"Hello, Grandmaster Kairos!" When Link called out these words, he did not see the face of Grandmaster Kairos. To be precise, Link saw nothing.
Standing on the stairs, Link was about to take one step to the upper level. He had already discovered that what appeared in front of him was not the familiar floor and walls of the upper level, nor the large guard guarding them.
Mentor, but there is only darkness.
A pitch black that was too thick to dissolve.
It was as if what was behind the last step was the endless void, a dark void without stars, moon, or any light.
So Link took a good stance first and shouted respectfully to Grand Master Kairos who was guarding this floor.
Light and darkness are rules that only Grand Master Kairos can control.
However, what was waiting for him was still silence, as if what was in front of him was really a dark night void, so dark that one could not see anything at all.
Link finished the last step and took another step forward. His whole body melted into the deep darkness, and then he discovered two things.
The first is that the floor that should belong to this layer of space is still there. At least what Link is stepping on now is still the familiar black stone floor. With Link's extraordinary sensitivity, he can rely on some of the steps under his shoes.
Extremely subtle differences to determine this with absolute certainty.
This also proves that Grand Master Kairos only used his rules about darkness to cover the space on this floor without actually changing anything. After all, he is the Grand Master who controls the rules of darkness, not the rules of space.
Great Teacher.
Now Link is still not sure what kind of test Grand Master Kairos wants him to pass, but it is almost certain that it is related to this darkness, so Link has been paying attention since he stepped on this floor.
Despite every subtle difference in the surrounding environment, the spatial structure of this floor has not really changed. This is always a thing to be thankful for. All the structures of these floors in the Challenge Road of the Mage Tower are basically the same.
No matter how hard it was, Link had already passed through so many levels, and he felt that he always had some impression of it.
In fact, even if you can't see anything, maybe it doesn't matter.
If Grand Master Kairos ignored him, he might as well just pretend he didn't see him and sneak up to the next floor according to the floor structure in his impression.
Link thought this, because the second thing he discovered was that he was also missing.
From the first step into this deep darkness, Link found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not even see a single finger of his own.
Link has known Grand Master Kairos for so long, and this is the first time that he has been truly enveloped in the rules of darkness, so it is the first time that he has such a profound understanding of what it means to be blind.
But until this moment, Link was still very optimistic. He began to recall in his mind the structures of the floors he had just passed. Although he could not remember everything, he could still figure out the general direction.
, using the stairs he just walked up as a reference, Link felt that he should still be able to find the right path. The reason why he kept moving cautiously was just to hide it from Grand Master Kairos.
But Link immediately knew that he was wrong, and very wrong!
Just when he began to reconstruct in his mind the structure that this level of space should have, he was shocked to find that the scenes of each floor of the space on the road to challenge that should be clearly presented in his mind were actually
It was also shrouded in a deep darkness, and he couldn't "see" it at all!
This is really a feeling that is difficult to explain. Every normal person with memory can replay some impressive memories in his mind by closing his eyes, but Link's current situation is very strange.
It was strange. He could clearly feel that he had recalled the specific distribution of everything in each space on the Challenge Road, but he could not "see" it at all. He could feel the existence of memory.
, but when that memory emerged, it seemed to be deeply shrouded in darkness, making it impossible for him to obtain any useful information for the current situation.
"No way!" Link was a little unbelievable. He had not understood before what the purpose of the Dark Law was. If it could only cause an effect similar to locking people into a dark room, then
How could Grand Master Kairos become one of the four great mentors in the Mage Tower by virtue of mastering the rules of light and darkness?!
Now Link has begun to understand a little bit. Although the dark law of Grand Master Kairos currently seems to only cover such a level of the realm, it can already make people who are in his dark rules, regardless of the past and
The future, even the time and space that only exists in memory, can only be shrouded in thick darkness forever.
"The transformation of time and space still requires your ability to promote it, but no matter in any time and space, light and darkness are everywhere!"
Now that Link recalled the words of Grand Master Kairos, he had a new understanding.
The current self can no longer be described as having sight as blind. Even if you are born blind, it is impossible to be like you are now, without even a glimmer of light, whether in reality or fantasy.
"Hey hey hey", just when Link was depressed, the voice of Grand Master Kairos rang out at the right time: "Why don't you leave? I saw you were still snickering a little while ago?!"
"Damn, you can still see so clearly," Link cursed in his heart. His original hope that Grand Master Kairos himself couldn't see through this darkness was obviously bankrupt, so his face became more respectful.
He put on as cute a smile as possible and said towards the direction of the voice: "Master Kairos, your level is not really that difficult, is it?!"
"What's the problem?" Grand Master Kairos's voice rang out again: "It's just walking in the dark for a while. This is something that any kid can do. Your Grand Master Kairos has already done this this time.
That’s half-empty for you.”
"This is also called walking in the dark at night. Then all the children in the world would have been killed by the fall!" Link continued to curse, but he still asked respectfully: "Then my dear Grand Master Kairos, what are you doing?
Can you tell me clearly, what are the test questions for this level of yours?!"
"No, why did you become stupid after not seeing each other for a while?" Grand Master Kairos probably rarely saw Link in such an embarrassing state. He seemed to be very happy and did not miss any opportunity to laugh at Link: "I just tossed it.
Where did old Scuva's energy go?! I think you went through the first few levels quite smoothly!"
Link was always very well-behaved at times like this, and kept a smile on his face, waiting for Grand Master Kairos to speak.
If he were not in such darkness, someone might be able to find Link turning his head at an extremely subtle angle, as if searching for something. Of course, this guy is still well disguised. At least, he is the only one right now.
Grand Master Kairos, who could see in the darkness, didn't seem to notice anything strange about this kid.
"I've said before, this level requires you to walk in the dark for a while." After a pause, Master Kairos continued to explain. After all, Link is still a challenger.
As a guardian, he has the obligation to explain the requirements of the test clearly: "So as long as you can walk from here to the next floor in the dark, you will pass. During this process, I will never take action, so
As long as you..."
"Drink!" Just before Grand Master Kairos finished his last words, Link, who had secretly gained momentum in the darkness, jumped up and drew a perfect arc in mid-air, using a kind of
With a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye, he rushed towards a place in the darkness.
He did not pull out his knight's sword, but used his most familiar posture of knocking on a sap, raising it high, ready to give Grand Master Kairos a blow on the head!
Grand Instructor Kairos is not the old Skuva who controls the rules of space, nor is he the incomprehensible Grand Instructor Lei Ze. At such a distance, he cannot escape for such a short time!
So Link actually didn't dare to pull out his knight's sword. After all, the magician's body was still relatively fragile, and in this situation where Grand Master Kairos was completely defenseless, he didn't dare to act like before.
He used the sword without mercy like he did when he cut down Master Calvin. Otherwise, what if he really kills Master Kairos?!
When he was about to leave, Link realized that he still had feelings for the people in the Mage Tower.
A strange feeling suddenly flashed in Link's heart, but Link didn't pay attention to it now. His entire mind was focused on the attack in front of him.
Any magic that affects the operation of the rules must of course be promoted by magicians. As long as Grand Master Kairos is defeated, Link does not believe that the darkness in front of him can really be maintained like this.
There was a loud "bang"!
Just when Link calculated that the distance was appropriate and was about to swing the knight's sword that was used as a sap in his hand, suddenly an extremely dangerous feeling came over him. Link's rich experience allowed him to temporarily
He chose to move the big sword forward one space that he was about to strike down, thus avoiding his big head hitting the hard wall first. However, his speed was too fast, and in the end, his whole body was inevitably pressed against the wall.
The fate of climbing up and then sliding down softly.
"Hmph", Link struggled to get up. He felt that every joint in his body was in pain, but he just tried not to ejaculate.
"So as long as you don't hit the wall yourself, you won't be hurt." Grand Master Kairos's voice came from another direction, as if he had just discovered Link's movements, looking very surprised.
: "Why did you bump into me before I finished speaking? Is this a demonstration?!"
"Hehehehe, dear Link, do you smell something?" Although Link can't see anything now, he can still imagine the look on Grandmaster Kairos's face when he said these words.
His whole body was shaking with laughter: "The 'Ten Years Fragrance' you gave me last night really has a long aftertaste, but I accidentally spilled a little just now. You have to smell it carefully, you can still smell it."
You can see the taste, right where you are now!"
Damn it, let this old fox be shaken.
It turned out that he had already discovered that the pack of "ten-year incense" he gave him last night was a plan that had been planned long ago.
This legendary tea called "Ten Years Fragrance" is said to have to be stored for ten years after being collected, roasted and made before it can be considered truly authentic. And if you drink this tea, Link will once
I have personally tested it, and although it is impossible to achieve the fragrance that floats around the body and lasts for ten years as mentioned in the scriptures of the father of the Mage Tower, it can still last for ten days.
Although Link didn't know that Grand Master Kairos would appear in such a topic for him, he could probably imagine that it was related to the Dark Rules, so yesterday he gave Grand Master Kairos such a copy. It was not easy for Link to use the Law of Time.
The "Ten Years Fragrance" came out just because I hope there will be another logo in case I get lost in the dark.
Unexpectedly, this old fox had noticed it a long time ago, but he pretended not to say anything, and deliberately left clues to mislead Link, leaving Link confused.
Link didn't know that Grand Master Kairos had just now relieved the worry in his throat.
Although Grand Master Kairos knows that Link's skills are pretty good, he has never seen Link attack with all his strength in the past few years, especially with this kind of pure physical attack. Fortunately, Link's reaction can be considered fast.
Otherwise, if he really hit the stone wall, this funny little guy might end up hanging here.
Therefore, Grand Master Kairos was really sweating just now. If Link really got stuck here because of his prank, he really didn't know how to explain it to the other people in the Mage Tower. He wanted to come to Old Scuva
Qi Wei La had to fight for his life.
But Grand Master Kairos, who was now relieved, couldn't help but laugh non-stop when he saw Link struggling.
Since he had long expected that he would likely encounter the test of the Dark Rules, Link certainly made full preparations before embarking on the challenge.
Now Link, after experimenting with fire magic and finding that lighting magic had no effect at all, is using the rules of space to dig things out.
Candles, torches, oil lamps, powered illuminators, fireflies... everything that could produce light, as long as he could get it, Link got them all, but he soon discovered that all of them were
Has no effect.
The darkness of Grand Master Kairos can not only cover the existence and memory of the person in it under any conditions of space and time, but can also swallow all light, even if the light comes from magic.
, or from any other means.
"Are we really going to hang on this level this time?!" After trying out the last tool, Link finally stopped experimenting dejectedly.
Even when Anta in front had put the sharp claws on his head after transforming into an undead warrior, Link had never been as depressed as he was now.
After all, in a life and death fight, no matter how dangerous it is, he still has hope and confidence to defeat the enemy in front of him.
But now, this thick darkness that seems to persist stubbornly in all time and space is a completely unfamiliar territory for Link.
"If you can't get out, won't you never see Big Daddy and the others again?" Unknowingly, Link had sat down against the corner, looking at the darkness that seemed to have no end.
, and began to think wildly: "I wonder how Big Daddy is doing now? Is Little Daddy still drinking? If I can't get out here, I wonder if Old Skuva and Great Teacher Vera will come in to save me?"
Old Skuva is probably angry with me, but Grand Master Qi Vera..."
Suddenly, Link jumped up as if he had discovered something.
He no longer sat down, but touched the wall, touched the wall carefully, and moved slowly, and it seemed that he could already determine his position.
Grand Master Kairos looked at Link. From slowly walking along the wall, to gradually being able to actually grasp the position, he closed his eyes and kept walking around with his feet. The expression on his face also changed from
With a hint of a theatrical smile, it gradually became serious at first, and then at the end, the face of Grand Master Kairos was filled with surprise and disbelief!
"How is this possible?!" Grand Master Kairos finally screamed when Link successfully stepped up the stairs: "You brat, what kind of magic is this?! It's impossible! This darkness not only exists
The light that exists in all time and space and can swallow everything, whether it is real or illusory, no one can come out of it, no one!"
What Grand Master Kairos said is indeed true. Even the other Grand Masters cannot get out of this darkness. Of course, it is impossible for the other Grand Masters to fall into this darkness.
Go into an environment governed by the dark rules of Grand Master Kairos.
"I heard that no matter how much people like darkness, there will always be a glimmer of light in the deepest part of their hearts." Link turned around and made a face towards the darkness: "And I found out
, when I think of Grand Master Qiweila, her clear image can actually appear in front of my eyes!"
"Grandmaster Kairos, no matter how deeply you understand the rules of darkness, you are still reluctant to completely dissolve the image of Grandmaster Vera in your mind into the darkness." Link climbed the stairs.
, while saying: "But I don't think this is a shortcoming. Real and complete darkness is complete sinking!"
"I use my understanding of the rules of darkness as the answer to this level." Without stopping, Link had climbed more than half of the stairs and asked, "Do you think I can pass the level?!"
Until Link reached the upper floor, he still didn't hear the answer from Grand Master Kairos.
After an unknown amount of time, a long sigh from Grand Master Kairos came from the thick darkness.
"Sink...Darkness..." Grand Master Kairos seemed to be thinking about something: "Light...Qi Vera..."
