Chapter 47: The Rotten Heart (1)
After taking on the muse, the little maid, and promising to teach her true masculinity, Evan lived a corrupt life of clothes and food. And the little mare, in order to hone himself and exercise his so-called manhood, willingly served as his running errand.
The two days of calling the muse were wonderful for him as if he were in heaven, and every day was fluttering. However, the good times always pass very quickly, and on the evening of the third day, while Evan was running the Golden Sutra of the Sun, it didn't take long for him to close his eyes and enter the invisible space of the Apostle Shylock on time.
......
In the dimly lit and outdated post station, the old woman who was bloated and decadent, as if she had accumulated countless years, looked at him with a smile:
"See you again, congratulations. ”
“......”
Evan looked at her in confusion, and just wanted to ask where Xi came from, when that mechanical neutral voice came from in his ears.
"Voter No. 54413, congratulations on passing the second stage of the test. Obtain an S-type anti-aging potion, an S-type life potion, and a 300,000-gram gold coupon. ”
"What's going on? I haven't done anything!?" he blurted out.
"No, you've passed the test. ”
The old woman narrowed her wrinkled eyes, revealing a look that she had anticipated, and patiently explained:
Those who choose to drag others into the invisible space in order to continue their lives seem to continue their lives, but in fact they are all abandoned losers. They will be trapped in the cycle of greed for life, and they will never be able to get rid of it. ”
"That's what happened......
Evan was immediately relieved, and his back was also cold, if he was shaken at that time, he would definitely fall into a predicament like Frank, sure enough, it is the mentality that determines fate!
"Quest reminder, the third phase of the trial starts from passing through the post station and entering the center of Flying Squirrel Town, and the task rewards a fragment of invisible power, a gold coupon of three million grams, and a strengthening of the pupil of penetration. This mission can be teamed up, and eliminating competitors can get basic spiritual rewards. The voice came from far away again, as if emerging from the mist, giving him a mysterious feeling.
"Then the third stage of the test, you can choose to stay here like me, or stay with the living dead outside. ”
The old woman crossed her fingers against her abdomen, raised a pair of cloudy eyes, and looked at him with a seemingly calm but sad look:
"Follow your heart and make a choice. ”
"My choice? If I had a choice, I would have taken you with me. This time, Evan looked a little surprised: "I have heard the content of the mission just now, it said that this trial can be teamed, and the two of them will have a good response together, what do you think?"
"Do you think I, an old woman who is dying, can be counted as combative?"
The wrinkled skin on her face drooped, as if she wanted to make a sneering expression, but she failed powerlessly.
Evan shook his head and retorted directly:
"The invisible space is the world of the spirit, and as long as you maintain your fighting spirit, you will definitely have combat effectiveness. Besides, you're old enough to have little time to spare, and you might die one day. Instead of staying here and waiting to die, you should fight with me. ”
“......”
The old woman did not speak, but shook her head repeatedly.
"Well, since you don't want to, I won't force it. ”
Seeing that she really planned to wait for death here, Evan didn't invite her anymore, and went directly through the post station to the starting point of a new round of trials - he had experienced a month of life and death suffering, but it was not to stay here and survive.
......
After Ivan passed through the post station, he was greeted by a patch of green, lined up like armies on both sides. Overhead is a majestic viaduct, and beyond that are cascading clouds, it looks as if you can reach heaven directly.
"The quest prompt says that the third stage allows the qualified to fight each other, and killing people can increase the basic mental power. If I were the rest of the qualified, this viaduct would be the most suitable place to ambush. ”
He thought about it for a while, felt the need to be cautious at this point, and decided to take a detour.
Ignore the overly obvious viaduct, cross the dense greenery, and then dive across the river, and the safety should be relatively high.
Thinking of this, Evan resolutely walked into the green belt, but after walking a few steps, he found a small road leading to the center of the town, surrounded by dense jungle, with vigorous vegetation, and the strange cries of some strange creatures could be heard.
“......”
He pondered for a moment, decisively did not embark on this path, and continued to walk in the green belt.
At this time, the clouds in the sky flowed, obscuring the sunlight on the viaduct, and there was no sound on the bridge, and by the guardrail in the center of the bridge, a lonely black shadow stood. It stared silently at the exit of the inn, motionless, and after a long time, the black shadow gradually dissipated in the gloom.
There was no one in the shade, and Ivan walked alone through the trees, the breeze blowing through the cracks in the trees, and there was a feeling of coldness and coldness, and he had goosebumps all over his body. That kind of cold is different from the cold wind in winter, the cold wind in winter is cold from the outside to the inside, blowing to the body like a knife cut, and this kind of cold is cold from the inside out, which can be cold to the deepest part of the soul.
Even Ivan, who has been trained in extreme cold, is a little uncomfortable in this environment, but it is still within the tolerable range.
Silently passing through the greenery and the river, the first thing that catches your eye is a villa, a building that is out of step with its surroundings. Nestled entirely in the backlit shadows, the roof is towering and compact, looking as if it had been fished out of water, and the whole body is wet and smells of rotten mustiness.
"Quest tip 1, look for the Heart of Decay, which is the proof that the qualified will enter the town center. ”
After hearing the sound of the machine, Ivan squinted his eyes vigilantly and looked at the villa in front of him again.
The overall structure of the building is too tight, not only is there no trace of the presence of balconies, but there are no windows for ventilation, and on the second and third floors, a dilapidated door panel is crumbling, giving people a dilapidated and barren feeling. And not only that, the house was soaked in water and turned gray, and the tone was too gloomy, let alone entering, even standing in front of the gate can give people an oppressive and uneasy atmosphere.
"This is what is called ...... It's the way to go. ”
He took a deep breath and radiated his spiritual power to the limit, and at the same time hunched his back and threw himself forward, jumping into the gate of the villa like a shuttle.
