Chapter 329: Illusive figure at the entrance of the cave
After just a few seconds, the battle on the high platform came to an end.
The pointed-eared man holding a longbow and capable of firing arrows quickly and accurately has been beheaded. His headless body fell on the stone platform. The head beside him rolled slowly under the influence of inertia. When it stopped, the head Shang Wushen's eyes were pointed upward.
The fierce man with a green face and fangs who looked like a monster died even more miserably. Although it was not beheaded, all its limbs were severed and cut in half. Although it was bleeding all over the ground, it was still making a last futile struggle.
The big frog's tongue, which is good at sticking out its tongue to attack, was cut off from the root, and then a hole as big as a bowl was pierced in the chest. It was definitely dead.
What caused the defeat of the three of them was the three dream self clones that Wang Zhifan transformed into a few seconds ago. However, after the battle, the three clones disappeared instantly. At the same time, Wang Zhifan's figure slowly emerged on the platform, looking at the people in front of him. masterpiece.
“The combat effectiveness of my clones has indeed improved a lot. Now I can deal with enemies that are not weak by relying solely on them, and I can hide myself in the dreams maintained by them, which is very safe.”
< br>It turns out that the battle just now was completely Wang Zhifan's practice. He escaped into the dream maintained by the dream self without injuring the three enemies, and then controlled the three clones in the dream to quickly eliminate all the enemies. body.
The difficulty is that his body cannot stay in the dream for a long time. Even if his current cultivation of the Dream Sword Sutra has reached Level 6, he can only stay in the dream for three or four seconds. Controlling three clones to fight simultaneously in such a short period of time was a delicate job, and the opponent was not a particularly weak type, so he did not expect to succeed before the battle.
But the practical results were very good. His clone had already solved all the opponents before he left the dream, making him feel that his current growth was multi-faceted and beyond subconscious judgment.
Sheathing the Wolf-Destroying Blade with no trace of blood on the blade, Wang Zhifan soon saw the corpses on the high platform disappearing into the air like ice and snow melting. In the end, only a long bow and a weapon belonging to the enemy were left. longbow.
"Is this thing the so-called reward?"
With a sudden understanding, he stepped forward, bent down to carefully examine the characteristics of this long bow, and found that before the battle, he found that the long bow was surrounded by The airflow on the bow still exists, and the whole thing is filled with an aura of mysterious power.
“But even the text introduction panel is not triggered, how do I know its name and characteristics?”
Staring at the long bow for several seconds, the description box that popped up in anticipation was delayed. When it didn't appear, Wang Zhifan had no choice but to pick it up from the ground and try to stuff it into his personal space.
But this copy was too stingy, and he found that his attempt to put it into the portable space failed. This showed that the copy did not regard it as a reward output, which meant that this thing could only be used in the copy and could not be taken out.
"You can't ask me to keep this thing with me forever..."
Wang Zhifan was speechless. He didn't know what the quality of this longbow was, nor was it very convenient. The way the ground carries it is directly tangled in place.
He tried to pull the long bow in the air, causing the empty bow string to tremble through the air. Then, with his strong sense of perception, he discovered that there was a stream of air flying out in the direction where he lowered the bow. But this airflow was very weak. Not only did it not cause any trace of attack, people with weaker perceptions could not even know the existence of the flying airflow.
"Not even a single arrow was left for me... I can only speculate based on the battle just now that its archery attack power is pretty good, but it is only good."
Wanting to find an arrow to test but unable to find, Wang Zhifan decided to make a final decision on the first gain from entering the tower, whether to carry it with him or just throw it on the ground.
Two seconds later, he made a decision.
"Take it with you first. It is not an ordinary item at least. Even if you take it outside and sell it for money, it will still be useful."
Here you can see the characteristics of his commoner background. He doesn't want to throw away valuable things, and even if he has a lot of items for sale in his portable space, this mentality will not be affected.
So he held the long bow in his hand and turned towards the third spiral staircase that had appeared nearby.
This time's spiral staircase is very different from the last standard wooden spiral staircase. It is actually made of many old stone slabs stacked up, and spider web-like cracks can be seen on many of the stone slabs, which does not look very strong.
"This should be a clear indication that there is something wrong with this staircase."
Wang Zhifan immediately understood the purpose of the tower, approached the spiral staircase and looked up, but he could only vaguely see The stone slabs on the third floor, because the worn stones that make up the spiral staircase block too much sight, no matter what angle you look at, you cannot see the details, and you can only roughly infer that the light on the third floor is not very good.
“The correct way to pass the level should be to use hook locks or flying to go up to the third floor, but I want to try taking this broken staircase to see what tricks it can do.”
With a hedonistic attitude towards playing dungeons, Wang Zhifan decided to give it a try after a moment's thought, because he knew very well that his current strength could cope with various unexpected situations, and the so-called "defeat" would not bring a very bad ending.
He held the long bow as the second-level prize in one hand and the Wolf-Destroying Blade in the other, and stepped gently onto the three-level spiral staircase made of broken and old stone slabs.
The feedback of the stone slab to the soles of the feet is just as it looks. Vibrations and abnormal noises will be heard as soon as the slightest pressure is applied, as if it may collapse at any time. Wang Zhifan walked on it step by step, trying his best to control his exertion to be dexterous and even. Delay the expected collapse of the spiral staircase.
But when he walked all the way to the middle section and could see the three floors above, the spiral staircase still maintained its original appearance and did not really collapse, which made him a little disappointed.
"The setting of this staircase is so simple? You only need to be more agile to pass it? It's a bit boring..."
Wang Zhifan thought and looked up at the third floor above. On the third floor, he found that there was only deep darkness there, like a night without moon and starlight, but with his extraordinary perception, he knew that there was some malice hidden in the darkness, some malice from enemies who made him feel equally uninteresting.
"Boring."
Feeling unhappy, he suddenly stopped walking on light feet. A slight exertion of force under his feet caused the entire spiral staircase to tilt and crack, and quickly began to collapse. At the same time, he himself also relied on Using the basic footwork of the Wind and Thunder Stepping Heaven Technique, he jumped into the air and jumped towards the third floor, preparing to start the cleanup work that would not lead to many surprises.
But before he reached the stone slab at the edge of the third floor, he suddenly discovered that the spiral staircase that he had just deliberately collapsed collapsed unusually.
To be specific, the entire staircase did not turn into a pile of stones. Instead, they all fell into a dark hole that appeared below at an unknown time, and there was not even a sound of bottoming out from the hole. It looks a bit weird.
“So there is this kind of routine hidden here? It’s a little interesting...”
Wang Zhifan felt the desire to explore for a moment, so he immediately separated a dream self and jumped into the dark hole below. He landed lightly on the stone slab on the third floor, held the long bow on his left wrist, and used his left hand to help his right hand. The Wolf-Destroying Blade he was carrying was unsheathed.
In the darkness on the third level, almost instantly, something like substantial malice came towards Wang Zhifan. It was an evil thing without substance, and there was more than one in number. In the deepest darkness, launched a cold offensive.
Wang Zhifan had already anticipated this situation. He easily dealt with it with one hand, using the sword with one hand. As the power of his body circulated, he slashed a wide range of swords, and a huge and bright sword light immediately penetrated the entire body. The third floor briefly illuminated this empty space, and at the same time, there were some subtle whimpering sounds that were not easily detectable by ordinary people. They were the reaction of many evil spirits being collectively killed.
“It’s solved, it’s as simple as expected.”
Wang Zhifan was not surprised at all when he solved all the enemies with one sword, because he knew well that the Dameng Sword Sutra was causing mental and physical harm. It is very good in terms of soul damage, which means it is very restrained against this type of enemies. The evil spirits have no chance to show their charm and are collectively saved. After all the enemies were wiped out, he saw that the light on the entire third floor quickly recovered, changing from the darkness just now to an ordinary dark environment, and at the same time, an illusory tall figure also formed in front, facing him.
"Hello, human being."
The outline of the phantom does not look like a human being, but more like the projection of some evil existence. It appears at this time, looking towards this side Wang Zhifan made a somewhat enthusiastic voice and said hello.
"Who are you?"
Wang Zhifan couldn't feel any obvious malice from this vague inhuman figure, but he didn't think that the other person was here to have a relationship with him, so he immediately asked calmly road.
"I am a businessman, a businessman who advocates fair trade, and can provide you with some valuable help in the process of climbing this tower."
The illusory figure answered quickly, and his tone was still full of enthusiasm, which made People have lowered their vigilance and disgust towards its unclear image for nothing.
“Tell me specifically what you can do to help.”
Wang Zhifan immediately felt that this guy was interesting and asked immediately.
The illusory figure didn’t show off, it paused briefly and answered:
"I can provide you with the equipment you need to fight, the medicine you need for treatment, the wisdom you need for growth, the abilities you want to acquire, and the wishes you want to fulfill... Everything can satisfy you, as long as you pay The price is affordable.”
“Oh? What do you want? It’s not an ordinary gold coin, right?”
A smile appeared on Wang Zhifan’s face after hearing this. The existence of Dahua is unlikely to be short of money, and must have other agendas.
“Of course not.”
The illusory figure expressed his denial after hearing this.
"I like many things, but what I love most is the soul. A unique soul, especially a special soul like yours, fascinates me deeply... I am willing to fulfill any of your wishes, as long as you promise to give your Sacrifice your soul to me.
Of course, I will come to collect your soul when your life is about to end, and I will never interfere with you when you are young and happy."
The figure explained himself. The demand made Wang Zhifan feel that there was a big disadvantage.
"Okay... do you know where the devil is? I need to find him."
Wang Zhifan then spoke again, seemingly already inclined to agree to the other party.
"Of course I know."
The illusory figure answered without hesitation after hearing what he said, appearing confident.
"But before I tell you the answer, you have to sign your name on this contract, and then I will complete the transaction as agreed."
It sounded seductively In response, a piece of parchment with a faint flame burning on the surface was spread out out of thin air in front of Wang Zhifan. The parchment was filled with densely packed words, none of which Wang Zhifan could read.
"I just want to know the whereabouts of a demon king, and you want me to sign a contract and sell my soul? Do you think this is a fair deal?"
At this time, Wang Zhifan really couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that this illusory existence had too many problems. It was not as clever as it appeared at all. His identity as a liar was written on his face.
But the other party did not have this consciousness. Instead, he explained to him the rationality of the transaction.
"Humans, the Demon King is a secret and powerful existence. It is more difficult for you to obtain its whereabouts than anything else. If ordinary people use their souls in exchange for this information, I will never agree, because this will lead to I'm seriously at a loss, but your soul is different, it has a higher value, and I'm willing to do it Sign this agreement that represents the future."
"Oh... you are so kind... I am so moved..."
Wang Zhifan nodded slightly after hearing the other person's nonsense. He nodded and looked at the mysterious contract that appeared in front of him, making the illusory figure feel that the deal was expected to be concluded.
But in the next moment, a light knife composed of countless golden stardust and bright red luster penetrated the contract, leaving a large, irrecoverable hole on its surface. In the next moment, it was split into two halves by the light knife, which made people look forward to it. The illusory existence that developed next roared in disbelief.
"No! This is impossible! My treasure!"
The illusory existence seemed to be extremely shocked, unable to believe that its contract would be broken by a human being, and it was a very serious damage.
"Go to death with your treasure!"
Wang Zhifan didn't care about its roar at all. Not only did he use the Blade of Time he suddenly took out to break the opponent's contract, but he also planned to The opponent attacks itself, even if it doesn't appear to be the original one coming.
"Human! I remember you! Wait for my endless revenge!"
The illusory existence may be due to the extraordinary power of the Blade of Horror Time. After hurriedly saying the cruel words, the figure disappeared and ran away. , unwilling to face Wang Zhifan's follow-up attack.
But what he didn't expect was that Wang Zhifan had no intention of letting it go at this point. He held the Blade of Time in his hand and activated a law ability in the direction in which it fled.
“Backtrack!”
With the emergence of the time-based ability of the Blade of Time, the illusory figure that had just disappeared without a trace appeared again, and looked very confused.
