Chapter 500 Core Element (2/2)
After hearing this young man ask the fourth question, Miao Yan sighed to herself.
Although this young man had the same appearance, his demeanour, tone and questions revealed his immaturity. There was a marked disparity between him and the earlier fellow’s maturity and calmness.
It would seem… … that fellow was not lying.
Miao Yan finally raised her head to look forward. Her slender shaped eyes were directed ahead.
“Can you please be quiet?”
Hearing her words, the young man appeared to be at a loss for words. Seeing that, Miao Yan chuckled inwardly.
Fine… … mysterious fellow, I will take good care of you!
…
“What is going on here?”
Chen Xiaolian swore in frustration.
Just now, he had disappeared abruptly from Miao Yan’s side. There were still many important things that he simply did not have the time to tell her.
Disclosure of important information to a third party? Forcibly sent away?
Is this one of the system’s restrictions?
Zero City’s main system sent him back in time. However, he cannot expose too much matters to the people from this time?
He patted his head in frustration before standing up.
Chen Xiaolian had been teleported to a strange looking but… … familiar place.
An antique room.
Calling it an antique room was probably inaccurate. To be more accurate, this place had an antique feel to it. Additionally, it was also very plain.
A short square shaped table, bronze lamp stands, a long bed…
After getting up, Chen Xiaolian checked his surroundings. After spending some time doing so, he walked toward the door.
Pushing the door open, Chen Xiaolian looked out and immediately understood where he was.
Epang Palace!
He was now within one of the rooms inside Epang Palace.
Beyond the door was a long corridor. Just one glance was sufficient for Chen Xiaolian to tell that this was the architectural style of Epang Palace – he had nearly died here back then, how could he not recall it?
As he was looking around, he suddenly heard an orderly wave of footsteps coming from the end of the corridor.
Chen Xiaolian was quick to notice the team of terracotta soldiers with pikes and swords marching forward in a uniform pace.
They were the monsters patrolling Epang Palace.
Chen Xiaolian subconsciously reached out with his hand to summon the Sword in the Stone.
However, he found that his hand was holding thin air.
The Sword in the Stone… … could not be summoned?
Chen Xiaolian was stunned.
However, he soon recollected himself.
Within Epang Palace… no metal was allowed.
In other words, within this Epang Palace area, game participants were not allowed to bring any metal equipment inside. They were also not allowed to summon out and use metal equipment while inside.
Chen Xiaolian could still remember it. Back then, when he was going through this instance dungeon, neither his side nor the Players from the Windslasher Guild were able to use their own weapons. In order to fight here, they had to seize the terracotta soldiers’ weapons after fighting them. It was either that or seizing bronze items from within the palace to use as weapons.
Seeing that the terracotta soldiers were coming closer, Chen Xiaolian frowned and quickly slipped back into the room. He then cautiously closed the door.
He stayed close to the door and listened. After the sound of footsteps had gradually faded away, Chen Xiaolian turned around to look at the room again. He picked up a bronze lamp stand before pushing the door open. Next, he quietly moved across the corridor and into the palace.
“If the timeline did not change after I was teleported earlier, then at this moment, the others had not entered Epang Palace.
“In other words, be it the me from this timeline or Qiu Yun and the others from Nangong Guild, none of them had made it here yet. The same goes for the Windslasher Guild.
“As of now, I am the first to have arrived in Epang Palace!”
Chen Xiaolian’s eyes lit up.
What was the core element of Epang Palace’s final quest?
Without question, it had to be…
Bai Qi.
The God of Slaughter, Bai Qi!
…
