Trap or trial?
Trap or trial?
At the moment when Jue finished saying the name of the sword that killed the God King, the temple began to shake.
"What's wrong?" Acxia panicked.
"Looks like some kind of trap has been triggered. Jue looked around calmly.
"Well, did you trigger some kind of condition? If you attacked the stone statue just now, it should be regarded as disrespectful to the god Shura. Nine times out of ten, it's a deadly trap. Jue analyzed.
"Thank you for the perfect explanation!But senior!We, we don't have time to enjoy the scenery!And, why are you so calm!?" said Aksya, hugging a stone pillar next to him.
"Rudeness to Shura is rudeness to the God King!" a voice came from all directions of the temple.
"Ah, the guards?" Jue looked at the stone statue.
"Senpai!" said Axia in a tone that seemed to give up, "the floor, cracked." ”
"Oh, yes······" With Jue's tail note and Axia's screams, Jue and Axia fell into the ground.
It's been a long time.
"Huh, I'm not dead?" Alexia used all her strength to push open the pile of rocks that was pressing on her back.
"Of course, I'm under you. A male voice came.
"Oh! it's Senpai!" said Axia, looking directly below her.
"I know you're happy that you're not dying this time, but can you get off me? Jue gently poked Alcia's head with his finger.
"Woo! I'm sorry!" said this, and Axia realized this, and left Jue's body like a frightened kitten.
"So, what now? It's sealed. Aksia said.
Jue looked up, and the hole that had originally fallen had been automatically restored. In other words, Jue and Axia are trapped here.
Jue looked around again and said, "The walls here seem to be artificially chiseled into the holes, and there are some unknown strange statues around. It's not like a trap, it's supposed to be deliberately made to fall off. ”
"yes!" said Axia as he began to look around. They now sit in the middle of an altar, with a corridor on the other side of the altar.
"Do you want to go?" asked Axia.
After investigating the stone mill just now, Jue said, "There's no way, I can only try, let's go." ”
The two walked down the hallway.
"Dead end?" said Axia as he looked ahead.
"Well, not really. Jue stepped forward and began to touch the wall in front of him.
"Here!" Jue knocked on the wall and found a hole. Then he put his hand in.
"Be careful, senpai. ”
"If you're worried about me, you can replace me. Jue said.
"What if it's a trap?"
"You're a god afraid of this, you're a member of the Protoss!"
Axia stared at Jue's hand for a while, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "Okay, I'll come!"
After Jue and Axia exchanged, Axia regretted it a little.
"What is this? It's sticky and slippery, like snot······· It's disgusting!"
"You should be able to touch a ring-mounted object and pull it. ”
"Is it a trap?"
"Nine times out of ten. ”
"Woo, I, I'm afraid! senior!" said Axia with a crying face.
"Don't you want to trade with me? don't be afraid, you will be fine if you have the love and mercy of the heavenly vein, at most you will be recovering after being killed. Jue seemed to be joking.
"Uh-huh!-hah!" accompanied by a cry from Axia, which seemed to be a battle against the water. The chain in the hole was pulled apart.
In front of the two of them was a wall that slowly rose, and a wide hall appeared in front of them.
"Senpai?" Alasia whispered.
"Let's go. Jue's tone was like the voice of a person who had given up on life.
As the two walked into the hall, the previously raised wall slowly fell.
"I'm a little stuck. Axia said, looking down the hall.
"Decryption?" Jue said, looking at the wall in front of him.
"There's a stone tablet here. ”
"I'll see. Jue approached the stele.
"An impudent person who slanders Shura, one of the gods.
When to die.
The God-King is merciful and gives opportunity.
Those who pass survive, and those who fail die.
Use your inner knowledge of Shura to prove whether you can survive or not!"
"What is this?" Jue said, raising an eyebrow.
"Is it for us to pass some level?"
Jue listened and looked at the wall.
It is a peculiar wall: a huge wall with four circular holes, and the sunlight reflected in the stained glass above shines on the stone wall. At the four corners of the stone wall are four stone slabs with different animal logos. The stone wall itself is also divided into four different color blocks: upper, lower, left, and right.
In the center of the hall is something that resembles the rudder of a ship. In the center of the hall, there are also four crystal stones of different colors suspended.
"What is this?!·······! There are birds, dragons, tigers······ What's that?. I don't know!," Alasia said in a panic.
"This ······" Jue was speechless for a while.
"Ah!!! are you going to be trapped here for the rest of your life?
"That's too obvious, isn't it?" Jue gave a different attitude from Axia.
"——? senior, aren't your brains broken?"
The corners of Jue's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "Don't you know these four logos?"
Axia's eyes were teary and he nodded.
"Have you heard of the four main gods?"
Looking at Axia, who nodded, Jue asked again, "Then do you know the Undefeated Protoss?"
Aksia shook her head.
"The four main gods are the ones who fought alongside the God King before, and they are also the four powerful gods who assist the current God King. Of course, one of the ruined Protoss······" Juebian said, and walked to the turntable in the center of the hall.
"Once upon a time, these four main gods were all royal. But only once. Jue turned the turntable.
"After helping the current god king, who obtained the title of god king by killing his own brother, to consolidate his power, the four main gods obtained the right to supervise the four places, and also have the right to represent the divine beasts of the four directions. Jue slowly turned the turntable. The crystal above begins to move. At the same time, Jue began to inject mana into the turntable, and it was the logo on the stone wall that began to move.
"The White Tiger of the West Wind, one of the main gods, is the celestial wolf: the emblem of Incarus, who rules war, plunder, armies, and the sky. But as Jue explained, the white crystals above began to move. The stone slab depicting the tiger also moved to the left side of the stone wall, and the light responded to it.
"TEPCO Qinglong is the representative emblem of one of the main gods, the reshaping of the elder: the corpse of the corpse. Ruling disaster, mourning, loneliness. Then, the cyan glow merged with the stone slab depicting the dragon at the right end of the stone wall.
"Nanyang Suzaku is one of the main gods of the Emperor of Light and Shadow: the representative logo of the candle yin. Rule the light, the darkness, the hope, the despair. As if attractive, the orange-yellow glow and the stone slab carved with Suzaku turned precisely below the stone wall.
"The Northern Underworld Xuanwu is the emblem of one of the main gods, the Frost Whisperer: Burning Cold. Ruling the cold, the silence, the cold. Speaking of which, the purple-black light blended with the deep black stone wall above the stone wall, and the stone slab depicting the basalt also matched it.
After the four stone slabs and their corresponding light fused, the stone wall in front of Jue slowly opened.
"See, the so-called 'what you know about Shura in your heart' refers to the background knowledge of the gods who fought side by side with Shura in the past. "Jue looks like Axia.
"That's amazing! The seniors know so much!"
The stone wall opened, and a horizontal sword slowly stretched out from the corridor behind the stone wall. The support under the sword is a tray hanging from a wooden strip. Underneath the center of the strip is a point of light, and at the other end of the strip hangs a balance containing many gold coins. The whole makes up something like a scale.
"O impudent one! this is the reward of the God King! May you remember the spirit of Shura. Get the rewards you have like Shura!" came the same voice in the center of the hall as Jue before they fell.
"Wow, senior, you've made it! Hurry up, get your stuff and get out of this place!" Axia was excited.
"Don't move!" Jue froze at Aksia, who was reaching for the scales.
"Why?"
"As far as I know, one of the members of the God-King left the God-King after the God-King's efforts to save him. ”
"A dependent? But the God King only has one dependent, Shura. ”
"That is, the god-king means ······"
"Those who pass the trial can't take anything from this scale?" Alasia reacted.
"I'm afraid so. The lustless Shura did not accept the desire to become a god-king, but left silently. 'Get the reward you have like Shura!' should mean leaving empty-handed. ”
"That'······ Let's go. Acxia looked at the scales with some reluctance, but walked towards the back of the stone wall.
"Don't worry. Jue grabbed Axia's shoulder.
"Huh?"
Jue smiled and took out a few stones from his pocket.
"Was it the gravel that just fell at this time?"
Jue nodded and said, "It stands to reason that this kind of automatic trap should be to recover the original broken parts when the trap is restored, but this trap does not recover the original stone, that is, this stone should be useful." ”
Axia watched Jue walk to the scales.
"This gold coin can't be taken easily, but the sword can. With that, Jue slowly placed the stone on the tray of the sword, and pressed it with his other hand on the tray containing the gold coins.
"Okay, okay······· Take it out!" Jue said, holding his sword high. The moment the sword left the tray, the scales shook, but eventually balanced.
"Wow! Senior! That's amazing!"
"Well, I'll guess! With the character of the God King, it should be like this!" Jue was very angry.
The two walked down the corridor behind the stone wall.
"Hmm······ It's a good time to delay. Jue said.
"Are you in a hurry?"
"Well, somewhat. I'm going to join the Hundred Soldiers. ”
"Hundred Soldiers?!"
"Hmm. You know that?"
"I've heard that it was initiated by the royal interspecies organization, and it was a martial arts competition for the whole three realms. One is for ethnic exchanges, and the other is for friendship. ”
In fact, there is also a purpose to check the combat effectiveness of other races······ Jue thought.
"I know a lot. ”
"Huh. That's right, senior. If you're in a hurry, you should really hurry. ”
"Huh?"
"Because it's going to be soon. Hundred soldiers. ”
"What?" Jue and Aksia stood at the exit of the trap. The setting sun did not make Jue feel beautiful, on the contrary, Jue felt a sense of urgency as if holding urine.
