Chapter 682 [Puppets](1/2)
"Okay!"
Adam's voice sounded from the back of the screen, and at the same time, the screen suddenly appeared on the originally confused screen.
A pure white earth and the sky stands a lonely small door.
Chen smiled, nodded with satisfaction, and raised his foot forward.
The moment his body touched the screen, a wave of water appeared on the screen. But this time it was completely different from Adam.
The body part that passed the screen did not disappear, but appeared on the other side of the screen as if it was passing through a water curtain.
"How is it, I'm still very awesome!"
When Chen passed the screen, Adam stretched out his hand and took Chen's hand with a smile, with an expression on his face waiting for praise.
"Yes, it's faster than I thought. These people from Zero City did a really good job." Chen touched Adam's head: "But they probably didn't expect that the first thing you did after so much effort was to break the core defense of Zero City for me."
"It's the second one!" Adam pouted in dissatisfaction: "I've calculated the time and location of the escape passage for Gibbs before!"
"So it's you?" Chen was slightly surprised, but his expression immediately returned to normal: "Okay, it's good to be the second one. Let's go in."
"Yeah!" Adam jumped forward, reached out and opened the door, waved to Chen: "Come in!"
Chen followed Adam into the door.
The door was pitch black. Before Chen could see everything around him clearly, a cold and sharp claw had already fallen to his face.
At the same time, countless shrill tragic roars also resounded around him.
Just as the sharp claw was about to touch Chen's face, it suddenly stopped in the air.
Chen's finger stood up in front of him, holding back the sharp claw's wrist.
A ferocious ghost roared and danced, but he could not touch Chen's body.
"It's really a bad thing. This level... was set by Gabrie?" Chen frowned and swept his eyes around.
The environment here is gloomy, but it is not completely without light.
Directly in front of the two men was a mountain with rugged rocks. On the top of the mountain, a red light was flashing slightly.
From the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, countless dense shadows are gathering.
There are various strange evil spirits, or walking zombies with blurred faces and festering bodies, or wandering souls floating in the air with uncertainty in reality.
There are also spots of ghost fire, floating around in it.
"It's very direct." Looking at the red light on the top of the mountain, Chen smiled: "I don't like to go around the corner. As long as I can reach the top of the mountain, I can get the key. It seems that it is Gabrie's work."
After saying that, he lit up his fingers, and the evil ghost in front of him was shaken away by the golden light and turned into ashes.
Then Chen reached out and grabbed Adam and walked towards the mountain step by step.
The evil ghosts and souls around them seemed to smell the bloody sharks, and rushed towards Chen frantically, but the golden light on Chen's body spread rapidly, forming a circle of light golden covers around him.
The evil ghosts and souls just rushed to five meters away from Chen's body, touched the light shield, and immediately moaned in pain, and then immediately dissipated in the air.
From beginning to end, Chen's steps did not stop at all. He just held Adam's hand, walked to the foot of the mountain, and then walked up to the mountain.
There is no road on this mountain, and there are rugged rocks everywhere. However, Chen's steps on it seemed like he was stepping on the plain.
"Are you afraid?" Chen turned his head and looked at Adam.
"Of course I'm not afraid." Adam looked at Chen with a smile: "I know they can't hurt me, why are you afraid? Chen, don't you... do you know?"
"I thought you would be like other children." Chen smiled.
"I'm not an ordinary child!" Adam pouted and hummed.
"Of course." Chen nodded.
Not long after, the two of them had already reached the middle of the mountain, not far from the red light on the top of the mountain.
A roar that was even more shocking from afar suddenly sounded, and rocks flew. A big hole was directly broken on the mountainside. A giant beast dozens of meters tall stood up from the mountain, closed its hands, bent down and smashed heavily at Chen and Adam.
"Is the last one? It's interesting." Chen smiled faintly, and did not let its fist hit him anymore, but instead drew an arc in front of him with his right hand.
An arc of light cut on the giant beast, and black blood splashed out. The giant beast did not even wail, but fell heavily on the mountainside, and two pieces of body rolled towards the foot of the mountain.
"Let's go, let's get the keys." The final threat had been cleared, and Chen pulled Adam step by step to the top of the mountain.
A red light shining on the top of the mountain was a crystal the size of a head, round and translucent. Under the flashing red light, you can see a quaint key hidden in the center of the crystal.
Chen stretched out his finger and gently tapped the crystal ball. The crystal ball automatically separated from the middle and fell to both sides, while the key slowly floated up and landed in Chen's palm.
After the key was held by Chen, both the evil ghosts and the ghosts disappeared in an instant, and even the top of the mountain under the feet of the two men turned into an endless white earth.
And another door appeared in front of the two.
"Relaxed and happy." Chen picked up the key and blew it gently on his lips, making a slight buzzing sound.
"Okay! Let's continue! There are two doors left, so we can go out!" Adam also cheered and grabbed the door handle in front of him.
Chen smiled slightly and inserted the key into the door in front of him.
...
"Are you finally... finished?"
Nicole looked at the end of the passage, a heavy treasure chest on the ground.
The maze is really big, and it is not a flat structure. The two followed Zero and went up and down dozens of stairs of different lengths and curved corridors before finally reaching the end.
Aside from the treasure chest, an umbrella stood.
An ancient umbrella with a bamboo handle on the surface of the oil cloth.
"Is it...that old guy?" Tian Lie frowned slightly.
"Who?" Nicole looked at him.
"A legendary character. A legend that only a few awakened people know. It's normal that you haven't heard of it." Tian Lie smiled: "I just didn't expect that he actually has something to do with Lingcheng. OK, stop talking nonsense. I'll say Ling, what should we do next? Open this box?"
"Yes." Zero nodded: "I can guide you, but I don't have the authority to touch the objects here in person. You have to do this yourself."
Nicole nodded and walked forward to open the box, but Tianlie pushed it with his shoulder and knocked it away.
"What are you doing?" Nicole glared at Tianlie.
Tianlie grabbed Nicole and looked indifferent: "Can I like to open the box?"
Nicole rolled her eyes and looked at Tianlie lifting the box.
The box is quite large, but it contains only a small key.
"That's the thing?" Tian Lie held it in his hand and shook it disdainfully.
The moment he picked up the key, the maze around him suddenly disappeared, and only one door was left in front of the two of them.
"Open it. We don't have much time." Zero reached out to the door and made a gesture of asking for help.
Tian Lie inserted the key into the keyhole, turned around, and the door opened with a click.
Outside the door, a white light shone in.
Tianlie walked into the door without any hesitation.
Outside the door is a square, with the ground covered with bluestone bricks. Around the square, there are endless clouds and mists, and the sight cannot be penetrated.
On both sides of the door, dozens of people stood in two rows.
To be precise, it is not a real "people".
Each of them wore the same coarse robe, and their hands and faces exposed outside the robe were like knives and axes, revealing the texture of the wood.
This is a group of puppets!
Each puppet has a long sword around its waist. There is no decoration on its quaint scabbard, and even the hilt is just a thick wood as it is the body.
On the ground between the two rows of puppets, there is a circle drawn by red lines, with a radius of about ten meters.
As soon as Tian Lie poked his head out of the door, the puppets immediately turned their heads in unison and looked at Tian Lie, but their bodies did not move at all.
"Is there a fight finally going to have to do this level?"
Tianlie pinched his fist, clattered, and turned to look at the Zero who came out: "Is it a one-on-one fight or a group fight?"
"All of them, neither are they." Zero shook his head: "There are a total of puppets here. Standing in the red circle, they will enter the red circle in order and fight you. One person for the first time, two for the second time, four for the third time, and so on. There are thirty-one puppets here, so you have to challenge five rounds to win and get the key to open the second door."
"So troublesome?" Tianlie laughed: "Why don't you just come up together?"
"Don't think it's easy." Zero said lightly: "Do you think it's so easy to block others from entering my core firewall?"
"It's simple or not, just try it?" Tianlie strode forward, turned to look at Nicole: "You, stand there and don't move."
"Why?" Nicole sneered.
"Because I'm afraid you will die." Tian Lie stopped and shrugged: "You lost to me in the previous bet. You owe me an agreement to join Chen Xiaolian's team. You can't die before it is completed."
"Lost to you?" Nicole's brows stood up: "When did I lose to you? The war tiger and the phoenix didn't fight at all!"
"They are not. But... haven't they both fought with Chen Xiaolian?" Tian Lie stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Nicole: "If I remember correctly, that Zhan Hu fell down, right?"
"How can this count!" Nicole's face turned red with anger: "You are simply a mess!"
