Chapter 420: Chapter 420 Breaking into the Underground Palace
Chen Yu didn’t say much either, he patted the little boy on the shoulder and then led the way down.
The people following behind were also clear-cut, they organized their equipment swiftly and marched down imposingly, but still leaving half their team outside on alert.
The people trailing behind drew closer with each step and would soon reach the ancient city.
Those remaining outside could only use their vehicles to encircle the edge of the ancient city and also set up sandbags on the spot.
If those guys wanted to force their way in, they would have no choice but to engage.
The underground palace turned out to be much more complicated than imagined, and Chen Yu felt somewhat overwhelmed as soon as he descended.
Although his mind now contained all knowledge within human cognition, he was still unfamiliar with some of the mechanisms here.
He could only rely on the knowledge in his mind to deduce backwards and barely managed to dismantle a few traps.
But just these few traps left him dizzy and covered with sweat on his forehead, fearing that if he continued, he might faint.
“I really didn’t expect Mr. Chen to be so familiar with this place, with you here, we will soon be able to reach the depths of the underground palace.”
Snow spoke without any discomfort of his own, even though he had long noticed the sweat beads on Chen Yu’s forehead, he still chose to offer these flattering words, not wanting Chen Yu to stop.
“Kid, we’ve given you enough respect already!” Jin Lingsu directly drew the golden spike from her waist. “You’d better stand there quietly, don’t talk, or else I’ll stab you to death.”
Snow certainly understood the importance of Chen Yu, and since Jin Lingsu and Luo Sanpao were experts, he didn’t dare act rashly, only able to squat by the wall and wait quietly.
[System adaptive capability activated]
[Synchronization with host’s brain commencing]
[Degree of fusion 60%… 80%… 100%]
A nimble voice suddenly rang in Chen Yu’s mind, stirring excitement within him.
The next moment, blue and white light rippled out, instantly covering the entire underground palace, revealing all its traps and secret passages within his mind.
Chen Yu adjusted his breathing slightly and then stood up, leaning against the wall.
By this moment, the system’s autonomous medical function had been activated, rapidly restoring his body.
After several evolutions, the system now seemed like a human being with its consciousness.
Within its protective functions, not only did it have defensive capabilities, but also medical ones, and it could even control the consumption of nutrients inside Chen Yu’s body when necessary, helping to maintain his stamina.
Seeing Chen Yu suddenly as if transformed into another person, Snow’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Mr. Chen, hadn’t your strength completely depleted just now? How did you recover so quickly?”
Jin Lingsu was not pleased, she immediately placed the golden spike against Snow’s neck.
“Are you really serious about cooperating with us, or do you want to see our people get into trouble?”
Startled, Snow quickly retreated several steps back.
Jin Lingsu didn’t say anything else; after all, they were in a cooperative relationship for now. If they were to start a conflict, both sides might immediately come to blows.
In such a narrow place full of traps, if they were to fight, neither side would benefit.
Chen Yu didn’t say much either, just kept walking deeper into the place by himself.
After navigating several bends, they finally reached a large hall.
This place looked extremely luxurious, with a vast amount of jewels piling up the entire room.
Considering the scale of the treasures here, even if all those present worked for three days and nights, they might not be able to move out all the treasures.
