??866: Up Challenge
866: Up Challenge
“An Up Challenge?” Initially confused by the aning, Carn was soon enlightened by Xu Feng.
In this Up Challenge, all skills and external factors were disabled.
This ant that Flint was automatically sent to the Pet Space and unable to exit out of there.
Moreover, they were chained up on the ankles, forcing them to work together.
“So if our teamwork is terrible, we’re going to be stuck here forever?” Carn furrowed her brows and frowned a bit.
What kind of sick mini-ga was this?
The tir might have been paused for now, but once they start ascending, it would be accounted for in the actual dungeon.
And from beneath, she could tell that the ascension required a lot of work.
It would be a lie if she were to say she didn’t regret touching the white portal at the mont.
“There’s no need to worry much.” Xu Feng suddenly said and gently patted her shoulder.
“Since this is called Mini-Ga A, then it only ans there should be more Mini-Gas hidden in the dungeon.
We should be on the correct path.” He explained.
He wasn’t just trying to reassure her, but he was sowhat positive that the System wouldn’t do them dirty like this.
There should be a sufficient reward upon completing the challenge.
When Carn heard that, she could only nod and felt grateful that he didn’t bla her for the current predicant.
Had it been anyone else, then it wouldn’t be surprising for them to start pointing fingers at others.
“Alright, let’s not care about how we ended up here, but how we should tackle the mini-ga.” Xu Feng continued, his eyes glancing at the structure of the tower.
There were many open cracks and wooden poles around the tower—one that forced them to be well-tid in their jump.
After all, the poles wouldn’t have enough space for two people, and given the chains in their ankles, the distance they could be separated was barely enough for them to stand on each pole.
To simplify, when they jump, both of them must do so at the sa ti while advancing forward without any hiccups.
To test his theory, Xu Feng tried to open his status screen, but it was completely grayed out.
‘The health didn’t decrease, so we should be immune to damage.’ He thought to himself.
With that being said though, Xu Feng raised his chin and stared at a certain chanic wall that cos out and back.
That wall should be designed to make them fall back down to the lowest level.
Aside from him, Carn also seed to realize the importance of this specific challenge.
First, they needed to trust each other— this shouldn’t be a problem.
Second, they needed to coordinate well and relay their intention beforehand.
Third, they needed to ensure they didn’t stumble at all.
Lastly, even if they were to ss up and be forced to restart from scratch, they needed to ensure their ntality was steady and well.
After all, in such a setting, frustration and anger were bound to rise from repeated failures on the sa level or stages.
“Guild Leader, I don’t have confidence,” Carn stepped forward and admitted it honestly.
The pressure was high, and failure ant more ti wasted.
She seriously couldn’t endure it and was positive that she would likely ss up and incur his wrath.
“I don’t have confidence either,” he chuckled in response.
“If we succeed, then all good.
If we don’t, then we just gotta keep trying.
It’s not like you would bla
if I were to ss up, right?”
Carn quickly shook her head.
Obviously, she wouldn’t bla him if he were to ss up.
Soti later, the two of them stepped forward and were faced with the wooden plank.
The wooden platform was attached to a chain and so gears, allowing it to ascend up and down.
Without a doubt, the wooden platform was their first step.
It was simple and easy to understand.
“Are you ready?” Xu Feng asked her.
In response, Carn took three deep breaths before nodding her head.
Once she regulated her mindset and emotion, the two stepped on the wooden platform.
As soon as the two of them stepped on it, the tir in the sky started counting down.
Tir: 38:44:23
“Don’t stare at the tir.” He gently warned.
Constantly staring at the ti was equivalent to putting more strain on your ntality.
The System didn’t put the tir there to kindly remind them but to distract and pressure them.
So long as the tir was visible, they were bound to glance at it subconsciously to check how much ti they had left.
“I won’t look at it anymore.” Nodding, Carn agreed that looking at the tir caused her muscles to be tensed.
Once the wooden platform reached the top, Xu Feng and Carn both walked out and t with a small crack bridge.
Looking at that, Xu Feng knew they were at the ‘tutorial stage”.
“Are they trying to tease or insult us?” Carn pursed her lips and pointed at the highlight down arrow that had a big label jump.
It was clear they were trying to tell them to jump at this particular spot to succeed.
While Carn was less than pleased by the supposed “guidance”, Xu Feng was actually pleased with his decision.
‘Good thing I only joined the dungeon with Carn.
If there are more people, then this would definitely be a nightmare.’ He thought to himself.
Whenever he imagined himself being chained with an additional person or more, he realized the horror of this mini-ga.
“I think it’s just trying to make us get the hang of it.
I doubt the System had any intention of insulting our ability.” Xu Feng responded.
Hearing that, Carn didn’t argue further.
The two of them walked near the edge of the bridges, glanced at each other, and proceeded to leap across.
The small crack wasn’t big and didn’t require them to gain any montum before leaping forward.
However, the two were positive that sooner or later, they would encounter a wide crack which required them to do their utmost to leap across.
