Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 222

Chapter 222 Magic Switch?
“Continue. I want to see how long this main hall is!” Xue Wuhen frowned.

“Don’t worry. Perhaps after the restaurant, it will be the last place in the Divine Hall.” Xu You comforted.

“Huh? Youyou, guess what, then it should be.” Xue Wuhen said seriously.

Hearing this, Xu You smiled helplessly and walked to the door at the east end of the restaurant. He pushed hard and the door opened.

After entering the door, Xu You looked forward and discovered that there was a passageway behind the door. It was only five to six meters long, and at the end was a wall. There was a long relief carved on the wall. The content was that a woman was holding a man from behind. Both men and women were back figures, and they couldn’t see his appearance. With Xu You’s level of appreciation, he really couldn’t understand what this relief meant.

“Is this really the last place in the Divine Hall?” Xue Wuhen thought to himself.

However, Xu You guessed what Xue Wuhen was thinking and said, “No, this is not the last place. There are passageways left and right ahead.”

Xue Wuhen was stunned for a moment before realizing that this was actually a T-shaped intersection. There was still a way to go at the end, so he smiled and said, “Looks like you really haven’t been here before, Youyou.”

“Of course not!” Xu You let out a strange cry. Then, he walked to the fork of the T-shaped intersection. Looking left and right, he discovered that there was another door at the end of the left passageway and a staircase at the end of the right. It should be leading to the second floor.

“Which way should we go first?” Xue Wuhen also walked to the fork of the road, looked around, and asked.

“There’s actually only one path on the left and right. It’s the corridor leading to the small courtyard. Actually, it’s a dead end.” Xu You did not hesitate to choose the left. He felt that the secret of the entire Ferrah Temple was behind the door on the left.

“Then let’s go.” Xue Wuhen didn’t care which side was dead. It was already past 6 a.m. and it was already dawn. If it wasn’t for the fact that this mission could be completed at any time, she really wanted to go offline to rest.

Thus, the two of them passed through the left passageway, pushed open the door, and entered.

“Ding, you entered the temple chapel …”

Looking at the solemn hall in front of him, Xu You heard the notification from the system. Xu You knew that this was definitely the last room of the Ferrah Divine Hall, because looking around, there was no other passageway to this chapel.

“Youyou, look, what is that?” Xue Wuhen was looking for something different from Xu You. She quickly saw something shining at 11 o’clock in the chapel.

“Huh?” Xu You quickly saw the faint light. He couldn’t help but pull Xue Wuhen over. He took a closer look and discovered that it was a pull rod switch. It was set on the ground. There were a few magical stripes under the switch that emitted traces of light. It was somewhat similar to the teleportation array magical stripes that Xu You and Xu You had used before.

“Magic switch?” Xue Wuhen looked at the strange lever switch and murmured. Then, he wanted to pull the switch.

Seeing this, Xu You didn’t have any thoughts at first. Although this pull rod switch was a bit strange, it actually had something to do with magic, but wasn’t it used to switch on and off? But when Xue Wuhen grabbed the rod and was about to pull it, Xu You suddenly felt a tremor and his back went cold. This terrible feeling made him immediately reach out to hold Xue Wuhen’s hand and shout anxiously, “Don’t pull!”

Xue Wuhen was shocked by Xu You’s sudden shout and asked strangely, “What’s wrong?”

“Wuhen, let go of the lever first. Don’t touch it. I don’t feel right.” Xu You said nervously.

Hearing this, Xue Wuhen let go of his hand. Xu You’s hand also slowly let go. Most importantly, the extremely bad feeling in his heart also slowly disappeared. Only then did Xu You let out a sigh of relief.

However, when Xue Wuhen looked at him worriedly and doubtfully, Xu You told him what he felt just now. After Xue Wuhen heard this, he frowned and asked, “Are you saying that something bad will happen when this rod is pulled?”

“It should be. This could be some kind of fatal switch. Once it is switched on, we will be killed.” Xu You nodded. Although he didn’t know what kind of mechanism it would be, there would definitely be situations that they couldn’t cope with after opening it. Xu You’s feeling wasn’t wrong. Just as that fellow Buqu once said, this was a man’s intuition. Sometimes, it was very smart.

“But what if this switch is related to our ring?”

“No way. Even so, we should search for other places and turn on this switch when we are sure that there is no ring. If we die and there is no cemetery in the Temple of Ferla, we will be resurrected outside because it is impossible for us to run up with our souls.” Xu You said cautiously.

Xue Wuhen nodded after hearing this. Indeed, he hadn’t searched the entire chapel yet. He couldn’t be sure that the ring was related to the pull rod switch. If it really died, it would be a waste of time.

“Let’s look for this place again. This chapel should be the last place in the temple. Monica’s ring should also appear.” Xu You said.

“Yes, it’s been more than two days. The only hidden mission should be over.” Xue Wuhen had never done such a long and troublesome task before, so she sighed.

As they chatted, they searched the temple chapel. This chapel was actually a church. There were rows of seats. In the middle of the seats was a statue of a goddess. Xu You did not know the name of the goddess. In any case, it was similar to the sacrificial sculpture outside. It was white and slippery. He did not know what was good about it. Xu You looked at the goddess and found another place.

However, the result disappointed the two of them again. There was still no trace of the ring here. Was the ring still in the Ferrah Temple? Xu You and the other two couldn’t help but ask this question. No wonder the old dwarf had told them before they left that it didn’t matter if they couldn’t find it. Could it be that the ring really didn’t exist?

“Don’t give up yet. There’s still a way to go.” Xu You looked at Xue Wuhen, who was similarly depressed, and said firmly.

“En!” Xue Wuhen didn’t want to fail the first couple mission with Xu You.

After walking out of the chapel, Xu You and the others headed straight for the other end of the T-shaped intersection. They went up the stairs, turned around, opened the door, and returned to the dining hall. However, this time, they were on the corridor on the second floor.

“It’s still the same old method. Side by side.” Since it was a corridor, there was naturally one left and one right to go to the opposite exit. Therefore, the two of them separated and searched for the ring on the corridor. In fact, the probability that the ring would be on the corridor was very small. The two of them only held a little hope.

After passing through the corridor on the second floor of the dining hall, they arrived at the corridor of the secret garden, and this corridor had nothing on the ground, so the two of them came to another corridor, corresponding to the corridor below the first floor.

The corridor on the second floor wasn’t much different from the one on the first floor, so Xu You and Xue Wuhen walked in like this. Xu You was in front, and Xue Wuhen was later, but neither of them was as cautious and vigilant as when they walked through the corridor on the first floor.

However, the corridor on the first floor was nothing, which did not mean that it was the same on the second floor. Xu You, who was walking in front, suddenly sank. The mouths of the characters on both sides of the painting suddenly opened, and ten black arrows shot straight at Xu You in the middle!

-1000! …

One black arrow could only deal 1000 damage, so Xu You could only forcefully resist one. Then the other nine were all absorbed by the [Holy Shield Technique]. However, Xu You, who relied on an extraordinary reaction to escape, was already sweating profusely. He cursed in his heart, “Who is so sinister? There are no mechanisms on the first level of the corridor, but they are on the second level. Isn’t this specifically for sinister people?”

“Youyou, be careful!” When she saw the black arrow shoot out, Xue Wuhen reminded her. However, her reminder was not fast enough. At that time, her heart was cold. If Xu You died here, she could only rely on her alone.

However, he didn’t expect Xu You to react so quickly. When the first black arrow hit Xu You, a layer of golden shield appeared on Xu You’s body. He was invincible as a knight’s cheating skill.

Seeing that Xu You wasn’t dead, Xue Wuhen was naturally very happy. However, Xu You stood motionlessly in front of him and asked, “Youyou, are you alright? Are you scared silly?”

“Hu, I’m really scared silly. I almost went to see an angel.” Xu You took a deep breath before answering Xue Wuhen’s question.

“En, I didn’t expect Youyou to react so quickly. We can’t move forward now. You should have taken a few steps forward while the Invincible Effect was still there.” Xue Wuhen smiled and said. Xu You stared blankly for a few seconds before speaking again. The Invincible effect of 10 seconds passed just like that.

“Ah, I also want to, but I didn’t recover all of a sudden.” Xu You said embarrassedly. The [Holy Shield Technique] lasted for 10 seconds, but the cooldown took 10 minutes. Now, he could only wait.

Fortunately, the two of them had spent so much time on this mission. They didn’t care about the 10 minutes. The corridor was only 50 meters long. Now, they were about 10 meters long. With Xu You’s movement speed, as long as he waited for Invincible Cooldown, he would be able to charge through the corridor the next time.

Ten minutes later, Xu You did the same thing. He told Xue Wuhen to wait on the spot. After opening Invincible, he rushed forward and stepped on all the mechanisms he needed to step on. Naturally, Xue Wuhen would be able to safely walk through the corridor behind him.

Then they returned to the small courtyard at the beginning, but this time the ruby at the top of the staff in the hands of the sacrificial sculpture was parallel to Xu You’s chest.

Seeing this, Xue Wuhen finally understood what Xu You meant when he said that he had to go up to the second floor to get the ruby. Could it be that Xu You wanted to fly in the air?
