A bed that traverses countless worlds

Before Su Yao could finish speaking, the heavy stone door slammed shut, locking the three of them inside the room.

A thick fog suddenly billowed out, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face. The damp and cold air enveloped them tightly, sending chills down their spines.

"Holy crap, what's going on?" Kong Yang's voice trembled slightly.

"Be careful, there's a trap here." Lin Yuhao lay on the bed, the bed trembling slightly, as if sensing the danger around him.

The clicking of machinery came from all directions, like the whisper of death, foreshadowing the approaching danger.

“This is not just a mechanism…” Lin Yuhao frowned, keenly sensing a trace of human intervention. The way the mechanism was triggered seemed to have been tampered with.

In the thick fog, a short figure smiled sinisterly.

Hu the Dwarf, a master of mechanical arts, was hiding in the shadows, fiddling with the parts in his hands.

"Hehe, let me show you what I'm capable of! You think you can steal my thunder? No way!" He had been trying to curry favor with Captain Zhou, but Lin Yuhao had ruined the whole thing. Now, with both old and new grudges surging in his heart, he decided to give Lin Yuhao a good "welcome."

He secretly sabotaged several key control devices, making the already deadly trap even more unpredictable.

"Wait, this rhythm is wrong..." Lin Yuhao suddenly spoke up.

He sensed that the way these traps were triggered was completely different from what he had encountered before; rather, it felt like they were being deliberately guided.

"Someone is deliberately leading us to a more dangerous place!" He suddenly swerved the bed, making a sharp turn to narrowly avoid a boulder falling from above.

"Boom!" The boulder crashed to the ground with a deafening roar, sending debris flying everywhere.

If Lin Yuhao hadn't reacted quickly, the three of them would probably have been crushed into mincemeat.

"That was close! Yuhao, your bed is amazing!" Kong Yang exclaimed, still shaken.

A hint of surprise flashed in Su Yao's eyes. She hadn't expected Lin Yuhao to be able to dodge the fatal attack so precisely.

Just then, an aged voice rang out from the thick fog: "Young man, not bad. However, the real test has only just begun..." The figure of the white-bearded old man slowly emerged, leaning on a strange staff.

He looked at Lin Yuhao, his eyes flashing with an unfathomable light.

"A test? What do you mean?" Lin Yuhao frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

The white-bearded old man smiled mysteriously, slammed his staff on the ground, and the ground began to tremble...

"The road ahead won't be so easy..."

The ground shook violently, and cracks appeared in the once smooth surface. Lava gushed out from the cracks, and the scorching heat baked the faces of the three people.

"Wow! You're playing this high?!" Kong Yang exclaimed, instinctively hugging Su Yao.

Su Yao blushed and glared at him fiercely, but she didn't push him away.

Logically, at this point everyone should be panicking and running around trying to find a way to survive.

But Lin Yuhao lay calmly on the bed, his eyes closed, as if he were detached from the situation.

"Yu Hao, what are you doing? The world is going to end, and you're still meditating here?" Kong Yang stamped his feet anxiously.

"Don't make a sound, I'm connecting." Lin Yuhao didn't even lift his eyelids.

He is using the special abilities of the system bed to resonate with the energy fluctuations of the maze, trying to find the patterns in these traps.

The system bed frantically absorbed the surrounding energy, its body emitting a faint glow, and strings of data flashed through Lin Yuhao's mind.

"Connect? Connect to what? Wi-Fi?" Kong Yang looked bewildered.

Although Su Yao also had some doubts, she still chose to believe Lin Yuhao, after all, he had saved her from danger several times before.

Suddenly, Lin Yuhao opened his eyes, a bright light flashing in them.

"Got it! I know how to get there!" He pointed to the flickering runes on the wall. "The changes in these runes follow a pattern. As long as you follow the pattern, you can avoid all the traps."

Lin Yuhao maneuvered the bed, nimbly weaving through the traps, dodging lava, falling rocks, and poisoned arrows one by one.

Kong Yang and Su Yao followed closely behind him, as if they were playing a thrilling parkour game.

Hu the Short, who was hiding in the shadows, was so shocked by what he saw that his jaw almost dropped.

"How is this possible? How does he know the pattern of the trap?" He himself set the trap, and he doesn't even understand it. How did Lin Yuhao manage to do it?

Enraged, Hu the Dwarf decided to take a risk. He sneaked up on Lin Yuhao, intending to destroy his bed.

But before he could get close, he accidentally triggered a trap. A burst of electricity struck him with a "sizzle," and Hu Aizi convulsed, collapsing to the ground foaming at the mouth, looking just like a mouse that had been electrocuted.

Lin Yuhao and his two companions successfully passed through the trap area and arrived at a huge bronze door.

The white-bearded old man had been waiting there for some time now. He looked at Lin Yuhao with admiration in his eyes.

"Young man, you're quite good, even smarter than I imagined."

Lin Yuhao smiled faintly: "So-so, third in the world."

The white-bearded old man stroked his beard and pointed to the bronze door, saying, "Behind this door is what you are looking for."

Just as Lin Yuhao was about to open the door, Su Yao suddenly grabbed his sleeve...

Su Yao's fingers gently brushed across Lin Yuhao's back, and the electric-like sensation made Lin Yuhao shudder.

"Ahem, Yao, we're on the run, so let's be mindful of our behavior," Lin Yuhao teased, trying to sound calm, though his heart was pounding like a deer.

Su Yao blushed and glared at him reproachfully, but she didn't pull her hand back.

Kong Yang coughed lightly from the side and said, "Hey you two, is this the time to show off your love? Can't you see the lava is almost scorching the soles of your shoes?"

Just as the three were about to reach the room's exit, the white-bearded old man appeared out of nowhere and blocked their way.

“Young man, you are very clever, but intelligence alone is not enough. You also need to prove your strength.” As soon as the old man finished speaking, a group of magical creatures shimmering with an eerie light appeared out of thin air. They looked like miniature goblins, wielding small wooden sticks and emitting sharp cries as they pounced on Lin Yuhao.

"Damn, old man, you're serious!" Kong Yang exclaimed, hiding behind Su Yao.

"Yuhao, it's up to you now!" Su Yao's beautiful eyes shone with anticipation; she had complete confidence in Lin Yuhao.

"That's it?" Lin Yuhao curled his lip in disdain. "My bed is no joke!" With a thought, an energy shield appeared on the surface of the bed, blocking all the mini goblin attacks.

"Little gadgets, with this little bit of attack power, it's not even enough to tickle me!" Lin Yuhao manipulated the bed, and suddenly a mechanical arm extended from the head of the bed, knocking these mini goblins away one by one like whack-a-mole.

"Anything else? Old man, your test is too weak!" Lin Yuhao looked at the white-bearded old man provocatively.

A hint of surprise flashed in the white-bearded old man's eyes, then he burst into laughter.

"Young man, you have guts! But the real test is just beginning!" He raised his staff, and a dazzling light enveloped the entire room...

As the light faded, a colossal figure appeared in the center of the room. It stood tens of meters tall, its body covered in hard scales, and its pair of scarlet eyes gleamed with a fierce light.

"What...what is this thing?!" Kong Yang was so frightened that his legs went weak.

"The Labyrinth Guardian—the Titan Beast." The white-bearded old man's voice carried a hint of excitement. "Young man, defeat it, and you will gain the qualification to enter the next level."

Lin Yuhao looked at the enormous thing in front of him, a confident smile appearing on his lips.

"Titan behemoth? Perfect, I'll use you to test my new skill!" He took a deep breath and slowly said, "System, activate—Invincible Wind and Fire Wheel Mode!"

The bed suddenly began to spin rapidly, emitting a piercing whistling sound, and the entire room shook...

"Wait a minute," Su Yao suddenly spoke up, "your invincible whirlwind... won't it throw us off when it spins?"
