Inside a stone cave at the peak of Giant Peak Mountain
Looking at the entrance blocked by a huge boulder, everyone imdiately noticed the small indentation on the stone gate.
The shape of this indentation is exactly like the stone plate Gus provided.
Lin Yi took out the Cross Stone Plate and it fit perfectly into the indentation.
Just as Lin Yi was about to rotate the stone plate, the Werewolf Prophet Yidra beside Zhang Xinying suddenly said:
"Wait a mont."
Lin Yi’s original action suddenly halted, causing everyone to pause.
Shengshi Drunkard, puzzled, said:
"What’s the matter? Is there a problem?"
Lin Yi shook his head,
"I just rembered sothing, hold on."
Just as Lin Yi finished speaking, the voice of the Werewolf Prophet rang out again,
"Rotate it two and a half turns to the left, then try one turn to the right."
Just as Lin Yi was about to follow the instructions, the Werewolf Prophet Yidra spoke again,
"If you open the stone gate using my thod, the danger behind it might be several tis greater than what you’ve faced before."
"Or perhaps there is nothing inside, it’s best to think it over."
Uh...
Lin Yi stood in place for a mont.
If it were according to Lin Yi’s own personality, he would have undoubtedly opened the stone gate following Yidra’s directions without hesitation.
However, instead of acting imdiately, Lin Yi chose to first seek Shengshi Drunkard’s personal opinion.
After all, it was he who triggered the quest, and ultimately it involves a hidden profession reward related to him.
Even though Lin Yi wanted to know the changes that might occur, the basic principles of being a person must still be upheld.
So matters should be communicated in advance to prevent soone from experiencing a complete loss in the end.
Seeing Lin Yi looking at him, Shengshi Drunkard was taken aback:
"What’s the matter?"
Lin Yi pointed to the stone gate and began to explain:
"Opening the stone gate by ordinary ans takes us to the next part of the quest."
Shengshi Drunkard was stunned for a mont, then as if realizing sothing, looked at Lin Yi with surprise and said:
"Is there an unconventional way to open the stone gate?"
"Uh..."
Lin Yi gave a bitter smile,
"That’s basically the idea."
"I know another thod to open this stone gate, but if we do so, everything behind it remains unknown, and I can’t guarantee completing the quest for you."
"The only thing I can be sure of is that by using another thod to open the gate, the difficulty of our quest this ti might greatly increase, and the reward would be richer too."
"Of course, there’s also a possibility that if we open the gate in my way, there could be nothing inside."
Finally:
"Since this is your quest, I think it’s necessary to ask for your opinion and see your choice."
At this point, the others finally understood Lin Yi’s words.
Tian Ci and his companions were long accustod to Lin Yi’s whimsical ideas.
But Shengshi Drunkard and his two companions were filled with astonishnt.
Why does it seem that even though it’s Drunkard’s task, Drunkard himself knows less than Feng Hua who is helping with the task?
Could it be taught by the City Lord of Cyan Dragon City?
This question indeed puzzled Shengshi Drunkard.
Lin Yi’s words boiled down to two points:
One point is to follow the predetermined quest steps and receive the original quest rewards.
The other is whether to take the risk of losing the original rewards for a chance at a bigger one.
Shengshi Drunkard suddenly looked at Lin Yi with interest,
"Actually, you didn’t have to ask this question and make your own decision instead, right?"
Lin Yi smiled upon hearing this:
"It’s easy to fool you, but I can’t fool myself."
Being true to oneself is important.
Lin Yi’s answer left Shengshi Drunkard stunned.
At this mont, Shengshi Drunkard stared at Lin Yi as if eting him, the ga’s top player, for the first ti.
Seeing Lin Yi’s unwavering expression, in the end, Shengshi Drunkard decided:
"I’ll follow your lead."
Then he added:
"If any similar issues arise later on, you don’t need to ask again."
"As you said, since I’ve chosen to let you lead, I should trust your judgnt."
The Saint of dicine looked at Shengshi Drunkard with so concern,
"Isn’t that a bit too risky?"
Shengshi Drunkard nonchalantly said:
"Have all these years of gaming been for nothing?"
"Do you want greater rewards without taking risks? There’s no such thing."
Shuai Diao Zha suddenly said to Shengshi Drunkard:
"Though you seem conceited, I do agree with your viewpoint."
Shengshi Drunkard laughed:
"Is that so."
Tian Ci added:
"I can only say, trust our boss Feng and you won’t be wrong."
Red Eyes said:
"Brother Feng has never let us down."
Shengshi Drunkard’s eyes brightened,
"Looks like I should be grateful for my recent decision."
Lin Yi, half-laughing, half-crying, said:
"I’m just like all of you, just an ordinary player. Don’t make sound so godlike."
As he spoke, Lin Yi had already stepped up to the stone gate.
Then Lin Yi chose to open the stone gate by the Werewolf Prophet’s thod.
When the operation was completed, a deafening "rumble" sound suddenly echoed from inside the stone gate.
Lin Yi said:
"Rabbit, apply the buffs."
(Lin Yi only calls Zhang Xinying by her ga na when outsiders are present.)
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xinying quickly waved her magic staff.
A series of buffs were applied to everyone.
Although it wasn’t the first ti, Shengshi Drunkard and his two companions were still astonished.
It’s just that Zhang Xinying’s profession skills were too incredible.
Whether it’s the visual effect of the montum or the attribute enhancents of the skills, it’s all unbelievable.
Due to the limited range of totem buffs, Sweet Orange only placed a Healing Totem at the spot.
After a long while, the incredibly heavy stone gate slowly opened, revealing an entrance less than half a ter wide.
"Let’s go in first."
Tian Ci and Red Eye System entered stealth mode and entered the cave first.
Lin Yi warned:
"Be careful."
Both responded and entered the mountain cave with their Elental Spirits.
After a while, Tian Ci’s voice ca from inside the cave,
"It’s safe inside, co in."
Next, Stable as a Mountain and Loss of Speech led the way, followed closely by Shengshi Drunkard and Lin Yi, with everyone else entering in succession.
Inside the cave, there was no danger as everyone had anticipated.
After entering the cave, apart from the entrance, it was pitch black inside.
Suddenly, a faint light erged from the depths of the cave, and Tian Ci waited halfway,
"There’s just a teleportation array inside, leading sowhere unknown."
It turned out the faint light was emanating from a very old-looking teleportation array.
The area where the teleportation array was located appeared very spacious, with the teleportation array set in the center.
Everyone, illuminated by the faint light, exchanged glances.
Eventually, everyone looked at Lin Yi, but strangely Lin Yi’s gaze was not on the teleportation array itself, but on a stone wall next to Zhang Xinying?
Tian Ci suddenly had an epiphany,
"Is there so chanism here?"
Then he blindly groped around the stone wall,
"Where is it? I can’t find anything."
At this ti, the Werewolf Prophet beside Zhang Xinying suddenly spoke:
"This is a teleportation array leading to the Cyclops Race."
"I ca here once, but that was before the Great Demon War."
"I don’t know what happened here afterward."
Given that the Werewolf Race was the first to be exterminated by the Demon Race, the Werewolf Prophet then existed in spirit form.
So, regarding events after the Great Demon War, he didn’t know much.
Any limited knowledge he had ca from stories told by passersby visiting the Werewolf Holy Hall.
Tian Ci, with a face full of confusion, looked at Lin Yi and shrugged,
"There’s nothing unusual here?"
Lin Yi glanced at Tian Ci with amusent, turned toward the teleportation array, and said:
"Let’s go. Since we’re here, even if it’s dangerous, we have to take a plunge."
With that, Lin Yi plunged into the teleportation array and disappeared from the cave.
With Lin Yi leading the way, the others followed suit.
Until the last person entered the teleportation array, this long-deserted cave returned to silence.
The others didn’t notice that the stone gate, once opened, slowly closed on its own, and the cave fell into silence again.
Outside the cave, a figure looked at the closed stone gate and muttered:
"Good luck to you."
