What's more dangerous than the blade maze is the combination of the knife array + the pit!
In front of them, there was no longer a flat stone road, but a pit full of sharp blades. Once you fall into a pit at least ten meters deep, you will definitely die with the current attributes of the new life. Although the length of a single pit is only five meters, it is not difficult for them to jump over the physical attributes. But what if three pits appeared side by side in a row?
In front of the Radiant freshmen, this is the situation: three pits side by side, with countless sharp blades stuck upside down!
Between the pit and the pit, there is only a foothold less than half a meter wide. If you don't pay attention when jumping, you may lose your balance under the action of inertia and fall headlong into the pit in front of you. What's even worse is that there is also a bright blade flywheel above the pit.
A pair of large white scoring wheels fly back and forth between the three craters in a fixed trajectory. Above each pit, at a slightly lower height, there is a small grey scoring wheel. The very different trajectories and speeds make this section of the pit a deadly road to death. However, in order to return to the surface, they had no choice but to continue to rush forward.
Before entering the academy, Hu Siming often encountered this kind of mechanism in the adventure single-player game. The characters in the game will not be afraid, and they can be saved infinitely, so it is naturally easy and enjoyable to clear the level. But now, when it was time for him to face it himself, Hu Siming didn't feel any excitement.
Such difficulty is a bit too exciting for him, who was an ordinary person just a month ago!
"Who's coming first?"
Looking at the countless blades under the pit, Zhao Feng was so nervous that his palms were covered with beads of sweat. He asked the others with some humility, apparently not having the first idea of finding the way.
"I'll do it first. โ
Seeing that the morale of the team was frustrated, Hu Siming stood up and took the initiative to take on this important responsibility.
Because of the inertia, height, and foothold, the three-stage pit must be jumped in one row to succeed. If you want to come one by one, you can only be trapped in the middle. Hu Siming raised his head and stared at the trajectory of each knife wheel for a full minute, and then he roughly calculated the distance and track in his heart.
"Are you sure?"
Seeing that Hu Siming began to make final preparations, Yan Shaoou next to him asked nervously. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "If you really can't do it, just launch a heroic charge." Isn't that movement skill of yours ignorant of terrain, and it shouldn't be a problem to rush through the pits. โ
"Of course it's just me, it's just ......"
Hu Siming hesitated for two seconds, but still did not adopt Yan Shaoou's idea.
If he uses skills directly, then it will become meaningless for him to take the initiative to stand up and demonstrate, and it will not have the effect of probing at all. Moreover, the speed of the freshman's return to the blue is too slow, and a heroic charge will consume 50 points, and Hu Siming is a little reluctant.
Although he was only fifty percent sure in his heart, he saw the opportunity for the white knife wheel and the gray knife wheel to fly side by side to the end, he still resolutely ran three steps and jumped out with all his might!
The first five-meter-wide pit jumped over, and Hu Siming accurately grasped the distance. When his feet stepped on the foothold between the pits, he made a sharp effort and jumped up again with the help of inertia. Because of the excellent timing, after rolling sideways in the air, the gray knife wheel above the second pit was also dodged. After jumping over the five-meter pit again, Hu Siming only needs to skip the last section to pass the customs safely.
But it was this last jump that encountered a little danger!
The white blade flywheel at the top has a fixed trajectory, which is precisely avoided by Hu Siming. However, the gray knife wheel on the last pit is fast and slow. When Hu Siming jumped to the highest point, it was obviously a meter away behind Hu Siming, but it suddenly sped up and slashed into Hu Siming's shoulder.
Has anyone ever tasted what it's like to have a chainsaw cut through a shoulder blade?
The creaking sound is estimated to be very "wonderful" and unforgettable!
Hu Siming had only seen it in horror movies before, but today, he experienced it for himself. The feeling of pain in the bone marrow made him can't help but scream. If it weren't for the attributed body, he simply suspected that half of his shoulder would disappear directly, and then die on the spot.
Luckily, the gray knife wheel doesn't hurt as much. Although it looked very miserable, his HP had only dropped by less than sixty points. The 10% chance of cutting did not trigger a one-hit kill.
"Bang!"
With the dull sound of his body hitting the ground, Hu Siming successfully completed the landing and fell at the end of the pit. Having finally managed to break through the blade maze, he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and cheer.
Not long ago, he was greatly strengthened by getting the Frost Ball, and he was forced to come to some seemingly correct conclusions. For example, the purpose of the academy is to make them stronger or something. But after experiencing a dangerous labyrinth of blades, Hu Siming decided to retract his previous words. Because, the risk of the UEC is indeed a bit high......
After treating himself and catching his breath for a while, he sat up from the ground and beckoned to the man on the other side of the pit.
Although there was a little accident at the last moment, Hu Siming's successful passage still gave Zhao Feng their strong confidence. After patiently observing for a while, Zhao Feng and Yan Shaoou learned the lesson of Hu Siming, and the three consecutive jumps of the limit also broke through one after another!
Among the five, only the fat men Zhang Hao and Liu Feng remained.
"So, when the physical examination repairs the physical defects, does the hair count obesity as well?"
Zhang Hao stood on the edge of the pit and hesitated, complained loudly about the academy, and finally made up his mind. The first run-up and the first two jumps all looked perfect. Just when the three people who had already passed the level were secretly cheering Zhang Hao, the trajectory of the gray knife wheel changed randomly again. Zhang Hao, who was hit from the side by the knife wheel, screamed, lost his balance, and fell into the dark pit one meter from the safety position.
"Poof!"
The sound of countless sharp blades penetrating ** sounded, and more than a dozen blood flowers spurted out.
The super high damage instantly made Zhang Hao's health return to zero. His body turned into countless points of light and disappeared. The soul was inscribed by the school emblem and teleported back to the college's resurrection cemetery.
Battlefield Tips: The Radiant team has lost one person!
"How so!"
The sudden change stunned Zhao Feng, who had a good relationship with Zhang Hao. His friend fell into the pit within easy reach, not dying at the hands of the Dire team's repeaters, not being threatened by the mummies, only to be killed by the Maze of Blades Trap in this way!
For a moment, Zhao Feng was a little unable to accept this cruel reality. He leaned on the ground and looked into the pit, as if he wanted to see the culprit who killed Zhang Hao, but unfortunately he only saw a dense and upside-down cold blade.
"Calm down, calm down!"
Hu Siming didn't expect to lose a teammate here, but his two years of professional competition in the real world taught him to deal with all kinds of unexpected and bad situations. Quickly calming down, he pulled Zhao Feng up from the ground and said with relief: "The death penalty for this unified examination has been reduced, and Zhang Hao has been rewarded with a battle evaluation improvement, and at most two or three years of life will be deducted after he goes back." Don't worry, we're a team, we're a team! As long as the team wins, even if he dies, he can still get the reward for winning the UEC!"
After being comforted by Hu Siming like this, Zhao Feng quickly calmed down.
"You're right, but I'm panicking. โ
The companion did not really die, which made Zhao Feng reinvigorated, and his fighting spirit became more and more determined. Be sure to rush back to the ground and win the UEC!
Seeing that Zhao Feng's state was back, Hu Siming finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Feng, who was stimulated by Zhang Hao's death, was already having a shadow on the knife wheel, and now he became more and more afraid. She knelt on the other side of the pit, refusing to jump over.
After half a minute of persuasion to no avail, Hu Siming couldn't afford to waste that time, and finally changed his coercive attitude: "Think about it yourself, do you sit there and wait for death, or take the risk of trying?" I'll only give you ten seconds, if you don't jump, the three of us will leave, and leave you here alone!"
"Don't!"
Hu Siming's toughness has achieved unexpected results. Liu Feng didn't want to be left alone in the dim underground mausoleum, so he had to grit his teeth, stomp his feet, and jump over with his eyes half-closed.
Maybe she was lucky, and the first two jumps were skipped by her. In the last jump, although they were also turned by the gray knife, Hu Siming and Zhao Feng, who had been prepared, stood on the edge of the pit and stretched out their hands, and forcibly dragged her back from the brink of death.
