Female Novel
Chapter 677
Chapter 677
They were all trapped in the darkroom on the hillside, Although breezes blew in through the cracks, it
was still stuffy and pitch dark.
Unluckily trapped with her unreliable brother Rafael, Christina touched something weird when she was
about to argue with him. Lighting it with the torch, she saw a skeleton.
“Holy shit!” She exclaimed in horror.
Subconsciously, she hid behind Rafael. What the hell was that? Compared to “Derek” in the front,
Christina was more afraid of such “surprise”.
Rafael glared at her and wished to ask her to shut up, but a series of reproach came from the other
side.
Not knowing the situation, Patrick and others in the opposite darkroom thought Rafael was assaulting
Christina upon her shriek. They shouted, “Rafael, behave yourself!”
“You pervert! How dare you harass a woman?”
“Rafael, don’t you think we are helpless even if you trap us here. You’re utterly isolated and you need
our help… We have men outside and on Barbarian Island. These islands aren’t as mysterious as you
think. We can bring in people outside. Several atomic bombs can ruin here!” They threatened.
There was nothing they couldn’t do. After all, it was possible for Rafael to turn hostile to them who were
neither soft-hearted.
Hearing their scolding, Rafael’s face fell terrible.
Of course, he knew he should put the overall situation first and weigh the pros and cons. He also knew
how capable Patrick and the others were. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made great efforts to guide
them to the island.
He hadn’t intended to break up with them yet, but he was pissed off by their blame.
“What do they think about whether I’d kill or rape you?” Rafael satirized, glaring at Christina.
Guilty, she stuttered, “Ask yourself. It’s because you’re too immoral and rude.” That was why Patrick
and others thought he was violating her out of Christina’s scream.
Rafael snapped, “Stay away from me!”
Enough of pretending polite, Christina snorted and took three steps back with a straight face,
She wasn’t making a fuss but was scared by the skeleton subconsciously. Rafael took Derek’s body, so
she involuntarily felt intimate with him.
Rafael didn’t have family affection. Christina was also no more than a pawn. To him, blood relation was
ridiculous.
Anyway, trapped in the same room, they disliked each other.
Not to worry Patrick, Christina shouted at them that she was fine.
Even if we die here, you won’t. Because we deserve death, but you don’t!” Rafael mocked her with
sarcasm,
Looking around at the dark surroundings, Christina only dared curse him inly since she had to count on
him to flee there,
Rafael held up the torch and walked back along the wall, looking for the mobile stone brick mechanism.
Christina frequently looked back at the ghastly sitting white bone, indicating the man’s posture at death:
raising his head and staring at the opposite wall.
Nobody knew why the victim was still observing the opposite wall even at the last moment of life.
Christina kept thinking about the skeleton. Nonetheless, Rafael was not in the mood to mind her, let
alone a pile of bones. It was normal for a cave to have such things.

Contrary to his wishes, this darkroom was smaller than he had imagined and he failed to find any
suspicious mechanism all the way to the end.
Rafael stopped to think. Absent-minded, Christina asked, “Is here a cemetery?” But she bumped into
his back upon speaking.
“Just shut up!” Rafael yelled fiercely.
Other women might be afraid of him, but Christina didn’t buy it who was open to persuasion, but not to
coercion. She retorted, “So what if I do!”
With exploring spirit, she liked to ask and couldn’t stand Rafael being impatient, who even humiliated
her with the appearance of Derek. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Rafael was educated. If he hadn’t been pissed off, he wouldn’t have yelled at her so impolitely.
To lecture someone, yelling was a low-level animal behavior in his opinion. He usually employed
frauding on power, coercion, and threatening,
“Exactly, here’s a cemetery with many the dead. Your shouting has disturbed them…” Rafael’s tone
slowed down as if he had kindly reminded her before, but he deliberately didn’t finish his words.
Christina began to make blind and disorderly conjectures.
Indeed, she feared dead people most. Rafael hit the nail on the head.
Suddenly, she quieted down, breathing carefully. In the dark, Rafael raised his eyebrows, peeked at
her, and cursed in his heart, “Idiot.” if he had such a stupid sister since childhood, it would definitely be
entertaining,
“Could that over there be our ancestor? It doesn’t look like a Barbarian,” Christina queried cautiously.
Since they found nothing, Rafael walked back with the torch. With Christina mentioning “ancestor”, he
taunted, “Did you heed its lower body? Was it male or female?”
Christina replied seriously, “Yes. It’s male.”
Bemused, Rafael burst into laughter.
He wasn’t frivolous in talking and joking. Normally, his forged smile always reeked of misanthropy, but
now it wasn’t.
“How come, Mary, so smart a woman, gave birth to a fool like you?”

His sarcasm was obvious, but Christina was fed up with counterattacking.
“I’m serious. It was sitting. I don’t know if it died with a grievance or everlasting regret…” she said
solemnly. “His head is against the back wall, raising high, looking at the opposite wall even at death.”
Originally wishing to continue belittling Christina, Rafael immediately lit up the opposite wall with his
torch upon hearing the latter part of her words.
He got surprised. Just like that recorded on the main body of the hillside, the mural here was of great
scale likewise. It was not about the daily life of the Barbarians, but the answer he wanted.
It turned out to be here.
The mural recorded the Third Island, the islands, the meteorite flow catastrophe, the sarcophagus, and
the three
Scepters…
Instead of keeping contemplating the mural, Christina plucked up her courage to light up the skeleton
with the torch again. Indeed, there were two dusty cups beside, of which she couldn’t tell the material.
They must be very important since the dead tightly gripped them even at the last moment of life,
Christina bent down, trying her best to avoid the bones, and picked up the two cups to have a closer
look.
“What did you find?” Hearing the sound, Rafael turned around and asked. The girl was unsmart but
with amazing luck.
“Nothing,” Christina responded tonelessly, on the alert subconsciously.
“Take it out!” Rafael immediately changed her face and demanded coldly.
“They’re not golden. Just two normal cups. I didn’t want to steal it,” she explained.
With a guilty conscience, Christina turned around in a hurry. However, the darkroom was too narrow.
With a kick of her foot, the skeleton scattered all over the ground.
Christina got goosebumps all over her body.
Taking the opportunity to grab the cups, Rafael wiped the dust with his elbow’s sleeve. The familiar
pattern which only existed in legends appeared. He muttered, “The Holy Grail.”
It was said the Holy Grail could resurrect the dead.
And two of them could exchange one life for another.
Not in the mood to analyze, Christina grabbed Rafael’s hand and asked in a shiver, “Hey, should we
reassemble these bones?”
Now she didn’t give a fuck about the mural or Holy Grails. She had offended the ancestor she couldn’t
afford to!
