Tool Man's Guide to Getting Rich

The downward trend of the entire channel is not obvious, if Song Ming is not sensitive to this aspect, he may not be able to feel it.

Although he didn't really understand why this passage was built like this, Gong Lu understood a truth deeply: it takes a lot of extra work to make others unable to detect his little thoughts.

It doesn't take long to go from the first floor to the attic if you take the stairs, but walking through this passage gives people the feeling that it will never end.

Gong Lu and Song Ming were not the only ones who felt this way, as time went by, the players in the team also began to feel puzzled about this matter.

There are no identifiable markers in the monotonous space, and there is no device to check the time. Walking in this unchanging place, the time will seem extraordinarily long.

Fortunately, some of the players were cautious, and made a simple mark before entering.Now that I heard my companions discussing, I checked my mark: "Actually, it hasn't been long since we came in...less than 10 minutes."

"But I feel like we've been walking for half an hour." Someone muttered.

But players know that in these levels, the senses may deceive you, but the marks made in the system panel will never deceive you.

It's not that the main god has never thought of doing something in the system panel, but players with insight and foresight have studied it. The system actually exists parallel to the main god, and the two are independent of each other.

This point was obtained by Gong Lu from the players - he exchanged a little information with the captain based on why the other party could confirm that they had only walked for less than 10 minutes.

Although the captain did not tell the truth by treating him and Song Ming as NPCs, Gong Lu himself knew the main god system, so he could easily figure out the situation.

"Do you think their system panel may have the same origin as our system?"

Just like the levels mastered by their system will be polluted by that system, that system will definitely be affected to a certain extent.

This is not big news, but it is very useful for Gong Lu and Song Ming - at least they don't have to worry that these players will be misled by the system and do things that are contrary to their purpose.

Knowing that the concept of time is easy to be confused when walking in this passage, the players counted in a low voice while walking.Although it is not accurate to every second, they can have a rough idea of ​​the duration and will no longer feel "too long".

When they counted to three hundred, the director who was walking in the front stopped and turned around.

The players looked behind him, only to see a huge door.

The style of that door is somewhat similar to the door of the principal's room on the third floor, the only difference is that the spiral pattern on it is no longer a dark pattern, but a golden light shining faintly in the darkness.

Under the reflection of the candlelight in the director's hand, he seemed to be able to see something flowing back and forth along the lines on it, giving "life" to the lines that seemed static.

"This is the most secret place in the castle," the gardener pushed open the door and motioned for everyone to enter. "Only the most special people can know the secret inside. Please keep the secret for me."

After everyone passed through the black gate, the director who remained behind closed the gate smoothly.

So the only light source in the whole environment was the candle in his hand. Before everyone could react, he touched the candle in his hand to something on the wall, and the whole room suddenly lit up.

Everyone was unprepared for this situation, and it took a while to get used to the sudden brightening environment.

Because Gong Lu half-closed his eyes as soon as he entered the door, he adapted quickly.

He took this opportunity to take a good look at the surrounding environment, and found that the situation in the basement was not much different from what he had imagined.

The ground is painted with black and gold spiral patterns, and the most central place is a small 1*1 high platform with a silver-gray box on it, which still emits a strange light under such bright conditions.

As you can see along the spiral pattern, each "corner" has a small marking point, including the 1*1 in the middle.

After confirming that there were no problems with the number of people in the basement, the director clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention: "This is the source of power. Do you want to know the truth and mystery?"

Without waiting for everyone to give a reply, he continued on his own: "Come and let us experience the pleasure of power together? Four of you have already experienced the greatness of mystery with me. Only by returning to mystery can we be eternal."

After he said this, the four players who had been turned into puppets responded immediately.

……

…………

………………

The principal: "What's going on?"

According to his vision, after he finished saying this, the four puppets should immediately detonate the energy ball in their hands, infecting everyone present with mysterious power.

However, he waited for a long time, but he did not feel the increase of the mysterious content in the air.

The captain looked at the four struggling puppets, and felt a little funny for a moment: "Are you looking for the four of them?"

Now that they know that these four people have problems, they will definitely make preparations in advance.

While walking the long passage, the players used props on the four of them.

It's not a particularly advanced prop, it's a bit similar to the "Silence" skill in the game, which makes these four puppets unable to use props for today.

This prop was obtained by one of the players in a messy level, so it also comes with a little fun special effect.

When the selected object uses the props, it is not simply unable to take out the props, but will repeat the action of "wanting to get the props out" like a bug.

It was supposed to be a very serious matter, but when the four puppets made the action of "finding something" in unison, it became funny.

After the director saw this scene, he sneered: "I didn't expect you to discover all of this. But it doesn't matter, as long as the mystery exists, my power will continue to flow!"

At first, some players were still worried about whether the headmaster would be particularly strong, but after hearing him say this a few times, everyone came up with absurd thoughts for no reason: Could this person have a second-degree illness?

The director didn't know the players' slander, but he could feel the change in his own strength, knowing that the players didn't take his words to heart.

He made up his mind to make these ignorant ants look good, and with a twist of his wrist, he summoned the energy ball that was given to everyone before, and immediately detonated it.

Self-detonation is not as effective as Golem using Mystic Ignite, but it's not bad for now.

Feeling the mystery filling the whole space, the principal waved his hand again to control the "mystery" in the room and divide the people present into different small spaces.

Gong Lu counted and found that he happened to divide the people into numbers corresponding to the series.

Both he and Song Ming were "1" at the beginning, standing next to the small table that stood up.

The director began to promote his theory again: "If you want to gain more power, you have to succumb to the mystery... I have evolved from a mortal who knows nothing to where I am today, thanks to the help of the mystery. There is no need to resist , which is the home of all life.”

After Song Ming heard this sentence, his intuition told him that he could use the skill now.He mobilized his senses according to his intuition, activated his passive skills, and immediately saw the "reality" of the director at this time.

He whispered to Gong Lu: "The director is talking now, but there is something else behind him."

When he wanted to see what was behind the director, a voice in his heart kept urging him not to continue.

After he looked away, he realized that the feeling was a bit similar to the situation when he was immersed in painting in the dormitory.

"The existence behind it should be fear... He and the director's body are a little separated, but there is still some seemingly invisible contact between the two. I guess this sacrifice is said to allow the director to gain strength, but it is actually Maintains the link between fear and the director."

They had guessed at the beginning whether the director was replaced by fear, but now it seems that this idea is not entirely correct.

Through sacrifice, fear can have more powerful power in this world, and fear with powerful power can control the director's body.

According to this logic, the power of fear should be at its weakest before the sacrifice.

While the director was still talking, an idea suddenly popped up in Gong Lu's mind.

He rummaged through his backpack to find the leftover towels and washing powder from the previous use, and poured the washing powder into the middle and the box while the director was not paying attention.

At the same time, he quickly wrapped the box with a towel and took the whole box into his hands.

The snail girl and the snail boy are not very capable, but housework is just a piece of cake for them.The products they choose are absolutely reliable in their effectiveness.

The result of the reliable effect is that with this washing powder and towel, the mysterious forces inside and outside the box are all cleaned up.

In the beginning, Gong Lu didn't know how effective this thing was, and he didn't realize it until the director became furious because he couldn't find the middle box.

The team leader watched the headmaster walking back and forth among the crowd, and abruptly ignored the box in Gong Lu's hand. Finally, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and secretly asked Gong Lu: "What's wrong with him?"

It's not that they don't want to be wary of the director, it's just that since seeing this guy, the situation has happened so frequently that it's hard for them to be serious.

Gong Lu was worried that he would attract the director's attention, so he didn't answer directly, but replied: "I feel that he can't actually see it, and he just judges what is around by relying on the mysterious distribution."

The washing powder and towels cleaned the mysterious power around the box, so he couldn't find the location of the box.
