Chapter 3
"It's right under the wooden floor you're standing on. If you break the floor, you'll find the main switch."
After learning the exact location, Jiang Lele looked down at his feet. After taking a closer look, he found that the wooden floor under his feet seemed to be no different from the others. If it weren't for Xiaogua's reminder, most people would not have noticed that there was a problem here.
But before she smashed the floor, she had to find a suitable reason to convince others.
Otherwise you'll seem a little crazy.
Jiang Lele cleared his throat and tried to make up an excuse. "Everyone, I suddenly had a guess. Is it possible that the switch of this trap mechanism is hidden right under our feet?"
I thought other people would have some doubts about this statement.
The next second,
Players who had already heard the system prompt said: "Sister Lele is right, then let's just smash the floor beneath our feet!"
Jiang Hongyu also cooperated very well and said, "Do you need my help? My dagger should be sharp enough to pierce through the wooden floor directly."
After saying that, the flying dagger flew to Jiang Lele's feet and pierced into the wooden floor steadily.
"Just use this dagger to pry open the floor." Jiang Hongyu reminded across the corridor.
Things went exceptionally smoothly, which surprised Jiang Lele a little.
Seeing that everyone trusted her very much, she didn't waste any more time. She squatted down, gripped the dagger tightly, and pressed down hard.
With a "bang", the solid wooden floor was pried open, revealing the main switch hidden inside.
There is also a sign on it that says [Trap Master Switch].
Jiang Lele: “There really is a switch.”
Jiang Hongyu: ...If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have been so stubborn.
The other players all showed excitement.
That’s great! After this time, they can be sure that as long as they follow Jiang Lele throughout the whole process, they will be able to avoid all dangers and pass the level directly!
With a "click", Jiang Lele turned off the mechanism.
Jiang Hongyu tried to let the dagger pass through the corridor again, and this time no silver needles were shot out.
Jiang Lele took the lead and walked through the corridor.
Under Xiaogua's guidance, she found the switch of the secret room and opened the door manually.
In an instant, the ground in the entire corridor began to tremble slightly, and dust particles in the air floated everywhere.
A hidden stone door slowly popped out from the wall in front of Jiang Lele.
"It's a secret room!" Jiang Hongyu covered the wound on his arm with a surprised expression on his face.
If the melon-eating system had not pointed out the rare items here today, Jiang Hongyu would have turned around and left after discovering the traps in this corridor.
Because from the outside, he couldn't see or imagine that there was a hidden secret room at the end of the corridor.
When ordinary players come to rare-level dungeons, they are too busy avoiding other dangers to have time to play with such mechanisms.
The other players walked through the corridor and arrived in front of the secret room.
No one can guarantee that there are no other dangers in the secret room.
No one moved, but just stared at Jiang Lele, waiting for her next move.
"Host, there's nothing dangerous in this secret room, but the players behind you are very dangerous. After all, the items inside are rare and hard to avoid being coveted. How about I think of a way to give the other players..."
He only said half of the words, but it was obvious that Xiaogua wanted to silence him.
Everyone shuddered unconsciously, their faces pale as they retreated half a step, and explained in panic: "Sister Lele, you found the switch, so whatever is in the secret room naturally belongs to you. We don't want it!"
All of Jiang Hongyu's dissatisfaction and desire to compete disappeared the moment the Xiaogua system found the trap switch.
So he retreated half a step and explained, "I just got injured, so I won't go in and cause trouble for you."
Seeing that everyone was so willing to make way, Jiang Lele smiled slightly and said, "In that case, I won't refuse. Just wait for me outside for a while."
Xiaogua was also puzzled and muttered, "I remember that the players in this dungeon before were not so humble?"
Jiang Lele put away her smile, turned around and stepped into the secret room.
The secret room was about the size of a living room, dark and windowless, and the air was filled with the musty smell of dust.
Jiang Lele went in in the dark and quickly found the treasure chest in the center of the secret room.
After opening the box, I saw that there was a pocket-sized mace inside.
Xiaogua was surprised again. "This Ruyi Mace is a very rare all-purpose item. It can be used for both offense and defense, and has many other uses. If you use it properly, you can crush ghosts in dungeons below the rare level in a one-on-one situation with this item!"
Jiang Lele's eyes lit up and he quickly picked it up, "How do I use this?"
"As long as you think about it, the size and weight of this Ruyi mace can change in an instant. Try it."
Jiang Lele tried to control it with his mind.
Get bigger, bigger, and bigger!
Get heavier, get heavier, get heavier for me!
The mace, which was only the size of a silver needle just now, suddenly grew to two meters long.
The mace that Jiang Lele was holding in his hand fell to the ground due to its weight, making a loud "clang" sound.
Jiang Lele dragged it across the ground, making a harsh sound of friction against the floor.
"Actually, this mace can be made even bigger, but you'd better be careful." Xiaogua reminded rationally.
Jiang Lele made the mace smaller again, carried it on his shoulder and walked out of the secret room.
After coming out of the secret room, Jiang Lele saw many expectant yet cautious expressions.
She took the initiative to show the mace to everyone, "There's a mace in there."
All the players, including Jiang Hongyu, showed envious expressions.
This was Jiang Lele's first time to come into contact with a dungeon, and he was able to find props in this dangerous dungeon, and these props looked quite powerful.
Although they were envious, everyone had a tacit understanding and did not dare to have any bad thoughts about the props in Jiang Lele's hands.
"Oh my god! Host, hurry up! That water ghost's endurance is too short. It's almost over in such a short time! Hurry up!"
Xiaogua suddenly urged.
Jiang Lele put the Ruyi mace into his pocket and quickly walked to the front of the group. "Everyone, follow me. Let's continue our journey."
Following Xiaogua's instructions, Jiang Lele slowly headed towards the water ghost.
The others looked a little excited and followed closely behind.
About a few minutes later, Jiang Lele arrived at the scene.
"Brother Chen, you are so mean. I guess my legs will be too weak to go to work tomorrow~" The shy voice of the delicate female ghost spread through the crack of the door to the corridor.
The players' bodies trembled with excitement.
Are we really going to watch the live version?
Jiang Lele tried to turn the doorknob, but found that the door was locked.
But if we delay a little longer, the two people inside will be done.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lele narrowed his eyes slightly, took out the mace, instantly enlarged it, and then smashed it hard at the door.
There was a loud "boom".
The door that was originally equipped with a forbidden mechanism collapsed with a bang.
Countless dust was stirred up around, spreading into a thick smoke that enveloped the eyes.
"Ah! What's going on?" The female ghost was obviously frightened. She screamed and quickly hid backwards.
The water ghost Chen Chen was obviously also surprised. He quickly picked up the clothes from the bed and put them on, gently comforting her: "Baby, don't be afraid, put on your clothes first."
He was also wondering, under normal circumstances, shouldn't any player be able to get here now?
How did these people get here?
Jiang Lele rushed into the room, carrying a huge mace in one hand, and explored the environment inside the room with a curious look on her face.
When the smoke dissipated, Jiang Lele saw that there was no one on the bed. Although it was full of ambiguous traces, there was nothing on it at the moment.
"? What about the live version?"
"Oh, what a pity! These two were already done when you first arrived here. That water ghost was truly too weak to last ten minutes! Otherwise, the host would have definitely seen the live version!"
The corners of Jiang Lele's mouth twitched.
She was quite looking forward to the live version, but it ended in less than ten minutes?
Is this guy okay?
The other players all showed disappointed expressions.
The props were not theirs, and they didn’t even get to see the live version of the fun.
"Le Le, be careful!" Jiang Hongyu's voice suddenly rang out.
Jiang Lele raised his head and saw a female ghost with a pale face flying towards him. Blood was constantly oozing from her horrible eye sockets, which was very disgusting.
Jiang Lele quickly stepped back, raised the mace in his hand, and smashed it towards the female ghost.
Get bigger, bigger, bigger!
The mace flying in the air suddenly grew to the size of a pillar. Due to the sudden increase in weight, it fell down suddenly and smashed the female ghost directly into the floor.
Just as Jiang Lele breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly felt a cold touch on her back, as if a cold wind was blowing into her clothes from the back of her neck, giving her a chilly and eerie feeling.
"Host, the water ghost ran behind you!"
Jiang Lele suddenly turned around and retreated a long distance.
I saw a water ghost with bloodshot lips standing in front of me, dirty water dripping from his tattered white clothes.
At some point, the entire floor of the room had been covered in black water. The air was also damp, and the exposed surface of the skin felt a sickening stickiness.
Xiaogua also wanted to help, and started to try all kinds of methods: "Host, Shuigui hates it most when people say that he is short-lived and is a fast boy. If you scold him a few times, maybe it will calm him down."
Jiang Lele hesitated for a moment before pointing at the water ghost Chen Chen, "Fast boy, fast boy, fast boy."
After saying these three sentences, Chen Chen's body froze in place.
Jiang Lele thought it worked.
Xiaogua held his head and screamed, "It's over! He's angry! Host, run!"
Damn! What a lousy idea you gave me.
Jiang Lele didn't have time to complain. He summoned back the mace and ran out of the room frantically.
The next second, Chen Chen's heart-wrenching roar was heard in the room, and they chased out together.
The other players stared at what was happening in front of them in a daze.
"Brother Jiang, what should we do now?" The players who didn't know what to do looked at Jiang Hongyu inquiringly.
Jiang Hongyu coughed lightly and said, "The ghosts are all chasing Lele, let's not make trouble and stay here for now."
Originally, Jiang Hongyu wanted to help Jiang Lele, but when he thought about these novice players who had almost no life-saving skills, it was safer to stay.
Jiang Lele ran for a long time and could no longer see the shadow of the water ghost behind him.
"Don't stop. That water ghost has locked onto your scent. Even if he can't see you, he can still find you."
Jiang Lele: "...So I'll just keep running like this?"
Xiaogua quickly came up with an idea and smiled, "It's okay. Go a little further and turn left. There's a wild ghost over there that hasn't been subdued yet. These wild ghosts have a strong sense of territory. You can lure the water ghost over there, and then let them fight a little. Then you can get away."
"I understand." Jiang Lele curled up an evil smile, turned around and turned left.
