C5 Evil Warding Sword?

He thought he'd at least have to open his head, and suddenly there was a crash, and then after a while, the secret chamber returned to silence, and only the sound of the string breathing heavily could be heard.

Koo Hsingci slowly opened his eyes. He still held the wooden sword in his hand, but the wooden sword had already returned to its original position. The skulls fell to the ground, but most of them were concentrated in the northeast corner of the secret chamber.

The silk string breathed heavily as it gave him a thumbs up. "You dare to move the things here? How dare you!"

Koo Hsingci smiled in embarrassment, then looked at the wooden sword hanging on the wall. "This is a peach wood sword, used to ward off evil spirits?"

Silk String looked at the large pile of skeletons in the corner and laughed with an unknown meaning. "It can really ward off evil spirits. Ghost type Instance Dungeons even prepare a tool to ward off evil spirits. The system is quite considerate."

Even though his tone was not affected, Koo Hsingci could hear some sarcasm. He no longer stared at the wooden sword. "Did you find anything else?"

Silk String rested well and used his finger to tap on the surrounding walls. Just as Koo Hsingci asked, he made a shushing gesture and made a soft shushing sound.

Koo Hsingci immediately shut his mouth and followed with light footsteps. The string passed through one wall. When it reached the second wall, it only knocked twice before stopping.

Koo Hsingci deliberately lowered his voice, "It can't be empty, right?"

The silk string looked up at him. "The person who designed this checkpoint must have watched too many TV dramas."

Koo Hsingci was silent for a moment and did not ask any more questions. The place where the String knocked was in the southeast where a pile of skulls were piled up. In other words, to break open this wall, they had to move these skeletons away first.

The danger level was not high, but it was really disgusting!

Koo Hsingci looked at the skulls with strange skin tissue and a strange smile on their faces. But after a moment, he sighed and rolled up his sleeves, preparing to dry them.

The silk string handed him two more masks. He also took two masks and put them on. The two of them threw the skulls to the other side with their hands and feet.

Koo Hsingci was behind him, and he could see his bent back. He had a slim waist and heaven-defying long legs. He rolled up half of his sleeves and revealed his muscular forearm. A pair of hands with clear joints at the end of his forearm was throwing skulls all over the floor into the air.

Koo Hsingci looked at him while paying attention to the situation around him. Before he could react, the string suddenly stopped moving.

Koo Hsingci noticed his abnormality and stuck his head out to ask, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing!" The string responded and threw the skeleton away.

About ten minutes later, all the skulls were cleared to the southwest corner. There was a black circle with a diameter of about 30 centimeters under the pile of skeletons. The circle part was slightly indented.

Koo Hsingci clapped his hands and walked over to look at the pattern. He asked, "Is this the door to the next secret chamber?"

The string nodded slightly, but his expression was a little serious.

"This is a loop," Silk String used his index finger to tap his chin. A muffled sound came from under the three layers of the mask. "The skeleton of the peach wood sword has appeared. A secret door has appeared when the skeleton is moved, but the process of moving the skeleton is not dangerous at all."

"You mean..." Koo Hsingci thought for a while. "Is there a mechanism inside this door?"

"According to the brainless designer's routine, it is probably a mechanism that could easily cost one's life!" Silk String said as he piled the boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry in the same corner. There was a gap of about one person in the corner.

After doing all this, String pointed at the gap with his chin, indicating to Koo Hsingci, "Go in."

Koo Hsingci was not stupid. He could see that it was a fortress built with boxes, but the string only left one person's position.

That was right. If both of them went in, who would open the door?

"That..." Koo Hsingci hesitated, "I know your kung fu is better than mine, but don't be a gentleman. It's not worth losing your life."

When Silk String heard that, he burst into laughter. "Handsome, are you concerned about me?"

Koo Hsingci choked on his words, but he did not feel disgusted by his words. But now was not the time to joke. He pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled awkwardly. "After all, we are teammates. If you die, I will feel guilty."

"Thank you." Silk String seemed to be a little helpless. He did not understand. "I am not a gentleman either. This is called leaving a backup plan. The situation would be worse if the two of us were to be thrown in together.

"Hurry up and go in." After Silk String said that, he pushed him in and said, "Squat down."

Koo Hsingci did not refuse and squatted down as he was told. Just as he bent down, a box immediately covered the gap above his head. Koo Hsingci was stunned for a moment in the darkness and shouted, "Well, if there's something you need to talk about, speak!"

String laughed and squatted beside the pattern. His feet pointed to the ground and he was ready to escape at any time.

After making sure that Koo Hsingci was safe, the string stretched out its fingers and touched the depression in the circle. It knocked on the middle area. After thinking for a while, it pushed the middle part of the circle with its two hands.

He was right. The depression was obviously solid. Although the middle area was solid, the sound was relatively empty. It was as if a cylindrical object had been stuffed into this space. However, it was not completely filled.

The ring-shaped wall was embedded into the wall with his push. At first, it was a little strenuous, but later on, he realized that he did not need to push it anymore. The wall was still moving towards the inside by itself.

And now, there were no triggered mechanisms in the surroundings.

Suddenly, he heard a dull sound. The wall's movement was over. Before the string could react, he suddenly felt that his feet were empty.

"Ah..." The string cried out loudly. When it heard Koo Hsingci's shout, it hurriedly shouted, "Don't come out!"

Koo Hsingci almost pushed the box out and heard his shout. He withdrew his hand in time and only received half of it when he heard the sound of arrows piercing through the air. It sounded like... There were at least hundreds of arrows flying around in the room.

The sound lasted for about half a minute before it stopped. Koo Hsingci was so anxious that he pushed open the box on top of his head.

He thought he would see the wall full of cold weapons, but what he saw was a patch of red. The secret chamber in the cement was dyed red with blood. The ceiling on the wall and the floor were covered with blood, and it was still dripping down.

The pungent smell was even worse than before. Koo Hsingci endured the nausea and walked out of the box.

He did not see any trace of the string.

Koo Hsingci's heart skipped a beat. Although it was the first time they had met in a temporary team, but this was the first time Koo Hsingci was so lucky to have a teammate who did not cheat him. If the teammate died because of his luck, he felt really bad about it. Besides, the game was not over yet. It was not something Koo Hsingci wanted to see.

He shouted the name of String String while trembling.

There was no sound, no response...

Koo Hsingci swallowed a mouthful of saliva and carefully approached the hole beside the ring-shaped mechanism. He nervously shouted again, "String..."

This time, he heard a muffled groan.
