Chapter 207 - Chapter 207: Chapter 167: Your Ancestor Down Below Has a Lot of Say (5000-word Mega Chapter)_3 (2/2)
Old Lu looked and nodded, confusedly replied, “I see them, so what?”
Su Yu, Qin Sisi, and Shen Qianqian also looked in the direction indicated; there was a row of small holes on both sides.
Lin Chuan said with a smile, “If you use this cutter to cut the Stone Gate, and if you’re slightly careless, those two rows of small holes will shoot arrows out, turning you into skewers.”
Old Lu’s expression changed, a hint of fear appearing on his face: “No way?”
“Why not?” Lin Chuan countered.
“But with so much time passed, wouldn’t the mechanism have rotted away?” Old Lu asked, still in disbelief.
“If we can think of that issue, don’t you think our ancestors would have, too?” Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow and asked.
Hiss!
Old Lu and the others behind him sharply inhaled, complex expressions surfacing on their faces.
“Doesn’t that mean there’s no way to enter the tomb chamber?” Old Lu was puzzled.
Lin Chuan looked at Old Lu and chuckled, “It’s a tomb, not a death trap.”
Old Lu curled his lip and muttered quietly, “But how do we open the Stone Gate, to enter the tomb?”
“Let me give it a try.”
Having said that, Lin Chuan surveyed the area around the Stone Gate and the ground, then found a palm-sized rock nearby and threw it out.
This move was called ‘throwing a stone to ask the way.’
Being cautious and meticulous is always the top priority for a Touch Gold Captain.
The tomb can be left unrobbed, but one must preserve their life.
Luckily, as everyone watched, the rock continued to roll up to the Stone Gate without triggering any accidents.
Only then did Lin Chuan feel reassured to approach it.
He stood in front of the Stone Gate and gently curled his index finger to knock on it, producing a ‘thud thud thud’ sound that was somewhat muffled.
However, one could make out a faint echo within the ‘thud thud thud’ ringing inside the Stone Gate.
This two-meter-tall Stone Gate was not entirely solid after all.
Lin Chuan looked closely at the Stone Gate, which suddenly seemed familiar to him.
This Stone Gate resembled the Stone Gate Mechanism template from the Virtual World!
The more he looked, the more similar it appeared!
“Could it be that the system got lazy and used a real-world Stone Gate as a model for the Virtual World?” Lin Chuan muttered to himself.
Regardless, Lin Chuan didn’t dwell on it too much.
His gaze settled on the animal pattern that resembled a white tiger.
At the mouth of the tiger, there were two small holes.
Lin Chuan shone his flashlight into the holes, spotting many protruding blocks which seemed like the convex parts of a mechanism; he then reached in to feel around.
Huh?
This tactile sensation of concave and convex was identical to the Stone Gate Mechanism template from the Virtual World.
Lin Chuan wouldn’t forget this feeling.
This was his first time dealing with a Stone Gate Mechanism!
Confident about the Stone Gate Mechanism, Lin Chuan inserted his two fingers into the small holes in the Stone Gate, touching one of the protruding points, and then exerted a sudden force!
Double Finger Probe!
