Chapter 273 Land of Lost

Chapter 136 Into the Lost Land

After entering the basement of the Ziyang Ancient Mansion.

Shi Feng looked around but didn't find anything special.

The entire room was empty, with nothing to hide, no cold wind blowing out the lights, and no soul-crushing sense of oppression.

"Why is there nothing here? Could it be that my senses are wrong?" Huo Wu, finding no monsters, sheathed her dagger.

"I don't know, but it's true that there's no danger here." Shi Feng shook his head.

With more battles in God's Domain, players' ability to sense danger was gradually improving.

The experts of God's Domain were even more sensitive.

Moreover, this ability to sense danger generally didn't go wrong.

"Let's take a closer look anyway," Shi Feng said.

If the mystery of the hidden god wasn't solved, and something happened to scare the NPC who came to issue the quest, it would be a tragedy.

It wouldn't affect the players much; at worst, they would be unlucky and die once, losing a level and some skill proficiency. But NPCs were different; if they died, they were really dead. The main system wouldn't restore them.

So, this problem had to be solved, or this blessed land would be ruined.

After searching everywhere for more than ten minutes, the three of them didn't find anything wrong. Not even a mouse could be found.

But Shi Feng didn't feel that the enormous pressure he had encountered before was an illusion. Moreover, he had felt it before, but he couldn't remember when.

After searching for a long time without a single clue, Shi Feng and the others had no choice but to go upstairs.

"What's going on?" After arriving upstairs, Water Rose was shocked by the scene before her.

Not only was Water Rose shocked, but Shi Feng was also taken aback.

They had only returned to the main hall on the first floor, but the scene had completely changed. It was no longer an empty, dilapidated hall, but an incredibly complex maze of corridors, as if they had come to another place. It wasn't the same Ziyang Ancient Mansion as before.

At this moment, the system also issued a notification.

System: Discovered the Lost Land. All communication between players and the outside world is temporarily closed.

"So that's what happened." Shi Feng suddenly understood. Now he understood why the owners of the mansion had disappeared one by one; they had been teleported to this place.

"Guild Leader, the Return Scroll can't be used," Huo Wu frowned slightly. "It's just like in the Trial of the Gods."

"It seems this place is not simple," Shi Feng said, examining his surroundings.

Shi Feng had encountered such things many times in his previous life, like the Lost Land he had entered not long after entering God's Domain, where he had obtained the Demonic Weapon, Abyss Blade.

Although this Lost Land was different from the Lost Land before, it was similar. They would probably be allowed to leave only after completing a certain quest. However, there was a quest prompt in the Lost Land before, but there was no reminder here.

Immediately, the three of them entered this maze and began exploring the map.

It had to be said that this map was extremely large. Shi Feng didn't explore the entire map even after wandering around for six or seven hours. Finally, they decided to split up and explore, since they hadn't encountered any danger. This way, they would be more efficient.

Before they knew it, a day had passed.

It wasn't until the next day that Water Rose made a new discovery in the area she was exploring.

It was a large magic array. According to the conjecture of elementalists like Shi Feng and Water Rose, this was a Tier 5 or higher magic array. However, even the experienced Shi Feng couldn't guess what this magic array was for, unless there was a Tier 5 Saint Magister or a Tier 6 Archmage present.

After exploring for another day, Huo Wu found a second magic array, which was exactly the same as the first. Besides that, there was nothing else, not even a monster, let alone any quest prompts.

Water Rose even wanted to give up and just commit suicide to return to the city.

In such a desolate place, they couldn't level up or do quests. It was a complete waste of time. She was a guild manager, how could she waste so much time in this place? Moreover, the guild had a residence, and she had many things to do.

However, Water Rose's actions were dissuaded by Shi Feng.

Because even if Water Rose committed suicide, she might not be able to return. If she couldn't return, she would also lose a level, which would be a tragedy.

Water Rose had no choice but to give up this idea and continue exploring the Lost Land.

On the third day that Shi Feng came to the Lost Land, he finally explored most of it and found three more magic arrays. So far, they had found a total of five Tier 5 magic arrays.

Then, the three of them gathered and shared the map information.

The moment the map information was exchanged, the system issued another notification.

System: The unique quest "Unseal the Relic" has been activated. Remove the seal of the Lost Land. Reward: unknown.

"Remove the seal, and they don't even say how to remove it. What are we supposed to do?" Huo Wu widened her beautiful eyes and laughed in anger.

They had been stuck in this place for three days, and this was what they were asked to do, without even a single hint. This was too outrageous.

"It should be here." Shi Feng pointed to the center of the five magic arrays on the map and said, "The operation of magic arrays requires magical power, and magical power is generally supplied by magic crystals. However, there are no magic crystals in these five magic arrays. Moreover, these five magic arrays are integrated, so the magical power should be coming from one place. We have already explored the surrounding areas of the Lost Land, and only the central area hasn't been explored. The most likely place is the center of the Lost Land. As long as we destroy the magic crystal in the center, we should be able to complete this quest."

"Guild Leader, I didn't expect you to know so much about magic arrays. I even suspect that you're not a Swordsman at all, but an Elementalist or a Curse-user," Water Rose joked.

"I just happened to have studied it occasionally. There are many books on this topic in the White River City library. If you read all the books in the White River City library, you'll definitely be better than me," Shi Feng said with a smile.

"The library? I do want to go in, but I need a permit. Since you've said so, Guild Leader, you have to be responsible," Water Rose also knew the importance of the library. The best way for elementalists to learn more powerful skills was to go to the library, but she was struggling without a permit and could only slowly increase her reputation in White River City.

"Okay, I'll get you a library permit when we get out," Shi Feng said, shaking his head and smiling.

When he was a Demon Hunter, he could get a permit to enter the library at any time. Now that he was the Viscount of White River City, it wouldn't be a problem to get three or five library emblems as a great noble of White River City.

Then, the three of them ran to the central area of the Lost Land.

Four hours later, the three of them arrived outside the central area, but to enter, they needed to pass through a long crystal corridor. However, at the entrance of the crystal corridor, there was a three-headed giant wolf made of blue crystals blocking the way.

"So there are monsters here too." Huo Wu saw this three-headed crystal giant wolf, her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she became slightly interested. She hadn't fought in days and was already itching for a fight.
