I upgrade alone

A thing that should not have happened has happened.

However, no one seems to have discovered this yet.

'We...we must have overlooked something. '

And the solution to their present predicament must lie among the things they overlooked.

at this time.

"Do not move!"

Song Zhiguo yelled at Xiao Zhu who was farthest from everyone.

"Ghost knows when these things will attack again! Do you want us to die here!?"

Xiao Zhu is a close-combat hunter with physical abilities far superior to normal humans.

Moreover, Xiao Zhu's ability has been recognized by a large guild, and he is ready to sign a contract soon.

"I absolutely cannot die here today."

While maintaining a posture of prostrating on the ground, Xiao Zhu accumulated strength on her legs.

His goal is the gate.

The powerful muscles in his legs swelled, as if they were going to tear his pants.

"Damn it, he..."

Song Zhiguo roared in a low voice.

At this time, Xiao Zhu stepped on the ground with both feet and rushed towards the door.

Cheng Jin-Woo suddenly turned his head to look at the statue.As he expected, the idol's eyes were aimed at Xiao Zhu's back.

A chilling red light emanates from the idol's eyes.

hum hum hum! !

The frightening red light overwhelmed Xiao Zhu.

"Whoa whoa!"

The heart-piercing cry of the female hunter came from beside my ears.

Maybe she was so frightened that she became incontinent, and a pool of yellow liquid flowed out from under her body.

The hunters' expressions froze.

"Oh my God......"

Where the red light passed, Xiao Zhu had already disappeared.Only two solitary feet were left scattered on the ground.

A hunter with poor physical fitness just vomited it out.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!"

Cheng Jin-Woo frowned.

In fact, the gods can solve them all as effortlessly as before.

It's as simple as crushing a bug.

'But...why didn't they do that?'

The idol could clearly kill everyone, but it didn't do so.

This is completely different from those monsters in other dungeons that attack hunters as soon as they see them.

If someone approaches the gate, the gatekeeper stone statue will launch an attack; if someone moves, the giant statue will emit a terrifying beam of light.....

It's like a game with certain rules.

'Could it be...is there some kind of law in this space?'

Scattered pieces of the jigsaw puzzle gradually took shape in Cheng Jin-Woo's mind.

He recalled the content on the stone tablet that Song Zhiguo read not long ago.

'Laws of the Cathenon?'

'Law' refers to some kind of 'rule', then 'rule' is this 'law'!

Perhaps the key to their safe escape lies in the 'law' of that stele.

"...worship God."

This is the first rule.

"Huh? What did you say?"

Song Zhiguo turned his head to look at Cheng Jinwoo.

Cheng Jin-Woo did not answer, but put his index finger on his lips to signal Song Zhiguo to keep silent.

He needs some time to think.

'If I'm right...'

Cheng Jin-Woo straightened his body slowly.

Song Zhiguo hurriedly tried to stop him, but Cheng Jinwoo shook his head firmly.

'...this is not what it looks like to give up your life. '

Song Zhiguo nodded.

Seong Jin-Woo stared at the statue and stood up cautiously.

The idol's eyes locked onto Cheng Jin-Woo in an instant.

buzz buzz buzz!

Sure enough, the light beam shot towards Cheng Jin-Woo.

If he lay down a few seconds slower, what would be melted would not be a few hairs, but the whole head.

Cheng Jin-Woo lay tightly on the ground, panting violently.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha."

Almost died.The moment he looked at the statue, he thought he was dead.Although he dodged at the nick of time, his legs were still trembling uncontrollably.

'but......'

Not for nothing, he understood an important thing.

'The stone statue does not attack people who move around. '

As long as it is close to the ground, no matter how it moves, the stone statue will not attack.

However, once standing up, the red beam will shoot out from the eyes of the idol without hesitation.

"As long as it exceeds a certain height, the statue will attack."

This is the conclusion Seong Jin-Woo just risked his life to come to.

Now, he is convinced.

This is the meaning behind the first rule!

Seong Jin-Woo shouted at the other hunters.

"Hey! Everyone!"

Everyone's attention immediately turned to Cheng Jin-Woo.

"Everyone must kowtow to the idol."

The hunters were very puzzled.

"kowtow….?"

"You want us to kowtow to the idol?"

The hunters who were still looking at each other just now started to curse at Cheng Jin-Woo.

"Damn... what are you blabbering about?"

"It's all like this, you can still say such a thing?!"

"Cheng Jin-Woo, are you crazy?!"

Wang Jianshe's veins bulged and he roared like a bull.

"You want us to kowtow to such a ghost, I really misjudged you, Cheng Jin-Woo! If it wasn't for not being able to move now, I would have punched you in the face long ago!!"

Cheng Jin-Woo bit his lips subconsciously.

This time, six people in the team have been killed by this stone statue.Cheng Jin-Woo asked them to bow down to the idol, and this kind of result was expected.

He fully understands the mood of the hunters now.

'But most importantly...'

He simply does not have any actual evidence to support his judgment.

Everything is just his intuitive guess.

But intuition is something that cannot be explained clearly.

But......

"I will do as you say."

The voice came from behind Cheng Jin-Woo, and everyone's eyes focused on that place.

The owner of the voice is Song Zhiguo, the leader of the team this time.

"Uncle Zhiguo...?"

"Are you really going to salute that damned stone statue?"

The other hunters were restless, but Song Zhiguo looked straight into Cheng Jin-Woo's eyes and asked, "Xiao Cheng? Did you find something?"
