"Damn it, your mother. You tortured me for a long time. In the end, there is no benefit at all." Murong Xiaotian was slightly stunned. He cursed in his heart, and then quickly swam towards the surface of the water.
Of course he was scolding the person on the statue. Now think about it, the statue and the ring were themselves part of the forbidden curse of the entire incident; perhaps the moment it released powerful energy, the statue completed its mission of self-destruction. .
Of course, this is just Murong Xiaotian's guess, because he really has no better explanation.
"Boss of thieves, can you please move faster next time? Only when you torture someone to the point of death can you show your intelligence." Murong Xiaotian landed on the shore, but before he could reach Ling'er and the others, the ghost The soldiers were already shouting.
You don't need to look at their embarrassed looks, you can tell from the ghost warrior's voice that the desert island is inexplicably heating up rapidly, which is really frustrating for everyone.
"You still want a next time? I don't want a next time. I'll leave it to you to enjoy it by yourself next time." Murong Xiaotian smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand to touch his nose.
"Brother Gui, please stop calling here. I think Brother Tian has already tried his best." Ling'er felt a little aggrieved.
"Hey, grandma, this feeling of being boiled alive is really fucking uncomfortable." The ghost warrior changed the topic with some embarrassment.
In fact, how could he blame Murong Xiaotian? The importance of the thief boss in his heart was more important than his own life; he was just used to arguing with Murong Xiaotian and said it casually.
To be more precise, it was the trace of the sincere emotions in Yu Sheng's heart. Even in the most difficult moment, they never lost confidence in Murong Xiaotian.
"Hehe. This is not bad. If I put you on the fire and roast you until you are so hot that you will die, and then put you into the ice hole, then you will understand what real pain is. Life is worse than death." Murong Xiaotian smiled, waved his hand, and asked everyone to sit down and talk.
The temperature just now squeezed out a lot of water from the body. The three people and one dragon all felt as if their bodies were limp. Even if they wanted to go to the palace in the middle of the island, they still needed to regain their physical strength.
"You tried." Ling'er was so shocked by Murong Xiaotian's words that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
How did she know that Murong Xiaotian suffered far more than just these two kinds of crimes when he was in the Nine-story Exquisite Tempering Tower?
"Let's take a rest first. The things on this island may be the most powerful opponents we have ever encountered in our lives. We are safe. It's only temporary." Murong Xiaotian did not answer Ling'er's words, but took out some food. .Distribute wine and the like to everyone.
"That thief boss, the forbidden spell has been broken. Before they attack us, why don't we leave here quickly." Seeing that Murong Xiaotian was speaking very seriously, the ghost warrior also felt that things were not simple.
"Yeah." Linger nodded in agreement.
"Do you remember what I told you before?" Murong Xiaotian asked instead without answering. He calmly drank a sip of wine. Then he said: "I said before that this temperature rise is a time hourglass. This seems to be intentional. A puzzle is set. It can also be said to be a forbidden spell. Only by solving the puzzle and breaking the forbidden spell within the specified time can you see the palace and be eligible to enter the next level. "
Murong Xiaotian paused slightly when he said this, and then said: "So, this rising forbidden spell will not have much connection with the mist barrier entering and exiting. Before meeting the owner of this island, he will complete all his tasks. It’s impossible to get out before asking for it.”
"Listening to what you said, it makes sense." Once the experienced ghost warrior calmed down, his intuition immediately became sharper: "You can only enter but not exit from this desert island. And you are given a set time to complete the level. Come and see. Do you think this is a test for outsiders?"
"Then why does he test outsiders? Is it to keep those who pass the test for his own use? Or to do things for him." Ling'er speculated along the ghost warrior's train of thought.
"Task.."
The ghost warrior and Ling'er shouted at the same time.
They also thought of the words "special task skill field". Maybe the owner here is looking for someone who can pass the test to complete some task for him.
"Things are not that simple." Murong Xiaotian calmly shook his head: "What do you mean by the word skill? Besides, a person who can control the power of nature and set up forbidden spells is a task that even he can't complete. You guys Say, who else in the world can complete it?"
"Strangle..."
Murong Xiaotian's words left both Ghost Warrior and Ling'er speechless.
"Okay. Stop guessing now." Looking at the embarrassed expressions of Ghost Warrior and Ling'er, Murong Xiaotian took another sip of wine. Then he said with a smile: "Now, we can confirm the following points: This first Anyone who enters this desert island must undergo a test. Otherwise, you will never leave."
"You're so sure." The ghost warrior interjected unconvinced.
"If no one knew that we were coming in before, that would make sense. But if they don't know now, I don't think you would believe it. But why didn't any enemies come out from the palace to deal with us? Because they didn't have to. They waited. They want us to go. If we don't go, we won't even think about leaving; why do they bother so much? They can just rush over and kill us; they can come up with such a complicated forbidden spell. If it's not a test, what is it? "
"Then maybe the ancient heavenly masters left some treasures on this island and set up all these traps." Ling'er was on the side of the ghost warrior this time.
"I've thought about what you said, but there are a few things that don't make sense. First of all, people who come in can't go out. Those who have hidden treasures force you to find the treasures. And if you can't find them, you will die. The key point is that it has nothing to do with the task skill field; besides, even if it is a setting left from the ancient heaven realm, you still have to pass the level. What is the difference between this level and the test?" Murong Xiaotian He shook his head and answered.
"Okay. What you said makes sense. Then go on." The ghost warrior stopped arguing.
"Secondly, anyone who enters this skill field has only two results. Either pass or die. It can be seen from the first forbidden spell we broke. The other party will not leave anything for those who come in. There is no room. If the barrier cannot be broken, you will never have a chance to leave alive." Murong Xiaotian answered with a very serious expression.
"In other words, we have no way out." The ghost warrior's expression also became heavy.
"Yes." Murong Xiaotian answered affirmatively.
"I still don't believe it." The ghost warrior suddenly shouted. He jumped up and rushed to the shore. With a "plop", he jumped into the water and swam towards the mist.
The fog was only a few dozen meters away from the shore of the desert island. He wouldn't give up until he tried it himself.
"Hey, I really don't want to give up until we reach the Yellow River. This mysterious palace has appeared. And let us rest and drink in peace. If this can still make you leave, then it's really a ghost." Murong Xiaotian said helplessly He shook his head and took another sip of wine.
"He's wandering in like this again. Will the temperature here start to heat up again?" Ling'er said with lingering fear. Thinking about the feeling of being exposed to the sun and boiled alive, I'm still scared now.
"That won't happen. Even if there is a time limit, it will be a matter of the next level. It will not start until we arrive at the palace." Murong Xiaotian answered affirmatively.
There is another guess that Murong Xiaotian did not say, that is, the fog surrounding the island started from the moment the palace appeared. I am afraid that it is impossible to enter or leave.
Because Murong Xiaotian knows very well that from the moment he entered this desert island, he has been forced to accept a special task in this special skill field; to say he is special is not an exaggeration at all. There is no room for bargaining. You can accept it. Yes, yes. No, yes.
If you don't answer, you have only one way to leave, and that is to hang out. But if you hang out, your level will return to zero. What kind of punishment will there be? No one knows until you hang out.
Unless he dies, the palace will sink into the ground and everything here will return to its original state.
This also means the failure of his mission. This mysterious desert island will wait for the arrival of the next destined player.
After the ghost warrior came back, he didn't say anything. He grabbed a wine jar and drank all the wine in one breath. After hitting the ground with a "bump", he sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes.
Diguilong also lay on the ground and closed his eyes. Even Ling'er didn't say a word. He walked aside and lay silently on the ground.
Murong Xiaotian's eyes were a little moist. The expressions of the ghost warriors when they came back confirmed Murong Xiaotian's statement. But they didn't say a word and immediately chose their own way of rest. For what reason.
In order to quickly recover his physical strength and fight for him Murong Xiaotian with the strongest posture.
"Don't worry. Brother Gui, Ling'er, Long Laoji, as long as I still have breath, I will never let you die." Murong Xiaotian secretly thought in his heart and closed his eyes to rest.
Before setting foot on the palace, at this moment, they were safe, because his intuition told him that from the second he set foot on the island, there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark...
"Everything is ready." He opened his eyes. The first thing that jumped into his eyes was Ling'er, the ghost warrior sitting opposite him; the second was Long Laoji lying behind them.
"Yes." Ling'er answered affirmatively. Her eyes regained her confidence.
"Haha. Haven't we encountered too many things in our near-death life? There's no need to fear death." The ghost warrior's unruly arrogance came back.
"Ouch." Long Lao Ji looked up to the sky and howled, showing his fearless domineering attitude.
"Let's go." Murong Xiaotian stretched out his figure and took the lead in running towards the majestic palace in the middle of the desert island.
