Trigger the Trap

Su Fan and Ai Wei walked further into the cave.

Logically speaking, the deeper they went into the cave, the darker it would be as there was no light in the cave.

However, this was not the case in the Goblin Cave. After Su Fan and Ai Wei walked through the dark path in the first section of the cave, everything in front of them suddenly brightened up.

"Are these shimmer stones?"

Su Fan looked at the stones on the surrounding stone walls that were emitting a faint glow and asked curiously.

"Yes, these are shimmer stones, which can be found in almost every cave."

Ai Wei explained while nodding at the side.

Shimmer stones were stones that could give out light. Although the light emitted was very weak, it was bright enough to illuminate the path in the dark environment.

Such shimmer stones were favored by the poor because they could be found in almost every cave in The Domain of Gods. Most importantly, shimmer stones were abundant, they had low mining difficulty, and they were cheap.

Being able to see a bit of light in the night was already an incomparably blissful thing to the poor!

"These shimmer stones should have been designed by the officials so that the players can see the paths in the dark caves."

Under Ai Wei's explanation, Su Fan nodded slightly. However, in his heart, he was thinking about this matter from another angle.

"Probably."

As the NPCs in The Domain of Gods knew almost everything, Ai Wei could understand Su Fan's meaning without any problem.

Regarding this, Su Fan could only remain silent, for he knew that Ai Wei did not like to discuss this topic.

The audience in the live broadcast room also understood this point, so they immediately changed the topic.

"Hey streamer, we are not far from the first trap, right?"

"That's right! Very soon, the first trap will be activated. Normally, at this time, the heavy armor class will go up to trigger the trap alone, and one or more healers from behind will help him recuperate. However, the streamer is a thief. I suspect that about ten priests from the cloth armor class will be instantly killed!"

"Miss Ai Wei seems to be a powerful swordsperson. Even the light armor class is not as good as her."

"As long as Miss Ai Wei is fine, everything will be fine."

"That's right! I don't care if the streamer dies. The most important thing is that Miss Ai Wei is safe!"

The viewers in the live broadcast room did not think highly of Su Fan. After all, it was not like they had not tried the Goblin Cave dungeon before.

Therefore, they all thought that Su Fan might not even be able to see the goblins and would easily be killed by the trap.

"Do you think that I don't know all these things?"

Faced with the doubts of the audience, Su Fan immediately took out a sheepskin scroll from his backpack.

"Take a look at this!"

Su Fan unfurled the scroll with confidence. There was a hexagram pattern on it. At the center of the pattern was a row of words written in magic words.

[Beginner Magic Shield]

"I'm prepared to face the trap ahead with this Magic Shield. Do you really think that I came here on a whim? You're wrong!"

Su Fan held the magic scroll and looked at the live broadcast room with a smug expression.

Ever since Su Fan started his live broadcast of The Domain of Gods, due to his good luck, he had always been regarded as a mole invited by the officials.

Today, he was going to use his actions to prove to these people that he had the skills to play the game!

For this, he had made a lot of preparations.

However, when the audience in the live broadcast room saw his so-called preparations, they did not seem to care at all.

"Beginner Magic Shield? I remember that this thing can only increase a small amount of defense, right?"

"It would be fine if it's used by a light armor class, but the streamer is a thief... Streamer, are you thinking of making Miss Ai Wei trigger the trap?"

"Streamer, if you do this, I will not support you anymore!"

"If you're a man, you should go by yourself! You shouldn't let Miss Ai Wei risk her life. Do you understand?"

Many people were shocked because Ai Wei was a swordsperson who belonged to the light armor class.

If Su Fan gave this Beginner Magic Shield to Ai Wei, he might be able to succeed. However, this was quite unacceptable.

Letting a lady do such a thing was definitely not a gentlemanly choice!

Therefore, many viewers in the live broadcast room began to warn Su Fan that he absolutely could not do such a thing.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't do that."

When Su Fan saw that many people in the live broadcast room thought that he was going to let Ai Wei take the risk, he could not help but laugh.

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect Ai Wei as I promised earlier."

Su Fan said that with a serious face, and then he tore the magic scroll.

An orange-yellow magic power turned into a translucent membrane and covered his body.

This was the Beginner Magic Shield which could increase his defense in ten minutes. Even though Su Fan belonged to the cloth armor class, at this moment, his defense had already reached the level of a light armor class.

This time, the audience in the live broadcast room didn't say anything disheartening.

No matter what, Su Fan chose to go by himself instead of letting Ai Wei go.

Su Fan's action was worthy of their recognition.

Therefore, even if they didn't think that Su Fan could succeed, they didn't say anything discouraging. Instead, they cheered on Su Fan.

"Come on! Although the streamer's decision isn't rational, he is man enough to make that choice!"

"I like this attitude. This is the choice a man should make."

"Maybe the streamer can escape the moment the trap is activated? So far no thief can do this, but the streamer might be able to create a miracle for us."

The audience in the live broadcast room were all encouraging Su Fan, even though they didn't have high hopes for him.

"You guys better take a good look!"

Su Fan looked at the discussions of these people and smiled confidently.

Then, he walked forward with firm steps. As Su Fan walked forward, he counted the steps in his heart.

At that moment, he was not far from the 13th step.

Su Fan had been analyzing videos and found out a pattern. He know that if he walked straight for about 14 steps, he would trigger the trap.

Once Su Fan had taken 13 steps, he lifted his head.

"It should be the next step."

As Su Fan uttered that, he took a step forward.

Once he took this step, a thud was heard, and what he could see was a stone falling from above.
