Hearing this, the clerk looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly, "I don't know the details. This wall has been there since I started working in the store. I knocked on it a few times and it's obviously hollow and soundproof. I asked the shopkeeper, and he just said to mind my own business and not to touch this wall."

"Is that so... Then let's get a room here."

Chen Bei pointed to an empty room next to him and said, "No matter whether it is first class or second class, just stay there first."

The waiter helped them check in and signed their names, and then Chen Bei and the other person went into the room together.

I'm staying here just to uncover the mystery of the secret door, but of course I won't stay for too long.

The simplest and most brutal method is to just break through the wall and go through to find out what's going on.

Chen Bei has a more "gentle" way.

He took out a flashlight that had not been used for a long time, pointed it at the wall, and pressed it to emit a beam of light.

A big hole immediately appeared on the wall, through which one could pass.

Chen Bei called Xuejian together, and they went through the big hole and reached the other side.

There was a lot of dust on the opposite side, and the original windows were sealed. It was obvious that no one had been there for a long time.

Although the Escape Flashlight is called a flashlight, it should not be used indiscriminately.

Chen Bei condensed his magic power directly on his fingers, forming a halo, which was enough to illuminate.

The two walked along the dusty ground and turned at the corner.

Looking further ahead, there is a closed door opposite.

Measured from the overall spatial layout of the inn.

Behind this door is outside the inn.

Logically speaking, if you open the door and step out, you will fall downstairs.

The door was made of wood with an oval groove in the middle, inlaid with a painting of a seated woman.

The woman had a thin face, a flower tied in her hair, and wore a slanted-collar, wide-sleeved top with flowers embroidered on the fabric.

The sitting posture is very proper, with legs together, one hand on the knee and the other hand raised.

The woman in the painting actually moved and waved.

This is an old painting in which the woman moves, coupled with the dark and closed environment, creating a sense of absurdity that gives people goose bumps.

Chen Bei's rational attribute jumped, and he stepped forward.

Visually, the door is probably less than ten meters away.

Chen Bei walked for a while and found something wrong. He was still some distance away from the door.

He frowned slightly, quickened his pace, and later simply ran at full speed.

But no matter how fast I speed up, I still can't reach the door!

The distance in the middle seems to be extended infinitely.

Or maybe Chen Bei has been standing still.

Chen Bei looked down at his feet and found that the footprints were normal and there was not a lot of overlap.

"Sure enough, every door has a trick, and none of them is easy to open." Chen Bei said.

"Could it be a ghost wall or something like that?" Xuejian asked.

"I don't sense any negative energy, and the snake pattern is also very quiet. It's definitely not a ghost."

"Try to go back to the corner you just turned."

"Ah."

Chen Bei and Xue Jian retreated together. Now they had a normal sense of space and after taking a few steps back they returned to the corner.

It seems that only when you get close to the door will you enter an insurmountable state, and it is okay to retreat.

It is probably because of the existence of such a strange door that the owner of the inn blocked the road with a wall to avoid scaring the guests.

Chen Bei went back to the door and tried to go in, but it was the same as before. He could only see the door but couldn't walk through it.

The woman in the painting on the door sometimes sits there motionless, and sometimes raises her hand to signal others to come over.

"The way to get to the door is either from the painting or by getting information from the people in the inn."

Chen Bei muttered.

He also had a third method in mind, which was to get the answer directly from the administrator.

This is the most direct one.

Chen Bei looked at the management group and found that the administrators were all paying attention to other players and not him.

This game is full of experts.

Chen Bei was not conspicuous inside, so the administrator naturally didn't pay much attention to him.

I didn't see any information about the door in front of me, but I did see other important information.

[How many mysterious fragments have these players collected?]

[It’s quite a lot, thirteen pieces in total.]

[We are still far from the fragments needed to open the 'Gate to the Outside World'.]

[Even if they have a big player like T00 leading the team, they may not be able to gather the required fragments within a month.]

[If they can't get the 'Door to the Outside World' together, their plan will fail, and the key will be useless.]

[Even if they succeed, they won’t have a good ending. The world that the ‘Gate to the Outside World’ leads to is not necessarily better than this game world. It’s just another kind of suffering!]

-

Chen Bei saw these conversations.

The door that is opened by collecting the mysterious fragments is actually called "The Door Beyond the Realm".

But the world that this door leads to is not so beautiful!

Originally, Chen Bei didn't dare to have too high expectations, and now he has given up even more.

Even if you open the door to the outside world and escape from this game world, the future you are heading to is still dark!

Chen Bei adjusted his goal in his mind.

Put aside the goal of escaping the game for the time being, and make dealing with T00 and surviving the game your main goal.

As for now, we still need to figure out how to open the door in front of us.

Chen Bei took out the fatal gun and aimed it at the door opposite.

Attacking the door directly is the simplest and most brutal approach.

Maybe this is the answer.

Chen Bei pulled the trigger and shot out several rays of death, which flashed by and seemed not to even touch the door.

He changed the gun, but the same thing happened.

He changed to the Nine Deaths Sword and slashed out the bloody sword energy, which flew far away until it dissipated.

The door opposite was intact.

It seems that there is no chance of breaking the door by force.

Chen Bei and Xue Jian studied together how to break the door, and they tried their best if they had any ideas.

As time went by, the people in the painting on the door made more different movements.

Sometimes, she would draw circles with her hands.

Sometimes, she would raise her hand and turn it over and over again, sometimes with the back of her hand facing forward and sometimes with the palm facing forward.

These messy gestures may be the key to opening the door.

Chen Bei had no idea what to do and was feeling a little annoyed.

"If you really can't think of a way to open the door, just kidnap the store owner. He must know something. Give him a severe torture package, and he won't be afraid of not telling the truth." Chen Bei said.

"Look, her gesture has changed again!" Xuejian pointed forward.

Chen Bei looked over and found that it had indeed changed.

The woman in the painting stretched out two fingers, as if simulating the movement of walking, and placed her fingers on the palm of her other hand, gesticulating.

Chen Bei didn't see any clue.

Xue Jian had an idea, and said, "From what she said, it seems that she wants us to turn around and move backwards!"

"Ah? Is that what you mean?" Chen Bei said.

"Yes and no. You'll know after you try it. You stay here and don't move. I'll do the experiment alone. If there's any danger, you take care of me."

"I'll go. You stay here and keep watch."
