CH.33 Trial
The flames stretched from behind the door, and I don't know where they went. The heat, which was enough to melt everything, pounced out from behind the door and sprayed on the two of them.
It didn't take long for Anrui and Nissa to sweat on their faces.
"How can there be such a big fire here?" Nissa stared at the flames in front of her in amazement, the light of the flames dancing in her eyes.
"This is the test left to you, you have to pass through the sea of fire to be able to get the blood inheritance." An Rui said calmly.
"Luckily, I'm a fire wizard, and I'm proficient in the magic of manipulating fire." Nissa raised her palm and aimed it at the sea of fire, which was about to cast her magic.
"You can't deal with these flames with your magic, don't forget who made these flames, you use magic indiscriminately, it will only add fuel to the fire and make the fire here burn even more." An Rui hurriedly stopped.
"You can't use magic to expel the flames here, so how do you get through here, you can't just walk over there."
"You guessed it right, the way to get through here is very simple, just be brave enough to walk straight over. However, ordinary people can't get by, and they must have people with Parker family blood to get through. You are a descendant of the Parker family, and as you walk past them, the flames will naturally separate and make way for you. ”
"Do you really want to walk straight over?" Nissa said in surprise.
"That's right." An Rui made a gesture of please to the raging flames, "Your Majesty, Great Island Lord, please." ”
Walking directly into the flames is easier said than done. Rao is Nissa's heart. After hesitating for a long time, he mustered up the courage to take a step and walked towards the flames with his chest straight. The further you go. The higher the temperature she felt, the hotter she toasted, and her skin took on a delicate flush.
The heat was terrifying, almost to the point of igniting objects in the air.
Enduring the heat, Nissa crossed the threshold and walked to the edge of the flames. She closed her eyes and stepped into the flames. A miraculous scene happened, and the moment that foot stepped on the flames, the flames retreated. Get out of the way!
Where the flames were freed up, ordinary floor tiles were exposed.
Seeing this, Anrui smiled with satisfaction and walked after Nissa. He has no Parker ancestry. Nissa can only be borrowed as a "fire extinguisher". Avoid the surrounding flames.
"The flames actually retreated." Nissa felt that her feet were okay, and slowly opened her eyes, and said with a sigh of relief.
"I said that the flames would retreat, and they would definitely retreat, and I couldn't be wrong." An Rui wiped the sweat from his forehead, "But it's still hot here, you better hurry up." The longer you stay here, the more you suffer. ”
Nissa nodded. Be the first to go, every step she takes. The flames retreated a point. Anrui followed, not daring to distance himself too far, and at this time he was only a yard away from Nissa in front of him, and he could vaguely smell the fragrance wafting in front of him.
After the two of them went deep into the sea of fire, the clearing that had been vacated before was once again surrounded by flames, blocking their way.
The burning corridor was shorter than the previous one, and the two of them finally reached the end of the fire after walking for a while in the heat.
At the end is another door.
"What's behind the door?" Nissa asked.
"The second test." An Rui replied.
"This test is a riddle?" Nissa remembered what Anrui had said before, and now, she didn't dare to underestimate any of Anrui's words.
"Yes."
"What is the answer to the riddle?"
"I'll tell you the riddle when I see it, maybe you can guess it yourself."
"That's right, after all, this is a test for me." Nissa was a little more arrogant in her words, and she reached out and pushed the door open.
It was cold behind the door, there wasn't even a spark, and there were many points of light floating in mid-air, illuminating the place. It was no longer a corridor, but a room, and in the center of the room stood a stone tablet with a full hourglass. The stele was bare and empty.
"Let's go inside." Anrui couldn't stand the flames anymore, so he jumped into the opposite room, bypassing Nissa's body. After landing, it was finally much cooler.
Nissa followed.
As soon as both of them entered, the door closed on its own, keeping the flames out.
The moment the door closed, the originally bare stele immediately burst into light, revealing a riddle.
……
You look at me, and I look at you.
But you see with your eyes, and I don't, because I don't have eyes.
You can say it, and I can say it.
But you have a voice, I am silent, and there are empty lips one by one.
……
At the same time, the hourglass above the stele began to slip, and wisps of sand leaked from the small hole into the belly of the bottle below, as if counting down.
"What would happen if the hourglass streamer?" Nissa looked at the sand and felt bad.
"If you can tell the answer, the hourglass will stop and the door will open, and if we don't tell the mystery by the time, we're in bad luck...... So, you'd better guess quickly, and if you haven't guessed halfway through the hourglass, I'll tell you the final answer. An Rui explained. He already knew the answer to this riddle.
Nissa nodded, and instead of asking what would happen after the deadline, she held her chin in her hand and looked at the riddle on the stone tablet with a pensive look.
The passage of sand makes one feel the passage of time, and time waits for no one.
Instead of urging Nissa, Anrui stood silently, occasionally fiddling with the points of light that were wandering in mid-air. The wizard's methods are truly miraculous enough to create such a place full of miracles. It's a pity that he is a dragon warrior, not a wizard, and has no ability in this regard.
"The mystery is a mirror!"
When a third of the hourglass was gone, Nissa's eyes lit up and she blurted out.
The sand in the hourglass suddenly stopped flowing like a brake.
There was a soft creak, and the door in front of them opened, opening the way for the two of them to move forward.
By all indications, Nissa was right.
When people look in the mirror, the image in the mirror is also looking at the person.
People can speak, but mirrors can't.
"That's smart." An Rui applauded in approval, when he did this task, he did it by looking at the strategy, rather than relying on his own mind to guess the answer.
"It's okay." Nissa raised her red hair slightly and shook the fiery hair behind her head, "You mentioned three tests, and the next one is the last one." ”
"Yes, the last and most difficult test is next, and I can't help you with this test, it's all up to you. All I can do is give you a hint. ”
"What's the hint?"
"Good people are rewarded." (To be continued......)
