Chapter 327: Chapter 309: Did Someone Beat Me to It? (Full)_1

The matter of searching for the Demon Clan Great Tomb was something Emma Scott couldn’t help with. Instead, she directed the other Scott Clan members to set up camp. As night was about to fall, the camp was already established. There was also progress from the elder’s side, who enthusiastically returned to report to Owen Bertram, "Lord, we’ve found the entrance to the tomb!"

Lord Algernon had been wearing a stern expression for half a day, placing considerable pressure on everyone.

Owen Bertram hadn’t realized that he now carried significant "authority". Generally, it would not be demonstrated.

This "authority" was not just because of the addition of the Horizon Bureau, nor because he held power over everyone along the river. Rather, it was also due to his own impressive strength!

Both Scott Clan and Lioyd Sect had shifted from initial "flattery" to genuine respect. They really regarded this young man as their master.

So for half a day, from the chief of the Lioyd Sect to the ordinary followers, without needing any urging from the elders, they all exerted their full effort, racked their brains, and maximized their "ancestral skills". Otherwise, this ancient Demon Clan Great Tomb would have taken them three or four days to even find the entrance under normal circumstances.

"Take me there," Owen Bertram commanded, and the elder immediately guided him to the front.

The entrance to the tomb was hidden under the water’s surface.

The slope leading to the water is relatively steep, entirely rock. The entrance was approximately two meters under the water’s surface on this rock wall. There was also an old array covering the entrance, but because of its age, the array could only exert about 20-30% of its original function.

The Lioyd Sect family was very wealthy and had already used mechanical techniques to build a bridge from the top of the slope to the underwater entrance, drained the water, and made the air inside breathable.

Owen Bertram went down with everyone else to take a look. Standing outside the entrance, he saw many huge rocks scattered nearby the stone wall. Each of them more or less had ancient demon symbols engraved on them.

The elder said, "Just give the order, sir, and we can open the array at the entrance overnight. We strive to fully excavate this great tomb within three days!"

The members of the Lioyd Sect were secretly distressed. The timeline for the ancient tomb was too tight. Any little accident and the mission would be unfulfilled. By that point, if Lord Algernon were to reprimand them, wouldn’t everyone be punished together?

Owen Bertram turned to those few cultivators who were deeply versed in the Earth Vein Book and asked, "As long as you’ve observed the terrain in the tomb, can you deduce the correct results, or do you have to dig up the tomb?"

The few looked at each other and answered truthfully, "As long as we know what’s inside, it should be enough."

"Alright." Owen Bertram waved his hand, "I will send someone to take you in there."

"What?" The few people were greatly surprised. How could they get in there?

Owen Bertram thought for a moment, and both Lord and Mesmerizing Demon appeared!

These two, Lord had devoured the souls of Adair Barton and Barret, and had already become a Tire-5 Great Ghost. And even among other Tire-5 Great Ghosts, he was a formidable entity, slightly inferior only to the Drowned Ghost Princess of the past.

The Mesmerizing Demon, a terrifying Demon Being painstakingly crafted by eleven major clans, its queer abilities were even beyond Lord!

Two such monsters appearing suddenly by your side late at night... Even though everyone present was a formidable cultivator, they still felt chills running down their necks.

Owen Bertram said, "Don’t panic, they’re under my control."

"I will let them carry you in their ghost bodies and take you in. They can carry two people at a time, so it will only take two trips to get all of you inside."

The four people instinctively shrank back. How terrifying would that experience be?

They repeatedly said, "Lord, this ancient Demon Clan Great Tomb surely contains many terrifying prohibitions. Merely relying on the ghost beings’ ability to penetrate walls and transport, we fear, might not be sufficient to handle it..."

Owen Bertram glared, "You don’t have faith in my subordinates?"

"We dare not..." The four people secretly groaned. Owen Bertram had come up with this idea to punish them a bit for their incompetence.

Suddenly, one of them had a brilliant idea and hurriedly said, "Lord, actually, if two of us with the highest levels go in and take a look, that should be enough. We have already completed most of the deduction work. We just need to compare it with the situation inside, to find the correct direction of the Treasure Vein."

"I recommend Jerald Scott and the Lioyd Sect’s Rachel. Their understanding of the Earth Vein Book is much higher than mine."

Jerald Scott and Rachel almost jumped up, humbly saying, "Our level is actually not high..."

"Shut up!" Owen Bertram shouted, "Draw lots!"

Strangely enough, it happened to be Jerald Scott and Rachel who drew the lots!

Both, looking dismal, held a grudge against the man who had previously suggested this.

Owen Bertrum instructed, "Go in peace."

Lord howled strangely, his body turned into rolling black fog, enveloping Jerald Scott, and flung himself towards the tomb entrance, disappearing into it.

The Mesmerizing Demon, this eerie little girl, suddenly released countless threads of blood, coiling around Rachel. Rachel only let out half a shriek before she was bundled into a red bundle, carried on the Mesmerizing Demon’s back. Then, taking small steps, walked in. Everything seemed unable to stop her.

Everyone around was stunned. From then on, whenever faced with Lord Algernon, Rachel was always extremely cautious. She had come to realize that while Lord Algernon was highly capable, he was also very cunning... The four of them had just been inefficient, and he had seized the opportunity to teach them a lesson.
