Chapter 58 Zero Difficulty’s First Level? (2/2)

The blonde girl looked at Niu Wu with some surprise, having previously thought that this guy was just a useless person, but now it seemed that he was not that simple.

The short-haired girl also showed a surprised expression.

Qi Ji wanted to persuade Niu Wu not to use the key to unlock the door.

“Niu Wu, let me open the door instead,” Qi Ji said with a smile.

Qi Ji wanted to directly open the door and pass through the levels with zero difficulty, but his words sounded like he was trying to take advantage of others’ efforts to get a free pass.

“Brother, that’s not very nice of you,” Niu Wu replied with a smile, although his smile seemed a bit stiff. “I found the key, so let me unlock the door.”

Hearing this, Qi Ji was left speechless, and he rubbed his nose, deciding not to stop Niu Wu.

What kind of look are you giving me? I’m just trying to help him.

Niu Wu excitedly ran to the metal door and inserted the key.

“Zzt… zzt…”

“Ah!”

A bright electric light flashed on Niu Wu’s body, and he was instantly electrocuted, his hair standing on end and his body smoking.

His clothes were burned and tattered from the high-voltage electricity.

At this moment, Niu Wu had completely changed, with a swollen mouth, blackened face, and a hairdo that looked like a broom.

The blonde girl, who had previously underestimated Niu Wu, now thought he was an idiot.

The short-haired girl looked anxious because this was the first level, and if they couldn’t pass it, it would mean they wouldn’t be able to pass the subsequent levels, and she would definitely fail.

Although Niu Wu looked miserable, he didn’t suffer any severe injuries.

He awkwardly scratched his head, but his mind was filled with countless thoughts.

“What the…? Who can tell me what’s going on? Is this some kind of exam? Why is there an electric shock?” Niu Wu exclaimed.

“It seems that the key is not the correct one, which triggered the door’s defense mechanism,” the blonde girl said seriously. “Let’s search again; maybe we’ll find another key.”

The short-haired girl and Niu Wu nodded, preparing to continue searching for the key.

Qi Ji couldn’t bear to watch anymore and directly walked to the metal door.

???

?

The three of them looked puzzled, unsure of what Qi Ji was doing.

But the next scene left them speechless.

Qi Ji simply pushed the door open without using a key.

“What are you waiting for? Let’s go!” Qi Ji said.

Niu Wu rushed to Qi Ji’s side, excitedly asking, “Qi Ge, you’re amazing! How did you pass this level? I don’t understand.”

The two girls also looked at Qi Ji with confusion, expecting an answer.

“Just because there’s a keyhole doesn’t mean the door is locked,” Qi Ji explained. “The so-called key is just a conventional thinking trap. This level doesn’t require a key to pass; it’s actually zero difficulty.”

(||)

The three of them looked embarrassed, thinking, “Zero Difficulty? Is he saying our IQ is negative?”

“That’s not right,” the short-haired girl said. “I tried pushing the door earlier, but it was stuck. It couldn’t be opened.”

Qi Ji chuckled and shook his head. “The door is stuck, but can’t you just use a bit more force to open it? Did you not eat breakfast?”

“Ah?”

The short-haired girl realized that she hadn’t used much force to push the door earlier because she didn’t think it required much effort.
