Latent Labyrinth, Hub Hall.

Bai Xiaowen and the three of them continued to move forward, and while Yahan was exploring the way in front, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi quietly opened the treasure chest dropped by Leona.

Leona has a kill rating of A, and has three draws without a bye.

"You got a special item: Tales of the Abyss (books). ”

"You have obtained a high-level psionic crystal*7. ”

"You've earned an Equipment Enhancement Card: Four Stars. ”

The three draws did not draw the golden equipment, but Bai Xiaowen was not disappointed. At least, the four-star equipment enhancement card and the high-level spiritual energy crystal, which can be used to strengthen the equipment, are the good things used by Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, and they will not lose if they are drawn.

As for the book "The Legend of the Abyss", Bai Xiaowen probably looked through it.

"What's in the book?" asked Li Shuyi in the team channel.

Bai Xiaowen said: "This book is about the latent maze that exists in the abyss of shimmering, and it devotes a lot of space to writing about the dangers and opportunities in the latent labyrinth. In the blank part of the book, there are also notes written by Leona when she was a human. ”

Bai Xiaowen flipped through the back and said: "Leona was originally a nun of the Church of Light, but for some reason, she abandoned her original beliefs and began to chase the power of the abyss. Well, and finally, there's information about Amotava's mysterious will...... I can see why this particular item has such a high priority in extraction, and it turns out that this is the way to give us some information to refer to. ”

Li Shuyi listened attentively: "What information is there?"

"Amotava, a legendary creature of the Kuroshio Plane World, is said to have nine heads, a body as huge as a mountain, and the head towers into the clouds, at the level of the stars......" Bai Xiaowen shook his head and smiled, "Of course, this is an exaggerated technique, but Amotawa is very strong, there is no doubt about it." ”

After a pause, Bai Xiaowen continued: "When Amotawa was a disaster to the world, an organization called the Sect of Destiny was born, under the guidance of the Tablet of Prophecy, the warriors of the Sect of Destiny found Amotawa's weakness, killed him, and sealed his body in the latent labyrinth under the abyss, and then the warriors each held a part of the relics peeled off from Amotawa's body as a proof of glory and brought back to the Kuroshio Continent. ”

"These relics are the so-called 'Dragon's Eye', 'Dragon's Fang', 'Dragon's Heart' and 'Dragon's Scales'. Later, these relics were lost and never mentioned again, so there is no need to say more. ”

"Let's talk about the Sect of Destiny first, after killing Amotawa, this sect had a major disagreement, the prophet who held the prophecy tablet was brutally killed, and the disciple of the prophet came to the latent labyrinth with the prophecy tablet according to the teacher's will, and sealed the tablet and the remains of Amotawa together, removing the source of the trouble. ”

Li Shuyi said: "Then now, is Amotawa going to be resurrected?"

"It can't be regarded as a resurrection," Bai Xiaowen turned to the last few pages of the book, "According to Leona's records, the 'Lord' in her mouth, that is, the mysterious prompt sound of the Transcendent Game, is a more powerful existence than Amotava, and she is just borrowing the remains of Amotawa as a carrier to rule over the Kuroshio Continent...... So, the wreckage of Amotawa should be regarded as some kind of container. I now understand that the other side needs to complete the wreckage of Amotava, that is, to keep the container as intact as possible to carry his power. ”

"So, now that the other party only has the dragon's eye in your hand and the dragon scales in Ahan's hand, you can complete 100% of the wreckage?" asked Li Shuyi.

"That's right, now his transformation completeness is 80%, this is the result I saw with my insight," Bai Xiaowen said, "I still suspect that the mysterious existence should know the identity of me and your Awakened Outsiders, and there is storage space." Unless I voluntarily hand over the 'Eye of Amotawa', he won't get it even if he kills me. ”

Li Shuyi had a sudden feeling: "That's why he went to such great lengths to come up with some transcendent game, just to deceive you obediently and send your eyeballs over." ”

Bai Xiaowen nodded, and then said with a little emotion: "Actually, if the other party uses reasonable means to trade normally, I can't give him eyeballs, as long as I can come up with something that satisfies me...... The Kuroshio Continent is not the earth, even if I cause a flood, I can walk with a pat on the ass. ”

Li Shuyi can understand Bai Xiaowen's mentality, the awakened are basically mercenary in the spirit realm, as long as they can get enough benefits, even if they are enemies of the entire plane world.

"However, the other party can't offer anything good to exchange with me. Bai Xiaowen summed it up.

"When I pretended to pray before, I got a hint of 'Abyss Infusion', which can increase our strength, not only to increase the level by 1, but also to upgrade the template. Li Shuyi said, "If you can get this kind of benefit, you will earn it." ”

Bai Xiaowen smiled: "You think too much...... Well, this kind of enhancement is indeed possible, but the price is not easy to say, and you have to accept the transformation of the other party. If I'm not mistaken, the premise of accepting this kind of transformation is to actively dedicate all your body and mind to the other party and become the most loyal slave of the other party...... If we do, we may never be able to return to Earth again, and we will have to live as a special spirit being. ”

Bai Xiaowen thought of the world of the King of Fighting, and the transformation technology of the Sound Nest organization was to tamper with the target's memory and implant the order of absolute loyalty to the Sound Nest while transforming. He has always been wary of the so-called transformation.

Suddenly, Ahan stopped in front of him.

"There is another fork in the road, come, prophet, and show us in the way. Ahan smiled and said a second line, which was a bit humorous.

Bai Xiaowen stepped forward.

It is a three-way intersection, and in front of each fork, there is a statue sitting cross-legged. The statue is a human-faced beast body, and it looks inexplicably familiar.

"It's ...... Sphinx?"Bai Xiaowen thought back, "They can't talk, right?"

The riddle of the Sphinx, on Earth, is a story that even children know. However, the three sphinxes in front of him are obviously not something that can be dismissed by guessing a riddle.

The Eye of Amotava radiated a turquoise glow, and a prompt text on the dome revealed:

Three Guardians are in front of you

Guardian of the path of truth

Be true to the truth and be consistent

Guardian of the Rap Path

It's hard to tell if it's true or fake

Guardian of the Way of Death

Turn your back on the truth and lie with a mouthful of lies

O traveler who has gone astray

You can tap the Guardian's ear

Ask them where the truth is

But each Guardian has a limited patience

Only one question will be answered

See through the illusion and go straight to the essence

Make the most important choice of your life

Hopefully not the last option

This prompt text is relatively long, and after reading it carefully twice, Bai Xiaowen said: "It's another reasoning problem, I found that the builder of the latent shadow maze likes to play this hand, and we have solved several similar problems along the way." ”

"What does this text mean?" asked Ahmad.

"These three sphinxes are the guardians of the prompt text. The three paths behind them are called the path of truth, the path of rap, and the path of death. Literally, the road to death should be a Jedi that leads to death, and the road of rap should be a detour that twists and turns and never ends, and we must take the path of truth. ”

After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again: "The next text is the point. The guardians of the path of truth will never tell lies. The guardians of the rap road may or may not say what they say. And the guardians of the path of death, contrary to the path of truth, will never speak the truth. Each Guardian answers a question, and we have to think about how to ask, and get the logical information to deduce the right place on the path of truth. ”

Li Shuyi said: "There are three of us, and with Kitts, there are four...... If everyone could get answers from three Guardians, wouldn't there be a total of twelve questions?"

"You're thinking too much...... We are a group, and we will not give you more opportunities on three issues in total. In addition, the question we ask is probably limited, and it is invalid to have multiple questions in a sentence, or to ask for multiple pieces of information in a single question, otherwise the fork in the road will be too simple. ”

In order to verify his guess, Bai Xiaowen tapped the ear of the first Sphinx and asked, "Where do these three paths lead? Which one is the path of truth, which one is the path of rap, and which one is the road of death?"

The Sphinx didn't react, and the conjecture was confirmed.

Bai Xiaowen tapped his fingers lightly and thought for a while.

Li Shuyi and Yahan automatically entered the salted fish mode and looked at Bai Xiaowen.

"I don't have a 100 percent way to get the way of truth, so I can only give it a try. ”

Bai Xiaowen stood up, walked to the sphinx on the first road, and tapped the other party's ear: "What road is behind you?"

The stone of the Sphinx trembled, and between the opening and closing of the mouth, a slightly old voice sounded:

"The sweat and tears of the fools soaked the path, and all they got was meaningless repetition. ”

Bai Xiaowen looked sideways at Li Shuyi: "The guardian of the first path claims to be the path of rap, so it can't be the guardian of the path of truth - the reason is very simple, if it is the guardian of the path of truth, it will definitely not lie." ”

Li Shuyi nodded a little ignorantly, she and Yahan had switched from salted fish mode to 666 mode.

Bai Xiaowen came to the Sphinx on the second road, tapped his ears and asked, "What is the first road?"

The Sphinx replied:

"The blood and bones of the dead paved that road, and they paid with their lives for their recklessness. ”

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes, walked quickly to the Sphinx on the third road, tapped his ears and finally asked, "What is the first road?"

The Sphinx replied:

"The flower of truth weaves a wreath of wisdom along the way, and by following that path you can go to the other side of the guidance of fate. ”

Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's easier to tell now." ”

Li Shuyi nodded and said, "Since the guardian of the third way said that the first path is the path of truth, it means that it is lying, which means that the third path is not the path of truth...... Then the path of truth is the second. ”

Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "That's right, according to the answer of the guardian of the path of truth, we can still know that the first is the path of death, and then the third is the path of rap." Let's go, I feel closer and closer to my destination. ”

Along the second road, the trio made their way forward.

I have to say that the inside of the latent shadow maze is amazing, and the three of them obviously chose the right path of truth, but they still walked for a long time, and they also encountered a new deep-sea snake man interceptor on the way, but the leader-level snake man did not appear again.

In the process of walking, Bai Xiaowen was also silently calculating the time. This aspect is very simple, you don't need any brainpower, just take a temporary look at the cooldown state of Fury Claw's ultimate suppression - the cooldown time of suppression, up to 8 hours.

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi both truly felt the difficulty of the Kuroshio Plane World. He and Li Shuyi's ultimate moves have been handed over, and if he encounters the three snake leaders again before the cooldown time improves, I'm afraid it won't be as easy to deal with as in the previous hub hall.

You must know that among the remaining three snake man leaders, there is also a level 9 boss Jerald.

In addition, those human leader-level and elite-level powerhouses who have been bewitched by the mysterious will are probably also being transformed at this moment, if they are transformed into snake people and a group of strong reinforcements, the situation of Bai Xiaowen and the three of them will be even worse.

Finally, there is the big boss, the mysterious will that resides in the wreckage of Amotava. It (gender/ethnicity unknown, for now) would definitely become a super nuisance if it were to force 80% of the current containers as a carrier.

The only good news is that it shouldn't come so decisively until the mystical will determines that there is no hope of completing the wreckage.

I walked forward for several hours, passing through several hub halls and destroying several waves of deep-sea snake man monsters, but the logic of the fork in the road like before never reappeared.

When passing a downward corridor, Bai Xiaowen suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice, "There is another hall in front...... It was much larger than the hub hall we were passing through, and in it, I scanned the breath of some powerhouses. Moreover, I can feel that the other party also has a similar psychic detection, and we have been discovered. ”

"Do you want to wait, although the cooldown of the Demon Fire Jade Pendant has long since ended, my golden weapon side skills have not improved. Li Shuyi whispered.

Bai Xiaowen is also facing a similar situation, the howling skill of the angry claw has been restored, but there is still about 2 hours of cooldown time left for the ultimate suppression, and the state at this time is not perfect.
