Chapter 44: Temporary Departure
Stepping into the reward, Mr. Gaston shook his head slightly, he could understand what Abner and the others had done, but he didn't approve of it. But he didn't say anything more, first, he wasn't their teacher, so he didn't have to worry about it. Second, no matter how determined the other party was, he still managed to bring him through the seventh layer very smoothly. After this level, you will be able to obtain some permissions from the Dream Labyrinth Tower. He is now paying all his attention to this, and he has no intention of educating the younger generation.
On the other side, as soon as Abner entered the reward, a lot of information sounded directly in his ears like a whisper. Fortunately, there was no malice in this information, and there was no knowledge and pollution of high qualities, otherwise he would have immediately opened the pure white eye to analyze a wave of dream maze and forced himself unconscious.
"It turns out that after passing the seventh floor, you will have a small number of privileges in this tower...... No wonder Mr. Gaston was willing to pay £1,000 to get him through. Abner didn't really come to his senses until this point.
"There are roughly three privileges. First, if you enter the Dream Labyrinth Tower in the future, you will first come to the rewards and continue to break through directly from the 6th floor. Of course, if you want to go to the seventh, eighth, and ninth floors, you can also go to the three layers, but the rewards after clearing the customs will be replaced by a certain number of points, and then the points will be used to apply for the corresponding directional knowledge or intelligence. And if you repeatedly brush the first three layers in a short period of time, the points given will be less and less...... Integral? Hey! Russell: Is this really building a large-scale dungeon online game?! ”
"Second, you can spend points to open a dream maze in the first three layers. Orientation here refers to the type of maze scene. You know, those scenes themselves also contain a lot of knowledge and secrets, if you don't just explore them in order to clear the level, you may have a lot of gains. For example, if you orient a Quaternary scene, you can infer a lot of historical secrets through the characters and backgrounds inside. I reckon that Mr. Gaston is so desperate to clear the seventh floor, perhaps precisely for this privilege. ”
"The third privilege is to have your own lounge in the tower, where you can store some things that you brought with you in reality. In my opinion, this function is more chicken, unless you soak here for a long time and repeatedly liver points, why live here? And the dream realm and the door of truth in the underground outside can't be moved, and it can't be used as a carry-on storage room......"
While his head was thinking about the above, Abner had already sat down in the seat in front of the bookcase and received his third playthrough reward. A reward that caught his eye!
It was a copy of the details of a bearer account with Beckland Bank. There was a deposit of £500 in the account, which belonged to a gentleman whose family had recently been shipwrecked at sea.
"Oh, does this tower think that the knowledge I most desperately want is money? Russell is cheesy! After feeling a little contempt for the emperor in his heart, Abner carefully wrote down the account number and withdrawal ciphertext of this bearer account. Well, the more the merrier. What's more, if this money is not withdrawn, wouldn't it be cheaper for the bank?
Hugh also finished reading his reward at this time, and when she saw Abner looking over, she said with some joy and some confusion: "Rewarded the 'Sheriff' with the complete potion recipe...... Originally, I was quite happy, but after thinking about it, wouldn't the name of the main material of the previous layer of rewards seem useless? I always feel like I'm losing......"
"In addition to the name of the main material, you also know the life of Erlan in the first half of his life, maybe he will be able to use it in the future." Although Abner was so comforting on his lips, he agreed with Hugh's idea in his heart, but he planned to tell the other party what the other main material was after he went out.
Hugh felt that he seemed to be a little greedy at this time, so he quickly straightened his attitude and asked Abner about his gains, and when he learned that he had taken the money, he was speechless, and deeply felt that the divine density of this dream labyrinth had dropped several levels in an instant.
Mr. Gaston saw that the two of them had finished exchanging, and his expression was no longer as serious as when they first met, but he said with a smile: "After the seventh floor, our contract will be over, and I will transfer 1,000 pounds to Isenger later." ”
Abner nodded, the money had nothing to do with him, after all, the teacher had already paid him.
It was only after a moment of divergent thinking that he seemed to think of something, and asked, "Mr. Gaston, can we come here again through the 'door' under the school?" "Although that 'door' is not strictly the other party's private property, it took so many years to find it.
"Of course, you are welcome to come at any time, I actually want to know what will happen to the next level, but from the manuscript I have gotten, it is too dangerous there!" At this point, Mr. Gaston looked at Abner and said meaningfully. "I always thought you'd try to keep going, but now it looks like you've changed your mind."
Abner really wanted to rely on the 'plot' of the scene to try to break through to the sixth floor. But an extremely eye-catching warning sign standing in front of the passage leading to that floor made him temporarily press his mind. Because it says:
"1. Once you enter the scene on the sixth floor, you can't leave unless you succeed or die.
"2. The boundary between dream and reality in the sixth layer of the scene has been blurred, and if you die in the scene, you will die in reality.
"3. The sixth layer will ban the extraordinary abilities and corresponding magical items of the sequence and above in the interloper, and retain the abilities of the sequence 7 and below.
"4. The speed of time in the sixth layer of the scene is the same as that of reality, if you stay in the dream maze for too long, the lifespan will decrease with the passage of real time."
The handwriting on this warning sign is old, and the font is not very good-looking, obviously not existing in this tower, but deliberately left by the previous interlocutors for future generations.
Although I don't know if this is a lie, Abner doesn't want to gamble on the truth with his own life, after all, he has pure white eyes to cheat, and the Dream Labyrinth Tower can't really ban his ability, so it's better to wait until he is promoted to the middle sequence.
Hugh meant the same thing, after all, she was only in sequence 9, how could she dare to enter the unknown and dangerous place unprepared? She likes to be reckless, but she won't be so brainless and reckless.
"In that case, then I'll send you back to reality, you may not know where the exit is. Hehe, I'd like to study here a little longer. Seeing that Abner and Ibner had no intention of continuing the tower, Mr. Gaston first went around the many bookshelves and made a few dots towards one of the walls, and then a door of light appeared abruptly.
Abner hurriedly followed, and asked casually, "Mr. Gaston, when is the next extraordinary gathering you organized at the 'Sword and Fire' bar?" "The reward he received on the ninth floor revealed that the clue to another of the 'Keepers' main material might be in the bar, and he didn't want to miss it.
"Looks like you're going to have to stay with me for a few more days this Thursday night." Mr. Gaston didn't ask him exactly what he was going to get at the party, but instead introduced the size of his party and the attendees, "This party has been semi-public for a long time, and adventurers, sailors, pirates, and even some military personnel from the neighborhood may participate!" ”
"Doesn't the Storm Church care?" Abner asked, confused. The islands of the sea are almost all the territory of the Church of the Storm.
"It's a small town, there's no Punisher squad stationed, and it's overseas, it's a colony! The Church does not have a very strict control over the extraordinary. As long as the doctrine of the evil god is not openly promoted, or any bloody case such as sacrifice is made, under normal circumstances, the Storm Church will not intervene. Mr. Gaston explained.
"Even so, you can organize a semi-public gathering here, I'm afraid your identity is not simple!" Abner seemed to be emotional, as if he was tentative.
"Okay, don't play this trick. You're a student of Issinger, so it doesn't hurt to tell you, I'm a member of the Church of Steam and Mechanics. It's just that the nationality is Intis, so you can't operate in the Kingdom of Rune. Mr. Gaston said after glancing at Abner. Maybe it's better than reasoning, but you're more tender when it comes to scheming.
Steam Church Periphers from Intis? This identity is actually similar to the teacher, no wonder they became friends...... However, after this gentleman found the Dream Labyrinth Tower, he did not report to the church or ask the heart of the machine for help, and it seems that his faith is not very strong.
After a few words, Abner saw that he was about to walk out of the top of the tower, and hurriedly asked again, "Do you know that there is a lady named Gwen at the party?" ”
Mr. Gaston shook his head and said, "Extraordinary gatherings, most of them are hidden, how can they say their names?" There are even fewer with code names! ”
In Abner's frustration, the three of them had already walked out of the top of the tower.
Looking back at the inverted tower, so high that he couldn't even see the bottom, Abner thought to himself, "Next time I come, I'll have to make it past the sixth, fifth, or even fourth floor!" Here are the keys to my future promotion. ”
With his logical analysis ability, since he knows that this tower is a strange thing built by Russell during the period of the 'Emperor of Knowledge', combined with the original novel, it is not difficult to speculate about the emperor's intention to build this tower.
Other purposes are not mentioned......
In the deepest part of this dream labyrinth tower, there is a high probability that there is a 'blasphemy card'!
This is perhaps the biggest reason why the Dream Labyrinth Tower has not been monopolized by other great forces so far!
It's the 'Blasphemy Card' that comes with a stealth effect that shields the senses of high-level extraordinary!
