I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 303, 1.21-19: The Girl Imprisoned in the Tower
"Does Qi know the legend of the Dark King?" Mu Yegui stood above the valley, quietly looking at a map that had been shot into a rock by an arrow, and suddenly asked.

Jealousy shook his head and said, "Only Sloth knows the legends of the Mysterious Kingdom. As long as others are outside the kingdom, no matter what happens inside, they will not be known to outsiders. The Mysterious Kingdom has a natural barrier separating it from the other kingdoms. After all, the things that happen here are too incredible and clash with the other kingdoms, especially the Kingdom of Truth."

"Gurgle gurgle..." Mu Yegui recalled the words on the card again.

What exactly is this adjective describing?

To be honest, she still doesn't understand why they gave her that card and led her to the Kingdom of the Unbelievable.

Why is she in charge of the instance? Where is the instance owner who should have been there?
Mu Yegui casually peeled off the map and looked down at a black skull symbol on the Endless Land, pondering, "This symbol isn't on the Nightmare Book. What does it represent?"

The legend of the Dark Tower...

Suddenly, Mu Yegui opened his mouth in surprise, flipped open the Nightmare Book to compare the Endless Forest and the Endless Land, and finally raised his hand to draw something in the Endless Forest.

A castle on the map in the Nightmare Book, which should have been empty, now has several black dots and one blue dot.

"As expected, those guys were up to something, even using me as an excuse. I've never received any instructions from Phil." Mu Yegui let out a long sigh and said.

Jealousy paused slightly, then asked, "You didn't receive any instructions from Feilu?"

Mu Yegui shook his head. "I only got the idea because you told me that you triggered the dialogue to open the dungeon. I was a little suspicious then, but I was never as sure as I am now."

“It’s strange. Generally speaking, the dungeon owner will receive some kind of instruction from Phil, although it won’t be as detailed as what a player would receive, but it still gives a direction. When I was setting up the Ten Nights Corridor, Phil gave me the instruction to ‘deprive’, which is why the Ten Nights Corridor deprives people of their five senses.”

The dungeon in the Mysterious Kingdom was too strange, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what would happen next.

"Is the instruction only two words?" Mu Yegui looked up at him and said softly.

"Generally, it won't exceed four words; it just gives a specific direction but absolutely doesn't restrict the instance owner's actions. The instance command for the '30-Second Quick Q&A' program you watched before was 'Quick Answer'."

Each instance has its own instructions; otherwise, an error will occur and the process cannot continue. There's simply no way to refuse these damned rules. Jealousy snorted, clearly recalling something unpleasant.

Mu Ye Gui Xin understood immediately. No wonder the September instance turned out that way. If she wasn't mistaken, the September instance's command was 'mutual destruction'.

“I have a pretty good idea why they came after you. Maybe it's because you're the crown prince and have never guided a dungeon from the perspective of the dungeon owner, so it's easy for them to trick you. As for their purpose…” Jealousy frowned, his face turning somewhat grim, and his disgust for laziness deepened.

Mu Yegui shook his head and said helplessly, "There's only one possibility: they don't want me to participate in this instance, so they'd rather trick me into joining their side than let me participate. The reason is probably my two Crown Prince items, the Nightmare Book and the Demon's Coin."

As for Mu Yin, he had no reaction at all from the moment he received the card, as if he had been deliberately suppressed.

Suppression... Come to think of it, Mu Yin's crown prince privilege seems to allow him to command all dark creatures. They probably fear that his sudden appearance will disrupt their operations, so they resort to using the rules to suppress Mu Yin.

But how exactly did they do it?

His cool, silver vertical pupils silently gazed at the faintly visible blue dot at the castle on the map, and the two black dots very close to it, and he slowly said, "Completely used. They even dare to imitate you. It seems that the excuse of jealousy isn't very effective?"

"I only show this face to you; to outsiders, they see a different, disguised face. Besides, this is Lazy's territory, so I have no intention of revealing myself," Jealousy chuckled helplessly.

He paused, then narrowed his dark orange eyes slightly and said coldly, "I just never expected that one day I would have my identity stolen. I'm a little annoyed."

Let's reorganize our thoughts. In the beginning, Mu Yegui was guided to the Mysterious Kingdom by that card.

At that time, she did not know that the dungeon had already started, so after hearing the jealous words and the black-cloaked man's insistence, whether intentionally or not, she assumed that she had taken over the role of the dungeon master and needed to guide the dungeon's progress.

From that moment on, she entered a trap, modifying the instance with the Nightmare Book, unaware that everything was part of their plan. They wanted to use her to conceal the true Dark King's whereabouts.

Mistakenly believing herself to be the original owner of the copy, Mu Yegui would definitely go to the scene herself and leave the castle. The moment she left the castle, a copy of her body was created in the same spot. In other words, from the moment she left the castle, she had no further use to them.

Because they replicated an identical body to replace her and continue the replication, they only needed the superficial puppet to function.

She only realized she had been deceived after hearing Jealousy say that Phil would definitely give the dungeon owner instructions.

I always thought that the dungeon owner could run the dungeon without receiving any instructions, but I never expected that this was not the case at all. Now that things have turned out this way, I can only say that she brought it on herself.

The falling rocks were merely a test for her; once they were no longer effective, she would face their relentless pursuit to ensure her safety.

Unfortunately, she also had a backup plan.

When I used the Nightmare Book, I deliberately created an Endless Forest that was almost identical to the Endless Land, just to swap the real and fake towers. Now she's gotten away with it.

The tower behind the castle has now been replaced with a fake one; the real tower is now located in the Endless Forest.

But what exactly does 'glug glug' mean on that card?

She must have been pretty bored to come to the Kingdom of Wonders just for such a trivial card.

"Liquid makes a gurgling sound when it boils, and it also makes a gurgling sound when you're hungry... Hungry?" Mu Yegui was slightly taken aback, as if he had grasped an important clue.

Unexpected plot twist! Did you guess it?
