Chapter 1333: Rubik's Cube Island (I.)

"Rubik's Cube Island" is a half-plane created by legendary magic, and the advanced trials of all the archmages of Lighthouse Mountain have been held on this island, but before each trial, the eight chiefs will jointly cast spells to change the landform and natural environment of the island, and the monsters on the island are all temporarily created by the legendary magic of the spell system with the lock, just like the test paper is renovated every year, and the previous trial experience does not have much reference value in the face of new environments and new enemies. It is precisely because the situation on this island changes completely every year, making it difficult for trialists to prepare in advance, which is why it is named "Rubik's Cube".

Twisting the "Rubik's Cube" will disrupt the original neat picture, but there are also two eternal laws in the change: no matter how you twist the Rubik's Cube, it will always be a cube of fixed size, and there will always be only six planes, no more, no less.

"Rubik's Cube Island" also has constant elements, no matter how the terrain and monster distribution on the island are updated, the total area of the island will not change, in addition, the island can always be divided into six different areas, five of which have random changes in the geographical environment, deserts, snow fields, hills, and caves may become the target that trialists need to explore, but one of the areas called "Trial Town" is always in the center of the map, and the residents and shops in the town will not change much, if the trialist talks to the residents, In the end, the information that can be obtained will not exceed the scope pre-set by the referee.

Although these seemingly living townspeople are all living in their own way, and all have the ability to think independently, but in fact they are all summoned creatures created by magic before the trial begins, and what they know, what they don't know, what they can do, and what they can't do, are all pre-designed by the eight archmages who serve as trial judges, don't expect any surprises from them.

After listening to Master Saliya's introduction to the Rubik's Cube Island, Roland naturally thought of a type of computer game on Earth called "open world", where the scenes and characters in the game were realistic, as if they were about to be tested. Or more appropriately – this trial is like a competitive game of six players in a realistic world!

The "Trials Town" is surrounded by shops, houses, and mercenary barracks, while the central area is a square surrounded by stone pillars, the so-called "Final Proving Ground".

"For the first six days of entering Rubik's Cube Island, the Final Proving Ground is closed, and it will only open on the seventh day. All the trialists who are still alive on the island must rush to the "Final Proving Ground" before the bell rings noon that day to duel in turn, and the trialist with the highest final score will win the championship and win the golden Upanishads of the advanced archmage. ”

After Master Saliya finished introducing the situation of "Trial Town" and "Final Proving Ground", she waved her hand, and a picture changed on the wall.

"I'm going to give you an overview of the other five areas on Rubik's Cube Island, please note that this is the only time you have had the opportunity to learn about the local situation and the hostile monsters you may face before entering Rubik's Cube Island." Saliya reminded solemnly.

The people who were about to embark on the journey of the trial were all nervous and listened with bated breath to the master's introduction.

"Let's start with the first picture, the Roaring Mountains."

Saizeriya pointed to the wall, and what came to mind was a tall mountain of trees, and apes leaping between the branches could be faintly seen.

"'Roaring Mountain' is located in the north of Rubik's Cube Island, a primeval jungle, where the judges have set up a large group of four-armed orangutans, and the monster leader here is a giant four-armed orangutan king who has completed the ultimate evolution!"

"Now look at the second map, the Hill of Tears."

The image on the wall refreshes again, revealing a hill full of bushes and ravines.

"The 'Ripping Hill' is located in the northeast of Rubik's Cube Island, and there are many 'Shifting Beasts' wandering in the bushes, ready to launch a surprise attack on outsiders at any time, and the leader of the Shifting Beasts is an ultimate evolutionary species 'Shark Lizardmon', this giant beast with a body like a lizard and a head like a shark is also known as a 'Land Shark', as for how terrifying it is, I won't say much here, you can experience it for yourself."

In a sigh of disappointment, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Master Saliya's lips, and he waved his hand to change to a new map, and a steep mountain cliff emerged.

"This is the 'Storm Cliff' located in the northwest of Rubik's Cube Island, climbing up the steep hillside, you will be harassed by flocks of arrows and eagles along the way, and when you finally reach the top of the mountain, the ancient cypress tree on the top of the mountain will have a huge Peng Bird Emperor swooping down, grabbing strangers who have broken into their territory, and throwing them into the abyss, since you can't fly at high speed in the trial, it will take a lot of effort to get rid of the Peng Emperor's pursuit and surrender him."

The picture on the wall flashed, and then the valley shrouded in dusk, the deep canyon seemed to grin with a big mouth, about to swallow the trespasser, just seeing this eerie picture, people will feel the terrifying aura rushing over their faces.

"This is the 'Nightmare Valley' located directly south of Rubik's Cube Island, and there is a group of evil and brutal centaur bandits gathered in the valley, they are all servants of the nightmare beasts with supernatural powers, if you have the courage to challenge the nightmare beasts, you must first break through the obstacles of the centaur bandits, this is destined to be a bloody road."

Master Saliya hooked his fingers, and the last page of the picture on the wall was opened, and what appeared in front of everyone was a dense forest under the moonlight, and ghosts could be seen faintly lurking among the dark branches, as if there was a dark wind blowing through the picture to the heart, which made people shudder.

"Finally, there is the 'Weeping Forest' in the southeast corner of Mosaic Island, this is the most dangerous place on the island, if you break into the Weeping Forest, you will be attacked by a group of cursed evil Treants, unless you look closely, it is difficult to tell the difference between a stationary Treant and a normal tree, if you are lucky enough to break through the Treants and enter the clearing in the middle of the jungle, you will be challenged there' Ancient Owl', I can only tell you that this is a very ferocious tree-shaped monster, and as for how ferocious it is, you have to verify it for yourself. ”

Master Saliya waved his hand to remove the pictures on the wall, as if he didn't want the trialists to get more information from them, and said with a restrained smile: "The situation on the island is generally like this, powerful monsters will indeed cause you a lot of trouble, but please don't forget that these strong enemies will also bring you the opportunity to surpass your competitors!" ”
