Chapter 34: Puzzle solving

Walking the mí palace, especially the unfamiliar mí palace, is really the more stupid the method, the more effective.

It's like now, a group of ten people are slowly moving forward against the wall, even if they encounter an intercepted monster on the way, they will not easily leave the wall along the way, with such persistence, they will soon see the results.

After passing around a corner, the priest found a very unnoticeable gap. This gap is hidden in a corner and is small enough to accommodate only one person to walk sideways. Not only that, but its location is also very clever, it is actually in the blind corner of the basement light, it is already dark here, and there is no fire in that gap, it is just hidden in the dead corner, if it is not for mō walking over the wall, I am afraid that no one will be able to detect this gap with the naked eye.

"Ah, it's actually here." The pastor was amazed: "I have been going back and forth here so many times, and I haven't noticed a single one, which is too hidden." Several people expressed their admiration at the hidden position of this gap, and Ye Ci just stood at the back of the line and smiled silently.

In fact, the Í Palace Quest requires not only the player's brain, but also the player's observation and cooperation skills, only in this way can the É Palace Quest be cracked as soon as possible.

After a few people discussed the gap for a while, they all looked back at Ye Ci and said, "Childe, are we going to go in now?" ”

"I'm at the forefront with the thieves, I suspect that there is a mechanism inside, and your legal profession is careful to protect yourself." Ye Ci looked at the back of the black gap and said naturally.

The existence of thieves in the team is to improve the survival rate of the whole team, so in the desert dungeon, thieves are generally probing, and their perception is very high, so that they can feel the existence of various mechanisms in the dungeon. However, in this team, Ye Ci still decided to explore the path in front with the thieves, not because she didn't believe in the thieves' technology, but as the captain of the team, she needed to go to the front and think about how to clear the entire dungeon would be faster.

The two high-perception career pathfinders were really fast. Although there was darkness behind the gap, it did not pose any threat to the progress of the entire team, and Ye Ci used her high sense to constantly command the eight players who followed behind her.

At first, the eight players weren't used to walking by hearing like a blind man, but after getting used to it, everyone became familiar with it and moved a little faster. The thieves at the forefront were very careful along the way, stopping from time to time to shake their heads and look for mechanisms. His proficiency in dismantling the mechanism is still very high, and he has dismantled one mechanism in a row along the way, and only one of them has been dismantled, but fortunately, the priests and priests in this team have more milk, so that the whole team has no danger when passing through the ground thorn mechanism.

Soon, the bottom of the road has been reached.

However, it seems that there is no way forward, there is only a wall here, and there is not even a single gap in the seams.

A group of people kept mō at the end of this dead end, and did not find anything particularly abnormal, but Ye Ci stood in front of the wall, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the masonry on the wall, the slightly rough marks seemed to be a little different. She quickly took out the torch she had with her, lit it, and raised it above her head to shine on the wall.

I only found that there seemed to be a lot of strange patterns carved on the wall, but I couldn't see any clues.

"What is this?" One of the MTs stared left and right at the marks on the wall, but couldn't see anything.

Ye Ci also stared at the wall, only to see that the masonry coming out of the lower right corner of the wall was smooth and blank, and it looked out of place with the whole wall. Suddenly, Ye Ci seemed to think of something, she asked the people around her to hold the torches, and she retreated a distance, and then looked at the wall, and smiled: "This is a puzzle." ”

"Puzzles?" Several people apparently did not think of this answer.

"You can see it from a distance." As he spoke, Ye Ci commanded a mt to try to move the masonry on the wall, and sure enough, it could be moved. Now that it is determined what it is, it is much easier to decipher, and the three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, even if the puzzle is more complicated, but under the collective wisdom of so many people, this puzzle is completed in less than three minutes.

At the moment when the puzzle was completed, everyone found that the ground under their feet began to vibrate strongly, which made people feel a little uneasy, but the system did not prompt any danger or anything like that, Ye Ci did not move, quietly waiting for the past of the vibration, and the others saw that Ye Ci did not move, so they did not panic, and followed her to stand in place and wait for the past of the vibration.

The vibration became stronger and stronger, Ye Ci calmly looked around, only to see that the wall carrying the puzzle mural did not move and open as she expected, but opened the wall on the right hand side of the puzzle, which is a bit contrary to normal people's thinking. However, since there is an exit, there is no need to stay here and wait.

The wall on the right hand side slowly moved away, and the vibration of the ground became more and more violent, Ye Ci's heart suddenly rose a thought, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to come back to the place I was walking now, and I didn't know why I had this thought, anyway, Ye Ci thought of it and said in the team channel: "Everyone follow me and stand to the gap where the wall is removed." ”

Everyone immediately followed Ye Ci, and just when a group of people were standing in the gap, they heard the system prompt: "You don't know what strange device has been touched, the whole basement began to tremble violently, you look at the stones and dust that keep falling from the top of your head, and suddenly a bad thought rises in your heart, maybe this place is about to collapse......"

After this narrative prompt ended, the soft but cold female voice of the system replied: "The tunnel began to vibrate strongly, and it was about to collapse, and the countdown to escape began to ...... ten seconds."

As soon as Ye Ci heard this prompt, he immediately shouted: "Hurry up and run!" With that, she was the first to run into the passage where the wall was cracked, and the teammates behind her jumped into the passage without thinking about it, and kept running.

"Pay attention to the Fa profession to drink the acceleration potion, don't be buried!" They had just jumped into the passage, and where they had been standing a second before, a lot of rubble fell from the ceiling, and the gravel fell faster and faster, as if chasing their footsteps, following them quickly. Ye Ci glanced back, and the last ones were mages and priests, both of which were indispensable professions in the team, and they must not be left behind, so while running for their lives, Ye Ci did not forget to remind everyone to drink some potions quickly.

The player who can enter the second group of the daily upward group is definitely not a straw bag, although it is not a top player, but the awareness is absolutely good. Before Ye Ci shouted out to let them take the medicine, several legal professions had already begun to dig out the acceleration potions in their pockets, and after hearing Ye Ci's words, they poured these potions into their mouths without any scruples, and then rushed forward lifelessly.

This passage is narrow and long, and it is dark and I don't know where it leads, but fortunately, there is no perversion on this road to design any mechanism, and a group of people just bury their heads and rush forward. The falling rocks in the back fell more and more, falling faster and faster, and finally not only the French profession was drinking the acceleration potion, but even the MT of the warrior began to drink the potion.

A minute is usually considered so short, but now, without exception, everyone feels that this time is so long, as if it can't be consumed no matter how much it is consumed. Just when everyone felt as if they had run for 10,000 years, the thief who rushed a little behind Ye Ci shouted in surprise: "I see the light, I can go out immediately, come on, everyone!" ”

This news was undoubtedly like a shot in the arm, and it immediately lifted the mood of all the players, and it seemed that even their steps became a lot lighter, and everyone gritted their teeth and made a final sprint.

I felt that there was a sudden light in front of me, and everyone jumped out of the narrow and slender passage and appeared in a hall. And just after everyone rushed into the hall, only a few loud rumbling noises were heard, and when they looked back, the passage they rushed out of was already blocked by boulders.

It seems that the only way to go forward is to go forward, this copy of the mí palace has blocked all the ways for everyone to retreat, and now the only way left is to go forward.

After a short break, everyone began to look at the hall, only to see that in the middle of the hall was actually a chessboard. Judging from the chess game, the two sides of Othello are fighting in full swing.

The hall is a confined space, and the only way out has been blocked, so the only clue to get out of here is the unfinished game of chess in front of you.

Ye Ci stretched out his hand to pick up the black chess, but not only did he not want to move half a point, but he also got a system prompt: "Your chess piece is white." ”

It seems that the only way to get out of here is to finish this game, with white on the player's side and the system on the black side. There was nothing difficult about this setting, but ...... Ye Ci doesn't know how to play chess, not only does she not know how to play chess, but she is actually not very good at all chess and card games.

No way, no one is perfect, Rao is a game master like Ye Ci, and he also has strengths and weaknesses.

She looked at the endgame, scratched her head, turned to the individual in the team and said, "Which of you can play chess?" ”

Actually, at this time, Ye Ci was already prepared for the worst, no one would go down, just take a few steps randomly, lose to the system, and find a way to solve the punishment. The reason why Ye Ci thinks this way is that he has pinched the key to the game company's design of the game - the planning will never make a problem that players cannot overcome.

Just like the current game of chess, the planner may be a chess master, but he definitely can't guarantee that all players will play this thing, after all, this thing is not as common as backgammon and flying chess, so even if the player loses to the system, there must be a way to pass this difficulty.

It is precisely with the experience of the previous life and ten years of game that Ye Ci is not worried about this problem.

However, she didn't expect that there was really one person in this team who could play chess, and it was the warlock. He put away his staff and said, "I'll try it." He walked to the front of the chessboard, observed the chess game, and after looking at it for a while, he sighed: "This game is a bit difficult, I don't guarantee that I will win, especially from the current chess game, white has been temporarily at a disadvantage." ”

Everyone told him not to have a psychological burden, so the warlock took a few deep breaths and began to play chess.

It wasn't until after they started playing chess that Ye Ci and the rest knew the true purpose of designing this chess game. It turns out that the system defaults to an optimal solution, white moves or so can beat black, but, in these twenty moves, if white makes a mistake, an elite monster will appear in the lobby, the attack and defense are very strong, the player must destroy it within two minutes, otherwise, after two minutes, it will be full of blood.

This is not the most perverted, the most perverted thing is that for each move, the system gives the player the default maximum thinking time is also two minutes, if these two minutes have passed, the player has not figured out how to take the next step, then the system will default to the player to make the wrong move, and will brush another elite monster......

As for the player who walks correctly, a colored ball will also be spawned in the lobby to add a valid high-level buff for up to two hours, and all the buffs will not be repeated and overshadowed by each other.

When the warlock took a few steps, everyone figured out the way between them, this buff must be absolutely effective for the following battles, and the elite monster is consuming the player's supplies and stamina, so that the player's chances of winning the next battle are lower. After knowing this setting, the pressure on the warlock suddenly increased a lot, and he had to think about every move, and he had to figure out the best move before putting down the piece.

In this way, under the defense of the warlock's high spiritual concentration and the pressure of others, the warlock finally finished this game of chess, three more moves than the system's default best solution, which means that Ye Ci only added seventeen buffs, and killed three elite monsters, although it is not a grand slam, but this result is already very good.

Anyway, Ye Ci was very satisfied with such a result.

Just as the warlock had taken his last step, before he could express his nervousness, he saw a wall in front of him suddenly fall, and a huge deep valley appeared in front of everyone...... RO！。
