Chapter 217: Chapter 217: Final double doors

After journeying for hours and hours into the tomb, ducking through semi - collapsed terrain, squeezing through tight walls, and even jumping three meters across a black abyss, the whole adventurer group finally arrived at the supposed last room of the tomb. They knew that this was the last obstacle from the treasure room because the large, gigantic, double doors were intricately carved with depictions of a man's heroic triumph against a whole army of monsters. "This is it. General Grievous' final resting place." Sir Jon's words were directly transmitted to Michael's shadow, courtesy of none other than Fudge, the good ninja. Meanwhile, another voice came through the shadows. This time, the voice was more commanding. It was Butch, the leader of the HammerStone adventurers. "Remember. We care not for the treasures inside, but the triumph of its first exploration. The HammerStone group's reputation rests solely on our shoulders. We shall make them proud." Fudge had eyes and ears everywhere inside the tomb, allowing Michael to hear everyone's strategies and preparations for the upcoming final door. This was a little bit strange for Michael to hear because he thought that everyone would push themselves to try and be the first ones to open the door. Yet from the look on their faces, it seemed like they were all hesitant to be the first ones in. "Oh look, Master! All the leaders are gathering in one spot." Sir Jon, the representative of the Knights, took charge and gathered all of the other large names in the group. Butch joined him, as well as two other leaders from the most prominent adventuring groups in the campaign, the Infernal Adventurers and the Bears Group. These four leaders talked amongst each other and planned their respective roles in the upcoming event. Sheina walked up to Michael. "Shall I insist that you be included in their meeting, Lord Michael? It is only fair." She sounded a bit upset at the others for neglecting to include Michael, as if they knew he was even here in the first place. "It's fine," he said. "I don't want to interfere in their plans. After all, I've got plans of my own." Michael scanned the whole chamber, with his normal eyes seeing stone brick walls swallowed up by mud and soil. It looked like everything was normal. Yet, with his supreme sensitivity to mana, Michael was sensing that there was some sort of spell hidden inside this very chamber itself. All he should be seeing was Earth mana randomly present in the walls, but curiously, he saw unnatural crystallized formations that should not be naturally made. Someone manipulated the walls of the chamber to make it look like a normal room. ChatJK3, can you decipher the magic theory behind this mystery? Michael even went to the wall and physically touched the recessed stone brick wall, feeling the wetness of the moss growing on its cracks. It certainly did feel real, yet Michael knew it was all an illusion.
