Chapter 33: The Test of Strength (1)
The final assigned routes are:
The two teams of Hewronisburg, the Academy Alliance and the Universe Team, a total of eleven people took the left passage, and the two teams of Narocollo and Kod Town, a total of thirteen people took the right passage, and the remaining five members of the Flann District could only accept the middle lane choice with a bitter face.
There was no way, the members of the Farrann District wanted to go to the left and right sides and were rejected, and everyone had an attitude that Lin would rather believe it than not to believe it.
"Good luck," Xue Yi waved to the other two passages, "Meet in the hall." ”
I have to say that Xue Ye is worthy of being a proud son of heaven from a famous family, and his every move is graceful and lively, and he has the demeanor of a super league star.
Diablo snorted, and stepped into the right side of the passage with Sogo.
The road parted at his feet, with a bitter face: "I hope it will go well." His eyes looked at Lin, hoping for some hints.
Lin said lightly: "Your team has the greatest hope of passing the test, there are only five people. With that, he walked into the passage of the strength test on the left without looking back.
Lin was already quite disappointed with this group of so-called elites, and he wanted to cooperate sincerely to find the treasures of the ruins and take what they needed, and he also worked hard to decipher the ancient spiritual texts and received valuable hints. However, the psychic was quite skeptical of Lin's words as a psychic apprentice, and even suspected that Lin intended to mislead the news.
In the end, it was only by relying on Xue Yi's prestige that the distribution was basically equal, which was unsatisfactory.
Through this incident, Lin also realized that there is a competition of interests involved in the kingdom of God, and the trust relationship between psychics is actually very fragile, unless they are teammates who are born and die, sincere cooperation is just empty talk.
Yang Zhenzhen felt Lin's depressed mood, tugged on his arm, and joked with Lin in a low voice.
In fact, there is no need for Yang Zhen to really tease, Lin himself is the type of negative emotions that will not last more than ten seconds, and soon, he forced himself to transfer his spirit to this "power channel".
Compared to the main passage before the fork, the power channel is a little narrower, but relatively speaking, the number of psychics is also much smaller, and it is not crowded.
Aubrey walked ahead with a torch, and Xue Ye walked beside Lin at some point.
"Master Kobayashi, can I ask you a question?"
Lin nodded, he still had some good feelings for Xue Ye.
"Who is your teacher? I've heard a little about the famous spirit master, but I haven't heard of any new disciples. ”
Lin couldn't help but smile when he thought of Ouyang Xiu, then he smiled and said flatly: "I'm too bad at mixing now, I don't have the face to mention the teacher's name." It's normal that you haven't heard of it, my teacher has been in seclusion for a long time. ”
Lin secretly added in his heart: But it seems to be out of the mountain again.
I don't know what the teacher went to Western Europe to do, but before leaving, his expression was so solemn, and he chattered like a housekeeper's wife, and gave a lot of instructions unusually, just like confessing his last words.
Xue Ye didn't continue to ask Lin's teacher, and said tentatively: "I don't know, if Master Xiaolin is willing to join the Academy Alliance?"
Lin said lightly: "On this issue, President Aubrey Fleischer has already stated that I am not from the academy, and I only have the strength of a psychic apprentice, so I can't join." ”
Xue Yi smiled a little embarrassedly: "Aubrey has done a bad job in this matter, just because you are a true friend, the position of a guest secretary is still a matter of course." ”
Lin shook his head and said, "There is no need to join the Academy Alliance, if there is any commission I can complete in the future, just contact me." For President Xue, I can offer a friendship price - but, then again, President Xue needs to engrave the life spirit, I'm afraid I don't have the ability to identify it yet. ”
Xue Ye insisted again and again, and when he saw that Lin had made up his mind, he sighed, looked back, and looked back at Branch President Aubrey Fleischer, who was walking at the front of the team with a torch, and sighed secretly.
After being rejected, Xue Ye did not leave, but chatted with Yang Zhenzhen.
"Zhenzhen, why don't you join me?" Xue Yi said, "I only know now that you also participated in this event! The salt mud swamp is so dangerous, and there is a dragon crocodile attack, why don't you let the guards accompany you?"
Yang Zhenzhen pursed his lips and said, "If my family knows that I went to the salt mud swamp, they have to ground me." ”
"I'm not from your family. Xue Ye argued.
Yang Zhenzhen snorted and said, "What's the difference between you and them, if you see me, you will definitely say with a straight face, 'It's too dangerous here, hurry back to the temple' or something." I can't beat you, and the adventure will be in vain. ”
Xue Ye was helpless, so he had to say: "I've arrived here, you don't have to worry about me driving you away." You and Master Kobayashi, let's go with me, and I'll do my best to protect you. ”
Yang Zhenzhen turned his little face sideways and glanced at Lin.
Seeing the resistance on Lin's expression, Yang Zhenzhen smiled slightly: "No need, I think the universe team is quite strong, with tacit cooperation, and it saved my life." ”
Xue Yi nodded and instructed: "If there is any danger, hurry up and move closer to me." After he left these words, he walked a few quick steps to the front of the line, among the groups of the Academy Alliance.
Yang Zhenzhen chuckled quietly: "Aubrey is going to be unlucky." ”
Lin asked, "How so?"
Yang Zhenzhen analyzed: "Aubrey knew that I was participating in this event, but he arranged for me to follow him in the activity, knowing that my Yang family and the Xue family were world friends, but he did not inform Brother Xue. ”
Lin still doesn't know why.
Yang Zhenzhen paused, and continued to analyze gloatingly: "Aubrey is doing this, obviously wanting to soak me and save the United States heroically at a critical time...... I was worried that Brother Xue would get in the way, so I didn't notify him. Unexpectedly, I was attacked by a large group of swamp dragon crocodiles, and he took care of himself, leaving me in a dangerous situation. Even if Brother Xue doesn't pursue his concealment of information, he must be held accountable for leaving me and running away. ”
Yang Zhenzhen's words showed hatred, and Aubrey Fleischer swore that he would protect Yang Zhenzhen, but when the disaster came, he fled alone, and Yang Zhenzhen almost lost his life in the kiss of the dragon crocodile.
Lin Wuyan patted Yang Zhenzhen's fragrant shoulder to show comfort.
Yang Zhenzhen shook his big hand and felt extremely safe: "It's okay, you are here to save me." ”
While talking, the group has walked a distance of hundreds of meters.
"There's a hall up ahead!" shouted one of the Academy Alliances.
Xue Ye turned his head and said with some doubts: "Master Xiaolin, is the destination of our trip ahead?" He wondered why there was no test of strength.
Lin took two quick steps forward and took a closer look at the entrance to the hall.
Above the entrance to the hall, a line of large spiritual characters is carved.
These are universal spiritual texts, which are different from the strange of ancient spiritual texts, and can be recognized by learned people without the ability to think.
Lin slowly recognized, and said to himself: "The palace ...... No, it should mean the hall...... Behind it is ...... Strong? is also not right, it can be translated as strength. ”
After a pause, Lin said loudly: "I understand, read from right to left, this is the Hall of Power, which is the place of our trial!"
Xue Ye was in good spirits, and with a goal, there was no need to look aimlessly. He said in a deep voice: "Everyone line up in battle formation, summon the main battle spirit, enter carefully!"
In the passage, everyone took back their life spirits and regained their psionic energy. Now that the battle is about to begin, everyone has summoned the life spirits in advance.
Lin followed the team into the hall and looked around curiously. He found that the hall also had a back door, but it was blocked by a heavy bronze door, making it impossible to pass through.
In the center of the hall stands a three-meter-tall statue of a giant. In front of the statue, there is an altar with a diameter of five meters, and dozens of small circles are evenly distributed around the altar, and each small circle is engraved with mysterious patterns.
"Here's an explanation," the genius found a small bronze plate in front of the statue: "It's Lingwen, Brother Lin is here." ”
Everyone gathered in front of the bronze plate, waiting for Lin's interpretation.
"Fortunately, this is not an ancient spiritual text, but a universal spiritual text. Otherwise I'm really not necessarily sure. Lin carefully observed the bronze plate, stumbling to interpret the meaning of it.
"Everyone...... Stand in a circle around the statue...... The sacred fire of the altar burns brightly, and the resurrected Tyras ...... Knocked down, the portal to the origin opens. ”
"What do these words mean?" was still confused, even after the translation.
"Tyras, the monster we are trying to defeat in our trials. The genius said with certainty.
Lin nodded and said, "Do you see the small circles on the ground around the altar? I guess everyone has to stand in different small circles to light the holy fire on the altar to activate a monster named 'Tyras'." Once we've defeated this monster, we're ready to move on. ”
Xue Yi nodded and said, "Okay, let's get moving!" He was the first to walk into a small circle.
The mystical motif of the small circle lit up, and a thin bright line that meandered like a snake soon extended to the base of the altar.
Lin, Yang Zhenzhen, and the members of the Universe Squad stepped into the circle one after another, and six thin lines extended to the bottom of the altar.
Wu Haitao was the last person, and suddenly said: "No, the more people standing in the circle, the more thin lines will be extended...... This means that the more energy the altar gets! Most likely, the more powerful the summoned monsters will be!
The members of the Academy Alliance, who walked into the circle one after another, some tried to get out of the circle, but found that a circular wall of energy had arisen from the edge of the circle, and it was impossible to get out.
Wu Haitao laughed and said: "See, you have all been deceived! As long as one person walks into the circle and lights the holy fire, the energy activated by one person is very low, and the monster summoned must be weakened!" He was very proud, and no one saw the shortcut, so he found it alone.
Lin shouted, "Are you an idiot? The flame is about to be lit, choose a circle to enter!"
Xue Ye said at the same time: "Haitao, hurry up, don't try to deceive the altar!"
With a "puff" sound, a raging white flame ignited on the altar.
