As for face, you get used to it after losing it over and over again.
Amid the merciless laughter of the Sea King, Lin Yan squatted on the ground and silently counted the energy stones. As the Sea King watched, he suddenly stopped laughing.
He makes so much money, so what if he loses face? If losing face is so valuable, he won't mind losing face.
"Um..." Aquaman said in a flattering tone, "Can others use this prop of yours?"
Aquaman was really envious, he also wanted to experience the feeling of robbing money in the Soul Locking Tower with a pair of chopsticks. Yes, in his opinion, Lin Xi's behavior was robbery, and she was robbing in front of the owner so arrogantly that the owner couldn't even call the police.
Lin Yan glanced at Neptune and said, "Are you going to move the energy stone too?"
Hai Wang thought Lin Yan misunderstood that he wanted to steal the energy stone. Although he really wanted to, if Lin Yan was not his colleague, he would definitely do it. But since Lin Yan was his colleague, he couldn't do it: "No, I just want to experience the feeling of being a grandfather. By the way... If possible, I want to change to a more powerful prop."
Lin Yan was surprised: "Can the props be exchanged?"
Aquaman: "Of course you can. Although Soul Locking Tower stipulates that one person can only take one item out, it does not stipulate that once the item is selected, it cannot be changed."
Lin Yan: "What props do you want to change?"
The Sea King did not answer directly, but continued to ask: "How powerful is your tool? Can it reach the sixth floor?"
Lin Yan: "This is my first time in the Soul Locking Tower, and you're asking me?"
Aquaman: “…”
Lin Yan: "You want to go to the sixth floor to get the props?"
Aquaman: "The higher the floor, the more powerful the items. If I have the chance, I will definitely take the most powerful ones."
Lin Xi thought for a moment, then peeled off the sticker on herself and handed it to Neptune.
Aquaman took the sticker in surprise: "Can I use your prop too?"
Lin Yan shook her head: "I don't know, but you can try."
Aquaman: “…”
Can this be tried casually? He is going to the sixth floor, what if he dies after trying it
Hai Wang was secretly criticizing Lin Yan's madness, when Chen Chu suddenly raised his hand and took the initiative to help Hai Wang put on the old man sticker. Then, in the other's surprised look, he patted Hai Wang's shoulder encouragingly: "Go ahead, I think you'll be fine."
Aquaman stared at Chen Chu in disbelief. I am your good friend of many years, and you are trying to trick me like this
Aquaman refused and reached out to peel off the sticker: "I think it's best for you to go. You're the strongest. Not to mention having Calabash Brothers, even without Calabash Brothers you can still come down from the sixth floor safely."
Chen Chu held down Hai Wang, preventing him from peeling off the sticker: "I don't want to experience the feeling of being a grandfather's chopsticks, so you should do it."
Aquaman: "Brother, I'm not sure if I can go to the sixth floor."
Lin Xi spoke up at this time: "Don't you just want to experience the feeling of being a grandfather's chopsticks? You don't have to go to the sixth floor, the fourth floor or the fifth floor will do. It won't be too late to go to the sixth floor after you are sure that you can use this prop."
Aquaman was stunned. Yes, he didn’t have to go to the sixth floor. He was confident that he could escape safely from the fourth floor.
Thinking of this, Aquaman immediately relaxed: "Okay, I'll go to the fourth floor and try it out, and bring you a few energy stones. If I can use your item, that would be really awesome."
At present, the function of the Calabash Brothers props is to forcibly bring the user back when the user is in danger. This function is only used to save the life of ordinary people, but if it can be used by people with stronger abilities, what can be done is completely different.
Take the Soul Locking Tower for example. The first to third floors are in easy mode. The energy stones and props in the room are not protected by barriers. As long as the psychic resists the curse and enters the room, he can take the things away. But the situation is different from the fourth floor upwards. Going up, the rooms where the energy stones and props are stored have barriers. If the psychic wants to take things away, he must break the barriers first. In this case, although Lin Yan can go up, she can't take anything inside.
Hai Wang Chao waved to the other man and walked towards the fourth floor.
Lin Xi and Chen Chu turned their heads and stared at the stickers on the wall, wondering if any Calabash Brothers would appear in a while.
Aquaman stepped onto the fourth floor confidently. The spirit on the fourth floor looked over at him the moment he stepped in. Under his cold and gloomy eyes, the air around him suddenly condensed, carrying a sense of murderousness.
Aquaman's heart tightened, and his supernatural powers flowed, summoning the water element in the air to form a natural barrier to wrap himself.
The spirit on the fourth floor looked at the water armor on the sea king and said a series of words: "#￥#@%￥#"
Aquaman: "Sorry, I don't understand. I'm here to get the energy stone. Which room do you put the energy stone in?"
Although Hai Wang said that, he did not expect the spirit to understand him, so he walked towards the nearest room. When he reached the door, he pushed it open and found a lot of smiling dolls inside.
Aquaman: "Oh, you cursed a lot of people."
Hai Wang did not plan to change props on the fourth floor. He turned around and walked towards the second room. He pushed the door open and saw boxes of energy stones. Hai Wang raised his hand, blasted open the barrier with one palm, and strode in.
At the same time, he felt a cold breath coming towards him.
The curse has begun?!
Aquaman only took one energy stone and didn't bother to take the second one. He quickly dodged to the left based on his feeling.
Damn, where are the Calabash Brothers
Lin Yan, a weakling, could carry more than ten energy stones back at a time, so it didn't make sense that an A-level player could only take one. So, Lin Yan's items could only be used by herself
At this time, at the exit of the third floor, Chen Chu sensed the energy vibration in the barrier and guessed that the spirit on the fourth floor had begun to curse, but the Calabash Brothers here did not refresh again. He looked at Lin Yan and said, "It seems that only you can use this item."
At this time, Lin Xi had no time to deal with Chen Chu because she was arguing with the system.
"Why do I have to pay 49 merit points?" Just one second ago, the system popped up a prompt.
[Seventh Baby has been released. If you want to use Seventh Baby repeatedly, please pay 49 points of merit. ]
"Please see the prompts." The system said calmly.
"Your suggestion is totally unreasonable. The old man sticker is already mine, and I should have the lifetime use rights to Calabash Brothers." Lin Yan said angrily.
"You have the lifetime use rights to Calabash Brothers, and the system charges a maintenance fee." said the system.
"What the hell is this maintenance fee? Calabash Brothers wants you to maintain it?" This is blatant blackmail.
"If there is no system maintenance, the eldest child will be weak, the second child will be nearsighted, the third child will be weak, and the fourth child will not be able to breathe fire..."
"Stop, stop, stop. Aren't you just trying to collect money in different ways? I guess you just can't stand the fact that I only spent 99 merit points to get the old man sticker."
The system rarely responded.
"You really are!!!" Lin Xi was furious.
"Do you still want to use it? Your colleague is still under the curse." The system decided not to argue with Lin Yan about this issue.
“…” Lin Xi was speechless after being rebuked by the system. In fact, it was only the fourth floor. Even without Calabash Brothers and Aquaman, she could escape safely. But thinking of what Aquaman had said before leaving, that he would bring her energy stones, Lin Xi thought about it and agreed to the system’s request and paid 49 merit points. Otherwise, she would be embarrassed to accept the energy stones that Aquaman would bring back later.
[Merit value -49 points.]
As the merit points were deducted, a familiar background music sounded, and the eldest child appeared: "Grandpa, I'm here to save you."
Then he decisively abandoned Lin Yan, the former grandfather, and ran quickly towards the new grandfather on the fourth floor.
It was the first time that Lin Xi observed herself as a prop from a bystander's perspective. I have to say, as long as she was not the protagonist, the scene was really funny.
Chen Chu was also amused. Just as he was about to speak, footsteps were heard at the stairs. The two looked over and saw Da Wa holding the 1.80-meter-tall Aquaman in both hands and running back. He ran to the sticker and threw it on the ground: "Grandpa, we're home."
Aquaman was enjoying the feeling of being a grandfather, but he was thrown to the ground like a broken stone without noticing. However, he had thick skin and it didn't hurt much.
Lin Yan smiled and leaned over: "How does it feel to be a grandfather?"
Aquaman stood up and answered irrelevantly: "Others can use your tool, but it seems to be a little delayed."
He was just about to run away when Calabash Brothers arrived so late that he only had time to take one more energy stone when he left, and couldn't take more.
“Is… is that so?” Lin Xi coughed unnaturally and decided not to tell the other party the specific reason for the delay of Calabash Brothers.
Aquaman had no doubts. He would never have thought that when he was risking his life, his good teammate would still be in the mood to bargain with others: "Here, I picked out the two biggest ones."
Neptune threw the energy stone in his hand to Lin Yan. Lin Yan caught it, smiled happily, turned around and handed it to Chen Chu.
Aquaman felt inexplicably uncomfortable watching this scene. He had the illusion that he worked hard to earn money, but his wife used his money to support a gigolo.
At this time, Chen Chu happened to look at Hai Wang, who was guilty and hurriedly avoided his gaze. Chen Chu frowned in confusion, but did not think much about it, and just asked: "Do you still want to go to the sixth floor?"
The Sea King immediately said, "Go, why not? Not only do I want to go, I also want to clear out the energy stones on the fourth, fifth and sixth floors."
As he spoke, the Sea King looked at Lin Yan and discussed with her, "There is a barrier up there, so you can't get it even if you go there. I can use your tools to move the energy stone up there, and then we can split it in half."
Lin Yan was about to agree immediately, but suddenly she thought of something and asked, "If we empty the Soul Locking Tower, will those people outside be unable to get out?"
Lin's question made the two of them stunned at the same time. The Soul Locking Tower was different from other subspaces. In other subspaces, they could collect enough energy stones by killing spirits, and in these subspaces, the number of spirits was far greater than the number of psychics, so as long as the psychics could defeat the spirits, they would eventually collect enough energy stones to leave. But the Soul Locking Tower was different. There were only seven spirits in the Soul Locking Tower, which was far less than the number of psychics who entered this place. If they didn't have the energy stones in the room, they might really not be able to get out.
Before Lin Yan, there had never been such a perverted person who could empty the Soul Locking Tower, so no one would think about this issue. Subconsciously, Chen Chu and Hai Wang also ignored this point.
Chen Chu pondered, "The energy form in the subspace is very strange. Someone once killed the spirit in the Soul Locking Tower, but the next time the Soul Locking Tower is opened, the spirit will reappear. So after the energy stones in the building are emptied, it is unknown whether the energy stones will disappear completely or re-condense. However, even if they need to re-condense, the biggest possibility is that they will be re-condensed the next time the Soul Locking Tower is opened."
In other words, if they really emptied the Soul Locking Tower, it is not known whether there will be energy stones inside the Soul Locking Tower next time it is opened, but there is a high probability that there will be no energy stones this time.
Aquaman: "Then you're not moving, just taking the props?"
[I want a power stone! ]
Lin Yan looked at the bold and red system comments in front of her and wiped her sweat silently. Sister Sadako, your love for energy stones is second only to Senior Chen Chu.
The Sea King looked at Lin Xi's long hair that moved automatically without any wind and couldn't help but complain: "Why does your hair move by itself all the time? It's scary. And the skill of your hair is space travel, right? Can it travel through the subspace?"
Chen Chu also looked at Lin Xi curiously.
Lin Xi shook her head: "No." Sadako could only climb the TV. There was no TV in the subspace. Next time, she could consider bringing a TV in. I wonder if Sadako could climb over if there was a TV here. If she could, she would have an extra life-saving skill.
Aquaman: "Then why are you wearing it? Such a long wig, it will affect your movements."
Lin Yan: "It can help pick up energy stones."
Chen Chu suddenly realized that the wood energy crystal that Lin Xi had snatched from Sato before seemed to be picked up from this hair.
Aquaman: "So powerful? This skill is much stronger than space travel."
After all, in the subspace, no matter how strong your spatial ability is, can you still get out of the subspace? Picking up energy stones is different. As long as you pick up enough, you can save enough money to open the door and leave. The Sea King suddenly understood how Lin Yan successfully left the subspace several times before.
[Foolish human beings.]
Lin found that Sadako was talking a lot today. Could it be that she had picked up enough energy stones just now, so she had the energy to talk? But the Sea King was clearly praising her, so why was Sadako still angry
Aquaman: "Well, I'll go directly to the sixth floor and pick out two props from the barrier. I'll take one myself and leave the other at the entrance of the barrier. You can change it later."
There is a rule in the Soul Locking Tower that one person can only take one prop out of the barrier, so Neptune can only help Lin Yan take the prop out of the room, but not out of the barrier. Lin Yan must take the previous prop herself and go up to exchange it.
Just as Lin Xi was about to nod, a strand of Sadako's long hair suddenly separated and hit Lin Xi's waist hard. Lin Xi cried out, attracting both of them to look over.
Chen Chu: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I just got a stitch in the side." Lin Yan rubbed her waist. "Well, let's take the energy stones. Let's take half. There are so many energy stones in the building anyway, so we just don't need to move all of them. Although I moved all the energy stones on the third floor, there are still some on the second floor. I didn't touch the ones on the first floor, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
This opportunity to make money might only come once, and even if Sadako didn't say anything, she wasn't going to let it go. After doing this, she might even be financially free.
Dear seniors from other sub-spaces, after I become financially independent, I will do more good deeds to accumulate merits for you. I just don’t know if the merits of the Earth will be useful to you.
The Sea King nodded: "Good idea, it's settled, I'll be back soon."
Hai Wang once again stepped into the barrier, and his efficiency was much higher than Lin Yan's, and even not worse than Qi Wa. When he came down again, he dragged a huge water ball with his right hand, which was full of energy stones of various colors. He actually used his water power to pack up half of the energy stones in the room and brought them out together.
After finishing the fourth floor, Aquaman immediately went to the fifth floor and did the same thing, and then to the sixth floor.
Aquaman went to the sixth floor twice, once to move energy stones and once to change props. In Aquaman's words, the curse master on the sixth floor was too cruel, and even he could not move energy stones and props at the same time under the curse of the other party.
Aquaman kept using the stickers until the fourth baby, then he returned the stickers to Lin Yan: "I threw the props at the stairs, don't linger when you go in, just take them and leave. The curser on the sixth floor is really fierce, I suspect it's a death curse." That gloomy feeling made even him a little scared, he even felt that if he went there a few more times, Calabash Brothers would not be able to bear it.
But it’s not a loss to get so many energy stones this time.
Lin Yan hummed, put on the old man sticker and walked slowly towards the sixth floor. Arriving at the sixth floor barrier, Lin Yan did not go in immediately, but quietly took out the master's ruler.
"I hope the curse master on the sixth floor has a tool that can break the twelfth-order curse. If not..." Lin Xi raised her eyes and looked towards the seventh floor, with a flash of hesitation in her eyes.
At this time, on the seventh floor, on a solemn throne, a spirit dressed in gorgeous clothes was sleeping. He was sleeping very soundly, as if he had been sleeping here since the Soul Locking Tower came into being, until the compassion of the Soul Locking Tower rang in his ears.
The luxurious crown swayed slightly, and the sound of gemstones colliding rang out in the lonely and empty hall. The sleeping spirit woke up, and its dark green eyes looked forward empty, listening for a moment: "Someone stole half of the wealth of the Soul Locking Tower?"
The spirit sat crookedly on the throne, with its right hand supporting its chin, looking lazy and casual. Its spiritual awareness spread, covering the entire Soul Locking Tower.
"Hey, you're back?" A smile gradually appeared in the spirit's empty eyes.
On the third floor, Chen Chu sensed something. He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the roof, his eyes full of fear.
On the sixth floor, Lin Yan had just stepped into the barrier, and the ruler was extended to the spirit that was looking at him: "Do you have a prop to remove the twelfth-level curse?"
A vicissitudes of life and simple voice sounded in the hall: "I have it."
Lin Xi was delighted and was about to continue asking questions when she suddenly realized something was wrong. The scene in front of her was not right. The current scene was not the scene she saw when she stepped in just now. And the spirit in front of her was not the spirit she had just asked questions about.
The hall on the sixth floor did not have so many jewels and energy stones, nor such magnificent decorations, nor a huge throne and a curse master wearing a crown.
Lin Yan had a bad feeling in her heart: "Which floor is this?"
Spirit: "Seventh floor."
