Chapter 10: Within the Labyrinth
"I announce, now, the maze opens!"
With an order from the leading teacher, the door of the second-level maze slowly opened, and countless rays of light shot out and landed at the feet of the students with scoring bracelets.
Then, a white magic circle rose from their feet, and the magic circle flashed with white light, and the students standing on it were teleported into the labyrinth.
Sou!
After a short time, all the students were sent into the maze.
Exams begin!
In the labyrinth, the Celestial Underworld was transported to a remote edge area, and there was no breath of any creature except for stones of various shapes.
Tian Ming surveyed his surroundings - the walls of the rock were full of regular circular holes, and a faint glint of silvery-white light could be seen; Countless cone stones are either hanging from the top or extending from the cracks at the bottom of the wall, giving people the feeling of a rock cage; The stone road in front of you is uneven, and it is dark where it leads.
Seeing that there was no other way out, Tianying walked towards the only exit-
Click!
Suddenly, he felt a rock he was stepping on sink, and a mechanism sounded!
In the moment of breathing, dense sharp feather arrows flew out from the circular hole in the stone wall, heading straight for the heavenly underworld.
Hundreds of arrows came from all directions, including poisoned arrows, demon-breaking arrows, cursed arrows, and more, each with a life-threatening attack.
In other words, there are only two possibilities for ordinary students to face the rain of arrows - either fail to quit, or die!
But Tianming was an ordinary student, and as soon as he stepped forward, a fierce hurricane rolled up from under his feet, and swept the incoming arrows into it.
Soon after, the hurricane disappeared, and the arrows that had lost their power fell to the ground, leaving the trap unscathed.
At the same time, in other parts of the maze, many students were teleported to the trap area.
But without the strong strength of Tianying, just a face, most people will be eliminated by the trap.
Go to the heavenly underworld -
As soon as he left the trap area, he stepped into a dark, damp cavern.
Darkness enveloped all around, and an eerie scent lingered on the tip of his nose.
Not in a hurry to use magic to illuminate his surroundings, Tianying walked slowly, and after a few steps, he felt something sticky on his shoes.
The extremely sticky nature temporarily left the Celestial Darkness in place.
Before Tian Ming could figure out what was under his feet, two clouds of green light suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of Tian Ming.
His attention was immediately diverted.
Two clouds of green light floated in the air like flames, and the distance between them remained the same.
Soon after, the two green lights began to slowly amplify, and the bright light also became intense...
After moving to a distance of about five meters from the Heavenly Underworld, the green light stopped, and then, a new green light appeared near the green light—
Fourth, sixth, and eighth regiments······
There were more and more green lights, and they always appeared in pairs, and it didn't take long for the sky to be surrounded by hundreds of green lights.
Although the green light is dim, hundreds of people gather together to show the surrounding scenery:
The body and the things under his feet that the Celestial Soul finally saw—
It's giant poisonous spiders and the spider silk they spit out!
In other words, now Tianying is trapped by cobwebs, and there are hundreds of large and small green-eyed poisonous spiders crawling beside him!
It was the first time for Tianying to see this battle, and after seeing the other party's figure clearly, the corresponding information appeared in his mind:
Green-eyed poisonous spider, a first-order magical beast, swarming, can spit out tough silk, and use poison elemental magic.
The poison element, although it seems to have nothing to do with the five attributes, is actually a branch of the wood element.
Each of the five attributes has a number of branch attributes, and almost every branch attribute corresponds to an element that is slightly stronger than the base attribute.
For magicians, the five major branches of elemental magic generally have to reach the level of the sixth order to have the ability to comprehend, such as the hurricane released by the Heavenly Immortal not long ago, which is actually a branch of the sixth-order wood elemental magic - sixth-order wind elemental magic.
But for Warcraft, because of the racial advantage, even a first-order Warcraft may use the branch elemental magic in the basic element.
For example, the green-eyed poisonous spider here, although it is only a first-order magical beast, it uses a first-order poisonous elemental magic - venom!
Hundreds of green-eyed spiders spread their brownish-green fangs and spewed out large amounts of black-green venom from their mouthparts.
They want to use this venom to directly poison the heavenly underworld who is trapped by cobwebs and "has no power to resist"!
But apparently, they chose the wrong "prey":
With a flick of his right hand, a crimson flame burst out, and then, the flame seemed to be given life and transformed into a majestic dragon of flames.
Tianying was not afraid of this venom, but he didn't want to touch it, because it was disgusting to watch.
As a result, the high temperature released by the Flame Dragon instantly evaporated the venom sprayed.
Immediately, the Heavenly Darkness thought about it, and the flame dragon began to sweep through the green-eyed poisonous spider.
The identities of "prey" and "hunter" are reversed, and no spider survives wherever the flame dragon passes.
The dazzling light of the fire illuminated the entire nest of poisonous spiders, and the scene was reflected in the eyes of the heavenly darkness:
The nest is a large ellipsoidal shape, with countless spider cocoons of various sizes on the ceiling and the edges of the walls; Not far away, in the cocoon, is an inconspicuous closed stone door.
After cleaning up the green-eyed spider, Celestial Immortal did not rush to destroy the remaining spider cocoon, he withdrew the flame dragon, leaving only a little fire to illuminate.
Tianming approached the stone gate, as if sensing his arrival, a "boom" sounded, and the stone door opened in response-
A bright hut appears.
In the corner of the hut, the treasure chest glowed brightly, as if to celebrate the arrival of the heavenly underworld.
Seeing the treasure chest for the first time, Tianming stepped forward curiously, didn't think much about it, and reached out to open the treasure chest.
The moment the treasure chest was opened, a poisoned arrow shot out!
This is a facility designed to cultivate students' vigilance and awareness of the dangers around them while obtaining treasures.
The speed of the poison arrow is so fast that even a fourth-order magician will be attacked if he is unsuspected!
But Tianying didn't give it face at all, and waved his hand away lightly when it was close to his eyes—
The original "sinister" secret weapon was fanned into a corner without face...
Without the hidden weapon, the contents of the treasure chest were displayed in front of the eyes of the Celestial Underworld - a magic crystal and a third-order magic book.
It doesn't matter about the magic book at all, Tianying picked up the magic crystal and studied it:
It is a hedron containing a large amount of compression magic, transparent, and light purple in color.
Based on this, Tianying guessed that in addition to the coins that Karil said, magic crystals should also be able to assist in the cultivation of magic, the arrangement of magic arrays, the absorption of magic essence, and so on.
Thinking about it, Tian Ming tried to absorb the magic element in it, but in less than a second, the magic element of the magic crystal was absorbed by him and turned into a useless waste stone.
Tianming was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood something:
"Sure enough, the magic crystal can be used to absorb magic essence, but it shouldn't be of much use to high-level magicians."
Compared to the magic elements flowing in the Heavenly Netherworld's body, the magic elements contained in the magic crystals are not even particles.
"Let's go to other places, if it's all like this neighborhood, it will be boring."
Compared with the "leisurely" Tianying, the other students are miserable:
There are also green-eyed poisonous spiders that are too numerous to parry;
There are those who are seriously injured when they trigger the mechanism as soon as they leave the safety zone;
There are those who open the box but are injured by hidden weapons;
There is also a person who accidentally stepped on a trap and was teleported to an enclosed space...
There are also such a number of people who are not very lucky enough to encounter a third-order demonic beast and are beaten to the ground.
Within an hour of the start of the exam, dozens of people were already forced to "leave" the maze.
Except for the Heavenly Underworld and a few fourth-order magicians who remained in the labyrinth, there was basically no one who was relaxed.
There are, of course, exceptions -
In a corner of the labyrinth, there was such a third-order magician, who had obtained a good score of 300 points in just one hour without any injuries!
This means that she has defeated at least one third-order demonic beast, and defeating a third-order demonic beast with the strength of a third-order magician is not a simple matter!
Shortly after Tenhode left the Chest House, she unexpectedly arrived.
After carefully opening the treasure chest, she was pleasantly surprised to find the third-order magic book that had been left behind.
"Great! I've got another magic book! ”
The girl with the magic book jumped up excitedly and smiled happily······
