402 Investigation Result, Five Secret Rooms (2)
Li Moqing and Qiyue quickly joined the battlefield and began to kill these Dark-born Society members.
There were not many Dark-born Society members around, only more than thirty.
Moreover, the overall combat strength of these Dark-born Society members was not very powerful. They were only level 20.
Not to mention Lu Yan, even Heng Shanyue and the others could directly kill them.
A large number of Dark-born Society members were killed.
Lu Yan also walked forward with the Netherworld Soul Scythe and directly subdued a member of the Dark-born Society. He placed the Netherworld Soul Scythe in his hand on the other party’s neck.
“Where is Yang Hongwei? You…”
Before Lu Yan could continue asking, blood seeped out of the corner of the mouth of the Dark-born Society member in front of him and his body directly fell to the ground.
In less than five minutes, all the members of the Dark-born Society had been eliminated. No one was left alive.
Lu Yan frowned slightly. “These Dark-born Society members are stubborn. They’re too loyal to their faith. We can’t capture them alive at all.”
Li Moqing also nodded. “Although there are also cowardly Dark-born Society members, there are very few of them. Most of them are not afraid of death. It’s still a little too difficult to find out anything from them.”
Lu Yan frowned slightly. He did not have the skill to explore memories yet. Otherwise, he could be able to gain a lot of information very well.
Li Moqing looked at the surrounding situation and frowned.
Although he had killed many Dark-born Society members, other than that, he had not discovered anything else. He still could not detect Yang Hongwei’s traces.
At this moment, Lu Yan said, “I previously discovered two secret rooms under the ground of this forest. I wonder if there are other secret rooms, but there are no traces of any Dark-born Society members inside. There are only the same runes as the one in the house.”
Hearing Lu Yan’s words, Li Moqing’s eyes lit up. “Since there are no clues now. Lu Yan, investigate the surroundings and see if there are any other secret rooms. See if you can discover anything.”
“The others, continue to investigate the forest and see if there are other Dark-born Society members.”
Lu Yan nodded. Then, he looked at the four members of the Dark Destroyer Team in front of him and asked, “How did you discover these Dark-born Society members?”
One of the members of the Dark Destroyer Team said, “We were investigating here and encountered the ambush of these Dark-born Society members.
“They hid behind the tree and directly attacked when we arrived.
Hearing this member of the Dark Destroyer Team, Lu Yan pondered for a moment.
From the looks of it, these Dark-born Society members were not core members. There was not a single Dark-born Society elder. It was also somewhat strange for them to suddenly appear here.
However, no matter what, there were no other clues now. He could only continue investigating first.
Lu Yan used Corpse Stealth again and entered the ground to continue investigating if there were other secret rooms in the surroundings.
Soon, Lu Yan discovered two more secret rooms. Together with the two secret rooms just now, there were already four secret rooms.
These four secret rooms were distributed in the north, south, east, and west in the four directions of the forest. Lu Yan thought for a moment and directly headed towards the center of the forest.
Moreover, the two secret rooms he had just found were the same layout and size as the previous two secret rooms. It was just that the runes inside were different.
According to this distribution pattern, there should also be a secret room in the center of the forest.
Arriving in the center of the forest, Lu Yan used Corpse Stealth and entered the ground.
As expected, there was indeed a secret room here!
The secret room under the ground in the center of this forest was somewhat different from the other four secret rooms.
Firstly, this secret room was very large, twice the size of the other secret rooms he had discovered.
Secondly, this secret room was not empty like the other four secret rooms. There was a corpse on one of the stone tables.
That stone table was exactly the same as the stone table where Wang Lei’s corpse lay previously.
Lu Yan was shocked and quickly arrived beside the stone table. His gaze landed on the corpse on the stone table.
After seeing the appearance of the corpse clearly, Lu Yan heaved a sigh of relief. It was not Yang Hongwei.
Lu Yan had seen Yang Hongwei’s photo before. Moreover, the corpse on this stone table was a female corpse.
Looking at this corpse, Lu Yan frowned.
The situation here was becoming more and more complicated. He did not know where this female corpse came from.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yan directly returned to the ground and found Li Moqing before telling her the situation here.
Li Moqing thought for a moment and directly instructed the surrounding members of the Dark Destroyer Team to dig down according to the five secret rooms Lu Yan had mentioned. They would dig out the five secret rooms first.
As for the female corpse Lu Yan was talking about, Li Moqing thought for a moment and got a member of the Dark Destroyer Team to call the village chief and get him to come and see if he knew her.
They also had to tell the village chief about the situation here.
Qiyue and the others also quickly rushed back. The surrounding forest had already been completely investigated, but they did not discover anything. There were no other Dark-born Society members around.
Soon, the surrounding secret rooms had already been dug out, leaving only the secret room in the middle.
At this moment, Village Chief Yang also rushed over. When he saw the forest being dug, the flesh on his face trembled.
“What’s wrong, Village Chief Yang?” Li Moqing looked at Yang Village and asked.
The corner of Village Chief Yang’s mouth curled into a smile. “It’s nothing. It’s just that this forest is the graveyard of our Yang Family Village. It’s not very friendly to our ancestors to dig like this.
“However, there’s no tomb here. It’s alright.”
Lu Yan looked at Village Chief Yang when he heard this and then asked, “Village Chief Yang, do you know anything about these secret rooms?”
Village Chief Yang hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this. “Sigh, how can I know? How can there be such things? It must be the Dark-born Society. You have to chase them out and return peace to our Yang Family Village.”
Looking at Village Chief Yang, Lu Yan nodded and did not say anything else.
The excavation of the secret room still took a lot of time. By the time the largest secret room in the middle of the forest was dug out, it was already noon.
The dazzling sunlight scattered into the secret room, illuminating everything inside.
Everyone’s gazes landed on the secret room and they saw the corpse on the stone table.
Village Chief Yang’s gaze also landed on the corpse, his eyes revealing fear.
Li Moqing looked at Village Chief Yang and said, “How is it? Village Chief Yang, do you recognize this corpse?”
Village Chief Yang took a closer look and then shook his head. “I don’t recognize this person. This person is not from our Yang Family Village.”
Li Moqing nodded. Then, she got the surrounding members of the Dark Destroyer Team to take photos of the runes in the few secret rooms and send them back to see if they could decipher them.
However, Li Moqing then fell into deep thought.
In their current situation, there did not seem to be any good breakthroughs.
Although he had discovered many Dark-born Society members and killed them, he did not discover anything else.
Helpless, Li Moqing could only get the surrounding members of the Dark Destroyer Team to continue expanding the search area, wanting to see if there were any other discoveries in the surroundings.
However, until night fell, they did not discover anything new in the surroundings.
The five secret rooms were all excavated. They had also been investigated inside and out several times. Other than those runes, they did not discover anything else.
Seeing the sky darken, the surrounding members of the Dark Destroyer Team looked at each other, their eyes revealing fear.
The three members of the Dark Destroyer Team that had disappeared had yet to be found.
