Chapter 99: Eureka
Chen Yu initially teamed up with Qin Guanhai and his company because of Qin Guanhai’s unique sensory power. However, after following them around for half the day, the sky gradually darkened, and they had already passed five of the seven levels, but Qin Guanhai had not sensed anything related to the magic artifacts except for a few hurdles in the afternoon.
Chen Yu was so impatient that she couldn’t help approaching Qin Guanhai and asked, “Little Brother Qin, do you sense anything?”
“What what?” Qin Guanhai was still a 16-year-old young teenager. When a beautiful young lady approached him so close, he couldn’t help blushing.
“Have you sensed anything special, like the day you sensed the zombie on New Year’s Eve?” Chen Yu asked.
“Yes.” Qin Guanhai nodded.
“What is it?” Chen Yu’s eyes immediately lit up.
Qin Guanhai pointed to the boulder in the distance and said, “I think the sixth level should be there. I feel something is different there.”
“Oh.” Chen Yu snorted with lack of interest. Of course she knew that was the sixth barrier. The Old Man took her on a tour to every barrier inside.
“Then let’s hurry there.” When Liang Guang heard that the sixth level was found so quickly, he couldn’t wait to go there.
When the group approached the boulder, the surroundings drastically changed. The valley with green grass that they just saw from the distance turned into a pile of rocks. Stones of different sizes scattered all over the place, and nothing green could be seen anywhere.
“The woods we just came through are gone.” Qin Guanhai looked behind him.
“This level should test Formation.” Shao Qi looked around and said to Liang Guang, “I’m not highly skilled in formations, so we can only rely on you.”
Liang Guang’s expression at this time was also ugly at this time, “Me neither.”
They were skilled at exorcism and spells, but they didn’t use much of these on their journey.
Liang Guang looked around again, and finally, he unconsciously set his eyes on Chen Yu, who was walking at the rear. At this time, Chen Yu was feeling glum and didn’t notice Liang Guang’s eyes for help. However, even if she noticed, she couldn’t easily cheat either.
Seeing Chen Yu’s dejection, Liang Guang thought she had no way out, so he discussed with Shao Qi, “I’ve heard that some people accidentally passed the formation levels before, so we might as well give it a try, too.”
“Indeed.” Shao Qi nodded in agreement. Thus, the group walked around the pile of rocks several times, but still did not find a way out. Finally, the two discussed again and decided to change their strategy, intending to look for the stone suspected to be part of the formation in the pile of rocks and try to move it to see if they could luckily unlock the formation.
The two men moved dozens of stones here and there, but the formation remained untouched, until Qin Guanhai unconsciously kicked a small stone. The formation suddenly twisted, followed by a malevolent ghost suddenly appearing in the air behind Qin Guanhai.
“Watch out.”
“Get out of the way!”
Qin Guanhai turned his head and found himself so close to a ghost. The distance between the two faces were barely a centimeter apart.
“Grah!” The malevolent ghost growled. The malevolent Qi around his body surged as he opened his mouth to swallow the young man in front of him. Liang Guang and Shao Qi were a distance away, so while they were rushing to the rescue, a small fair hand suddenly smacked the smooth forehead of the malevolent ghost. The ghost’s head tilted to the side.
Who dared to hit me? The ghost hissed, turned his head to look at the culprit, and then turned around and fled.
This familiar operation earned a twitch at the corner of Chen Yu’s lips. When she turned around, she met three pairs of complicated gazes.
“Heh-heh.” At this point, the only way to resolve the awkwardness was to smile.
So that’s how it is.?This was the unanimous voice of the remaining three. The mystery that had plagued them for the whole day was finally solved.
After this small interlude, the group quite tacitly decided to act as if nothing had happened, and continued to study the method of breaking the formation.
“Guanhai, where did you run just now?” Liang Guang asked Qin Guanhai.
“Here. I accidentally kicked a small stone.” Qin Guanhai pointed to the stone he just kicked and said, “This is the one.”
“The more inconspicuous things are, the more important they are.” Small stones of this size were the most numerous in the rubble, and it was impossible to identify which one was more special if they were densely packed. But the components of the formation were likely to be hidden inside.
