Chapter 185 The holy light spreads the taboo! Lucia! I did not do it on purpose!

[Kill vampires*3, contribution value +150! 】

"..."

Su Xuan stared at the increase in contribution value that popped up in his sight and pondered for a moment.

Although the demons in the castle are individually powerful, their numbers are far less than those in other demon caves. It seems that in order to obtain more contribution points, demons above level 50 must be eliminated.

"Just keep going!"

Everyone continued to move forward, preparing to go through the long corridor to other areas. And just when they were about to reach the end of the corridor...

"Wait! There's something going on!"

Sudden! Everyone stopped.

I saw the corpses of a group of adventurers appearing in the middle of the road at the end of the corridor, lying quietly on the floor.

"Is this an area that other teams have fought in before?" Shen Jun scratched his head and guessed in confusion.

"Probably not, these adventurer corpses do not belong to the same team." Su Xuan categorically denied, he was sure that these adventurer corpses did not come from the same team.

They belong to different teams, but the strange thing is that these corpses are all gathered here.

"Wait a minute, this adventurer seems to be from the Lu Bo Guild?" Suddenly, Shen Shenqi pointed to an orc with cat ears in the pile of corpses and said in surprise.

"Damn it! Lu Bo won't encounter any accidents, right?"

Jun Shen's face instantly darkened. Lu Bo's player evaluation was C-level, and there was a magician above level 50 in the guild.

In addition, the two players traveling with Lu Bo were both C+ level guilds, and there were also two adventurers above level 50 in their team.

If something bad happens to them...

"The adventurer seemed to have been trapped and unfortunately died."

Su Xuan carefully examined the body of the cat-eared adventurer and found that he had multiple wounds penetrated by sharp thorns. Such wounds are usually caused by falling into traps such as spike traps.

The corpses of other adventurers also showed similar wounds, and they all apparently died in traps.

However, what is puzzling is why their bodies were transported here together...

Before Su Xuan could sort out his thoughts, the wall in front of him suddenly opened, like a bloody mouth, and several more corpses were spat out.

"Holy shit! Why did the wall spit out corpses?" Shen Jun exclaimed, looking at the corpse of the adventurer rolling down at his feet with a look of astonishment on his face.

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the wall that was spitting out corpses, and their expressions became extremely solemn. I can't help but wonder, is this castle alive?

"The castle is not a living thing, but a means used by the owner of the castle to clean up the garbage inside."

At this time, magician Kelly Lin explained to everyone: "Obviously, the owner of this castle could not tolerate the corpses scattered all over the house, so he gathered them here. The six vampires in the corridor before were probably in Working as a cleaner or cook in the castle.”

"I see." Shen Jun scratched the back of his head, gaining a new understanding of the scene just now.

"Do you know much about vampires?" Su Xuan asked Kelly Lin curiously.

"It's not an understanding." Kellyn shook her head and explained, "But there is a member of our guild who is a vampire, and she has some knowledge of some habits of vampire nobles."

"Oh~"

Su Xuan nodded thoughtfully. It turned out that there was a vampire in the Fairy Concubine Guild, which was quite rare.

"Let's move on and let the remains of these adventurers rest here."

As Guren said, a ball of flame ignited in his palm and set the pile of corpses on fire.

Everyone continued to move forward. Since they already knew that the castle was full of traps, they became more cautious.

After traveling through several areas and successfully killing a dozen vampire slaves lurking in the darkness, they came to a strange room.

This room is filled with bookshelves, but strangely there are no books on them, instead they are filled with heads.

This strange scene made everyone's expressions change suddenly, and they could not understand the true purpose of this room.

At this time, Su Xuan's eyes were attracted by a withered corpse.

It was a female corpse. The blood had been completely drained from the body, showing a shriveled state, lying quietly on the rocking chair. In her hand, she held tightly a square box with an eye-catching emerald green gem inlaid on the box.

Su Xuan tried to obtain information about the body and the box, but question marks appeared in front of him without any clues.

"Su Xuan, look! There is a treasure box there!"

Suddenly, Shen Jun's shout attracted everyone's attention.

On the right side of the corpse, a golden treasure box was emitting an alluring light.

"This is obviously a trap!"

Shen Shenqi glared at her cousin, feeling that he was too unreliable.

"Something's not quite right here, it's better to be careful." Su Xuan said to everyone vigilantly.

His eyes wandered around the room, looking for any possible passage, as this area was the only place they could move forward at the moment. They had fully explored the area they passed through, but had found no other way.

"Is it there?"

Su Xuan's eyes fell on the wall behind the female corpse. There seemed to be a hidden doorway. Although it was not easy to detect, there were signs indicating its existence.

But one thing is certain, there must be some kind of trap around the female corpse. To reach the area ahead, they must first disarm the trap hidden near the female corpse.

"We must find the trap hidden near the female corpse before we can move forward." Su Xuan reminded Shen Shenqi and the others.

"Is it a trap? How about I destroy the trap directly with flames?" Honglian suggested.

"There is no need to do this. Let my adventurers solve the problem of traps." Shen Shenqi said, pushing a female dwarf forward, and added, "Brooke is one of the dwarves who is proficient in traps. Expert, she has the ability to disarm these traps.”

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Brooke responded confidently.

Then, the dwarf took out a set of special demolition tools from his backpack and carefully walked towards the female corpse.

After some skillful operations on her part, the surrounding trap triggering devices were destroyed one by one.

"Phew~ Done!"

The dwarf waved to everyone, indicating that it was safe for them to come over.

Everyone walked into the room with confidence and slowly walked towards the female body.

Su Xuan's eyes stayed on Shen Siqi for a while. Obviously, there must be a special reason why the president of the Fairy Concubine Guild invited Shen Qi and Shen Jun, who were rated by D+ players, to participate in the high-risk magic cave activities.

After all, it is indeed too difficult for a D+ level guild to challenge a high-risk demon cave. Without the help of Honglian and the others, the Shen brothers and sisters' guild would probably be completely wiped out here by relying on their own strength.

But after he saw the dwarf who could disarm the trap, Su Xuan suddenly realized something...

"Now! The trap has been lifted, let's see what treasures are in this treasure box!" Shen Shenqi walked up to the shining golden treasure box with great expectation. When she opened the treasure box, the gold coins inside immediately made her lips smile. Provoked a smile!

"Wow! It's dozens of gold coins!"

"Get rich!"

The Shen brothers and sisters excitedly took out the gold coins from the treasure box. Dozens of gold coins were not a small amount for anyone!

While they were happily counting the gold coins, Su Xuan's eyes fell on the small box in the arms of the female corpse.

This small box didn't seem to emit any magic fluctuations, but for some reason, it made Su Xuan feel inexplicably concerned.

And this female corpse does not look like a vampire in appearance, but more like a human woman who has been eaten up by a vampire.

At this time, Honglian walked up to Su Xuan and said to Su Xuan, "Our president said that this box seems to be the key to unlocking an opportunity mission."

"Mission of opportunity?"

When Su Xuan heard Honglian's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.

So far, he has not encountered a mission of opportunity, because missions of opportunity are rarer than hidden missions and can only be encountered by players with a high luck value.

It is not a specific task type and does not have a complicated task process. It may be more similar to tasks such as decryption.

But as long as you complete the opportunity mission, you can get generous rewards!

"What should I say?" Hong Lian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, "Would you like to give it a try? I can assist you."

"Then give it a try." Su Xuan decided to give it a try and reached out to the mysterious square box.

The moment he touched the box, a dazzling blue beam of light shot out from the box and enveloped them.

Immediately afterwards, a prompt popped up on the interface in front of Su Xuan:

[Mission of Opportunity—Star Magic Box (triggered), moving location! 】

Before he could finish analyzing this prompt, they were teleported to the mission of opportunity venue by a blue light. Joining him in this strange realm were Ifsa, Lucia and Guren. The reason is that the three of them were standing together with Su Xuan at that time, so they were also shrouded in this mysterious blue light.

"Where is this place?" Honglian looked around. The scene in front of him seemed like a vast starry sky. Could it be that they had come to the universe?

However, the strange thing is that they are not floating in the endless space of the universe. Although there is nothing under their feet, they can clearly feel the existence of the solid ground under their feet, as if they are standing on a transparent glass plate.

"Mr. Su Xuan~ What does this mission require us to do?" Evesha turned to Su Xuan curiously and asked.

"Let me see..." Su Xuan looked at the detailed description of the mission intently.

[Star Magic Box: Please find the correct star among thousands of stars! 】

[Answer tip: Witch]

[Task reward: A wisp of star power]

[Note: If the puzzle is not solved within 30 minutes, you will be sent back to the original position. 】

Su Xuan couldn't help but feel a little confused when he looked at the mission description and the clues.

Is this Star Magic Box somehow related to the Star Kingdom?

Could it be a relic left by the Night Witch?

also……

Su Xuan's eyes were wandering around, and his brows were slightly furrowed. He needed to find the correct star among countless stars according to the clues in just thirty minutes. This seemed to be a very challenging task. Task.

However, no matter how difficult it is, he still has to face it bravely. Su Xuan immediately told Lucia and others the specific requirements of the mission.

"Looking for the right star among countless stars? How is this possible?" Guren shook her head in confusion. She was better at fighting than solving puzzles.

Lucia began to analyze the key information in the prompt: "Witch..." Her beautiful eyes were staring at the starry sky in the distance, and her first reaction to the prompt was about the constellations.

But in fact, there is no Witch in the constellation.

"Mr. Su Xuan, I always feel that the stars around me seem to be moving?" Just as Su Xuan was also struggling to find the answer, Evesha quickly reminded him.

"move?"

Su Xuan was stunned at first, but soon realized that what Ifusa said seemed to be true!

The starry sky is really approaching them...

wrong!

Su Xuan then noticed that it was not the starry sky that was approaching, but the glass-like wall that was shrinking and squeezing towards them!

Moreover, judging from the speed, let alone thirty minutes, within three minutes I might not be able to find a place to stay!

Su Xuan immediately scanned the surroundings, eagerly looking for the correct star.

If the hint to the riddle is related to the witch and involves stars, then there is a high probability that it is closely related to the Night Witch.

After all, in the Kingdom of Stars, Night Witch appears most frequently.

but……

"!!!"

Before Su Xuan's thoughts could fully unfold, the invisible wall had already squeezed them so hard that they could hardly move.

Four people were squeezed into a narrow square space, tightly touching each other.

Although the shrinking of space has temporarily stopped, the situation at this time is quite embarrassing. Since Su Xuan originally stood in the center, he was naturally squeezed in and tightly surrounded by Lucia and the others.

And directly in front of him was Lucia. Due to the squeeze of the wall, her white body was pressed tightly against Su Xuan's chest, almost deforming!

"Really are!?"

Lucia bit her teeth lightly, a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

She didn't understand why this task had such restrictions? Was this mission originally designed for one person?

"Hahaha! This is really tricky. In such a crowded environment, it may be even harder to solve the puzzle." Honglian smiled and squeezed forward.

This tall female elf was squeezing Su Xuan's left shoulder with her proud white body, almost touching the side of his face. The feeling was really indescribable!

"Mr. Su Xuan, although it's a bit crowded here..." Evesha, who was on the right side of Su Xuan, smiled. That charming smile was heart-warming, "But the strange thing is that this small space makes people's hearts beat faster~ I I like it very much~"

As the words fell, Ifusa's heart-shaped tail quietly appeared and gently wrapped around Su Xuan's arm.

[Efusha’s current desire: 366! 】

"???"

Su Xuan frowned slightly and thought to himself: Evesha, this is not the time!

But~Efusha believes that such close contact can make Su Xuan focus more on thinking about problems~

"Huh~"

Suddenly, Ifusa came close to his ear, lightly opened her red lips, and exhaled like a blue breath.

That sweet and charming aura caused the Holy Light's defense to be defeated at that moment, shining brightly, as if urging Su Xuan to step forward and fight for Evesa!

However, this raises a serious question. Because at this moment, Su Xuan is facing Lucia!

From the beginning of her relationship with Su Xuan, she noticed the holy light hidden in him. Fortunately, the light was not strong, and it only made her feel slightly uncomfortable through her clothes. Now that the situation was urgent, she could barely accept it.

But when she felt the sacred light gradually becoming brighter and hotter, her heart instantly panicked!

because!

She could clearly feel that the bright light was slowly spreading towards the taboo...
