"Be careful, little ghost. Go back to the necklace first."

Seeing that I was in the Hatred Cage, I didn't dare to underestimate the enemy. I and the ghost wolves were fine, but the little ghost was still quite dangerous in a place like this, and I couldn't let her wander around.

The difficulty level here should be on the same level as the Chaos Refuge in the Demon Fortress. After all, the model worker is also one of the three demon gods, so the ostentation cannot be small.

Chaos Sanctuary has the most powerful Forgotten Knight, the Flame Brother, the Demon King, and the Stormcaster who always walks through walls to scare people. The combination of these three monsters is disgusting.

The Cage of Hatred is not to be outdone. Although it does not have absolutely powerful monsters like the Forgotten Knight, the several main monsters in it can also make people complain endlessly and make them regret not having two more legs to run faster.

Similarly, there are three main types of monsters here, one of which is the Undead Styx Doll. I have also encountered this kind of annoying monster when I went to experience it in the skinning cellar with Vilas and the others, and when I was with the pornographic maid during the crystal fragment incident.

monster.

They look like dwarfs. To be precise, they should be the skeletons of dwarfs, because these guys were originally failed products of the dwarf wizards when they resurrected the dwarfs. They are products of instability and are like time bombs.

Such a seemingly fragile dwarf skeleton holds a spear in its hand. It inherits the dwarf's advantages of running and attacking quickly. The attack power is even higher than that of the dwarf, and it is the same as the dwarf. Often.

Appear in groups.

Being able to create a monster like the Immortal Styx Doll, the dwarf wizard has accomplished a great feat. These failures are more than twice as powerful as real dwarfs.

This is not what adventurers fear most. What makes people gnash their teeth the most is that these undead Styx dolls will explode with bone cracks in their bodies after death. They are extremely powerful and can easily cause huge casualties when encountering the Forgotten Knight.

You can't win, and you still have the possibility of running away, but when you encounter these extremely fast immortal Styx dolls, they can chase you to the ends of the earth.

In addition to the most annoying undead Styx doll, the other two monsters are the Blood King, the final form of the exiles that appears in the Rogge area, and the Udalmon, the final form of the big stupid beast that appears in the Western Kingdom area.

The King of Blood has three skills: Fireball, Fire Wall, and Meteorite, as well as the extremely fast attribute. Needless to say, how disgusting it is. Udalmon is known as the mage killer. Their attacks can cause dizziness, especially for enemies.

A mage with a weak constitution is even more accurate with every strike, and the stun rate is as high as over half.

If a wizard is attacked by several Udal beasts, and there are no teammates around to rescue him, he may not even be able to use his skills, and he will be knocked to death while being stunned.

Whether it is the Blood King or the Ulda Beast, their respective first-order bodies played the role of one of the most powerful and troublesome monsters in the original Rogge area and the Western Kingdom area. Now these two

All kinds of monsters gathered together, and the most troublesome undead Styx doll in the third world, formed a powerful barrier in the hatred cage. I don’t know how many adventurers fell here with hatred, and even the three demon gods didn’t look like anything.

Can be seen.

Recalling in our hearts the news about the Cage of Hatred that we had heard in the bar, we carefully explored inside, passing through gates and corridors one after another, and under the dim torch light, we saw the gold-inlaid

The ornate stone pillars and embossed walls are stained with blood and palm prints. The altars are filled with piles of bones and pools of blood. No one knows how many people have fallen here, leaving behind so many regrets, unwillingness, and resentments.

shocking.

The name Cage of Hatred is very appropriate.

After walking for a while, we still didn't encounter any monsters, so we started to get confused. Even the saint with a photographic memory in the necklace looked troubled.

Because the buildings here are intricate, there is no pattern at all, and they are so similar that there is no way to confirm whether you have been to this place before.

Continue to use the method of marking? It doesn't work here. The reason why it works in Cui Fanke is because Cui Fanke is not a maze terrain in the first place. It is not as complicated as the Hatred Cage. It is easy to find the correct path with the elimination method of marking.

As for the Hatred Cage, it should be said that it is the first floor of the Hatred Cage. The sight here is dim, and it is easy to miss the signs. There are so many twists and turns, and you don’t know how much you have to do. Don’t get confused by the time.

Another way is to walk along the edge. This is the simplest way to solve the maze. Although it is a bit circuitous, a bit clumsy, and wastes a lot of time, it is very effective.

But this method doesn’t work. The prerequisite for walking along the edge is that the entrance must be on the edge, and the exit must also be on the edge. I don’t know if the entrance on the second floor is in which room on the edge, but I figured it out.

, we have just entered the entrance of the Cage of Hatred, it is not at the very edge, there are rooms all around.

If not, the clever adventurers would not have spent so much energy, and they would not have found a quick and easy way to the third floor of the Hatred Cage. They could only fumble around based on their previous experience in the maze.

But...

I laughed a few times, and under the torch, I took out a scroll that I had prepared.

The map of the prison of hatred given to me by the pornographic maid!

Just like Doraemon taking out props from his pocket, I took out a handful in my arms and raised the scroll high.

As long as I have this map, I will be invincible, hahahaha!

Let me see, let me see...

I muttered a dirty joke in my heart: Maid, I love you so much. I hummed a proud tune and spread the scroll on the ground.

Then, the whole person was stunned.

"That little elf maid, you really can't underestimate it." The little ghost poked his eyes out from the necklace, glanced at the map, and sighed in admiration, as if giving a thumbs up to the other party: Good shot!

On the scroll, there is no intricate map. There are only a few beautiful characters.

【Don't love me, you will get hurt】.

"Bastard, bastard. Bastard, bastard, bastard..." I burst into tears and kept hammering on the wall.

Pornographic maids and the like are the most annoying.

"Hey, there seems to be a string of small characters in the lower right corner." As expected of Her Majesty the Saint, who has a sharp gaze, she discovered something that ordinary people cannot detect at a glance.

I quickly put my eyes to the lower right corner of the map: "Let me see. Let me see, it says [If you want the truth to appear, you need to smear on the map with a strange liquid], great, I knew that

The dirty maid will not abandon me easily."

After reading it, I found that I fell in love with that little maid who made people both angry and loved again.

As expected of someone who engages in intelligence, he actually did it so covertly. I remember that I had seen such a trick before. As long as a piece of seemingly ordinary white paper was soaked in some liquid, the invisible text inside would appear.

Speaking of which, what exactly is this strange liquid? Hun Dan! It’s time to tell me clearly!

"It must be that kind of thing." The little ghost said solemnly.

"Could it be that... is it true?" I swallowed hard. I was struggling between the choice between being lost and being moral.

"As long as I think about the character of that elf maid, this is the only possibility."

"That's true...but it's still very shameful."

"Shame? What is Xiaofan talking about?"

"Isn't it shameful?"

"Of course I'm not ashamed. There's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Your shame point is too high!"

"This has nothing to do with shame."

"Wait, pause for a moment, it's best to confirm, are the answers we think of the same thing? I'll count one, two, three, and announce the answer together, one, two, three."

"[Beep] Liquid."

"water."

The little ghost and I said in unison, and then we were both stunned.

"Don't... don't look at me with such pity! Why is the answer water? Didn't you just say that judging from the character of the dirty maid, the most likely answer is not mine?"

"That's what I said, but what I mean is that judging from the character of the maid who loves to tease Xiaofan, she deliberately wrote the strange liquid just to make you think wildly, Xiaofan. In fact, the answer should be the simplest water.

"

I cried on my knees at that time, I really didn't expect this.

"But it doesn't have to be water." I still refused to give up and was unwilling to admit defeat.

"Not necessarily, but it's most likely. Think about it, the easiest liquid to get in the Hatred Cage is water, isn't it? In this place, the other party won't embarrass Xiaofan or come up with difficult things."

"Your Majesty the Saint, you know it clearly, I...I lost." I was speechless after being retorted by this perfect explanation, and I could only bow down in admiration.

"Anyway, let's see if it's actually water first."

He took out the daily drinking water bag from the inventory, poured some out, and touched the scroll. As expected, as the little ghost had judged, handwriting gradually appeared on the empty scroll.

"Long live, long live, the mighty Saintess!" I happily held the necklace and started dancing.

The little ghost who should have been so proud and declared loudly, "I can't do anything without Xiaofan", now for some reason, became unusually silent.

After waiting for a minute or two, the handwriting on the scroll was finally fully revealed. I couldn't wait to pick it up and looked at it under the torch. My smile froze.

The scroll after showing the handwriting still only has one line of words.

"Because Master Akara ordered His Highness to cure the road-crazy problem and not let me give you the map, so I have no choice. In fact, I still love you, Your Highness, chirp~~"

"Bastard, bastard, bastard, bastard..." I burst into tears again, banging my forehead against the wall.

They were completely fooled, as was the old fox Akara, and so was the dirty maid. Since Akara won't give it to me, don't give me such a fake map in the first place, let me have expectations, you bastard!

"I knew that was what happened." The little ghost finally spoke out. No wonder she was silent just now. It turned out that she had guessed the result.

"So, the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard, Xiaofan, let's go."

"It's not a small name, and you look quite happy."

"Hey, hehe, because walking through the maze with Xiaofan is the most fun."

"You think it's fun to complain about me, right?"

"Which direction should we go next? How about tossing a coin to decide."
