Chapter 311: The Minotaur
"O noble Poseidon, who rules the seas!"
"Please protect me from this bull demon!"
Ronald has always been a pragmatist.
If memory serves, the Minotaur was the king of Crete who offered Poseidon a sacrifice to prove the legitimacy of his usurpation, which angered the Greek god before Poseidon sent a bull to tempt the queen to give birth to the monster Minotaur.
Refer to this example.
Ronald felt that praying to this Poseidon should be the most effective way at the moment.
Actually, though......
After he uttered this prayer, it is not known whether Poseidon blessed him or not.
But behind him only got up the Minotaur.
Immediately, there was a roar of great rage.
"Roarβ"
The roar was filled with the fury of the half-human, half-bull monster.
Even if Ronald and this guy's racial separation is quite obvious, you can hear the other party's very bad mood now.
The same original trials.
I'm afraid that when facing Hal and Edward, this monster's attitude is far less enthusiastic than it is now, right?
ββ¦β¦β
And such a minotaur, will there be any special moves?
As he ran, Ronald turned his head sideways to look in the direction of the Minotaur.
It was this time that he turned his head sideways and let him escape.
The Minotaur's eyes were red as he got up, and while chasing Ronald, the monster first circled around the stump that Ronald had seen earlier, and pulled out the axe that had been cut into the stump with one hand.
Immediately, the Minotaur waved his arm.
Brush β
Thrown with all the might by a monster like the Minotaur, the sharp axe swirling in the air tore through the air, and Ronald's vision couldn't even tell whether he was facing the blade or the hilt.
But there is no doubt about it.
If you are slashed, you will die!
And this axe, which can definitely crush people to death, is now whirling towards Ronald.
"Tsk-"
In the face of such an attack, Ronald did not have any room for hesitation at all.
Rolling forward without hesitation, he lowered his height in the most convenient way.
Boom!
Almost the next second, the sound of rock cracking came from front of Ronald.
The axe crossed his position and smashed directly into the stone of the mansion, and the strength of the Minotaur was so great that even the solid rock shattered in an instant.
And the gate, which was originally attached to the door frame, was directly bent diagonally because of the effect of this blow.
ββ¦β¦β
"Can this be beaten by a human being?"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Ronald hurriedly got up, turned sideways and decisively bumped into him.
Smack-
The gate, which was already in danger, collapsed in an instant and fell to the ground.
Ronald then rushed into the house.
I don't know how long it took to be uninhabited in the house, and suddenly a thick layer of dust was splashed because of this action.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
Holding his aching shoulder with one hand, Ronald covered his mouth and nose with his elbow and continued forward.
He now misses the Divine Comedy's enhanced power on his body.
This weak body could not match the physical strength he was already familiar with.
Hurriedly bypassing the porch and entering the living room, Ronald could tell that the living room of the house was also a place where no one had been there for a long time......
No, it should be said that the owner has not returned for a long time.
Both the table top and the floor were covered with a thick layer of dust, and even the food and wine barrels that the owner had not eaten before leaving were buried in the dust.
Whoop -
"Roar!"
At this moment, there was another movement behind Ronald.
It was the sound of rock fragments falling to the ground and the Minotaur roaring.
The half-man, half-bull monster had made its way to the door, and had once again picked up the axe from the broken rocks!
That's when the hint that Heloise had left for Ronald not long ago worked.
The more dangerous it is, the more we must calmly analyze the current situation and look for possibilities.
Rather than blindly relying on your own 'new skills'.
Considering that Daedalus made the Wings of Icarus for the purpose of flying, and wanted to find something related, the destination of this trip must be the rooftop location on the top of the residence.
There was enough height and space there for Daedalus to experiment and use the Wings of Icarus.
Even the staircase leading upstairs is very visible, it is on the left side of the living room.
But if you rush forward in this way, you will rush forward regardless of it.
Then, relying on his own language literacy, he directly forcibly interpreted the original texts......
Can you really succeed on your own?
Through the thick dust of the living room, Ronald is bound to leave footprints here.
Although it has the intelligence of a human being.
But the Minotaur, who is just behind, obviously also has the most basic thinking ability of living beings.
Follow the footprints and chase them up.
It's really unknown who is fast.
With a staring gaze, Ronald ran to the table, and then pulled the cork out of the barrel with all his milking strength.
Bang β
Although it has been a long time, the wine in the barrel has not deteriorated.
With Ronald's movements, a fruity liquid immediately flowed out of the barrel.
However, it was corresponded to the scratch from the old iron ring on the wooden plug on the palm of Ronald's hand.
Red blood immediately oozed from the wound.
"Shhhh
I don't have time to take care of the injuries on my hands right now.
Ignoring the deep wound, Ronald still grabbed the cork and immediately turned around and rushed to the side of the stairs.
He would do this at this time, and the reason is still the legend of Theseus.
At the time of the Greek hero's feats.
There is a theory that he took advantage of the Minotaur to sneak up on him from behind while he was drinking, and this was the result of a neat victory.
Then this is on the table, a fine wine made by the master of Daedalus.
Maybe it's part of the trial.
Ronald rushed up the stairs with his front foot, followed by the Minotaur, who was chasing after him.
The half-human, half-cow monster bowed its head slightly.
So I saw Ronald's footprints on the ground.
"Shhh
Gasping heavily, the pace of the Minotaur's pursuit began to slow down.
- It smells of fine wine.
Since Daedalus and his son left, the monster that lives in the labyrinth hasn't had a drink for a long time. But at this moment, the unavailable drinks flowed down the opening of the barrel to the ground right now.
Even the Minotaur's intellect understood what that meant.
If not blocked.
Then the remaining fine wine will soon run clean and it may never have a chance to drink these beautiful things again.
The steps of the Minotaur did not lead towards the staircase chosen by Ronald.
Instead, he turned his head and walked towards the barrel.
The half-human, half-cow monster is now like Atalanta's defeat in the race because the Apple stopped in place.
