My Waste Husband novel Chapter 1361

The trio continued marching on forward. Regarding the incidents in the cave, Ranjeet actually no idea what it really was like. All of his knowledge about it was based on what he had heard from his family. It was his first time down there too.

Along the way, the three of them saw more and more corpses. The closer they were to the centre, the more people there would be, and more fighting would break out. It was just as the man and woman Henry had killed earlier had said, everyone who made their way there all had their eyes set on the inheritance of Loulan. Everyone there saw each other as enemies.

"Bro, the centre-point is just right ahead." Ranjeet stopped walking. Dozens of passages of different sizes appeared before the three of them. "These passages can lead to the centre-point, but they go in different directions respectively. Plus, some of the passages also have Puppet Fighters hidden within them."

Henry frowned. He did not understand why there were still so many passages. Was it just to separate the paths? He saw no reason for that at all.

Ranjeet seemed to notice that Henry had doubts and explained, "Bro, our inheritance of Loulan is not something that anyone can easily inherit. These passages actually serve as a test, to a certain extent. The widest passage can accommodate four people. Relatively speaking, this channel, which is wide enough for four people, would be more dangerous than the other smaller passages that can only accommodate one person. The idea of my ancestors is very simple, if you can't manage to survive these passages, then you'd not be eligible enough to inherit the inheritance."

Henry nodded, then picked the widest passage and marched on. There was no special reason behind that decision, he chose it just for the sake of its spaciousness.

Ranjeet was obviously not the kind who enjoyed a challenge. Seeing that Henry had made a decision, he just followed behind him without any hesitation.

It was just as Ranjeet had said, the passage was indeed full of challenges. There were various mechanisms and Puppet Fighters in it. Six Puppet Fighters emerged suddenly, blocking Henry in his path, the only way to the other side was through them. This time, no light was involved in the operation of those Puppet Fighters. They were much stronger than the ones Henry had encountered before, and would attack the moment they were touched. The lower limbs of the Puppet Fighter were stationary, only their upper bodies would attack relentlessly which could only mean that if one wanted to go through, he would have to either destroy all six of the Puppet Fighters, or dodge their attacks easily and pass the test.

This was not a problem for Henry, and it also had little effect on the gluttonous Ranjeet or the gentlelooking Yaffah, both of them displayed their impressive capabilities and stood behind Henry after going through the Puppet Fighters.

The spherical Ranjeet had a timid look on his face. It was obvious that he had gotten used to running away from his problems, and had been living with the philosophy of avoiding conflict as much as possible. Yaffah followed closely behind Ranjeet with the same expression on her face, which might have been a result of sticking around Ranjeet too much.

After passing the test of the Puppet Fighters, there were no other traps in the passage. Henry walked for about five minutes and arrived at the end, a cliff appeared in front of him.

Henry stopped walking abruptly and looked forward. The bottomless cliff was like the jaws of danger that led to the depths of hell in the darkness that surrounded them.

Henry pulled out the flashlight he had picked up earlier and flicked it on. Henry caught a glimpse of his surroundings and turned off the flashlight instantly. The flashlight was just on for a second.

Henry clearly saw that there were countless Puppet Fighters at the bottom of the cliff, their numbers were so great that it was impossible to count exactly how many they were. The Puppet Fighters were armed with weapons such as curved swords, bow and arrows, broadswords, spears, swords and shields, and more.

To be exact, it was not a cliff that appeared before Henry, but a deep pit, it was about 50 meters in depth. The walls around the pit resembled beehives, filled with openings of passages similar to the one where Henry was in, it would have been a very disturbing sight for someone with trypophobia.

Among those passages, some had people within it, and some had none.

Ranjeet squeezed in together with Yaffah to where Henry stood. After their eyes had gotten used to the dimness, they could vaguely see the densely packed Puppet Fighters below. There was a huge cylindrical shaped object at the very centre of those Puppet Fighters.
