The moment his hand came in contact with the book, the golden glow of the book crawled up his arm to his forehead just like normal.
When this golden glow passed by Lin Fan's eyes, it revealed the same scenes as the other golden glows, while also showing him a few extra scenes.
These scenes were from the view of the elders, it was their memories that they had added in.
Even though they couldn't directly tell Lin Fan what happened because of the one watching above them, they still had their own ways. They had been taught how to control the golden energy, so naturally knew how to add something extra into the golden energy to show what they wanted to show without being caught, which was what Lin Fan was currently seeing.
Of course, they didn't dare add too much or it would take too much time for Lin Fan to digest the information which would draw suspicion.
In the end, it took Lin Fan just a bit longer compared to before to finish sorting through the memories contained within the golden energy, but when he looked at elders, there was a different look in his eyes.
He nodded at the elders and said, "I will do what I can, but I hope that you will help me when the time comes."
The black haired young man represented the others to say, "We can only give you what help we can, but you should also know that we're restricted in what we can do."
Lin Fan didn't mind this and he said with a nod, "It's enough for me that you've said that. Thank you."
The black haired young man gave a nod and said, "Good luck."
Then without any other words, he along with the other four elders all headed back to their coffins and laid back down. Once they were all settled, it was like something mechanical was controlling the lids as they went back in place.
With a "thud" sound, the lids of the coffin closed completely and all the pressure that they had felt before was sealed, as the room fell into complete silence.
Mo Ze Chen saw that Lin Fan wasn't saying a thing, so he came forward to say something, but Lin Fan turned first and said, "Let's get out of there, there's no time left."
Mo Ze Chen looked at Lin Fan with a complicated look, but he still followed him in the end for a variety of different reasons. The most important being that it would be dangerous to stay here any longer after what had happened with the other locations.
Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen didn't waste any time as they moved through the corridors. In fact, Lin Fan didn't even run himself since he knew it would be too slow, so he called out Xiao Feng and they rode on his back as he flew through the corridors.
As for the two maid girls, they were pulled back into the pet space since there was no need for them to be out here anymore. After all, they weren't planning on fighting anything, so Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen took the torches from them before they were pulled back in.
But before leaving, they didn't forget to give Mo Ze Chen a meaningful look. In fact, they had wanted to kiss him goodbye, but they couldn't work up the courage in the end and there was Lin Fan present, which made it much worse.
Once they were gone, Xiao Feng rushed through these tunnels at his max speed, going the distance that had taken them over twenty minutes in less than five minutes. The main difference was that this time they weren't carefully looking over each door and were just trying to get out as soon as possible, so naturally they went much faster.
Once they came up the stairs and out of the crypt, the entire area around them began to tremble.
Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen naturally knew what was going to happen, so without wasting any time at all, they immediately had Xiao Feng fly into the sky to avoid the collapsing ground underneath them.
When they made it into the sky, the ground underneath them began to collapse and it created a large hole underneath, but it wasn't just a normal hole. Instead of being a big round hole, it collapsed in the shape of tunnels, revealing the crypt that had been kept underground. It hadn't been in a single straight line like the one tunnel that Lin Fan had been in, but rather there were four different side tunnels that could be seen.
It seemed like there were doors along the path that led to these side tunnels and that should have been where the area bosses that held the four items to unlock the barrier were.
But neither Lin Fan or Mo Ze Chen were in the mood to look at this because there was something else on their mind.
They had finally finished clearing out all four locations and getting the items that they needed from those places, so there was only one place that they had to go now. From the sky, they could see the spray of water that came off the fountain in the middle of the city, but what they cared about more was the faint golden glow that was coming from it.
It seemed like something had changed there, but as for what, they would have to go there to take a look.
However, before they could make their way there, they suddenly heard someone calling out to them from below.
Turning in the direction of the voice, they saw that it was a group of actual humans which surprised them.
After all that they had gone through in this place, it was strange for them to see humans since it had been such a long time since they had seen a normal human. They could tell from the auras of these people that they were normal people and Mo Ze Chen even recognized them since they were also candidates of the Hunters Exam.
Lin Fan of course didn't recognize them since barely any time had passed since he came up to the upper realm, so he naturally didn't have the time to find out about other talented people.
Mo Ze Chen knew this and quickly explained to Lin Fan who they were before asking him, "Boss, what should we do? Should we bring them along with us?"
Lin Fan knitted his brows as he thought about something.
He didn't care about bringing them along, rather what he cared about was how they had gotten in here.
To get in here, you had to have the golden energy which allowed you to see the words that were written on the golden tree, but that wasn't the strange part. After all, there were ways to get this golden energy in here as demonstrated by Mo Ze Chen, so there had to be a way to get some outside.
The strange thing was how they had understood what the word carved onto the tree had meant. After all, the word that had been carved along the tree was written in Chinese.
Could it be that there was another transmigrator among these people?
Having this thought in mind, Lin Fan paused for a second before giving a nod and shaking his head, "We don't need to take them along with us, but let's see what they want first."
Mo Ze Chen nodded to this.
With a thought, Lin Fan had Xiao Feng fly down to where these people were standing.
When they came closer, Lin Fan got a better look at this group.
It was a group of five people, but it was clear who their leader was.
It was a young man who was standing in front of the other four who were all girls and looked at the young man with eyes filled with admiration.
Seeing the way the girls treated the young man, it was clear what kind of person he was and both Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen felt a bit of disgust towards him. However, they didn't judge him before this and gave him the benefit of the doubt.
Mo Ze Chen was the one who came forward to greet them since out of the two of them, he was the better choice.
Lin Fan was someone who was quite cold when he spoke and Mo Ze Chen was someone who worked in excavating ruins, a job that definitely couldn't be done alone and required connections, and was naturally better at talking to people.
Mo Ze Chen came forward with a smile as he said, "Hello, we haven't met before, but it's always nice to see another candidate for the exam…"
But before he could finish, the young man who led the other group suddenly raised his hand to cut him off.
The young man's eyes swept over him before he snapped his fingers in his face and said, "Alright, that's enough out of you."
Both Mo Ze Chen and Lin Fan were surprised when they heard this.
Out of all the responses that they had thought was possible, this definitely wasn't one of them.
After all, they were acting friendly to this person and he suddenly cut them off in this rude manner, this definitely wasn't a normal response.
After cutting Mo Ze Chen off, the young man looked at them with eyes filled with disdain as he said, "Tell me what you know about this place, now."
