Chapter 6: The Awakened Alchemy Puppet

The nightmare of midnight finally came.

The little griffin excitedly spread its wings and wanted to pounce out the door to see what was going on, but Nick stopped it, glanced at Suya, who was still asleep, and signaled that it should wake up its master first.

"Uh-" The little lion couldn't help but let out a low sound, turned around, and flew to Su Ya's bedside, and before it could make a sound, Su Ya opened her eyes clearly, sat up and said, "It's midnight?"

"Yes, Suya," replied the little griffin softly, "in the hallway, there are leprechauns singing. ”

Su Ya tidied up her clothes, picked up her magic wand, and listened to the movement outside the door, and sure enough, she heard the singing, which was already close to the door panel: "...... What time is the old wolf......

The melodies of the tap dance, stepping on the wooden floor, were not cute, but terrifying, and it could be inferred from the sound that they were coming straight to her room.

It seems that this is a test for the trialists.

Su Ya remembered that the waiter had said not to leave the room at midnight, so she cautiously did not take the initiative to open the door, but took a step back, and sure enough, the door lock suddenly fell inexplicably with a "click", followed by a team of goblins wearing red hats.

They were small, about the size of a palm, with lovely faces, sharp teeth, and red hats, exactly as described in the ancient books of magic.

If the ancient records are correct, they are most afraid of the red hat on their heads falling off, and the most annoying thing is salt, and when they take the initiative to attack, they can jump into the air, and their mouths are half the size of their faces, tearing at their enemies, and when they escape, they can instantly use magic to transform into a large pile of dust, making it impossible for people to find it in the dark.

Not only quirky, but also difficult.

Su Ya casually knocked a few magic wands in her hand, which confirmed this statement, and she glanced at the little griffin.

The little griffin "chirped", fluttered its wings and slammed into the window of the room, and flew out, Nick jumped on the windowsill with it, and the goblins did not stop it, still single-mindedly attacking Suya.

It seems that the alchemy puppets of ordinary characters are indeed less adaptable, and they will only carry out tasks according to the program set by the designer, which makes Su Ya, who is wandering in a strange world, a little more relaxed psychologically.

However, the red hat goblins in the corridor were still pouring into the room, more and more, and soon they all squeezed into the room, and the goblins who were slapped away by Su Ya before also seemed to have eased their strength, and they turned back into goblins from dust to join the battle.

Some of them couldn't get close to Su Ya, so they began to play pranks in the room, jumping on the table and sweeping down the candles, crawling on the bed and rummaging the sheets, and even gnawing on the floor.

Su Ya retreated while fighting, and soon her whole body was attached to the windowsill, she threw out a string of ice blades, so that the goblins in the front row turned into ashes again, and turned her head to look at the movement outside the window: probably because the movement in her room was getting louder and louder, the lights in the left and right rooms were lit up, and there was a faint sound of talking, but no one dared to poke their heads out to see what was going on.

Not long after the little griffin went out, he flew back, fanned a few goblins with his wings, threw himself into the bed, and shivered: "It's cold, it's cold, it's so cold outside!"

It seems that the night here is indeed much colder than the real world, but Su Ya's main concern at this time is not this, but: "Is the salt paved?"

"Of course!"

"Very well, Nick," Sua said, turning to Nick on the windowsill, "I draw their attention, you throw their hats." ”

"Got it, sister-sama!" Nick happily responded, and then "bang" into a little goblin and fell into the leprechaun pile, to be honest, even Su Ya couldn't tell who it was.

I saw one after another red hats, thrown out of the group of little goblins, and threw out the windows, and then the team of goblins immediately messed up, they didn't care about attacking Su Ya, some jumped off the windowsill to pick up the hats, and some grabbed other people's hats and put them on their heads, while "squeaking" and singing, while punching and kicking each other.

Su Ya's room was on the second floor, the hat was thrown out, most of them were blown by the cold wind and flew everywhere, and some happened to fall directly below, and the little goblins who jumped down fell to the ground, without exception, they didn't come back, on the contrary, they ran farther than the other.

Because along with the walls outside Suya's room, the little griffin doused it with salt water, of course, strictly speaking, the process should be like this: it sprinkles salt first, then spits fire to melt the ice and snow, then sprinkles it, and then spits fire......

Let the holy beasts of the dignified fire attribute do miscellaneous in the ice and snow, if it is not for the sake of competing for favor, hum!

But anyway, Su Ya's goal was achieved, there were fewer and fewer goblins in the room, and the only few who found out that the situation was wrong, and those who wanted to escape back to the corridor were also blocked by Su Ya, joking, if they ran back and came back in the second half of the night, she really didn't have to sleep tonight.

Finally, the only thing left in the room was the red-hatted leprechaun, grinning at her with bared teeth, needless to say, the one Nick pretended, of course.

Su Ya raised her chin and motioned to it: "Go and see if there is anything else in the corridor." ”

"Received!" Nick happily ran to the door of the room, looked left and right, and saw that there was no, and deliberately ran to the door to stomp and sing, but still no new goblin appeared, so he happily closed the door and ran back to Suya to ask for credit, "Oh, no!"

Su Ya's face showed the joy of victory, the first battle was won, it was quite easy, it seems that the trial on the first layer of the tower is not too difficult, I hope tomorrow's trip can also be smooth: "Great, then hurry up and sleep for a while, tomorrow morning we have to find the bearded dwarf!"

The two little ones nodded excitedly, but Su Ya looked around the room by herself, slumped her shoulders, and said with a bitter face: "But the room is so messy!"

was made by those little goblins, there is no good place, and I don't know if the hotel will pay her tomorrow!

But forget it, she just wants to sleep now, let's talk about tomorrow tomorrow, Su Ya thought so, and very irresponsibly took out a stack of tents from the magic wand that turned back into a silver flute, stretched it out three times and two times, took out a sleeping bag, and went into sleep.

The little griffin and Nick glanced at each other, and both turned their heads awkwardly, one turned into a prototype and lay outside the tent, and the other was still lying on the bed and refused to move the nest: no way, it's too cold, and the little fire beast hasn't eased up yet~

Wake up to the sky.

When the first rays of dawn leap out of the horizon, as if spring is returning to the earth, the ice and snow melt at a speed visible to the naked eye, the grass and trees under the snow shake their bodies, the flowers bloom, the leaves grow long, and even the birds and butterflies emerge from nowhere, busily dancing.

When Suya finished washing up and opened the window again to look at the scenery outside, she felt that everything was so bright, warm, and full of life, and the cold and attack of last night really seemed to be just a nightmare.

Except for when queuing to check out, there were always a few people looking at her with speculation and hesitation.

But what made Su Ya happy was that the attendant with the red hat didn't mention the problem of damage to the room, so he asked Su Ya to return the door key.

Great, save a fortune, she's very short of money now.

However, Su Ya's good mood didn't last until she left the hotel gate, and the man in line behind her sneakily followed, looking sven, and the tone of accosting her seemed to have another purpose: "Hehe, it was you last night, right?"

With such a simple routine, Su Ya would not be fooled, she asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"

There are not many trialists like Su Ya who can easily handle the trial and still don't admit it, the man was stunned for a moment before he reconfirmed: "It was last night, didn't you win the red hat goblin?!"

"It's not. ”

“…… If you admit it, we invite you to join our Adventure Squad, our Squad's strongest team in the search for unicorns, don't you want to complete the Adventure Guild's mission to capture the unicorns?"

Is this the meaning of a forced plot that does not fit in with words?

But she really didn't want to take on this task for the time being: "I'm sorry, thank you for the invitation, I'm going to take my brother to the town to buy some things." ”

“…… Hmph, young man, don't regret it!"

"No, it won't. ”

"Phew-"

"Sister, let's go!" Nick hurriedly added a role to himself.

"Heh-" Someone laughed out loud in the shadows, it was the lone wanderer she had seen last night, he swept away the previous gloom, and looked at Su Ya's expression quite playfully, "What an interesting trialist, it seems that the outside world has changed so much!"

"Trialist", "The outside world", such a description should not come from the mouth of an alchemy puppet, even if due to the setting of the task, the alchemy puppets can discover the identity of the trialist and cooperate, they also need to play their role reasonably, just like the one behind her.

After all, the great alchemist, the first criterion for creating this world is truth.

Su Ya glanced at each other with the little griffin who turned into an owl on his shoulder, and it seemed that after 10,000 years, this ruined place of trials had undergone unexpected changes.
