first test(1/3)
The snowfield we are in is surrounded by the Arreat Mountains on all sides. According to my accurate calculations as a mathematician, the altitude should be about seven or eight thousand meters.
Fortunately, in the past half month, we have already become accustomed to the 10,000-meter-high snow mountain environment. When we come here, we feel that we can breathe easier. [bsp; It is probably the protection set up by King Arthur, although it is flatter and more open than the frozen tundra.
The plain area, but no monsters were found here, at least the three of us didn't see a single monster along the way.
This is probably one of the reasons why Alto1iya put away the artifact suit without any scruples, so that I don’t have to transform. Without putting on the artifact suit, Alto1iya’s strength is only around the mid-level in the pseudo-realm.
In the second world of Harrogath, if you are an ordinary adventurer, this kind of strength is definitely enough. Even in front of Baal's Throne of Destruction, you can walk around a few times and leave a sentence: After visiting here, your elegant body
And retreat.
But compared to Alto 1i Ya's trouble-attracting physique, the pseudo-domain intermediate level is far from enough.
It's even worse for me. If I don't transform and rely on Xiaoxue and the others, I may not be able to defeat the pseudo-domain level monsters.
The sadness of the body.
From the foot of the mountain to the destination, there is still some distance according to the map instructions, but there are no monsters blocking the way, and there are no uphills and downhills. The terrain of 11 square meters increased our speed by more than ten times.
If it weren't for Altoia's respect for King Arthur and the Twelve Knights, her determination to reach the destination one step at a time and accept the test, plus the she mentioned, I don't know where to start counting our group.
Overall strength, I really want to summon Xiaoxue and the others, each of them can ride on a ghost wolf and reach their destination in a matter of minutes.
It was another day's journey on foot. Because I had been here several times, Altoiya had a good grasp of time. After resting in place for a night, when we woke up the next day, we were already less than twenty miles away from our destination.
Enough to meet King Arthur's with full spirit.
"We've arrived."
As we were walking, Altoiya suddenly stopped and turned back to us.
"Huh?"
I'm also wondering. According to the distance we've traveled, we should be able to clearly see our destination even if we haven't arrived yet, but why...
Why can't I see anything?
In addition to the vast snow-white plains, where is the entrance? This is King Arthur's test. Even if a castle is not built here, the large mén opposite the hundred-meter-wide moat is inlaid with gems, "The Elf King's Test"
With the seven characters "Refining the Earth", there should at least be a breathtaking large space gate, a hundred meters high and dozens of meters wide, made of fine steel "heavy weight of 10,000 tons". On the left door, there is a magnificent holy angel carved on it.
As for the relief, the right door is engraved with a strange and gloomy picture of demons destroying the world. This is appropriate.
Then, we heard Altoia telling us that we had arrived at our destination.
It’s a scam, it’s too far from what I imagined.
Even if the princess of a country pointed to the front and told me that her home was right in front, I thought I could see a simple and magnificent castle. Unexpectedly, I was taken to a mud cave and saw a wet haystack sitting on it.
Above, the old king wears a straw ring on his head and clothes that don't cover his body.
,"Where?"
I looked around and saw
ou
Out of sight, I couldn't see anything except the snow, mountains and sky. Could it be that imaginary castle that only Altoia could see? I also plan to dig out the gems inlaid on the mén.
Damn it!!
, "Well... let me see..." Altoiya was also looking around with me, but she obviously had a clear direction. After a while, the light stopped somewhere, strode up, and stepped on it.
, then squatted down and began to peel away the snow on top.
Could it be that she was looking for an ant dong? I thought without complaining, but I still followed the footsteps of the queen’s wife, got together, and started digging together.
The skills we developed during digging in ice caves during this period came in handy. With our quick movements, a full meter of snow was quickly accumulated on the ground, and the stone surface gradually emerged.
Could the stone floor be an altar or something?
This time I guessed it right. With the help of Jieka and I, in a short while, a stone circular altar with an area of about ten square meters came out on the snow.
It's said to be an altar, but it's actually pretty simple. It's just made of some square stone slabs, slightly protruding from the ground about a finger's height. The magic circle on it is very simple. In addition to being flat, even if I want to praise it, the entire altar can't be praised.
I know what words to look for, but even after hundreds of thousands of years, I still can’t find any sense of ancient history and vicissitudes of life.
In the center of the altar, a stone pillar with a diameter of half a meter and a foot high protrudes. In the center of the stone pillar, there is a long and narrow gap, which seems to correspond to some kind of key switch. This is the entire altar.
"Fan, Jieluka, are you ready?" Altoiya asked us, standing beside the stone pillar in the center of the altar.
, "No problem, wait anytime, you should tell me first what will happen after opening this altar." I am a clever spirit, thinking of the possibility of King Arthur being evil and unscrupulous, I quickly stopped and I was full of confidence just now.
answer.
, "I'm not sure about this either. The way to enter the previous twelve tests is different each time. It probably depends on the random test.
"Altoiya shook his head.
"There's no problem..."
I'm speechless, King Arthur, what kind of room are you trying to make? It doesn't even have an entrance for people to live in.
"Then let's go out."
Altoia took a deep breath, pulled out the invisible sword of victory, and glanced at Jeluka and me one by one with a confident smile.
"There will be no problem this time."
I smiled back, and Jieluka bent down slightly and saluted, her eyes showing rare seriousness and confidence.
With a crisp sound of "clang", Altoiya turned around and without hesitation thrust the sword of victory in his hand into the gap in the center of the stone pillar. It was neither big nor small. The invisible blade was just like that.
"Like a key" completely fell into the gap for the rest of the length.
Then, Altoiya held the hilt of the sword and twisted it slightly. Following Altoiya's movements, the stone pillar rotated ninety degrees, making a roar and embedding movement somewhere.
After completing a series of actions, Altoiya immediately pulled out the sword of victory, and the three of them looked around to see what changes had occurred.
"It seems like nothing... Wow!!!!"
Before I could finish speaking, a dark hole suddenly cracked under my feet on the solid stone slab of the altar." I was caught off guard and fell down.
From the peripheral vision, at the moment I fell, a dark hole also opened under the feet of Altoiya and Jieluka, and they fell together with me.
Even Jie 1u, who possesses advanced strength in the pseudo-realm, couldn't react and fell down. There must be something weird about the cave that suddenly appeared from under his feet.
The unknown tunnel seemed to be connected to another space. It was pitch black, and I could only feel my body falling downwards. After the initial shock, I calmed down.
It's impossible to throw us to death at the entrance anyway.
Sure enough, after the body fell for a few seconds, a faint light of fire came from below. With my keen eyesight, I found that I was about to hit the ground. I quickly turned over, adjusted my posture, and did a difficult mid-air jump of 6.
Perfect!!
With one knee and two hands on the ground, I cushioned the momentum of my fall. I patted my cloak and stood up in an unusually calm and relaxed manner.
Before my knees were straightened, there was a dull thud from the side. When I looked back, I saw that it was Altoia, who was also holding her arms gracefully, and his eyes immediately turned towards me.
Judging from the situation, the tunnel that appeared under our feet did not separate the three of us. Well, where is the dirty joke shinv?
As soon as this thought passed through my mind, the black shadow of Congtianerjiang threw me to the ground.
"Safe 6."
Jieluka stood up from the ground, patted her clothes calmly, and made a victory gesture.
"Answer your sister!!"
Lying on the ground in a large font, I turned my head and shouted loudly at Jieluka who looked as if nothing had happened.
This guy, who is obviously the strongest among the three of them, just landed on me and almost broke my fragile waist. He must have done it on purpose, you bastard!!!
"I'm very sorry, Your Majesty King Ji." It seemed that he just noticed me at this time, Jieluka apologized calmly.
"Do you think I will forgive you if you say I'm sorry?"
I wish I could transform into Godzilla, spit out a mouthful of fire from the tip of my tongue, and speak with bared teeth and claws.
"Your Highness must have heard wrong. I didn't say sorry, so please forgive me."
"That's weird, and the attitude is even worse. I will never forgive you!!"
"Ahem."
Altoiya coughed lightly at the side, and her smile under the dim firelight became more gentle.
"This is not the first time I want to say that the relationship between Jieluka and Fan is really good."
"Is there such a thing? We were clearly quarreling just now." I thought to myself that something was wrong, and turned back to face Altoiya, laughing, and entered the mode of pretending to be stupid.
"I'm not sure either. Grandpa Lyman said that sometimes quarrels are also a sign of good feelings. I didn't really understand this sentence before, but after seeing Fan and Jieluka, I suddenly agreed."
Elder Lehmann, don’t teach Altoiya these little common sense that are not important to the king. Aren’t there many other things that can be taught and must be taught?!
I laughed so hard that I was sweating profusely.
"Let's take a look around first. We seem to have arrived at the point." One of Wu's unique skills is to change the subject without leaving any trace.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, they attracted everyone's attention, even I thought it should be the case.
The three of them began to investigate around.
What should I say here? It's a bit like the environment in Lu Gaoyin's ancient tomb. Above and below the walls, there are square passages made of unknown stones. The two walls are neatly lined with dim magic lamps, spreading all the way.
