My game crossing system

Because the magician was still primarily responsible for the current situation, Angelica wanted to leave a good impression on her teammates through this incident, so she specifically emphasized what had just happened.

The time Qiu and Angelica had been away was very short, and everyone in the hotel knew that Angelica's words were true. Sean and the others, who had originally had a negative impression of the magician forces, felt much better.

As for the two bottles of high-level potions, Angelica hadn't explained them earlier. But Angelica knew they were reserved specifically for her by the teacher. Furthermore, the quantities were uneven, making it difficult to distribute them. And Angelica had no intention of keeping them all to herself.

If any teammate was poisoned or in other dangerous conditions, Angelica would definitely take out these potions to help him heal.

After the main preparations were completed, everyone replenished some routine supplies with Boss Jenny and set off again.

Because the Magic Research Institute had been abandoned for a long time and was located in a remote area, even Angelica, a semi-local who had lived there for nearly a decade, didn't know its exact location. But Cynthia had already considered this, and the information she provided included detailed directions. Angelica, a semi-local herself, was familiar with most of the surrounding area, and with a little deliberation, she pinpointed the exact location.

Although most of the journey was slowed down by waiting for Angelica to check the information, the final part of the blank area, checking the buildings, also took a long time.

By the time we arrived at the entrance of the Magic Research Institute, more than an hour had passed without us noticing.

"Come on, finish it early and go back early, otherwise you won't be able to have a hot dinner."

Angelica looked at the sun already hanging low in the sky and spoke encouragingly.

After Angelica finished speaking, she asked Sean to push open the door of the Magic Research Institute.

As a former magic research institute, perhaps to facilitate concealed research, the building wasn't particularly tall, nor was it hidden underground. Angelica's reading of the records indicated that the institute relied on a small invisible barrier, combined with an illusion array, as a means of concealment.

Although the magic circle was dismantled and recycled after the institute was abandoned, its location was deliberately chosen for concealment when it was first built.

Therefore, Angelica tried to go up to the sky briefly to check the situation, but she could not find the location of the building.

Looking at the various footprints left at the entrance of the institute, which had not been covered up due to the lack of snow today, everyone's hearts tightened. They estimated that Kaidra had sent a large number of troops and transported a lot of supplies.

Because the research institute had been occupied by the spider clan for a long time, as soon as they entered the door, they looked at the space around them, which was filled with spider webs of various sizes.

Fortunately, the path they were traveling on wasn't covered in spider webs. Otherwise, they would have been in a lot of trouble.

However, by this point, Cynthia had left little useful information for everyone. Because the research institute wasn't very large, the magician lacked internal schematics. The only information she left was somewhat useful, but it wasn't very useful. Everyone just knew that the current queen spider was called Lalan.

"I thought this place had been abandoned for a long time, and creatures like spiders prefer dark environments."

"I thought it would be dark."

"It seems that these monsters from the Kaidra level have restored all the lights in the research institute in order to transport supplies."

Angelica looked at the wall in front of the passage that was emitting flames, and couldn't help but speak excitedly to everyone.

"Angelica, where to go next?"

Sean, at the front of the group, reached the illuminated area at the far end, where the path to the entrance split. Sean scanned the remaining traces on the ground, finding orc footprints on both sides. Finding no other useful clues, Sean turned to ask Angelica, the commander behind him.

"To prevent the spiders from resurfacing, we'd better do a thorough cleanup."

"Ah."

"Didn't Brother Qiuqiu say before that men go left and women go right? So, let's go on the right."

Before Angelica finished speaking, Sean took a step forward with his left foot. When Angelica finished speaking, Sean could only use his right foot to turn his whole body to the right side of the road.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"I'll try too."

Charlotte, who was next to Sean, watched his movements and couldn't help but become interested and tried it.

"Charlotte, stop playing."

"We have already arrived inside the institute."

"I didn't encounter any monsters before, but it's hard to say what's going on inside now."

Angelica, who had a headache, spoke up to stop Charlotte from playing.

When everyone stepped over the stones of building materials that had fallen on the ground on the right and turned left, they saw a small room with a visible end.

"Comerina, please use your little lighting device."

With the faint light of the fire, everyone could see the end of the room in front of them, but the vision on both sides was limited, and they didn't know if there were other roads.

However, there was no light in the room, so Angelica guessed that it might be a place to store supplies.

But just in case, Angelica still went to Comerina and asked her for a lighting device. After all, spiders prefer dark environments, and there might be hidden normal paths on both sides of this blind spot.

"Charlotte, go ahead carefully and check the situation inside."

When Angelica saw Comerina light up the device, she asked Charlotte, who had blocking skills, to go in and take a look.

"Huh~"

"There's a strong stench in here."

"Not only is there no other path in this room, there are no monsters either."

Soon, Charlotte came out with a look of disgust on her face. As soon as she left the room, she started yelling. Apparently, the closed atmosphere in the room made Charlotte hold her breath as soon as she entered.

Charlotte's coming and going also brought some of the smell from inside the room. Sean and the others who smelled it quickly retreated.

Soon, everyone fled the room and came to the original fork in the road.

This time, without further ado, he walked directly to the other end of the room.

When everyone felt the cold wind blowing from the front, they all felt that the air was much fresher.

"I was so stupid before. There was no wind in the passage. It was obviously a sealed little room."

Angelica, who had reacted at this time, couldn't help but say to everyone in annoyance.

Seeing Angelica make a rare mistake, everyone's mood improved a lot.

"Be careful, there's movement ahead."

Not long after he recovered his composure, Sean spoke up to remind the people behind him.

Soon, everyone saw several large spiders moving back and forth inside the small, unobstructed room in front of them.

Although the spiders were constantly moving, the group observed that they were always facing the group. Apparently, they had sensed their approach through other means.

"Spiders are a species that doesn't have very good eyesight."

"Their disorderly movements might be an attempt to avoid our long-range attacks."
