Chapter 1441: Chapter 1442

(Wait for modification) The fleeing player was initially using a prop to move between floors, but unexpectedly stepped onto Shelter 101. This type of metal prop from the game was impenetrable to him. Seeing Xu Huo nearby, aiming a crossbow arrow at him!

The arrow shot from the crossbow wasn’t a solid one, but a semi-transparent ice bolt, which pierced the wall and quickly melted!

"I’m not looking for you." Xu Huo stated his position. However, due to this momentary delay, the chasing player had already descended from the upper floor, but upon just showing a pair of feet, he was struck by a strange force, directly carving a deep groove across the ceiling, stopping only when he hit the wall.

The next second, two people and a stone lion landed on the same level as Xu Huo and the others.

"Da Mao, go!" Yan Jiayu commanded the stone lion to pounce while he took out a muscle doll sticker, pasted it on his face, and instantly increased his speed dramatically. Like an uncapturable projectile, he slammed into the person by the wall!

Evidently, that player didn’t take her reckless combat style seriously; with a pat on his shoulder, a blue arc of light unfolded before him. With the light arc shielding him, he didn’t even spare Yan Jiayu a glance but focused instead on the stone lion circling nearby.

However, just as he was about to free his hands to deal with the stone lion, Yan Jiayu, the living bomb, struck him — she might have some unseen defense props on her, but when she hit the light arc, she directly knocked this player through the wall, causing it to crack!

"What!" The opponent couldn’t hide his surprise, and was then slammed against the outermost wall of the building, bouncing back from a barrier on the wall.

As the force-receiving party, Yan Jiayu wasn’t as disheveled as he was. She landed steadily in the middle of the room, swinging the Demon-Subduing Pestle, raining blows!

With several "bang bang bang" sounds, a shield prop was cracked, prompting the player to quickly evade. Utilizing his characteristic, he briefly restricted Yan Jiayu’s speed before bolting towards Xu Huo! fre(e)webnove.l.c.om

His real target was the government player who hadn’t escaped yet, but no sooner had he made it halfway when a cold gleam swept over from the side!

The pursuing player quickly sidestepped to dodge, and as he lifted his hand, dozens of cowhair needles shot out from his sleeve.

Unable to use the air barrier temporarily, Xu Huo simply placed and retracted Shelter 101 in front, simultaneously using "Extreme Fatigue" and "Progress Bar Disappearance" as he attacked.

The player immediately felt the prop effect cast upon him, and with a press at his sleeve, his clothes bristled like scales before smoothing down again. With the colors of his attire changing once and returning to normal, there was no fatigue visible on his face!

Yan Jiayu and the stone lion caught up, with the lazy Da Mao receiving a smack on the rear, venting all rage onto the pursuing player, causing him to retreat under the onslaught of bites and tears.

"The vase’s effect!" The pursuing player threw a mat to the ground, causing Da Mao to slip one paw onto it.

However, this was of little use, as the stone lion, embodying violence, simply dug a hole in the ground. Being unable to detach from the mat was inconsequential; it could run with the floorboard attached.

After the applause, Xu Huo and those noble girls slowly descended to the ground, after which the other guests demanded a second magic trick.

"The second trick is space-time traversal," Xu Huo walked to the front and said to the King, "However, performing this magic requires permission from the King and Queen to freely traverse the castle. Without that, the expected effects can’t be achieved. For safety, the King can send a guard to accompany me."

"Doing this is disrespectful to a craftsman from afar." The Queen interjected.

"The Queen is right," the King nodded in agreement, then told Xu Huo, "I allow you to enter and exit anywhere except the Rose Garden, but how are you going to demonstrate space-time traversal?"

"I originally intended to invite a guest to accompany me, but considering that space-time traversal cannot set a destination, randomly taking someone through the castle wouldn’t be courteous... Would the King be willing to personally experience space-time traversal?"

The guests quieted down, not expecting him to invite the King.

"Hahaha!" The King laughed heartily, "Lady Liya and the Queen specially held this banquet for my enjoyment, how could I not indulge? Mr. Sunflower One, you won’t lead me into that mysterious land from my dreams, will you?"

Xu Huo smiled, "Perhaps Your Highness is destined for that mysterious land?"

"Such a magical thing as space-time traversal, I also want to try it. Brother King, why not take me along?" A man of similar age and appearance to the King stepped forward and introduced himself, "I am the King’s cousin, Duke Mik. Your space-time traversal can’t possibly only take one person, can it?"

Xu Huo smiled silently, and when the King nodded, he said to the two, "There may be slight dizziness during the process, so please don’t panic."

The spiritual world had been released in advance; as he reached forward to grasp the doorknob, a door appeared before the three of them.

After opening the door, Xu Huo invited the King and Duke to proceed.

People tend to hesitate when facing the unknown, but soon the Duke stepped ahead to block the King’s path, entering the door first.

Behind the door was a lounge; Xu Huo briefly checked the contents of the room before releasing the pair from the illusion.

Upon viewing the room’s setup, both were astonished. The Duke even went to push against the wall and opened the lounge door to confirm that what they saw was real.

"Truly a miraculous technique." The Duke exclaimed, "I’ve never seen such a magic trick before!"

"However, this lounge is just beside the banquet hall, the journey isn’t long, so it’s easy for you to bring us here. Thinking of it that way, it’s not so baffling."

It was evident that the Duke had a strong desire to explore, so Xu Huo led them to the King’s reception room, providing a mental "film" for them while seamlessly moving to the adjacent study.

Unfortunately, there wasn’t a single prop in this study, including the Code of Laws.

Upstairs was the King’s bedroom; as he scanned the room, his gaze lingered on a hair comb inlaid with blue gemstones resting on the bedside table. Picking it up, he saw:

[Congratulations to Player Passerby A for finding a Rank-C Ownerless Item.]

[Willingly Asleep: This is a comb that can soothe the spirit. Using it to brush one’s hair quickly dispels all negative emotions, facilitating entry into a comfortable, pleasant sleep environment.]

[It’s a relaxing prop, sometimes transforming into a handy weapon; its previous owner used it to scrape off all of her husband’s skin, thus when the holder is filled with hatred toward someone, it turns into a weapon to aid in an attack.]

Xu Huo placed the comb back and proceeded to open the closet.

A distinctive spatial ray in the corner caught his attention; he opened the lower-most box in the wardrobe, retrieving a pink feather pen from inside.
