Chapter 82: Deep into the Second Floor of the Ruins

Chapter 82: Deep into the Second Floor of the Ruins

As soon as Li Yueran finished speaking, Lin Yu keenly sensed a completely different atmosphere in the basement. This atmosphere was full of danger, as if silently reminding them that a more severe test was waiting for them ahead.

"We have to be careful." Lin Yu whispered, tightening the staff in his hand and ready for battle.

Su Yao also held the dagger tightly, her eyes full of determination, as if to say that no matter what was waiting for them ahead, she would not retreat.

"Keep moving forward." Li Yueran said decisively. She walked in front and led the two of them carefully through the entrance of the basement and came to the passage on the second floor.

The passage on the second floor was narrower and darker than the first floor. The walls were covered with dense runes, which emitted a faint magical light, illuminating the passage, but also making people feel oppressive.

"The runes here seem to be more complicated than those on the first floor." Su Yao whispered. She tapped the wall lightly with her dagger, trying to decipher the meaning of the runes.

"It may be the magic of the guardian of the ruins." Li Yueran said, "Only by unlocking these runes can we move forward."

Lin Yu took out a piece of paper and began to draw the rune pattern on it. He had an amazing memory and could remember the complex pattern almost at a glance.

"This..." Li Yueran muttered to herself, "This seems to be some kind of ancient writing. I have never seen it before."

"Maybe this is the language of the guardian of the ruins." Su Yao said, "We need to find a way to translate it."

They continued forward and came to a huge stone gate, which was engraved with complex runes and exuded a strong magical aura.

"This door should be the mechanism set up by the guardian of the ruins." Li Yueran said, "We need to find the location of the mechanism."

Lin Yu observed the stone gate carefully and found that the runes on the stone gate seemed to be different from the runes on the wall.

"Here!" Lin Yu pointed to a rune on the stone door and said, "This rune is connected to the rune on the wall. It should be the location of the mechanism."

Su Yao and Li Yueran stepped forward and began to operate the runes according to Lin Yu's instructions.

"One, two, three..." Su Yao said, "Solve!"

As she chanted the spell, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a huge stone chamber.

The stone chamber was full of dust, and it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time. In the center of the stone chamber was an altar, on which was placed an ancient box.

"This..." Li Yueran said to himself, "This should be the treasure left by the guardian of the ruins."

Lin Yu walked forward and looked at the box carefully. He found that the runes on the box were almost identical to those on the wall.

"This..." Lin Yu said, "This should be the way to open the box."

He followed the instructions of the rune and carefully opened the box. Inside the box was an ancient book.

"This..." Su Yao exclaimed in surprise, "This is a magic book!"

Li Yueran walked forward, picked up the magic book, and read the contents of the book carefully.

"This..." Li Yueran said, "This is a book about magic circles. It can help us improve our magic skills."

Su Yao and Lin Yu also picked up the magic book and began to learn the contents of the book.

They know that this is just the beginning of their adventure and there are more challenges waiting for them ahead.

In the following days, they continued to explore the ruins, solving puzzles and obtaining treasures.

They encountered various dangerous magical creatures, and also met some people who helped them.

They experienced life and death tests and also gained deep friendship.

They gradually realized that the world was far more complicated than they had imagined, and that they needed to work harder to gain a foothold in this world.

Finally, they found the exit of the ruins and returned to the real world.

They know that their adventure is not over yet and they will continue to explore the world and pursue their dreams.
