Because Gu Yan was walking in front, Yu Lan's flashlight, which was as bright as daylight, was in his hand, so the two people walking behind could only walk by relying on peripheral light.

Long Shiqing was better, as she could see a lot of things clearly, but Yu Lan was not so good, as the light was much weaker when it reached her.

After walking only two steps, Yu Lan stopped and called softly, "Sister Meng?"

Mei Qimeng appeared behind her in response. She usually showed up only when she sensed some danger. Yu Lan called her out now. Did she sense something?

Gu Yan had good hearing, and when he heard Yu Lan calling Mei Qi Meng, he turned around to look. Facing the puzzled looks of the two people in front, Yu Lan said seriously: "I feel what will happen in a while, so let's take precautions first."

"Really? Why don't I feel anything?" Old players like them usually strengthen their physical fitness and have a much stronger sense of danger, but he didn't feel anything at this moment.

Gu Yan scratched his head, thinking that Yu Lan's feeling should be correct, so he also took out his weapon: "Then I will take precautions as well."

Mei Qimeng watched as Yu Lan quietly reached out to hold her hand, raised her eyebrows and smiled, without saying a word.

The system also noticed this and read the copy plot over and over again, but did not see any danger in the tunnel.

Could it be that Yu Lan's intuition is sometimes accurate and sometimes not? Why did she hold the mirror ghost's hand? Wouldn't it be inconvenient during the fight?

The system thought of many possibilities, rejected them all, and finally settled on an answer that he thought was extremely unlikely.

[Ms. Yu, are you...afraid of the dark? ]

【Shut up! 】

Before the system finished speaking, Yu Lan denied it. This attitude made the system feel very unbelievable.

Yu Lan, who is not afraid of ghosts, is actually afraid of the dark?

Yu Lan's face looked a little unhappy. She felt her heart was beating too fast and she couldn't suppress her anxiety.

I just hope to reach the end soon.

More than ten minutes later, after passing countless forks in the road, they finally reached the end.

"This road is really long and winding. Could it be that there is such a tunnel under every villager's house?"

Long Shiqing complained: "I doubt we have all walked out of the village."

There was a stone staircase in front of them. Gu Yan took the lead and went out to take a look.

After a while, he poked his head out from above and said, "You guessed right, we have already walked out of the village."

After walking up the stone steps, Yu Lan found that they were in a forest, and in front of them there was a building like an ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is hidden under the shade of trees and the building cannot be seen from the outside.

“Why is there their ancestral hall after the tunnel?”

Gu Yan was about to go in but was stopped by Yu Lan.

"what happened?"

"There are no door gods or stone lions, and the sculptures carved on it are not auspicious patterns. It is more like a ancestral hall than a temple..."

Yu Lan glanced at the building and said, "It's better to say it's a place to worship the evil god."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yan felt a chill down his spine: "What are you talking about? This is just a low-level copy, how can there be an evil god?"

The evil god setting will only appear in copies that are promoted from B level to A level or above. Low-level copies will never have such a high-risk setting. At most, it will be the enshrinement of evil spirits.

Yu Lan's face was not very good either. She also thought that she was wrong. Although the place was full of yin energy, she could not sense the presence of evil spirits.

When the system saw that they had discovered the temple, it sighed imperceptibly.

At this moment, all three of them received a system notification.

[Congratulations to players Yu Lan, Long Shiqing, and Gu Yan for finding the temple. The world exploration level is 60%, triggering the side quest. Please decide whether to accept it. ]

Gu Yan was a little surprised. He rubbed his brows and said, "Have you all received the system notification?"

Yu Lan and Long Shiqing nodded, and Gu Yan sighed and explained, "When you first entered the dungeon, did the task issued by the system include storyline exploration?"

"That's true, but you look so distressed. Is the exploration level of this world related to the storyline? And the side quests are related to our exploration progress?"

"It's really good." Gu Yan said, "But when I'm solving the story line, I rarely trigger side quests. I heard from others that side quests are quite difficult."

"Of course, you can choose not to accept it, and there will be no punishment."

When Yu Lan heard this, she raised her hand and said, "Teacher Gu, I have a question."

Gu Yan twitched his lips: "You say."

"May I ask why we triggered the side quest?"

"Good question." Gu Yan clapped his hands in appreciation, then his face turned cold: "I said I don't know, go ask the system."

They didn't know the answer to this question either. After all, as far as he knew, very few players had triggered the side storylines, and even he hadn't triggered it many times.

Yu Lan couldn't get an answer from Gu Yan, so she started to harass her system.

[Mr. System, could you please answer my question? ]

The system was silent for a moment: [...No, please explore the answer yourself.]

[Can't? Can't say it or don't want to say it?] Yu Lan sensed something wrong in his words.

The system remained silent, which aroused Yu Lan's curiosity: [Hurry up and tell me, hurry up and tell me, or I will write a complaint letter to the Lord God saying that you neglected your duties and failed to play the role of the system during the novice level. ]

system:?

No, what?

Seeing that the system didn't say anything, Yu Lan opened the information interface that only players could see in front of everyone: "You all have this thing, right?"

Gu Yan and Long Shiqing nodded and watched Yu Lan click on the help button in her personal information, which had a suggestion button.

Yu Lan pointed at the button and said, "Please help me write a letter here to complain about my system and sue him for dereliction of duty."

Gu Yan and Long Shiqing:......?

What kind of operation is this? Why are they suddenly suing the system?

"I've been playing games for such a long time, but this is the first time I know that I can complain about the system... No, it's the first time I've seen a player complain about the system." Gu Yan looked at Yu Lan as if she were a rare species and said, "I don't even know who the recipient is. What if it happens to be the system? You're really tough. You're not afraid that the system will target you."

Although Gu Yan said words of disdain, he was conscientiously helping Yu Lan write a letter of complaint. Seeing this, Long Shiqing also started writing.

The system was sweating profusely. They didn't know who the recipient was, but he knew! If the Lord God knew that he had just taken office and was complained about, and was the first system to be complained about in history, he would definitely laugh at him.

He quickly stopped me: [Okay! Stop writing! I said it.]

The system paused and said, "In fact, there are conditions for triggering side quests. For example, in this instance, you have encountered a key NPC. Because your actions against the NPC have triggered different clues, and now you have encountered a scene related to the NPC, the side quest has been triggered."

[The key NPC...] Yu Lan pondered, trying to guess which one was the key NPC the system mentioned.

[So, is there any connection between world exploration and storyline? I don’t believe these two are the same thing. ]

[......] In order to shut Yu Lan up, the system hesitated for a moment and answered her question truthfully:

[It is indeed not the same... In fact, the difficulty of each dungeon can be adjusted. For example, the novice level is an F-level dungeon, but in fact the highest level of that dungeon can reach D-level. When the system shows that the world exploration degree is 60%, it means that the world has advanced from F-level difficulty to E-level difficulty, and 100% means it has become C-level difficulty. ]

[When a player clears a level with a world exploration degree of 60% or more, the reward will automatically be upgraded to the reward for clearing a level of the same difficulty level.]

[Wow.] Yu Lan read out with a blank expression: [What was the world exploration level of my last instance?]

Logically speaking, since she can complete the side quests, her level of world exploration must not be low.

The system was silent for a moment, and then said a number that he couldn't believe: [95%]

[Wow!] This time Yu Lan exclaimed with all her heart. She didn't expect to get such high data. But it was a pity that it was not 100%.
