Darkness enveloped the bottom of the lake, and the light of the Nightstone grew increasingly dim.
The lifelike image of a maiden on the iron coffin added an eerie, horrifying atmosphere.
Demitrija swam forward with the Barren Tomb Guard to inspect it.
No further danger emerged.
The iron coffin stood upright at the lake bottom, its base connected to four heavy metal chains.
The chains anchored the coffin to the surrounding massive rocks.
To retrieve the iron coffin, those chains had to be severed.
The Red Duke had truly gone to great lengths to prevent the iron coffin from being taken.
Not to mention the forces stationed outside for protection,
the depth of the lake alone barred most living creatures from approaching the coffin.
The intelligent races residing in Crescent Heights primarily consisted of humans and orcs.
Even heroes would struggle to rely on their physical capabilities to dive this deep and recover the cumbersome coffin.
