"Thirty people are no problem. I can definitely draw them out. In fact, not all of them are my militiamen on the city wall. Wang Shi's people are now gradually understanding that many people have expressed their desire to join the militia..."
"Because their level has also increased, they showed great bravery by killing those Closing Monkeys today. People are always affected by the environment, and they change little by little..."
"They used to be timid and wanted safety. Now that they know safety, they have to fight and fight for it themselves..."
"Since this is the initiative, you should accept them all and don't be polite to them. Our territory now has a lot of basic resources. It doesn't matter how many trees we cut down, but our combat strength is still a bit weak..."
"I think so too, Lord, then I will find Wang Shi later and incorporate those people into my militia..."
"Okay, you can go ahead and remove 30 people who are well rested and energetic..."
"What do you want to do, lord, do you want me to follow you..."
"There is no need for you to look after the territory here. This is our foundation. We must not make any mistakes. I want these people because I want to conquer the third floor of the Black Tower..."
"It's dark outside now, and we don't know the situation outside, but I don't want to waste time. I want to take advantage of the night time to take the brothers to the third floor of the Black Tower to see if there is anything good there. By the way.
You can also practice your level,..."
"You also know that as the militia and the rest of us have leveled up, there is basically no experience gained on the first floor of the black tower, and the harvest on the second floor is not ideal, so I want to go to the third floor to have a look...
"
"Well, Lord, I actually want to follow you to the third floor to have a look, but this territory really cannot be separated from me. Let's do this, I will mobilize the manpower for you right away. Soon, we will be at the door of the first floor of the Black Tower
Gather for you,..."
"Okay!...This is good,..."
Zhou Zhenghao was very happy with Ren Dong's arrangement, and he went back immediately.
Knocked on the door of the wooden house waiting for Shuanggun.
Just after knocking twice, the sound of two gunshots came from inside.
"Who is it?..."
"It's me, Zhou Zhenghao..."
Zhou Zhenghao directly said his name, and immediately thought of Shuangqiang Hou and the sound of getting up. Soon, the door of the wooden house opened,
"Lord, just come in directly. Why else knock on the door? What's the matter?..."
"That's it, are you tired?..."
"Isn't it tiring? If we have something to do, we'll go to work. If nothing happens, we'll rest..."
Shuangqiang Hou still behaves like an old man. He has long been accustomed to any emergencies. He can fall asleep when nothing happens, and he can be energetic immediately when something happens.
"That's good. I want to go to the third floor of the Black Tower. I've asked Ren Dong to mobilize 30 people. If you're not tired, come with me. Also call the others,..."
"Because we don't know what kind of monsters we will encounter on the third floor of the black tower, but they will definitely be stronger than the water monsters on the second floor..."
"That's it! No problem,..."
Shuangqiang agreed and rushed to the wooden house next to him. Soon Hainiu, Sun Shuang, and Han Xingfa, the fixed group of five people, gathered together.
Now when these people hear about killing monsters, their eyes light up, especially Han Xingfa, who has a vague tendency to be a leveling maniac.
As soon as he arrived here, he shouted to Zhou Zhenghao,
"Is the lord finally going to conquer the third floor of the Black Tower of the Abyss? I have long said that we should conquer there as soon as possible. After killing these monsters, we will have very little experience. I will definitely be able to level up two more levels on the third floor of the Black Tower..."
He said it enthusiastically. In fact, there was one person in this small team who was more eager to kill those monsters than he was.
It was the one-eyed girl Sun Shuang, with a longing expression in one eye and her hands ready to move.
"Okay, since everyone is so energetic, let's take advantage of the night time outside the territory to conquer the third floor of the Black Tower. In this case, we will review the situation tomorrow morning and make other plans..."
"no problem!……"
Under the leadership of Zhou Zhenghao, the small team quickly reached the door of the first floor of the black tower, where 30 militiamen were already standing neatly.
Seeing Zhou Zhenghao coming, he quickly came up to say hello.
"Lord, the captain just told us that we should follow the lord to conquer the third layer of the abyss. Are there any monsters there that are powerful or not?..."
"Haha, you are asking this. I didn't even open the door on the third floor. How do I know what's inside? But I think it must be more powerful than the monsters on the second floor. Everyone, be prepared and bring all the equipment you should bring, especially
It's cooking. Each person should bring at least five sets. If there are not enough, go to the warehouse to replenish them immediately..."
Listening to Zhou Zhenghao's words, these militiamen were busy for a while, checking their equipment.
Their current standard equipment is the crossbow machete.
This is what everyone needs to carry. In addition, some carry police shields, some carry an iron spear as a spear, and some carry refractors.
Basically, those who carry recurve bows no longer need to carry crossbow swords. They are assigned feather arrows, which have stronger attack power and greater damage.
In addition, of course, there is a full set of dishes.
Including Dali Wan, Agile Wan, Shrimp Soup and Steamed Crab.
"Okay, Lord, we are ready..."
After getting ready, Zhou Zhenghao didn't waste any time and led people directly into the first floor of the black tower.
The sun is still shining brightly on the first floor of the black tower, with the big sun hanging overhead. Zhou Zhenghao is already used to it.
After successfully passing the first floor of the Black Tower, he looked at the screen and found that according to their brisk walking speed, the first floor of the Black Tower took 20 minutes.
Then came the second floor of the black tower. He still said
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Walk forward at the original speed, and when you reach the end of the second floor, the iron gate on the third floor,
He checked the time again and it was almost the same as the first floor. It also took more than twenty minutes.
From this point of view, the area of ​​the first and second floors should be the same.
This makes no sense, but Zhou Zhenghao just surveyed it out of habit.
When he came to the door on the third floor, Zhou Zhenghao took out the key. This key was exploded for the first time when killing the water monster. It has never been exploded since.
This key is a one-time item,
As long as it is used, the key will disappear when the door is opened, and the door will be open forever, allowing free passage, and there will be no need for a key in the future.
"Are you ready?..."
When Zhou Zhenghao opened the door, he asked.
Everyone nodded in response to the double gun attack, each holding the weapon in his hand, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Not to mention them, Zhou Zhenghao himself is also looking forward to it very much. What exactly is in the third floor of the black tower?
Zhou Zhenghao approached the stone door with the key in his hand and got a prompt box.
It shows above,
[To explore the third floor of the Black Tower, you need a key. Are you sure you want to use the key? 】
Of course sure.
Zhou Zhenghao, clicked to confirm, and the key disappeared. The iron lock on the iron door "crash!..." fell to the ground with a sound, turned into a ball of light, and disappeared.
Without hesitation, Zhou Zhenghao moved forward and pushed the door inwards. It was dark inside.
However, the light from the second floor can shine through, and I can vaguely see a staircase inside. It turns out to be a spiraling upward staircase...
This is not unexpected, but what is a little surprising is that the light in this staircase is a bit dark, because when leading from the first floor to the second floor, the light from the first floor can penetrate, and the light from the second floor can also penetrate.
,
The entire staircase was not dark, but this staircase was very dim. Zhou Zhenghao was slightly stunned for a moment...,
Are the stairs very long? The sun cannot reach the third floor.
Seeing this deep tunnel, like a monster's throat, Zhou Zhenghao hesitated for a moment...,
At this time, Han Xingfa directly threw a fireball out and floated far up the steps.
With his fireball, he could see clearly that it was not that the steps were high, but that there was a stone door on the opposite side of the steps.
Lock this place tightly.
"Ah, why is there another door?..."
Han Xingfa blurted out.
Zhou Zhenghao was relieved when he saw another stone gate. It wasn't just some monster.
Then Shuangqiang took out a torch from his backpack and lit it. He actually carried a few of these, and they came in handy at this time.
Holding torches, everyone walked forward, with their guns waiting for the first one, and Zhou Zhenghao behind.
Walking up the steps, Zhou Zhenghao quickly reached the stone gate. This was indeed a stone gate, different from the iron gate below.
It feels cold to the touch and a little damp.
Zhou Zhenghao, under the light of the torches held by his two guns, pushed outwards with both arms. Originally, he was just pushing tentatively, but who knew that the stone door actually opened outwards with a "squeak!..."
A ray of light flickered in from the crack in the door, shining directly on Zhou Zhenghao's eyes.
This sudden light dazzled Zhou Zhenghao's eyes, and he quickly covered his eyes with his hands.
He paused for more than a second to adapt to the light outside. At this time, the stone door had been pushed open by him, leaving a gap as wide as his palm.
Through the gap, Zhenghao had already opened his eyes to the bright light outside, and saw a scene that made his jaw drop.
Everyone was stunned.
Seeing Zhou Zhenghao's expression, several people standing next to him were also anxious. They stretched out their hands and pushed the entire stone door open. The stone door made a heartbreaking "squeaking..." sound.
It gradually opened, and everyone saw the scene in front of them,
Almost instantly, these people seemed to have been struck by lightning. They stood there dumbfounded, watching the incredible scene in front of them...
There are no monsters outside the three-story door of the Black Tower. There are no monsters outside the stone door.
It was completely different from what they imagined. They thought there would be ferocious monsters waiting for them outside, but it was not the case. Instead, there were densely packed people kneeling all over the ground...
They rubbed their eyes and confirmed again and again that there was nothing wrong. There were indeed people kneeling on the ground outside.
These people are kowtowing to them devoutly...
In front of these people was a broken wooden table. This was a typical square table, a bit like a black shop tower, the table used to entertain guests.
But there are no chairs next to it, and there are three huge basins on the table...,
In the first basin is a pig's head, in the second basin is a whole chicken, and in the third basin is a sheep's head.
In addition, there is a small incense burner in front of these three basins, with three incense sticks inserted...,
Now these three incense sticks are lit, and curls of green smoke are rising.
"What's going on?..."
No matter how much he thought about it, Zhou Zhenghao could not imagine that he would be like this when he opened the door on the third floor of the Black Tower. This was obviously some kind of worship ceremony.
And the objects of worship are actually people like myself,
What the hell is going on?
"Ah, the door god, the door god finally appeared,..."
At this time, the kneeling person finally realized that the door had been opened, and several people walked out of the door.
The first one is of course Zhou Zhenghao.
At this time, those people kneeling opposite them immediately
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There was an exclamation, and then they kowtowed more piously, hitting the head hard on the ground, making a banging sound,
When Zhou Zhenghao saw these people, there was blood on his forehead.
"Hey, what do you do?..."
Zhou Zhenghao asked. Unexpectedly, the reaction of those on the opposite side was even stronger. They all knelt on the ground trembling in fear, with their heads stuck between their knees, and they did not dare to lift up.
"Hey, let me ask you something..."
Zhou Zhenghao is not used to them. Although these people kneeling and looking outside are people, who knows whether they are real people or not. What the hell is going on?
This is simply even weirder than the A-level weird scene I participated in.
"Door!...Lord Door God!..."
At this time, the person kneeling at the front raised his head tremblingly, his face full of fear.
Even Zhou Zhenghao could see that sweat was breaking out on his forehead. The blood that was coming out of his forehead had already flowed down his cheeks, making this guy look a little scary.
"Why are these Lords so thin? And their clothes are so ragged..."
Shuangqianghou was nearby at this time, frowning at this reminder, and Zhou Zhenghao also noticed it.
These people are simply worse than beggars. Not only are their clothes in rags, but their faces are black and covered with dirt. The key is that they are as skinny as firewood.
Just like a beggar who hasn't had enough to eat for more than ten days.
"The situation is unclear now, everyone should be careful..."
Zhou Zhenghao didn't dare to be careless at all. It was possible for anything weird to happen on the third floor of the Black Tower.
At this time, the person who spoke first saw Zhou Zhenghao and several others whispering, and his face became even more nervous, and he quickly explained.
"Master Door God, we sincerely serve you. We don't have any ill intentions. We just pray to Master Door God to bless us and leave this ghost place..."
"Oh, what does this mean? Please explain in detail..."
Zhou Zhenghao heard a slightly different plot from this guy's words.
Everyone saw that Zhou Zhenghao's expression softened and seemed relieved, but he still knelt on the ground and said to Zhou Zhenghao with his head raised.
"I am the village chief of Luoyin Village, and my name is Wang Yijia. Our Luoyin Village is a village abandoned by God. There is no hope and no food here. We suffer from hunger all year round..."
"Furthermore, there are terrifying demonic insects outside our village, which often invade our village, dragging away and eating the children in our village. But God still left us a divine will, allowing us to come to this stone gate to offer sacrifices every year
,…”
"As long as we can move the door god and this stone door will open automatically, then the door god coming out of it can lead us out of the sea of ​​suffering..."
"Who made up this plot?..."
Zhou Zhenghao couldn't help but frown after hearing this. He now vaguely knew what was going on on the third floor of the black tower. This was probably a reward floor.
As for whether it was true, he still needed to verify it carefully.
"Yeah?……"
Zhou Zhihao showed a questioning expression, and Wang Yijia immediately kowtowed twice in fear, "Bengbeng!..." Zhou Zhenghao felt pain for him.
"Of course, door god, you must not question our piety. We come here every year to hold sacrificial ceremonies for thousands of years. Our ancestors have lived here for generations..."
"Every year on this day we come here to give you our best tribute..."
After saying this, he pointed at the broken table. Zhou Zhenghao took one look at it and almost vomited.
This is your best tribute. This is your mother's pig's head. And that little chicken, which is so skinny that there is only two ounces of meat. Not to mention the sheep's head.
I couldn't help but complain in my heart.
"I'm not a door god. Even if I were a door god, if you sacrificed me like this, I wouldn't save you..."
"Yes,……"
The guy kneeling on the ground looked at the three sacrifices on the table with greedy eyes, and even swallowed his saliva subconsciously.
It seems that in his eyes, these three things are indeed the best delicacies.
Zhou Zhenghao also saw at this time that there were many people kneeling behind him. At this time, many people raised their heads and secretly looked at the three tributes on the table.
It seems that these people have been hungry for a long time.
Before Zhou Zhenghao could speak, he heard his stomach growling one after another.
"What's going on? Don't you have anything to eat here?..."
Zhou Zhenghao raised his head and looked into the distance. Only then did he have the opportunity to look at the entire third floor of the black tower.
The third floor of this black tower is the same as the first two floors. There is a huge moon sun hanging in the sky. When the sunlight shines down, there is a small mountain village faintly in the distance.
There are some trees and hilly areas around, and in this small mountain village, two pieces of farmland can be faintly seen.
"Don't mention it, Lord Door God, this place is simply hell. Let alone food, it would be nice if we could take a bite of tree bark. Many people have started to eat dirt..."
"How is that possible? Didn't I see that you have two pieces of farmland there? Are you all too lazy not to sow seeds..."
"How can we be lazy? We sow seeds every year, but almost every year there is no harvest. We don't even have any seeds now..."
"Why are you so miserable?..."
"There are countless demonic insects outside our place. Those demonic insects are so terrifying. They will not only devour our villagers, but also eat all the crops we grow..."
"Devil bugs?... Are the devil bugs you are talking about the same as the devil bugs I know?..."
