Chapter 1115: Hero's Qualifications (Part II)
There are no swords and swords, and there are no tragic battles.
As the trial of the heart officially began, the three participants soon entered the deepest corners of their consciousness that they had almost never touched.
Although they all appeared to be calm on the surface, as if they were asleep, in reality each of them was engaged in the most dangerous battle.
Only this time the enemy you have to face is no longer a powerful dragon, but another self, an opponent who has no privacy and no secrets.
I don't know how long later, when the woman was the first to open her eyes, she suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed the other two teammates in the chest.
Burst!
Burst!
Scarlet blood gushed out, and it didn't take long for him to swallow his last breath.
Looking at the lifeless pale faces of the two, she sighed slightly and muttered in a voice that only she could hear, "I'm sorry, I have to do this, only in this way can I make sure that nothing goes wrong." I lost so much for this moment, so succeed no matter what. ”
"Tell me, what do you see in the depths of your heart?"
The ghost appeared in mid-air at some point, staring at two eyes as deep as a black hole and whispering.
"I came to infighting, strife, and death. No one can resist the temptation to hold the holy sword, and in the end only two others can be killed, and it is up to the victor to obtain it. The woman did not try to hide anything, and generously stated the reason for killing her companion.
From beginning to end, she didn't show the slightest look of sadness or regret, and looked calm and a little frightening.
Fortunately, the ghost is not a normal lifeform, but a special life between an energy body and an undead being, and there is neither ideological imprisonment such as ethics and morality, nor emotions such as fear.
It just nodded very calmly, then raised its right hand and pointed to the passage that had opened next to it: "Congratulations, you have passed the trial of the heart, and then as long as you complete the last trial, you can go to the room where the holy sword is." ”
"The last trial?" the woman frowned subconsciously.
Knowing that the first two trials had killed almost all of the participants, she wasn't sure if she still had the strength and energy to deal with the unknown dangers.
"Relax. The final trial doesn't require much combat or much thought, you just need to answer a few questions. ”
With that, the ghost led through the deep and dark passages, disappearing into the darkness where the fingers could not be seen.
"Damn! I hate being in a situation where I don't know anything and just do what others do. The woman gritted her teeth and whispered, but obediently followed.
In fact, when things come to this point, she has no room to retreat, just like a gambler who has almost pressed all her net worth, even if she knows that she will lose, she will still choose to fight to the death.
Nervous, anticipatory, and apprehensive, she soon found herself in a room that burned with countless magical flames.
In the center of the room, there stood a statue of gods and demons more than four meters high, and a person stood in front of the statue.
But because of the refraction of light, I can't see each other's faces clearly for the time being, but I just have a sense of déjà vu.
"Ah, you didn't disappoint me, and you finally came here through many trials. ”
The mysterious man took the initiative to take off his hood, revealing an extremely young face, which was Zhang Cheng himself, who had been waiting for a long time.
"Is it you?!" the woman was taken aback, her eyes shining in disbelief.
"That's right, it's me. Zhang Cheng nodded slightly. "You know, from the first time we met, I had a hunch that you would be the chosen hero, a dark hero unlike the light heroes in most stories. Because you have such qualifications and are favored by the dark ones. ”
"I don't understand what you mean. The woman subconsciously took two steps back.
As a very sensitive person, she hates the condescending gaze in the other party's eyes, as if she is looking at the slaughtered lamb, and she hates her embarrassment of being played with by others.
"Hahahaha! I don't understand, I don't think you want to understand. Zhang Cheng laughed and debunked the other party's little tricks, turned around and gently stroked the huge statue of gods and demons behind him. "Take this statue, for example, more than 1,500 years ago, he was the totem of the faith of some glorious empire, a dark god who almost awakened from chaos. But unfortunately, at the most critical time, this empire collapsed from the inside, split into countless forces, they fought and killed each other, and finally formed the current political pattern of the continent. ”
"God of Darkness?!"
When the woman heard this, her eyes suddenly burst into a frenzied light, staring directly at the broken stone statue.
"Yes, he is the god of darkness, Rois, the only god in this world who comes closest to awakening, and even now whenever someone calls his name, he can get a kind of mysterious energy in return. It is waiting for a believer to awaken his senses, to awaken himself from ignorance, and to bring true faith to the world. Tell me, are you willing to take on this responsibility and accomplish a great feat that has never been done before?"
When he said this, Zhang Cheng's tone was full of endless temptation.
There is no doubt that he knows very well what the woman in front of him really desires in his heart, and he also knows what kind of things the other party cannot refuse.
Awakening a dark god with your own hands is almost the supreme goal and glory for a mortal who calls himself a dark believer.
Suddenly, the woman felt that her usual calmness and composure had long since disappeared, replaced by a heart burning with raging flames.
There was silence for about two or three minutes before she took a deep breath and asked, "Who are you, and what do you want me to do?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, it's important that I have a good script in my hand and I want you to play a very important role in it. Of course, in return, I will satisfy your long-standing desires and find a final home for your empty and lonely soul. God is the sustenance and home of the human spirit, and often the more empty people are, the more they desire to have it. The misfortunes of your childhood have determined that you are a person in great need of faith, so nothing will give you more pleasure than awakening a dark god. Zhang Cheng casually told the ironclad truth.
Because of poverty, there is a desire for wealth;
Because of humility, so longing for power;
Because they are weak, they crave strength;
Because of emptiness, there is a desire for faith.
The more mortals often lack something, the more they crave something.
This is an eternal law, and it has nothing to do with whether a person is smart or not, or the level of education......
