Chapter 482: One Step Ahead

The path of strength and the path of wisdom seem to be a choice between whether the trialist is good at "strength" or "wisdom".

But in fact, this is not the case at all.

Among the fighters who enter the underground dragon tower, which one will lack "power"?

To put it bluntly, "only those under the age of thirty are eligible, and they can only enter once", this harsh premise itself has the most direct high requirements for strength.

Therefore, when all people have sufficient strength, the choice of so-called "strength" and "wisdom" is fundamentally a kind of confusion and a kind of misdirection.

In Midi's view, what the dragon head really gave was two choices: "conservative" and "challenging".

Choosing the path of strength means that the trialist is quite conservative and cautious, and does not dare to take risks lightly, and at the same time, it is also a proof of his lack of self-confidence.

Choosing the path of wisdom is, in essence, tantamount to choosing to face almost completely unknown challenges.

To dare to face the unknown, you need not only to be extremely confident in your own strength, but also to have enough courage and a good attitude.

It can be said that when a trialist makes the decision to "choose the path of wisdom", he can be regarded as having overcome a difficulty.

Choosing the "tenth layer" of the path of wisdom can be said to be the most difficult level to overcome difficulties.

The choice itself means overcoming the fear.

Therefore, although the specific trial content of the path of wisdom is alchemy, according to Midi's inference, this content should not be too difficult.

After all, judging from his contact with the dragon head, the Dark Dragon God should choose the heir of the True Dragon Inheritance, and definitely not an alchemy master.

Therefore, when Midi found that there was no flaw in the chamber, he was not particularly alarmed, but on the contrary, he thought that it was probably a reminder to the trialists not to think too much about the problem of alchemy.

And in the end, the fact that the teleportation circle can be activated by smashing the hourglass into a specific area of the ground proves Midi's inference.

The alchemical trial is completely a disguise.

It was a trial that even adventurers who didn't know alchemy and were resourceful enough and experienced enough could complete it.

It can be said that the first level of the entrance to the underground dragon tower, the problem of road selection, is fundamentally a thorough test of the mind.

However, almost everyone was deceived by it.

It is no wonder that in the past thousand years, the experience accumulated by so many big families in Mosoblay City is not of use in this underground dragon tower.

And Midi, who has mastered alchemy himself, has the ability to face the test of alchemy head-on, even if his inference is wrong.

Even if this alchemy is beyond the realm of his mastery, he can still ask the Eighth Apostle Lotus to help.

Therefore, Midi not only saw the strangeness, but also dared to try it without hesitation.

The final result was that he was paid a lot of money.

Go straight to the tenth floor of the Underground Dragon Tower!

There is no doubt that entering this tenth layer is equivalent to a big step ahead of all the others!

You must know that the first to tenth layers, in the final analysis, are all connected, in other words, if there is a team that directly teleports to the fifth layer, and Midi and the others teleport to the fourth layer, then, after Midi and the others finally come to the fifth layer, what they see should be a fifth layer that has been looted.

Not only that, but there is also the possibility that Midi's team will teleport directly to a level that has been occupied by other people, and thus clash on the spot.

Whether it's eating other people's exhaust fumes or clashing on the spot, it's a disadvantageous situation for exploration.

The most important thing to avoid in these two situations is to be able to go directly to a level that no other team has ever set foot in.

In other words, the lowest floor.

It's just that this is easier said than done, but how easy is it to do?

Before Midi arrived, the three teams of the Death Scorpion, the Red-Blooded Bat, and the Two-Headed Wolf had all entered the Underground Dragon Tower.

In other words, even if they enter the same floor, Midi and his party who are late may only eat the exhaust of other people, and may not even have a chance to have a head-on conflict, so they can only follow behind others all the way.

And if you want to enter the lowest level on the "Path of Power", it is also almost impossible.

Although after obtaining the "True Dragon Inheritance", Midi was extremely strong after being reborn from the ashes, he didn't think that he had reached the point where he could sweep through the Crystal Dragon Castle.

Not to mention anything else, Alex and Thor, he still can't see through them.

Especially "Fighting King" Thor.

This level 67 powerhouse can undoubtedly stabilize Midi in terms of pure strength.

It can be said that if you choose the path of power, you will definitely eat Thor's exhaust, and after catching up, it is impossible to take the lead.

But at this moment, Midi chose the "Path of Wisdom" and went straight to the guò test, leaping to the tenth level.

This is equivalent to solving all the troubles above at once.

No longer lags behind in the progress of exploration, nor does it enter the battle to the advantage of a third-party fisherman as soon as it comes up.

From now on, Midi is the frontrunner.

All of them can only follow Midi's back, follow the path that Midi has explored, and grab Midi to pick up the remaining treasures.

"Let's go, let's see what's in this underground dragon tower. With a hint of anticipation, Midi unfolded her psychic ability, "Half-View Sense", and strode towards the depths of darkness.

At the same time, while Midi went directly to the tenth layer, the other three teams that had entered the underground dragon tower in advance were also trying to march forward.

On the fourth floor of the Underground Dragon Tower, the team of two-headed wolf warriors is about to open this floor and is about to reach the entrance to the fifth layer.

The chief core disciple named Curt is a level 65 master, and in terms of level alone, he is on par with Daheni of the Flame Serpent, but because of the lack of a strong bloodline, he is usually low-key.

However, it is precisely because of the lack of bloodline power that this person is usually extremely cautious, and will never do things that he is not sure of, and he will never fight in an uncertain way.

Along the way, after entering the fourth floor, Curt also took one step at a time, steadily and steadily, so that he could directly reach the entrance to the next floor at the cost of zero casualties.

It's just a pity that when Curt does reach the fifth layer, he will be very disappointed.

Because, the team of the Red Blood Bat Family had already swept the main area of the fifth layer cleanly.

The fifth layer is a little more complicated than the fourth, except that Alex is present in the Red-Blood Bat family.

Although Alex has always kept a low profile, at least on the surface it looks a little worse than that Simon, but he is a high-level psyker, a real powerhouse that even Midi can't see.

As long as you use the psychic ability "Half Scene Sense", you can easily spot the various traps and traps in the fifth layer, and then, influence the minds of others, and the whole team will easily follow Alex's pace.

Compared to the two-headed war wolf's step-by-step camp, the red-blooded bat can be said to have had an extremely smooth journey, and it didn't encounter too many obstacles at all, and directly arrived at the entrance of the sixth layer.

However, compared to the First Family's Death Scorpion team, their record is a little inadequate.

"Fighting King" Thor also chose the "Road of Strength".

However, this is not because he is not confident enough in his own strength, nor is it because he has not seen through the misdirection in Long Shou's words, but because he wants to get some more loot.

If he chooses the path of wisdom, Thor will undoubtedly choose the challenge of the tenth layer directly, but that means that he will miss the first nine layers.

Even if the first five layers are counted, the sixth layer starts to the ninth layer, and according to the previous experience of the Death Scorpion, there are also quite a lot of heart-warming materials and inheritances in it.

Therefore, this "Dou King" simply chose the path of power directly, and then controlled his power within a range, so that he could directly start from the sixth layer and go all the way down.

However, it was the first time Thor had come to the Crystal Dragon Castle after all, so in the end, he couldn't get his wish and was directly teleported to the seventh layer.

It's a bit regrettable, but it obviously won't stop him from rushing forward.

Along the way, all kinds of alchemy mechanisms, magic circles, traps, etc., cannot be an obstacle at all.

Thor didn't try to dismantle these mechanisms, but directly crushed them all the way with an extremely strong level!

Under this domineering way of opening the way, the exploration team of the Death Scorpion naturally advanced at an astonishing speed.

While the other two teams had just finished cleaning this floor, the Scorpion of Death had already directly cleared the seventh and eighth floors, more than twice as fast as their opponents!

At this moment, they had reached the end of the eighth layer, before the passage to the ninth layer.

In front of this passage, there was a huge alchemy door tightly closed, and only by opening it could one enter the ninth layer.

As usual, Thor stepped forward directly, and a silver spear in his hand stabbed out directly, like a streamer.

Only this time, this stab hit the alchemy gate, but not even a trace was left.

From the seventh layer to the entrance of the ninth layer, the strength of the alchemy mechanism is also constantly improving, and now in this place, even the 67-level "Douwang" Thor can not continue to crush it.

"Hmph, it seems that this underground dragon tower has finally appeared something interesting to me. Thor said flatly, and then, making a commanding gesture to the back.

Immediately, Akdina, who ranked third, and Loki, who ranked fourth, stepped forward at the same time and began to inspect the alchemy gate.

Both of them have a certain degree of attainment in cracking the magic circle, and at this moment, they are trying to eliminate part of the protection on the alchemy gate, and then Thor will take action to break it.

However, this is only a stopgap measure after all.

The real best way to crack it, of course, is to try to find a master mechanic who will open the alchemy door directly.

Doing so not only saves time and effort, but also ensures the integrity of the alchemy gate.

When the next team arrives, they will have to face the obstacle of the Alchemy Gate again, which is tantamount to stumbling on their competitors.

But it's clear that "Fighting King" Thor has never been someone who will wait.

Over the years, only others waited for him, and no one else waited for him.

Midi deliberately delayed his cultivation in the Crystal Forest Sea, and Thor naturally wouldn't stay alone for him, even if Midi was a master mechanic.

"It's a pity, if you were willing to use it for me, you could have gained a lot of benefits, and now, without the protection of the team, how many floors can you start the adventure from the underground dragon tower with yourself and those small family fighters?" Thor muttered softly, a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth.
