Chapter 617: Testing
The tower is embedded in an old gray-yellow wall surrounded by narrow laneways.
In the evening, the red sunset sun shines obliquely, dyeing half of the alley completely red. The door frame was also dyed gray and red.
Lu Sheng took a deep breath and glanced to the side, where a group of black-skinned rats were scrambling for food scraps by the garbage heap, which seemed to be some kind of fish bones that had been gnawed clean.
Sizzle.
Several rats were immediately frightened by Lu Sheng's gaze and fled in all directions.
Lu Sheng retracted his gaze and glanced at the entrance of the Songxin Tower in front of him. This so-called Songxin Tower, except for a door entrance, there is no other trace.
"Do you want to go in? If you don't go in, please let me go." Just as Lu Sheng was looking around, ready to really think about how to enter.
An indifferent, hoarse woman's voice came from behind her.
Lu Sheng turned around, and there were already two men and women in different clothes standing behind him.
An old maid who looks like an ordinary big family helping, and she looks about forty years old.
The other man was at most in his teens, with blue shorts embroidered with plum blossoms, all kinds of plum blossoms, and he was neither male nor female, quite handsome, and there was a sense of nervousness and depression on his body.
The two stood behind Lu Sheng one after the other.
"Please. Lu Sheng got out of the way.
Anyone can enter the Songxin Tower, which is not limited to age, status, and identity.
The old woman strode in front of Lu Sheng and walked into the gate of the Songxin Tower without hesitation.
After that, the handsome man stood in front of the door and hesitated before gritting his teeth and stepping in.
Lu Sheng didn't rush in, he recalled the information collected during this time.
There are countless types of tests and tests in this tower of songs, and the patterns are never repeated. I don't know what the mechanism is like.
But all the Songxin Towers have one thing in common, that is, they can accurately screen out talents with good qualifications, good willpower, and values like Libra City.
Lu Sheng stood in front of the door of the Songxin Tower, didn't go in, just kept staring at the others who followed.
The gate here can only enter and exit, and the moment everyone enters, they can see subtle black ripples rippling open inside the door.
"There's no energy reaction, there's no mechanism ringing.... This Singing Heart Tower.... It seems that there is no way to count the rules..."Almost all the people Lu Sheng saw here were prepared in various ways before striding into the Songxin Tower.
Some people have large bags and small bags, some travel lightly, some people carry messy little pendants, and even some people even bring beast companions.
After observing for more than two hours, Lu Sheng found nothing, thought for a moment, and then stood up.
He walked to the door.
The gate of Songxin Pagoda is more than three meters high and more than one meter wide. There are no patterns on the border, only a small line of inscription-like engravings on the top.
Lu Sheng recognized it, and found that it was not the language of Doom, nor was it any language he knew.
"Since I can't find a pattern, I can only try it myself. β
Lu Sheng held the frame with his hand and took a step forward.
Phew.
As if piercing through a layer of soap bubbles, a soft, moist film slid over his body.
Lu Sheng's eyes flashed, and then he completely passed through the door frame.
The booming noise of the neighborhood in my ears also fell silent for a moment and disappeared without a trace.
What appeared in front of him was an alley exactly the same as before entering the door.
The only difference is that the alleys here are empty.
The walls on both sides are still mottled gray from the past, and some corners have even been peeled off, revealing deep gray walls.
Lu Sheng patted the gray robe on his body, his current dress was no different from that of an ordinary scholar on the street.
A gray robe covers the knees, white trousers, small brown leather boots, a dark blue wrapper is tied around the body, and a small black gourd hangs from the waist.
Hanging a small gourd is a feature of this Libra City, which has the meaning of praying for peace and auspiciousness.
The only difference is that Lu Sheng's hair was cut short by himself and turned into a rare short haircut.
Standing in the alley and observing for a while, Lu Sheng faintly found that this alley seemed to have existed for a long time.
He walked to the mouth of the alley and felt the bare dents and scratches on the wall.
The scratch seemed to be scratched by some kind of sharp claw.
A trace of demonic energy penetrated through the scratches, and the corrosion rate was very slow.
"At least thousands of years of corruption...," Lu Sheng concluded.
Walking out of the alley, there is an empty, quiet, messy street outside.
The shops on both sides of the street were empty, and from a distance, through the windows, you could see that some of the shelves were covered with thick dust. There were a lot of rubble scattered on the ground, as well as some unknown black powder.
"Here...."Lu Sheng frowned, he had just come from the neighborhood of Libra City, this place was very similar to the neighborhood, but it exuded a strange ancient atmosphere.
The subtle structure is also different in many places.
A hazy mist wafted through the streets, and a subtle cold breeze ran through the entire neighborhood.
Lu Sheng slowly walked to a shop and looked inside.
It's a pastry-like shop, with a porcelain plate for pastries and a metal plate that resembles a menu.
"What is this testing?guts?" Lu Sheng frowned and slowly walked towards the store.
"Who!" Suddenly, a nervous woman's voice came from the dark curtain in the innermost part of the store.
Lu Sheng moved his gaze over, his spirit hadn't sensed that there was someone here before, but he didn't expect a voice to come out suddenly.
This place, there seems to be something that interferes with perception.
There was darkness in the gray-black curtain, and even Lu Sheng's eyesight could not see anything inside.
"Who's there!" the female voice rang out again.
"Is there anything you need help with?" Lu Sheng was silent, but still spoke slowly.
The other party used a strange sound of Doom, and he could understand it.
"Really, can you really help me?" the woman asked hurriedly.
"If your request isn't too difficult, I think so. Lu Sheng said calmly.
The woman was silent for a moment, then began to speak her plea.
"Here.... The city, all of a sudden, became like this one day. Without warning, I was still in the mill buying the flour I needed. It's a pity....." The woman said slowly, mixed with a little sobbing.
"My husband... When I came back, I suddenly noticed that my husband had undergone some strange change. β
"It's weird, it's a change that scares me!"
"So, I would like to ask you to go deep into the center of the city and bring back my husband, who was hiding there.
Please also tell him that Nana... Nana has been waiting for him here .... I don't care what he becomesβ" The female voice said, and the silence slowly fell.
"I'll bring. Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes and turned to leave.
Leaving the shop, he glanced at the rest of the storefronts, and I was afraid that many of the shops on the street were hiding such incidents.
After settling down, Lu Sheng faintly felt that this place, this place, did not seem to be built by Libra City, but more likely that they used this place as a test place.
As for the possible dangers, what you want to gain will naturally face the same risks and costs.
Leaving the pastry shop, Lu Sheng made his way through the block towards the center of the city, and after crossing a few streets, he soon entered a small garden square.
The square is surrounded by streets that lead to various blocks, and in the middle stands a black behemoth with a metallic sheen.
The monster was waving its eight arms, turning its bare head at three hundred and sixty degrees, and looking around.
The upper body of the monster is a human, and the lower body is a huge sphere, and its action depends entirely on the rolling of the ball, making a heavy rumbling sound from time to time.
As soon as Lu Sheng stepped into the square, he was spotted by this huge creature more than ten meters high.
This guy's two black eyes swept over like lanterns, staring at Lu Sheng.
"To get through here, you'll have to answer me a question...."The monster's voice was low like thunder, and the rumble continued to echo over the square.
"What's the problem?" Lu Sheng leaned out and carefully touched the surroundings here.
As soon as the divine soul came into contact with these gray mist, it was absorbed a lot. The stone bricks on the ground also have some kind of inexplicable blocking and detection effect.
"There are a lot of people who answer questions from me, but very few of them have answers that satisfy me. The monster said in a deep voice, "If within fifty breaths, your answer does not satisfy me, then I will eat you and wait for the next one." β
"Understood. Please say it. Lu Sheng nodded.
He probably understood what kind of character this monster was, and it should be set up here as a mission level to block the tester's test.
The monster shook its head.
"My question is, can you count how many arms I have?"
He shook his long hands, making a subtle vibration sound. Arms waving in the air, constant whistling.
Lu Sheng counted carefully.
"Eight arms. He replied earnestly.
"Are you sure? look closer!" the monster continued.
Lu Sheng hesitated and counted again.
β..... So.. Four arms?" he felt as if half of the monster's eight hands were hands, not much like arms.
"Are you really sure?" the monster waved his arms faster and faster, and his six arms were slowly becoming translucent and invisible.
"So.... Are they two?" Lu Sheng felt a little uncertain again.
"Look at it again!?" the monster snapped out of its body and waved its arms wildly.
Flicker...
The whistling of arms waving through the air became more and more intense.
"Shijo?"
"Look again?" two more arms popped out, splitting out of the monster's body.
"Rokujo?"
"See again?" Four arms joined the monster's side and began to wave.
"Ten?" Lu Sheng was expressionless.
"Hahahaha, it's a pity, guess!!..."
A loud bang exploded.
Lu Sheng rushed forward with a punch like lightning. In just an instant, one of his arms plunged into the monster's head, and a large number of cracks spread from the position of his palm to the monster's entire body.
"Yes, I guessed that. Lu Sheng's face remained unchanged, and he slowly withdrew his hand.
"Don't ask such a retarded question next time. He leaped forward and landed on the ground.
Behind him, a large number of fragments of black metal kept falling, smashing into the ground of the square, making a loud noise.
