Chapter 437: The Great Demon Trial: The Backward Path to Death
The Great Love Poet followed Hubertian up the stairs and looked back to make sure his teammates were ready.
After receiving a look in response, the poet of great love walked forward again.
"I'll take care of you this time."
Huberian whispered assurances to the poet beside her.
Then the two of them walked into the dark purple mirror portal full of mystery, and the air next to the door was layered by the slight ripples of the power of the void, as if magic was dancing gently on the surface of a calm lake.
The figures entered the portal, disappearing one by one, finally merging into the void that surrounded the deep purple light.
For a moment, the two felt as if they were falling rapidly from a sea of stars, and once again experienced the wonderful feeling of weightlessness, where the light and color that appeared from time to time were intertwined to form a distorted scene.
Until the speed of the fall began to slow down, and a dazzling light burst out from the exit, enveloping them in an instant.
“……”
The moment she stepped into this negative six layer of space, Hubertian's pupils couldn't help but twitch slightly.
She found herself standing in the middle of a large theater-like hall, with a high dome covered with intricate murals depicting totems of ancient demon myths.
This was a hall larger than any of the previous teleportation halls, and on the high platform, it was still a dark purple mirror-like void portal similar to before.
The group of them was not scattered, and there was no danger, the only difference was that they could feel the extremely cold air on the negative sixth floor, as if they were in a vast snowfield, not only their joints, but also their thinking would become sluggish.
The negative six floors are the deepest level, and due to the structure, there is no separate entrance and exit teleportation halls, and the only void portal is here.
Soon, the student bracelets of several people lit up with a crimson light curtain as always-
[On the sixth floor of Helrom Prison, you can get a large number of duty points by surviving and being on duty.] 】
[After meeting the assessment conditions for returning to the basic layer, you can open the trading permissions of the current level, and when the trainee prison guard completes the assessment, the remaining service points can choose to exchange salaries or convert them into credit points of the Royal Academy of Magic of Protos.] 】
[Current location: B6 floor of Helrom Prison, warden's office & teleportation hall.] 】
[Job content: inspection and maintenance. 】
[Note: After stepping into the non-safe zone on the negative sixth floor, you will fall into the illusion enchantment, and as you stay longer, the danger level of the illusion enchantment will gradually increase, and when you reach the upper limit, it will be a ninth-order illusion.] 】
[Note: When you are awake and the greater the fear in your heart, the higher the percentage of false damage taken in illusion that is converted to actual damage.] 】
[Note: On this level, prison guards can drink special snow spirits to eliminate the chill and increase courage, but you need to be careful of drunken coma, please do it in moderation.] 】
[Return to the base layer conditions: check the sturdiness and durability of all cells, and obtain the permission and final evaluation of the minus 6 layer warden.] 】
Hubertarian stared down at the information on the negative sixth floor.
Finally arrived at the last floor before leaving Helrom Prison, and it seemed that there was still a Great Demon Mind Test left.
Her difficult mission was going so well today that she felt like she had barely done anything, and she was just one last step away.
According to what the Ice Witch said in the Kingdom of Etherteran, the Great Demon Trial, known as the "Life and Death Pass", is called [Upside-Down Death Path], and the more afraid of death, the easier it is to die.
It is both an illusion and can inflict lethal substantial magic damage.
After falling into the [Upside-Down Path to Death] illusion enchantment, once a trace of fear begins to arise, the inner defense line will collapse in an instant like a dam bursting its embankment, completely destroying it at a rapid speed, which may be more dangerous than a trial of force in nature.
And this Great Demon Race Trial is almost the fate of Pranai of Truth, Pranai of Truth, who only wants to survive, will be almost 100% injured in the [Upside-Down Hanging Path], and daring to escape from the cell is suicide.
For the assessment of trainee prison guards, you can choose to drink a moderate amount of special snow spirits according to your own situation, assign a good route, and rush back to the safe area to recover after overhauling part of the cell on the front road where the illusion danger level reaches a high level, and at the same time, leave one person ready to go back and forth as quickly as possible to rescue teammates, which is very test of judgment and execution.
However, Hubertian now feels that the strategy given by the Ice Witch is useless.
No matter how hard the Ice Witch had told her two months before, Hubertian was sure that it would be difficult for a baby to actually experience it.
“……”
Hubertian stole a glance at the stunned poet beside him.
In addition to the few duty points he got when he was speedrunning on the minus 4 and minus 5 floors, Ranch now has a generous duty point, and when he asks Ranch, who answers that it was sponsored by Miss Selena, the warden on the minus 4th floor.
However, at that time, Huberian was in the falling gentle country dream, and she had no idea what was happening on the negative fourth floor.
Hubertarian was also worried about whether Lanchi was coerced or robbed, but Lanch said that Miss Selena Warden gave it to him voluntarily, and he didn't even mention it to Selena Warden, so Miss Selena paid Lanchi.
Hubertian could only put her mind at ease for the time being.
A few people were about to descend the steps when they heard the voice of the warden in the main hall.
"It's great to have a trainee prison guard here."
Huberian looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the teleportation hall on this level was a secure area that was integrated into the warden's office.
I saw that the warden engraved with the words "Deria" on the nameplate was leaning her legs on the desk, her facial features were deep, her eyes were strong and penetrating, she seemed to be able to look directly into people's hearts, and her thin lips hung with a touch of arc that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Although she was dressed in the warden's attire, she untied her tie rather casually and put on her coat because of the tightness of her upper body.
"Here, there is no way to die, there is no way to die, it is better to be drunk and dream of death."
The warden of Deria leaned back in her chair casually, tilting her head to look at the others and muttering.
She held a small shot glass in her hand and seemed to have just finished taking a sip.
Obviously, she was very happy to have a trainee prison guard, and without the help of the trainee prison guard, she would have to do the regular routine inspection and maintenance work herself.
Huberian currently feels that except for the Corendan wardens on the negative floor, it is a little difficult to communicate, the wardens on the negative fourth and negative fifth floors should be very good people, and the wardens on the negative sixth floor look at it with a bad attitude.
"We're going to work, don't worry."
Huberian saluted the Warden of Deria, who was on the sixth floor.
The task of this layer is very clear, there are two big demons, and there is also a demon craftsman Lanqi, and the maintenance is even easier.
"Wait, who told you to hurry to work."
Deria quickly lowered a leg from the table, stopped a few people, and beckoned to them.
Today's four watches, the last one is a little late, it's not over yet, and the evening continues to burn!
