Why Don't You Do It?

"It's not a lie!"

Mithras believed in Riko and Zhou Qing, but also in Saundin, who had raised her. "Dad would never lie to me."

After saying that, Mithras angrily ran out of the kitchen, ignoring Riko's attempts to stop him, and went to find Saundin.

"Mithras!"

Riko anxious and chased after them.

"They really are like little kids." The Rabbit Girl sighed as she watched the two figures leave one after the other.

"Old Monster, please keep an eye on them for now." Zhou Qing hoped that Dugu Bo could secretly protect Riko and Mithras to prevent Saundin from suddenly attacking them.

"Um."

Dugu Bo nodded slightly, and his figure disappeared instantly.

Saundin's strength is comparable to that of Titled Douluo, but judging from his battle with Snake Lance Douluo, the key lies in the Soul Conductor and mechanical armor he wears.

With Dugu Bo's current strength... Zhou Qing didn't know how much stronger he was than before, but he estimated that if they clashed head-on, he would most likely be seriously injured. However, Dugu Bo was never good at direct combat; he was better at using poison unexpectedly.

Therefore, if Saundin were to make a move, Dugu Bo would have a pretty good chance of controlling her.

And what about him and Romantina?

He then went to the Gate to verify his conjecture.

Correspondingly, the Rabbit Girl, this Fallen One, also had to go there to be responsible for testing and comparison.

Inside the Steel Base, except for some closed areas, everyone could freely visit, so the two people and the rabbit found the Gate where the pillar was located without any hindrance.

The Rabbit Girl was the first to extend her rabbit paw towards the Gate covered with "stickers" of a flowing Starry Sky.

The energy membrane inside the Gate seemed to have been pierced, indenting a short distance inward. Then, a gap about three centimeters wide appeared around the Rabbit Girl's arm, as if an invisible force field had appeared around the edge of the Rabbit Girl's arm, capable of repelling the special energy inside the Gate.

"Is it the same for the holders of the White Whistle?" Zhou Qing stroked his smooth chin. "Could you describe the specific circumstances of the White Whistle holders entering the Gate?"

"Pretty much. When the person holding the White Whistle enters the light barrier of this Gate, the White Whistle will resonate with the holder, resulting in a similar situation," the Rabbit Girl said.

"Can a single White Whistle really only send one person down?" Zhou Qing had doubts again, after all, the Rabbit Girl said that when she went to the Fifth Layer, she was taken down by Riko's mother, Lyra.

"Under normal circumstances, a White Whistle can only allow one person to pass."

The Rabbit Girl said, "But if you can use the White Whistle correctly and play a special piece of music, you can widen this invisible gap on your body and take the others down with you."

"But even Lyra can only take one person down at a time. The Ascension Curse of the Fifth Layer is extremely painful for ordinary people, causing them to lose all perception of the outside world and making it easy for their bodies to break down due to poor control of their strength."

A special melody is played?

Zhou Qing seemed to be deep in thought.

The White Whistle looks similar to a whistle, but it has multiple holes, making it more like a special kind of flute.

As a musical instrument, the White Whistle can certainly play music of various styles, and the effect of the White Whistle may vary depending on the music played.

And then, thinking back to the creatures I saw in these Abyss Ruins—

The Bird Horse has a pair of large nostrils...

The Weeping Corpse Bird's body is covered in countless holes...

Essentially, it is just an evolution that organisms have completed to adapt to the special environment of the Abyss Ruins. However, these evolved special organs and biological structures can also make the most of the vibration of airflow to carry out various Life activities: running, flying, and even using the sound of vibration to imitate the sounds of other creatures to hunt.

The function of the White Whistle is to use the vibrations caused by airflow passing through it to resonate with itself, and it may even resonate with other creatures!

Once the corresponding resonant audio frequency is found, the corresponding musical movement can be played.

"You are really smart."

The Rabbit Girl didn't hold back her praise, "You know, most Explorer in Abyss Town don't know these things."

"I witnessed Lyra's battle on the Fifth Layer. Playing the White Whistle can enhance a Fallen One's abilities in all aspects by several times! Moreover, I've heard that a truly great White Whistle Explorer can enhance abilities by more than ten times!"

Romantina concluded, "From this perspective, the White Whistle can keep its own Aura Field in harmony with the outside world, and it can also strengthen the Fallen One by playing different pieces of music... Is this process achieved by the vibration of different sounds, thereby bringing the Fallen One's Aura Field into harmony with the outside world?"

"It shouldn't be."

Zhou Qing shook his head. After all, the Fallen One themselves were not affected by the Ascension Curse and could pass through this Gate at will, proving that their Aura Field was adapted to the Aura Field of this Abyss Ruins.

But why does playing the corresponding chapter with White Whistle strengthen the Fallen One?

There's only one possibility!

That is, to the music of the White Whistle, the Soul Power of the Fallen One began to circulate.

Just as the Abyss People do not know how to circulate Soul Power, the Fallen One also do not know how to use Soul Power efficiently. Apart from the support of Soul Conductor and machinery, they basically fight based on instinct.

The reason why the White Whistle can enhance the combat power of the Fallen One several times, or even ten times, is that after the White Whistle plays the corresponding music, the vibration of the sound affects the Fallen One's Soul Power to operate in a certain way, greatly improving the efficiency of Soul Power utilization.

"I don't know about that, since I've never been enhanced by White Whistle." The Rabbit Girl shrugged, thinking that to test this, she would first need to obtain a White Whistle.

But that's obviously impossible.

So Zhou Qing gave up on that plan, looked at the Star Map on the Gate, and slowly stretched out his left hand.

When faced with the "image" option, Zhou Qing thought for a moment, then put down Xiao Zuo and took out Xiao You.

Romantina, however, showed a look of disdain.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Zhou Qing noticed Romantina's gaze and glanced at her sideways. "Why don't you do it?"

"I won't do it!"

In the past, Romantina would have half-heartedly agreed, but her masochistic tendencies hadn't yet reached the point of wanting to break her hands or feet.

As a pervert, she knew very well that only a strong and healthy body could sustain a relationship in the long run, and she would never accept that kind of self-harm!

"You really have a lot to say!" Zhou Qing didn't really intend to put Romantina in danger; he just wanted to ease the tense atmosphere.

Wave!

Zhou Qing reached his hand into the "Star Map" inside the Gate and felt no resistance; the Gate let him in without any obstruction.

[Really!]

The Gate doesn't reject me!

Realizing this, Romantina also reached her arm in, and with each in-and-out motion, the Star Map on the Gate rippled and undulated due to Romantina's audacious action.

Just as Zhou Qing was speechless at Romantina's lewd and gleeful expression, a tremor came from the outer perimeter of the Steel Base...
