Chapter 19: The Trap Tower

Although only two exams have passed, more than seventy percent of the people have been eliminated, and the candidates who have been able to persist until now can be said to have their own unique skills. will not be afraid of unknown challenges, but many people are a little eager to try for the next exam, including Li Jianxing and Xiaojie and others.

Several people came to the exit of the airship, looked down from the airship, and found that the airship was slowly descending, and the landing position was not flat ground, but the top of a tall tower.

The area at the top of the tower is not small, it can be said to be a square, looking at this venue, all the candidates guess in their hearts the tests they may encounter.

The line of sight changed as the airship fell, and with a slight shake, the airship landed on top of the tower. The door of the airship exit slowly opened, Li Jianxing found that Menqi and the three examiners also came to the exit of the airship, and noticed that Menqi was watching him, Li Jianxing nodded lightly at her, and then walked out of the airship in order with all the candidates.

And when Li Jianxing passed by Menqi's side, he heard Menqi say: "You have to be careful, this exam is much more difficult than the previous two, and when you become a hunter, I will come to you." ”

Li Jianxing nodded with a smile, he understood that Menqi had a great impression of him, and Li Jianxing really liked this girl with a little pride, Li Jianxing was not a hypocritical person, he had a good impression of Menqi, and he naturally would not deliberately alienate the other party.

After getting off the airship and coming to the top of the tower, Li Jianxing felt the oncoming wind, which made people feel a burst of coolness. Looking ahead, I saw a man with the Hunters' Guild logo standing in front of everyone, and he said to all the candidates:

"Welcome to the Trap Tower, where the test for the third exam will be held at the top of the tower, and the content of the exam is that no matter what method you use, please get from the top of the tower to the bottom of the tower within seventy-two hours. Candidates who do not complete the exam after 72 hours will be automatically disqualified from the exam. ”

The rules are very simple, everyone understands them, but looking down from the top of the tower, this tower is hundreds of meters high, and it is obviously impossible to go down like this, and none of the candidates here can fall from a height of hundreds of meters like President Nitro, otherwise President Nitro would not be called the strongest person in more than half a century.

However, in the face of such a tower, one of the candidates showed a smug smile: "Hey, hey, I see, just reach the bottom of the tower?" That's my forte! ”

The man stood at the top of the tower and looked at the wall on the side of the tower and said with a smile, "Looking at the size and distance of the gaps between the rocks that make up this tower, it is completely easy to go straight down from the outer wall!" It's so simple, it's so simple! ”

As he spoke, he put into practical action, without any protective measures, grabbed the gap between the boulders of the tower with his bare hands, and quickly climbed straight down the outer wall of the tower, and in the blink of an eye, he dropped a distance of more than ten meters, and soon the person he fixed could no longer see his face clearly.

To be able to do this, it can also be seen that this candidate is not simple, under such conditions, freehand rock climbing, fall into the modern society, I am afraid that even the world's top rock climbing champions will not dare to do this.

But this person did not hesitate in the slightest, and obviously had full confidence in his skills. But at this time, the candidate at the top of the tower heard a strange cry in the distance, turned his head to see, it turned out that there were three fat looking strange birds in the jungle in the distance, and the strange bird quickly flew to the side of the tower The candidate who was climbing quickly was beside him, and one of them opened his claws to grab the candidate directly.

The candidate's hands were clinging to the side of the tower, so there was no way to resist at all, and he could only shout in panic: "Ah, what are you going to do!" Don't come here! ”

And the people at the top of the tower watched the candidate being caught by a strange bird, and flew like this and took him to the jungle in the distance, and the fate of the candidate was self-evident.

Looking at the figure of the strange bird in the distance, the candidates who were a little jealous before were a little gloating at this time, and at the same time glad that they did not go down with them.

What happened to the previous candidate also made everyone give up using the method of climbing to reach the bottom of the tower, and I am afraid that no one here will be able to climb the rock while dealing with those strange birds, except for Sisoka and the unknown candidate No. 301.

Li Jianxing could have used the levitation technique or the feather falling technique to jump directly from the top of the tower, but what happened to the examinee just now made Li Jianxing understand the examiner's thoughts. The examiner arranged for all the candidates to be at the top of the tower, and used strange birds to prevent the candidates from going down from the outer wall, so that the purpose of the examiner was self-evident, that is, to hope that the candidates would find a way from under their feet.

And at this time, if Li Jianxing uses the levitation technique to reach the top of the tower, what awaits Li Jianxing after that is probably a stricter test by the examiner, after all, the examiner of this exam is different from the examiner of those exams in the original world, and the examiner of the hunter exam not only has the right to ask questions, but also has the right to let candidates pass or fail according to their preferences.

In the second exam before, if Menqi only wanted to make some or some people directly fail, President Nitro probably wouldn't bother with it, because it was also her right. It's just that later Menqi actually made all the candidates except Li Jianxing unqualified, which was too much, so President Nitro intervened.

Li Jianxing had already been in the limelight in the second exam, and if the examiner arranged other exams for Li Jianxing because of Li Jianxing's maverick, it would probably go against Li Jianxing's original intention of passing quickly.

Li Jianxing stepped the masonry under his feet, and at the same time began to think, hoping to find some clues. At this time, Kurapika: "Mr. Priest, have you noticed?" In just a moment, many of the candidates have disappeared! Hearing Kurapika say this, Li Jianxing glanced at it and found that the number of people had really decreased.

Li Jianxing closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment, and then said: "This should be some mechanism on the ground that can allow people to directly enter the interior of the tower, and the next test will probably be carried out in the tower." Then Li Jianxing saw Leoli, Xiaojie and Killua also coming over, so he continued:

"I already have a way of finding the mechanism." "Oh! What is the solution? Leoli was the most anxious and immediately asked.

Li Jianxing chuckled and said: "They can reach the mechanism in the tower, it should be these bricks and stones under their feet, we just need to carefully check the state of these masonry, if it is a brick with a mechanism, the joints should be different, and at the same time, if you press down hard, it will also change, just like this piece under my feet." ”

As he spoke, Li Jianxing stepped forward and stomped his foot violently on a stone brick, and sure enough, the stone brick quickly opened, revealing a space that could be entered by a person.

Seeing this entrance, Li Jianxing smiled slightly, it seems that his spiritual induction is really right, when he was thinking about it just now, Li Jianxing tried to use his mental induction to confirm the situation in the tower under his feet, and found that the tower below was divided into different rooms, large and small, and there were people in some rooms, obviously the candidates who had found the organ before, and then Li Jianxing found that there was also a room under several people, and the area of this room was larger than others.

Then Li Jianxing searched in this area, and soon found that there were five identical mechanisms at the top of this room, and Li Jianxing stepped on one of them.

Li Jianxing said to Leoli and them: "I have already observed, this mechanism should be designed, after a person over there goes down just now, the mechanism will be locked, and the people behind will not be able to open the mechanism again, so a mechanism can only let one person pass through, you look carefully, you should be able to find the same mechanism around." ”

Although Kurapika and they didn't have the same mental sensing method as Li Jianxing, they searched around after getting the hint, the underground stone bricks were dense, and it was not easy to find the mechanism in it, and it was also a test of people's concentration and observation to look for them one by one, but after sinking down, the four of them still found the other four organs around one after another.

"So what do we do now?" Leoli put back on the sunglasses he had taken off to find the mechanism, and looked at the location of the five mechanisms, which were not far apart, but they were obviously divergent, so he instinctively thought that everyone would be separated after going down.

Li Jianxing didn't explain, after all, if he said it, he would have to explain his ability, so Li Jianxing said: "It doesn't matter, I believe we will be reunited soon, the time for this exam is only seventy-two hours." ”

Killua also hugged the back of his head a little indifferently and said: "It really won't be long, the important thing now is to complete this exam first, maybe we will meet soon, there should be a common place inside this tower, right?" ”

"Alright then, let's shout 123 together and go down through the entrances we found together." Kurapika said in a serious tone. Then everyone went to the mechanism they found and counted together: "One, two...... Three! "Then the tower opened the trap together!

Other candidates not far away heard the sound and saw the movements of several people, and some of them suddenly realized and began to look for the mechanism. Some of the candidates also went to the offices of the five people, tried them one by one, and found that they were all locked, so they could only turn to other places and start looking.

After jumping from the mechanism, Li Jianxing quickly felt that he had fallen to the ground, it seemed that the room was not too high, and Xiao Jie and the others were also standing not far in front of him as expected. They apparently noticed this very quickly, and Leoli was the first to come back to his senses, and said with some embarrassment, "Uh...... What a short separation! ”

However, thinking that everyone was together, his mood immediately improved: "It seems that although there are several entrances to the passage, we happen to be divided together, so our worries just now are really a little redundant." ”

At this moment, another voice appeared in the room: "Hello everyone, I am the examiner of the third round of the hunter exam, and I am also the person in charge of this trap tower, Webber, next I will explain the content of the exam that the five of you will face, please put the five electronic watches hanging on the wall on your hands." ”

Several people scanned the walls of the room, and soon noticed the five electronic watches hanging on the wall, Li Jianxing picked one up and observed it, and found that there was a time indication on the watch, which showed seventy-one hours and fifteen minutes, which should be the remaining exam time for this exam, and there were only two buttons under the time screen, one was ○ and the other was × according to the mark above.

When all five people bring their watches, it means that the third exam is about to officially begin.
