Chapter 185: Holy Light Spreads Taboo! Lucia! I didn't mean it!

[Kill 3 vampires, Contribution Value +150! ]

“…”

Su Xuan stared at the increase in contribution value that jumped out of his sight and pondered for a moment.

Although the demons in the castle are powerful individually, their numbers are far less than those in other demon caves. It seems that in order to obtain more contribution points, demons above level 50 must be eliminated.

“Keep going!”

Everyone continued to move forward, preparing to cross the long corridor and head to other areas. Just as they were about to reach the end of the corridor...

"Wait! Something's happening!"

Suddenly! Everyone stopped.

I saw a group of adventurers' corpses appearing in the middle of the road at the end of the corridor, lying quietly on the ground.

"Is this the area where other teams have fought before?" Shen Jun scratched his head and guessed in confusion.

"It shouldn't be. The bodies of these adventurers do not belong to the same team." Su Xuan flatly denied it. He was sure that the bodies of these adventurers did not come from the same team.

They belonged to different teams, but strangely, all these corpses were gathered here.

"Wait, this adventurer seems to be from Lu Bo's Guild?" Suddenly, Shen Siqi pointed at an orc with cat ears in the pile of corpses and said in surprise.

"Damn it! Did Lu Bo meet with any misfortune?"

Shen Jun's face instantly darkened. Lu Bo's player rating was C, and there was even a magician over level 50 in the guild.

In addition, the two players traveling with Lu Bo are from C+ level guilds, and there are two adventurers above level 50 in their team.

If something happens to them...

"It seems that this adventurer fell into a trap and unfortunately died."

Su Xuan carefully examined the cat-eared adventurer's body and found that he had multiple wounds pierced by sharp thorns. Such wounds were usually caused by falling into traps such as spike traps.

The bodies of the other adventurers showed similar wounds, and they had obviously died in traps.

However, what is puzzling is why their bodies were teleported here together...

Before Su Xuan could sort out his thoughts, the wall in front of him suddenly opened up like a bloody mouth, and several more corpses were spit out.

"Fuck! Why is the wall spitting out corpses?" Shen Jun exclaimed, looking at the adventurer's body rolling at his feet with a look of surprise on his face.

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the wall that was spitting out corpses, and their faces became extremely solemn. They couldn't help wondering, could this castle be alive? "The castle is not a living thing, but a way for the castle owner to clean up the garbage inside."

At this time, the magician Kellilin explained to everyone: "Apparently, the owner of this castle couldn't tolerate the corpses scattered all over the floor of his house, so he gathered them here. And the six vampires in the corridor earlier are probably working as cleaners or cooks in the castle."

"So that's how it is." Shen Jun scratched the back of his head and had a new understanding of the situation just now.

"Do you know much about vampires?" Su Xuan asked Kellylin curiously.

"Not really." Kaililin shook her head and explained, "But there is a vampire member in our guild, and she knows some of the habits of vampire nobles."

"Oh~"

Su Xuan nodded thoughtfully. It turned out that there was a vampire in the Fairy Concubine Guild. This was quite rare.

"Let us continue on our way and let the remains of these adventurers rest here."

As Honglian spoke, a ball of fire ignited in his palm, setting the pile of corpses on fire.

The crowd continued to move forward. Knowing that the castle was full of traps, they became more cautious.

After traversing several areas and successfully killing a dozen vampire minions lurking in the darkness, they came to a strange room.

The room was filled with bookshelves, but strangely, there were no books on the shelves; instead, there were heads on the shelves.

This strange scene made everyone's expression change suddenly. They couldn't understand the real purpose of this room.

At this moment, Su Xuan's attention was attracted by a dried corpse.

It was a female corpse, all the blood in her body had been completely drained, and she was shrunken, lying quietly on a rocking chair. In her hands, she tightly grasped a square box, on which was inlaid an emerald green gem, which was very eye-catching.

Su Xuan tried to get information about the corpse and the box, but all he saw were question marks and no clues.

"Su Xuan, look! There is a treasure chest over there!"

Suddenly, Shen Jun's shout attracted everyone's attention.

On the right side of the corpse, a golden treasure chest was emitting an attractive light.

"This is obviously a trap!"

Shen Siqi glared at her cousin, thinking that he was too unreliable.

"Something is not right here. It's better to be careful." Su Xuan said to everyone vigilantly.

His eyes roamed around, looking around the room, looking for any possible passage, because this area was the only place they could go. They had already fully explored the area they passed by, but they had not found any other way.

"Is it there?"

Su Xuan's gaze fell on the wall behind the female corpse. There seemed to be a hidden doorway. Although it was not easy to detect, there were indeed signs of its existence.

But one thing is certain: there must be some kind of trap set around the female corpse. To reach the area ahead, they must first remove the trap hidden near the female corpse.

"We must find the trap hidden near the female corpse before we can move on." Su Xuan reminded Shen Siqi and the others.

"A trap? How about I just destroy the trap with fire?" Honglian suggested.

"No need to do that. Let my adventurers solve the trap problem." Shen Siqi said, pushing a female dwarf forward and added, "Brook is an expert in traps among the dwarves. She has the ability to disarm these traps."

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Brooke responded confidently.

Then, the dwarf took out a set of special demolition tools from his backpack and walked carefully towards the female corpse.

After her skillful operation, the surrounding trap trigger devices were destroyed one by one.

"Phew~Done!"

The dwarf waved to the crowd, indicating that it was safe for them to come over.

Everyone walked into the room with confidence and slowly walked towards the female corpse.

Su Xuan's gaze lingered on Shen Siqi for a while longer. It was obvious that the president of the Fairy Princess Guild had a special reason for inviting Shen Siqi and Shen Jun, who were rated as D+ players, to participate in the high-risk magic cave activities.

After all, it was too difficult for a D+ guild to challenge the high-risk demon cave. Without the help of Honglian and the others, the Shen brothers and sisters' guild would probably be wiped out here on its own.

But after he saw the dwarf who could disarm the trap, Su Xuan suddenly realized something...

"Now! The trap has been lifted, let's see what treasures are in this treasure chest!" Shen Siqi walked to the glittering treasure chest with great anticipation. When she opened the treasure chest, the gold coins inside immediately made her smile! " Wow! There are dozens of gold coins!"

“I’m rich!”

The Shen siblings excitedly took out the gold coins from the treasure chest. Dozens of gold coins were not a small amount of money for anyone!

While they were happily counting the gold coins, Su Xuan's eyes fell on the small box in the arms of the female corpse.

This small box did not seem to emit any magical fluctuations, but for some reason, it made Su Xuan feel inexplicably concerned.

And this female corpse doesn't look like a vampire from the outside, but more like a human woman who has been completely sucked dry by a vampire.

At this time, Honglian walked to Su Xuan's side and said to him, "Our president said that this box seems to be the key to unlock a mission of opportunity."

"Mission of Opportunity?"

When Su Xuan heard Honglian's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.

So far, he has not encountered any opportunity missions, because opportunity missions are rarer than hidden missions and can only be encountered by players with high luck values.

It is not a specific task type and does not have a complicated task flow. It may be more similar to tasks such as decryption.

But as long as you complete the opportunity mission, you can get rich rewards! "What do you mean?" Honglian raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a hint of smile, "Do you want to give it a try? I can help you."

"Let's give it a try." Su Xuan decided to give it a try and reached out to the mysterious square box.

This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!

The moment he touched the box, a dazzling blue beam of light instantly shot out from the box and enveloped all of them.

Then, a prompt popped up on the interface in front of Su Xuan: [Opportunity Mission - Star Magic Box (triggered), moving to another location! ]

Before he finished analyzing this hint, they were transported to the opportunity mission site by a blue light. Ivsa, Lucia and Honglian also stepped into this strange area with him. The reason was that the three of them were standing together with Su Xuan at the time, so they were also shrouded by this mysterious blue light.

"Where is this place?" Honglian looked around. The scene before her eyes seemed like a vast starry sky. Could it be that they had arrived in the universe?

However, what was strange was that they were not floating in the endless space. Although there was nothing under their feet, they could clearly feel the solid ground under their feet, just like standing on a transparent glass plate.

"Mr. Su Xuan, what does this mission require us to do?" Evesa turned to Su Xuan curiously and asked.

"Let me see..." Su Xuan concentrated on looking at the detailed description of the task.

[Star Magic Box: Please find the right star among thousands of stars! ]

[Hint: Witch]

[Quest Reward: A ray of star power]

[Note: If the puzzle is not solved within 30 minutes, you will be teleported back to the original location. ]

Su Xuan looked at the task description and the answer to the puzzle and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

Is this Star Box somehow related to the Star Kingdom?

Could it be a relic left behind by the Night Witch? Besides...

Su Xuan's eyes darted around and his brows were slightly furrowed. He needed to find the right star among countless stars according to the answer to the riddle within just thirty minutes. This seemed to be a rather challenging task.

However, no matter how difficult it was, he had to face it bravely. Su Xuan immediately told Lucia and others the specific requirements of the task.

"To find the right star among countless stars? How is that possible?" Honglian shook her head in confusion. She was better at fighting than solving puzzles.

Lucia began to analyze the key information in the hint: "Witch..." Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the starry sky in the distance, and her first reaction to the hint was about constellations.

But in fact, there is no witch in the constellation.

"Mr. Su Xuan, I always feel that the starry sky around me seems to be moving?" Just as Su Xuan was struggling to find the answer, Evesa hurriedly reminded him.

"move?"

Su Xuan was stunned at first, but soon realized that what Ivsa said seemed to be true!

The starry sky is really approaching them...

wrong!

Only then did Su Xuan notice that it was not the starry sky that was approaching, but the glass-like wall that was shrinking and squeezing them!

Moreover, judging from the speed, it would be impossible to find a place to stay in three minutes, let alone thirty minutes! Su Xuan immediately looked around, eagerly looking for the right star.

If the clue to the answer is related to witches and involves stars, then it is likely to be closely related to the Night Witch.

After all, in the Star Kingdom, the Night Witch appears most frequently.

but……

"!!!"

Before Su Xuan's thoughts could fully unfold, the invisible wall had squeezed them so tightly that they could hardly move.

Four people were squeezed into a narrow square space, pressed tightly together.

Although the shrinking of the space stopped temporarily, the situation was quite awkward. Since Su Xuan was originally standing in the center, he was naturally squeezed in the innermost part, tightly surrounded by Lucia and the others.

Right in front of him was Lucia. Due to the pressure of the wall, her snow-white hair was pressed tightly against Su Xuan's chest and was almost deformed!

“Really?!”

Lucia bit her teeth lightly, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.

She didn't understand why this task had such restrictions? Was this task originally designed for one person? "Hahaha! This is really tricky. In such a crowded environment, it might be even more difficult to solve the puzzle." Honglian smiled and squeezed forward.

This tall female elf was squeezing Su Xuan's left shoulder with her proud white hair, almost touching his face. The feeling was indescribable! "Mr. Su Xuan, although it's a bit crowded here..." Ivsa, who was on the right side of Su Xuan, smiled. The charming smile was heart-moving, "But strangely, this small space makes my heart beat faster~ I like it~"

As the words fell, Ivsa's heart-shaped tail quietly appeared and gently wrapped around Su Xuan's arm.

[Yifsha's current desire: 366! ]

"???"

Su Xuan frowned slightly and thought to himself: Ifsa, now is not the time for this!

But~ Ifusa believes that such close contact can make Su Xuan more focused on thinking about the problem~ "Huh~"

Suddenly, Evesa leaned close to his ear, opened her red lips slightly, and exhaled a sweet breath.

The sweet and charming breath broke the defense line of the Holy Light at that moment, shining brightly, as if urging Su Xuan to step forward and fight for Ivsa!

However, this caused a serious problem. Because at this moment, Su Xuan was facing Lucia! From the beginning when she was close to Su Xuan, she had sensed the holy light hidden in him. Fortunately, the light was not strong, and it only made her feel slightly uncomfortable through her clothes. Now the situation was urgent, so she could barely accept it.

But when she felt the sacred light gradually becoming brighter and hotter, her heart suddenly became panicked!

because!

She could clearly feel that the brilliant light was slowly spreading towards the taboo...
