Chapter 360 - Spell to Unlock

The three of them did not engage in much more conversation.

Mainly because Tong Ziran was still focused on breaking the record and didn't have time to waste here!

"Do you need me to give you the password?"

Shen Ling'er tilted her head and asked Mu An.

Although this approach had some cheating implications, who could blame her for being the one in charge of this set of passwords!

By the way, she had spent a lot of money to work part-time here.

That was several tens of thousands of yuan; the boss was very straightforward, giving her the green light all the way, and even specially arranged a bank vault-level security lock for her.

So, this little 'cheating' privilege was something the girl still had!

If Mu An knew about this, he would definitely give a thumbs up to the girl.

"Truly the first person to work for pay (part-time)!"

"Hmph! A password? What password? We've come this far with sheer strength, we don't need any passwords at all!"

Tong Ziran proudly placed her hands on her hips, as if she were the one who had unlocked the door earlier.

[In front of a rival who knows nothing, the girl is filled with a sense of superiority and pride. Emotional fluctuation +19, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +3 years]!]

[Due to the use of a special item, your reward has been multiplied tenfold. Congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +30 years]!]

'Hard... strength? How hard?'

Shen Ling'er felt a bit confused.

[From the girl's confused emotional fluctuation +15, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +2000]!]

[Due to the use of a special item, your reward has been multiplied tenfold. Congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +20,000]!]

"Hehe, just wait and see! An Gege, it's time for you to take action!!"

Tong Ziran had the grand demeanor of a female general, as if she could command her soldiers to slay thousands of invading enemies with just a point of her finger.

But the girl didn't even last three seconds in her role as a commander before a light chop from Mu An shattered her general dreams.

"Ouch, An Gege, why did you hit me?"

The girl covered her head with one hand, looking wronged at Mu An.

"Don't make me sound like a pet you've tamed, okay?"

Mu An rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Tong Ziran immediately affectionately wrapped her arms around the man's arm, trying to use her not-so-weak 'soft power' to seek his forgiveness.

She didn't forget to sweetly pout, saying,

"Sorry, sorry, how could An Gege be my pet? Clearly, I am An Gege's most favorite pet!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many single viewers in the live stream were about to explode.

- [Help! Dog slaughter! I came to watch the live stream for fun, not to see you two show off your love! Wuwuwu, the tears of a single dog!]

- [Host, you make me feel strange. Please restore your previous unruly young lady image!]

- [What favorite pet? Clearly, I am the most obedient dog of the host's childhood sweetheart! In this day and age, it's not easy for everyone to make a living, please don't steal my job! (Dog head funny)]

Mu An felt helpless.

He tried to pull his arm out of her embrace.

But the girl was holding on too tightly, and after several attempts, he still couldn't succeed, which only added a few indescribable blushes to her pretty face.

"Alright, let's quickly open this last door lock!"

Mu An was also afraid that she would continue to say something 'shocking', so he quickly changed the subject.

As expected, Tong Ziran's attention was successfully diverted, and she excitedly asked,

"So, what posture or tool are we using this time?"

Earlier, Mu An's method of unlocking had been quite eye-opening, just casually fiddling with things.

For example, a wire, snapping his fingers, knocking three times on the door, making a victory sign... and the locked doors would just open, incredibly magical.

Those who didn't know would think it was scripted, while those who did would say this man must have some skills.

"How about you just say a random spell?"

Mu An thought for a moment.

To let the girl continue to cause mischief, he chose a relatively safe method.

"A spell? Any spell will do?"

"Any spell will do."

Hearing this certain answer, the girl didn't have too many doubts, just playfully rolled her eyes.

Meanwhile, Shen Ling'er showed a thoughtful expression.

She had never witnessed Mu An's unlocking ability and was puzzled as to why unlocking was related to spells.

Could it be that there really is a legendary voice-controlled magic door in the world?

And Xiao Bai was even less convinced.

What spell unlocks a door? It sounded like a scam!

Even with his previous level of cultivation, he couldn't perform such an outrageous 'speak and it shall be done' operation!

So, he immediately typed with conviction, since no one online knew who he was.

- [What spell unlocks a door? It's clearly a scam! That pretty boy is just being funny, he's a clown! And let me add, if it really opens, I'll eat that lock! I'll do what I say!]

- [Is the brother upstairs trying to scam food again? (Dog head funny)]

- [Although I don't believe it either, that doesn't stop me from watching! By the way, when you eat the lock, remember to kick me, I'll come to cheer you on!]

"Open sesame?"

Tong Ziran pondered for a moment and tentatively said.

Then... there was nothing after that.

With a click, the last locked door was directly opened.

- [Magic! This must be magic! Otherwise, how could it open just like that?]

- [Even if it's scripted, it can't be written this absurdly, right? Using a spell to unlock has already transcended human understanding, right?]

- [Where's that brother who said he'd eat the lock if it opened? Please don't disappear on me, I'll be watching your account, waiting for you to go live and eat the lock!]

"No way, it opened just like that? I still have a lot of spells I wanted to say!"

The girl regretted in her heart.

In fact, she wanted to say things like 'I am Mu An Gege's most beloved woman' and 'I want to love Mu An Gege for a lifetime'.

"I'm not ready yet, how about we lock the door again and do it over?"

Saying this, Tong Ziran was about to close the door.

But she was stopped in time by Mu An, who saw through her little scheme, which left the girl feeling quite gloomy for a while.

"Congratulations to both of you, you have broken the record for our ghost-themed escape room, with a total time of twenty-two minutes!"

"According to the rules, players who break the record can waive the ticket fee!"

The boss lady immediately came forward to congratulate them and happily refunded their ticket money.

Although she was also very curious about how Mu An and the others unlocked the door in such a 'quirky' way, her good professional ethics kept her from asking.

And today's 'unlocking gimmick' would surely make her shop earn a lot for a long time to come!

…..

On the other side.

Seeing Mu An and the others come out, and then seeing the barrage of ridicule in the live stream, Xiao Bai felt as if he had been slapped hard in the face.

At the same time, he couldn't understand why a door lock could be opened with a spell?

Even with the strongest cultivation, it wouldn't be possible to perform such a delicate operation as 'unlocking from a distance', right!

[Due to your determination to seek attention, only to be slapped in the face by reality, Xiao Bai purely brought this upon himself and was ridiculed by many in the live stream. He felt incredibly embarrassed, protagonist luck -500, IQ -1-1-1... sanity -1-1-1... Congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +50,000], [Cultivation Years +8 years]!]

[Due to the use of a special item, your reward has been multiplied tenfold. Congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +500,000], [Cultivation Years +80 years]!]
