Chapter 63: The Palace
After making up his mind, Chen Meng turned over and jumped out of the guest room, his feet on the ground in the capital.
[The host has been detected to be within range of an unknown replica.] γ
[The simulated dungeon system can help the host simulate the strategy of other dungeons once.] γ
[The current host has 1 simulation point, do you want to simulate the strategy?] γ
It was afternoon, and the streets were crowded with players.
Chen Meng walked around the street, found a lonely alley to hide, and began the simulation.
[You entered the dungeon and found a fork in the road ahead, what is your choice?] γ
[1. Go to the left.] γ
[2. Go to the right.] γ
[3. Go forward.] γ
The analog system is the same.
However, after Chen Meng walked around the Humble Fire Temple, he also had some strange views on his simulation.
"At this time, my so-called doppelganger in the future life has already entered the dungeon with the second and third children......
Chen Meng began to imagine that image.
A man who looked exactly like himself was standing inside the copy, looking at this so-called "fairy world", and was in a trance.
"What will my doppelganger think? He probably knew he was a doppelganger......"
There is no answer to this question.
Chen Meng continued to simulate.
You chose to go to the right. After walking for about thirty miles, you found a splendid palace at the end of the road. γ
[The door of the palace is closed, and it costs three silver keys to open it. γ
[You currently have five silver keys, do you want to consume three silver keys to open the door of the palace?] γ
It's also strange to say.
Go to the left to reach the broken temple, only 100 steps.
Now go to the right, and actually walk more than 30 miles to reach the front of the palace.
Chen Meng didn't think much about it anymore and opened the door of the palace.
[You consumed three silver keys and opened the door of the palace. γ
γYour current number of Silver Keys is: 2γ
[The palace is empty, you search around the palace......]
[You searched the first floor of the palace and found nothing. γ
[Do you want to enter the second floor of the palace to explore?] γ
"What's that? There are two more floors in the palace? β
In Chen Meng's previous imagination, this so-called "splendid palace" should be similar to the structure of the Sanqing Hall of Yuanhua Palace, with several huge pillars supporting the beams, and several statues of gods and goddesses inside. There is only one floor, and you can see the roof when you look up.
After all, there are no descriptive passages in this simulation system.
This classic ancient Chinese palace is the most deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is understandable for Chen Meng to make such an assumption.
Now it seems that the structure of this palace may not be quite what he imagined.
Chen Meng chose to enter the second floor to explore.
[You consumed a silver key and opened the door to the second floor of the palace. γ
Your current number of Silver Keys is: 1
[You entered the second floor of the palace and met the boss guarding this place. γ
[You fought the boss.] γ
[At the end of the battle, you have 10% of your HP remaining.] γ
[You search for ...... on the second floor of the palace]
Another thrilling battle took place.
"Fortunately, the potential points were used up before the simulation, otherwise this victory or defeat is unknown."
Chen Meng breathed a long sigh of relief.
The battles in this unknown dungeon have always been so difficult, and it's always good to be prepared.
[You found a cell where NPCs are being held.] γ
[Do you want to consume a silver key to open the cell and rescue NPCs?] γ
Finally, there is something different in the plot.
Chen Meng was a little happy and a little sad.
"If memory serves, this is my last key."
Once this key is used, Chen Meng's exploration this time is over.
According to the urine nature of this copy, maybe there is a third floor in this palace.
Do you want to save this NPC?
Chen Meng struggled for a while, but still chose to save people.
"Anyway, now my blood is not enough, I went to the third floor, if there is a boss, maybe I will hang up directly."
Let's take it one step at a time.
[You consumed the Silver Key and rescued the NPC.] γ
[Your current number of Silver Keys is: 0]
[Do you want to enter the third floor of the palace to explore?] γ
[You don't have enough keys to enter the third floor of the palace.] γ
[You retreat back to the entrance of the dungeon with the NPC.] γ
γPlease select the direction you are going again.γ γ
[1. Go to the left.] γ
[2. Go to the right.] γ
[3. Go forward.] γ
"Sure enough......"
Chen Meng held his forehead and sighed unlucky.
It stands to reason that after he rescues the imprisoned NPC, there should be some dialogue.
But this simulation system is like gold, and it refuses to show it at all.
Now that the key is gone, the analog system can't go anywhere.
"I'm sorry."
Chen Meng apologized to the "doppelganger", and chose to move forward with resentment, skillfully sending him to death and exiting the simulation.
You have chosen to move forward. After a few steps, the hidden boss jumped out. γ
[At the end of the battle, you have been defeated, and the opponent still has 99% of the blood left.] This strategy failed. γ
γPlease select the reward for this simulation:γ
[1. The dungeon rewards 7% of the potential points, for a total of 84,000 potential points.] γ
[2. Abandon all rewards and speed up the recovery of simulation points, it is estimated that 1 simulation point will be restored after 12 hours]
The exploration progress of this dungeon is not as good as last time.
The last time he learned the Humble Fire Determination in the Humble Fire Temple, and then killed himself by random luck, the final quest exploration progress was 10%.
This time, it's only seven percent.
Chen Meng didn't think it was strange.
After all, he hadn't even entered the Humble Fire Temple this time, and had only explored the second floor in that palace.
"Speaking of which, now that I'm so familiar with the abbot of the Humble Fire Temple, after entering the Humble Fire Temple, the exploration progress should increase a lot."
However, Chen Meng did not regret the choice of this simulation.
After consuming all the keys in that palace, he got a lot of information.
For example, that palace has at least three floors.
For example, there is an unknown NPC imprisoned on the second floor of the palace, and it seems that the NPC can be brought out.
He looked at the rewards of this simulation, and decisively chose to give up the potential points and speed up the recovery of the simulation.
Of course, he didn't look down on these more than 80,000 potential points.
Instead, he suddenly had a plan in his head.
A plan to uncover the truth about the underground dungeon.
"What happens when I rescue that NPC in the dungeon and take him to the Humble Fire Temple?"
Chen Meng stroked his chin and thought with interest.
The space in which the Humble Fire Temple is located is very peculiar, connecting both the dungeon and the present world.
As long as that NPC can be left in the Humble Fire Temple, the living Chen Meng can talk to him.
The NPCs who are imprisoned in the dungeon must know a lot of information.
Maybe he can solve the mystery of the underground dungeon with him in one fell swoop.
"It's just that this plan requires a bit more keys."
Chen Meng began to sort out the process of this plan.
Three keys are required to enter the palace.
Enter the second floor with a key and rescue the prisoner with a key.
There are five keys in total.
Then go to the ruined temple, and two keys are needed to open the two secret doors of the ruined temple.
In the dungeon, two keys are required to open the gate of the Humble Fire Temple.
That's a total of nine keys.
"Four keys are missing."
Chen Meng nodded and looked in the direction of the Drunken Immortal Tower.
