placed on the top hat, ready to use the magical tool at any time.

Of course, he also remembered that he should not use magical tools for the next 10 minutes, starting from when the crystal ball was activated.

Only three minutes have passed; it's not the best time to use magical tools yet.

But it seems that it wouldn't even take Rhys 7 minutes to open the sarcophagus.

Su Tu understood that once Rhys got his hands on the magical artifact, it would be virtually impossible to take it back.

So it seems the only way to buy those 7 minutes is through the Royal Scouts.

"Those guys probably won't be able to stay still after seeing the sarcophagus of the people buried here opened."

Su Tu thought to himself, took a few steps back, and calmly scanned his surroundings in case of sudden danger.

And it turned out just as he had thought.

As Rhys touched the sarcophagus, a dark red light shot towards him.

However, Su Tu didn't believe that this mysterious relics merchant would be ambushed and killed here.

He silently took a few steps back, a hint of wariness in his deep eyes.

His eyes were fixed on Rhys's position, wanting to see how he would evade the sneak attack.

Ries, whose attention was focused on the stone coffin, suddenly paused, as if sensing something.

His gaze followed the direction from which the light was coming.

Then, a slight smile appeared on his lips, his pale face remaining calm, as if he could easily dodge the sudden attack.

However, the moment he raised his hand, the light suddenly accelerated and pierced directly through his head.

Red and white substances gushed out like a fountain, and a strong stench of blood filled the air.

Su Tu, who was originally prepared to watch the show, was surprised when he saw Rhys being killed so easily.

But he quickly returned to normal and, without hesitation, used the Fool's Hat.

If Rhys was killed, then he definitely couldn't have survived this group's sneak attack.

If we don't use it now, the next person to die will definitely be myself.

Time seemed to stand still the instant the magical artifact was activated.

The colors of the surrounding environment faded, appearing as a grayish-white in his eyes.

The royal reconnaissance team, which had been hiding in the shadows using some kind of ability, also revealed themselves to him.

Su Tu understood that this was the opportunity to create an illusion that he had gained after modifying the magical tool's abilities.

If nothing unexpected happens, the surrounding area should be in a state of stagnation right now.

Everyone was paralyzed, and time seemed to have been paused.

Of course, he is also unable to take a single step now and can only stay obediently in place.

Taking this opportunity, he slightly shifted his gaze to the headless corpse lying next to the stone coffin, and a hint of doubt flashed through his mind.

Why was Rhys so easily ambushed and killed?

This is not reasonable.

Rhys had just used the crystal ball to predict the future not long ago, and was soon ambushed and killed.

From any perspective, it's clearly not very realistic.

Unless... Rhys did it on purpose.

But what about this headless corpse?

Magical tools? Or some other special ability?

Let's assume that all of this is part of Rhys's plan.

Did the other party anticipate that I would use the Fool's Hat?

The more Su Tu thought about it, the more horrified he became.

If that's the case, then Rhys is far too terrifying.

He has already used his magical tools.

If Rhys were to kill her to silence her, would she be able to survive without any trump cards?

He sighed softly, a faint resolve appearing on his previously calm face.

"Since that's the case, let's all perish together."

The soft murmur sounded like the whisper of a demon from hell, and his hand moved gently.

The next moment, the entire hall became transparent in his eyes.

Even the items placed inside the stone coffin were completely visible to him.

However, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw the still lifelike corpse in the stone coffin.

But now, he no longer has the energy to think about so much.

She raised her hand and pointed to a middle-aged man in the corner, softly describing the illusion she had created.

"Keep the environment unchanged, and switch identities with him."

As the words fell, the top hat emitted a dazzling white light.

When Su Tu opened his eyes again, he found himself hiding in a corner of the main hall.

The clothes they wore were also given to others to exchange.

However, the Fool's hat was still on his head.

The white light fell, and the blue light, representing wisdom, spread outwards from him.

When the hall regained its color, Su Tu understood that the Fool's Hat had gone into cooling-off period.

"If that guy Rhys uses a magical artifact to feign death, there must be a time limit."

Su Tu glanced at the main hall and, apart from Rhys lying on the ground, did not notice anything else unusual.

Under other circumstances, Rhys's plan might have succeeded.

But now that his identity has changed, he naturally won't let Rhys succeed.

A sound like shattering glass rang in Su Tu's ears, and the entire hall returned to normal.

The stench of blood still lingered in the air, while Ke You, who had been standing where Su Tu had been, looked around in bewilderment.

"Captain, should we take action and capture this guy?"

A slightly immature voice rang in Su Tu's ears.

Following the sound, he saw Lira's youthful face.

However, he showed no surprise whatsoever, simply waving his hand dismissively.

"action."

Seeing this, Lila's eyes flashed with joy, and she rushed towards "Ke You" with a short sword in hand.

As the figures lying in ambush around him appeared one by one, Su Tu touched his slightly prickly chin and smiled slightly.

"Bot's orders were still very useful."

That's right, he has now switched identities with Bot.

As for the original Bot, he stood in Su Tu's original position and transformed into the appearance of 'Ke You'.

Lira and his men rushed forward without hesitation, disregarding the danger, which was also related to the hat's ability to lower IQ.

It's safe to say that for the next 10 minutes, aside from Rhys who might be able to predict the future, he will be in no danger.

Su Tu looked calmly at the stone coffin and slowly stood up.

"Let's get the magical tools first and complete the main quest."

During the brief moment of stillness while creating the illusion, he saw the magical artifact that belonged to Ashir inside the stone coffin.

Once you get it, you can complete the second phase of the mission.
