Transmigrating into the world of tomb raiding, I became Hu Bayi’s nephew.
I thought I could cling to a powerful ally and coast to victory, but I hit a snag from the start in the Dragon Ridge Maze.
My uncle pointed a black donkey hoof at me, looking at me like I was a rice dumpling.
Before I could explain, I heard Wang Pangzi cry out in terror from deep inside the tomb chamber:
“Lao Hu! Why is your nephew lying in the coffin?!”
Hu Bayi whipped around, and my scalp instantly prickled with dread.
If the one in the coffin was me,
then what was the thing standing here?
[Myriad Forms Mimicry] has awakened! Knowledge, martial prowess, exotic beast talents... I can make them all my own!
But Hu Bayi’s gaze grew more and more suspicious.
Until one day, I was gravely wounded protecting him, and he stood in front of me, eyes red:
“I don’t care who you are or where you came from! I only know you’re the nephew I’d lay down my life to protect!”
A good book, but a bit depressing.
