When the slight vertigo caused by the portal dissipated, Ann Yizhi and a depressed John stepped onto the first level of the Tower of Trials. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

【Main Quest Update】

【Pass the first floor, Battle Trial】

Ann shook her dizzy head with a finger and looked around.

The candidates who came in before them stood together in twos and threes, chatting softly, and in front of them was a middle-aged mage wearing a feather hat with his head down, chanting words in his mouth, as if casting a spell?

Following his gaze, I suddenly felt my legs and stomach go weak.

They are now twenty or thirty meters above the ground......

An Yizhi admits that he has no fear of heights, but that also depends on the situation, standing on the roof of a building and looking down is completely different from floating in mid-air.

After a while, the fear slowly receded. Only then did An Yizhi notice that it was not them floating in the air, but a large crystal floor cushion with high light transmission under his feet, and the feeling of being down-to-earth made him feel a lot more relieved.

Beneath the crystal floor is an open space the size of a football field, with stone pillars in the clearing. The stone pillars are covered with swords, axes, and signs that seem to have been bombed, and it seems that they have experienced a lot of battles.

Overhead are dotted with various magical patterns, both to provide a light source for the first layer and to be part of the Tower of Trials.

This is what the caster uses for qualification, and there are no runes and elaborate magic mechanisms that are too embarrassed to greet others......

"Well, we're almost there. I'm the examiner on the first floor of the Tower of Trials, so you don't need to know what my name is, because it seems to me that few of you rookies will make it to the end."

The middle-aged mage finished the incantation, glanced up at the closing portal, and said.

"Only the first floor of this Tower of Trials has an examiner, and from the second level onwards it's up to you. A word of advice to you, if you don't have confidence in yourself, it's still too late to leave, and there are quite a few candidates who die in the Tower of Trials."

Since the candidates dared to come to the test to obtain the caster qualification, they naturally had an understanding of the risks involved. The middle-aged mage is just a cliché reminder.

"Okay, since no one has withdrawn, let me explain the content of the first layer of assessment this time, look at the foot"

The middle-aged mage clapped his hands, and four tall and powerful monster phantoms appeared in the open space under everyone's feet.

"Trolls, ogres, trolls, minotaurs. Presumably you all learned the basic knowledge about these four monsters when you were in school, and today your opponents are them, and each person who enters will randomly select a monster to fight against them, and victory will pass the first layer. If you fail, you should give them more food."

The candidates' faces turned pale, and the middle-aged mage said again:

"But if you admit defeat quickly, if I have time to intervene, I may be able to save my life. Remember not to be reckless, who has any problems? Okay, that candidate...... Your name is ......"

The middle-aged mage looked down at the list: "An Yizhi, what's your problem?" ”

"Can I join with my friends?"

"Of course, if you can find a helper, you can have as many people as you want."

The middle-aged mage's words relieved some of the candidates, they had already formed a 'strategic alliance' before coming here, and it would not be too difficult to face one of these four monsters if they could help each other.

But then the middle-aged mage's words made them give up the idea of several people challenging at the same time.

"However, you can't just face one monster when you play with multiple people. For example, if you challenge with the pale-faced kid next to you, you'll be dealing with 4 random monsters at the same time, and the number of monsters will be equal to twice the number of participants."

it! I knew that hard dungeons weren't that easy!

The levels of those four monsters are all about level 15~20. It's not too easy to single out one of them with An Yizhi's strength, but it will be very expensive to deal with four at the same time, such as his fireball ring with 4 shots left.

The Fireball Technique was originally one of the most powerful D-level skills, and it was a bit overkill to bombard them, but if he didn't use it, An Yizhi was really not sure that he could deal with four at the same time without the front row of meat shields, not to mention that he had to bring a drag oil bottle that couldn't help much.

"Didn't anyone ask questions? Below...... The candidate whose name I pronounce will start the exam. Bodna......"

The candidate, Bodner, was a diminutive boy, and after reading his name to make sure he hadn't formed a team, he was teleported into the clearing at everyone's feet the next second.

Soon, his opponent was also teleported in.

A minotaur with a giant plate axe.

Don't look at the appearance of the Minotaur's muscles exploding, think that it is just a well-developed limb and simple-minded, but in the monster profile of the Player Handbook, it is mentioned that the Minotaur is cunning, has a talent for dark vision, and is extremely good at tracking and detecting adventurers who break into the labyrinth.

They use all sorts of heavy weapons, and it's trivial to chop up boulders with an axe. Moreover, it has rough skin and thick flesh, and has no weakness attributes, and it is almost impossible for low-power spells to threaten it.

Coupled with a sprint speed of more than 9 meters per second, the Minotaur can be pretty scary for most adventurers.

Counting the appearance of the minotaur with horns nearly four meters tall and Bodner, who looks less than one meter six, on the field at the same time, just looking at the size of both sides, there is no suspense in this exam.

"Bodner's guy is so unlucky, he was the first to play, not to mention he ran into the Minotaur"

"Yes, I remember when I was in school, he was a guy who was bullied for a long time because of his small size, and he was more than lucky to the Minotaur"

"I hope he admits defeat soon, for the sake of his classmates, I really don't want him to be hacked to death"

"Don't think too much, instead of worrying about him, think more about how to deal with it later"

"yes......"

Listening to the whispers of the NPC candidates around him, An Yizhi was speechless.

Size really doesn't have much to do with strength.

"Ann Yizhi, I'm really dead. Looks like I can't even get past the first floor! When I go back, my father will definitely kill me, and as the only member of the family who has not obtained the qualification of a spellcaster, I will be written into the family history as a negative textbook...... No, you don't have to wait for Dad, I won't be hacked to death when I get on the field. ”

The more John looked at it, the more he felt less faithful, and now his face was as white as a dead man.

Ann rolled his eyes and didn't interject.

Even if all four fireball spells are used, An Yizhi will find a way to let John pass, after all, whether he is qualified or not is related to the side quest reward. As long as the side quest is completed, the minimum clearance settlement of this dungeon is also excellent level equipment or D-level skills can be obtained.

However, it is better not to use it. An Yizhi was racking his brains to think of a way, too lazy to deal with him.

"My only wish is to ask your help to burn my body to ashes and scatter it into the sea, which I have always wanted to see. I didn't have a chance to go before, but I hope I'll see enough after I die. Do you have any wishes? ”

“……”

I really want to take a needle and sew this thing up......

An Yi pointed to say something when the crowd erupted in exclamation.

The Minotaur made an accelerated charge that crossed less than 50 meters between the two sides, and the axe, which was bigger than Bodner, was raised high and threatened to slash him in two.

At this moment, Bodner, who had never been favored by everyone, suddenly raised his head.

His eyes were red, like a flame burning in them.

Then, a dark shadow suddenly appeared from behind Bodner, it looked a bit like the chaotic ghost that Ann had encountered in Palundesius before, but its body was much more condensed than the chaotic ghost that was almost like an illusory shadow.

The axe, which had been a fatal blow, could no longer be cleaved after the black shadow appeared, and the minotaur seemed to wrestle with an invisible enemy, panting for breath, but helpless.

"Eat it"

Bodner said coldly.

"Hey, hey, hey, ......"

The black shadow grinned and swallowed the minotaur with the axe, and the huge minotaur struggled in its 'body' for only a few moments, and then calmed down.

The black image writhed as if regurgitated, spitting out the big axe, the surface of the axe seemed to have been splashed with strong acid, the corroded pits were everywhere, and the wooden axe handle had been digested.

The sudden change surprised the few people who were talking about Bodner's defeat just now, but they didn't expect him to have such a hand.

The middle-aged mage who saw the black shadow's performance frowned, as if he was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything and announced that Bodner had passed.

Bodner in the arena looked at the crowd above him, his red eyes gradually returning to his usual clarity, and he didn't seem to show any joy in passing the test. After receiving the signal from the examiner to inform him of his pass, he walked to the staircase that appeared in the corner of the venue.

"Next, George? Bis"

The exam continued, and Bodner's excellent performance didn't seem to get the attention of the examiners.

An Yizhi's heart tightened, the glance when Bodner looked up just now seemed to be looking at the examiner, but An Yizhi felt that he was looking more at himself.

Silently reminding herself to pay more attention to the NPC named Bodner, Ann turned his head to John and said:

"Can you show me the spellbook you brought? Maybe there is something to be found above."

Generally speaking, you can't get quest rewards until you complete the side quests, but according to the character relationship settings of this script, the relationship between Ann and John is very good, and maybe you can get rewards in advance.

"Look, I'm going to die anyway"

John didn't have any confidence at all, it was just an ordinary family magic book, and he had dozens of magic books of the same level, and besides, there were no particularly brilliant spells recorded on it.

As he spoke, John took out a black book about the size of a notepad from his satchel and handed it to Ann.

【John's Family Heirloom Magic Book】

Quality: Oddities

Effect: Learns the magic skills after reading

Description: You'll understand after reading it (manual funny.)

System, you're going to rebel, aren't you? Manually funny your size!

Secretly complaining in his heart, An Yiyi opened the thin manual with one finger, and concentrated on slowly turning the pages at the usual speed of reading.

In fact, he couldn't understand what the words were on it at all, so he simply pretended that he could understand it......
