Chapter 330 Rune Key
"Tell me, where is the Demon King? Otherwise I will not be able to help but penetrate your body with this knife."
Forcibly bring back the illusory existence Afterwards, Wang Zhifan pointed the extremely powerful Blade of Time at the confused creature, threatening it to reveal the information it needed.
"Human, although I am surprised that you can keep me, my principles will not change. I only do fair transactions..."
Maybe it was shown by Wang Zhifan After being shocked by the means, this guy seemed to lose the huge anger just now, but he still showed an extreme hypocrisy and wanted to negotiate terms with Wang Zhifan.
"Fuck you!"
Wang Zhifan didn't have the patience to continue talking nonsense with it. Before it could finish speaking, he stabbed the illusory figure with a knife, causing this projection-like existence to suddenly distort its face and scream. a painful sound.
This reflects the power of the Blade of Time. Its damage-invulnerable effect is not simply about breaking defenses. It can also subvert conventional laws and cause damage. That’s why Wang Zhifan uses it to attack. At first glance, this existence does not belong to the original body, and its purpose is to cause as much pain as possible to the other party. Now it seems that it has some effect.
"Say it or not! If you don't tell me, I will let you enjoy it!"
Controlling the strength of the Blade of Time without breaking the phantom in front of him, Wang Zhifan after inflicting pain on the opponent asked with another threat.
"Ah! Why can you hurt me! Who are you!"
The illusory existence suddenly showed a frightened face. He could not understand how this human being could hurt its body through a projection. Although it hurt The amount is not particularly high, but this situation is really bizarre.
“I think you haven’t suffered enough!”
Wang Zhifan naturally didn’t answer when he saw this. He used the Blade of Time to hit the illusory figure a few more times, causing the opponent to suffer miserably. After much fuss, he was finally willing to reveal some information.
"The Demon King is in the seal! If you want to find it, you must collect runes to know the location of the seal!"
"Where are the runes!"
Wang Zhifan took the opportunity to ask. He was not sure whether what this guy said was true or false, but it was always good to know more.
“I don’t know...”
“You forgot about the pain again, right? Let me refresh your memory!”
“Ah! I said...no Man knows it all...but there is one in this tower..."
As Wang Zhifan's oppression continued, the endurance of this illusory figure finally reached its limit. Even if Wang Zhifan deliberately controlled it, he could not prevent it from being disintegrated by the terrifying power of the Blade of Time and completely turning into nothingness.
“Sometimes a weapon that is too powerful is not always a good thing... If we can re-examine it, we will definitely be able to get more information.”
The target has disappeared, and Wang Zhifan can only end it. He was interrogated, because the backward ability of the Blade of Time in his hand was to turn the target back to its past position, but it could not turn back time on the target and restore it to its state for repeated torture.
"The rune... the seal... I don't know if the information it revealed is true, but it sounds a bit like the same thing..."
He thought about what he had just obtained after all the trouble. The latest information, it feels like there is still some progress, at least there is a possible direction of action.
"The clone also made some discoveries. Maybe I should go over and have a look."
Then he turned his attention to the clone that he had previously thrown into the dark hole under the stairs. He had not controlled it when dealing with the phantom existence before. That clone, now that he has some free time, found that there was also some progress there.
Turning his eyes, he connected with the clone's field of vision and saw that this was a wide square. There was an inconspicuous statue in the center of the square, and a fierce group battle was taking place around the statue.
The two sides fighting were the twenty mercenaries and a group of giant bat monsters he had seen outside the tower before.
The monsters are very ferocious. They fly and attack the people of the mercenary group from all directions. The mercenary group's response is a little chaotic. Several members have fallen in a pool of blood, but there are also some people who are very strong. Together, The people next to him successfully killed several monsters, gradually pulling back the balance of victory.
Wang Zhifan's clone was hidden in the darkness, and most of the time it even went underground, so that the two sides fighting fiercely here did not notice its existence, and it did not want to get involved in the battle here, but slowly approached the statue in the center of the square, trying to Found some unusual marks on it.
"This statue contains a mysterious power, a very powerful mysterious power...it's a bit interesting."
Wang Zhifan confirmed this by relying on his clone to approach and investigate for a few seconds, and then Take a closer look at this statue.
It is not big in size, only the height of an ordinary adult, so it is inconspicuous. The image of the statue should be that of a woman of unknown age, holding her hands up as if holding a flower. Flower, the posture looks slightly strange.
“What does this action mean?”
Wang Zhifan, who was controlling it remotely, felt incomprehensible. He clearly knew that this statue was not an ordinary stone decoration, but he could not figure out its specific use. This was the disadvantage of the lack of text introduction information and the additional difficulty imposed by this copy.
“Protect the archers!”
“Watch your back! These guys like to sneak attack from behind!”
“Hang on! We are going to win!”
……
The battle in the square is still going on. Most of the surviving mercenaries cheered themselves up while fighting the bat monster. They paid some costs and gradually secured victory. Everyone's face was full of very firm will, and their eyes were filled with determination. There is also a look of hope.
Wang Zhifan's clone was hidden underground near the statue, silently observing their fight. He didn't quite understand why they were fighting here one by one. There were obviously some passages connected around the square, which led the bat monster to that kind of place. It is better to defeat them in a relatively narrow space, rather than letting them take advantage of flexible flight in a square.
As more and more bat monsters were killed, the threat they posed became smaller and smaller. Several archer mercenaries were able to fire arrows more easily and kill the remaining ones. The bat monster was eliminated more quickly and won the battle.
"Why don't those bats escape? Only two or three of them are dead, but they still charge at people?"
Wang Zhifan observed this strange scene through his clone, and felt that these monsters had no IQ. It's very low, a bit similar to the rigid monsters in the game.
But the victorious mercenaries quickly explained his doubts. They saw that they were seriously injured and came to the central statue one by one. A leader faced the statue and saluted:
"Great goddess, we have completed the sacrifice, please give us a precious treasure." As soon as the man finished speaking, a small object appeared out of thin air in the hands held by the statue, which was a slightly old copper The key made the leader's eyes suddenly light up.
"We succeeded! The goddess approved our sacrifice! The copper key will bring us a good harvest!"
The man said He walked forward and took out the key from the statue's hand, showing it to the other mercenaries around for inspection.
"I thought I could get the silver key. The sacrifice ceremony wasn't enough..."
A female archer mercenary wearing leather armor next to her sighed slightly when she saw this, and she seemed a little disappointed. The harvest gained from just one companion was not very satisfying.
"That's good. Sacrifice through battle rituals is not the best way."
The leader then spoke to her.
“Item sacrifice is what the goddess loves most, but we don’t have high-quality things in our hands. Even if we did, we wouldn’t sacrifice them, haha...”
He smiled mockingly to himself, and quickly led all the mercenaries towards a passage at the edge of the square. While walking, some people were healing themselves by drinking potions or casting spells.
When these people were far away, the clone of the dream self hidden underground suddenly emerged from the ground. At the same time, Wang Zhifan’s original self was also transferred here through entering the dream and breaking the dream, but before coming over, Wang Zhifan was in the original A dream self clone was also left in the place so that he could transfer it back at any time.
“Since this place will not isolate me from controlling the clones, it means that although they are in different spaces, they are not far apart, and the connection between each space is relatively close, so I can go hand in hand. Route exploration? ”
This is something Wang Zhifan feels he needs to take advantage of. When he entered this tower, he was divided into a separate space to break through the levels. The experiences of others were different from his, which also led to his lack of information, but now he can have the opportunity. Follow others and keep learning.
“Let’s solve the problem here first.”
Glancing at the direction in which the mercenaries disappeared, he did not rush to catch up, but stared at the statue in front of him, preparing to squeeze out the oil and water here.
“I want to start the battle sacrificial ceremony.”
First of all, he was going to imitate those mercenaries and create a ceremony to get rewards, but unfortunately he didn’t know how to start it. For this ritual, you can only rely on yourself to blindly say the spell you think you want to the statue in front of you.
After he finished speaking, he did not notice any monsters appearing around him to attack him. There were still corpses of bat monsters and mercenaries left from the previous battle, which meant that his attempt to start the ritual failed.
“Opening Ceremony!”
"Sacrifice!"
"Let me fight the monsters!"
......
Wang Zhifan continued to use his imagination to try after failing once, but the reality was cold. All of his actions went unanswered, which illustrates how infuriating a lack of intelligence can be.
Fortunately, he is not the kind of stubborn person. After several attempts failed, he changed his mind, because he remembered that those people just said that sacrifice does not necessarily require a ceremony, and it is also possible to offer items. .
"How should items be sacrificed...could it be put into the palm of this statue?"
After thinking about it, he felt that this approach was the most normal, and immediately took out a pair of high-quality shoes from his pocket gloves and placed it in the palm of the statue's hand.
In the first two seconds, he did not observe any changes in the gloves, but just when he was about to change to an unnecessary piece of equipment and try again, the gloves in the palm of the statue suddenly disappeared without a trace. In its place was a key, a rusty black iron key.
"It worked...but does this rusty iron key mean that the quality is worse than the bronze keys that the mercenaries took away before? This is also a sacrifice of sophisticated equipment. Is it possible that I have to sacrifice rare equipment? ,Excellence gives better?”
For this Wang Zhifan was not satisfied with this result. Although he could no longer use the sophisticated equipment, he still felt that the elite equipment was quality equipment and could be sold for money. He was asked to sacrifice the excellent equipment and above. He felt that he might lose money in exchange for equipment of unknown value.
"The quality is not enough and the quantity is not enough, let's try a few more."
After thinking about it, he took out a fine-grade wrist guard from the portable space, and also put it into the bag held by the statue. But this time he waited for about ten seconds, and the fine-level wristband did not disappear, which meant that the sacrifice failed.
“You have to force me to give you something better, right?”
In this situation, Wang Zhifan didn’t know that there was a high probability that his elite level equipment was disliked, so he kept the elite level equipment. Gloves was about to take out a rare piece of equipment to try, but before doing it, he suddenly thought of the longbow that he felt was inconvenient to carry not long ago.
“That’s right! I still have that bow with my clone, so it’s just right to sacrifice it!”
He just did what he said, and he immediately returned to the third floor where he belonged before through dream breaking. He picked up the long bow that was thrown on the ground for the clone to guard. However, after picking up the long bow, his eyes glanced at the ground not far away. Two pieces of tattered parchment lay on it.
These two tattered parchments were the contracts that the illusory being took out before. They originally looked very good, but they were forcibly destroyed by him with the epic blade of time. At this time, he had lost his former self. The faint flame covering it didn't look magical.
“These two torn pieces of paper can be reused. At any rate, the materials are certainly not ordinary.”
Feeling that they can be dealt with conveniently, Wang Zhifan picked them up together, activated Dream Breaking and returned. At the statue.
He then put the two pieces of torn parchment into the palm of the statue to see if there was any reaction.
But I didn't expect the result to come quite quickly. Almost as soon as I put it on, the two pieces of torn parchment disappeared, replaced by a golden key lying in the palm of the statue!
"Holy shit! Just give me the golden key?! Are those two pieces of tattered paper so valuable?!"
Wang Zhifan suddenly felt the disadvantages of lack of knowledge and felt that he was inexplicable He had lost a lot in his time, and he could only hope that the golden key he received in exchange would be worthy of the value he paid.
Then he placed the long bow on the statue's hand. After a few seconds, the long bow disappeared and he obtained a slightly old bronze key.
“It seems that the quality of this longbow is higher than fine, and it should be rare... If you calculate it this way, the two torn parchments may be epic?! After all, there are many things connected under the golden key. It would be a bronze key, there must be a silver key anyway... Such epic things, I actually threw them to the ground and ignored them..."
The disadvantages of not having item labeling information became clearer. Wang Zhifan now felt that he had lost one billion.
