As the door of the ancient building slowly opened, an old and mysterious atmosphere came over, making Lin Yu and others shudder. Lin Yu took a deep breath, suppressed his inner tension and expectation, and took the lead in stepping into this unknown area.
Leng Qianqiu followed Lin Yu closely, her eyes wide open, looking around curiously: "Wow, what is hidden in here? Will there be any super powerful treasure? Lin Yu, tell me about it quickly." Her voice was full of excitement, but the slightly trembling tone still revealed a hint of uneasiness.
Lin Yu rolled his eyes at her unhappily: "If I knew, would I still be guessing here? You, can't you just be quiet for a while? Don't expect me to save you if you're in danger later." Although he said this, he still subconsciously protected Leng Qianqiu behind him, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
Su Yao's face was still a little pale. She approached Lin Yu cautiously and said softly: "Lin Yu, I always feel that there is something weird here. Do we really want to go in?" Fear was like a haze, shrouding her heart, but in order to find out the truth, she still plucked up the courage to take a step forward.
Xiao Yi's face was full of excitement, he held the weapon tightly in his hand, and his eyes flashed with a fiery light: "What are you afraid of? Maybe there are treasures in there, waiting for us to take them!" He rubbed his hands, and couldn't wait to rush into the building and show his skills.
Lu Ming pushed his glasses, and the look behind the lenses revealed caution and thought: "Everyone be careful, this place doesn't look simple, and every step may be dangerous." As he spoke, he took out his newly developed detector from his bag, trying to detect potential crises in advance.
The group entered the building, which was dark and eerie. The luminous gems inlaid on the walls emitted a faint light, barely illuminating the path ahead. Various ancient statues and strange instruments were placed around, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
Lin Yu called out to the system in his heart: "Master System, please give me some clues. What on earth is this broken place? Don't let me run around in the dark again."
The system's cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind: "This building is an ancient relic, hiding many secrets and dangers. Proceed with caution. Exploration may trigger hidden quests, which can be amply rewarded upon completion."
"That's it? What's the difference between you saying it and not saying it?" Lin Yu couldn't help but complain, "At least tell me something specific, such as whether there are any traps or powerful monsters."
The system responded emotionlessly: "The host needs to explore and obtain this information on their own. This system cannot provide further details."
Lin Yu curled his lips, looking helpless: "Okay, it's my bad luck to have such an unreliable system like yours."
At this moment, Leng Qianqiu suddenly tugged at the corner of Lin Yu's clothes: "Lin Yu, Lin Yu, didn't you say you would think of a name for me? I can't wait!"
Lin Yu slapped his forehead: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot. Let me think about it... I got it! From now on, your name will be Xinglan. Xing for stars, Lan for waves, which means shining like stars and full of power like waves. How about it?"
Xing Lan's eyes lit up and she jumped up excitedly: "Wow, this name is so nice! I like it so much, Lin Yu, you are so great!" As she said that, she kissed Lin Yu on the cheek, making Lin Yu's face blush instantly.
"Okay, okay, stop messing around. We still have to continue exploring." Lin Yu scratched his head awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
As they continued forward, a narrow passage suddenly appeared in front of them. The walls on both sides of the passage were engraved with strange runes. As soon as Lin Yu approached, the runes suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and a powerful energy wave rushed towards him.
"Be careful!" Lin Yu shouted, and quickly pulled Xing Lan and Su Yao back. Xiao Yi and Lu Ming also quickly prepared for defense.
Just then, a system prompt sounded: "Triggered hidden mission: Decipher the mystery of the passage rune and open the door to the core area. Mission success reward: Ancient artifact fragments, 2000 points; mission failure penalty: 1500 points deducted, and you will be trapped in a random illusion for one hour."
Lin Yu looked at the runes on the passage and frowned: "This rune looks so complicated. How can I crack it? System, can't you give me some substantial help?"
The system responded: "The method to crack the rune is hidden in the surrounding environment. The host needs to observe carefully for clues."
Lin Yu had no choice but to carefully observe the surrounding environment with his companions. Lu Ming took the detector and scanned back and forth near the passage, trying to find clues to decipher the rune. Xiao Yi kept trying to attack the rune with his weapon, but it was bounced back every time.
Xing Lan was not to be outdone. She closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and tried to use her ability to perceive the mystery of the runes. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and said excitedly, "Lin Yu, I feel that there is a special connection between these runes. It seems to be related to the statues on the wall."
Lin Yu looked in the direction she pointed and found that the statues on both sides of the passage had different postures and seemed to be holding different objects in their hands. He observed carefully for a while and suddenly had an idea in his mind.
"I understand! The objects in the hands of these statues correspond to the shapes of the runes. If we touch the runes in this order, we may be able to crack it." Lin Yu said excitedly.
Everyone followed Lin Yu's method and carefully touched the runes. As the runes were lit up one by one, the door in front of the passage slowly opened, and a stronger mysterious aura came towards them.
"Success!" Xiao Yi shouted excitedly.
Everyone walked into the gate and found a huge hall inside. In the center of the hall stood a huge stone platform, on which stood a box emitting colorful light.
