Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

Thousands of people gasped, leaning back tactically: "Phase two is still going on?!"

“The ritual of the god of masks.” Immy watched this scene, her eyes narrowing coldly.

She forced a smile and shouted loudly to the crowd, "You need to sense the energy of the other nine extraordinary holy stone tablets before you can trigger the second stage."

"Huh?!" Everyone was surprised. "There's such a saying?"

But I don't really care. Anyway, I'm going to get out of here, and I'll have to find all ten extraordinary holy stone tablets eventually.

Luo Bai looked up at the loop in the sky: "Five more..."

Above the ruins is a huge circuit. Each time you sense a transcendent holy stone tablet, a portion of it will light up. Currently, four-tenths are lit up. After deducting the divine stone tablets, there are still five missing.

"Five..."

He kept repeating the number five, his inner unease reaching its peak.

...

I'll be taking a break tomorrow and won't be updating again.

If you can't accept the protagonist's defeat, you don't need to read any further; you should warn others in advance.

Chapter 436 Ahhh

...

The [military strength] tier within the ruins.

...

"You need to sense the energy of the remaining nine extraordinary holy stone tablets before you can trigger the second stage."

After Immy finished speaking, the crowd snapped out of their daze and began to move.

"There are only five left."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Some people began studying maps to find possible locations of the sacred stone, while others mobilized and took immediate action.

Some people gave up the search and stayed where they were, staring at the stone pharaoh statue.

This was a huge cake, and the crowd that had dispersed earlier quickly gathered again.

The superconducting wave in the high altitude refocuses.

The explorers were given 24 hours of rest.

"Mask Brother—" Lin Yi shouted to Luo Bai from afar, crying his eyes out, "Wow, are you alright!"

"Oh." Luo Bai gently raised his hand at him, then chuckled, "Still alive."

That wave of [self-destruct switches] scattered many squads; those who survived were considered lucky.

"Luckily, I reacted quickly," Lin Yi said, panting.

"Ah—" followed by Qi Qiankong's howl and a sigh of utter despair, "My exclusive report..."

Do you know who defeated the king?

He looked at Luo Bai and the others with a blank expression.

“Uh—” Luo Bai’s face twisted strangely. “A peerless master, but it’s too dark to see clearly.”

He told a colossal lie.

If word gets out that Yi Lan won, it will cause a lot of trouble later.

She doesn't seem to be very good at handling interpersonal relationships.

"Alright." Qi Qiankong lowered his head in disappointment.

"Mask Bro!" Lin Yi looked at Luo Bai with admiration, following his lead blindly. "What's next?"

"Shall we go explore the wilderness?"

Before Luo Bai could respond, Qi Qiankong glanced around and murmured softly, "Isn't someone missing...?"

"Never mind," Luo Bai politely declined the suggestion. "You guys go ahead."

"I--"

His expression was somewhat awkward.

"Take a break."

This wave of [self-destruct switch] has caused me a lot of damage. The poison spots have become much deeper. Originally, it would take four days for the poison to explode, but now it may only take three days.

It takes half a day to protect yourself from harm from others.

I never expected I'd have to guard against myself.

"I'm not going to shop anymore," Qi Qiankong replied. "If someone else wins the second stage without me seeing it, I'll lose another hundred million."

"There are so many talented people, I want to interview some of them."

The first phase was thrilling but without major incident; the ruins were breached on the very first day of their opening, greatly boosting the explorers' confidence.

Many people breathed a sigh of relief.

“Okay,” Lin Yi said with a complicated expression, yet unable to suppress his adventurous spirit, “I’ll try my luck myself.”

The three of them each had their own ideas.

Lin Yi insisted on scavenging for the stone tablet, while Qi Qiankong, disguised as a reporter, asked each person if there were any witnesses to Wang's last battle.

Luo Bai walked slowly toward a nearby towering rock, its surface mottled, bearing witness to the vicissitudes of time.

Night was falling.

With practiced ease, Yilan began setting up a campfire. She selected a few dry branches and lit them. The chicken wings turned in the firelight, releasing an enticing aroma under the double coating of cumin and honey.

She even has a small tent.

He seems to have a lot of experience with night camping in the forest.

"I'll have one skewer." Luo Bai picked up a skewer of grilled chicken wings without any hesitation.

Yi Lan rolled her eyes at him, but didn't say anything more.

After a while.

The two leaned against the giant rock, eating chicken wings. The firelight shone on their faces, turning them a yellowish hue.

The atmosphere was strangely awkward.

I really want to play on my phone.

Unfortunately, there's no signal.

Luo Bai knew this clever little guy didn't like talking about serious matters when he was eating, so he stammered and asked, "You...you're the kind of person who...eats grapes without spitting out the grape skins?"

“Yes,” Yi Lan replied casually.

"Oh." Luo Bai nodded gently, murmuring in a voice only he could hear, "What a coincidence..."

He turned his head and gazed at her silently.

And she—

They stared intently at the chicken wings, eating the ones in front of them while gazing at the ones still grilling.

It seems he has never thought about that kind of thing.

"You're really good at duels..." Yi Lan finished her skewer, turned it around, and smiled.

"Just now..."

"And KC..."

"They look good together..."

Unlike me... I can't do anything...

The smoke was a bit pungent, so she pulled up her disguise mask to cover her nose.

Luo Bai was taken aback, then threw the wooden stick in his hand into the fire: "You can throw [White Stone]."

After saying that, he pulled up his disinfectant mask.

The air froze for a moment, and Yi Lan turned her head slightly, casting a disdainful glance at her.

"Boom—"

The earth suddenly trembled, and countless people stared wide-eyed in terror.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Luo Bai exclaimed in surprise, "Is it really necessary? I'm just saying one thing to you."

His first thought was that Yi Lan was angry and caused it, since she had shown off her skills before.

"I didn't do it," Yi Lan said calmly, looking completely bewildered.

"Hmm?" Luo Bai's face was filled with doubt.

The earth shook violently, and the predatory plants emitted strange hissing sounds all around, causing birds and beasts to take flight in fright.

"What...what's going on?!"

"What mechanism has been triggered this time?"

Countless people struggled to steady themselves, their faces filled with confusion and fear.

The next instant.
