Chapter 158 The Seduction of Props
Yin Ci's target this time was indeed the "welfare prop". Now that she had put on the "airbag", where would she go next? Wen Nan stood at the door of the staff dormitory, his eyes fixed on the secret tunnel just below the drainage outlet of the headquarters building opposite.
"elder brother!"
A familiar voice sounded from downstairs.
Wen Nan lowered his eyes and saw a petite figure appear in front of the flower bed downstairs of the dormitory building, looking up at him.
"Qiqi?"
Qiqi raised her hand and used two fingers to make a square screen in front of her, indicating Wen Nan to check the message.
Wen Nan opened the chat box from the system and saw several messages -
[Slave Master: Silver Thorn's goal is likely to be the same as your mission goal. If you let her successfully enter the furnace, you will be hard to defend against.]
[Yu Nu-Jun: For safety reasons, I need to leave. Chase at full speed and completely destroy the enemy before they enter the furnace to prevent future troubles.]
[Slave Master: Take Qiqi with you, be careful not to lure the tiger away from the mountain, Master]
Wen Nan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Everything was arranged clearly by her own male maid.
After closing the chat box, Wen Nan borrowed the welfare props from Gu Jinxing and Hu Jiayao, and gave one to Guo Xiaofu and the other to Qiqi.
In the blink of an eye, it was completely dark.
Under the cover of night, the assassin will be able to move more freely, and the "cause of the disease" in Wen Nan's hand will be easier to be stolen by the opponent.
The night is long and dreams are many. We must enter the furnace as soon as possible, complete this last main task, and then leave here.
A few minutes later, they were ready and gathered at the secret entrance to the tunnel in the flower bed.
The secret passage leading to the underground is divided into three stages:
At the top is a corridor similar to a water park slide, about twenty meters deep, and so narrow that it can be described as "extremely narrow at first, only enough for one person to pass through."
Passing through the narrow corridor and going down, there are many forked roads. If viewed from the side, they should look like countless octopus tentacles, intertwined and intertwined. Standing at the fork in the road, Wen Nan just felt that this place was like the Pansi Cave.
After passing through this Pansi Cave, the scorching furnace should be underneath.
However, they got stuck at the beginning of the second stage.
Those holes of different sizes are embedded in the inner wall, like the compound eyes on a spider's head, so densely packed that it is impossible to tell which hole is the correct path leading to the furnace.
Yang Mingzhong took the tiger he had caught by the flower bed and quickly got into one of the holes, saying, "I'll explore the way first."
Huang Yan and Guo Xiaofu also chose a hole and went in. "Let's split up and act quickly. Boss, wait for our news."
Wen Nan nodded and watched the three people leave, then found a clean place nearby and sat on the ground. He turned on location sharing in the guild group and pointed out the direction for them to return.
Qiqi squatted beside Wen Nan, looking vigilantly at the entrance to the corridor with a fierce look in her eyes. She looked as if as long as there was danger approaching, she would pounce on it like a mad dog to ensure Wen Nan's safety.
Wen Nan turned his head, looked at her profile, and smiled. Qi Qi didn't look back at him, but just said softly: "Brother, don't worry, I'm here, no one can hurt you."
Wen Nan wanted to say that, given Jun Wuming's high rank, the person he should be worried about now is probably the person on the opposite side, not him.
But he didn't say anything, just raised his hand and rubbed Qiqi's soft hair.
The exploration of the other three people was not smooth.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed and there was no progress.
Wen Nan reached into the equipment reserve column and gently stroked the hard shell of the marker with his fingertips.
Streamlined design, minimalist style, smooth surface...
He kept his eyes blank, tracing the shape of the pen while quickly sorting out in his mind the various things that happened during the day, as well as the different scenes that appeared in this copy earlier.
Wen Nan's brows knitted unconsciously.
On the back seat of the car in the basement, after Yang Jingyuan was accidentally stabbed by the end of the marker, the soul that was supposed to be sent to the furnace suddenly appeared...
They completed the fourth main task, using Mr. Jiao to successfully enter the laboratory and cut off the marker. Guan Ailin lost her memory, and when Wen Nan sat on the ground and accidentally sent the marker into the data line, Guan Ailin hurried back and confided in Wen Nan anxiously...
And even earlier, deep in Li Shuyi's memory, she kept the part of her longing for her late husband, and the text message she sent to Wei Junjie across the dungeon because of that longing...
According to Yang Mingzhong, that text message should not have existed, let alone been sent out, but for some reason, he, who was still Wei Junjie at the time, received it...
These thoughts, over and over again, kept circling in Wen Nan's mind.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
His fingertips moved quickly around the pitch-black marker, stroking it over and over again.
He himself did not realize that his behavior at this moment was very similar to that of the old Hobbit who was bewitched by the Lord of the Rings. Once his finger was on the marker, it was difficult to move it away.
Wen Nan: [9527.]
9527: [I am here.]
Wen Nan: [What if I want to take a key item related to a main quest from this instance? ]
9527: ...
There was silence in my mind for ten seconds, and then that cold mechanical voice sounded -
9527: [This behavior is extremely dangerous! Once detected by the task settlement system of the corresponding instance, you will not be able to complete the task settlement, and will be treated as a task failure or accidental death of the player, and the account will be deleted and placed in the waiting space! ]
Wen Nan: ...
That is to say, you can’t take it away, and people will send it.
Wen Nan sat up and took out the black rhinoceros beetle from the equipment sharing area next to him. He pinched the beetle's pair of antennae and threw it into his own equipment reserve column.
Mr. Horn fell belly up into the equipment spare grid. Several tiny hands and feet kept sliding in the air, trying to turn himself over again.
Wen Nan picked up the marker and poked Mr. Horn's hard shell with the pen, turning it over.
Mr. Jiao was poked by the marker pen and alertly straightened his body. His pair of tentacles swept across the marker pen and stopped when they touched the metal broken end of the marker pen.
Then, as if it was suddenly activated, the two alloy pincers on its mouthparts stretched out and began to gnaw on the outer shell of the marker pen with a "crunching" sound.
Wen Nan paid close attention to the prompts in the system.
It was confirmed that while Mr. Jiao was gnawing on the shell of the marker pen, he did not receive any message that any "key props" were destroyed.
In the blink of an eye, the hard black pen shaft was bitten into pieces, and an object with a gleaming metallic luster fell out from inside.
