C139 (1/2)
I was trapped, so Zhang Ziyuan naturally didn't want to leave.
”Wife, hurry up and leave!” If I close the door later, I won't be able to open it! ”
Zhang Ziyuan was right, if my thoughts are not wrong, then the mechanism outside is precisely for the sake of trapping the people inside, and once it closes, it would be like putting down a Dragon-Breaking Rock, and there would be no way to open it.
”Let's go together!” I waved my Space Abyssal Sword and forced Hermit back a few steps. Then, I pulled Zhang Ziyuan and ran towards the main gate. Yue Feng was standing at the entrance waiting for us anxiously.
Zhang Ziyuan and I flipped the door open just as it was about to close.
”Damn, that was close …” Yue Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead.
At this time, the Hermit inside could still be heard using the gigantic kitchen knife to look at the wall.
”I think he must have been trapped here for too long. He must have gone mad from starvation.” Looking at the marks left by the Hermit's kitchen knife on the walls of the long corridor, it was likely that he had not stopped for a moment.
”Fortunately, the building is made of the most solid material. Otherwise, if one were to be chopped by this large kitchen knife over the years, this place would probably be completely destroyed as well.”
Since the Hermit was able to exist here for such a long time, then there shouldn't be any traps in this corridor.
On the stairs to the third floor, I decided to take a break. I was tired.
”I can't, I can't. Although I can't lose the competition, I must rest for a while. I don't have any strength left in me.”
”The use of Space Abyssal Sword will consume your own Spiritual Energy. The more power you use, the higher the Spiritual Energy and techniques you will need to use.” Zhang Ziyuan suddenly said.
”So that's how it is. I was wondering why you felt so tired when you reached the second floor. I was wondering what floor the Lei Feng Ghost Tower was on. It didn't look too high, but it was already at the third floor.”
Zhang Ziyuan touched his nose: ”Actually what I heard was, Lei Feng Ghost Tower s originally had eleven levels …”
After hearing what Zhang Ziyuan said, I immediately fell to the ground. I had no intention to stand up anymore. The eleventh floor! Then wouldn't we be exhausted to death? Moreover, the higher we go, the more difficult it would be to deal with the traps and ghosts.
Zhang Ziyuan shook his head: ”This tower is indeed level eleven, but the reality is different from what you imagined. ”Actually, the third floor we are on is the sixth.”
”Eh? ”What do you mean?” I don't get it.
Zhang Ziyuan explained: ”Do you know why we haven't met Fu Sang's Yin Yang Master at all after walking for such a long time?”
Hearing Zhang Ziyuan's question, I was also confused. ”Could it be that it's because of the mechanism, that we're not in the same space, and the people who enter through the two doors are unable to touch us?”
I explained the problem from the perspective of the mechanical technique.
”That's right. Generally speaking, in this place, there isn't just mechanical technique, there is also a powerful illusion technique …”
Illusion, another new term. I feel like I have to change my view of the world and life every day.
”Illusion? Another one? What is that?”
”From the shape of the building, it looks like it's an illusion technique. We can't even tell how many floors there are from its distorted appearance, and actually, we went upstairs was also an illusion technique, so I guess this place is either the first floor or the first floor, so we can't meet the Fusang Yin Yang Master, and I'm guessing that if we're not on the fifth floor, we're probably on the sixth floor.”
Hearing this topic, I began to be shocked. Originally, very silly and naive, thinking that you could challenge the legendary Lei Feng Ghost Tower after learning it for just a few days.
”In other words, if we want to go up to the first floor, it doesn't necessarily mean we'll have to go up to the first floor. If we want to win, we have to rely entirely on luck?”
It can be said that, but theoretically speaking, the first floor is equal to the second floor. If we went from the first floor to the second floor, then the moment we came in we directly went upstairs would be evidence. That means that the other party came in and stayed on the first floor, and then we went upstairs would theoretically be the fourth floor, so I think that we should be on the sixth floor right now.
”Sigh, it's so troublesome. We'll just go with the flow. When will it ever happen? What kind of floor would it be?” Yue Feng, who had a simple brain and developed limbs, was always so optimistic.
However, I noticed that something was wrong. ”That's not right. In other words, we don't even know what level we have reached. How do we know when we will reach the top? If there really is a trap that we can't break, then wouldn't we be trapped here? ”
When I thought about the secret room that sealed the Hermit, I had a bad feeling. If I couldn't find any traps in one of the floors, there was no way out.
Also, the construction here is very precise, I might not be able to find the exit even if I reach the top few floors. It's as if this place was originally a tall tower, and even though it seemed to be connected outside, a bottomless chasm appeared on the second floor, where does this chasm lead to, and how this building was built.
What a great pressure …
”But if we take over the top floor, that means the other way is still open, so we can go out through the other way?”
Sigh, he didn't think about it too much. Every step he took, he would take. Why did he feel a little regretful that he had accepted the other party's challenge and dug a hole for himself?
He looked at his watch. It was already half past two. It looked like the two floors had taken him more than two hours. If he wasn't faster, he would have been beaten to it by the enemy.
