Chapter 1111: Two Teams
"Here...... It's spectacular!"
As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the huge underground ruins, the woman was firmly attracted by the huge stone pillars covered with moss in front of her.
Although the surface of the stone pillar was covered with a large amount of green moss and mushrooms, the exquisite carvings and the energy attached to them could still be observed.
As a spellcaster, she could cleanse and feel that each pillar was connected by a strange magical power, thus forming a tight protection.
Because of this, the ruins have not collapsed in a large area after more than half of the stone pillars have collapsed, and the original basic structure has been maintained.
The archer, on the other hand, was more concerned about the traps, traps, and monsters that might exist around him, and bent down to examine the footprints on the ground carefully, and finally warned in a very solemn tone: "We better be careful! These footprints only go in, but none of them come out." This means that whoever goes in does not end up making it alive. ”
"It's not a treasure that proves that it should belong to us, and it's still in it intact for the time being. There was a creepy glint in the woman's eyes.
She was so and thirsty, like a spider entrenched in the web, with the smell of a predator all over her body.
Undoubtedly, this is the true face of her dark believers, a madman who dares to do anything for the sake of power and wealth.
"Alas, hopefully not too many people will die this time. ”
The shooter sighed slightly, and glanced sympathetically at his new teammates, who knew nothing about his future tragic fate.
You must know that the Dark Believer Squad is not an ordinary adventure team, but a legendary squad that has always had an almost 100% mission completion rate, and as long as they can successfully survive to the end of the mission, they will definitely get a pretty generous reward.
In particular, they dare to accept the evil tasks that ordinary adventurers dare not touch at all, so that in the eyes of some people with intentions, they are simply the most perfect knives, and they can complete some of the shady conspiracies.
It is precisely because of this that no matter how many people the squad loses, it will not be too difficult to replenish.
After all, most adventurers know that being a member of the Dark Cult can be as dangerous as it can be.
But what they don't know is that this danger often comes not from the outside, but from the inside, from a woman who never claims to be the leader of the team, but has always held the supreme power.
Of course, as always, his fears soon became reality.
When crossing a bridge that is invisible to the naked eye, the woman thoughtlessly uses her two teammates as cannon fodder to detect if there is any trap in between.
As a result, one of the unlucky eggs was about to arrive on the other side, and suddenly fell into the Wanzheng Abyss, losing his life on the spot.
In this regard, the woman did not show a sad expression, but urged the rest of the people to move on.
The deeper she went into the labyrinth, the more she felt a strong call, as if in the deepest part of the ruins, something was waiting for her arrival.
......
At the same time, another adventuring party separated by a few passages also successfully passed the test, standing in front of a black metal gate.
At the head was a handsome young man in armor with short blond hair.
I saw him nod at the four scarred teammates behind him, and then strode forward and put his hand on the tab.
Moment!
The closed big slowly opened a gap, and an illusory black shadow fell from the sky, and a low hoarse voice came from his mouth: "Welcome, adventurers from afar." First of all, I want to congratulate you on coming out on top in your trials. But I also want to warn you that the closer you get to the Sacred Sword, the stronger your opponents and enemies will be. In recognition of your performance, I now give you a choice, one that you can walk away with your wealth and strength. ”
As the last word blurted out, the shadow suddenly opened its arms and summoned a large chest full of gold, silver, jewelry, and magical items out of thin air.
Pointing to the priceless things in the box, he continued unhurriedly: "You can give up looking for the holy sword, choose to take all the things in this box, and return to your own world in peace." You can join and choose to move on, and all the treasure will be lost to you. After all, the world has never been perfect, and what you want to gain must be priced. Tell me, what is your choice?"
"Do you need to ask, of course we have to choose the Holy Sword!" the young man wiped his sweat-soaked hair and grinned excitedly.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, my companions and I are not for money or wealth, we are for being the heroes of light who defeat evil and are admired by the world, just as bards sing about it. ”
"Well said!"
"We must find the Holy Sword and kill the wicked tyrant. ”
"For the glory of the kingdom!"
The impassioned emotions of the youth undoubtedly infected the whole team, so no one should be fooled by the valuable treasure in front of them.
Compared to an artifact, gold and silver treasures and magic items are obviously far from enough.
The essence of any intelligent creature is greed, a never-ending desire for desire.
Without such an essence, then they would not have been able to develop little by little from primitive times and eventually enter the temple of civilization.
Knowing that they are only one step away from the best, most people will not choose to retreat, even if they know that there is great danger ahead, they will not hesitate to take a step.
Self-knowledge and rapid retreat are easy to say, but there are very few that can really do it.
Looking at the adventurers in front of him who did not waver in the slightest, the black shadow nodded slightly: "Okay. Since it's your choice, come in. Remember, from now on, you will not only be dealing with monsters, traps, traps and puzzles, but also adventurers who are in the final part just like you. Everyone will have a life-and-death battle on a level playing field, and the winner will be eligible to enter the room where the sword is located. ”
"What do you mean...... We're going to have to kill each other?" The blond young man's eyes widened, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
"Yes, not just killing each other, but making some of the hardest decisions of your lives. Believe me, the pain and despair is beyond most people's reach......"
