I started with a seed, luckily I have probability glasses

Just as Li Chuan and the other person walked to the coordinate location lit by Lin Yaoyao, a crisp voice sounded from beside them.

Cheng Nannan was frightened again by the sudden appearance of Lin Yaoyao, but she didn't dare to blame the person who scared her.

Li Chuan was not scared, because he knew that Lin Yaoyao would hide near the entrance.

"If you're asking that, then I actually found out something interesting. I met a new player, a level nine player who just entered the forbidden land."

Lin Yaoyao widened her eyes.

"Wow! So you made friends with him?"

"..."

Li Chuan rolled his eyes silently.

You shouldn't expect this guy to have normal thinking.

Cheng Nannan, who was standing by, understood what Li Chuan wanted to express.

"In other words, this game is still running normally even though we can't see it?"

Li Chuan nodded.

"That's what I meant!"

Lin Yaoyao blinked in a silly and cute way.

"Is it possible that it won't work?"

Li Chuan didn't know how to say it so that Lin Yaoyao would understand.

Maybe she wouldn't understand no matter what I said.

"Uh……"

Let’s change the subject!

"Did you enter the palace through this small hole before?"

Lin Yaoyao's attention was successfully diverted.

"Yeah, I followed a few powerful players, and one of them entered from here."

"However, apart from this place, there are many narrow gaps in the outer wall. They would definitely be impossible for a giant to pass through, but they are just right for us."

"It's like, it's like."

Li Chuan took over.

“It’s like it was prepared for us players.”

"Bingo, that's what I meant!"

"Come on, I'll take you inside. This palace only looks scary, but it's actually not very dangerous. The only danger is when going up the stairs."

The three of them bent over and passed through a several-meter-long crack in the wall.

It was unknown what material this exceptionally thick exterior wall was made of. Even though it already had many cracks, there was no trace of decay or signs of insect damage.

Walking out of the crack, you will see a fairly large courtyard. The courtyard surrounds the palace, is full of weeds, and is very empty.

"When I first arrived here this morning, there were a lot of giants with big heads and small bodies that couldn't move. They were divided up by the first players who came in."

Li Chuan was a little surprised.

In other words, it's a humanoid monster with only an enlarged head?

"There's such a good thing! If I had known, I would have come in and explored it before doing my daily tasks!"

Lin Yaoyao took Li Chuan and walked along the edge into the archway of the hall.

"It wasn't a particularly good outcome. There were only about a dozen of them, and there were so many players. Not only did we not get much experience points in the end, but we almost got into a fight over the loot."

……

The three of them crossed the spacious courtyard and carefully entered the palace along the edge of the main gate.

"This is the first floor of the palace. I don't know what's at the top, but all the giants here are desperately trying to climb up."

After entering the first floor of the main hall, Li Chuan looked around.

This is an extremely spacious hall. The middle of the hall is regularly covered with ochre-colored pillars that are several meters thick and carved with fish-scale patterns.

On the outside is an unusually large room, some of whose doors and windows are intact, while the walls of some other rooms have collapsed.

Looking into the house through the collapsed wall, there were nothing but walls inside. Perhaps there used to be a lot of oversized furniture, but all traces were erased by the passage of time.

In the vast hall where the edges were barely visible, two large groups of deformed giants were divided into two piles, with hundreds of them in each pile, all clustered at the broken staircases in the northeast and southwest corners of the first floor.

They screamed in surprise and swarmed up the broken stairs.

But the broken end of the stairs was quite high, more than ten meters high, and only occasionally a lucky giant could climb up by stepping on the heads of other giants.

Sure enough, they were scrambling to climb up.

Li Chuan stood beside the pillar and muttered to himself.

"This scene is a bit like the old men and women who receive free eggs at the pharmacy door."

Lin Yaoyao was puzzled.

“Why are there free eggs in the pharmacy?”

……

Difficult to communicate!

Cheng Nannan covered her mouth with her hands, terrified by the horrific scene before her.

"Am I the only one who thinks they're scary?"

Although Li Chuan felt uncomfortable seeing so many terrifying giants, he was mentally prepared after all.

"People are all afraid of creatures that look similar to themselves but have only minor differences. In psychology, this is called the uncanny valley theory. As long as you don't treat them as humans, you will feel much better."

"How do I get up these two stairs?"

Lin Yaoyao greeted the two of them.

"Follow me and climb up the chain hanging from the back of the stairs."

The three of them carefully walked around the giant and came to the bottom of the first step of the stairs in the northeast corner. There were many iron chains more than one meter thick hanging down here.

Li Chuan stood in the shadows and whispered.

"Did you and the other players also learn this way of climbing stairs?"

This location was not too far from the group of giants, so Li Chuan didn't dare to speak too loudly.

Lin Yaoyao smiled complacently.

"Of course! I don't know which part of the palace those players are from. There's a female fighter, a bunch of cyborgs, and a bunch of weird guys."

"They're not weak, and they can use their brains. I learned all this from them."

"Come on, follow me. Be careful on the second floor. The giants on the second floor are not as stupid as the giants on the first floor."

Lin Yaoyao jumped onto the chain first and swam upwards nimbly as if she had no weight.

Li Chuan knew that these were Lin Yaoyao's spiritual plants, brought to her by Bai Heying. The spiritual power of this special plant was enormous, and Li Chuan could not envy it at all.

Fortunately, Li Chuan's agility is also very high, and after adding the leaping ability, he is not much slower than Lin Yaoyao.

Only Cheng Nannan was complaining bitterly. She had just mustered up the courage to climb up the chains when Li Chuan and the other man had already climbed more than ten meters.

The iron chain is very long. After all, it is a staircase for giants to walk on, so you can imagine how huge it is. Only seven or eight steps are broken at the bottom of the stairs, but it is already fifteen or sixteen meters high.

The first platform was about sixty meters from the ground, and Li Chuan and the others didn't have to spend much effort to climb up.

Bow down.

Cheng Nannan hadn't even climbed halfway yet.

"What should I do? Should I wait for her?"

Lin Yaoyao asked a very ruthless question.

Li Chuan nodded.

"Wait, give her a chance. You don't want to keep changing chefs, right?"

Lin Yaoyao tilted her head.

"Brother Chuan, there's something wrong with you."

Li Chuan denied it immediately.

"Really? I just think changing the chef is a hassle. How about you choose chef as your secondary profession?"

Lin Yaoyao shook her head.

"I already have a secondary job, a blue-quality enchanter."

"I just haven't come across any gems that can be used for enchantment. It feels so useless."

While the two were talking, Cheng Nannan finally climbed up panting.

"Yeah, sorry, I'm so slow."

Li Chuan glanced at her.

"No need to apologize. I will wait for you when it's safe, but if there's any danger, we will run away immediately. If you regret it now, it's not too late."

It is not difficult to climb down the chain and return the same way now, so Li Chuan said there is still time.

Cheng Nannan bit her lip.

"I've come this far, I won't give up until I get something."

Li Chuan nodded and continued to climb the stairs with Lin Yaoyao.

……

After climbing the last two-meter-high staircase and reaching the second floor of the Giant Palace, Li Chuan was able to see the entire picture of the second floor of the palace.

The second floor of the palace is similar to the first floor. The outer part is made up of damaged rooms, and the middle is a hall filled with thick ochre pillars. Looking up, you can see that the tops of all the pillars are connected by thick iron chains.

There are also iron chains on the pillars on the first floor, but there are many more purple water bags hanging on the iron chains on the second floor.
