Gu Mian: "..."
That's enough! Your face isn't suited for making such cute expressions!
"Get someone else! Otherwise, I'm not playing with you anymore!"
Zhou Ye: "...Okay."
A moment later.
Moza, Xu Kun, Jiang Bai, Gu Xiaobei, Qin Huaizhou, and Mei Zi appeared in turn.
Qin Huaizhou: "Old Zhou, why did you invite me over so late at night? Are you planning a barbecue party...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Ye interrupted him: "Go inside first, we can talk later."
"What?" Qin Huaizhou was stunned for a moment before he noticed the ominous-looking portal in the distance. He then silently shut his mouth and tightly gripped the hand of the person next to him.
[Enter the portal?]
Zhou Ye and the others said in unison, "Yes!"

Qin Huaizhou was somewhat speechless: "Does this mean we get a buff every time we enter a time portal?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Xu Kun stared intently at Zhou Ye, who was still holding Gu Mian's hand. "Hey, isn't that enough? Haven't you held hands enough yet?"
Zhou blushed slightly at her words, her hands clenching involuntarily before slowly relaxing. She then forced herself to remain calm and stared straight ahead: "Something seems off over there. Should we go take a look?"
“Something is definitely not right.” Jiang Bai said coldly, giving off an unapproachable vibe.
"What?" Zhou was taken aback. He had just said it casually, but he didn't expect there to be a real situation.
Jiang Bai glanced at him sideways, his eyes flashing with a chilling light: "Didn't you say that after you saw it?"
Zhou also sensed this cold light. He glanced at Jiang Bai thoughtfully, then seemed to understand something and fell silent, simply meeting his gaze in silence.
Gu Mian: "..."
Such...such a powerful killing intent!
Moza, Qin Huaizhou, and Meizi huddled in the back, trembling.
How...how did they suddenly start fighting amongst themselves!
Gu Xiaobei knew what was going on, but he was also a little annoyed, so he didn't try to ease the tension. Instead, he crossed his arms and watched coldly with a disgruntled expression.
Gu Mian: "..."
What happened?
Why is the atmosphere so heavy?
She needs to find a way to alleviate the situation!
Got it!
"I have lots of pickled chicken feet here, would you like some before you go fight monsters?"
Jiang Bai: "..."
Zhou Ye: "..."
Like a fully inflated balloon being punctured, the tense atmosphere immediately eased.
Jiang Bai glanced helplessly at the person who looked completely bewildered, and said somewhat dejectedly, "I don't want to eat."
After saying that, he turned and walked away without looking back.
Gu Mian: "..."
If you don't want to eat, then don't eat! Why are you throwing a tantrum?
She then looked at Zhou Ye and Xu Kun, and asked aggressively, "Are you going to eat or not?"
Judging from her posture, it seemed like if the two of them said they wouldn't eat, she would immediately go berserk and hit them.
Xu Kun and Zhou Ye paused for a moment, then said in unison, "Eat!"
"Hmm." Gu Mian's expression immediately softened.
"Um... I want to eat some too, is that okay?" Qin Huaizhou cautiously raised one arm. His favorite snack was pickled chicken feet, and he really couldn't resist this strong temptation!
Gu Mian: "Okay!"
Before Gu Mian could even call him over, a huge explosion was heard in the distance.
"Old Bai!" Xu Kun's expression changed, and he drew his Tang sword and ran wildly towards the direction from which the explosion came.
Gu Mian, Zhou Ye, Gu Xiaobei, and others took out their weapons and followed closely behind.
...
This is a narrow, dark path, with countless mounds of graves on both sides.
Jiang Bai had already used his innate Eye of Detection to examine this area, so he knew that these burial mounds contained countless sleeping mummies.
But just now, when he stepped into this place, he keenly sensed something was wrong. These mummies seemed to have been activated!
Jiang Bai's gaze cautiously swept over the mound of earth, where the mummy seemed to be stirring restlessly, as if it could revive at any moment.
He cautiously and slowly retreated, preparing to call his teammates over to deal with the situation together.
Otherwise, if so many mummies were to revive at the same time, he wouldn't be able to handle it all by himself!
However, as soon as he took a step back, the mummies crawled out of the burial mound at an incredible speed and rushed towards him!
Jiang Bai turned and ran!
But he was a step too slow and couldn't escape!
Countless bandages rushed towards him from behind, instantly wrapping him up tightly and leaving him suspended in mid-air.
Fortunately, he had prepared in advance. When he retreated, he took a landmine from his backpack and held it in his hand. When his body was wrapped in bandages, his first action was to throw the landmine outwards with force.
The next second, he was wrapped in bandages and suspended in mid-air, while a landmine fell to the ground with a loud explosion!
...
"Holy crap! Egyptian mummies?!" Gu Xiaobei stared dumbfounded at the densely packed mummy figures on the path, holding his meteor hammer.
[Mummy: Alien creature (Tier 4), Health, Attack 1000, Speed 700, Defense 1500.]
Xu Kun looked at the giant white cocoon hanging in mid-air, let out a curse, then slightly bent his knees, jumped up into the air, and slashed at the giant cocoon with his sword.
Qin Huaizhou was so shocked his jaw almost dropped: "Uh...aren't you afraid of accidentally injuring someone if you just go straight for it like that??"
Xu Kun kicked off a mummy's head, used the momentum to land, and casually stabbed the mummy's body with his Tang sword: "I won't."
[Defeat the mummy to obtain Shadow Chest *1]
A black box slowly materialized in mid-air before gently falling to the ground.
At the same time, countless cracks began to appear where the giant cocoon had been cut, and these cracks spread rapidly like a spider web.
The next second, white light emanated from the crack, and Jiang Bai emerged from his cocoon!
Then it hovered in mid-air in an unscientific way!
Who knew that his cool moment would only last three seconds? Xu Kun was just about to say sourly, "Old Bai, your entrance was really cool," when he saw Jiang Bai headfirst, his body falling straight down.
Terrified, he screamed and frantically ran over to catch the person, yelling, "Aba aba! Little sister, give me some milk! Old Bai is going to fall and die!"
Gu Mian: "..."
Look how scared the child is, he's even started talking nonsense!
She then smashed the mummy that was entangled with her with a fan, and then switched to her staff to cast a healing spell.
