"Damn, hit something?" I rolled on the sand and fell out for dozens of meters before I stopped, but I didn't dare to stand up, my feet were full of quicksand, and I would definitely sink down immediately.

The pioneer was lying on the sand next to him with his belly facing the sky, his body still writhing unconsciously, and it seemed that the collision was not light. I hurriedly summoned the rose vine and the night moon to help. Rose vines are also masters of hole-punching and won't have any problems on quicksand. Night Moon's big tail is also more suitable for quicksand environments, at least she won't sink.

With the help of the rose vine, the Trailblazer was turned over, but he had already been knocked unconscious, and it seemed that he could not be counted on for the rest of the trip.

I was about to think of something else when the sand in front of me suddenly shook violently. The quicksand ground is easy to sink into even in normal times, but it is even more dangerous in the vibration, and I started to sink down even when I was lying on the ground.

"How?"

The rose vine conveys the message directly with psychic contact. "The epicenter is thirty meters away, and the direction is just ahead."

When I just fell, I turned in a different direction, and now it should be the direction we came from. Thirty meters means it's not far, could it be that we just hit this thing?

Nightshade smiled and looked over there and said, "Looks like a big guy?" ”

"Rose vine, tentative attack."

Two rattans suddenly rose from the sand, then twisted around each other to form a spear-like structure, and plunged into the target. The sharp tip of the rattan thrust into the sand, then stopped. After waiting for a few seconds, the rattan suddenly began to move under the sand, and even the upper part was dragged to move.

The rose vine was clearly on target. But the other party actually began to run away, and he also ran with the rose vine. The rose vine quickly spreads its branches to hold as much quicksand as possible, so that the resistance rises significantly. The two rattans were stretched straight to the ground, and then suddenly a sand spring erupted in the sand. Immediately after, with a loud guttural scream, a huge monster's head sticks out of the ground.

"It's really big!"

"Looks like a close relative of Redthorn." Night Moon sighed.

"Redthorn, Tank, come out and help."

The opponent is a giant arthropod, very huge, and the tank they are completely on the same level. As soon as the tank appeared, it spread its wings and tried to fly, but it turned out that it could not leave the ground. I hurriedly reminded them that there was no space here, and they couldn't fly. The tank, which had given up flying, quickly stretched its limbs and fixed himself in the sand, and although he would still sink, his huge body did not care about the small fall.

Compared to the tank, the Red Thorn is much more relaxed. Although the size is just as huge. However, the weight of the red thorn is significantly smaller, so it will not sink too much, and the legs are very long. Even if you get stuck in it, it's not a problem at all.

"Kill that thing." I pointed to the front.

The monster under the sand suddenly roared, and then frantically rushed towards the tank. The front foot of the tank swept violently, and with a bang, the monster was knocked out sideways for hundreds of meters before it hit the ground with a bang. The guy landed and quickly flipped up, and then rushed over at a faster speed. The giant tail of the red thorn stood up. After a continuous popping sound, there was a row of red steel thorns more than three meters long on the sand in front of it, and the monster also had a steel thorn nailed to its head, and it was rolling in its throat frantically.

The tank unfolds in place. The magic crystal emitter protrudes from its back, and the translucent crystal tube gradually lights up. When the launch tube reached the threshold, there was a bang, and a purple ball of light flew out, but the monster pulled off the steel spike stuck in its head for a moment, and then flashed sideways at lightning speed.

Rumble. A sandstorm swept by, and then there was a large crater in the ground, but the monster was not nearby.

Night Moon reacted the fastest: "Be careful. He dived. ”

Almost as soon as Yeyue finished speaking, a sandbag suddenly bulged on the ground not far away, and then the sandbag quickly rushed towards us. The launcher on the back of the tank quickly turned over. But Yeyue shouted first: "It's too late, avoid it first." The tank reluctantly moved to the side.

The Red Thorn was more nimble than the tank, dodging some distance before suddenly jumping. Although the sky was forbidden here, jumping was not forbidden, and the red thorn that flew into the air shot a row of steel needles downward, and the sandbag was instantly pierced into a hedgehog and stopped moving. The tank saw the opportunity for a magic crystal cannonball to fly past, and with a bang, a green liquid flew all over the sky along with the gravel.

"Good Red Thorn." I gave a thumbs up to Redthorn. "What needle do you use? Is it good? ”

"It's a dull toxin that slows down after poisoning. Because there were more hits, the target stopped completely. ”

"Good." I summoned the phoenix dragon space and took everyone back first, and then shouted to ride the red thorn forward.

Although Redthorn is not a speed-type pet, and second, he is not a mount-type pet, but he can adapt to the desert environment, and he is very large and his pace is not slow, so he is not much slower than a regular mount. Before anyone behind us could catch up, we were already on the road first, and we used the ball to confirm that the next direction was OK and immediately accelerated forward.

The quicksand area itself doesn't seem to be long, and the redthorn runs for a few minutes before it comes to an end. The terrain of this ghost place really doesn't change at all, and the desert terrain suddenly turns into a rocky ground on a dividing line, but the situation on the ground is a little troublesome. Redthorn screamed as soon as he stepped on it, and then quickly retreated.

"What's wrong?" I asked Redthorn.

Redthorn tried the black, rocky ground with one of his front legs again, but immediately pulled back. "The ground is so hot that I can't run on it."

"Hot?" I quickly jumped off Redthorn's back and walked over to the edge of the rocky ground. He took some water from the phoenix dragon space and poured it on the rocks in front of him. As soon as the water touched the rocks, there was a loud sound; A large amount of white mist rose up. "Good guy, the temperature is not low!"

"I'm not such a squeamish creature either. I can handle less than 300 degrees, but this is beyond my limit. ”

"It's okay, that's not a problem. You go back to the Phoenix Dragon Space first, and by the way, call the Night Shadow out. ”

What is a high temperature? Nightmares are creatures that trample on the land of fire. Born fire immunity, this bit of temperature is nothing.

Nightshade whistled as soon as he came out. "Wow! It's so hot! ”

"If it's not a hot area, I won't look for you. Now I'm in a hurry, so let's rush over as fast as I can. I said after jumping on Nightshade's back.

Nightshade snorted, then suddenly jumped onto the hot rock and sped forward. As I expected, Nightshade didn't care about the temperature at all.

The hot rock area is less than a kilometer long, and then there is a magma field. The magma here is different from what we have encountered before, and there are many rocks in the magma river that are higher than the magma and can be used as tower footstones. Nightshade rushed all the way with accurate pace and speed. Even though the strange realm here deprives Nightshade of the ability to fly, his ability to bounce perfectly is still good enough for such minor troubles.

I didn't know how far away my final destination would be, so I didn't dare to delay along the way. As fast as you can, as fast as you can. Who knows if six hours will be enough?

After jumping over the magma river, another hundred meters and the rocky terrain ends. Like the last desert crossing into the rocky area, the transition here is just as sudden. After the hot rocky area, you suddenly enter the crisp meadow. Ahead is the endless savannah. The only thing you can see is a mountain in the distance. I used the pointing ball again, and the result was still a hint forward, and if nothing else, it would definitely be near the mountain. But as the saying goes, looking at the mountain runs a dead horse, and when you see the mountain, it's actually very far away, not to mention looking at the past at present. The mountain is just a faint shadow, and I really don't know how far away it will be.

Nightshade looked at the mountain shadow in the distance and said, "Isn't it really going to be there?" It would take me about an hour to run at my speed! ”

"Isn't it?"

"I'm just a mount-like pet, and I can't even tell the distance. Wasn't that for nothing? ”

Nightshade said that it was so far away, so it was really not close. After thinking about it for a long time, it seems that there is nothing to be done. When encountering monsters, you can also rely on everyone to cooperate with each other to defeat the enemy, but there is nothing here, it's just a long distance, and there is really no other way than to run honestly.

I was thinking about it when I suddenly felt that Nightshade's running state was a little wrong. The bumpy run suddenly calmed down, and this only happened after Nightshade left the ground. As a nightmare, the Nightshadow can fly, but it can't fly because it is suppressed by the forbidden space here. But now he's flying again, which means it's not affected by that realm.

"Can you fly here?"

Nightshade nodded, "Of course, otherwise what do you think I'm doing right now?" ”

"Asuka." Summons the phoenix dragon space again to release the flying bird, and then jumps directly on his back while moving. "Nightshade, you come in first." Nightshadow quickly jumped into the phoenix dragon space. I patted the bird and pointed to the mountains ahead. "Hurry up, rush over as fast as you can."

"Then you're going to have to get it right." After Asuka finished speaking, his body suddenly rolled several times in a row, and his speed increased sharply. I saw that the muscles at the four jet propulsion ports on his wings suddenly contracted, making the jet ports very narrow. The hot gas was all gathered together, and from the nozzle spewed out seven or eight meters of bright white flames, and the sound sounded like cloth had been torn.

"Supersonic assault." The flames behind the birds turned from white to a kind of almost transparent flame with orange red, and our speed suddenly increased several times, and I couldn't breathe under the huge wind pressure, but I didn't want to disturb the birds for the sake of speed, so I tried to endure it first.

I knew that this situation should have sealed the magic dragon helmet first, but now it's good, the air intake of the bird in the ultra-high-speed state has almost drained the air around us, even if it is now with the helmet, it is not meaningful.

Nightshade was fast enough, but his four legs weren't as good as jet thrusters. The bird took me like a missile straight into the mountains ahead, leaving a huge vacuum column behind us that lifted the dirt from the ground. It was as if we had been plowed over the ground, and a wide earthen ditch pointed straight in the direction we were flying.

At this point in the start of the game. The gods of Egypt were gathering to look at a pile of images floating in mid-air. The people in these images are those of us who have taken the test, and everyone has a screen following them, but one of them shows me and Asuka moving at high speed.

Kehopura said with relief: "It seems that this time I really met Su zhì's super high personnel, and the god of La has Xijing this time." ”

Anubis said respectfully, "We don't know where His Highness the Sun God has been teleported to now. I'm afraid that a single victor will not be able to recover His Highness, right? ”

The wisdom god Tetu said: "That's why I proposed to set up such a project, we just screen out unqualified people, but we don't limit the number of winners, if there are many people who meet the requirements, of course, it would be the best, but we must not risk sending unqualified people to the Holy Land of Styx." ”

Anubis nodded: "Does His Highness the Ancestor have any special instructions?" ”

Tetu said: "His Majesty the Water God didn't say anything, but His Majesty the Sun God was asleep, and the Holy Land rejected us, so we had to settle for a while." ”

"Alas......!" Kohopura let out a long sigh. "Speaking of which, it's too unreasonable to pull this kid, and he actually remembered to find the source of the beginning, which is good. I didn't find the source, and I even got into it. Anubis, you say no. ”

Anubis looked embarrassed and said, "In any case, His Highness the Sun God is still the leader, and as subordinates, we have no right to discuss his actions. The status of Lord Scarab is transcendent, and there is no problem. We're ......! ”

Tetu smiled and said, "So Anubis also has times when he obeys the rules?" ”

Tetu's wife, Ma'at, the goddess of truth, said, "I know why Anubis is so serious. ”

Tetu also smiled and said, "I know it too." ”

Kohopura said angrily: "Can't you young generation settle down?" Now that the Styx Sanctuary is missing, are you all working hard? I have a grudge against him, but the rescue must be done well. ”

Anubis's gaze returns to the frame. "This kid is almost out of sight, and at that speed he could be the only one to finish the whole course in two hours."

Tetu nodded and said, "It's a third of the time." This result is really unexpected! ”

Ma'at suddenly said to Tetu, "It's only been twenty minutes now, and at this rate I don't think it's going to take two hours." As long as his watch is as good as it is after that, he should come out in an hour and thirty minutes. ”

Kohopura said to Anubis, "I'm starting to wonder if you can finish the whole race faster than him. ”

"Of course. How can we say that we are also gods? Anubis said confidently.

Tetu reminded, "Don't be complacent. There is nothing to be proud of beyond a mortal. It's time for you to set up the most critical levels, and if this guy gets confused, then we really don't have any hope. I hope such good people will not be fooled. ”

Anubis said, "Although we are gods, we are not omnipotent. At least the human heart is not something we can control. So, now let's take a look at what this guy is with the bottom. ”

The birds, which were rapidly attacking on the prairie, suddenly lost momentum and crashed into the ground with me. I put the bird away in mid-air, rolled on the ground, and slid out of the way before stopping. "It's strange, it flew so well that it actually fell!"

I was complaining to myself. I didn't expect someone to respond, and the voice was still very familiar. No one but Anubis could make that hoarse voice. "You only fell because you entered the confines of the Forbidden Realm again."

"Anubis?"

"It's me."

"What's the matter with you?" Anubis is also one of the referees and must be dealt with carefully.

Anubis said, "Just to give you a hint for the quest, everyone who arrives here will get the same hint." ”

"Okay, let's talk, I'll listen."

Anubis's voice said, "From here you have one more choice. You can choose to continue along and follow the normal quest process to reach your destination, or you can pick up a quest reward and take another path to reach the destination. Of course, it's okay to go back here and follow the normal quest process after you've got your reward, but I'm going to tell you that this is the worst option, as it's the most time-consuming route. ”

"What's the difference between the normal route and the route for getting a reward?"

"There are a lot of differences, and they are everywhere. The obstacles encountered by the two routes differ in order, type and number, but the general route is relatively simple. Although the actual distance of the bonus route is shorter than that of the normal route, the difficulty is also relatively increased, so it will take more time to complete. However, the reason why the reward route is called the reward route is that he can get additional rewards for completing it. While I can't tell you exactly what it is right now, it's definitely a great bonus. Anubis snapped his fingers, and a stone door suddenly rose from the ground, from which a downward tunnel could be seen. This is the entrance to the bonus route, once you walk in, pointing in the direction pointed to the ball will automatically jump to the route map of the bonus route, if you don't want the bonus route, just go straight ahead in the current direction. So, the choice is yours and you can do it yourself. ”

Anubis's consciousness retreated to where the test began, then looked at me in the picture and said, "Just look at this!" ”

In the picture, I looked at the mountains in the distance, then at the tunnel, and finally rushed into the tunnel without hesitation. The gods watching here screamed almost at the same time. Tetu said disappointedly: "It's over!" ”

"It seems that we have to think of another way, or hope that there are qualified people among the remaining personnel. ”

Anubis said: "I don't think I have to give up directly. ”

"Do you have any ideas?" Kohopura asked.

Anubis said, "Maybe he'll be in time?" ”

"How is that possible?" "The journey is less than a kilometer shorter, but the dangerous checkpoints on this road are at least ten times that of the normal route, and he is really superhuman if he can come in time." ”

"Maybe a miracle will happen." Anubis affirmed.

I didn't know that Anubis was arguing over me, and I was digging deeper into the tunnel wondering what the reward would be. The rewards for the first few qualifiers were good, and the rewards for the first level of this regular test wouldn't be too bad.

The tunnel is not very deep, and after walking not far, I feel that the temperature is plummeting, and a huge underground space appears in front of me after a while. The place where I was standing was a protrusion on a cliff that looked like a balcony. Beneath this stone platform is an abyss, with no bottom in sight, and it is also a forbidden space. There was only a slippery ice passage on the platform, except for the entrance I walked up to. This passage extends from the platform all the way to a place that is not visible in the distance.

It seems that this passage is the only one that can be walked, but it is indeed dangerous enough. First, the ice passage was completely suspended and there was no support underneath, and second, the passage was too narrow, less than a foot wide. With such a narrow width, there is such a long distance, and what is worse is that it is made of ice. One foot wide is dangerous enough, and you have to walk on the ice, so it's not dangerous!

To be on or not to be on? That's a problem!
