Chapter 72: The Lord of Despair
"Is the challenge at this level ......?"
Lu Lie suddenly seemed to understand something. It was only when he stepped into the tenth layer that he imagined that the challenge he was about to face was a terrifying beast from the Wilderness, or an almost impossible task. It's just that what he couldn't have imagined anyway was that the challenge of the tenth layer turned out to be-
"You're right. The mysterious voice continued to haunt the temple, "The challenge of the tenth layer is me. In other words, the conversation between me and you is the challenge of the tenth level. ”
"It's kind of interesting. So how can I defeat you? Are the two of us squirting here like shrews scolding the streets? Whoever can't stand it first is the loser?"
The voice replied, "Of course not." The difference between us is that when I think you've won, you can get out of here. I'll let you go to the tenth floor. ”
Lu Lie was almost amused: "Damn, no wonder the previous Aguston said that the entire Tower of Despair was a big scam. It turns out that the victory or defeat of this tenth layer is that if you say I win, I will win, and if you say I lose, I will lose. Then I'm still a fart, you are a referee and an athlete, as long as you are willing, I am afraid that the most eloquent guy in the world will not be able to pass you. ”
In the darkness, the voice calmly interrupted Lu Lie's words: "You can rest assured of this, because I said that I will convince you of losing." Although there was nothing wrong with what that Aguston said...... This Tower of Despair was originally a hoax. ”
"I'm only going to ask you one question, and if you can't answer it, then you've lost. If you can answer, then you have cleared the entire Tower of Despair, and you can proceed to the eleventh floor to meet the Lord of Despair. ”
Lu Lie was so angry in his heart, the other party still didn't say, how to lose or win, I'm afraid that he can just say that the dead man is alive, and the other party will let him obediently roll away to the long river of the universe. What kind of-fart convinces me to lose, as soon as I hear this, I just didn't plan to let myself win. But what can I do now, after all, on other people's territory, this game that must be lost seems to have to be taken hard.
If you are on it, you have to go up, and you have to go up if you don't go up.
"Ask, old dog. Lu Lie said. Of course, he didn't say the word old dog, but just scolded in his heart.
"That question is," the eyes of the demon statue in front of you began to glow strangely, "now that you already know, this Tower of Despair itself is a dream, and the Eleventh Layer of Despair Lord's way of fulfilling your dream is to make you fall into a false dream. And even if you choose to ask the Lord of Despair to leave the dream, the answer will be to be thrown into a new dream, and in this dream you will think that you have escaped from the dream - so what is such a real and valid wish?"
"You don't have to give me the answer to this question, you just have to think of it in your heart. Before this hourglass is finished, you have to come up with the answer. If you still can't give an answer after the hourglass is over, or if you give the wrong answer, then you have lost the game. ”
"Otherwise, you win. ”
A small black hourglass appeared on top of the demon statue, and the sand above continued to leak downward. This hourglass also means Lu Lie's life.
"So this is the test of the tenth layer?" Before thinking about it, a mocking smile appeared on Lu Lie's face, "I thought it was difficult to play the game on the tenth layer. In my opinion, it's not as difficult as the gambling room on the second floor!"
A few seconds after the hourglass appeared, Lu Lie said slowly: "I have already given the answer to this question in my heart. ”
"You ......"
With a creak, the black hourglass shattered, and countless grains of sand scattered in all directions, and a crystal light illuminated the entire tenth floor of the Tower of Despair.
"Impossible, this impossible! What is in your mind, how can you possibly give the answer to this question?"
The voice roared loudly, as if it couldn't believe it. The twisted, vicious voice echoed throughout the tenth floor of the Tower of Despair: "There is no way that anyone can answer this question!
"Something must have gone wrong for my hourglass to break! yes, it must be like this...... But why is my soul gradually dissipating, and what is wrong?"
The voice roared and eventually turned into a miserable, helpless wail that eventually dissipated throughout the temple. The echo lingered for a long time.
There was a loud creak, and a crack appeared on the demon's statue, and then it split in two. The eleventh floor of the Tower of Despair was right in front of his eyes.
The tenth floor of this Tower of Despair, the final level, ended in this way.
Lu Lie touched his head helplessly, and left this last sentence before leaving the tenth layer: "Well, at least you are still a trustworthy guy." At least, after giving the right answer in my mind, you really let me go through this tenth level. ”
He took a big stride and reached the eleventh floor of the Tower of Despair.
......
Waiting for him on the tenth floor of the Tower of Despair was a black figure sitting on a chair with its back to him.
Lu Lie narrowed his eyes, trying to see the back clearly. But when it was hell to see, no matter how hard he tried to squint his eyes or concentrate, the back of the Lord of Despair was always a vague outline in his vision, uneasily twisted in place. I can't see the real appearance of the back at all.
"Are you the Lord of Despair?" When Lu Lie stepped into the eleventh layer of this legend, which no one had visited for tens of thousands of years, he kept thinking about what the Lord of Despair looked like. Unexpectedly, the result was that the other party stood in front of him and couldn't see clearly. It is not a loss that it is the embodiment of dreams, and its strength has reached a level that Lu Lie cannot imagine.
"Waiting here is naturally the supreme creator and manager of this Tower of Despair, the Lord of Despair. The figure didn't look back, and in the most calm, yet magical, voice, "To be honest, I didn't think that anyone in this world would be able to answer the question of the tenth level of innocence and come here. ”
"So let's talk about it, what is the answer you gave in your heart, the answer that finally killed Innocent?"
