225: Chapter 225 Strange

Previously, in the Superpower Metropolis.

Chen Fan had even let the group of the old man with gold-rimmed glasses go, and in the end, they all received an SSS-rank rating.

Presumably, that time he had already completed the Exploration of all the unknowns in the city.

As for the later City of Sin dungeon, he only received an S-rank rating.

Thinking back on it now, when he completed the mission at that time, there was one Dark Gate that hadn't been opened.

And this time, he had also discovered an underground passage that hadn't been explored.

These two conditions each deducted a point, so the final completion rating was S-rank.

If he had been able to open the Dark Gate and explore the underground passage before completing the dungeon back then.

Then the City of Sin dungeon rating would also have been SSS-rank!

Thinking of this, Chen Fan's eyes lit up.

"If that's the case, doesn't it mean that the Gang Yao Metropolis still has two secrets?"

Chen Fan's breathing gradually became rapid.

"Boss, are we leaving the dungeon?"

"Yeah Boss, the warship is still upgrading. How about we wait until the upgrade is finished and come in together next time?"

The Players, having obtained a massive amount of supplies, couldn't wait to go out and upgrade in peace.

After all, the Night Instance was not as safe as the Mainline World.

Chen Fan withdrew his thoughts, nodded slightly, and signaled to Luo Li.

Luo Li immediately understood and opened the regional channel:

"You all exit the dungeon first and get your levels up."

"Alright, thanks Boss, thanks Big Sister Head!"

"Then we're heading out first? Just let us know if you need anything."

"Goodbye Big Sister Head! Goodbye Boss!"

"..."

White light flickered.

The remaining four hundred thousand Players successively exited the dungeon.

The entire sea area was left with only Luo Li, Xiao Xiao, and the eight hundred people from the original District One.

Chen Fan waved his hand, "Brothers, there should still be two secrets in this dungeon that haven't been discovered, which is why we only received an S-rank rating."

"Now, everyone follow me back to the city center to dig out these two secrets!"

Instantly, the elites' eyes lit up.

Two secrets? I like that.

Whether it's a big secret or a small secret, as long as it's discovered, rewards can be obtained.

Furthermore, based on past experience, anything that counts as a secret is basically huge!

In an instant, over eight hundred people immediately boarded the vehicles the Crew Members had driven back.

At the same time, Commander Lin, who was possessed by 9527, also boarded the Mechanical Dragon with Chen Fan and headed over first.

Although the city was large, but Chen Fan's target was clear—the Central Building.

He had previously felt that there was something wrong with that building.

He turned his head to look at Commander Lin and said softly:

"Is it really impossible to use teleportation inside the Central Building?"

Under 9527's control, Commander Lin appeared exceptionally obedient; he nodded:

"Once you enter the building, the teleportation provided by the headquarters' equipment cannot be used."

"Does headquarters know?"

"They know. Before I came over, headquarters transmitted some information to me, which included this point."

Chen Fan nodded.

It seems the secret is inside the Central Building.

Just as Chen Fan was on his way, he had already ordered the soldiers remaining there to start searching the building.

Through the surveillance footage, Chen Fan checked the entire building again.

Unsurprisingly, he couldn't find any flaws inside the building.

"Looks like I'll have to dig."

Chen Fan chuckled, watching as the dragon gradually descended and finally landed in the place where it had previously been parked.

He summoned ten thousand soldiers and gave them the order to search for a hole in the ground.

With their subconscious familiarity with the nearby area, perhaps they could bring some good news.

Chen Fan himself, along with the Crew Members, personally searched the building inside and out.

The result was still nothing.

Sitting in the Commander-in-Chief's office on the top floor, Chen Fan rubbed his chin:

"9527, where do you think the entrance to the underground passage is?"

"Don't know, hungry, hungry..."

Chen Fan glared at him, threw out ten points of energy, and continued to mutter to himself:

"Could I have guessed wrong? Is the underground passage here at the seaside like in the City of Sin?"

Commander Lin grabbed the bottle, swallowed it whole, and let out a burp:

"Don't know."

"Besides eating, what else do you know?"

Chen Fan curled his lip, his brain spinning rapidly.

Teleportation is not allowed inside the building; either headquarters is deliberately restricting it, or something inside the building is blocking the teleportation signal.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He thought about the time his avatar turned grey when he entered the underground passage in the City of Sin.

Could it be like that here too?

But in the friends list, all functions could be used normally.

Why on earth is that?

"Range... range." The full 9527 kept patting its stomach.

"Range?"

Chen Fan's eyes lit up; he opened his friends list and requested a video chat.

Jiu Jiu answered instantly: "What's up?"

"Nothing much, just watch my avatar; I'm going to try something."

Jiu Jiu instantly understood and nodded repeatedly, "Mm-hmm, go ahead and try."

Chen Fan smiled slightly, immediately stood up, and walked around the top floor, ensuring he passed through every spot.

"How is it? Did it turn grey?"

"Nope, I'm staring at it the whole time."

"Good, next floor."

Chen Fan nodded and walked down the stairs.

Just like that, Chen Fan tested it floor by floor.

Even when the eight hundred people arrived, he only instructed them to search the surrounding area while he continued his experiment.

Just as he reached the tenth floor, the system sound rang out.

[Ding!]

[Night Instance update, closing soon. Countdown: 30 minutes.]

Chen Fan's figure paused, then he quickened his pace:

"Not much time left, I'm going to speed up. Jiu Jiu, can you keep up?"

"Mm-hmm, Brother, speed up, I can do it!"

Jiu Jiu waved her pink fist and stared wide-eyed at Chen Fan's avatar.

Chen Fan's legs moved rapidly back and forth.

Jiu Jiu was lying in the car, staring fixedly at Chen Fan's avatar.

When Chen Fan reached the third floor.

[Countdown: 20 minutes.]

Chen Fan's brows furrowed even tighter.

He muttered to himself: "Could I have really guessed wrong? Is the underground passage not here?"

After saying that, he accelerated again.

By the time Chen Fan reached the first floor, his heart had already gone cold. At this time, there were 15 minutes left.

Just then, an exclamation rang out:

"Boss! I've found something over here!"

Chen Fan's brow twitched, and he immediately responded: "Wait for me to arrive, don't act rashly."

"Yes! Boss!"

Chen Fan took a deep breath, looked at the last unexamined first floor, and subconsciously walked towards the very center.

"Brother, didn't they find something over there? Are you not going to go take a look first?"

Jiu Jiu glanced at the countdown, feeling a bit confused.

Chen Fan shook his head, "There's just a little bit left; I'll finish checking first, there's still time to go over."

"Mm-hmm, I'm watching, Brother can speed up."

Chen Fan chuckled, his tense mood relaxing a lot, "You girl, you've gotten corrupted hanging out with Vase."

"No I haven't!"

Jiu Jiu giggled, "I just saw the atmosphere was tense and wanted to lighten the mood, you stinky Brother, you're not..."

"Hmm?"

Chen Fan's footsteps paused.

He looked at the hung-up video, then looked at the floor beneath his feet, his heart pounding rapidly.

The next second.

"Mountain Ridge Giant! Come out!"
