Rule Room
The continuous system notifications rang in my ears calmly, without causing any ripples.
[An empty room was detected; nothing happened.]
[An empty room was detected; nothing happened.]
The next few rooms that opened were all empty secret chambers. There were no strange beasts, no treasures, no traps or mechanisms. Apart from the cold, lifeless stone walls, there was nothing special about them.
"It seems that a large proportion of the rooms in this secret realm are empty."
Xiao Fan stood in the long corridor, looking at the empty rooms, and felt a slight sense of emotion.
By this point, he had opened a total of eighteen secret rooms.
After opening eighteen rooms and exploring them, apart from the Curse Room encountered at the beginning and the Puppet Room where a bloody battle took place, all the other rooms were empty and yielded nothing.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan couldn't help but feel a slight pang of regret.
"I should have known better than to rush to exchange for the item and use the curse-removing item instead."
Given the current probability of opening an empty room, there might only be one Curse Room.
But the props have already been used, so there's no point in dwelling on it any longer.
Xiao Fan quickly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and returned to a state of peace.
While using the curse-removing item was a bit wasteful, it completely eliminated the hidden dangers of unknown curses during the exploration, allowing him to open rooms without any worries and greatly increasing the overall exploration speed. Overall, it was still a win-win situation.
"Continue."
Xiao Fan took a deep breath, composed himself, and looked down at the nineteenth stone door beside him.
With over a dozen rooms vacant in a row, based on probability calculations, the market has already hit rock bottom and cannot possibly remain stagnant indefinitely.
"This time, it shouldn't be an empty room."
With a thought, Xiao Fan manipulated the Puppet waiting beside him to step forward.
Click--
As the Puppet moved, a dull creak of machinery sounded, and the heavy stone door slowly opened inward.
The next moment!
A burst of intense, fiery red light erupted from the room, like a raging torrent breaking free of its restraints, instantly covering the entire corridor and illuminating Xiao Fan's face.
The dazzling yet harmless red light was striking and brilliant, a stark contrast to the previous dim and bland empty rooms!
Xiao Fan's eyes suddenly narrowed, his pupils contracted sharply, and a strong sense of anticipation ignited in his heart.
"Finally, it's not an empty room anymore!"
The monotonous exploration, which had yielded no results in over a dozen rounds, had made Xiao Fan somewhat anxious. But the sudden appearance of this strange phenomenon instantly invigorated him.
"I wonder what kind of special secret room was opened this time!"
Xiao Fan's eyes gleamed with anticipation, his heart filled with curiosity and excitement.
Out of caution, he did not rush in, but instead, as before, skillfully manipulated the Puppet in front of him to step into the room first to investigate.
The Puppet steadily entered the red light and stood quietly for three seconds. There was no murderous intent, no traps were triggered, and no unusual movements occurred in the room.
After confirming that it was absolutely safe, Xiao Fan lowered his guard and carefully stepped into the crimson room.
The moment he stepped into the room, a brand new system notification suddenly rang in his ears.
[Rule Room detected.]
[In this room, players can obtain the underlying rules of the secret realm.]
Rule!
Those two short words sent a jolt through Xiao Fan, and a bright light instantly flashed in his eyes!
"I've finally waited for this!"
He had previously suspected that the rules of the lower part of the secret realm might be hidden in these rooms.
He never expected that it would take him almost half of the rooms to finally unlock this extremely precious Rule Room.
This means that he will finally know the Secret Realm Rules.
