Chapter 239: Clue Discovered
“I have two healing skills, one restricted with healing effect -50%.”
Player No. 9 male said this in the team channel, only his teammates could see it.
The other three were fine, No. 7 said he had no debuff, No. 6 and No. 8 just had two prop cards randomly banned, and No. 9 said the same to outsiders.
Several people turned their gazes to Yu Jiang, No. 6 asked first, “You weren’t restricted?”
“No.” Yu Jiang shook her head.
“After all, we’re all in the same boat, you know the solution but aren’t willing to remind us!” No. 8’s face showed no expression, but his tone carried some indignation.
“Are you okay?” Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy stepped forward,
“You didn’t say to cooperate beforehand, yet you want us to adventure and help you transfer risk, treating us as fools? We only have four people, how dare we adventure.”
No. 8 wanted to say more, but No. 6 stepped in to smooth things over,
“Okay, okay, no infighting, everyone’s goal is the same, the top priority is to find a way to clear the instance, how about we cooperate to deal with the things in the manor?”
“Sure.” Yu Jiang agreed very straightforwardly.
Just words, no loss.
Everyone wants the other side to draw fire, isn’t that a form of cooperation?
“Our captain is bearing the HP decline buff, defense greatly reduced, one person probably can’t hold it, does your side have someone who can assist?” No. 6 automatically took over commanding the two teams.
He was thinking that during cooperation, he would have plenty of opportunities to make these four go up first.
Who knew, Yu Jiang looked at him particularly sincerely and said, “We have no defense system players, the highest defense person is not even 40.”
No. 6 player opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything, they didn’t even have someone who could tank monsters? Yet they dared to enter the instance with 4 people.
Even if attack is strong, what’s the use here!
No. 6 held back for half a day, really out of ideas, he didn’t know how to command this broken team setup.
Tonight wasn’t a good time to sneak out to search for clues, the two teams casually said a few words, then each returned to their rooms, continuing to communicate in the team channel.
No. 6: “Can’t gauge the strength of those 4 on the other side, real fools wouldn’t have reacted that fast before.”
No. 5: “Then what to do? We got a weakening buff right upon entering.”
No. 6: “Let’s see the banquet situation tomorrow first, if they are really all squishy, to clear we can only go all out to find items to deal with the monsters, watch them closely then.”
No. 8: “Okay, what’s up with Yu Luo, hasn’t spoken at all.”
Yu Luo was Player No. 7, didn’t make a sound when named, the other four vaguely had a bad premonition, afraid he was affected.
No. 6 calmly said, “Don’t leave your rooms to find him, whatever it is, talk tomorrow.”
The terrain was complex and the manor everywhere exuded eeriness, too risky to go out at night, or it’d be like the gourds saving grandpa.
The other side.
Yu Jiang was talking in the team channel, but her hands didn’t stop moving.
Any useful things she could take, she didn’t let go, even knocking off the wall hangings.
“Sister Jiang, that clanging of yours isn’t demolishing the house, is it?” Lightning Mage King said in astonishment.
“Don’t say it, I really tried, it can be demolished, just the stones are too hard.” Yu Jiang sighed.
Looking at the gray shield on the stone, she felt numb, crowbar sparked but couldn’t knock it off, no wonder this time it didn’t say not to damage instance facilities.
“Everyone rest early, hard battle tomorrow.” Yu Jiang stood by the window looking out, behind was still the garden, except for faint streetlights, only flickering moonlight.
When closing the window, she heard something flapping wings passing through the sky, didn’t see what it was.
That night, Yu Jiang tossed and turned in bed all night without sleeping, even though she had checked the room several times, still felt unsafe.
The next day, around 6 am, sky not yet bright, all players were up.
Yu Jiang’s team drank qi replenishing drinks to suppress fatigue value, the other team also didn’t sleep all night, the kind where eyelids fought but brain wouldn’t sleep.
Except for No. 7 player, when the maid pushed the cart to deliver breakfast, No. 7 appeared in loose pajamas, not like coming to clear instance, more like vacation.
“What’s wrong with you? Called you in team last night and no response.” No. 6 frowned, checked the clear instance team interface status of No. 7 several times, no abnormality found.
Hearing his teammate’s voice, No. 7 was stunned first, reacted after a few seconds, “I didn’t hear, probably too tired and fell asleep.”
Lightning Mage King muttered softly, “Young is good, falls asleep instantly.”
Yu Jiang thought thoughtfully, yesterday everyone was together, No. 7 didn’t do anything in the restaurant, how did he become like this?
Did he waver on his own?
On the road, surviving on tenterhooks, eating and sleeping poorly, daily mileage tasks, the manor had no worries about food and drink, servants waiting, no different from paradise.
Or was he unluckier, yesterday due to the butler’s question, forgot the road survival identity, really thought himself as a doomsday refugee who mistakenly entered the manor.
The breakfast from the manor was very sumptuous, but Western breakfast wasn’t very tempting to Yu Jiang, couldn’t corrupt her at all, she still preferred soy milk, fried dough sticks, wonton, buns.
Outside the sky was always gray and overcast, no sunlight, daytime looked very dark too.
The butler said they could visit part of the manor area, the rest couldn’t be visited, would disturb master resting.
In short, places they could explore during the day were very limited, couldn’t enter the manor main building.
Yu Jiang’s team chose to act together, searched all places they could go, found nothing, Yu Jiang only gathered a few medicinal herbs in the back garden.
“Have to admire your gathering acuity.” Shi Xu was also stunned.
Even supplies in corner stone cracks, she could spot at a glance.
“Nothing, just hand familiarity.” Yu Jiang patted her hands, looked toward the nearby high tower.
This area wasn’t renovated, looked quite old, they went up the high tower, back side was bottomless cliff, underground had building but door locked, system prompted unable to enter.
“Like a storage room, saw a bit of shelves for things, style a bit like handicraft shop service area, items to deal with them!” Yu Jiang realized.
“But can’t we enter here?” Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy puzzled.
“This is just a clue shown to us, the real entrance isn’t here.” Yu Jiang explained.
“Got it, main building opens at banquet time, correct entrance there.” Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy sighed long, “But this is a bit too far.”
Afternoon passed quickly, 7 pm, banquet start time.
Yu Jiang also noticed, butler and servants still treated them respectfully and warmly, but eyes had something extra, the look of eyeing prey.
Not feeling well today, afraid these two chapters are weak,
Later at the banquet, No. 5 and No. 6’s team: run run run
Sister Jiang: demolish demolish demolish, demolish all!
