Bab 131: Stone Tree

Zayne stood at the pillar with his arms crossed and his eyes closed. Luis examined the key as sparks appeared in his eyes. He didn't know exactly what the key was for, but it was obvious to him that it had something to do with the finale.

Gradually the platforms were activated. Several players were able to make it through the trial, but they were all hurt badly enough, and only one pair came back together. Jane and Dave were among the last, and like Luis, they too returned alone.

"Well, well, it looks like the second stage was a lot harder than the first, wasn't it?" Luis smirked as he looked at the others.

"You all got a key each, right?" Jane asked with a wave of her hand.

Dave nodded, showing the key, "Yeah... but I don't know what to do with it at all..."

"Neither do we!" The girl and the guy exclaimed, pulling out their keys.
