Du Shen thought about it for a moment, and raised his hand to point out a wizard from the cave of the divine beast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Du Shen ordered the other party, attached to the totem, and jumped on the body of the turtle beast.

The cave wizard didn't hesitate. He threw a fist-sized silver ball. The silver ball took the form of a tiger and wolf and pounced on the wizard. The tiger wolf scattered into a pile of tiny particles, enveloping the wizard entirely. At first glance, it looks like a wizard's body, and a half-orc phantom stands.

The wizard ran with great speed. He jumped heavily, flew more than ten meters away, and fell far away to the surface of the turtle beast's body.

The wizard is about to touch the armor. The armor stood up, and the wizard flew out involuntarily.

The wizard has not yet landed. The erected piece of armor made a faint sound, like the sound of a sand mallet shaking. With the sound, Du Shen saw that a dark golden beetle jumped out from the back of the carapace.

The beetle has a flat body and is larger than a car tire. A pair of elongated, sharp corners grow on the top of its head. The beetle landed and rushed at a breakneck speed towards the cave wizard who was getting up.

"Save people!" Du Shen ordered, taking the lead in releasing more than a dozen ghouls and rushing towards the beetles.

The speed of the beetle is probably as long as that of a low-level knight. Before the ghoul could stop it, the beetle had already crashed into the cave wizard. The wizard swung his fist and struck the beetle with his illusory claws. There seemed to be a sound of gold and stone, and the beetle and the wizard each took two steps back.

The beetle was about to hit again, but was stopped by the ghouls who arrived. Beetles are indeed tricky and sensitive. But it can't break through the encirclement of a dozen ghouls. The ghoul punches and stomps his feet. The beetles were hit one after another, moving slower and slower, and being smashed flatter and flatter. The beetle's six thin legs twitched for a while, and stopped moving.

Du Shen approached the beetle and leaned over to touch it. He found that the beetle's shell was very hard, not inferior to alloy. Du Shen thought about it, put it away, and planned to take it back to the base camp to be studied by the wizard.

"My lord, what should we do next?" a wizard waited for a while and asked Du Shen.

Du Shen stared at the turtle beast that continued to move slowly as if nothing had happened. He named a wizard and ordered the temptation to continue.

The newly named wizard did not hesitate either. He followed Du Shen's order and rushed towards the same turtle beast. The wizard was likewise catapulted. Behind the erected carapace, a similar beetle also jumps out. The beetle also rushed straight at the sorcerer who had been bounced away.

Du Shen drives the ghouls and kills the new beetles. He glanced at the dense scales on the surface of the four turtle beasts: "If there are beetles hidden behind each scale armor. Their total number is estimated at tens of thousands. Just killing them will take us days. Let's go back to Newcastle first, and then it's not too late to come back when our strength improves in the future. ”

The wizards had no objections. They answered with a loud voice and walked towards the gate of light.

Du Shen took the lead. The crowd had not walked a few steps. In front of Du Shen, a halo suddenly appeared. In the halo, the figure of a thin old man was revealed. The old man spoke, and his voice was clear: "Don't go yet! My name is Mario, and I am the leader of the Knowledge Lodge. Boy, what's your name, and what's your role in the Shadow Keep?"

Du Shen looked at the slightly blurred figure in the halo: "My name is Du Shen." Teresa is the contemporary master of Shadowkeep. I'm her confidant. Teresa will listen to me. ”

Maybe Du Shen's explanation was too presumptuous, and he didn't seem to take Teresa seriously. Mario fell silent.

Du Shen waited for a moment, and strode impatiently: "You can think of me as half the master of the Shadow Castle. What's the matter with you? If you're okay, we want to hurry back. ”

"Don't worry," the aperture followed Du Shen's footsteps, moving forward, always in front of Du Shen, "We in the Knowledge Hut did swear to Teresa's ancestors that we would do our best to help his descendants. Now that you're here. We decided to deliver on our promise as soon as possible. ”

"Oh," Du Shen paused, "That's good." Come with me. ”

"But," Mario stroked his chin with the long beard, "we can't get out! ”

"What," Du Shen was taken aback, half-convinced, "before that, when we first met. What do you say, 'The time you have been waiting for has not yet come'?"

"Hehe," Mario laughed dryly, "that's not just meeting, I don't know what you're about." So, I'm going to use lies to build momentum. ”

Du Shen looked unhappy and asked, "What's the matter? You'd better explain it clearly!"

Mario seemed to be afraid that Du Shen would escape, so he quickly explained.

It turned out that more than a thousand years ago, Mario's ancestors angered a peerless powerhouse because of their pursuit of knowledge. As a punishment, the strong man brought four turtle beasts and cast a secret method to completely seal the entire secret realm of knowledge. So that the people in the secret realm cannot return to the world of Manlo.

Originally, the strong man just wanted to punish the knowledge hut and seal it for hundreds of years. After that, the Secret Spell of Imprisonment will naturally subside.

Who thinks, the period of imprisonment has not yet ended. An ancient wizard war has spread to the realm of knowledge. The secret realm was destroyed, and it was more closely combined with the confinement secret method set up by the strong. The members of the Knowledge Hut are literally imprisoned in this space forever.

Fortunately, the secret method of imprisonment set up by the strong originally left room for improvement. And the members of the Knowledge Lodge are worthy of the knowledgeable. They found a way to smuggle back to Manlo at certain times of the year.

The duration of smuggling is relatively short, and the longest time is not more than a month. Those who are knowledgeable use this time to gain knowledge in an effort to solve the problem of confinement once and for all. Therefore, for nearly a thousand years, the wizarding world has only heard of its name, and it is difficult to see its people. As for the indifference of the knowledgeable to fame and fortune, it is also because: no matter how far they escape, once the smuggling period expires, they will be sent back to the secret realm of knowledge by the Manluo world.

Mario also told Du Shen a piece of news. Because of the mutation of the secret realm of knowledge, people from outside, although they can enter from the Manluo world. However, once an outsider stays for more than three days, they will be targeted by the Secret Method, and will be regarded as a member of the Knowledge Hut, never to return.

In fact, Mario was born in the world of Manlo. He was an orphan. When the leader of the previous generation of huts was smuggling, he brought him back who was about to die of illness and trained him to be an heir.

"That is to say," Du Shen couldn't help but compare Mario with Ronald, both old men have a white beard, "you want us to help you escape completely?"

"Yes. Mario explained in detail. After their lengthy research, the Knowledgeable have discovered a flaw in the Secret Technique of Imprisonment. As long as the outsiders kill the four turtle beasts and cause the shock of the secret realm, Mario can use a secret treasure to completely escape from this cage while the shock is interspersed.

"Kill the turtle beast?" Du Shen turned his head to look at the slow-moving giant beast, his scalp tingling. Just now, Du Shen said that he would kill tens of thousands of beetles. That's just preparing for the worst, casually. At this point, Ruozhen agrees to help Mario escape from prison. Then you really have to kill all the beetles.

Beetles and turtle beasts. If there is no three-day deadline, Du Shen thinks that there is still hope for slow grinding. However, after three days of coming in, you will never be able to go out. Du Shen felt that the hope of a successful prison escape was really slim.

"How is the three-day period calculated?" Du Shen couldn't help but ask in detail.

Mario explained. The key lies in the light gate that comes in. In fact, everyone who enters and exits the secret realm may see overlapping light gates, but they are definitely different. Whichever door of light you come into, that door of light will be yours alone. If you want to leave, you can only go through your own light gate. When you stay in the secret realm of knowledge for three days, the light gate that belongs to you will automatically disappear. After that, even if you can see someone else's light gate, you won't be able to get out.

Du Shen shook his head again and again: "No." No way. This is the countdown of three days! The turtle beast is so big, and the scales are so thick. Even if they don't have any other special means of counterattacking, it's hard to kill them in three days. This transaction is too risky and too costly. We'll look into it later. ”

"Is there really no way?" said Mario, looking disappointed and anxious.

Du Shen groaned for a while, looked up and asked, "If I help you escape." How can you repay me?"

Mario seemed to be prepared, and immediately replied: "We don't have any treasures in the knowledge hut, only countless knowledge." As long as you get me out, our knowledge hut will serve you wholeheartedly for two hundred years!"

"It's too short," Du Shen shook his head, "I think I can live for at least three hundred years." You have served me for at least three hundred years. ”

"Okay," Mario waved his hand happily, "Three hundred years is three hundred years!"

"That's good," Du Shen leaned sideways to summon a few wizard captains, "let me test your quality a priori." ”

Du Shen turned around and commanded several captains. He asks the crowd to ask Mario for advice. Soon, the wizards lined up to ask Mario questions. They either ask questions about obscure questions, or they ask Mario directly about what he is good at.

After a long time, several captains summarized the results and reported to Du Shen: "Compare with our knowledge level." This old man's knowledge is indeed very profound. What he has learned has both depth and breadth. I believe that he can be of great help to our Shadow Castle. ”

Du Shen saw several captains showing admiration, and also saw Mario put his hands behind his back and was proud. Du Shen nodded and approached the aperture: "Can you find a secret place? Let the two of us meet alone?" I have a plan and want to discuss with you in detail." ”

Mario hesitated slightly. The aperture in front of Du Shen's eyes suddenly brightened. The aperture snaps abruptly, then fades. Du Shen found that the figure in the aperture turned into a real existence.

"Hey, hey, hey," Mario walked barefoot towards Du Shen in short-sleeved and shorts, "It's not good to entertain you! Let's just find a random place and talk quietly!"

Du Shen pouted indifferently. He turned around and told his men to stay put. Du Shen and Mario walked side by side into the distance and discussed carefully.
