As the saying goes, life is like a show.
You’ll never know what awaits you in the future.
Just take Chen Yilang as an example.
He came to Yunzhou City of a whim.
He coincidentally ended up in Happy Ridge.
He somehow managed to locate the [ City of Terror ] by accident.
At the end of it all, he even managed to open the [ Bronze Door ] just by bumbling around in the starting area…
One had to say,
Life was truly strange.
At this moment.
Before he could fully digest the rewards he had received from the system…
He was already surrounded by a large group of excited participants and was pushed to the outside, past the finish line…
The circumstances and turn of events made Chen Yilang reflect on his life.
After all, he was clearly the one who had pushed open the [ Bronze Door ]!
Why are they acting as if they were the ones who cleared the stage..
Nevertheless, Chen Yilang was paraded like a hero as the other participants lifted him past the exit.
“Congratulations to all the explorers present. You have worked together to find the clues hidden in the [ City of Terror ] and have successfully escaped from the castle!”
The host who was guarding the finish line immediately came forward and announced the final result to everyone with a smile.
Chen Yilang took a look around him.
About 20 participants have managed to escape from the castle before the bronze gate closed.
The rest of the participants did not make it in time and had failed.
Chen Yilang took another look at the crowd and realized that Jiang Linguo was nowhere to be seen.
This was a little strange.
Logically speaking, she should have been among the group of winners. After all, she should have rushed back together with Lin Jie and Chen Jiahui upon hearing the announcement.
However, seeing as she was nowhere to be seen, it was highly likely that she had quit the game.
“I would like to ask, who was the explorer who discovered the key to the final door?”
The host stuck his head out and asked, “Can you raise your hand and reveal yourself?”
Chen Yilang was about to say something, but the other participants were one step ahead of him.
“It’s this big brother!”
They even grabbed Chen Yilang’s hand and raised it.
“…”
F*ck!
You guys are stealing all the glory!
However, the group of fellow explorers seemed to be very enthusiastic, and as such, Chen Yilang could not force himself to blame them too much.
“Then, congratulations to this young man for becoming the greatest winner in this batch of players!”
“We have prepared a small gift for you. Now, please come up and accept the award!”
The explorers below the stage cheered Chen Yilang onwards as he made his way up the stage.
The attendant at the side walked up gracefully and handed an exquisite small box to Chen Yilang.
Chen Yilang looked down.
Inside the small box was a shiny necklace that shone a beautiful shade of silver. However, the logo of Happy Ridge was etched on top of it, causing Chen Yilang to comment in his mind, “It looks a little ugly.”
However, upon raising his head and noticing the envious look of the onlookers around him, he felt that he was not a winner, but rather, a person who owed several debts.

“…” Chen Yilang was speechless.
He really did not expect this.
He really did not understand.
The necklace looked hideous, and yet, there were this many individuals who wanted it?
Upon closer look, Chen Yilang noticed that most of the [ Sourpuss ] were actually girls.
After the slightly awkward award ceremony ended, the graduation trip trio left the City of Terror.
Chen Yilang spotted Jiang Linguo trotting over from afar.
“How is it? How is the situation?”
Jiang Linguo seemed to be a little impatient and asked, “Why are you guys so slow? I’ve been waiting for a long time! Did you guys manage to escape the castle?”
“Of course!” Lin Jie answered enthusiastically, “We made it to the bronze door at the very last moment. It is a pity that you didn’t come with us.”
“Is that so?”
Jiang Linguo frowned in disbelief. After thinking for a while, she asked again, “Then… Did the bronze door really open at the end?”
“Why of course! How could we have escaped otherwise? Plus, I’m sure you heard the announcement as well, right?”
“Who opened it?” Jiang Linguo asked.
“Brother Lang, obviously!” Lin Jie added, “Brother Lang is truly awesome. We don’t know where he got the bronze door’s key, but all’s well end’s well, right?”
“…” Jiang Linguo was dumbfounded.
This was impossible!
Jiang Linguo refused to believe it!
How is this possible?
How can a newbie who’s never been to haunted houses before clear the City of Terror?
Who would believe such a thing!
“Seriously, don’t you think that the design of this necklace is quite ugly?”
At the same time, the voices of Chen Yilang and Chen Jiahui who were chatting at the side had made it into Jiang Linguo’s ears.
“Just a bit.”
Chen Jiahui nodded and agreed, “But many girls want it because it’s popular on the Internet. Many girls have dragged their boyfriends to this amusement park all for this necklace. As a result, business is booming…”
“Speaking of which, didn’t Jiang Linguo come here for this necklace? She said that she was determined to get it, but who would’ve expected that you would be the one to cinch it…”
Jiang Linguo was slightly stunned and turned to look at Chen Yilang.
Chen Yilang was wearing the necklace casually on his ring finger, and he was twirling it around as if he were playing with a bunch of keys.
“It’s average, I guess.” Chen yilang shrugged and said, “To be honest, I’m not interested in this thing at all… I’ll show it to my cousin some other day. If she likes it, I’ll give it to her.”
