Chapter 55: The Puzzle

At this time, the end stone forest.

The competition has reached a fever pitch, with all twenty treasure maps being found and the competition becoming more intense. Unlike the initial scruples, some fierce contradictions have already produced the wounded. It's a matter of mentality: at first, they thought "there are still many treasure maps in the back anyway, so there's no rush for this one", but now that there are twelve teams that have passed the finish line, it is naturally easier to escalate the battle with the remaining eight maps.

In fact, it is not difficult to see from the rules that Principal Huang does not emphasize fair and orderly competition, but rather that the rules he set are implying that the teams that can't find the treasure map will break the boat and snatch the results of other teams.

The world of magicians is the world of the few, and it makes no sense to simply emphasize the truth, goodness, and beauty, and if they can do [legally sin], then they can achieve something in whatever they do. On the other hand, a conformist can only be a pig forever.

The Academy of Magic cultivates a small number of people, a place where employers are born, not a training camp for employees. This is one of the reasons why it is favored by capitalists.

"It's okay, aren't you at ease with me?" Principal Huang said into the phone, "They can't come in now, what are you afraid of?" ”

"They haven't moved for too long, that's not their style." Haitian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry, you come here in person." Principal Huang said in a tone that you can do it.

"I'm on the Syrian side now! Damn, they should send some more masters of diplomacy instead of having a master magician stare at them here! Haitian said dissatisfied.

"Now the truce is the limit, right? The two sides, especially the American side, have no intention of stopping. Principal Huang turned to say, "Don't worry, I guess they are far more interested in the Lord of the Demon Capital now than your daughter." ”

There was a cold snort on the other end of the phone, but he didn't refute anything.

"Alright, I know you're upset. Your daughter is in the top three. ”

Haitian said disdainfully: "Isn't this a matter of course? She's my daughter! ”

"Alas, you-" Principal Huang smiled and shook his head, "hang up first, and then another team." You don't know it, I feel like I'm about to turn into a repeater! ”

The underground space always gives people a dark and damp atmosphere, but here it is different, the darkness fills every corner, but it is not gloomy, and the dampness has nothing to do with here, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a creation of God.

"Hey...... Chen Hao, it's too weird here, right? Let's go back! Huang Shen frowned and said, "I don't have much resistance to supernatural events. ”

"But how are we going to get back? The principal also did not give us contact information. Chen Hao said calmly.

"There may only be two possibilities." Wang Si raised two fingers, "First, there must be a team to find the code that the principal said. Or rather, at a certain time, the principal will bring us all back. ”

"I agree with Wang Si. As the principal said, theoretically we won't have any difficult trouble, and even if it's a headless fly, it's better than being in a hurry. Chen Hao proposed.

"Indeed, I don't want to stay here for a second, it's weird here, the map is completely useless?" Huang Shen said.

"It's hard to imagine how the master explored this ruins alone." Wang Si, as the number one fan of the Lord of the Demon Capital, sighed with emotion.

"yes, I'm going crazy by now." Lin and Xi seconded.

Chen Hao casually pointed in a direction: "I'm not sure what the change in the mural means, although there is a high probability that it is an illusion, but I still can't rule out the possibility that the space here will change automatically, after all, it is a relic of a god." ”

"Let's go, let's go! Let's talk as we go! Huang Shen urged. Even if it was the sea of cockroaches at that time, he didn't show such a gaffe, sure enough, everyone has their own flaws, in contrast, in the face of this strange phenomenon, Lin and Xi are much calmer.

I don't know how long it took for a soft blue luster to emanate from the corner, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

"What's that?" Huang Shen asked curiously, and he walked over by himself.

Chen Hao immediately grabbed Huang Shen: "Wait first, be cautious." ”

Huang Shen pursed his lips: "The old man himself said that there is no threat to his life here, what is there to worry about?" ”

After that, Huang Shen pushed away Chen Hao's hand: "Peace of mind, what's the trouble, isn't my space conversion the most suitable for separation?" It's pathfinding, and it's also the most suitable for me. ”

"Okay." Chen Hao no longer stopped it, but he quickly chanted a spell and summoned a humanoid water element, "I'll put it around the corner in a while, and if anything happens, transfer it immediately." ”

"Got it, got it." Huang Shen walked forward disappreciatively.

Everyone was silent, and only Huang Shen's steady footsteps could be heard in the entire passage.

Suddenly, Huang Shen's footsteps disappeared.

Chen Hao glanced at the water element in the corner of the wall - there was no movement.

"Huang Shen?" Chen Hao shouted tentatively. No one answered him.

"What are you kidding, Huang Shen, answer quickly! It's not funny at all! Chen Hao dispersed the water elemental and rushed to the corner alone.

"Chen Hao! Don't be impulsive! Wang Si shouted, but it was too late, and Chen Hao's figure was no longer visible.

"Chen Hao?" Wang Si asked tentatively, and a very ominous premonition surged in his heart.

"It's an enemy attack!" Lin and Xi shouted in horror, "We are being attacked!" ”

Wang Si and Lin and Xi stood back to back, they looked around warily - there was no movement.

"The enemy should be around the corner somewhere, don't let your guard down." Wang Si reminded.

"Is it another student?" Lin and Xi frowned.

"It's hard to say, but I think it's not time for a conflict of interest yet, and the problem of the site itself is more likely."

"Are Huang Shen and Chen Hao in danger?"

"I don't know, if it's a student, it's okay, at least it won't be a dead hand, if it's a ruins...... Now I can only trust the principal, they should be fine. ”

"What do we do next? Is it just going to be wasted all the time? ”

"I don't believe he's going to spend it with us indefinitely -- it's hard to say, it's really bad for us to go on like this, maybe we should take the initiative." After Wang Si made up his mind, he ordered, "Listen, the two of us will go over together in a while, if the other party can only target one person at a time, it is best, the other person must escape and solve this puzzle!" ”

"And what if he could attack two people at the same time?" Lin and Xi asked.

"Even so, two people can take care of each other, and the chances of survival are greatly increased." Wang Si put on a posture after saying that, "Are you ready?" ”

Lin and Xi nodded.

"I'll count one, two, three, and we'll rush over together."

"One, two, three!" After Wang Si finished shouting, the two turned the corner almost at the same time!

"Nothing?" Lin and Xi looked suspiciously at the other side of the empty passage.

"Don't be careless!" Wang Si shouted. Something is wrong, Wang Si looked back at the corner, there was something wrong with this corner compared to just now. What about blue light?

"Lin and Xi, I remember that there should have been blue light here, right?" Wang Si asked while looking around vigilantly.

But there was no voice of Lin and Xi behind him.

"Lin and Xi? Do you hear me? Wang Si quickly turned around, but there was no one behind him.

Except for the deep passage, only the sound of his own heartbeat was throbbing, which made his head swell.

Wang Si didn't say a word, he forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and ran away, his heart was only filled with three words - it's over. But he didn't give up his resistance, he still desperately ran forward.

Even Wang Si himself felt incredible, he actually hid alive on the other side of the corner of the passage.

He gasped as he tried to clear his mind. Undoubtedly, the problem lies in the [Blu-ray]. I just turned my eyes away in less than three seconds, and I actually ...... It's incredible, it's unbelievable! If it weren't for the fact that the enemy could only take one person at a time, the team would have been wiped out!

At the same time, Wang Si couldn't help but regret that if the whole team acted together at that time, it might be advantageous, all of them were too confident in Huang Shen's ability, they really didn't expect that the enemy's speed would be so fast. Unlike Wang Si's guess, Wang Si originally thought that the enemy was just using some means to make Huang Shen unable to use spatial transformation, but now it seems that the other party relied on pure speed.

But there's another problem. The enemy is so strong that it stands to reason that there is no need to hide around the corner. He was very aggressive in the confrontation with us, and he could have come and clean himself up, but he didn't do it - why?

Is it turf awareness? Wang Si was the first to think of this. The strong often do not allow others to trample on their territory at will, and once they step into it, there will be no forgiveness. If you think like this, Huang Shen and they may be more auspicious.

But Wang Si was reluctant to think in this direction. Quite simply, he believed in his master, who was the lord of the Demon Capital. Since Principal Huang said that there is no threat to life, then the terrible master theory is not valid. If you think about it this way, there can only be a limit, whether the enemy is the autonomous system of the ruins or the other students of the magic academy, they can only attack in the shadows for [some reason], which will be his biggest advantage, but in other words, once exposed, he is powerless, and what he has to do is to solve this puzzle!
