Chapter 280 A Wonderful Magic Tower Journey with Miss Cat (Part Two)
The moment Ji Yi and Xie Jiayi walked hand in hand through the white stone gate.

The surrounding scenery began to distort as if the world were spinning.

This distorted scene quickly gained color, with the spiraling mixture of blue and earthy yellow swirling back to its original form, separated by a clear line that distinguished the two distinct colors.

The sky was blue, while the high wall in front of Ji Yi was a yellowish-brown.

Beneath the high wall is a tightly closed gate. Apart from that, there is no other scenery in the place. The surrounding area is desolate, with no other buildings or even vegetation.

"It seems that the eleventh floor is very simple; all you need to do is go through that door."

Xie Jiayi pointed forward, then tilted her head, elongating her slender, white neck: "What do you think?"

Before Ji Yi could even speak, text popped up in front of her.

Hey, why don't you use X-ray vision to check behind the wall?

Upon seeing this, God's vision is activated, providing a 360° perspective with X-ray vision, enough to see anything clearly.

Except for Miss Cat.

She carries the epic-level item [Peeping Barrier], developed specifically for Ji Yi, meaning that the daily lingerie show is now a thing of the past.

"Tsk."

"What's wrong, Mr. Giba?"

"It's alright, there's a huge thing playing hide-and-seek with us behind this high wall."

"Oh, I thought it was because he had X-ray vision but couldn't see what he wanted to see, so he got angry out of embarrassment."

"Of course not, I am a gentleman."

As Ji Yi spoke, a resolute expression appeared on her face, but Xie Jiayi leaned closer and whispered in her ear:
"I'll let you in on a secret, I'm not wearing anything underneath today."

"?"

Guan Yu: "My lord, is it time for war?"

[She's lying to you. She's actually wearing something perfectly fine underneath. Today she's wearing a conservative, full-coverage bra, verbena purple, color code C6, M13, Y7, K0.]

[All I can say is that she's incredibly cautious.]

Yun Chang: "My lord, I shall take my leave and rest for a while!"

Ji Yi quickly calmed down and pointed in the direction of the high wall:
"Is that strange giant hiding behind the wall there to take a dump?"

Just as he finished speaking.

"Insolent mortal!"

A gigantic hand clung to the high wall, accompanied by a series of low, steady, angry shouts, allowing the two to catch a glimpse of its full form.

That was a giant taller than the city wall.

His features were rugged, his face looked very gloomy, he was disheveled and dirty, and he was dressed in tattered hemp clothes.

The moment he saw Ji Yi and the other person, his eyes narrowed and his expression became extremely unpleasant.

"Another pair of lovebirds, huh!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yi understood and turned her head to give Miss Cat a look:
"Look, he must be suppressing his feelings."

Hsieh Chia-yi: "."

"I think given his size, we could try finding a whale. After all, even a land elephant couldn't handle it. And whales are mammals, too."

"Damn it! If you yell again, I'll kill you!"

Health Bar | ██ (40%)

Health Bar | ███ (60%)

Health Bar | █████ (100%)

"Holy crap, his health bar is up! Miss Cat, let's go for it! How dare a mere Eldian challenge a god!"

Ji Yi took out Thor's hammer.

Miss Cat nodded, and a scepter made of bone joints appeared in her hand.

The giant was taken aback, his eyes wide with astonishment.

Generally speaking, aren't the otherworldly beings who can come here all shrewd and calculating people who prefer to talk rather than act?
What's going on with these two people?
Moreover, they seem completely different from the previous group; they seem capable of actually taking them down!
Seeing that things were not going well, the giant immediately threatened menacingly:

"Kill me, and you'll never get through this wall. Only I can open this door below!"

Ji Yi looked enlightened:

"So you're just a nobody. You should have said so earlier, and I'd take your health bar back!"

Health Bar | ███ (60%)

Health Bar | ██ (40%)

Health Bar | (0%)

"Alright, tell me your requirements."

Ji Yi also put away Thor's hammer.

In fact, he had no intention of fighting at all; the data eye had already given him enough information.

Since his soul power was enhanced, Ji Yi's information acquisition efficiency has greatly increased. He can understand even the most lengthy texts with just a glance, so he can roughly figure out what's going on.

For example, the giant's origin is that he was a guard from a small ancient border country. Because of his loyalty to his duty and love for his post, he was rated as an excellent guard and received praise and a small reward every year.

However, because he was dedicated to his post, he neglected his wife at home, resulting in his backyard being robbed, and even the child he raised for half his life was not his own.

Overwhelmed with grief, the honest man turned to the dark side. One day, he tied up his wife and her lover and took out two cups of wine, one poisoned and the other harmless.

He wanted to see if these two would choose to sacrifice each other to save their own lives. He wanted to witness these two adulterers displaying disgusting mutual accusations before they died.

Of course, he eventually saw a result that satisfied him.

I almost genuinely believed this wicked woman's words, "We are truly in love," but in the end, they were both groveling and begging for mercy.
There are two glasses of wine here.

At this moment, the giant was also explaining the rules.

He took out two wine glasses, each larger than a water vat, and placed them under the high wall.

"One cup is poisoned, the other is not."

“You must make a choice, each of you choose one, jump in and taste the wine. After that, no matter the outcome, I will let you pass.”

"Of course, I'm not that cold-blooded. If someone can give me a reason why they must live, or a reason why the other party must die, as long as what they say makes sense to me, I can tell you the truth: which cup is poisoned and which isn't."

"In addition, I know that people from other worlds have some special items that allow them to return to their original world, but this trick won't work here."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yi checked her logout button, which had indeed turned gray.

"If you don't choose, it's fine to wait. Anyway, there's nothing here except desolation. You have to go through this door to leave."

"The choice is yours."

After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation, then stood behind the wall with his arms crossed, without saying a word.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yi nodded in agreement.
"Alright, the cutscenes are finally over."

He patted Xie Jiayi on the shoulder: "You dance to the left-hand cup, and I'll dance to the right-hand cup."

Upon hearing this, the giant couldn't help but sneer:
"Since we can't make a decision, let's leave it to luck, haha. Although it may seem fair and just on the surface, and avoids hurting feelings, I wonder if others will agree?"

He looked at Xie Jiayi, trying to read her expression.

"Ah."

Xie Jiayi nodded and walked towards the wine glass on the left without hesitation.

"Uh"

The giant was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected the woman to accept the proposal so calmly. Could it be that the two of them weren't actually close, so there was nothing to talk about feelings?

Just as the giant was pondering, Xie Jiayi and Ji Yi each jumped into their wine glasses.

A few moments.

After gulping down several mouthfuls of wine, Xie Jiayi leaped out of the pool with a splash, emerging from her bath like a fairy. Her wet hair clung to her cheeks, but her expression remained calm, without even a trace of joy at surviving a near-death experience.

The giant was silent for a moment, then said with a grim face:

"You're lucky, he wasn't so lucky, haha. Actually, he has some kind of clairvoyant ability. He made his decision after seeing it, right? Unfortunately, he guessed wrong, and you ended up surviving."

"Do not."

Hsieh Chia-yi answered firmly:
"He was right, he wanted to jump into the poisoned wine himself."

As she spoke, Xie Jiayi did not walk towards the city gate, but instead walked towards the wine glass that Ji Yi had chosen.

"Heh, just a self-deceiving fantasy."

The giant sneered.

“When a person dies, it’s like a lamp going out. Don’t bother trying to collect his body. Even a tiny bit of this poisoned wine would have been corroded into blood. There’s definitely nothing left in the glass now.”

Xie Jiayi, however, seemed not to hear and walked straight toward the glass of poisoned wine.

Then, she activated the enhanced version of [Psionic Amplification], [Psionic Release], and her aura suddenly changed.

"boom!"

With a light tap of the toes, the giant wine glass, weighing several tons, tipped over, spilling the poisoned wine onto the ground with a hissing sound.

Xie Jiayi leaped lightly, without touching a single drop of the poisoned wine. In mid-air, she tapped her foot and tilted the wine glass over, emptying the remaining poison.

Then, she lightly kicked the empty wine glass away, revealing the dark "male corpse" underneath.

The giant was shocked: "How is this possible?!"

This poison is enough to evaporate a person. Could this kid be made of bronze?

No, bronze wine cups don't turn this black when they come into contact with poison.

Just as the giant was completely bewildered.

Hsieh Chia-yi's perspective, however, presents a different picture.

Before her eyes floated Ji Yi's soul form, which was completely naked.

【Title: Evil Phenomenon Reincarnation】

[Skill Card Attribute: Active Skill, Permanently Mastered]

[Effect 1 "Evil Manifestation": After release, your body will become a body of evil thoughts, in an indestructible and immortal state. However, your consciousness will detach from your body, and during this period, you will be unable to take effective action.]

"Tsk, every time I activate this skill, it feels like I've become a different race."

Ji Yi's soul looked at the "corpse" lying on the ground. Its dark skin indicated that it was a pure-blooded chieftain in Africa.

"I am Venom, I am Venom, I am the strongest Venom~"

Ji Yi's soul stood on his body, chanting and dancing awkwardly. This fleeting soul state was always interesting no matter how many times he experienced it.

Xie Jiayi couldn't bear to watch, so she grabbed Ji Yi's ankle and threw it at another wine glass.

"Pfft."

As the poisonous wine was washed away from Ji Yi's skin, his consciousness returned to his own body.

"boom!"

With a loud crash, Ji Yi smashed the wine glass, shattering it into pieces.

A naked man made a dazzling entrance, looking incredibly fresh and vibrant.

The giant fell silent.

Then, he pointed at Ji Yi with some anger:
"You are cheating!"

Ji Yi was too lazy to argue with him:

“If you’re willing to bet, you have to accept the consequences. I’ve followed your rules exactly. Where did I cheat? Besides, you said that no matter what the outcome, you’ll let both of us get through this.”

Upon hearing this, the giant could say nothing more.

After all, they survived the poisoned wine by sheer willpower. Although it was unexpected, the outcome was already decided, so what else is there to say?

The giant could only mutter, "Alright, you've passed the test. Now move on."

He crouched down and opened the city gate.

Guarding the gate was his only skill, and of all the otherworldly visitors who had come recently, only these two had been able to pass through unscathed.

Just as I was feeling down, I suddenly heard Ji Yi's voice coming from below:
"Hey, can you stop standing in the doorway? Crawling between someone's legs will stunt your growth."

"."

The giant silently shifted his position.

Ji Yi, naked, swaggered toward the gate, holding Xie Jiayi's hand.

"Although I had some idea of ​​how thick-skinned Mr. Giba was, could you please not hold my hand while you're naked? It feels like I'm being violated."

"?"

My clothes are getting corroded, what can I do?
I'm not here to play Miracle Nikki; I never keep a second set of clothes in my inventory.

Unlike Miss Cat, who keeps all sorts of fancy innerwear in her inventory, tsk tsk tsk, she brings them along but doesn't wear them for anyone to see.

Thinking it over, Ji Yi spoke:

"We can find some clothes in the next dungeon, and besides, Miss Cat, you're completely soaked right now."

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Xie Jiayi's back.

The heavy suspenders were now clearly visible, completely exposing her lie.

"You can't change clothes in front of people, can you? You can change them all together on the next floor."

After saying that, Ji Yi clicked her tongue in admiration:
"Alas, the difficulty of the White Stone Gate is nothing more than this. With the two of us working together, how could we possibly defeat it?"

"Mr. Giba, making promises you can't keep is not a good thing."

"Hey! What am I afraid of! We're brothers who share the same heart and destiny, bound together in life and death."

Before he could finish speaking, he realized something was wrong and changed his words:

"A good couple, right?"

"hehe."

Hsieh Chia-yi sneered and didn't answer. The two of them stepped through the door, and then the surrounding scene began to distort again.

After this initial test, Ji Yi realized that the difficulty was indeed not high, and it was most likely that the [Eternal Diamond Ring] had exerted its power.

This ring carries the power of cause and effect. Ji Yi estimates that no matter what difficult choices he and Miss Cat face, they will be able to find a win-win solution.

It seems this Magic Tower journey is destined to be an easy one.

Just as he was thinking this, the distorted scene around him gradually returned to normal.

This is a girl's room, decorated in pink everywhere, along with many other romantic and ambiguous arrangements.

Ji Yi was lying down in a double bed. The pink quilt with lace trim was quite cozy and cute.

"Miss Cat, is this the welfare bureau?"

"Based on my guess, this must be a room where you can't leave without doing XX, right?"

He had barely finished speaking when he realized something.

Xie Jiayi, who should have been by his side, was not in bed at the moment; the room was empty except for him.

"Hey, where the hell are you?"

The text box did not pop up as expected.

Ji Yi suddenly felt uneasy. Just then, the door opened, and a figure walked in, followed by a sweet, girlish voice:

"Oh, Yiyi, you've taken all your clothes off! You're so naughty!"
