"Hello, do we know each other?" Tang Shidao was in a good mood and greeted her softly.
The linen-robed woman didn't say anything and just looked at him quietly.
She was very strange.
The person in front of her was obviously a rookie in refining, but he could reach the seventh level step by step? His expression was also different from before. Before, he was just calm and not scared by the competition conditions. Now, he was full of confidence, even more so than Evil Bone and Evil Blood.
This was the first time she saw him forging and she was sure that he was a rookie. How could he come here safely?
He was a human.
Why was he not affected by food for such a long time? Even if his body was strong, his spirit should be weaker.
Could it be that he had a transcendent bloodline that didn't need food, just like her?
Tang Shidao saw that the other party didn't say anything and didn't bother to ask.
He looked at the material table.
Surprisingly, this time it wasn't materials or parts, but a huge model. There were 10 castles, 20 watchtowers, 50 arrow towers, a continuous city wall, a wide square, a beautiful garden, and meticulous soldiers and civilians. The whole model was like a miniature of a small kingdom, only the scale was a little smaller.
There was a metal cube at the front with five words on it: Open it without any damage!
Tang Shidao touched it and tapped it lightly.
Then, in less than 20 seconds, he opened the metal cube without any damage. There was another piece of copper inside with the words: Disassemble the whole model without any damage. If a part is damaged, you will fail. Note: No matter which tower you start disassembling, the core parts will operate automatically. Every once in a while, a tower will collapse on its own. If you can't disassemble it before it collapses, the parts will be damaged. If you submit all the parts and succeed, you are allowed three chances of failure. The second time the model is completely different and can't be used as a reference. Good luck.
Seeing these messages, Tang Shidao was speechless.
The last three levels were really sinkholes.
This was obviously a team mode … Then the problem was that the people involved in the competition weren't necessarily a group of people. You had to have a team first.
On the other side.
The linen-robed woman saw how Tang Shidao disassembled the cube and understood: This was a master level.
She couldn't understand why Owl had changed so much, but this person had indeed made great progress.
The linen-robed woman didn't know much about refining, but she had good eyesight. As the saying goes, as long as you live long enough, you will definitely have seen a lot of things. The linen-robed woman was very knowledgeable. Looking at Tang Shidao's calm expression after reading the mission, the linen-robed woman was sure that this person was confident. At least, he did not completely give up like she did.
At this moment.
The linen-robed woman knocked on the crystal wall. When Tang Shidao turned around, she pointed downwards.
"Well, thank you for reminding me. I could tell they were fighting. The eighth level probably required martial arts or special methods, so they wouldn't be able to pass it in a short time. I'm not in a hurry, really. Even if they pass, I'll find a way to catch up and get rid of them. I'm a hunter. It's impossible for me to turn a blind eye to the mage. "Tang Shidao knew that the other party didn't want to talk, so he finished his words.
The linen-robed woman nodded and didn't say anything else.
She walked to the wall and knocked on it a few times. He found an extremely small gap and slowly reached out his hand. His palm quickly softened and seeped in like a stream of water. Gradually, her body also turned into flowing water, and she used this extremely small gap to squeeze out.
Tang Shidao was surprised.
No spells could be used in the Forbidden Land. This was 100% the power of the bloodline. What was even more strange was that Tang Shidao saw that the linen-robed woman's body under her clothes was transparent like water, but she still had a skeleton … Could it be that she could even control the deformation of her own bones?
Did he do it?
Did he turn his whole body into black flames and seep into the gap like a stream of water and leave this secret room? Or did he turn his whole body into solid sand and seep out of this space?
Not yet!
Whether or not he could do it in the future was still up for debate, at least not now.
The linen-robed woman left.
Tang Shidao sensed that she had really left. He didn't need to monitor too far. He understood that this kind of person didn't need to play tricks with him. If she wanted to come over, she could enter his secret room by just turning a corner. She had already 'lost' this competition. The reminder just now was equivalent to leaving the rest to him. There was no doubt that the other party also had the identity of a hunter and usually killed the mage.
From time to time, there were loud noises coming from the bottom left. Tang Shidao estimated that the battle was quite fierce.
He looked at the injuries of the skeletons.
Yes, that's right. Most of the amazing people died in the eighth level.
At this time, Tang Shidao didn't think too much about it, and he didn't want to try operating the model. The Evil Eye gave him three chances to fail, but Tang Shidao didn't want to use it a second time. Obviously, the difficulty of the seventh level was the sum of the previous levels. Exquisite craftsmanship, design, micro-fabrication, assembly, perfect matching, non-destructive embedding. From the materials to the components, from the components to the whole, this was a perfect comprehensive test.
Its difficulty was: Time limit!
Once the dismantling began, the activation began. Once the activation began, the destruction began.
It felt like you were carefully preparing to dismantle a delicate puzzle, but suddenly there was a voice beside you: The naughty child will arrive in 30 seconds! If you couldn't stop the naughty child in time, then your efforts would be in vain. If the mechanism didn't stop, it meant that there was more than one naughty child. Every ten seconds, one would arrive.
So.
If you had enough companions, it didn't matter. There was a chance.
If you didn't have any companions, then sorry, you had to protect the eagle and prevent a group of chicks from causing trouble.
Tang Shidao didn't test it first because he wanted to use the perfect strategy. Intuitively, if he didn't succeed the first time, he wouldn't get the perfect attack reward if he succeeded the second or third time. The Evil Eye was a perfectionist. You couldn't judge it with a normal person's mind. It was best to treat it as a madman. There was treasure in the beginning, and there was a hole in the middle. Now that it was the end … it was bound to be the perfect strategy.
Carefully inspecting the model, Tang Shidao tried to memorize every part.
It took him seven days to memorize the outer shell. He still didn't know how it worked inside.
At this time.
Tang Shidao began another kind of deduction. Slowly, a piece of solid flame condensed, slowly deformed, and slowly twisted into the shape of a model part. At this moment, Tang Shidao pushed his vision, hearing, and touch to the limit. He didn't dare to dismantle the model. He only used what he saw, what he heard, and what he touched to turn it into data. Then, he carefully copied a part that was exactly the same.
It was just one part. Tang Shidao corrected it for half a day before he could confirm that it was perfect.
At this point.
He still didn't dare to start dismantling it. Slowly, he began to copy the second part. The second part wasn't far away. It was right next to the first.
Just like that, he carefully tested it and made it with precision.
It took more than twenty days for Tang Shidao to copy the first "black tower." Comparing the position and adjusting the function, Tang Shidao found a very tricky thing. There were arrows on the arrow towers. When some kind of mechanism was activated, they would slowly wind up, and then there would be a "whoosh" sound. Very cleverly, there were soldiers next to the arrow towers.
Thinking about the soldiers who were pierced by arrows, it would be strange if they passed.
Fifty arrow towers were equal to fifty naughty children, and that didn't include whether the watchtowers and castles would open the giant crossbows to shoot at the "civilians." Even if they didn't shoot at civilians, they could shoot at flowers and plants … The word "no damage" would fly away.
Let the soldiers enter the tower and cut off the crossbows? Definitely not. A broken crossbow was also a kind of damage.
Let the soldiers and civilians avoid it? Still not. A crossbow shooting at the ground or city walls was a kind of damage. A broken arrow was also a kind of damage.
There was only one way.
Turn it off, or dismantle it before it could shoot.
He thought of this.
Tang Shidao also tried to dismantle the copied "black tower." After a few actions, Tang Shidao found that something was wrong. The structure of the arrow towers was very ridiculous. Some parts couldn't be stopped when they were "in operation." Once it was forcibly removed, the whole mechanism would go berserk and then collapse … It was the ultimate move of a naughty child.
He didn't dare to imagine.
Evil Eye must have had a lot of time on his hands to design such an intricate model to fool everyone.
Feeling that it was useless to guess, Tang Shidao also started to fight with Evil Eye. It took him more than a year to replicate the entire model using Solid Flame. During this time, Tang Shidao experienced unimaginable difficulties and twists. It was already difficult to copy a part with Solid Flame, but now he had copied hundreds of thousands of parts. It was already difficult to control a single arrow tower, but now he had combined ten castles, twenty watchtowers, and fifty arrow towers.
More importantly.
Solid Flame was weightless. It floated in the air. If one part didn't fit properly, the whole huge model would collapse.
He had worked hard to get to this point.
Tang Shidao felt that he had only taken the first step in a long journey … because this model could move! It was already very difficult to make the model, but to make it move was simply asking for his life. Once it moved, the ten castles, twenty towers, and fifty arrow towers would move. The soldiers and civilians on top would also move. Ordinary people would feel dizzy just by looking at it, let alone controlling so many things to move.
Suddenly.
Tang Shidao realized that this was not a battle between him and Evil Eye. This was a battle between himself and himself.
Either there would be a complete change in control and technology.
Or he would admit defeat in this battle, give up the pride of challenging Evil Eye, and admit that he was inferior to Evil Eye.
At this moment, should he kneel and call him father?
No!
Tang Shidao didn't care about winning the prize.
This was a competition between himself and himself. He was the master here!
He made up his mind.
Tang Shidao also began to practice. It was too difficult to control such a huge model to start the arrow towers or watchtowers. He started with the movement of the civilians. However, it was not easy. Soon, Tang Shidao realized that once the civilians moved, they would 'collide' with each other.
They were not living people.
They were puppets made of Solid Flame. They did not know how to dodge when they collided.
They moved by force. Once they collided, they would continue to move forward until both sides were smashed to pieces. Tang Shidao could control them to stop, but this was not the operation mode of the original mechanism. If he did not refer to the original mechanism, the experiment would be meaningless.
Two civilians were smashed to pieces. Tang Shidao relaxed his control a little, and soon the civilians were in a mess.
They crashed into people, horses, trees, walls, whatever they could.
In less than three minutes, the whole black model was a mess. Tang Shidao sighed softly and let it collapse. He silently calculated the mistakes he had made.
As expected.
The seventh level was not so easy.
It should not be too difficult to pass the level, but it was too difficult to perfect the strategy. This time, it was more difficult than perfect a family. This time, it was perfect a small country. Subconsciously, Tang Shidao estimated that this level was related to the next eight and nine levels. He did not want to finish it carelessly. The sound of fighting below was endless. The Inverse Mages were also trapped. He did not have to worry about them for the time being.
Because he was familiar with the control, Tang Shidao only took five days to rebuild the model.
Slowly.
He entered the second trial.
