Chapter 932: When You Run Into A house, Don’t Enter It
Happy’s social circle was very small in his original world, and the people he contacted were few and far between as well.
Logically speaking, when he returned to this world, the first thing he should do was to change his human communication skills and try to get into contact with more people as possible, but now, the situation was different.
When he faced Class One Hall and the Blood Alliance Blood Robes built on his own, if he got into contact with a small group like Hunter Clan that developed on its own without the help of other places, he will just be bringing disaster to them.
In the end, either Hunter Clan was destroyed on its own, or Hunter Clan will stay far away from him.
Happy did not wish for that to happen, so he decided to destroy the possibility of this happening beforehand.
He entered Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts, which was a fortress that was built with a lot of money, and soon, Happy understood why it could remain standing even when the Chinese army trampled on it.
*****
The walls for Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts was incredibly sturdy, and it was built with special stones, which were linked together with a unique structure. It was even more difficult to destroy than the walls of the headquarters of a sect.
The mountain villa itself was a huge man-made maze. It was divided into blocks by countless walls, and each courtyard was not small. There were houses, fake mountains, and small streams in them. There were also plants and some disciples belonging to the mountain villa itself, which was something that cannot go missing.
The situation inside Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts was incredibly complicated.
It gave off the feeling of Sky Demon Secret Cave. The entire place was filled with traps in the walls, ceiling, flagstone tiles, near the plants, under the streams, the plants inside the houses, decorations, doors, and even the windows. There were some inconspicuous holes on them that can shoot the most fatal hidden weapons at any moment.
Happy was filled with fear with each step he took.
Also, if a courtyard was filled with more than fifty people, a destructive trap will be triggered, such as copper oil that will shoot out from all corners and will certainly cause copper toxicity, along with poison needles that were packed so densely that no gaps could be found between them.
Hence, even though the mountain villa was incredibly popular, only the area outside was popular. Very few people will enter the mountain villa, because aside from a handful of top-class elites, they will usually not dare to do so, and they also could not enter deep into the place.
And only three people managed to enter the core region inside since the day the mountain villa was created, which was Virtue Gathering Hall in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts.
One Emperor, Phantasmal Shadow, and Evil Emperor!
It was said that Phantasmal Shadow had paid quite the huge price for it. She sacrificed a lot of top-class fighters from Wind Assault Tower before she managed to enter Virtue Gathering Hall.
Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts was truly a dangerous place in the game.
However, to Happy, this place was the best training place for him.
At the very least, there will not be a dense wave of enemies who will appear in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts, and no one will take the risk of being baptized by countless traps to search for him.
*****
“I remember that the information on the forums stated that I cannot jump high in the mountain villa, and especially jump over the walls, or I will be attacked by nonstop Hill Breaker Needles. This stupid barbaric merchant, just how much money did he throw in here…?”
He moved through the first courtyard.
Since Hunter Clan had already cleared up the place beforehand, no enemies could be sighted here. He moved through a few traps which had been destroyed, and Happy arrived before an arched door.
Whoosh!
Wind blew above his head.
At the moment he moved through the arched door, he suddenly felt a sharp, metallic spike falling down above his head.
Happy said nothing. He turned his head around to cast a glance at the seemingly harmless arched door, which had returned to how it originally looked like, and frowned. He straightened his body and sized up the situation in the second courtyard.
It was said that even the lucky ones who need to go through at least nine courtyards if they wanted to head from the outside of the mountain villa into the innermost side. Those who were unlucky might end up running round in circles in the maze forever.
With each courtyard a person entered, the number of traps that person faced will increase, and the strength of the mountain villa’s disciples will also increase by leaps and bounds.
At the moment Happy entered the second courtyard, he was stunned.
It was empty inside.
But if he looked carefully, he will notice that aside from the fact that this place had previously reared a large group of beasts, there were plenty of places that were filled with the tracks and claw marks from beasts, and there were also some animal poop and fur.
‘Hunter Clan should have lured the beast tamer in this place outside. I’ll just go straight to the third courtyard…’ When he saw what was off about the place, Happy surveyed the area for a while, and his gaze landed on the house across the stream, which also happened to be shut tightly.
A group of people’s footsteps rose from behind him, and the people from Hunter Clan followed Happy inside.
When the party leader of Hunter Clan saw that Happy had already arrived in front of the house, he could not help but give a reminder to Happy. “Brother! It’s best if you don’t enter the houses in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts.”
“Why?” Happy stopped, turned around, and stared at the party leader in surprise.
The latter paused for a moment. “Brother, didn’t you hear about a saying circulating about this place? When you run into a house, don’t enter it.” The people from Hunter Clan nodded, and they looked incredibly solemn.
Happy said nothing, but when the party leader saw that Happy did not believe him, he quickly explained. “There are plenty of traps in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts, and it’s a real dangerous place. However, if you stay in the courtyard, you’ll have plenty of space to move around, and it’s actually very easy to avoid them. Normal players will be fine if they just pay attention to the place, but it’s different in the houses.”
“Please, go on.”
When they heard Happy’s reply, Hunter Clan exchanged a glance with each other.
‘Knew it.
‘This person is Chinese, but he doesn’t even know about the basic situation in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts but is so strong? He’s definitely Happy, the comatose player who is recently trending online!’
“Each of the structures in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts is meticulously created by master craftsmen and trap masters. Each house is practically a death trap! Even though rumors have it that decent items can be found in the cupboards and chests in the houses, those places are very dangerous. The most common difficulty can already easily kill a group of Moksha Realm elites. Once the traps are triggered, you won’t even know how you died, and each of them has a different pattern. Even top-class elites won’t dare to enter them easily, because they will be risking their lives there! There are quite a lot of people from Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank who died here over the past half a year.”
Happy fell silent. He found his skin crawl a little because of what the party leader said, and it just made him want to explore the interior of the house to know what was going on.
World of Martial Arts had been in operation for a long time, and he had truly never run into a region like this, which made his heart itch with desire. If he did not go in to see what was going on and was deterred because of a few sentences, he will not be Happy.
“Has anyone ever managed to benefit from the inside?”
“Yes, but very few.” The party leader’s tone was strange, as if he noticed that Happy did not intend to give up.
Happy smiled. “If yes, then it’s good. Tell me, what sort of items did the people who come out get?”
“I can’t really say, but there are definitely medicinal pills, valuable treasures from the palace, martial art manuals and equipment.”
“I heard that two months ago, someone managed to get a Moksha Realm hidden weapon manual called Snow Shadow Dart, and he sold it for fifty million taels of silver.” The Gu poison user behind the party leader chimed up.
Happy was instantly tempted.
Moksha Realm hidden weapon manuals were something that even NPCs at the peak of Inaction Realm seldom dropped. Happy had killed countless of them in the other world, but he never managed to get even a single manual. Those things were indeed hot-selling items.
Their grades can even compare to Inaction Realm martial art manuals…
Since he can find martial art manuals at such a level in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts, it meant that once any sort of martial art manual appeared here, the level for it was definitely not low.
Coincidentally, Happy will soon reach Moksha Realm, and he will need martial art manuals at Moksha Realm in the near future.
At that moment, instead of wasting time to gather information about Moksha Realm martial art manuals, it would be better to spend more time in training, and while he trained, he can also search for first-class martial art manuals in the mountain villa.
He believed that if he can get a Moksha Realm martial art manual in the mountain villa, no matter how bad his luck was, that Moksha Realm martial art manual should not be any weaker than Universe’s Lightning Destruction Art.
“I’m going in! Please, go on ahead with whatever you’re doing,” Happy suddenly said.
The people from Hunter Clan saw an incredibly great wave of confidence and determination in Happy’s eyes and words.
The party leader could not continue trying to convince Happy against his idea. “If that’s the case, we’ll wish that you can come out of it safely.”
Happy said nothing. He just nodded and turned around to walk into the house not far away.
*****
It was a two-story, old, and yellow building. It looked quite somber and stern, and by the sides of the shut door on the stairs were two stone lions that were slightly tilted. They looked alive, dignified, and fierce when they opened their mountains, and they were just like divine beasts protecting the building.
The group from Hunter Clan tentatively stood sixty-five feet away, and as Happy walked into the house, they stared warily at the building that seemed to be covered in bronze and had an intimidating presence. They held their breaths.
“Will he be alright?”
“Who knows?” the party leader answered the Gu poison user quietly.
The group looked back and forth the house in front of them.
Many of the people in the area were elites in traps, but they still did not have a lot of knowledge regarding the most dangerous part in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts. Since they had the chance to understand the traps in this place now, they will naturally not let that chance slide. They stayed in the area and did not move while they observed all the places that might have traps appear from them.
That included the doors, windows, stairs, and stone statues outside the door.
Their gazes were heated.
At that moment, Happy stepped on the steps, and the sound of springs rose!
The door opened. The stone lions by the side of the stairs coughed up a flying needle as thin as a hair simultaneously.
At the same time, three longspears shot out abruptly and horizontally from within the house.
None of this slowed Happy down in the slightest.
He suddenly sped up, and the fine needles all landed on the pillars across them.
When he faced the longspears that came flying at him horizontally, Happy did not even bother blinking. He just moved through the gaps between the longspears.
The entire process of the traps being launched to Happy dodging the traps was over in an instant.
His movements were not as exaggerated as other normal players when they avoided the traps!
“Be careful of the area above!” The group of trap masters reminded Happy simultaneously.
Before their voices even faded away, a large wave of arrows suddenly shot down from a dark area under a bright plate at the first floor of the house.
Happy did not retreat, but instead advanced forward. He shot into the house ahead of the arrows.
Thud! Thud!
Nearly one hundred arrows packed closely together pierced into the entrance and steps. In a flash, the party leader saw Happy quickly slap away a chilling, white light that shot out of the house. Then, the door fell shut with a thud, and whatever was inside was completely blocked from their sight.
“How fast!”
The group of trap masters looked at the three longspears stabbing the area outside the house, the fine needles on the two pillars, and the arrows that filled the steps, and they felt chills go up their spines.
Three layers… no, four. There were four layers of continuous traps, and they could instantly kill a Moksha Realm elite, but they did not manage to even cause a Life and Death Realm player take one step back!
