He glanced around the circular room, and upon seeing the Skeletons lying on the ground, he thought to himself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it's possible for Skeletons here to evolve into undead of the Netherworld. As I thought, this is no ordinary tomb. In that case...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Bondoni could continue his train of thought, marlow waved his hand in front of Bondoni's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Bondoni, you seemed distracted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was just observing the surroundings, that's all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Bondoni looked around the chamber once more, then asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First, let me confirm something: you hired me to help you explore this tomb, correct?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bondoni spoke, marlow nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, that's right. When we first discovered this tomb, it felt dangerous, so we decided to hire a powerful mage. Of course, the reward is one part of it—if we find any treasures, we'll give you a share, as agreed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Then I won't be polite about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bondoni replied with a strange smile, though the other three didn't notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having already entered the underground tomb, they all began to investigate the closed, circular room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the other three busied themselves examining the magical patterns on the tomb walls, Bondoni immediately noticed the magically sealed stone door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing at the magic stone door, Bondoni deduced that this must be the magical seal those three had been talking about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Comparing the patterns on the stone door to the ones he remembered from the map, Bondoni confirmed—without doubt—this was the \"legendary ancient tomb\"!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Bondoni was extremely excited; he felt incredibly lucky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since he had received news of this tomb, he had been searching for a month without any leads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, after all that fruitless effort, luck had simply dropped this opportunity in his lap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he snuck into a human town to resupply before returning to the jungle, he happened to overhear several youngsters discussing hiring a powerful mage to explore an ancient tomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were offering a high reward—no less than fifty gold coins. But after the undead outbreak in the Corrupted Jungle, no one dared set foot in this land of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bondoni dared!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a necromancer, spending time with the undead was just daily routine for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And, more importantly—what did he hear? An ancient tomb!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, too, had been searching for an ancient tomb!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the intent of making some easy money and collecting a few living specimens for further necromancy research, Bondoni pretended to be a mage, took on their commission, and escorted the three here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, based on the comparison of the magic seal's patterns, this tomb was the very same \"Addis Tomb\" where, years ago, the \"Bloodstorm, Draconic Tongue\" sealed away the undead's treasure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had finally found it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless wealth! The undead of the Netherworld!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of it would soon be his. For today, he had even betrayed the Church—it was finally time for his reward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frenzied excitement flashed in his eyes as Bondoni lovingly caressed the magic-sealed stone door. Behind this door lay the treasure necromancers had dreamed of for generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm... This stone door looks quite similar to the one I opened above, doesn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thief, Beverly, came over as well, gazing at the door and mumbling to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her words, Bondoni grabbed her shoulder in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can open it?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled by his outburst, Beverly backed off a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, I am a thief, so I suppose I could open it, but...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glancing around at the piles of human bones, she voiced her concern,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But is this really okay? It feels a bit dangerous to just start tampering with the tomb's mechanism.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With me here, there's no danger at all. Go ahead and open it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bondoni urged her. Hearing the intensity growing in his voice, Serea was now sure he was up to something. She immediately gave an order:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dogsius, use Mind Reading!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dogsius used the Mind Reading skill; hidden in the darkness, Celia's eyes took on a faint violet hue. But as soon as Dogsius initiated Mind Reading, Bondoni immediately looked sharply around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dogsius's Mind Reading failed. To avoid exposing itself, Dogsius stopped its attempt and apologized,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forgive me, master. This man's willpower is extremely strong; without using force, I can't see into his mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Serea replied. Meanwhile, Bondoni still felt as though someone was spying on him, though he detected neither Dogsius nor the four girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh... Mr. Bondoni, there's no one else here, is there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still suspicious, Bondoni nevertheless dismissed his doubts at the thought of the undead treasure awaiting him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps I'm just being paranoid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, Captain Marlow, what about this stone door?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beverly looked to Marlow, who pretended to ponder, and then started down a reckless path...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well... let's open it. There's not much left here anyway, and it'd be a shame to not examine such a well-preserved tomb thoroughly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone back up a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beverly instructed, and the group stepped back a few paces. Beverly then stood before the stone door and cast a defensive spell on herself using a magic scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Done with her preparations, she produced a black stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A magestone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this magestone, the faded magic of the seal was hardly an obstacle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few experiments, Beverly figured out the magic flow within the seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She began channeling mana into it; when her frequency matched the seal's, the seal glowed with violet light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bzzzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light flared, and the stone door began to shake. Beverly quickly withdrew, and as the door slowly fell, everyone caught sight of what was behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wall?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be precise, it was a sealed small chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While everyone puzzled over this, the stone door settled completely and revealed a dark stone pedestal within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above it sat a ring—a bone ring, inlaid with a blue gem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the gemstone, Serea instantly activated her detection ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Addis's Bloodthirsty Banshee (Gold, blueprint): Upon use, allows one to convert corpses (female only) into Bloodthirsty Banshees (Bronze Elite+) using the Plague Graveyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bloodthirsty Banshee (Bronze Elite+): The elite light-armored troops under Demon King Addis, capable of becoming Rangers, archers, and Assassins, and may even produce rare special units.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A troop blueprint!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she had no idea how to obtain a Plague Graveyard, getting the blueprint came first!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be ready—take it by force when the time is right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Serea transmitted her thoughts to Celia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving Serea's mental command, Celia prepared to act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, the thief Beverly had already reached out to touch the bone ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(To be continued...)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-------------= Clacky's Corner -------------=\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【ദ്ദി(⩌ᴗ⩌)】\u003C\u002Fp>",1109,"2026-06-09T05:46:32.369Z",1,"novelbin.me","83470b3792882d9886fa006d4379f3dcc4e307195d2a8b1df809bab022be40d8","rebirth-in-another-world-as-the-undead-queen-chapter-87","rebirth-in-another-world-as-the-undead-queen-chapter-85",226,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-in-another-world-as-the-undead-queen-cover.jpg"]
