"Are you going to ask me why Mudstone is unwilling to use this token to leave this world?" the old man asked in return.Adrian nodded. This old man was surely a freak who had lived for goodness knows how many years."I will tell you the answer when you get back, provided you come back alive, of course," the old man said smilingly."That’s a fair trade." Adrian stood up and nodded to the old man.‘That’s how everything seems on the surface,’ he added to himself.Entering a place where there was a one in ten chance of survival, finding precious items, and exchanging them for the Dragon Token in the old man's hands. For Adrian, it was fair. He didn't think there was anything wrong with the old man's request. The old man could have lent those before him the token, thus allowing them to leave this place. In that case, those previous people wouldn't have died here either. But in this world, there was never anything given for free, and for Adrian, both a gratuitous gift and a fair trad

Lyra put down her utensils and walked worriedly to the room next door. It was a single-story wooden house, with simple furnishings and only two rooms."I'm sorry to inconvenience you by having you stay in the hall before departure," Sion said, putting down his utensils before leaving the house.The daily routine here was the same as where they came from. According to Mudstone’s calendar, they would set off for the secret realm in the mountain in half a month.Adrian put down his utensils. For over two hundred years, though thirty people went in each year, only three people came out alive. How many treasures similar to the Dragon Token could these three people obtain each time? If it was assumed ten pieces each time, they would number a little over two thousand over the years. If it was five, it would be over a thousand. But regardless of the number, when three people come out, they should have brought back several items with them, so where are these items stored?Adrian smiled. If

Lyra was speechless. She knew Adrian's temperament, but how could he still be so arrogant in the presence of so many people? Wasn't he just asking for trouble?Duo looked toward Lyra. “Will you help him if I make a move?"Lyra thought for a moment. Since she still needed Adrian’s help, and he was the only one in the whole village who would do so, she nodded and said, "If you want to hurt Adrian, you'll have to kill me first."Duo's expression instantly turned gloomy. Behind him, the young people sneered. "Duo, we agreed to teach this outsider a lesson! Are you going to change your mind just because Lyra’s in the way?" Duo turned and shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?!""I’m implying that you like Lyra, so you dare not lay a hand on him," the man continued mockingly.Duo stared angrily at the man, then turned to look at Adrian, apparently ready to vent his anger on him.Adrian smiled and shook his head, drawing the Divine Frost Slayer Blade. There were some t

He just wanted to verify certain things."Damn you, Adrian! I will kill you!" Duo roared angrily.Adrian retrieved the Divine Frost Slayer Blade that had fallen to the side and turned to the unfamiliar middle-aged man, saying casually, "I suggest you arrest him. This person is an unstable factor in the village.""I will consider it, but I also suggest you stop provoking him." "Of course, I won't do it again. I promise," Adrian replied smilingly. He then turned to Lyra and said softly, "Let's go. Accompany me for a stroll, will you?"Lyra nodded, her expression complicated. "I...""Are you out of your mind, Duo?! Do you want to end up in Black Prison?" The companions who had come with Duo grabbed the impulsive young man.‘Black Prison? That must be an interesting place,’ Adrian thought.With a population of a thousand, the scale of Black Prison couldn't be that large. And since the population was so important, it was understandable that whenever Adrian clashed with someone, oth

Hearing Lyra's pleas, Adrian fell silent for a moment. Then, he nodded. "I’ll help if I get the chance."A bright smile appeared on Lyra's face. Her fair and delicate skin contrasted sharply with the crimson Blood River.As night fell, the sounds of monsters around them got louder. The two returned home, and Lyra asked Adrian to keep things a secret. Later in the night, Adrian sat cross-legged on the floor in the living room. He was reflecting on what he had witnessed and heard today as it was a unique experience for him. However, the situation was not entirely chaotic, and within a day, he had discovered some clues. "If this is the situation in Mudstone Village, then it should be the same for Blade's Reach Village and Emberfallen Village. The problem is that I'm not sure if they entered the same secret realm, and if the three factions are in conflict or cooperation.”From the old man, he discovered this place had existed for over two hundred years, possibly even longer. The three

With a nonchalant expression, Adrian got up and walked toward the door. He was genuinely curious about people from the other villages. More importantly, the ones who kidnapped Thalia might not be in Mudstone anymore. They could have headed to the other two villages, and they might have been connected to the two other villages. "You don't understand. We only interact with the other villages once every few years. The last time I saw someone from Blade's Reach was when I was twelve!" Lyra said excitedly, "Also, I heard that there's a young prodigy in Blade's Reach. He's not even twenty, but he's already at level eight."Adrian nodded and followed her outside. On the streets were people of all ages and genders. There were at least a hundred, and the crowd was growing. It seemed like the entire village was curious about people from the other villages.Adrian gazed at the group wearing black robes, similar to those in Mudstone. The robes seemed to be at least two hundred years old in sty

It was just an ordinary cave. In Adrian's lifetime, he had experienced countless mysterious and magical things. Even the most ordinary experiences seemed more interesting than this cave expedition. Lyra held Adrian's hand as they walked into the cave. When they heard the howling wind, Lyra asked, "Listen. Doesn't that sound like the wailing of a monster?" Adrian smiled and replied, "It's just the sound of the wind. There’s no monster here.""Come on! Let's go inside and take a look. This cave is pretty deep. Last time I was here, I didn't dare to walk to the end," Lyra said.The two walked deeper into the cave, and the wind continued to whistle in their ears. The cave was approximately ten meters in length and width. Along their journey, they saw small bats flying through the darkness. After a few minutes, Adrian felt that something was off."I don't know. I walked for over half an hour and still didn't reach the end the last time I came here," Lyra replied.Stopping in his tra

"Where did you run off to, Adrian?" Duo asked upon seeing the pair."Where I go is none of your business," Adrian retorted."Hmph! You don't have to report to me, but the village chief is looking for you," Duo countered."In that case, why are you wasting our time here instead of taking me there?"Teasing this young hothead was one of the few pleasures Adrian had in this boring world.Duo, looking irritated, could only glare at Adrian. Unfortunately for him, he had been ordered not to lay a hand on Adrian."Follow me," Duo growled.As they headed toward the village’s main building, Lyra asked worriedly, "What do you think is going to happen?"Duo was jealous upon hearing Lyra's concern for Adrian. "Hmph! What could possibly happen to him? He's an outsider, and he shouldn't even be in our village!" he said disdainfully. Adrian shook his head, thinking that the matter should be related to Blade's Reach. However, he didn’t know what was about to happen.They passed through the
