After being slightly shocked by a bunch of summons from the underworld, Herola, who gradually accepted Lu Yu's incredible temperament, let go. She curiously and anxiously asked Lu Yu to let her touch the tentacles.
Completely in the lead, and with no sign of any puppets around, Lu Yu readily stretched out a tentacle.
"Sticky and cold, it's like holding a ball of cotton that is constantly deforming. It's so strange." Herola closed her eyes and held the tentacles to feel, "What race are you from?"
"Me and another personality are human, and the other one is a bunny-eared person."
"You are so good at joking."
Herola felt that she had adapted to Lu Yu's special sense of humor, while the trio could only snicker in the chat room.
"Is summoning difficult to learn?"
Lu Yu asked back: "Are you interested?"
Herola nodded slightly: "Although I have a natural affinity for magic, I really don't know much magic. After all, in Selkalo, the threshold for borrowing books is very high. If you insist on being a native, you can't even get the qualification. If you want to get
Knowledge can only be traded with other magicians, but the price is..."
"If you really want to learn, I don't mind teaching you, but the premise is that you can adapt to the summons you saw before. Many of my advanced knowledge are not in line with ordinary people's aesthetics."
"They are very strong, right?"
"They are very strong. They have been my important support since I became a summoner. They are also a special power that is almost exclusively mine. So far, only a few have been able to summon them."
Herola, a member of the strength party, showed great enthusiasm: "As long as you have strength, as long as you are strong enough, I can ignore the style!"
After speaking boldly, she glanced at Lu Yu unconfidently, her fingers hidden in her sleeves digging into her palms nervously: "Are you really willing to teach?"
"I never make promises easily."
"What do I have to give?"
Lu Yu stopped and stared at Herola: "Just believe in me."
Herola was stunned by this answer, but Lu Yu laughed loudly: "Just kidding, if you achieve success in your studies, and someone with excellent character looks up to you, they will also be as uneasy as you are today, eager to be called.
Don’t be too stingy about your knowledge, share some with him, that’s what I hope you can do.”
Lu Yu patted Herola's shoulder affectionately with his tentacles: "Let's go, let's move on. I also promised you that I will take you through the trial."
After passing through a bare woodland, the front suddenly opened up, and a figure appeared in Coal Ball's field of vision.
On the snow stained red by blood, a demon fox swung its big furry tail and concentrated on dismantling the "corpse" lying in the snow.
Remembering the rules mentioned by the Tsing Yi puppet master, Lu Yu floated forward, but the demon fox still had no reaction. It wasn't until Lu Yu lightly touched her body that the demon fox quickly stood up, still holding the "just from" in her hand.
The internal organs removed from the corpse were dripping with blood.
The demon fox was trembling all over, and she said tremblingly: "Are you the judge?"
Realizing that the plot of the puppet's mission had been triggered, Lu Yu began to think about how to answer.
"Yes, I am the judge."
The face of this demon fox doll, which was almost indistinguishable from any living thing, showed obvious joy. She held up the heart that was still beating slightly in her hand, pointed at the dolls on the ground and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, Judge,
I didn’t kill anyone, you see, they are all puppets, they are all puppets.”
Herola's scalp was numb, and the demon fox's head shook unnaturally when she spoke. Her unusual body shook more and more, and she began to jump and spin around the corpse, like a dancer on red-hot iron boots.
dancer.
"I did not kill anyone. They were all puppets. I am not guilty."
Lu Yu, who didn't find any options or an entry point, was still thinking, but Sera chose to go up.
"But you are also a doll. Do dolls also like to kill their own kind?"
The crazy dance of the demon fox suddenly stopped. She tilted her head and looked at Sera, her eyes becoming empty for a moment.
"No, I am a living demon fox."
"You are a puppet." Sierra emphasized again, "Look down at your hands."
The demon fox slowly looked down, and when her eyes touched the skin that had been torn for some time and the hands that were not dripping with blood, she suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream.
It is unbelievable that the throat of a demon fox can make a roaring sound that resembles that of a flying dragon.
"No, I am not a puppet... You are not a judge, you are a liar and a fraud!"
"So fast!" Herola only had time to be surprised in her heart before she saw the afterimages of the demon fox puppets dragged in the air.
The demon fox doll hugged Lu Yu's body and bit down hard on the head with its sharp teeth. She felt no pain and was completely unaware that her teeth had shattered at the moment of contact.
The tentacles of the briquettes penetrated the demon fox doll and easily disassembled her limbs. The demon fox doll, which was no longer able to move, was thrown to the ground by him. At this time, the doll was still emphasizing "I" in a vague and dry voice.
I'm not a doll, I'm a living person."
"The adventure [Reflection] is over, and Mr. Greenfield Bass has gained sixty points."
Lu Yu did not pay attention to the points immediately, but playfully repeated the name of "Reflection".
Serra saw a large number of birds staying in the sky for them, circling constantly, and hummed: "They are watching."
"Is this adventure arranged by them? It's interesting. What does he want to tell us?" Lu Lu also tasted it, "Reflection... whose reflection is it?"
Coal Ball feels that this trip to Selkalo is getting more and more interesting. The sixteen supreme puppet masters arranged this special trial to find the so-called qualified ones. What is the purpose?
"Puppet Messenger, what can I exchange for sixty points?"
The puppet messenger serving Lu Yu was a little bird that looked like a gull. At this time, it shook its head as if wearing a black hood and made a neutral human voice.
"Every time you open the redemption, you will pay ten points, and the three props provided are all random. Do you want to enable it?"
"Open." Lu Yu wanted to see what strange props the trial would provide.
Yiou said loudly: "[High Points Trial Guide] one hundred points, [Hysteresis Glue] ten points, [Box of Destiny] fifty points."
The High Points Guide allows trialists to find areas where they can earn points quickly.
The hysteresis glue is a pure trap. As long as you buy it, you can throw it away on the way to the top to make people sick.
As for the Box of Destiny, the puppet messenger explained it as "unknown".
"What do you think it will be?" Lulu asked.
Sierra analyzed calmly: "Now it seems that points have many uses, and the Tsing Yi puppet master said before that you must have enough points to reach the top of the mountain. In addition, some of these adventure dolls may be damaged by encounters, and
It may not be replenished in time, so the number of Qiyu dolls that provide points must be on a downward trend, so we should keep it...ah?"
"Redemption successful, redemption successful, Mr. Bass's current points are 'zero'."
Sierra said with a headache: "You didn't listen to my analysis at all!"
Lu Yu said: "Unknown, do you know how attractive it is to have a prop that says Unknown? I'm sorry, I really can't hold it back. I'm really sorry, Sera, I want this very much."
Sierra sighed weakly: "You guy..."
"Do you want to open the box of destiny immediately?"
"Open, open, open!" Lu Yu rubbed his tentacles.
"The Box of Destiny is being judged...The result of the judgment is...You have obtained [Starter's Block]. All the Geglan Field Trialists who are still in the initial stage of answering questions will lose all their points and accumulate them again."
"????"
"????"
Both Coal Ball and Herola were stunned. After confirming with the puppet messenger that it had taken effect, Sera, the rational person in charge, said hurriedly: "Let's go, find the next puppet, I want to open the box too!"
"But don't we want to save points for climbing to the top?"
"You've already opened one, and I want to open one too. I'll save up after that."
Lulu immediately followed up: "I want it too, I want it too!"
At the same time, the contestants who were repeatedly tormented by the randomly appearing supreme questions in the Gaglan Proving Ground were still concentrating on answering the questions.
The puppet messenger sounded a reminder almost at the same time: "Because a contestant triggered the [Starter's Block] effect, your points have been cleared."
The puppet masters responsible for the departure stage looked at the wailing and angry shouts below, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.
So far, not many contestants have started heading towards the top of the mountain, and it is not known who has achieved something so early, and also triggered a big gift that can disgust all contestants.
"I always feel that this trial is much more intense than in previous years. After all, under the turntable, everything depends on fate. It's no wonder that the Supreme Leader ordered the preparation of extra dolls in advance... He is indeed the Supreme Leader."
While those who have not yet set off are facing a new round of torture, Mei Qiu has completed the commission of four dolls.
"Twenty points for two basic questions and answers, fifty points for repairing a doll, and forty points for defeating a high-level monster doll... The points are undoubtedly calculated according to difficulty. In this way, that
"The box of destiny is being judged...The judgment result is...you have obtained [Silent Pilgrim]."
"The [Silent Patroller] doll is a forbidden demon doll. After it is put into the trial field, it will attack all trial participants. Please note that this includes you."
After the message was transmitted, the referee outside the Gaglan Stadium immediately set off, leading a ferocious werewolf into the mountains where the trial venue was located, and released it at the designated location.
At the same time, all puppet messengers also reported the news to their own testers.
The green-clothed puppet master's scalp was numb. [Silent Pilgrim] was a creation personally created by a secret society red-clothed puppet master. Based on werewolves, he possesses forbidden magic properties that can be said to be comparable to those of most magicians.
A natural enemy, in the training ground of a group of sixth-level magicians, it is a complete killer weapon...
Fortunately, the rules will restrict [Silent Pilgrim] from harming lives, but there is a high probability that the person who hits it will be eliminated.
"Who is spending points like crazy? Aren't you worried that you don't have points to open the door to promotion?"
"I now feel that the number of people who will be promoted to our Gelan Stadium this time will be very small. How long has it been since this started, two outrageous 'incidents' have occurred one after another. This has already surpassed that of the Wise Man, right?"
"I hope the trialists can enjoy the miracles brought by this puppet technique and yearn for it."
The Tsing Yi Puppeteer said that the trialists who were crazy about spending points were continuing to draw prizes. Lu Lu’s grand prize did not have a direct effect, which made her quite regretful, so she encouraged Saira: “Come on a big one, draw a big one!
"
Sera asked the puppet messenger: "How do the two previous draws count in the box of destiny?"
"The Box of Destiny matches the theme of the Wheel of Destiny trial. It is a product that will only appear in this trial. It contains many things and cannot be evaluated by value. I'm sorry that I can't answer your question."
"It can't be evaluated, so let me evaluate it. Mine can bring bad luck to all contestants. It should be level seven anyway. The one drawn from the road can bring bad luck to anyone who encounters a doll. It should be
It can barely be considered a seventh level."
"What's your grading standard?" Sierra said disgustedly.
"Then take one and see if it's a 'big' one."
Sierra hummed softly: "Just wait and see what the big one is coming."
"The box of destiny is being judged...The judgment result is...you have obtained [None]."
"Ah?" Sierra was stunned, "What do you mean, please explain to me clearly, what is 'nothing'?"
"The Box of Destiny is judged to be an empty box. It's a pity that you gained nothing by opening it this time."
Lu Lu and Lu Yu laughed loudly. There was no need to judge Sera now. There was no doubt that he was a "First Order", no, he was just an ordinary person without any magic power.
It was indeed big...but not the size that Sera expected.
Maybe this is also a kind of conservation, after all, Serra already has the "bigness" that many people envy.
"Okay, okay, we should continue to accumulate points. I don't know exactly how many points are needed to advance."
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, a twisted voice sounded.
"Well... I want to smoke it again, just once." Sela's hesitant words were mixed with a trace of reluctance.
"Calm analysis..."
"I don't care, you have all drawn good things, why can't I get nothing? At least let me draw something!" Sierra simply let go, gave up the so-called rationality, and persisted stubbornly like a child.
Lu Yu said: "It seems that this trial arranged by the Supreme Puppet Master perfectly grasps human nature. Even we will inevitably be tricked into it. They understand it very well."
