TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 408: The impaled person

"Do any of you manage to enter the barrier?" Liu Yang asked. He was touching the barrier, but his finger was sinking as if he were entering the barrier.

"No"

"No"

"No"

Everyone else said no, they tried to touch the barrier, but it looked like some kind of power repelling them. Liu Yang was the only one who could enter the barrier, but why?

"What is your level?" Liu Yang asked. He realized that everyone in the group was weaker than he was, so Liu Yang figured that was why they couldn't get in the barrier.

"375"

"238"

"301"

"353"

The twenty members of the group responded.

As expected, none of them were at level 400 like Liu Yang.

Its previous level was 241, but after killing millions of giant worms in that pool and many stone golems. Liu Yang managed to reach level 400.

His Continuous Growth skill also helped because Liu Yang leveled up to level 5. The amount of experience he gained from doing nothing was not much, but over time, it accumulated a lot of experience and he gained a level every five days.

That speed was extremely fast.

"I see ... I think the only way to get out of here is to go inside the wooden hut and solve the mystery." Liu Yang commented. He didn't know if the exit would really stop after he entered the barrier, so he could only try.

"Allston, why can you get into the barrier and the rest of us can't?" Gargo asked. He was the closest person to Liu Yang because he was the first person that Li Yang saved inside the maze.

"It is because I am at level 400. I am the only one who is at level 400 among all of us here" Liu Yang replied.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!" These words shocked everyone, but they thought for a while and realized it was true.

Except for Liu Yang, the rest of the members were all below level 400. So it made sense for him to be able to enter the barrier.

"But isn't that a little dangerous? We don't even know what's inside the barrier." Gargo commented.

"This is dangerous, but do any of you have any better ideas?" Liu Yang asked.

The maze was explored, but nothing was found. Thus, they could only move on and enter the barrier. But only Liu Yang can do that.

"..." No one commented because none of them had any idea what to do.

"Since no one has any idea, I will go ahead with the plan and enter the barrier. You can stay out here waiting, a door can open when I enter the barrier" Liu Yang speculated. He just commented to give these people hope.

"..." Nobody said anything because they didn't need to. They could only trust Liu Yang to do that.

Besides, they were all still very weak after so many years without eating. They haven't recovered their energy yet.

"Take this. That equates to a year of food for each one. "Liu Yang gave six colored potions to each of them.

"You better protect yourself within the barriers, I will not be able to save you if any stone golem attacks you" He continued.

"Allston, thanks" The group knelt and thanked Liu Yang.

Each of them placed the barrier around them, as everyone in the place was unknown and no one trusted anyone.

These people didn't cause any problems because Liu Yang was with them, but since he would be absent, some of them can cause problems.

Liu Yang could also put them inside the housing ring, but that is something he would not do. He does not want to show his wealth to unknown people.

So he always took things out of his leather bags.

After everyone was protected, Liu Yang touched the barrier and his body was absorbed inside.

At the same moment, something happened.

The barrier shone brightly and completely covered the place before disappearing.

The wooden hut, the tree, and Liu Yang disappeared along with the barrier.

There, a door appeared.

(A exit!!!!) Everyone had that thought. Without thinking twice, everyone deactivated the barriers and ran towards the door.

The door was not difficult to open, they just needed to join forces to pull the door.

Great darkness appeared on the other side and they could only enter. There was no other choice.

So, everyone entered the dark place after hesitating a little.

While the group was trying to leave the new location ...

Liu Yang was elsewhere ...

"What is this place?" Liu Yang looked around and saw that it looked like some kind of large room made of stone.

In front of him was a small wooden hut with a tree protruding from the roof.

"Did I get teleported somewhere after entering the barrier?" Liu Yang asked himself. He didn't know where he was, he just knew it was another place.

"It seems that my only choice is to enter the hut ..." He walked and arrived in front of the wooden door.

"Huh ???"

"The air in this place is much more pure and cool than normal. It feels like I'm in a forest full of trees" Liu Yang took a deep breath to feel the air.

creak...

Liu Yang turned the door handle and the door was opened without a problem.

When the door was opened, a strong light appeared. A soft, cool wind blew in his direction.

"I feel like I'm in a field of grass with an icy wind blowing over my face" He commented on what just happened.

Looking inside, Liu Yang saw that the cabin had only one room, the living room. There were no stairs, doors, or anything.

In the middle of the room was a large tree with a thick trunk that it took several people holding hands to get around.

creak...

When passing through the door, it was closed automatically. Liu Yang was trapped inside the hut.

The interior was lit with low, relaxing lights.

"Living in a place like this must be very good." he commented.

"It seems that the only clue is that tree."

Walking to the tree, Liu Yang saw nothing special or different. He walked around the tree to see if there was anything different.

His steps were slow because he was taking the opportunity to look at every detail of the tree.

When he almost finished turning around, he was shocked by what appeared.

"!!!!!!"

A person. Liu Yang saw a person impaled by two thick branches of the tree.

The two branches were impaling both shoulders of the person with the eyes closed.

When that person felt Liu Yang's gaze, it slowly opened its eyes.
