Chapter 170 World 2: Finding Reality in the End of the Infinite Stream 78

Bian Tingchu and Lin Xuan looked at each other. The handwriting on the note seemed to still carry Alina's anxious emotions. Bian Tingchu said anxiously: "It's too dangerous for her to go alone. We must go find her!"

"It's dangerous for her to be alone. Wouldn't it be safe for us to go find her?" Lin Xuan asked doubtfully.

Bian Tingchu said affirmatively: "Of course she is not dangerous. We will be in danger if we leave her. She is still sane now. If she goes to see the wizard alone, she might become crazy again the next time we see her. So let's go find her quickly! She hasn't gone far."

Lin Xuan nodded, his expression solemn: "You are right, we can't leave her alone to face the wizard. But first, we need a plan."

The two quickly analyzed the current situation and decided to act separately. Bian Tingchu went to find the secret passage in the castle, hoping to find Elena or avoid the eyes and ears of the wizard; while Lin Xuan tried to contact other members and gather everyone's strength to fight against the wizard together.

Bian Tingchu shuttled through the secret passages of the ancient castle. Relying on Elena's previous description, she carefully avoided the patrolling men.

The atmosphere in the castle became increasingly tense, and every step could trigger a trap or encounter an enemy. But she did not back down, with only the firm belief in rescuing Elina in her heart.

On the other side, Lin Xuan used the communication equipment to contact other members. Everyone quickly gathered together, and although they were scattered in different locations, they all expressed their willingness to go to support immediately.

Mu Luoxi and the gardener hid in a corner and heard Lin Xuan's call. The gardener said in a trembling voice: "We...we are also willing to help, although I may not be able to help much."

Lin Xuan said gratefully: "Every bit of strength is important, thank you. Now, we need to find Bian Tingchu and Alina, and then work out a countermeasure together."

With the efforts of everyone, they gradually came together. Zhao Yuxin and Wang Lei took the clue of the ancient recipe found in the kitchen. Although a page was torn off, they believed that it might be related to the secret of the wizard;

Mu Qingru brings historical records of the castle, which contain clues about the wizard and the ring; while Li Rongxue and Zhang Hongming record every detail of the castle through their artwork, which may become the key to solving the mystery.

Shi Qi brought more stories about the owner of the castle from the study, and she found that the clues in the script were surprisingly consistent with the records in the history books. Everyone sat together, sharing their own information, trying to piece together the complete truth.

At this moment, the bells in the castle rang again, but this time with an unusual urgency. The wizard seemed to have discovered their gathering and was approaching quickly.

Bian Tingchu suddenly said: "I remember Elina mentioned a secret passage leading to the basement, where the ring may be hidden or where the wizard is. We must find it as soon as possible!"

In the tense atmosphere, everyone decided to follow Bian Tingchu's guidance and go to the basement along the secret passage. They avoided the patrolling men and entered the basement.

Bian Tingchu led everyone through the intricate passages based on her memory. Suddenly, she stopped and pointed to a rusty iron door in front of her and said, "This is it. Elina said that the deepest secret of the castle is hidden behind this door."

Shi Qi walked forward and tried to push the door, only to find it was locked. She turned back to look at everyone and said, "We need to find a way to open this door."

Zhao Xinyu looked around, and suddenly her eyes were attracted by a stone tablet on the wall. There were some strange symbols and patterns engraved on the stone tablet. She studied it carefully for a while and said, "These symbols seem to be very similar to the symbols on the torn page of the ancient cookbook we found in the kitchen."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingru immediately took out the history book from his backpack and turned to the page that recorded the ancient symbols. After comparing, he found that the symbols on the stone tablet and the symbols in the history book were indeed surprisingly consistent.

"It seems that we need to arrange these symbols in a certain order to open this door." Mu Qingru said.

Everyone started to work together, some studied the arrangement of symbols, and some tried to find a place on the door where they could input symbols. After some effort, they finally found a hidden groove and arranged the symbols in the correct order.

With a soft "click", the iron door slowly opened. Everyone walked into the room behind the door with a nervous and expectant mood.

The room was full of dust and cobwebs, but on a stone platform in the center was a glittering ring. The ring looked extremely gorgeous, inlaid with many dazzling gems, emitting an alluring glow.

"Is this the ring the wizard has been looking for?" Zhao Yuxin asked in surprise.

She walked forward, carefully picked up the ring, and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, her face turned pale, and the ring in her hand seemed to have some kind of magic that was absorbing her strength.

"Oh no, put the ring down!" Lin Xuan shouted.

But Zhao Yuxin could no longer control her hand. The light on the ring became brighter and brighter, and her body began to gradually become weaker. At this moment, a gloomy voice echoed in the room.

"Humph, I finally found you. It seems that the ring has chosen its new owner."

As the voice fell, the wizard's figure slowly appeared at the entrance of the room. "It" was wearing a black robe and a strange mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes flashing with cold light.

Everyone immediately took a fighting stance, ready to face the wizard's attack. But the wizard did not attack immediately, but slowly walked towards Zhao Yuxin.

"Give me the ring and I will spare your lives," said the wizard.

Lin Xuan tightly grasped the weapon in his hand and stood in front of Zhao Yuxin with a firm gaze: "Don't even think about it! We will protect the ring and won't let it fall into your hands!"

The wizard sneered and waved the staff in his hand lightly. A cold aura suddenly spread out: "Foolish human, do you think you can stop me with your strength? The power of this ring is beyond your imagination."

Bian Tingchu said: "We won't give up. Elina is still waiting to kill you. We can't let her down!"

A deep laugh came from under the wizard's mask. The voice seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. It carried a majesty and ridicule that could not be ignored: "Elina? Humph, she is just a pawn in my plan. Kill me? You bunch of ants, you are really daydreaming. Dream on."

Shi Qi was playing with a ball of light in his hand, and said with disdain: "Why, isn't it a simple matter to kill you?"

The wizard's laughter suddenly stopped, and a hint of anger flashed in "it"'s eyes: "This is ridiculous. You can't attack me, but they want to kill me?"

Shi Qi asked in confusion: "Why can't I kill you? Didn't I kill you once when you possessed Mu Luoxi's body? Who gave you the confidence that I can't touch you?"

The wizard's eyes flickered, as if he was recalling the past that Shi Qi mentioned. After a moment, "it" sneered, with a hint of unwillingness in its voice: "That was just a small setback due to my carelessness. Because I occupied someone else's body, you have the right to put things back on track. And now, I am using my own body, there is no violation, you can't interfere in what's going on here."

Shi Qi said: "I am not 'Him', 'Him' cannot interfere, but I can."

The wizard's expression changed slightly, as if he was surprised by Shi Qi's words, but then he returned to his stern expression: "Humph, who do you think you are? What can you change? Whether it is you or them, you are just ants. I don't want to listen to you, everything you say is a lie."

Shi Qi said: "I didn't intend to listen to you either." After he finished speaking, Shi Qi raised his hand, grabbed the wizard's neck with his spiritual power, and lifted "it" high up. An expression of disbelief appeared on the wizard's face. "It" struggled, but was completely unable to break free from Shi Qi's restraints.

"You...how could you...let...me go. I'm going to kill you." The wizard's voice became intermittent due to suffocation.
