Chapter 995: Fierce Battle for Ziyan (Twenty-Nine)

No matter what the leopard-man boy Hal said that "this game is faulty" and "we can't die, if we die, it will affect our bodies in reality", Husky didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.

After all, it's just a virtual game. How does failure in the game affect reality?

Therefore, although he said that he would be careful and try to avoid a head-on confrontation with the enemy, the dog boy was under the ghost of hunting the big boss. If he meets the big boss in this castle, he will definitely not stop there, but rush to fight the big boss.

Husky raised his sword and shattered the ice that sealed the entrance to the cave, and the three of them walked out of the cave together. It seems that the negative three underground floors have been swept away, and there are no more chapter guards, so it is still safe to walk here for the time being. Husky didn't take a few steps before spreading out a map of the castle and trying to find a safe way out of the castle.

"Very good, go two straight intersections from here and turn left and there is a vent next to the stairs leading to the upper floor. Husky said as he led the way.

Calvin leaned over to take a look, "There is indeed a vent system that can be used, but this vent is not well marked." "It doesn't matter," Husky said confidently, "that the basement of this castle is below sea level. They must have drawn air down from the upper floors to ventilate the old city. So, we just have to climb up, as long as the direction is roughly right, we will definitely be able to go out Wang. "Is it really that simple?" said Leopard Boy Hal looked at Dog Man Boy Husky suspiciously, "Moreover, Hal has a bad premonition." "That's the only way to get out, even if you say no, you have to bite the bullet." Husky frowned and replied, "Howl, it's just a game." What happened last time at Uncle Arthur's house, it can't happen in the world of the game. Don't worry, Wang. "Good... Okay meow. The leopard boy couldn't help but shudder when he remembered the incident last time. It seems that it is too early for him to be truly reassured. There is some kind of unpredictable danger lurking in Husky's body, and Hal can't really rest assured for a day with that thing in place.

"Anyway-" The canine boy walked to the vent next to the stairs and broke it with a force, removing the guardrail of the vent, "Let's go, Wang." Wait for the situation to happen and then improvise Wang. He was the first to climb into the vent. The Fish-Man Prince smiled easily and happily, and followed closely behind the canine boy - his eyes never took off Husky's tail.

Hal looked at the dark vent and hesitated for a moment, and finally reluctantly slipped in.

Crawling into the ventilation ducts, and after his eyes got used to the darkness, Hal felt that this place was not as scary as he imagined. When Husky, who took the lead, lit the torches, the full view of the ventilation ducts was revealed.

The meandering, roughly every five yards, of massive stone brick ducts, looked like they were a long time old.

Due to the need to pump fresh air from sea level to the basement three floors, the ventilation ducts were built quite wide. Not to mention the petite teenagers like Hal and them, even the sturdy chapter guards can crawl in this ventilation duct.

In the case of Howl, the ventilation ducts that the adults need to crawl to walk, they only need to walk in a half-crouch, just enough to avoid hitting their heads on the ceiling. In short, they can walk in this ventilation duct with ease.

"Uh-" It's easy, but it's very dirty in this pipe. Hal walked with one hand on the inner wall of the pipe, and found that his palms were soon covered with a black, greasy substance. It is estimated that the lack of cleaning all year round, coupled with the dark and damp, has caused a lot of mold to grow here.

"Don't worry about this little thing. Husky, who was leading the way, advised: "It's just a game, and we don't really get our hands dirty in reality." "Hmm... Hal snorted in agreement. Still, the unpleasant feeling was very real, as if they were walking down a dark and dirty sewer, and as if they had entered the belly of some huge creature, constantly tempted, touched, and licked by something dark and evil. This feeling really made Hal feel extremely uncomfortable.

"By the way, our character in this game is going to get sick?" said the Leopard Man Boy, trying to talk to his friends to distract himself from the disgusting feeling.

"I don't think there's such a setting. Calvin, who had read the guide, thought for a moment: "Hmm... No. The characters in this game are probably normal people who are super healthy, and no matter how bad the environment is, they will not be infected by germs and get sick - unlike some frail people in reality, haha. "Uh-" The sentence stung the leopard man. Without the aid of a wheelchair and crutches, Hal would not be able to walk on his own in reality.

"Can you find a little less fault, Wang?" Husky snorted dissatisfiedly, "If you want to climb up, pay attention to Wang." "Wait. Meow up—?" the leopard man boy looked at the almost straight upward shape of the ventilation duct, and couldn't help but be surprised.

In the light of the torches, their location was about thirty yards above the end of the pipe. Whether it will be considered to the top after climbing the mountain is still unknown.

There is a lot of mold, very dirty ventilation ducts, although there are many stone crevices that can be used as a foothold for climbing, but they are still intimidating. Add to that the fact that mold is wet and slippery, and one can slip off the pipe if you're not careful.

And falling from a height of thirty yards is probably either death or injury.

In short, it is almost impossible to safely climb such slippery pipes.

"Hmm-I'm going to have a problem right away, Wang. Husky held his cheeks and seemed to be thinking the same thing.

"I knew this was the case, so we brought climbing tools with us before we came out. Hal didn't just complain. Before they set off to deal with the chapter man yesterday (during game time), they could have resupplied various wild adventure equipment in the shop at the Eternal Altar, but Husky refused on the grounds that "the price is too expensive".

A climbing tool costs 100 gold coins, which is really dark. But they can bring a lot of convenience to adventurers at critical moments. Why would he be stingy with the three hundred gold coins in the first place?--Hal had finally learned this lesson.

"So, Prince Ben is here to do something?" Calvin stepped forward, raising his staff and preparing to cast a spell.

"No, God knows if we'll have a fight to deal with Wang in the future? Husky objected: "Well, let Husky climb up first, and then use the rope he has prepared, and pull you up one by one." Husky and his dad climbed snowy mountains when he was a child, and he should-" "If it's mountain climbing, Hal is better at meowing than you." The leopard man boy couldn't wait to interrupt his little friend's words and pulled out two daggers: "Hal grew up in the Turkic marshes, and you forgot about meow? Calvin gave the leopard man a blank look: "... Are you sure you can climb it?" Hal nodded confidently, "Compared to the moss-covered, slippery swamp trees, this ventilation duct with just a little mold is a heavenly meow." With these two daggers, Hal can climb up and meow. "Okay, okay, since you're so insistent on Wang. Husky frowned: "Don't worry, even if it slides down, we will catch your Wang below." The leopard boy nodded, and walked over to the ascending section of the vent.

The stupid and clumsy leopard-man boy has never succeeded in climbing a swamp tree, and every challenge has ended in failure, repeatedly asking his brothers to save him. He brags, just doesn't want his friends to take risks.

If Howl's character dies, the big deal is to be demoted to one level and resurrected again in the Eternal Altar. Husky, on the other hand, is possessed by the black spider, and if he dies in the game, he will immediately fall into a coma and be attacked by the Black Reaper in his nightmares.

This is something that Hal wants to avoid anyway.

Hal looked up. The road ahead is so high and so dark. Unknown horrors and dangers await him. But there was no turning back. The leopard boy took a deep breath and raised the dagger in his right hand, stabbing it deep into the crack in the stone wall of the ventilation duct.

Well, the feel is acceptable, and the dagger shows no signs of loosening. If you use this strength, you won't be afraid of slippery mold on the stone wall.

It should work, right?

No, he had to succeed for the sake of his little buddy.

The leopard man raised his left hand, borrowed from the dagger in his right hand, and stabbed the dagger in his left hand deep into the crevice of the stone higher up.

But he was a little negligent. He is now a human body, with no sharp cat claws on his feet, and is not as good at climbing as he is in reality. His feet tried to find a point of support on the wall, but suddenly stepped on the slippery mold and slipped.

He slid down, hit his head against the wall, and fell very ugly.

"Howl, are you alright?" the leopard man rubbed his head. Fortunately, the game shielded their pain, otherwise this bump would have hurt a lot, right? Although it didn't hurt, he still dizzy his eyes for a while, and his character was probably not lightly injured.

"Hmm...... Miscalculated, the soles of human feet are completely different from those of orcs. He vigorously defended his failure.

"If you can't do it, forget it. Calvin took the opportunity to mock: "This kind of small slope is still solved by Prince Ben." All you need to do is cast a spell—" "No, let Hal try again." "The leopard boy seemed a little unreasonably stubborn. He thought about it and found a compromise.
