ps. Here’s today’s update. By the way, I’m going to vote for Qi’s 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. Voting will also give you coins. I beg you all for your support and appreciation!
The sound of treading feet echoed in the corridor. Duan Qing and several other people in the team were running up the stairs on the outer floor of the tower.
There was a short passage in the hole behind the wardrobe, and several people later discovered spiraling stone steps in the secret passage. Duan Qing and the others had no time to think about why the stairs were built in such a secret place.
——From the moment they ran up the stairs, the rumbling explosions and the snapping of giant trees outside began to become clearer. In the gaps in the stone walls, large tracts of dust were being shaken down, making the entire tower full of dust.
A shaky feeling.
"Kristine and the others still haven't come in yet. It seems like something happened outside. And if the records in the diary are correct, it would be bad if they came in..."
"But they are so strong, they should..."
"That's a magician from the ancient magic empire!" Duan Qing waved his hand, interrupting Mengzhu's words: "And you have all seen all the situations that have happened in recent times. The conclusion that can be drawn now is...
....”
Duan Qing looked at Xue Ling Huan Bing: "In this place, there will be corresponding countermeasures against powerful forces. It is probably a mechanism similar to the one that strengthens when strong forces are encountered."
The figure in a black cloak turned his head.
"Since this thing is effective for us players, it should also be effective for NPCs. Do you think the sisters don't want to fight and sweep across the forest? They probably suffered losses, so they didn't dare to take action rashly. From the first time we met
You can see it when you get to Christine. But now..."
Duan Qing, who was running, pointed to the source of the sound outside the wall: "They are fighting."
"If a battle of their level breaks out, it's hard to imagine how this forest will react, but no matter what...
"We're definitely going to be in trouble."
Duan Qing pointed to his nose, and then pointed to everyone: "The key to the problem is that if we are in a general virtual game world, it is normal for such an area ruled by a special mechanism to appear, but...
.This is the free world.”
"What's wrong with the free world? Isn't it just a name..." Liu Qingniu had fallen into confusion.
"Because it is a real free world, so..." Duan Qing paused, and then said word by word: "You can use any way to explain what happens here, but you can't use games.
Set' such a reason."
"Such a weird forest is impossible to appear in reality. Now that it has appeared in a 'real' way, there is a reasonable reason for it... Huh, now it seems that the name Emerald Forest is indeed correct.
..."
The sound of running continued in the revolving corridor, but silence still occupied everyone's side for a period of time. Although they did not read the entire diary, after knowing the contents of the diary, several people heard the name Jade again, and they felt naturally in their hearts.
It's different. After a while, Mengzhu asked first: "That is, they are all that jade stone..."
"It's not good now. After all, more than a thousand years have passed. Although I don't know what era the so-called Phoenix calendar is from, and the room has not been damaged with the passage of time. But my intuition tells me that a lot of time has passed here.
Over time, God knows what the emerald stone has become and what impact it has had on this forest..."
"A lot of weird things may happen in this forest now, and it may bring disaster. Freya was probably aware of this when she came here before, so she didn't act rashly, but asked her sister to send us away.
Come in and let us take care of it."
After running for a long time, even Duan Qing, who was more than ten years old, began to pant: "My current guess is this. Everything else should be revealed when we climb to the tower. Damn, this step is so long.
Ah, we took a few breaks..."
Because of the stamina bar setting, except for the two high-level players Xue Ling Huan Bing and Duan Shan Yue, no one else can maintain high-intensity exercise for a long time, so every time they climb for a period of time, they have to stop for a while to wait for stamina.
recovery - although this often only takes a few seconds.
After climbing the stairs for so long, Duan Qing and the others have never seen a fork in the road, and naturally they have not seen what the other floors of this tower look like. It seems that this secret passage is probably a direct train from the bottom to a certain floor. As for
Whether they get the direct access level depends on their luck.
"To sum up, even Christine and Freya cannot exert their full strength because this forest..."
"Probably, it's all speculation now. We can't predict whether they have the strength to compete. We're not even sure whether they can see this..."
"We can all see it. They are so powerful, so they must be able to see it..."
"That's not good. We are players, and we use game thinking. They are the results of optical brain calculations, not things from the same world..."
"I remember the first time we met the big sister in blue, she did run away later..."
"Hey, that big guy over there, you didn't encounter anything strange when you came here. Can you help us verify our current conclusion?"
"Hey, my name is not a big guy. And I have already been through everything I have encountered. Do you want to hear the story of how your Wings of Freedom ambushed us? How about we settle the accounts now...
..”
"You know that's not what she meant. Second Master... Well, Duanshanyue, apart from that uncle who is proficient in all kinds of weapons, have you encountered any strange NPCs...
"
"By the way, have you seen Trick? Well, it's someone who looks like Trick..."
"Who is that? Can you come here one sentence at a time..."
A sudden light appeared in front of them in this noisy atmosphere. Duan Shanyue, who was running at the front, was stunned by the sudden light, and then he was hit by the people rushing up from behind. He staggered two steps.
He fell into the room ahead.
It can no longer be called a room. Its ceiling has collapsed in half. A large number of stone bricks are scattered everywhere. The gloomy sky appears in the large void above, although it is not big enough to occupy the entire field of view.
, but still illuminates everything in the room.
Duan Qing stepped forward in two steps and subconsciously looked towards the exposed sky.
"Wow......"
"this......"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Several people made different exclamations. In their field of vision, above the hollow, was the tall body of the Emerald Tower that they had seen outside.
But this time, they saw it from the inside - the inside of the tower was actually hollow, with nothing inside except the thin wall made of gray stone bricks.
Except for the stairs.
In the eyes of Duan Qing and others, countless stairs are intertwined and entangled, extending upward and upward until they can't see the end. This emerald tower looked very high from the outside, and now they are raising their necks.
It's about to break, but you still can't see where the tower is.
Perhaps because of their age, the walls made of stone blocks leaked out strips of light, and large holes appeared in some places. Light pillars of different lengths and thicknesses criss-crossed the inside of the stone walls, illuminating the wooden or
On the stone steps, and complementing those steps, the interior of the entire tower exudes a blurry scene.
In fact, it looks like an almost perfect maze.
"Such a structure... how it was erected is so unscientific..." Xueling Huanbing seemed to be talking to herself, or asking her companions next to her.
"Don't dwell on such issues. The entire Emerald Forest is abnormal. As the center of this forest, of course this place will be... even more abnormal." Duan Qing said this, and Xueling Huanbing looked at him.
, found that the man no longer looked at the wonderful sight in front of him, but began to examine the things in the room on this floor.
Perhaps because of the damage above, this room is obviously different from the previous room - the ancient atmosphere does not appear here, and decay has returned to the world here again. Duan Qing looked around and saw broken bricks and scattered wood chips everywhere.
, the collapsed staircase wall, various appliances shattered on the ground - time has completely destroyed this place, and the original appearance of this place cannot be seen at all.
Opposite the entrance where they came in, there was a similarly decayed wooden door that led to some other place. To their side, there was a stone staircase, but only half of this staircase was left, and there was another one above.
Half of them didn't know where they went. There were obvious cracks in the section of the stone steps. Duan Qing looked at those cracks for a long time and then said: "It seems that this is still not the top level..."
"You're not talking nonsense..." Xue Ling Huan Bing rolled her eyes.
Duan Qing shook his head, and just as he was thinking about something, Po Feng's voice came from above.
A black shadow suddenly appeared in the hollow above. Several people looked up when they heard the sound. Before they could see the appearance of the thing clearly, the black shadow ducked and disappeared. Duan Qing still didn't understand what was going on. He felt a burning sensation.
Coming at you.
In the hollow above, the dark sky was getting brighter and brighter, and the entire room was becoming hot.
A huge fireball flew over in an instant. The moment it was about to hit the tower, the spherical flame suddenly decomposed itself and then turned into sparks all over the sky, just like a ball of wool that was pulled out of wool in an instant. Every thread of flames turned into flames.
The bars dispersed from there, flew, and then flew out in another direction.
The high temperature they felt at that moment slowly dissipated. Even so, everyone was still sweating. They didn't know whether it was because of the heat or because they were frightened by the scene just now.
Just as a few people were about to take a deep breath, another figure flashed above the hole again.
Everyone's nerves tensed up again, and then relaxed - that figure was wearing a gorgeous blue robe.
The figure stood still in the air, holding the staff, raising it towards the front, and then slowly spreading it from left to right. In front of her, a huge ice wall formed there, shining with aqua-blue light in the air.
"Everyone, you should have some understanding of the situation in front of you." The elegant voice belonging to Christine was accompanied by the explosion from the side, echoing in the small floor. Duan Qing could hear that this woman who has always shown infinite
The charming magician did not lose her composure at this time: "Since you have seen what is in front of you, then..."
There was a crisp cracking sound, and in front of her, a corner of the huge ice wall was suddenly shattered and shattered. The wall was falling downwards, turning into blue light in the air, and finally disappearing in the air. What was below
Several players hurriedly protected themselves, fearing that some fatal attack would suddenly hit them, but the woman in blue robe in the air remained very calm. The next moment she even turned around and looked at the hole in the room on the other side of the tower.
The gorgeous robe flew up in the air as she turned around, revealing the smooth and white legs of the great magician, and then disappeared from everyone's sight again as the robe fell.
"Hey, this angle is really good..." Duan Qing sighed. When Mengzhu stood next to him with a puzzled look on his face, Xue Linghuan spat softly with a cold face: "Pervert...
....”
"I know you have a lot of questions, but our situation is very...stalemate, as you have seen." Christine maintained the calm smile of a magician and said to the team in the hollow below: "So
I only weigh."
She suddenly raised her hand back, and a blue light suddenly appeared, and there was another crisp sound. It was probably that something was coming from that direction, and then it was blocked by her ice wall: "What you see is
A maze, its actual appearance is different from what you see now. If you plan to walk through it, you will probably get lost in the endless space soon."
"In our world of magicians, we are accustomed to calling this phenomenon the endless maze, which is handed down from an ancient spell."
Several players were holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to let go of her every word now, but just like what Christine said just now, the situation in front of her did not allow her to do much.
"It's a pity that apart from what I'm doing with you now, you won't get any other substantial help..." At this point, she touched her face with one hand and put on a sad look: "
It’s really embarrassing..."
There was another huge crisp sound on the huge ice wall behind her, and the entire ice wall became crumbling.
"We... have some understanding of the serious situation, dear lady." Duan Qing stroked his chest and then raised his head: "But please don't worry, we will solve the tower problem."
He smiled: "This is our responsibility as adventurers, and at the same time... it is also your hope, right?"
"So, among these brothers and sisters, you are my favorite." The woman in blue robe seemed very happy, and even shook her arms excitedly, as if to encourage them: "I have great confidence in you.
, you will definitely be able to break through these shackles and reach the ultimate... Damn old man, you are so annoying!"
The woman suddenly turned around, grabbed the staff and swung it forward. A huge sound was heard in the distance. It seemed that somewhere she had been attacked by her anger.
"Are you sure we will end well..." Xue Ling Huan Bing asked quietly, covering her mouth.
"Uh... there's no way out anyway, just do whatever you want." Duan Qing replied wiping cold sweat.
"Okay, one last tip: If you decide to go up, remember... don't believe your eyes as you move forward."
Kristine finished her sentence without looking back. In the air in front of her, the huge ice wall finally slowly collapsed with holes in it. She shook her right hand and held a beautiful wand. She was about to start again.
Flying back to the battlefield, Duan Qing's shouts rang out from behind.
"Sister Magic! I have another...professional question."
In the hollow above, the blue-robed figure could no longer be seen, but Christine's voice still came through: "Time is limited...what else do you want to know?"
In the room with the sky wide open, several people's eyes were focused on Duan Qing, as if they were waiting for him to ask some key questions. In the end, Duan Qing cleared his throat and asked a question that none of them expected.
"Excuse me, what is the Planck effect?"
The few people behind opened their mouths with expressions of "unclear consciousness".
"Huh...I don't know why, but..." Christine's voice began to get farther and farther away: "For example, think about the Trick you met.
..."
"I understand." Duan Qing said, and then shouted: "You also need to be careful."
no respond.
A smile appeared on Christine's face, and then she waved her right hand sharply. In front of her, there was another muffled sound, and as the blue light dissipated, a silent attack was released by her again.
"I have confidence in you, and you...you must also have confidence in us..."
She whispered.
"It seems... you are in a good mood, ahem..."
In a tree canopy below, Kangweina's skinny figure finally emerged: "Although your communication went smoothly, whether things will go smoothly after that depends on their performance..."
"They will do it." Christine said: "They are excellent adventurers..."
"Adventurer...hehe, I understand..." The old man's hoarse voice sounded very uncomfortable, and even Christine frowned.
"Do you really think that just the two of you can protect them..."
"It seems... we were watched, oh hehe hehe..."
The old man disappeared into the dense canopy again. In the air on the other side, Christine raised her staff again. A huge explosion suddenly appeared in the woods on the other side, and a red fireball belonging to another battlefield rose in the air.
, illuminating Christine's side face brightly.
The battle is about to escalate.
"Do you really think, ahem...we will let those adventurers move freely..."
"You...what?"
In the Emerald Tower, Duan Qing was still explaining something to the other people. In front of them, the unopened wooden door was kicked open with a bang.
Several figures broke in.
[515 is coming soon, and I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list. On May 15th, the red envelope rain will be able to reward readers and promote the works. It is also love, and I will definitely update it!]
