Lia suggested, holding her greatsword, looking eager to try.

"Alright, Lia, stop fooling around. I'll ask Lady Amber."

Gelin stopped Lia and contacted Amber via her terminal. About two and a half minutes later, Luo Chen's terminal rang, and everyone looked at him with puzzled expressions.

Luo Chen answered the call and heard a female voice coming from the earpiece.

"Luo Chen, I am Amber, the bishop's secretary."

"Lord Amber, may I ask what brings you here?"

Luo Chen sensed something was wrong and began to wonder why Amber had hit him.

"I am informing you on behalf of His Excellency the Bishop that you are free to use your Divine Key during this mission. And we will not take it back."

"why?"

Luo Chen was first surprised, then curious as to why Otto didn't want the Jizo Soul.

"His Holiness has already contacted Lady Theresa. Only you can use your Divine Key, so it will not be taken back. With that said, goodbye."

Amber abruptly ended the conversation, leaving Luo Chen looking bewildered and the others curious.

"Little Chen, what was Lord Amber saying to you just now?"

"nothing."

While responding to Chen Xuan, Luo Chen transformed the Jizo Mitsu Soul into a glove, activated Honkai energy, pressed it against the door, and closed his eyes.

"What are you doing!"

Just as the staff were about to step forward to stop them, they were stopped by Gelin.

“Let him go; it’s His Excellency the Bishop’s order.”

Gelin hung up the terminal and looked at Luo Chen's outstretched hand with a complicated expression.

"This kid actually has a Divine Key."

"what!"

Everyone present was shocked, looking at the gloves on Luo Chen's hands, as if they understood something.

"Vice Captain, what Xiao Chen has in his hand..."

“That’s right.” Golin nodded. “I just got the news from Lady Amber. The twelfth Divine Key, Jizo-michi-no-Mitama.”

Everyone gasped as they looked at Luo Chen. No one had expected that a student of St. Freya would actually possess a Divine Key.

"All right."

After using the power of Jizo's Soul to destroy the electronic information inside the door, Luo Chen nodded to everyone and kicked the door, but it didn't budge.

"Cough cough."

Luo Chen coughed awkwardly and complained, "This door is indeed a bit too hard."

"Stop messing around." Gelin lightly tapped his head, then turned to the staff: "Is there any way to open the door?"

"Well, we should probably push this aside. After all, isn't that how it's written in Chinese martial arts novels?" The staff member asked tentatively, his eyes darting around.

"Okay." Gelin sighed, somewhat speechless.

"Lia, you go and give it a try."

"Good Le!"

Lia planted the greatsword in the ground, pressed her hands against the door and squeezed hard. She felt the door slowly moving, so she increased the pressure on her hands.

"Lia is so strong!"

Hearing Luo Chen's exclamation, Chen Xuan said with a grin, "Lia's strength is the greatest in headquarters, you know. Even Lady Durandal has to use her full strength to compete with her."

"If she throws a punch, she should be able to send me flying."

"Hey Xiao Chen, are you really that frail?"

As Liya pushed open the door, she couldn't help but tease Luo Chen, making everyone present laugh.

Seeing that Lia had already pushed the door open, Gorlin's smile faded, and she looked at everyone with a serious expression, beginning to instruct: "Alright, we're about to enter this ruin. I won't say much else, just one thing: protect yourselves."

"Undying Blade Second Squad, listen up! Mission begins now!"

Chapter 30 Sea of ​​Flowers

Luo Chen walked in the middle of the group and couldn't help but complain about the darkness around him: "This godforsaken place, they can't even put a lamp on."

"So many years have passed, even if there were lights, they wouldn't be turned on."

Chen Xuan chimed in, looking at the endless passage, and nudged Chen Jin with her elbow: "Sis, how much longer do you think we have to walk?"

"I don't know." Chen Jin observed the walls on both sides, looked at the metal wall panels, and shook his head.

"The corridor here is so long."

Luo Chen casually knocked on the wall and paused when he heard an echo coming from inside.

"Sister Gelin, this seems to be hollow."

"Yeah."

Gloria walked over, tapped the wall, and said, "It's definitely hollow. See if there's anything around that can open it."

"okay."

As Luo Chen spoke, he drew his knife, making a gesture as if to slash at the target.

"Hey, what are you doing! I didn't tell you to split it open!"

Gelin hurriedly stopped Luo Chen, looking at him with annoyance.

"I thought I'd stir things up since the atmosphere is so tense."

"You, forget it." Gelin rolled her eyes at him, punched Luo Chen, and said, "You're the one who messes things up."

"hey-hey."

Luo Chen scratched his head and, under Ge Lin's gaze, began to seriously search for the mechanism.

"Vice Captain, there's nothing here."

"Me too."

"Strange?" Gelin pondered, then sighed and looked at Luo Chen: "Never mind, Xiao Chen, you cut it open. Everyone, step back."

"Hey, no, I was just saying!" Luo Chen said with a wry smile, "Sister Gelin, aren't you afraid I'll run into some danger?"

"Can't you use invisibility to escape?"

"Ok."

Luo Chen drew his sword again, and after confirming that the others had retreated, he exerted force and slashed the wall with his sword, which then jammed.

"Ahem, that was unexpected. I'll try again."

Luo Chen sheathed his sword, took out the Jizo Mitsu Soul, wrapped it with Honkai energy, and slashed it out with force.

A gash was cleaved in the metal wall, and Luo Chen followed up with a few more cuts, only stopping after creating a hole.

"Done, but it's so dark inside!"

Luo Chen looked inside, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. He began to wonder what was hidden inside.

"Vice Captain, what do we do now?"

"There's no other way. Zhi, Liya, and I will go into this cave and take a look. Chen Jin, keep an eye on your sister and Xiao Chen, and then follow this passage."

Gelin waved to the others and stepped into the cave first.

"Let's go too."

After Gelin and her group left first, Chen Jin told the remaining two to walk ahead and clear the way.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Luo Chen suddenly felt a darkness before his eyes. When his vision cleared again, he was shocked to find himself in another location.

"Holy crap! Where am I?"

Luo Chen looked around and, realizing he was all alone, couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

"anyone there?"

……

"Hmm, as expected, there isn't one..."

Luo Chen lowered his head listlessly, and the next moment, a door suddenly appeared in front of him, startling him so much that he jumped up on the spot.

Why make it so scary!

Luo Chen looked at the door and gently touched it with his hand, but the door did not change at all.

"How did this thing even come about?" Luo Chen scratched his head, revealing a heroic expression. "Well, it seems like this is the only way out now. Let's take a gamble and maybe we'll turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!"

Luo Chen grabbed the doorknob, turned it, and went straight in. He was puzzled to find a sea of ​​flowers behind the door.

"What the heck?"

Luo Chen glanced at the darkness behind him and walked into the sea of ​​flowers without looking back.
