Having received special boosts from the game, the three people's mindset has completely changed.
This Instance no longer instills any fear in them; it seems there's nothing within Instance that can threaten them anymore.
At this moment, all they wanted was to meet the warden of the Home of Evil Ghosts as soon as possible.
That warden made them suffer terribly and almost killed them; now it's time for revenge.
"Where are we going to find him?" Wei Changping said. "Let's forget about clearing the Instance for now, let's kill that boss first."
Li Xingyu agreed, "Yes, as long as we kill him, we won't be any threat in this Instance."
As for how to clear the Instance, we can discuss that later.
"Let's go to the warden's quarters," Tang Yun said. "We should be able to find him there; he always has to go back eventually."
Just a moment ago they were worried about not being able to escape from the BOSS, but now everything has changed.
Instead, they were worried that they wouldn't be able to find the warden and take their revenge.
After discussing it, the three decided to do as Tang Yun suggested and head to the warden's residence now.
They had been to the warden's residence once, but hadn't had time to inspect it before being distracted by the sudden appearance of the puppet.
This trip will provide a good opportunity to check out that area; perhaps we can find crucial clues for getting through.
This Instance has been around for a long time, and there are not many places left that haven't been explored. The Warden's residence is one of them.
The key to clearing the Instance is definitely hidden in these places.
The group, familiar with the route, quickly arrived at the warden's residence. Tang Yun ordered the evil spirits to wait near the residence, while they went directly to the second floor.
That doll must be in cahoots with the warden; it just so happens to appear when they're about to explore the warden's office.
This made them even more certain that there must be some important clue hidden in the warden's office.
But this time they still couldn't get what they wanted.
Upon arriving on the second floor, the first thing that struck everyone was the complete mess.
The room had been ransacked, and the office furniture and other items had been deliberately damaged.
It seems someone got here before them and turned the place upside down.
Now, they probably won't find anything.
Looking at the bookshelf lying on the ground and the books carelessly tossed about, Li Xingyu felt an immense pang of heartache.
He saw these books on his first visit, but the presence of the dolls prevented him from examining them closely.
He had thought this trip would make up for his regrets, but now it seems that those regrets will remain forever.
These books decayed under the erosion of time, and after such a catastrophe, they became tattered and broken.
I'm afraid he won't have the chance to see the complete contents.
Li Xingyu painfully tidied up the torn pages of the books on the ground.
Tang Yun and Wei Chang felt similarly to him, but not because of the books.
The room has been ransacked like this; they probably haven't found the clues they were looking for.
"Who could have done it?" Wei Changping asked.
Tang Yun analyzed, "It definitely wasn't that warden. He has no reason to do that, and no one in the Instance would dare to enter the warden's office."
That leaves only one answer.
Wei Changping immediately understood, "You mean it was done by another team?"
"Of course, who else could it be but them?"
Wei Changping said with some concern, "I wonder if they received any special bonuses from the Instance."
Tang Yun said, "I don't know, but it's very likely they're in the same situation as us. If that's the case, it will be very difficult for us to clear this Instance."
Yes, although there are no longer any threats in the Instance, they still have difficulty clearing it because another team has already gotten there first.
There are only three of them now, while the other side has five.
If those people also received special bonuses, they might not necessarily have a chance of winning if the two sides encountered each other.
Moreover, they currently have no idea how to clear this Instance.
Their best option is to give up on clearing this Instance.
Tang Yun was somewhat annoyed. She had thought she would definitely be able to clear this Instance and get the rewards, but unexpectedly, everything was gone just like that.
"I wonder if that warden is still alive," Wei Changping said. "If the BOSS was also killed by them, what's the point of us getting this bonus?"
At this moment, he felt extremely unhappy that he had just acquired a set of skills but had no opportunity to use them.
Not only were the Instance difficult to clear, but even the boss might be stolen by that team, depriving them of the chance to take revenge themselves.
Tang Yun frowned and said, "It shouldn't be that bad, there's no sign of a fight here."
I think they most likely came here while the boss was away.
Furthermore, it's still uncertain whether they've found any clues to clear the Instance.
We're not entirely without a chance.
But Wei Changping felt that their chances were slim.
Just then, a crisp sound came from outside, like the sound of iron chains rubbing against the ground.
The three of them perked up, and Tang Yun and Wei Changping both showed a hint of joy on their faces.
They knew, of course, that the warden was always holding an iron chain, and that the noises outside were most likely coming from him.
Clearly, he is still alive.
They weren't really concerned about the boss, but only if the boss was still alive did they have any hope of killing him with their own hands.
Even if they can't clear the Instance, at least they can kill the boss and get revenge for the arrow they just shot. That can be considered a good thing, right?
"Stop messing with your junk, the boss is here," Wei Changping said, looking at Li Xingyu was fiddling with the books.
"Okay, I understand," Li Xingyu hurriedly put the remaining pages of those books into his inventory.
Now is definitely not the time to organize the books, since the boss has already arrived.
Even if he doesn't take the BOSS seriously, he still has to be a little bit serious.
The sound of chains scraping the ground grew closer, indicating that the BOSS was now on its way.
"Finally, something that's going relatively smoothly has happened," Tang Yun said.
"Get ready, everyone. We absolutely cannot let that BOSS get away this time."
"Don't worry, he can't escape," Wei Changping said confidently.
He had barely finished speaking when he activated the barrier once more.
This barrier is different from the previous ones. Inside the barrier, there is a holy white light everywhere, illuminating everything within it.
"These white lights filled every corner of the barrier, which could weaken the power of ghosts."
Moreover, it possesses formidable offensive power, and coupled with the extremely sturdy nature of my barrier, it has absolutely no chance of escaping.
After Wei Changping finished speaking, he looked at Tang Yun and said, "Don't worry, your evil spirits won't be affected. I can control all of this."
He had barely finished speaking when the door to the warden's office was suddenly pushed open.
The warden appeared before them.
