City of Storms, a newly opened fourth-level main city, is located in the north of the entire Fantasy Continent. In the center of City of Storms stands a towering huge tower building, with its open door welcoming an endless stream of players.
Challenge, here is known as the ultimate place for players to challenge themselves - the Tower of Trials!
Standing outside the gate of the Trial Tower, looking at the majestic and gorgeous tower, Ling Yun couldn't help but marvel. Since entering the City of Storms, the first thing Ling Yun noticed was this tall building in the distance.
In the stormy city of various buildings, this tower-like building looks down on all living beings like a giant.
This is the Tower of Trials, yes! Ling Yun had already guessed it, and without any hesitation, Ling Yun went straight to it.
It has been a few days since the Trial Tower was opened. For the ethereal skill bonus of a few ten thousandths, people have never stopped coming to challenge, but they have not stopped challenging trials that are one level lower than themselves.
One person has succeeded! All the failed players gave only two words when they came out - abnormal!
Just two days ago, the first player to successfully pass the trial finally appeared!
After completing the third round, the swordsman named Yi Shuihan became more playful and entered the first-level trial with excitement. In the end, he successfully passed the first-level trial, although there was no bonus.
became a reward, but when he walked out of the Tower of Trials, people unexpectedly discovered that there was a small and exquisite silver star-shaped badge hanging on his chest. However, it was just a decorative badge that did not arouse the players' temper.
.
But not long after, a shocking news came out. Some players who were familiar with Yi Shuihan were surprised to find that his strength suddenly increased a lot, especially his combat skills, which improved by more than one level, and he suddenly became a local celebrity.
A master player!
After being asked by some familiar players, Yi Shuihan revealed the reason. It turned out that the reason why his strength improved so much in the blink of an eye was because of the combat skills he learned after passing the trial.
After this news came out, a new round of trial frenzy started again!
However, the goal of this trial frenzy is no longer the ethereal skill increase, but the first-level trial at a lower level that can improve one's own strength. Of course, the premise is that three turns have been completed.
Only players who are masters of rank 2 can pass the first-level trial relatively easily. If you accept the first-level trial with the strength of rank 2 or 1, the hope of passing is very slim, except for some perverted real-life masters.
Because most of the third-level players went to compete in the first-level trial, a large number of players wearing silver single stars appeared. For a time, hanging silver badges on their chests became a fashion in dreams, and over time it became a
A symbol of status! A way to identify masters!
Not long after, Ling Yun finally arrived in front of this tall tower. The closer he got to this long-rumored trial tower, the more inexplicable excitement and excitement he felt deep in Ling Yun's heart, as if to welcome it.
The unknown challenge is the same!
Looking at the players who kept pouring out of the Tower of Trial with silver single-star badges on their chests, the joyful expressions on their faces and the shining badges on their chests, Ling Yun just shook his head helplessly.
, because from the expressions and actions of those people, he can see that the current players are not challenging the trial to improve their own strength, but just for a worthless Silver Star Badge, but really to improve their strength.
However, there are fewer and fewer players challenging the trial. I have to say that this is really a kind of irony that puts the cart before the horse!
Ignoring these players who were showing off their Silver Star badges to their companions, Ling Yun walked straight into the Trial Tower.
Arriving inside the Tower of Trial, Ling Yun began to carefully examine the mystery of this magical Tower of Trial.
After squeezing into the crowded hall and listening to some well-informed players describing the various magical features of the Tower of Trial, Ling Yun finally learned some information about the Tower of Trial.
The interior of the Tower of Trial is a separate space that extends infinitely upward. No one can tell exactly how many top floors there are, but some people speculate that the top floor of the Tower of Trial is by no means only ten floors, otherwise there would be no need to do it.
It becomes a separate space that extends infinitely upward. Unfortunately, this is just a conjecture. No one can give a correct judgment on this!
All floors of the Tower of Trials are connected to each other using spiral staircases. Unfortunately, only the fifth floor is open now. As for the floors above the fifth floor, it can only be seen, but there is no road leading to the sixth floor.
Each of the first five floors of the Tower of Trials has a portal, corresponding to a trial site of a relative level. Each level of trial is a separate copy, which can accommodate millions of people to challenge at the same time.
, but to enter the trial, you must enter the portal in order.
There are also two huge portals in the lobby of the Tower of Trials. The one on the left is a large red portal. All players who fail the challenge in this Tower of Trials will come out of this portal, and on the other side of the hall
Another huge blue portal stands opposite the red portal, and those who walk out from here are all players who have successfully passed the trial.
In the short time that Ling Yun walked in, players kept coming out of the two portals. Of course, the players who came out of the red portal looked depressed, while the players who came out of the blue portal were all happy.
.
Ling Yun roughly estimated that the number of players who can come out of the blue portal now accounts for less than one-tenth of the number on the red side. It can be seen that the strength of current players is still generally low.
After checking the remaining game time, Ling Yun was surprised at first, and then frowned slightly. The remaining time was now slightly less than he expected. It should be that the time required to travel through the Forgotten Forest greatly exceeded Ling Yun's expectation.
.If Ling Yun’s plan is followed, the remaining time will not be enough for him to challenge the third level trial.
Ling Yun originally planned to challenge the level 3 trial first, to feel the true difficulty of the trial, and then calculate the level of the level 4 trial based on the difficulty of the level 3 trial, and then prepare well and try to pass it within the next game time.
, complete your own mount mission.
However, the current time does not allow Ling Yun to challenge the third level trial calmly, so Ling Yun's original plan can only be cancelled.
After thinking for a moment with his mouth tilted, Ling Yun suddenly showed a strange smile, and then stepped onto the platform leading to the first floor.
Since there is no time to challenge the level three trial, let’s try the level four trial! Ling Yun made a decision in his heart!
So when he passed the floor where the first-level trial portal was located, Ling Yun didn't stop at all and went straight to the second floor. Many players waiting in line to challenge the first-level trial saw Ling Yun's actions.
"Hey! Did you see another one who is not afraid of death?"
"Haha, people nowadays really don't know how high the world is!"
"That's right! What a waste of opportunity!"
"Damn! He got a cloak and thought it was a 'little bone'. I despise him!"
"Brother, what's going on with the cloak you mentioned?"
"Don't you know? The forums outside are in turmoil now!"
"This... brother, I haven't gone offline yet! Brother, tell me what's going on?"
"Oh~ let me tell you, how could you not know about such a big thing! Then let me tell you, it all started with a post posted by a player named Xiaojian..."
So this brother began to vividly describe the post turmoil on the Narrator Forum. Some players around him who had no information heard about it on a whim. In the end, they even stopped waiting in line and gathered around the player to listen to the player's comments about reality with relish.
in this turmoil.
In this way, in many corners of the Fantasy Continent, similar plots continue to replay, and the three words "little bones" have once again become the most talked about word among fantasy players. Under the exaggeration of some people intentionally or unintentionally, "little bones" is impressively
He has become the most talked about person among players in the Fantasy Continent, and the mystery and low-keyness of "Little Bones" have undoubtedly won the hearts of many young people. The most representative gray cloak has also been imitated by many good players!
The invisible "bone style" began to sweep across the entire dream continent!
Arriving at the second floor of the Trial Tower, there was no longer a long queue. Only a few players who seemed to be waiting for someone were standing around chatting. They were a little surprised to see Ling Yun's arrival, but then they continued to mind their own business.
While they were chatting about something, a middle-aged mage stared at Ling Yun's attire and seemed to think of something.
Ling Yun glanced at a few people casually, feeling a little surprised because each of them had a shining star-shaped badge hanging on their chest and the same gang badge on their arms. It seemed that several of them should be
They were from the same gang, and it was a pretty powerful gang. After paying a little attention, Ling Yun went straight to the stairs leading to the third floor.
Under the surprised gazes of several people, Ling Yun stepped onto the stairs to the third floor again.
Looking at Ling Yun's back, one of the middle-aged mage was puzzled and a little surprised, and then turned to the swordsman next to him and said: "Xiao Liu, follow up and have a look! Don't follow after the fourth floor.
"
The swordsman responded and followed.
"Second brother, is there something wrong with that man?" asked the middle-aged swordsman next to him.
"It's nothing, I just think that player looks like a person!" the middle-aged mage responded.
"Like a person? Who can make the second brother so interested in me? Haha," the middle-aged swordsman said with a smile.
"You haven't gone offline yet, so it's not surprising that you don't know. It's just that the player's outfit looks very much like that person, so I asked Xiao Liu to follow him to see if he'll find out if he comes back! Haha, that's it!
Big Brother is also online, let’s wait until Big Brother comes!” The middle-aged mage laughed.
After passing through the empty third floor, Ling Yun came directly to the fourth floor. The swordsman behind him also followed closely on the fourth floor in surprise.
Walking to the empty fourth-level trial portal and standing in front of it, Ling Yun carefully looked at the portal emitting blue light in front of him. After a long time, Ling Yun took a deep breath, his eyes revealed a confident light, and the corners of his mouth hung.
With a faint smile, he calmly entered the fourth-level trial portal.
Seeing Ling Yun enter the portal of the fourth level trial, the little swordsman standing at the top of the stairs stared with big eyes and a face full of surprise.
On the second floor of the Tower of Trial, a rough-looking swordsman walked up. Seeing the rough swordsman's arrival, several people who had been waiting for a long time gathered around him.
"Brother, how are you preparing? That bastard from the Overlord Gang has been clamoring for so long, and the brothers in the gang can't stand it anymore! This time, no matter what, you have to get ahead of that bastard.
Second level trial!" the middle-aged swordsman said angrily.
The rugged swordsman smiled bitterly, shook his head and replied: "Third brother, you really think highly of me! Hey~~, let's not talk about the Overlord, but his personal strength is indeed higher than that of our brothers.
, I am not sure whether I can get ahead of him and pass the second-level trial! You all have just completed the third transformation and have passed the first-level trial. I might as well tell you that the second-level trial is definitely not what you imagined.
It's so simple! If you want to guess the difficulty of the second-level trial from the difficulty of the first-level trial, I tell you that is absolutely fantastic! Otherwise, I wouldn't have failed after persisting for only ten minutes yesterday. Now you should be able to
You understand how difficult it is to pass the second level trial! Even so, I still heard good news. I heard that the Overlord lasted only a few minutes longer than me yesterday. I think as long as we work hard, there is still hope.
Better than him!"
At this time, the middle-aged mage also interjected: "Brother is right, no matter how strong the Overlord is, he is just one person and has nothing to fear! As long as we brothers work together, we will definitely defeat the Overlord's arrogance!"
"Yes! Second brother is so right! Let's all work hard together!" Several people around him echoed, with excitement on their faces!
Seeing the brothers united as one, the rugged swordsman and the middle-aged mage looked at each other and smiled, making each other very happy.
"Second brother! That man turned out to be... eldest brother! When did you arrive!" The swordsman named Xiao Liu hurriedly ran down from above, and the shock on his face turned into joy when he saw the rough swordsman.
Seeing Xiao Liu, the rugged swordsman showed a caring smile and asked: "Yes, I just arrived. By the way, where have you been? How did you run down from above?"
"Oh, my second brother asked me to follow someone up there!" Xiaoliu replied honestly.
With an expression of doubt, the rugged swordsman looked at the middle-aged mage.
The middle-aged mage smiled and did not answer. Instead, he looked at Xiao Liu and asked, "Where did that person go in the end? Tell everyone."
Thinking of what the second brother told him, Xiao Liu immediately showed a shocked expression on his face and said: "Well, I followed the second brother's instructions and followed that person. After walking to the fourth floor, I saw him standing on the fourth floor.
He stood in front of the portal of the super trial for a long time, and then he suddenly stepped into the portal and disappeared!"
Hearing Xiao Liu's words, everyone except the middle-aged mage who was still smiling was extremely surprised.
At this time, the middle-aged mage smiled and said: "Brother, you just came back from outside. You should have heard about the two posts that caused a lot of commotion on the forum!"
The rugged swordsman frowned slightly in confusion and nodded.
"The player who entered the fourth level trial just now was wearing a gray cloak! Brother, have you guessed who he is?" the middle-aged mage said mysteriously.
Hearing this, the rugged swordsman suddenly realized: "Could it be him?!"
The middle-aged mage smiled and nodded and said: "When I first saw him, I suspected that he was that person. Now I have basically confirmed that except for Purple Rose, only that person is likely to enter the fourth level trial."
The thick-lined third child asked confusedly: "Eldest brother, second brother, you have been playing riddles for a long time, who are you talking about?"
After listening to the middle-aged mage's words, everyone looked at the third child with smiles on their faces.
The middle-aged mage looked at the stairs leading to the upper floor with a smile on his face and said: "Aside from Little Bones, who is ranked second on the level list, who else can there be?"
Not long after the rugged swordsmen guessed Ling Yun's identity, a player wearing a gray cloak walked out of the giant red portal in the lobby of the Tower of Trial with a disgraced face. This person was none other than
It’s Ling Yun who just failed the fourth-level trial!
At this time, Ling Yun's face no longer had the heroic smile, but was replaced by a frown and a look of unwilling resentment.
Silent all the way, Ling Yun quietly left the crowded hall and came to the main entrance of the Tower of Trials.
At this time, the silent Ling Yun slowly exhaled a sullen breath, but when he thought of the overwhelming army of skeletons that had just rushed towards him, Ling Yun's body continued to feel cold.
Under the attack of the tidal army of skeletons, Ling Yun tried his best but could only hold on for 3 minutes before the army of skeletons was completely swallowed up.
Just like the situation in the Lost Cave, Ling Yun was surrounded by skeletons and could not use his physical skills to avoid them. Ling Yun could only be beaten passively, and in the end he could only accept the result of failure.
Whenever he was helpless like this, Ling Yun would always think of Xiao Zi and look forward to Xiao Zi's return even more.
