Chapter 845: Chapter 421: The Rival Appears!_3

Following the direction pointed by the arrow, it was a corner of the room.

Shen Ye walked to the corner and pressed his hand on the ground, feeling it for a moment, then knock on it.

The sound was loud.

It was hollow underneath.

Shen Ye looked around and suddenly felt a protruding stone.

He pressed down on the stone.

Boom rumble–

The ground split open, revealing a long staircase.

Torches lined up on both sides of the staircase burst into flames.

“Wow, hero, you actually found a secret passage to leave this place, that’s awesome!”

Big Skeleton hurried to the entrance of the passage, jumping and cheering like a girl.

“Hero, don’t vomit just yet, this is for you.”

It tied a ribbon around Shen Ye’s wrist.

“What is this?” Shen Ye wiped his mouth and asked.

“This is my token, with it, you can also pass through this secret passage.”

“See you again.”

After speaking, it jumped down.

As soon as it jumped down, it frantically tore off the dress it was wearing and then jumped back up.

“How was it, did I perform well?”

It asked proudly.

“If you were a bit more reserved in your performance, it may have been better–by the way, how did you know there was a secret passage here?” Shen Ye asked.

“It’s not that I knew, the woman I was impersonating knew.”

Big Skeleton coughed lightly and continued to explain:

“Originally, you would need to experience dangers outside, accidentally collect a piece of the shattered Ancient Stele, interpret the characters on the stele, then go to twenty-one hidden locations to collect the corresponding fragments of the stele, in order to piece together the stele and discover this secret passage.”

“What if I didn’t know about this secret passage? What would happen?” Shen Ye asked.

“That would be you escorting me out, wandering aimlessly outside, constantly attracting monsters to attack, until you end up dead–”

“That mission is called ‘Silencing’.” Big Skeleton said.

“It’s clearly a rescue, so why is it a ‘Silencing’ mission?” Shen Ye did not understand.

“Because you didn’t collect enough intel and are an outsider, you shouldn’t know the secret of this matter.”

Big Skeleton pointed at the ribbon wrapped around his arm:

“This is the proof, with it, you can safely enter the secret passage.”

“…Alright.” Shen Ye said.

He approached the entrance of the secret passage and looked down.

The staircase was very long.

Although there were torches on both sides, the end of the road was still not visible.

So–

Go down?

Suddenly.

The protruding rock moved on its own.

Boom rumble–

The secret passage closed up.

Even in an instant, a layer of dust quickly covered the surface of the ground tiles.

–It looked as if it hadn’t been touched for a long time.

It concealed everything that had just happened!

Shen Ye and Big Skeleton looked at each other.

“What’s happening?”

“Don’t know.”

As the two were talking, they heard footsteps coming from outside the Abandoned Exchange.

Then.

The door to the exchange was pushed open.

Xu Xingke walked in.

“Teacher!” Shen Ye called out quickly.

“Ah, you’re here too.” Xu Xingke, with a cigarette hanging from his lips, squinted as he surveyed the surroundings.

“Yes, it’s relatively safe here, by the way–”

Shen Ye was about to ask about the Swordswoman, but then he abruptly closed his mouth.

Rows of small text madly materialized and refreshed in front of his eyes:

“You have obtained the full intel of the Primordial Ruins;”

“Your gate power is that of an Upper Guide: Fortune Teller;”

“Your gate power has entered the realm of Truth, reaching the 1st tier standard of ‘Truth and Fate Interwoven.'”

“Truth suppression activated!”

“Suppression effect:”

“You have discerned the other person’s gate power.”

“The other person’s gate power is:”

“Gate of Friendship.”

“Tier 0.”

“Description: Retrieve corresponding items from the gate, impersonate an existence trusted by the target.”
