This strange copy in the belly of the magic dragon Braden is actually a very large maze with many forked roads, twists and turns, and extremely complex. ▓:▓Piaotian Literature Network▓网▓
The altar with the magic sword Levantine sealed is located in the most obvious road from the entrance. Compared with other roads, it is significantly different - it is wider, and the color of the cave wall is also obviously different. Like other roads, the cave wall was pure black, but instead black and tinged with red. The closer to the location of the magic sword, the darker the red color. By the time the altar was near, the cave wall was already a bright red like a blazing fire.
Because of this, Cheng Peng made almost no detours along the way and easily found the altar and the magic sword.
But now, he needs to go back again, enter each fork in the road, find as many of the "flames of destruction" as possible, and burst out the "dragon flame" from them.
Because when he decided to use the Demonic Dragon's Flame to unlock the Demonic Sword, the system actually prompted that 999 Demonic Dragon's Flames were needed to lift the barrier of the Sealing Altar!
Nine hundred and ninety-nine! Although this thing will definitely explode if you defeat the "Flame of Destruction", only one copy of each "Flame of Destruction" will explode!
"I was originally thinking about how to delay it for a little longer, but now it seems I don't have to worry so much..." Cheng Peng opened the automatic map, looked at the inconspicuous thin line in the darkness and sighed.
The system can help players record the maze map they pass through, and then reflect it in the overall map, just like playing a jigsaw puzzle. Every time they walk a certain distance, the fog in the corresponding area in the automatic map will disappear. This is a very considerate feature. design, but now he told Cheng Peng even more cruelly how much scope he needed to explore!
In terms of area, it is conservatively estimated that more than 90% of the place is shrouded in black fog!
But this is normal, because until now, he has collected a total of more than 80 copies of the Flame of the Dragon. Since the total required amount is there, there will definitely be at least this many in the maze, so the map will definitely be very large and needs to be played. There will definitely be a lot of monsters.
"It always feels like a waste of time..."
While Cheng Peng was muttering, he checked the automatic map and explored along the winding passages towards the far left side of the maze.
Perhaps the designers of the game did this on purpose, hoping that players would exhaust their patience during a long period of meaningless exploration and instead try to use violence to destroy the seal.
Or maybe their original intention is not to tease people, but they hope to use this very time-consuming method to implicitly remind players of something.
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
Anyway, he now needs to wait patiently for his companions to meet up, and it will take a lot of time to gather friends from all over the world.
Being idle is also idle, you have something to do, at least it won't be so boring.
With this idea in mind, he carefully explored the maze.
After about two hours, the lower left corner of the automatic map was finally fully lit. By rough estimation, one-fifth of the entire map had been explored.
Cheng Peng, on the other hand, stood in front of another altar and felt sad.
This altar is located at the bottom of an extremely long passage. The "flames of destruction" along the way are stronger than those elsewhere, making it somewhat difficult for him to fight through it.
Because of this, when he was still on the road, he was full of curiosity about what was at the end of the road.
Game designers don't make random mistakes. Since the enemies here are particularly strong, there must be something special at the end of the road!
But he really didn't expect that it would be another altar!
This altar is similar to the one with the magic sword sealed before, except that the surrounding color is black with a slight golden light, as if it is coated with coal powder mixed with gold.
In the center of the altar, there is a golden treasure box about two feet high.
Although the treasure chest was covered by a black light curtain, countless golden light still overflowed through the light curtain, reflecting a large area of the surrounding ground like a floor of gold powder. The decoration of the treasure chest itself was extremely luxurious, with various gemstones.
It is inlaid on it without any hesitation, and there are many lifelike reliefs. The carved flowers, birds, insects and fish seem to be able to jump down and move in the next moment.
Regardless of the contents of the box, this box alone can be called an exquisite handicraft!
Cheng Peng tried to reach out and touch the black light curtain covering the treasure box, and received a system prompt as expected.
[This is a treasure chest sealed by the power of the dragon. You can try to break the seal yourself, which may stimulate the dragon and wake it up from its slumber. You can also use the flame of the dragon to lift the seal, but that won't work.
What adverse consequences will there be?]
After checking the Demonic Dragon's Flame on hand, he shook his head, turned around and left.
Although the total amount of Demon Dragon Flame produced in this maze should be enough, he would not waste it until he had accumulated 999 copies of Demon Dragon Flame to release the seal of the Demon Sword.
As for the option of using violence to break the seal, he had never thought about it from the beginning.
The system reminded him again and again that he might awaken the dragon. The implication was that if he always chose a gentler method, the dragon would not wake up when he left.
If it was just Cheng Peng, it wouldn't matter whether the dragon awakened or not. He would probably not be able to defeat Loki anyway, and it wouldn't make any difference if there was another dragon. Anyway, he was just running away. But since he has already contacted him.
Friends from all over the world plan to use the system settings to set up a trap and ambush Loki, so it would be better not to wake up the magic dragon as much as possible.
Surround and kill Loki, the demon dragon and Loki. Although the latter will definitely be more rewarding, it will definitely be more difficult. If you are not careful, you may die and the net will be broken. I'm afraid you will have a busy schedule.
There is no big mistake in being careful since ancient times. This plan is not trivial. Compared with the two major events of stealing the magic sword and siege Loki, the treasure chest and the like are insignificant!
For the next whole day, Cheng Peng was like a player in an old-fashioned maze game, wandering around in the big maze inside the dragon's belly, constantly entering new passages, killing the same fire monsters, and collecting
Dragon's Flame.
This is a very boring job. If it were anyone else, they might have been unable to bear it and tried to break the seal of the magic sword directly. Or they might just use the flame of the magic dragon to open the golden treasure chest they encountered on the road first, but
Cheng Peng is a very patient person. He did not waver at all and insisted on following the plan.
By noon the next day, the entire maze was finally fully explored.
The amount of Demonic Dragon Flame harvested was exactly nine hundred and ninety-nine copies!
This means that the four treasure boxes located in the four corners of the maze cannot be unlocked with them. If you want to obtain the contents of the treasure boxes, you can only use violence to break the seal.
Sighing slightly, Cheng Peng raised the middle finger in his heart to the stingy game designers.
During this period of time, the friends he contacted have also come to this world one after another, and contacted Alice and Wilfred through Mr. Marco.
When they learned that this group of people was actually trying to ambush Loki, they were all shocked.
What kind of person is Loki? He is the biological father of Hel, the god of death, the demon wolf Fenrir and the ring-tailed snake Jormangard. He is also one of the most famous conspirators in Norse mythology. As a hybrid of a giant and a god, he has Extraordinary power - although this power manifests as madness and chaos, which usually does not make him very strong, in fact he has the potential to be powerful enough to even challenge the Lord God Odin!
Not only that, a conspirator like Loki who has deceived countless people must have hidden a lot of good stuff. When he fights with him, God knows how many hidden methods he will use...
Although the two were shocked by Cheng Peng's plan, after careful consideration, they decided to help them complete this crazy plan - anyway, it was just the action of a group of strangers, and they did not need to come forward themselves. All they had to do was to help those who came from behind. The masters gathered from all the worlds are on their way and just send them to the wilderness.
Since they don’t need to come forward, that’s no problem!
Under the guidance of the magicians sent by Alice, the Liberation Front built a teleportation array from the human world to the vicinity of the wilderness. Through this teleportation array, the strongest men from different worlds crossed the distance that would normally require a horse to fly. The long distance that took several days to be crossed quickly reached the destination.
Now, they have all gathered in a hidden place near the wilderness.
There were originally many monsters in the wilderness. Alice used magic to resurrect the monsters killed by Cheng Peng one by one, and deliberately spent some more magic to make them appear energetic, but now she had to resurrect them. Cast a spell to put all these monsters into deep sleep to prevent them from causing serious problems.
If Cheng Peng were in the wilderness now, he would be surprised to see that all the monsters here are lying on the ground and sleeping soundly like the dragons, as if they have turned into many stone sculptures.
This scene will obviously make Loki alert. As long as he learns about Cheng Peng's behavior of stealing the magic sword, he will definitely take action to stop it. It doesn't make any difference whether he is alert or not.
In short, the trap against Loki is gradually taking shape.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Peng finally got the "everything is ready" prompt from the team channel.
After resting for a long time near the altar of the sealed demon sword, he stood up, checked his equipment and status one last time, then walked to the altar and threw all the demon dragon flames into it.
Black flames danced violently on the altar, making the dark altar seem to be burning.
After a few seconds, the entire altar made a dull sound and fell into pieces. The dark red magic sword originally inserted on it also fell down and fell at Cheng Peng's feet.
Taking a deep breath, he bent down and picked up the famous magic sword.
