Chapter 23 - Finally Some Loot
Chapter 23 - Finally Some Loot
He collected the shield and the spear first .
After testing the green aura for some time, he reached out his hand and picked up the green jade .
As he picked it up the blackness that had started to form on the golems hand disappeared and it returned to its normal color of stone.
Sam was not surprised he sent his spiritual sense into the green jade, As his spiritual sense entered the green jade he felt rejuvenated, all his tiredness was gone instantly .
The aura emitted by the green jade started increasing ,it covered the whole golem and the area around it. He felt as if he was in a large green forest and breathing in the pure oxygen produced by all those green trees.
He felt more calm and as if all his mental fatigues were removed and life force was filling his body .
He came out of this feeling after a while " no wonder the snake treated this jade as a great treasure ..... if I could meditate in that state the result would be really great..."
He felt like he missed something, but before inspecting any more he had to do something.
He focused on the entrance of the cave and used his earth control ability to destroy it.
With the entrance destroyed he was at much more ease.
The green aura that came out has already decreased the amount of black smoke in the later part of the cave.
The walls on many sides of the cave had already been destroyed, while the snake was struggling.
He had to spend more time to discover where the human body was.
After excavating the rubble he found the body parts and the scroll , the weird thing was the body had not corrode at all.
After scrutinizing more, he found that this half body and hands had black crystal like bones along with iron like flesh.
He found something extra on one of the hands, a black ring.
He paused for a second in thought .
"Is this one of those space rings or other mysterious rings , like in those novels... finally, finally fortune has favored me... hahaha.."
After giving the evil laugh Sam sent his spiritual sense into the ring.
As it entered the ring he could feel as if he had entered a different place , but a black wall was blocking him from going any further .
He came back to himself and screamed in his mind " Hahaha... good, good ... finally a great reward for all my hard work..."
After calming himself down, he looked at the final object .
The scroll even though it was laying down there he didn't pick it up.
As his instinct was telling him this was something dangerous.
Not as dangerous as the snake, but still the vibe it gave was of something dangerous .
So he stayed away and used his spiritual sense to probe near it , but nothing happened.
Now he was in doubt and started thinking.
"Should I take it or not, would it be a trap that the dead guy setup.
A trap for the people who tried to take his treasures or maybe his soul is inside it and as I open it he will possess me or something ... nah that does not look much plausible.
Who will come to this dangerous place, even if some one would come will they be weak.
From the look of the body it does not seem like an ordinary could do this to someone.....
whatever did this to this guy, would not have left any way for it to resurrect I guess.
I am already in all this danger , who cares.... I don't even know if there is a scroll inside the cover ...]
There was a black substance attached to the scroll, like dried up blood.
He didn't care and used his spiritual sense to look at what was inside.
