The three members of the Wonderful Pen Team sat in Lu Gaoin's tavern, rubbing their swollen and painful hands, and looked at the beautiful helmet with resentment.

The helmet is a little different from the original one.

The blacksmith knocked a thing called "rune" into the mask part. This is a mysterious power belonging to this world. When the "rune" is integrated into armor and weapons, it will produce a magical power, such as absorbing force and rebounding force.

Lei Chun looked around in horror, almost thinking it was a dream. However, the swelling and pain in his hand bones clearly reminded him that he had really come to this nightmarish world.

She wanted to cry, but couldn't, so she could only glare at Shi Guanyin angrily.

Shi Guanyin was smiling and speaking politely, "I'm really sorry for inviting you here. I think you must be feeling very suffocated in that room. Although the conditions here are a bit harsh, the sky is high and the sea is vast. In any case, it is more comfortable than staying in that room."

Li Mochou was also laughing, sneering.

According to the Red Snake Fairy's temper, she would have killed Shi Guanyin when she said the first sentence. The reason why she could endure and listen to these extremely annoying words was that Shi Guanyin was very skilled in martial arts and she could not beat him.

Although she has a hot temper, she is still very sensible.

In comparison, Hua Manlou's attitude was much gentler. After realizing that he had punched a woman in the face for no reason, even though his hand was hurt and even though the woman did it on purpose, Hua Manlou still apologized very embarrassedly. As for suddenly coming to such a dangerous place, his future living standards might be greatly reduced, but Hua Manlou didn't say anything. He looked like he was just going to make the best of it, which made Shi Guanyin look at him twice more.

He just glanced at her twice, like any other guest in the pub.

Three more people suddenly appearing out of nowhere should be a rare event no matter where they are. However, the people here, including the tavern owner, only glanced at them. No one showed any surprise. The two businessmen didn't even look over here. It seems that "summoning" is not a rare spell for the people here. Spells like singing songs that make everyone dance involuntarily are really rare.

The dish of dragon beard crisp candies brought by Lei Chun was placed on the table without spilling a single piece. Shi Guanyin picked up a piece and chewed it slowly. The sweet taste instantly filled her entire mouth. She couldn't help but close her eyes and swallowed the whole piece of candy mixed with her saliva. Then she said, "I think you probably know what my mission is here. If you want to completely get out of this hellhole, there is only one way."

"Pass." Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Even if Madam Shi doesn't say it, we will cooperate with Madam Shi."

"That's the best." Shi Guanyin ate the crispy candy slowly, enjoying each piece for a while, making the Miaobi trio almost think that she brought them here just for the plate of crispy candy.

"Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng went to the sewers and may come back tonight. Lin Xian'er has heard that there is something strange in the palace here. The king has ordered the palace to be sealed off. She sneaked in and found many corpses inside, naked corpses of women."

"We have studied this a few times and have determined that if we want to complete our mission, we cannot avoid this palace. Whether there are monsters or conspiracies inside, we have to go in and take a look."

As they were talking, the crispy candies on the plate were almost finished. Lin Xian'er and Wuhua also walked in from outside. They didn't care that there were a few more people in the tavern. They sat down on the chairs, both of them with the same sad face.

"You can go in." Lin Xian'er said, "But you can't go in directly."

Yuan Shisanxian was a little anxious: "Are you going to kill us?"

Wuhua coughed and comforted him quickly: "That's not the case. The king here is very easy to talk to. We talked with him for a long time. He didn't let us in. Firstly, it was to protect our safety, and secondly..." He paused, as if he didn't know how to explain. After thinking for a while, he said reluctantly: "He hopes that we will find some... some..." As he spoke, he gestured.

Lin Xian'er continued his words: "The magic box and the staff, only if you find these can you enter the mysterious sanctuary inside. Otherwise, even if you enter the palace, you will only be able to visit it and will not be able to see the monster at all."

"Monster?" Shi Guanyin asked, "What monster?"

Lin Xian'er glanced at the crispy candies on the table. Shi Guanyin was quite generous, or perhaps just tired of eating them, so he gave her the remaining pieces on the plate. Lin Xian'er smiled and took out a handkerchief from her bosom, wrapped it up, and carefully put it back into her bosom.

"His name is Duriel, and he is a demon like Andariel. When Simon Chuixue comes back, this monster will be handed over to him, and we will be responsible for dealing with the smaller monsters."

Lin Xian'er and Shi Guanyin had both personally experienced Ximen Chuxue's rogue skills, so all they had to do was find a way to send him to the big monster. As for the others, they didn't know much about the situation here, so in order to leave earlier, they had no doubts about this arrangement.

But then again, two days have passed, why haven't the two white-clad mysophobic men who fell in come out yet?

Could it be that the scenery inside the sewer is quite nice?
The night in the desert always comes especially quickly. It got dark just after dinner. There were not many rooms in the hotel, and one room for one person would definitely not be enough, let alone two people. Hua Manlou suggested that men sleep with men and women sleep with women, but was opposed by Shi Guanyin, Wuhua, Lin Xianer and Yuan Shisanxian. Their proposal was also strongly opposed by Lei Chun and Li Mochou. After much discussion and almost a fight, they finally decided on a plan that everyone was satisfied with.

Lin Xian'er, Shi Guanyin and Wuhua slept in one room, Yuan Shisanxian and Hua Manlou slept in one room, Li Mochou and Lei Chun slept in one room. They slept like this for the time being and would deal with it for the night.

While I was making the bed, the two people who had gone into the sewer came back.

He returned with a foul smell, blood all over his body, and his clothes in tatters. He looked so miserable that even his teammates who had lived and fought with him for three months could hardly recognize him!

"Is there any water?" Ximen Chuxue asked.

"Bath water." Ye Gucheng added. No one answered, and no one moved. Everyone was looking at the two of them quietly. Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue also looked at them quietly. They didn't pay much attention to the three people who suddenly appeared. They just looked at each other quietly.

After a while, Hua Man Lou said, "Master Ximen, Master Ye, you have worked hard these past two days. Why don't you sit down and eat something first? I'll go get some water, okay?"

Ximen Chuxue thanked him, but Ye Gucheng was still staring at Hua Manlou, and his eyes became colder and colder.

Even though Hua Manlou was blind, he could still feel the chill. He was stunned for a moment, and his unfocused eyes met that gaze: "Is there anything wrong?"

Ye Gucheng said coldly: "You have nothing else to say after meeting me and Master Ximen?"

Hua Manlou was startled again: "Anything else?"

Ye Gucheng said: "Six hundred thousand words."

Hua Manlou's expression suddenly changed. Li Mochou and Lei Chun on the side looked at each other, and simultaneously uttered two muffled laughs, which they quickly suppressed.

Only Ximen Chuxue was still confused and looked at Ye Gucheng: "Six hundred thousand words?"

Ye Gucheng said word by word in a tone that was almost sarcastic: "Hua Gongzi is an outstanding writer. Have you never read his works?"

Ximen Chuxue certainly had never read the 600,000-word masterpiece. Two days ago, he didn't even know about live streaming. Naturally, he was not the kind of person who liked to read idle books, so he had no interest in this matter.

He is now most interested in two things, one is food and the other is water.

"The live broadcast can be replayed. You can watch it when you have time. After all, you are the protagonist." After Ye Gucheng finished speaking, he looked up at the cold moon in the sky, closed his eyes, and slowly exhaled.

Forget it, he didn't have the energy to worry about it now. In addition to food and water, he needed rest more. Ximen Chuxue's physical strength was increased, and it seemed that he could hold on for another day, but he couldn't stand it. After two days and two nights of sleepless fighting, even after drinking the potion that could heal injuries in an instant, he still felt exhausted.

There was no shortage of food in the inn, but water was a little difficult to find. After all, it was a desert, and it was not realistic to find two buckets of bathing water in a hurry, but two basins of water would be enough.

So, after dinner, the two men with mysophobia found a secluded place, took off their clothes that were stained with blood and monster slime, and used the two basins of pitiful water to clean up the horrible stench on themselves.

The moonlight was dim and everything was quiet.

Ye Gucheng dipped a cloth in water and wiped off the dirt on his body bit by bit. There were earth walls on both sides and a curtain in front, which could barely keep people out but couldn't keep out the wind.

The wind would always lift the corners of the curtain a little, so Ye Gucheng didn't take off all his clothes, at least he still had a pair of pants on.

This is indeed a wise decision.

Just when Ye Gucheng was hesitating whether to take off his pants, the curtain was completely lifted!
He looked at the person in surprise, but the person didn't come in, he just poked his head in.

"go out."

Lin Xian'er looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of amusement, and said softly, "So men are afraid of being seen while taking a bath?"

Ye Gucheng's face turned slightly red, but not because of embarrassment, but anger.

His hand was already on the sword.

As long as his sword is unsheathed, Lin Xian'er will be killed on the spot.

If it wasn't in the game, Lin Xian'er would never be so tactless. But now she was in the game, and she was used to being at odds with Ximen Chuxue, and she even had the upper hand occasionally. With such experiences, she was not afraid of Ye Gucheng.

"I don't have the hobby of peeping at men taking a bath. Usually it's the men who peek at me." Lin Xian'er smiled and lowered her voice slightly: "I just want to ask you two questions, quickly."

"You said."

"Have you discovered Ximen Chuxue's secrets in the past two days? For example, you suddenly feel that he is a very hateful person and you want to stomp him to death, and then suddenly you think he is very good?" Lin Xian'er's pair of beautiful eyes moved: "You are his opponent, right? Don't tell me that you didn't even discover this."
