"Indeed, keep a relaxed mindset. The college entrance exam is just one pathway in life, and you’ve already got millions in assets. Your path is set, so whether you take the exam or not doesn’t matter!"
"Little Scholar Sister, you can’t say that. Knowledge is priceless and learning is essential. Anyway, let’s not talk about that. Discussing studying in a ga seems so out of place."
Su Ran glanced down at the hole beneath him and continued, "I’ll control the Thunder Bat to scout the terrain."
"Alright."
...
The Thunder Bat wasn’t big, flying through the cave without any hindrance. It soon reached the second layer of the tomb, and was imdiately startled by the scene ahead. In front, nearly a thousand players were surrounding and attacking almost a thousand zombies, with a zombie BOSS in the middle. They seed to be competing for the first kill of the BOSS.
Seeing this situation, Su Ran didn’t linger. His consciousness returned to his original body, and he quickly relayed his findings to Creamy Scholar.
"It seems all these tomb entrances lead to the second layer. There’s no difficulty in the first layer, and entering the second layer earlier than us is normal."
Creamy Scholar quickly grasped the situation and said solemnly, "Overturning Water, we need to speed up as well. Generally, the treasure of this tomb should be in the last layer. The earlier one enters, the greater the chance to get the treasure. Ti is of the essence!"
"Be careful later; I’ve made too many enemies. There’s no shortage of opponents like Fatty."
Su Ran recalled that guy, Fatty, who seed simple-hearted but was in fact devious, nearly killing him. This experience taught him one thing: it’s unnecessary to be too open with strangers!
"Haha, you’re learning from experience! You really need to pay attention to this, given your worth. Ten thousand gold coins bounty, even I’m tempted. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll kill you a few tis and we’ll split the bounty fifty-fifty?"
Creamy Scholar deliberately teased Su Ran. At the level Su Ran had achieved, he’s the only one. Whether to be happy or worried for him, given the huge bounty, opponents will surely be many. She’s prepared to stand against everyone, even if it costs her life!
"You also want to claim the bounty? Can Dai Xuan give it to you?"
Su Ran scoffed, quickly falling down, "Let’s go, to the second layer!"
"Wait for ..."
...
The second layer of the tomb.
"Brothers, this Venomous Corpse King is about to fall, make a move!"
"Damn, you said we’d kill the BOSS together and share the loot. You’re really despicable!"
"Hahaha, it’s rare to see soone as naive as you! Want to share the BOSS? Dream on!"
The players battling the Venomous Corpse King BOSS imdiately turned on each other, changing targets, and attacking the nearby team.
The players hadn’t expected to be ambushed and were caught unprepared. Now the Corpse King’s BOSS has less than a third of its health left, and infighting at this ti is truly unlucky!
Driven by anger, the two teams began fighting each other instead. This actually gave the zombies a chance to make a coback, increasing the casualties among the player teams.
"What the heck is going on?"
Su Ran, upon entering the second layer space and witnessing the scene before him, felt quite astonished. This was completely different from what he saw earlier. How could the situation change so drastically in just a few dozen seconds? It’s beyond his imagination.
"What’s wrong?"
Creamy Scholar asked curiously, not understanding.
"Just a mont ago, these people were pressing the zombies hard. It’s strange to see the situation reverse so quickly."
Su Ran observed for a mont and then reacted, gloating, "At a ti like this, to still dare fight among themselves, it’s truly reckless!"
"Their own doing, they can’t escape it. It’s perfect that they died, leaving the weakened BOSS for us."
Creamy Scholar showed no sympathy for them, nor did she intend to help. Very consciously, she beca a bystander eager to see the players wiped out.
"It’s unlikely. More people are coming from over there."
Su Ran pointed to the right and said solemnly, "If there’s one thing we have plenty of, it’s players. This BOSS won’t last much longer."
"Given that, there’s no point in us waiting here. We might as well look for the channel to the next layer. Overturning Water, what do you think?"
Seeing that nurous players were still coming to this layer, Creamy Scholar had no intention of staying here any longer. She looked around, attempting to find the channel to the next layer.
Unfortunately, this space is quite large, almost five to six basketball courts in size. Trying to find the channel to the next layer isn’t easy.
"Let this zombie BOSS hold them up, it can buy us so ti. Little Scholar Sister, wait here while I find the channel to the third layer."
Su Ran, having figured this out, no longer harbored thoughts about the zombie BOSS, turned invisible, and then took to the air, heading towards the distance.
"Tsk tsk, they’re all killing with a fervor..."
Su Ran looked down from above the battlefield, seeing the players’ angry expressions, the nasty curses, and the desperate fighting. They completely ignored the BOSS to fight among themselves; it truly shows how greed clouds the hearts!
However, he didn’t have ti to watch the spectacle, continuing to dash forward. With such a large space, finding the entrance to the third layer was no easy task.
Above all, neither he nor Sister Wan’er had been to this tomb. Whether there was even a third layer was unknown. Even if they successfully entered the third layer, they definitely wouldn’t be the first ones in since the tomb had been open for many days. He had no idea how far it had progressed, and failing to clear it could be possible.
This tomb isn’t an ordinary terrain; one must be cautious. Even if it’s been raided by players, one cannot act rashly. Being cautious ensures a safe journey, and he understands that!
Luckily.
The map has already been thoroughly explored. The group that just arrived haven’t targeted the zombie BOSS but rather headed to the right wall, pushed hard, and opened a secret door, all entering it.
"Another secret door!"
Su Ran couldn’t help but shake his head in sigh. If not for the tily arrival of the players, with his style of searching, he might never find it even after a year. The quick discovery of the secret door was purely luck!
Since the secret door has appeared, Su Ran didn’t waste any ti, sent a ssage to Creamy Scholar, and shortly after saw Little Scholar Sister’s graceful figure. While the players were still caught up in their chaos, unable to pay attention here, Su Ran and Creamy Scholar took the chance to open the secret door and enter the third layer.
"Overturning Water, you really have a knack for this; you found them so quickly, amazing!"
Creamy Scholar walked down the dark steps, saying, "Such a hidden secret door, I wouldn’t have found."
"It’s just luck. Those people who just ca know the way. I rely hitched a ride with them, not as impressive as you think."
Su Ran spoke honestly, not wanting to take credit, fearing Sister Wan’er might increase his impression, which would only make things more troubleso.
"How do they know? They’re exploring this terrain way too fast!"
Creamy Scholar sounded a bit astonished, evident from her tone.
"The tomb opened several days ago; it’s no surprise they’ve found the entrance."
"I see. Well, following them saves us a lot of ti, so that’s good too."
Creamy Scholar quickly ca around and was about to say more when noisy chatter ca from behind.
"Not good, soone’s coming!"
From all that chatter, it’s evident quite a few players have entered the passage, which made Su Ran feel uneasy. The passage’s constraints are too big, and if rivals co, the consequences could be dire!
"Quick, we’re almost at the exit!"
Creamy Scholar realized this too and quickened her pace toward the exit. But before she could reach it, the ground beneath gave way, and with a scream, she vanished into the passage.
"Little Scholar Sister!"
