The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb!-Chapter 222 - 223: The Lethal Power of Language

Just now, Otuna told Qinghan that she was urgently in need of people, and the ’Shield’ waste couldn’t be relied upon. If Qinghan could prove his abilities, she would promote him to become her confidant.

Being the queen’s personal guard sounds nice, but the dinosaurs that ruled the Jurassic are extinct, and the era where our clan was active is already in the past. Imperial rule is ancient history, she’s still dreaming of being a Spring and Autumn emperor. Sending her to a psychiatric hospital would definitely warrant a stay for observation.

This clan’s oddballs, splitting luggage is the best way to get along, try not to cluster together, repel oddballs, but Bi Shi coming to my rescue was a complete surprise, I guessed she would come, but didn’t expect her to save me.

Hmm? Wait, how did she know I was captured? Was she hiding somewhere outside all the time, secretly spying?

At this moment, Bi Shi and Qinghan were already fighting outside. Previously, Bi Shi might have won with her exceptional physical strength, engaging Qinghan in a war of attrition to wear him out.

But now Qinghan has inherited my physique, he’s indestructible with great strength, plus he knows martial arts, Superman with martial arts, who can stop him...

After a few rounds, Bi Shi was also tied up, thrown into the ’Big Bamboo’.

Qinghan lifted the knot on her back as if carrying a sack and threw her next to me.

I was knocked to the side by her, almost hitting my head on the wall, but my heart felt no ripples, even a bit amused...

"Does this make sense, does this make sense, does this make sense? I came to help you in good faith, yet you mock me?" Bi Shi glared at me angrily.

Oops, I really laughed!

But I couldn’t control myself; seeing Bi Shi in distress makes me want to laugh, although it’s not entirely mockery, even though I unwillingly admit it, I’m somewhat happy inside.

"What mockery? I’m moved to tears, which look like laughter, can’t blame me~" I defended mischievously.

"Lord Priest, I didn’t realize you two were so close..." Otuna said, in an insincere tone.

"We weren’t great before, just recently started getting along." Bi Shi is straightforward, though it sounds odd, but it left me no rebuttal.

"I heard Professor Chen’s country has reemployment support policies for laid-off women, why not give it a try? Doing a pyramid scheme on a deserted island can’t restore a nation, don’t stray further along the wrong path." Bi Shi straightened her back, advising righteously.

"How do you know I’m doing pyramid schemes... I’m not doing pyramid schemes, this is a great cause, the gates of a new world are about to open, those are volunteers, their ideals, you bunch of selfish cowards won’t understand."

After hearing Otuna’s impassioned ’speech’, Bi Shi bumped my back with her body, "Hey? Is she mentally off?"

"Your heavenly voice is out of tune, aren’t you allowed some failures from her? It’s normal! The internet says mental illness can be controlled with active treatment."

"Qinghan! Go shut their mouths, I don’t want to hear them talk." Otuna seemed on the verge of losing it.

Back then, she got ousted amid many doubts, now what she cannot stand the most... is hearing denial of everything she has done.

Our goal is to provoke her, to make her lose control.

"Look, I warned you, someone not of our kind is bound to betray. How is it now? Deceived by this pretentious scoundrel!" Bi Shi glared at the approaching Qinghan, cursing.

"It’s okay, they won’t be happy for long. You know, the former... Queen always failed at everything she did, whatever she attempts ends as a laughing stock."

"That’s right, she just leaves a mess and then feigns death to escape reality, pitiful creature, an insecure and cowardly fellow!"

"Shut up—shut up!" Otuna screamed, lunging at us, raining punches and kicks on us.

Why does one want to escape certain places, certain people, a certain memory? Because those places, people, and memories cause her pain.

Otuna’s life has been good these past few years, so she got arrogant, ’Shield’ doesn’t understand her, at least not the queen she once was. In new environments facing strangers, she must be adept, brimming with confidence.

But once she returns to the environment she fears and escapes from, encountering people familiar with her past, it triggers unbearable memories, immediately reverting her back to her original self.

Otuna’s path to ruin is known to Bi Shi and me. She wasn’t exceptionally talented in our clan, which often led to her insecurity, gradually breeding the fear of being replaced by others.

Innate abilities are not something you can want and have, like our ’Undead Body’. Her unease is akin to dysmorphophobia, always believing her genetic makeup is flawed, seeking shortcuts to optimize genes.

She often spoke of certain creatures being ’perfect’, desiring their perfect genes. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Strong desires urged her to take risks, conducting secret experiments without our knowledge. This insane obsession finally surfaced when the ’Big Bamboo’ was unearthed; she began capturing clan members for secret human experiments.

Can rice be grafted, can people be grafted? Think about the Centipede Woman, turning into that form, could she still be considered human?

But Otuna doesn’t care, she isn’t obsessed with being ’human’. As long as she becomes powerful, possessing an undead body and eternal life, she doesn’t care what she transforms into.

If she could seize our abilities or even bodies, she would have done it long ago, but unfortunately, she can’t. Her experimental project included devouring her kind, which ended in failure.

If she hadn’t died early, she would also be trapped in the Tomb Prison like me.

Could already twisted psychology be self-healing after a few years of smooth days?

The answer is no.

She’s still crazy and found allies and ’volunteers’.

Without even mentioning the impact, if her grafting experiment succeeds, her target will expand indefinitely, the world would be in complete chaos, where could my peaceful days go!

"Hey, what does changing bodies achieve? Those fancy moves are worse than before, hitting someone like pampering, this isn’t modification, it’s degeneration." Bi Shi laughed loudly, fearlessly meeting Otuna’s provocative gaze.

"Shut up! I will have a better body, this one is only temporary, they’ve helped me find genes superior to yours, soon you won’t even be worthy of being called my kind—garbage, filth, should all die, why don’t you just die?"

Oliver, wake up, I can’t die... I scoffed internally, calling her by the nickname Bi Shi gave her.

"Act!" Qinghan suddenly spoke after standing under that big uncle tree for quite a while, clutching a crystal ball.

Bi Shi and I raised our heads from the punch rain, freeing ourselves from the ropes, Bi Shi had a mini flashlight hidden in her sleeves, with a flick of her wrist, the space exploded with an ultra-bright light that could instantly blind a person.
