But it could be that those mechanisms had all been triggered already during that earlier event, having fulfilled their purpose in killing those people, Chiang Xiao continued walking for a while and it remained very quiet.
And she had already come across a corpse.
It was extremely dry inside, and although the corpse had decayed, it hadn't turned completely into a mushy mess of rotten flesh. Instead, it largely retained its form, with a skeletal frame draped in gray-black skin and clothing.
Inside the Silent Tomb, darkness loomed everywhere, and the pale light from her flashlight cast upon this corpse, sending a chill down Chiang Xiao's spine and causing her palms to sweat uncontrollably.
She couldn't help but feel terrified.
Having found nothing here, she had no choice but to continue deeper inside.
