299 Trials of Courage

"Caster, the first trial you're going to complete is called the Courage Trial. ”

"What do you mean by a trial of courage?" Kerst didn't quite understand.

"Look there!" the Grand Elder looked up, motioning for Kerst to follow his gaze, where there was a protruding mound to the east of the Dragon's Lair.

That mound, in our dragon language, is called "Quelsala", which translates to your human language as "Tower of Courage." ”

"Tower of Courage?" said Koster several times, "is there anything special about it?"

"Hehehehehe, you'll know it in the past. Be careful!" Before the Great Elder's words fell, Kester only felt a violent wind around him, and the Great Elder soared into the air with lightning speed, his huge golden body went straight into the sky, and the giant claws grabbed Kester and headed towards the Tower of Courage.

The clouds on the cloud looked around carefully, it turned out that the mounds within the dragon's lair seemed to be all tower-shaped buildings, "Shouldn't there be a tower of determination and a tower of wisdom?"

In just a few moments, the Great Elder flew over the Tower of Courage, "Koster, concentrate, now you will begin the trial." You only get one chance to be tried, understand?"

Kist nodded hurriedly, and the next second, the Great Elder let go of his claws.

Feida was still in place, watching a dark shadow fall from the Tower of Courage, and her heart fluttered, "Casther!"

Of course, Feida's exclamation, at this time, Kerst naturally could not hear it.

In fact, Kerst was unconscious again.

Looking at the familiar blank void environment around him, Kerst was a little puzzled, whether it was the Great Elf King or the Dragon Elder, these big people who were proficient in magic always liked to communicate in the spirit world.

But I'm just an ordinary human being.

Chester groped his way to his feet, it was indeed nothing, and as soon as he moved his steps, he suddenly heard the sound of "bang, bang, bang". Koster looked down and saw water under his feet. I don't know when, I actually found myself in a puddle.

"What's going on?" Kerst was still confused, but the water in the waterhole was rising suddenly.

At this time, Kester looked around, and there was no land exposed to the water at all. As the water gradually rose, it had reached the ankles, knees, and waist.

"It's over!" exclaimed Kerst in a nervous whisper, running around a few steps in a panic before coming to a halt abruptly, "No, it can't be like this!" Kerst shook his head.

He was right, there was water as far as the eye could see, and there was no place to stay. No matter how fast Kester ran, he couldn't escape.

The time to think passed quickly, and the water surface was rising higher and higher, and it was already up to the neck.

"Calm down, calm down! This is a trial, not death, there must be a way to crack it!" Kerst forced himself to calm down, although the seemingly rising water was completely unsolvable, but as he thought, this was a trial. There is no trial of cracking the way, it is sent to death.

Calmly glancing around, some ripples on the surface of the water caught Kerth's attention, and on those ripples, there were actually some bubbles bubbling up, "poof, poof, poof".

"There's a play!" exclaimed Kerster, and after taking a deep breath, a thummer plunged into the water. Although the water nature of Kerter is not too good, it is not so much to take care of at this time!

Sure enough, when I went down to the bottom of the water, I found that there were strings of bubbles emerging from the bottom of the water. On the water, if you blindly dodge, it is impossible to find the trick of the bottom.

Kerst swam quickly towards the bubble column, and as he approached the side, he continued down the bubble column. Only by finding the source of the bubbles can you find the air you can breathe.

He felt less and less air in his lungs, and he swam deeper and deeper, and after a long time, a bright light began to appear.

Ukster was completely unaware of how long he had been swimming, and it seemed that time and space had lost their meaning here. One moment, I was still standing on the ground, and there was water surging up, but the next moment, the surface of the water had turned into a deep ocean.

As the light approached, Kerter also saw the source of the light. I don't know if I don't see it, but I was startled when I saw it, and the bright light was actually the two eyes of a dragon, flickering with light. And those bubbles were actually the air exhaled by the dragon, and the dragon's mouth was open.

"Thisβ€”" Chester didn't know what to do, the burning sensation in his lungs that was getting more and more painful made him hesitate any longer. "Die or die!" said Koster slid his arms and headed for the dragon's mouth.

Slipping out of the vessel, Kerst felt like he was passing through a thin veil, and the sticky feeling made him feel uncomfortable.

However, the next moment, the freshness and joy of fresh air rushing into his lungs made Chester feel relieved.

It was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my fingers. But the water around him has disappeared, replaced by an endless sense of emptiness. Koster's eyes widened, still unable to see anything.

Gradually, a glimmer of light appeared in Koster's heart, and the feeling was quite strange, even though it was still dark in front of him, Koster still felt that he was seeing something.

From vagueness to clarity, Kerst gradually finds himself back in the void. The water that had just swallowed himself had disappeared, and there was not a drop of water stains on his clothes, and it was as if nothing had happened.

It's just that there is still a burning pain in Koster's lungs.

The next moment, a figure appeared in front of Koster, and when he looked at it, Koster couldn't close his mouth in surprise. The young man on the other side, with a sturdy figure, wearing a general's robe and a silver sword, his young face was so familiar.

"You, are you me?" was surprised because the image of the person opposite was actually his own appearance.

"No, I'm not you!" said Koster on the other side.

"And who are you, and why am I the way I am?"

"No, I'm not you, I'm Taring Bancroft of the Tower of Courage, and I'm in charge of testing the challengers who came to the Tower of Courage. As for my image, it doesn't matter. ”

"Well, it doesn't matter, it's just that it looks really weird!" Kerst scratched the back of his head, dumbfounded.

"Aren't you used to it? Taling spun around on the spot, and a whirlwind turned, and Kerst couldn't laugh even more.

Taling took on the form of Feda.

"Feida, oh no, Mister Tarling, can you change your image again?" asked Kerst weakly.

"Hahahaha", Taling's laughter spread throughout the space.

In the end, under the strong request of Khor, this Taling turned into the appearance of a dragon, although the appearance of the dragon is a little scary, but Kester, who has been with Kaka for a considerable time, can finally accept it.

"Then, Mr. Taling, the Great Elder said that I was here for the Courage Test, please test me. Kerst asked respectfully.

"You've passed the Courage Trial, you've passed, Kerst!" said with a smile, "You've passed, haven't you noticed?"

"Huh, that piece of water?"

"Yes. The surface of the water was simulated by my magic, and it was very spiritual. There are three choices you have to make: first, dive into the water before it reaches your neck, second, follow the bubbles into the dragon's mouth, and third, spend the darkness alone in the dragon's belly until I show up. ”

"That's it?" Kerst wondered.

"That's all!" Taling's reply was categorical.

"Then what kind of truth is this, this test of courage is too child's play!"

Tary smiled and walked into Kester, lowering his huge transfiguration dragon head, "No, Kxter, you're wrong. It's not easy, and making that choice in such a short period of time is a testament to what it takes to pass the test of courage. Trials don't have to be nine deaths. Trials test your reaction in a short period of time and your most original mind. Congratulations, in you, I see the courage required for this trial. ”

Taling's words surprised and delighted Kerster, and even a little incredulous, "I'll pass this?"

"It's passed. But you have to be careful, the next few trials will not be so easy!"

As Taling's words ended, Kester once again felt himself trapped in a boundless void, unable to see anything around him. But now that he's more experienced, he knows that he should be back to normal after just a few moments.

And in another spiritual space that Chester couldn't see, Taling was talking to the Grand Elder of the Dragon Clan:

"You're too fake, the human doesn't believe it. Talin's expression was a little skeptical.

And the Great Elder of the Dragon Clan still had the same smile on his face, "Oh, don't care so much. Now that there has been no dragon knight trial for so many years, how can an unprepared young man like Vester pass like this. The situation on the mainland is erosive, and we still need an excellent young man like Kster, everything is simple, everything is simple. ”

If Rang Kist heard the words of the Great Elder of the Dragon Clan at this time, he would definitely faint in surprise. What he and Taling mean is clearly to put water on Kester.

It's just that, of course, Kerst can't see it. By this time the darkness around him had gradually dissipated, and Koster rubbed his eyes to find himself sitting on the earthen platform called the Tower of Courage.

Kerst got up and looked around, and the Tower of Courage seemed to be a little too quiet. Suddenly, Kerster, who seemed to sense something, looked up at the sky, only to find that the huge body of the Great Elder was hovering above his head.

"Great Elder!" Kster shouted, but before he could say anything, the Dragon Clan Grand Elder grabbed Kster with his claws first, "Don't talk yet, concentrate, let's go to the next trial!"

The Grand Elder of the Dragon Clan flapped his wings a few times and led Kerst to the southeast, where there was another earthen platform.

"Where is that, Grand Elder?" asked Koster in the air, shouting with all his might.

"It's the Tower of Wisdom, Koster, and you're going to face a trial of wisdom next!"
