Even after leaving the floating island for a long time, Aya was still immersed in shock.
"How, how could that be possible!?"
Aya seriously recalled the eloquence of Wang Lu. After thinking about it, she could only admire him.
"Actually, there are still a lot of loopholes in your story."
Hearing Aya's sigh, Wang Lu said with a smile, "After all, the story is essentially a lie. According to strict logical reasoning, it is certainly not tenable. However, logic is not omnipotent. The story has been so sensational, what else can he do? "
After a pause, Wang Lu said, "Fortunately, the stone gate is a human, so it has the wisdom and feelings of human beings. It can be impulsive and misjudge. Otherwise, this level would be a bit difficult. But if it's not a human, how could it make such an unreasonable request? In fact, my story is essentially based on it. A fool who has been exiled and punished for more than ten thousand years, but is still loyal to the Golden King and brooding over his past mistakes. "
—
Along the stairs, the group walked in a dark independent space. Only the stairs under their feet shone. Before long, the scenery in front of them changed, and another stone gate appeared in front of them.
Only, this time, it was not an open area. Behind the stone gate, there was obviously a long and narrow corridor. Deeper in the corridor, there was an endless unknown.
"Is the next level the second level?" Wang Lu was eager to try. "My adventurer's spirit is already unbearably hungry!"
Unfortunately, the second level did not have a shortcut like the first level. Because the stone gate was just a stone gate, it did not have its own wisdom. Perhaps its design was relatively rigid, or perhaps after more than ten thousand years, the original intelligent life has gone extinct.
In short, there were vague handwriting on the stone gate, which explained the rules of the second level in ancient language. But perhaps because of the long time, many of them were already blurred and difficult to understand. After the efforts of Wang Lu and Aya, the final result was:
"The endless labyrinth contains endless unknowns … Every weakness of human nature will be captured … The tough test needs to be faced with blades and swords … Only when the five of us are united can we enter and reach the other side."
Wang Lu repeated the rules a few times and tried to summarize them. "Simply put, it's a huge labyrinth that requires a team of five to open. There are all kinds of traps, some to test one's character, and some to test one's combat power. It's a comprehensive labyrinth dungeon."
Aya said, "If the difficulty of this championship trial is progressively higher, then the difficulty of this level is likely to be higher than the previous one. Moreover, as far as I know, in the era of the Golden King, most of those who could obtain the title of champion were strong people who were close to the legendary realm. With our current lineup, I'm afraid … "
"What is there to be afraid of? With a former legend like you around, can't we just crush them all the way? "
Aya was a little shaken. "I'm sorry, but I'm … in a very bad situation right now."
Wang Lu asked in surprise and concern, "What's wrong? Does someone with a Heroic Spirit Physique have a menstrual period? Doesn't that mean … I'll get pregnant? "
Aya: "…"
"Hahaha, I know what you're worried about. It doesn't matter. Since I promised to be your invincible faith, when you're in a bad situation, I'll cut through the thorns and thorns." Wang Lu said and then came to the door in high spirits. "Well, if there's any test, bring it on. I'll let you see the real skill of clearing the dungeon!"
Behind him, Aya somewhat helplessly shook her head and smiled, but her heart was gradually filled with warmth.
'Yes, although he always does things unexpectedly, but … perhaps I can really believe in him. I believe that he can help me rebuild my country and restore the glory of Brettonia. If it's him, he can certainly do it. '
With that thought in mind, Aya felt that her Heroic Spirit Physique had further solidified. The haze that was caused by Wang Lu's presumptuous decision was also dispelled. Well, although from a rational point of view, Wang Lu hasn't really convinced me, but … for the time being, I'll trust him for the time being.
However, Aya's impassioned words, which gradually warmed her heart, were met with silence from the stone door. The gray door was tightly closed, shutting out the group of challengers. Moreover, there was no sign of it opening.
Wang Lu gawked for a moment, unable to figure out why the door didn't open. He walked forward and knocked on the door. "Open the door, we're good people!"
No response.
"Open sesame?"
No response.
"Little rabbit, be good and open your legs?"
There was still no response, except for Aya angrily punching Wang Lu.
"That's strange." Wang Lu pondered. "Did we do something wrong? Or is there something wrong with the way we enter the door? It's not like we have to resort to violence as soon as we open the door, right? "
Aya said, "It's best not to try to break this door by force. I don't think that's a good idea."
Liu Li also added, "I also think it's better not to break the door."
Since the two people with the sharpest intuition said so, Wang Lu gave up the idea and turned his eyes back to the writing on the stone door.
"... Only when five people are united can we enter and reach the other side. Could it be this sentence? "Wang Lu said," Only when a team of five people can we continue to move forward, is there a problem with this sentence? But, even if we must gather five people to move forward, we have already gathered them. "
Liu Li curiously said, "Have you gathered them? Senior Brother, one for you, one for Aya, one for Little Bai, and one for Huahua, there are obviously four of them! "
Wang Lu looked at her as if he was looking at an unlucky naughty child. "Or, Liu Li, your IQ is no longer recognized in the human category?"
"…"
Having said that, Wang Lu certainly didn't think that Liu Li was really out of the human category. There were many times when this little girl was stupid and adorable, but at most, her brain lacked a few tendons. Correspondingly, her other tendons were exceptionally developed. Her memory and calculation ability were so strong that even he, the top student of Spirit Sword Sect, was dumbfounded.
If it wasn't Liu Li, then who was it? Wang Lu's first reaction was naturally Quan Zouhua. This mottled dog was the most different from the human standard. However, strictly speaking, there was no reason to exclude it from the team. First, as the highest level mythological beast, Huahua would transform into a human sooner or later. Although in the Western Continent mythology, there was no precedent of Fenrir transforming into a human, on Spirit Sword Mountain, the Elders of Heavenly Sword Hall believed that it was only a matter of time. Second, Western Continent and Nine Regions were different. The distinction between Chinese and Barbarian was not so strict, and the boundary between human and beast was also relatively vague. It must be known that most of the professions in Western Continent had the bloodline of strange beasts. For example, Aya was the inheritor of the dragon bloodline. And in the era of Golden King, this kind of hybridity was brought to the extreme. Some of the generals under the command of Golden King were magical beasts, and none of them had ever transformed into a human. So, what reason did this stone door have to shut Fenrir outside?
After thinking about it, this stone door was still closed, which was really hard to figure out.
And at this time, Liu Li suddenly said, "Ah, the stairs to come here are gone!"
Wang Lu looked back and sure enough, the shining stairs had faded and disappeared. The team was isolated in front of the stone door, in a small square.
"What should I do? I'm hungry. "Liu Li very decisively put forward the most realistic question.
It was not that she was gluttonous, but in the past three days, when she concentrated on making wine cups in the inn, she actually didn't eat anything. With her current physique, she indeed didn't need to eat. However, eating has become a habit, and it was more of a psychological dependence. Just like a smoker who hasn't smoked for three days, that kind of hunger and thirst was hard to resist.
Wang Lu still had some food in his mustard seed bag, so he threw a few meat pies to Liu Li, which made her smile. However, the current predicament was still a headache.
"Really troublesome, we can't just stand still in the second level. Not to mention with the composition of foodies in the team, sooner or later the food will run out. At that time, do I have to rely on my physical advantage of Non-Phase Method to infinitely squeeze out protein to maintain their survival? " Wang Lu's thoughts drifted, and soon, from the food storage problem to the agricultural breeding problem, he thought that if he brought the crop seeds, as well as breeding pigs and sheep, he could open up a small piece of farmland here to play with the Monogatari … Huh, breeding?
Wang Lu felt a flash of inspiration in his mind and suddenly understood the reason why the stone door was closed.
"So that's how it is. The reason why the number is not enough is because there is an overlap." Wang Lu said, walked to the front of the mottled dog, and then stretched out his foot to kick it.
"Damn, what are you doing?" The dog was sleeping sweetly, so being interrupted made its whole body uncomfortable.
"I'm looking for you to make up the number." With that, Wang Lu reached out his hand and touched the dog's head. In his Jade Mansion, a mark disintegrated.
That was the master-servant contract between Wang Lu and Quan Zouhua, which was now unilaterally lifted by Wang Lu.
Quan Zouhua felt that the shackles on its brain suddenly broke, and its whole body suddenly burst out with a bit of vitality, making it feel very comfortable. However, it didn't have the time to experience this. It hurriedly stood up. "Damn, do you want to casually abandon a small animal!?"
"Rest assured, I'll take care of your food." Wang Lu said, "I just need you to become an independent existence to make up the number of people."
Wang Lu thought that if the number of people was not recognized, the biggest possibility would be because of the contract between him and Quan Zouhua. Right now, as his pet, the stupid dog was attached to him. Naturally, it would not be recognized as an independent team, so there were actually only four of them.
However, as long as the stupid dog was released, with its qualification, how could it not count?
And sure enough, when the contract was lifted, the stone door soon opened with a rumbling vibration, revealing a deep and huge maze. A dangerous and mysterious aura hit them in the face.
The structure of the maze was breathtaking. Not long after the entrance corridor, in front of them, there was a sudden opening, showing infinite light. A bright and warm sun hung high in the sky. Not only did it not have the gloomy underground city corridor that made people despair, but instead, everything was directly revealed in front of them.
Under the clear sky, the open labyrinth was divided into countless small units. Some of the units were empty grasslands, some were deep forests, and some were pitch-black even though they were clearly illuminated by the sun.
These units were separated by space barriers. Although there was no brick or other fixed form material, it was more unbreakable than any brick and was difficult to break through with brute force. In front of everyone was a narrow corridor isolated by space barriers. In front of the corridor was the transmission entrance to the first unit.
"Aiyaya, the most troublesome transmission maze."
Wang Lu felt annoyed when he saw this scene. Among all the mazes, this kind of transmission maze was the most troublesome one based on complex space spells. Moreover, there was no telling how many sharp traps were arranged in each of the small units … This stage was similar to the first stage, but it was more like a test of the trial taker's patience.
"Unfortunately, when encountering this level, I am the most impatient type." Wang Lu coldly said and strode forward.
Aya curiously asked, "How are you going to be impatient?"
"Any maze has a common solution: Dig the wall, dig the ground!"
While speaking, he launched his original magical ability, and the bloody sky covered an area of a hundred feet.
