There is no guidance, no prompts, the lingering sound of the referee's announcement has disappeared, and many contestants are still full of confusion.
Herola said: "Situations like this have occurred in past trials. All tips and guidance will be provided in the trial venue, and participants need to dig out by themselves."
The contestants around the two men took a fighting stance, and they cautiously retreated to a safe distance, looking as if they would launch an attack at any time.
Lu Yu ignored those contestants who were inexplicably hostile to others and eager to try. He turned to Herola and said, "Since the rules have not prohibited cooperation, do you want to come with me?"
The moment Lu Yu turned his head, a vine broke out from under his feet and pointed directly at Lu Yu's throat.
"careful!"
Herola shouted loudly and quickly took out her bow and arrow. Just as she was about to provide cover for Lu Yu, she saw an elf in the distance fell to his knees with a plop, his hands covering his throat that was constantly spurting blood, and his body was shaking.
A dark shadow placed the dagger in his hand on her neck, and with a flash of light, the body and head separated.
As for the menacing vine that seemed to penetrate Lu Yu's jaw, from Herola's perspective, it seemed to have stopped at the last moment, but just now she seemed to have heard a muffled sound after the hit.
"Illusion?"
Putting aside the chaotic thoughts in her mind, the sudden attack made Herola quickly enter the state. She bent her bow and arrow, and her figure quickly disappeared into the dense trees, relying on her excellent perception to lock on every contestant around her.
"It's not a theme where you have to fight against each other to advance. Are you sure you want to stay here?" Lu Yu walked to the open space and shouted to the other contestants hiding around him in a disdainful tone, "Who else wants to try?"
Lu Yu picked up the head that had been thrown by the shadow substitute and threw it forward. The wet blood was scattered all over the floor. His unbending eyes stared at the mountains in the distance, telling his unwillingness and fear.
The breaths quickly disappeared from Herola's perception. Staring at Lu Yu's back not far away, she swallowed.
Looking at the shadow half-kneeling on the ground, Herola asked curiously: "Is this your summon?"
"It's called Yingtai, a simple and easy-to-use summoning object."
After being praised by the "Lord", the shadow trembled with excitement, and the dagger in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"You look better than all the summoners I know..."
"powerful?"
"No, it's strange."
The three of them, Mei Qiu, were all puzzled. Lu Yu didn't summon those weird things. How could it be strange?
"I have never seen a summoner so proficient in potions...and vice versa."
Lu Yu suppressed a smile and said, "That's because I have different personalities. As long as I switch personalities, I can have different powers. Isn't it amazing?"
This answer made Herola also laugh. She clapped in unison, pretended to cheer, and read: "It's really amazing."
No matter which angle you look at it, this answer is ridiculous. How could such a person exist?
"If you don't believe me, let me cut one and show it to you?"
Sierra came online and cleared her throat: "How is it?"
"You can actually imitate a girl's voice, it's so realistic, my God!"
Herola's reaction made the three people in the chat room happy. Briquettes was really mean-spirited.
There is still no clue as to where the "Puppet Messenger's Shelter" is, but the elimination among the contestants has begun. Some people are fighting monster puppets, some are fighting to the death with other contestants, and some are hiding in the dark. Always waiting to break up the fight.
Today's trial site has completely entered the suspicion chain mode. When two contestants meet, each other does not know whether the other has murderous intentions. When there is no guarantee that the other party does not have murderous intentions, they must either confront each other vigilantly and find a way to leave, or Be the first to deal with the opponent. After all, there is no threat except the dead.
But there is often more than one contestant in an area, so whether it is a confrontation or a preemptive move, it will eventually turn into a big brawl.
Lu Yu suddenly didn't believe what Herola said. The average casualty rate in past trials was less than 50%.
A giant sand spider that was supposed to live in the flaming sand collapsed to the ground after being attacked by the shadow substitute and Herola. Herola seized the time to recover the arrow cluster, while Sera went online to attack the giant spider. dismantle.
During her stay in Selkalo, she paid the puppet master and had the opportunity to observe the transformation.
The puppeteers didn't think that those profound human body modification skills could be learned through a short period of observation, but she was Sera.
For a puppeteer who has personally opened the door to spirit body-changing, body puppetization is just another branch of spirit body-changing attempts. How could this possibly frustrate her!
It only took Selah less than ten days to learn the basic transformation process. Now let her practice it. She is confident that the success rate of the first transformation is definitely better than that of the elite dolls in chain doll stores. The teacher must be high.
"Anything gained?"
"Indeed." After Sera carefully inspected the "core" of the dolls, she said firmly, "The craftsmanship of these dolls has some shadows of Vanessa, which is similar to the dolls we have seen during this time. There's a clear difference, they're obviously stronger and better to use."
"Herola, are all the trial dolls from the Puppet Masters Association?"
"No, it's the secret society, which is the hand of the more core puppet masters in the association. It is said that many of them are from the hands of top puppet masters in the past."
After recovering the arrow clusters, Herola was surprised to see Sera skillfully dismantling the dolls. She was stunned.
"You... still know about dolls?"
"No, I don't understand." Lu Yu answered honestly.
Herola choked.
"Fight when they meet eyes" did not happen to the two of them. They killed monsters along the way. Although they occasionally encountered other contestants along the way, the advantage of teaming up would always make these lone rangers escape quickly and save Lu Yu. A lot of trouble.
All the way up the mountain ridge line, Lu Lu's perception suddenly appeared something that stood motionless but continued to release magic power. Herola was only slow for a few seconds and immediately reminded Lu Yu to pay attention.
They slowly moved forward, and finally saw a female half-dragon holding a magic crystal in a bush as tall as a person.
The half-dragon's gaze always followed the two of them, as if he noticed their existence from a long distance away.
"It's a doll."
"But why is she so motionless?" Lu Yu looked at this strange doll with interest.
The puppet suddenly spoke: "Contestants of the Streaming Light Trial, please present your certificate of destiny."
There is a gap in the doll's head, about the size of which can accommodate a coin.
"What is the certificate of destiny?"
"Participating in the current special challenge of the Wheel of Destiny has a probability of dropping a 'Destiny Voucher'. With the Destiny Voucher, you can obtain random revelations through each streamer's revelation."
Herola sighed: "So, we have to get very special trophies from the crazy monster dolls that keep emerging... We have killed a lot along the way, but we have never seen the so-called 'voucher of destiny'
Ah, as expected, I am still as unlucky as ever, I'm sorry, the bad luck has infected you."
Coal Ball didn't care about the bad luck. If Jeffrey were here, he would probably comfort Herola with his belief in "conservation of luck".
Recalling what happened after the trial started, Sierra secretly thought interestingly: "It is indeed a wheel of fortune. Everything is random. The challenges that change every once in a while are random, the drops are random, and the prompts are random."
Just as he was about to go out and swipe a few monster dolls, a thought suddenly came to his mind. By some strange coincidence, Lu Yu asked, "Do you have a certificate of destiny?"
"have."
"If I attack you, will other Streamer Revelators offer their services to me?"
"Yes." The half-dragon puppet stared at Lu Yu, "But I don't recommend you do this. I am stronger than you think-"
"boom!
!
"
A group of headless horsemen jumped out of the shadows, holding spears and transforming into dump trucks. Before the half-dragon doll could finish speaking, the leader of the headless horseman used his saber to lift him into the air. The falling doll
He wanted to use magic to move, but the shadow substitute suddenly appeared and stabbed the crystal-encrusted heart with a dagger. The accumulated power immediately collapsed.
While Herola was still in a state of confusion, Sera was already skilled at dismantling the doll.
"This, this, this...is this appropriate? Aren't they guides?"
Lu Yu replied: "I know, it is a neutral unit that provides help to the trialists, but didn't it say that it can attack, and the hatred will not be shared with other neutral units."
When a neutral NPC shows you the health bar, and killing him will not affect the subsequent plot at all, and may even lead to the explosion of top-quality equipment or key props that directly lead to the subsequent plot, Lu Yu believes that this is the half-dragon doll encouraging him.
Challenge her.
We can't live up to her courage in the body of a doll. This is no longer an ordinary doll. You must respect her and give her a heavy punch!
Herola's mouth opened slightly, and she grabbed her hair, thinking that she needed to clear her thoughts. At this time, she heard Lu Yu's cheers full of surprise.
"Explode gold coins!"
Sera took out a shiny gold coin from the head of the half-dragon doll. The carousel pattern on the gold coin revealed its value. This was the certificate of destiny that could get hints.
Sera thoughtfully put the half-dragon doll's head back together, but because the connection was broken, she could only lie on the ground twitching, and even her words were intermittent.
"Didn't you say that you are always unlucky? Now you are in great shape." Lu Yu smiled and flicked the gold coin to Herola.
Stroking this gold coin that symbolized good luck, Herola looked thoughtfully at Lu Yu who was patting the Headless Horseman and accepting their worship.
Lulu noticed something, and she cast her perception to the sky.
The flying unicorn doll and the harpy doll mouthed: "The challenge of enemies in the forest is over, the challenge of enemies in the forest is over."
"The wheel of fortune is turning again."
"The challenge that is about to begin is...'Treasure from Heaven'."
Serra, who is more sensitive to time, deduced that the first challenge only lasted less than half a day. The trial started in the early morning. The sun was not yet high, and it was obviously not yet noon.
The two people who were looking for the Streaming Light Revelator continued up the mountain ridge. Perhaps it was because Lu Yu solved the first challenge and released the puppet too quickly, so it was rare that he could not sense other contestants in this area.
Herola, who jumped onto the tree and looked ahead, pointed not far away and shouted: "Lu Yu, there is a harpy doll placing something on the ground, in this direction."
When the two arrived, the harpy returned to the sky again. A wooden box about the same height as Lu Yu and as wide as his arms spread stood quietly.
The shadow substitute opened the box for Lu Yu, which was covered in purple cloth with the emblem of the Selkaro Puppet Masters Association. What came into view were the enchanted weapons protected by soft padding in the center, various bows and arrows, and in the corners.
Lu Yu also saw recovery potions and potent poisons that Lu Lu approved of.
This scene made Lu Yu suddenly have a sense of déjà vu...
"These enchanted equipment are better than what most fifth-level contestants have." Comparing the enchantments on her own weapons, Herola immediately made a judgment.
"Now those contestants who are hiding and hoping to try their luck to get through the first day may have no choice. After knowing how rich the boxes are, every drop area will be bloody."
The intensity of this trial was far greater than the past few. Perhaps due to the magic wave, too many people had completed their rank promotions. The Supreme Puppet Masters who realized that there were too many contestants this time were probably passing
This means completes the screening.
Along with the large supply box, there were some small boxes that landed on the ground, which were red magic crystals engraved with strange patterns.
"This is the special prop I told you to use when you want to quit. As long as you activate it, nearby dolls will stop attacking you. Of course, contestants can still attack you unless you get it.
The rarer 'green crystal'."
"If a trialist who wears a green crystal on his chest is attacked, the attacker will be forcibly disqualified. This can be regarded as the mercy of the Supreme Puppet Masters."
"It's really like a game."
"Game? No, no, no, this is a dangerous trial." Herola emphasized.
"This is true for those of us who enter the trial." Lu Yu pointed at the sky, "For those who arrange the trial and watch everything happening in the trial venue, this is a game."
"I hope they don't think of themselves as gods, otherwise they will be no different from Clorons."
When Lu Yu met the Flowing Light Apocalypse Doll again on the mountainside, he did not rush to put the gold coins into his head. He looked at the gold coins in his hand and fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong?" Sierra and Lulu asked in unison.
"No, it's nothing, but...I thought of something interesting."
With that said, Lu Yu fed the destiny certificate to the Apocalypse Doll.
"The contestants listen carefully and shout 'citrus' ten times from the top of the mountain here, and they will receive a high-level material that can be taken away from the venue after the trial."
It was not the sanctuary area for the Puppet Messenger that Herola wanted to know so urgently, which disappointed her greatly.
"Is it true that after good luck comes a series of bad luck?"
"boom!
!”
Herola, who was struggling just a second ago, opened her mouth wide. The Headless Horseman once again began to beat the Revelator righteously, and the bass once again exploded gold coins from it... It was the same one he fed in!
"you……"
"Are you... planning to use one gold coin until the end?" Herola reacted.
"Yeah, watch me clear the level with one coin." Lu Yu made a joke that Herola couldn't pick it up, and then added. "There shouldn't be a rule that stipulates that the destiny certificate fed into it cannot be used again, right? Let's go, let's go
Find the next Apocalypse Doll and see if it eats this gold coin."
At this time, Lu Yu had already begun to use his rich game experience to figure out what loopholes could be exploited in the trials set by the Supreme Puppet Masters. He believed that in this regard, he was more professional than everyone here.
