0087 Cave of the Dead
"Oh yes!"
"I really got this parchment right!"
I didn't expect the parchment prophecy to be true and valid.
But Zhou Zheng did not choose to escape in the first place.
Because he noticed a problem.
The trunk of the tree was densely packed with mantis coming from all directions.
They climb slowly down from the trunk.
It's not much like a snail.
It's nowhere near the speed of movement comparable to teleportation on flat ground.
"That's interesting."
Zhou Zheng hugged Meow Meow.
Sledgehammer and Luoyang shovel protection.
When the first mantis Gu was about to climb to the flat tree trunk.
Zhou Zheng chose to escape.
He hadn't even forgotten to take away the half of the Gu body that hadn't had time to go, maybe it would help him to study the body structure of this thing in the future.
Ran down two more floors.
Each layer of tree trunks has a climbing Gu on the wall.
You can't stop for a break.
Wait until Zhou Zheng runs to the twentieth floor.
Finally reach the central location given by the parchment map.
There's only one tree hole right now.
Walking through this tree hole, you will enter a whole new world.
But Zhou Zheng didn't run into it non-stop.
Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to unfold the parchment again: "My name is Zhou Zheng, and when you see this sentence, I have already arrived at the designated location." But there seems to be something even more terrifying in this designated location, there are all mantis around me, and I have no choice but to enter it. ”
"In the end, I died here!"
"Your uncle!"
"There is no good ending except death!?"
Zhou Zheng used his sword qi to cut off a Gu that was coming towards him.
Then he instructed Heibei: "Old Hei, do you smell any special smell?"
"Dog, I smell a hint of human odor."
"Human?"
"Yes, it's the smell of people, not the smell of rotting corpses."
Heibei said very seriously: "There are definitely people in this tree hole, but it is a little farther away, and there can be about three or four people."
"And there's a special smell in the middle of this human smell."
"I can't recognize the dog."
Heibei said.
After listening to this, Zhou Zheng said: "There are probably many interlopers, who are following this road to a deeper place...... And from this, I can deduce that there should be more than one copy of this parchment. ”
"Maybe."
"This parchment is one of the hidden rules of the maze."
"Between hypocrisy and truthfulness, find the truth."
"Boss Zhou, this hole, shall we go in?"
"Of course you have to enter, if you don't enter, you will die."
Zhou Zheng used his sword intent to cut off the two Gu again.
Don't dare to stay longer for a moment, and run into the hole.
Trot all the way out of a narrow passage at least 300 meters long.
After the passage, there is no cave.
Zhou Zheng saw a huge clearing with gossip patterns in all directions.
And in the middle of the clearing are all kinds of stone people similar to terracotta warriors.
Or with a knife.
Or with a gun.
Or a halberd in hand.
Or hold the military flag high.
Horseback archery, all five are available.
But there are also people with stone men who are missing arms and legs.
I think it has been here for countless times.
Zhou Zheng was standing on a slow platform at this moment.
If you want to go down, you need to take the stairs.
And it's a very special environment.
It is full of a special sense of suffocation of the age.
Jin Ge Iron Horse and Dead Air compete with each other.
Obviously, there is no lighting equipment, but the ambient brightness is like when it has just been darkened every day, at least Zhou Zheng can see the road ahead.
"The map marks this as the Cave of the Dead."
"Is it possible to use these terracotta-like stone men as guards to harvest here? If it is really a serious stone man, it can't be called a cave of the dead. ”
"Look at this stance."
"If it is really a tomb, the people buried here must at least be at the same level as Qin Shi Huang...... Or is it the monarch of some parallel world?! ”
Zhou Zheng had a new guess.
After all, there is no cicada chirping behind them now.
You can continue to observe: "1,990 stone men...... Among them are the heads of two stone men, which are human heads. ”
"In other words, two interlopers or maze NPCs have died here...... If there is a script for this level, it must be a group of people who pass through here and then run into a mechanism that brings these stone figures back to life. ”
"Attack it in groups."
"And these stone men are self-aware."
"I will find a way to make up for the residual value of the broken arm."
"So he who has no head presses his head, and he who doesn't have an arm presses his arm."
"But if I pass through here."
"It should be a lot easier."
Zhou Zheng was full of confidence: "Lao Hei, get on my back, I'll carry you!"
"I can't help it! Boss Zhou! ”
"Don't, it's really pulling in a while, and something will happen!"
Heibei saw that Zhou Zheng's orders were unquestionable.
simply jumped to Zhou Zheng's back.
The claws firmly wrapped around Zhou Zheng's neck.
Zhou Zheng hugged Meow Meow in his arms.
Take a few steps back.
A sprint, jumping out of the slow platform.
The Cloak of Justice effect was successfully applied.
Zhou Zheng floated in the air.
When you are about to hit the ground or touch the stone man's head.
Edgehammer and Luoyang shovel controlled by Edgeworthy.
appeared at Zhou Zheng's feet and took a step forward.
One more jump, endurance gliding and floating capabilities.
"Boss Zhou, are you going to fly!?"
"Almost, wait for your brother and I to break through the maze two more levels, and learn the flight of the sword, and then I will take you and Meow Meow to fly."
"Yes, yes! I'm looking forward to it! ”
"The premise is that Brother Meow, you have to lose weight! You're so fat now!"
"ʘʚʘ meow?"
Zhou Zheng relied on swordsmanship and a cloak of justice.
Although it can't reach the height of Edgeworth's flight.
It is still possible to walk or stay in the air with the help of force.
So I didn't hit the ground or the stone at all.
Take a leisurely stroll and leap to the end of the clearing.
Far enough away from the stone before Zhou Zheng dared to land.
"It's a simple thing for me."
"But for those who don't have special skills, it's a certain death...... Wrong! ”
Zhou Zheng felt a chill behind him.
He jerked back.
See the stones.
The body didn't move.
But he turned it around.
The carved eyes obviously have no verve.
still made Zhou Zheng shudder.
"Run!"
Zhou Zheng only has this one thought in his mind now.
He didn't have time to open the parchment and check the prophecy changes.
Carry a black shell on your back and a meow in your arms.
Run straight to the hole ahead.
"Bang!"
Zhou Zheng's speed is too fast.
hit the wall, only to barely brake the car.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
The ambient air quality is ridiculously poor.
It's as if each breath does as much damage to the lungs as a hundred secondhand smokes. Muddy and choking, Zhou Zheng coughed twice, ran the turtle breath gong, and tried not to breathe as much as possible.
After making sure that there is no danger around.
Unfold the parchment: "My name is Zhou Zheng, and when you read this sentence, I have already dodged the attack of the terracotta warriors, and from the battle flags they are dressed and held, as well as the war horses under their crotches. I can tell that this is a soldier of the Qin Dynasty, which means that this tomb has existed for a long time. ”
"Murky air can kill me."
"I put my hope in the parchment."
"But this parchment keeps me going."
"Because, those terracotta warriors don't move until they touch the mechanism. Rather, whenever a living person comes in, they take the living person's limbs to make up for the physical defects...... I tried my best, but I still died here! ”
"I'm Nima!"
"In the end, Lao Tzu is still dead!"
Zhou Zheng was shocked after reading the handwriting.
He looked back and saw a terracotta warrior with a missing head chasing after him.
