Rusger looked at him: "What do you mean?"
Yang Kaixu's meaning is already quite clear.
“If we wait here for Jiang Ran to come out, then he’ll have to go get another key and continue to the next level,” Yang Kaixu said, arms crossed. “Why should we let him go through all four levels alone?”
No one responded. They knew that Yang Kaixu meant for them to take the other three keys and go find the other three rooms!
Yu Cheng shook his head first: "That's too reckless. In any case, let's wait for Brother Jiang Ran to come out and listen to his arrangements."
“When Jiang Ran was around, I didn’t think much of you following his arrangements, but—” Yang Kaixu’s tone changed as he looked at Yu Cheng with a smile, “Didn’t you ever think before you met Jiang Ran?”
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? The literal meaning!"
"Jiang Ran is clearly trapped inside by accident, and it's uncertain when he'll be released, so are we just going to wait here?"
Yang Kaixu raised his voice: "Those of you standing here must have been seasoned veterans of the supernatural tale world, right? What, have you become dependent on Jiang Ran?"
"Without Jiang Ran, we don't know what to do next?"
Yang Kaixu leaned against the wall, just watching everyone.
“Actually, I think he makes some sense…” Aisha chimed in, “It’s always better to resolve this sooner rather than later.”
Aisha and Yang Kaixu have something in common: they are both the only SSS-level ghost story masters in their respective countries, and have long been single-handedly supporting the top level of their countries.
Jiang Ran is also an SSS-level ghost storyteller, so if Jiang Ran can do it, why can't they?
There's really no need to be afraid of a few keys.
In contrast, Yu Cheng's previous identity was only an SS-level ghost storyteller. Although he had basically reached the top, there was Jiang Ran above him, so he wouldn't face absolute pressure.
"It's just a locked-room mystery; I've done that many times before."
"Rusger! Let's go get a key!" Aisha waved her hand. "We're just waiting here anyway! We're not just for show!"
“No problem, no problem, boss…” Rusger coughed lightly, “but if we leave, my ‘justice’ won’t cover them anymore.”
Without the power of "justice," there's no way to shield the director from the "writer"!
“That’s no problem. I can use the [Creator] to create shielding items.” Yu Cheng sighed. “If you really want to go… then go ahead.”
"However, you must be careful!"
"I know, I know!" Aisha patted her chest. "Watch me crack it in no time!"
She wasn't joking when she said that, after all, she has an "idealist" mentality, and what she believes in will happen in reality!
Aisha gave herself a mental suggestion beforehand to make it easier to use her abilities later.
"Alright, in that case, let's go and conquer the second door first! Whether you want to go to the third door or not... it's up to you. You can wait for us to come back!"
With that, Rusger and Aisha went downstairs together.
The big black dog immediately followed, covering its face with its paws.
"I think at least one person in a team needs to have a brain... Right! Yu Cheng, let me see the magic mirror first!"
"I need to know where the next room is!"
The two people and the dog left the fourth floor, and Yu Cheng continued to install shielding devices to protect the remaining people.
"Hey." Ye Ye looked at Yang Kaixu, "Didn't you suggest it first? Why aren't you making any moves now?"
“There are three of them – the two of them and the dog – I can’t get in even if I go,” Yang Kaixu chuckled. “There are two keys left. Anyone want to come with me and try?”
Currently, there are six people left here.
Yang Kaixu, Yu Cheng, Ye Ye, Lin Zhi, Planck, Yang Hai.
There are three people in each group, making two groups in total.
Yang Hai replied, "If you want to go, I'll go with you."
"Perfect! I've been bored for days!" Planck stretched. "If I keep watching this show here, I'll be bored to death!"
"You guys..." Yu Cheng asked with some concern, "Are you sure everything's alright?"
"It's alright," Yang Kaixu nodded with a smile. "I have ways to circumvent control."
I'm afraid that others will think you have a solution, and therefore you really do...
Yang Kaixu, Yang Hai, and Planck also followed them downstairs.
Only Yu Cheng and the other two remained at the door.
“They’ve all gone. It doesn’t seem right for us to just wait here.” Ye Ye glanced down. “If they all get the keys, we’ll have to make another trip in the end.”
"Let's go together."
"Sigh, there's nothing I can do! Off I go~"
Aisha and her two companions arrived on the first floor, where three keys lay scattered on the floor. She chose "Dilution".
Then, she tied the key to the big black dog's neck.
"Done!"
The effect of "dilution" is to weaken the effect of [Miracle]. As a strange creature, the big black dog does not have [Miracle], so the negative effect of this key can be ignored for it.
Yang Kaixu and the others, who arrived a little later, chose "Dry Spring".
With everyone's mental energy linked and shared, the effect of the "dried-up spring" is not so unacceptable.
All that's left for Yu Cheng and the others is their "rat-like eyes".
"Magic Mirror, where is the key hidden in the forest?"
Jiang Ran decided to take the simplest and most direct approach.
The magic mirror only flickered with some black dots, without displaying any image.
"Is it blocked by the rules of this place?" Jiang Ran put away the magic mirror. "It's not that simple after all."
"Let me take a look!"
Gwen closed her eyes and began to sense the movements around her.
"I couldn't find the exact location of the key, but there are a few people about a kilometer to the east!"
The presence of people means there's a storyline!
"Let's go take a look."
The mountain god possessed Jiang Ran, and Gwen and Alice also withdrew their near-god-level auras.
It looks like a heartwarming scene of an older brother taking his two younger sisters on a trip.
It just doesn't quite fit the background of this primeval forest.
"Who goes there?!"
As Jiang Ran approached, he realized that it was an adventure team, consisting of about four or five people.
They were fully equipped, clearly indicating they had come prepared.
Upon seeing Jiang Ran and his two companions suddenly appear, the leader drew his dagger and looked at them warily.
There's no other reason than that Jiang Ran and the other two were dressed in such strange clothes!
Jiang Ran was dressed casually, and didn't look like someone who would be here at all!
But he was actually the most normal one of the three!
