Chapter 173: Gelton Manor 23

"Passing the Mushroom Garden" was not difficult at all, because at Su Qingyun's suggestion, the four people first found Xiaoxi, and then picked mushrooms according to the varieties on the mushroom purchase order issued by Xiaoxi.

Nothing strange happened during the mushroom picking process. Everyone followed the rules and walked out of the mushroom garden in less than an hour.

The next scene copy is "Silent Swamp".

The rules of passage in "Silent Swamp" are very simple, that is, do not make any noise while passing through.

The four people stood at the entrance and looked at the swamp with black smoke. They didn't speak to each other because everyone felt that this level was very difficult.

Not making any noise does not just mean that they cannot speak, but also that they should not make any noise during the entire process of moving forward.

However, walking in the black swamp will inevitably cause splashing sounds. If someone falls or sinks, they may also cry for help. How is it possible not to make any sound?

In the end, it was Su Qingyun who found the solution. She drew a ball on the palm of Xu Xinghe's hand and made a walking motion.

Xu Xinghe understood what she meant. She smiled and asked him to imagine that a huge transparent round bead fell into the swamp.

Su Qingyun was able to come up with this idea because when she was a child, she and her parents played with this kind of ball in the water park.

At that time, some people named this amusement facility "Space Walk".

Su Qingyun asked everyone to get into the ball, and then everyone worked together to walk on the ball, and the ball rolled slowly and silently.

Four people passed this level successfully.

After safely passing the swamp, the four people entered the underground black forest, where they saw traces of a fire for warming themselves in an open space.

It seems that Ye Jian and the other three also crossed the Silent Swamp and entered the Black Forest.

"What on earth are these three chasing after that makes them walk so fast?" It was Qin Shu who complained.

He was afraid of death, and his joy when Yang Bingyan pulled him from the manor was only because he didn't have to deduct points anymore, not because he wanted to go on the adventure with everyone.

The three did not answer his question. At this time, several strange "cuckoo cuckoo" sounds were heard from the sky.

Xu Xinghe and Su Qingyun looked up, while Yang Bingyan and Qin Shu shrank their necks in fear.

"Gu, gu, gu" Along with the strange cry, several black shadows began to circle in the sky, and the figures were like ghosts in the dark night.

Yang Bingyan quickly hid beside Xu Xinghe, and Qin Shu went to seek Su Qingyun's protection.

At this time, a black shadow rushed towards the four people. Su Qingyun quickly raised the electric shock stick and pressed the switch.

With a "puff" sound, a big bird covered in black fell down.

As the big bird fell, the "cuckoo cuckoo" sounds became more frequent and it felt like there were strange birds above the four people's heads.

"We seem to be surrounded." Yang Bingyan lowered her body and squeezed closer to Xu Xinghe.

Xu Xinghe didn't say anything. He raised his bow and aimed at the dark things.

Su Qingyun pressed the stun gun switch again. This time she increased the current. More strange birds fell, and the fluttering sounds were endless, as if meat dumplings were raining from the sky.

Su Qingyun's actions may have angered the strange birds. Their cooing sounds turned into wows, and then they swooped down towards the four people like arrows.

Xu Xinghe shot an arrow, and Su Qingyun pressed the electric shock switch again.

But there were too many strange birds, and the black forest was too dark. Although Su Qingyun's attacks could hit everything within reach, her eyes could not see them all.

Perhaps these strange birds also discovered that the main attacker was Su Qingyun. The moment they rushed down, they suddenly changed their route and began to fly towards Su Qingyun.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qin Shu quickly abandoned Su Qingyun's protection and ran quickly to Xu Xinghe.

Su Qingyun wanted to press the electric shock switch again, but it was obviously too late, so she had to raise her arms to protect her head.

Xu Xinghe was so anxious that he wanted to run over, but unfortunately he was held on both sides by Yang Bingyan and Qin Shu, and he couldn't move.

At this critical moment, a figure appeared out of nowhere. He pulled Su Qingyun behind him, then waved his hand. A flash of white light cut off all the swooping strange birds, splitting them in two.

Blood splattered all over the floor.

When Su Qingyun saw someone pulling her away, she raised her head from her shock and saw that the other person was wearing a military coat. She exclaimed.

"Huh? What's that? If you can't fight, don't take the initiative. Luckily, your fiancé and I arrived in time."

Without listening to the voice, Su Qingyun knew that the other person was Ye Jian just by listening to the tone of voice.

"The system gave a hint that the ultimate mission of the "Gerton Manor" copy is to find Du Xiaoyue." Su Qingyun eagerly told Ye Jian the information he knew.

Ye Jian uttered an "oh" and then laughed. He also sighed, "I thought it was a love story, but the story changed halfway through and I found Du Xiaoyue. Du Xiaoyue is not..."

He raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Xinghe who was surrounded by Yang Bingyan and Qin Shu.

He smiled, "Maybe our special administrator is trying to steal my girl and is deliberately doing this."

Su Qingyun didn't understand and wanted to ask, but at this time, another group of strange birds swooped down.

"Walk."

Ye Jian pulled her and rushed into the dense forest.

Ye Jian ran very fast. Su Qingyun was pulled forward by him and felt like her legs were about to fly.

However, this method was very useful. After those strange birds rushed into the dense forest, they were blocked outside by the branches. Su Qingyun could only hear the sound of the strange birds hitting the tree trunks behind him, one after another.

After running for another ten meters, fewer and fewer strange birds flew in. Su Qingyun was almost exhausted from running. She broke free from Ye Jian's hand and stopped.

"I can't run anymore." She put her hands on her hips and gasped.

"Even if you can't run anymore, you have to run. You've startled the black crow. This bird is very evil. It will follow you wherever you go in the woods."

"Were you alarmed?"

"No, the zoologist said so."

"Zoologist?"

"Beastmaster."

Xin Yi.

Speaking of Xin Yi, Su Qingyun asked Ye Jian, "Where are they?"

"Go find the way up."

"Then why are you here?"

"Wait for you."

"How did you know I would come?"

"You forgot that we are allies and we are in tune with each other, don't you understand?"

"I don't have any telepathy."

"Then how did you find this place?"

Su Qingyun pointed to the goggles and said, "The goggles you gave me can see your footprints."

Because she raised her hand, Su Qingyun sensed the soul-calming stone fragment in her glove. She quickly took off her glove and handed the fragment to Ye Jian.

"I found another one, here you go."

Ye Jian took the fragment and looked at it, then suddenly laughed, "I chased it here, but I didn't expect you to have found it back there."

"What's the meaning?"

"This is the piece we got in Soul Lake before. After the "Gerton Manor" dungeon was opened, everything we had disappeared. In fact, this dungeon wanted to make this fragment disappear."

"If you want the copy to disappear, why not just make it disappear?"

Doesn’t the strange world have this power?

Ye Jian told her very confidently, "No, the energy of the Soul-Calming Stone is stronger than the strange world. If it hadn't been broken, the strange world would never have appeared."

After Ye Jian finished speaking, he asked Su Qingyun to smile at him again.

Su Qingyun smiled.

Ye Jian grabbed something with one hand.

He spread out his hands, and Su Qingyun saw a small diamond-shaped bottle tied with a black rope.

He put the fragments in, sealed it tightly, and then hung it around Su Qingyun's neck.

"Why did you give it to me?"

"I think you are my lucky god, so I'll leave this thing to you for safekeeping from now on."

"Leave it to me for safekeeping? I don't know if we can meet in the future."

"It cannot be removed. There is no such option." After Ye Jian finished speaking, he raised his knife and a crow with a sharp beak fell to the ground, splitting into two again.
