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

Chapter 598, page 2.1-72: The Crown: The Treasure of a Lost Dynasty
From beginning to end, it's all about 'the treasures of a lost dynasty,' but this dynasty doesn't seem to be 'lost' yet...

In other words, the first task can only be completed after the dynasty has fallen.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated slightly. Mu Yegui walked to a tree and leaned against it. Only after she felt that no raindrops were falling did she take out her phone to check her messages.

Even within the instance, you can still contact each other, but you can only contact the [Crown Prince Group] and the Crown Princes in the same instance. The former can only be posted in the group, while the latter can be contacted privately.

but……

Looking at the chat message page, Mu Yegui discovered that he had created a new group at some point. Its name was "[Crown: Treasures of the Lost Dynasty]", and the group consisted of players from this instance, but there were only 6 people in the group.

This group has no group owner, only group members.

【Crown: The Treasure of a Lost Dynasty】

[Hermit] Daolin: When did I get a new group?
[Hermit] Daolin: I always feel like I'm being monitored.

[Hermit] Daolin: @[Sariye] Shuiqi, stop bothering us. We were almost discovered by the soldiers just now.

[Sariel] Water Cheek: I was just trying to distract you.

[Hermit] Daolin: Who helped divert attention from commanding the undead army? We are now under close surveillance.

[Horus] Belthias: Dolin, come help.
[Sariel] Water Chi: Do you need my help?
[Horus] Berthias: You'd better climb up and stop causing trouble.

[Horus] Bertias: Oh right, @all members, I've recruited Mingxi. If you see him, please let him know what's going on. Since he was recruited using items and isn't recognized as a dungeon player, he won't be in the group chat, although this is just my guess.

Is Mingxi in this instance?
Mu Yegui frowned slightly, raised his eyes to look into the distance, his cool silver eyes quietly watching the rainforest in the rain, listening to the strange tranquility.

"Croak, croak!" A brightly colored frog hopped over, then suddenly squatted down, its eyes meeting Mu Yegui's. It let out a loud croak as if in fear, and then hopped away in a flash. It was as if it had encountered a natural enemy while taking a walk and was fleeing for its life without a second thought.

Mu Ye lowered her gaze, her expression unchanged. Her race was the Samuro, the natural enemy of all creatures, which meant they would instinctively feel fear upon seeing her, and would not feel any affection for her. Unless they had a death wish, nothing would be willing to approach her.

She looked up at the leaves above her head, slowly reaching out her hand as if trying to grasp something, but in the end, she grasped nothing.

She looked down at her clenched fist, then slowly opened it...

There is nothing there.

Mu Ye lowered his eyes and said nothing. He simply withdrew his hand and made no further movement, leaning quietly against the tree, seemingly waiting to be found.

She made no attempt to hide, as if she were afraid Lin Ya wouldn't be able to find her.

Perhaps subconsciously, what she wanted was to be close to someone. Finding her when she was hiding was equivalent to getting close to her, so it wouldn't be considered being afraid of or avoiding her.

She keeps saying she hates being in contact with others, but she has never refused anyone who actually gets close to her.

Suddenly, a pair of black shoes appeared in front of her. Mu Yegui raised her eyes slightly and saw Lin Ya standing in front of her.

Lin Ya's expression was complicated as he said, "There's no need to wait for me. With your abilities, it's unlikely you won't notice me approaching."

Mu Yegui simply watched Lin Ya without saying a word. She genuinely hadn't noticed that, due to her weakness, her sensory abilities had also been weakened, even her five senses were completely diminished, making her even less capable than an ordinary human.

However, weakness only diminishes her physical strength; it doesn't make her body vulnerable. In other words, if someone were to attack her with a knife at this moment, she would at most be unable to resist; the knife still wouldn't be able to pierce her skin. Unless it's a weapon specifically designed to target Samuro, it's impossible for her to be injured. And weapons specifically designed to target Samuro are extremely rare. So far, there are only four types: Samuro herself, Samuro's innate weapon, Zhu Yan's scythe, and Ling Tong's sword.

Blood loss won't kill the Samuros; it will only drive them mad, making them increasingly bloodthirsty and terrifying, even multiplying their abilities. The only way to kill the Samuros is to attack their fatal weaknesses; only then will they be easily killed.

Originally, Mu Yegui's fatal weakness was the same as Mu Yin's, but it changed after she possessed the Nightmare Book. Mu Yegui's fatal weakness became the Nightmare Book itself. If that book were destroyed, she would die; conversely, as long as the book existed, Mu Yegui would never die.

The only way to get rid of it is to break the contract with the Nightmare Book; otherwise, you will be one with it.

The only time Muyegui got drunk was because Dionysus spilled wine on the Book of Nightmares; normally, Samuro would never have gotten drunk.

She pointed to the leaves on the leaves beside her and said, "I want three."

Lin Ya nodded to Mu Yegui and picked three medium-sized leaves, placing them in Mu Yegui's hand.

“You can’t peek at me when you’re leaning against the tree with your back to me,” Mu Yegui said.

After seeing that Lin Ya had her back to her, she used three leaves to wrap the three items and then said, "Okay, you choose."

In Mu Yegui's palm were three 'balls' wrapped in leaves, all roughly the same size and style, and it was impossible to tell what was inside from their appearance.

"Are you sure it's inside?" Lin Ya asked.

Mu Yegui remained silent, letting Lin Ya make her choice without urging her on.

Lin Ya received no reply from Mu Yegui, so he had no choice but to stand there and wait for Mu Yegui to speak.

After a long while, Mu Yegui finally spoke, "Do you know what a book looks like?"

There were no books in this era, or rather, no paper books. All that existed were clay tablets. Therefore, Lin Ya certainly did not know what a book looked like.

“You know,” Lin Ya said slowly, gazing into Mu Yegui’s eyes.

Mu Yegui did not answer Lin Ya, but simply said, "Choose."

"Is it inside?" Lin Ya asked again.

"Why do you have the illusion that it's inside?" Mu Yegui asked, tilting his head.

Lin Ya paused slightly, then said, "Then I don't need to choose from these options, do I?"

Her cool, silver eyes gazed silently at Lin Ya, her pink lips curving slightly. She casually tossed away the leaf in her hand, opened her arms, and said, "Then you choose. Which one do you want to choose? I will only give it to you if you choose the book; nothing else will do."

Mu Yegui was testing Lin Ya here. After all, under normal circumstances, if you are given three choices and you have to choose one, you will subconsciously follow the rules. But once you really fixate on choosing one out of three, then you have fallen into a trap.

After all, Mu Yegui never stipulated that it had to be a choice of three from the beginning; she only said that she would choose from among herself.
