When Lily woke up, as if by magic, she untied the ropes that bound her in just an instant.
This is the realm of her mysterious skill "Thread Control".
Because [Binding] is also one of the many secrets of spider silk. Threads and ropes are as controllable and reliable to Lily as extensions of limbs, and will not cause any interference to her.
This body is much stronger than her own body, so the heartbeat becomes much stronger.
In the pure darkness, she entered stealth silently. Lily stood in the corner of the room and closed one eye slightly.
While she was distracted looking at the task requirements that emerged in front of her eyes, she used her other closed eye to sense the surrounding environment.
——In her perception, the world around her turned into black and white.
With each beat of Lily's heart, clear white outlines appeared in the dark world she perceived, and then they gradually faded, becoming clearer after the next heartbeat.
But not far away from her, there were two humanoid silhouettes that faded much slower.
In Lily's [Spider Silk Sense] field of vision, a large number of threads seemed to burst out from the position of their hearts. The weak vibrations of the heartbeats were reflected on the ground, forming a network like a spider web. In just a few breaths, the outline of the human figure appeared
The outline is very clear.
After they woke up and realized their situation, their heartbeats suddenly became much faster. The most intuitive feeling was that the spider webs rhythmically mapped on the ground became larger and the frequency became faster.
"anyone there?"
One of them couldn't help shouting: "Help me!"
The other person's heartbeat suddenly slowed down.
The faint amber light on his body flashed away, and the rope that bound him was partially petrified and lost its elasticity. He broke free from the rope with force and shouted: "I'm here to help you - you are
who?"
"I am the king...who are you?"
"I am Antlers."
The man who used petrification to untie himself replied: "There should be another person in the room...can you tell us your name?"
Lily coughed slightly to indicate that she heard her.
"It turns out he is the gentleman who is adapted to the road."
Antlers reacted immediately.
This is not good. Lujiaoxin said after reading the requirements for this ritual mission.
None of the allies he had roped in before appeared beside him. Instead, this taciturn adaptor and the botanist with little fighting ability appeared with him.
The profession of botanist is not quite the same as that of an alchemist in the traditional sense.
Although alchemists are not good at fighting, they can at least provide various mixtures... But the abilities of botanists are to catalyze, demonize and control various plants. High-level botanists can also awaken huge ancient trees and use them to
It transforms into a powerful tree man.
If it is a forest environment, the "King's" combat effectiveness will be very powerful. But in this closed environment, the botanist is basically useless.
And since they appear in the same place, this is basically a relationship of temporary teammates.
The most important thing is...since the king appears here, it means that the most powerful "Aleister" will appear elsewhere.
Although the combat power of the demon parasitized by the shadow demon is definitely not the same as that of the shadow demon... But even if he only gets one-tenth of the power from the shadow demon, others cannot resist him in this ritual.
——This is really bad.
Obtaining the holy spear will be locked by others, and it is more difficult for him, a low-level transcendent on the twilight path, to kill and win.
Antlers judged that Aleister should choose to kill and win after seeing the requirements of this mission. This also means that he can obtain a large number of corpses - there is no conflict between them.
His tasks in this ceremony are not difficult to complete, including "putting the corpse into the magic cauldron and resurrecting it." Each corpse has 800 points. And if he can resurrect himself and survive until the end of the ceremony, he can get it
1500 points.
In addition, he also has the task of "closing the door"...use petrification to petrify the keyholes of some doors, and you can get 500 points for each door. At this height, he can petrify but cannot unpetrify, which means
Each time the door is closed, the activity space of all ritual participants will be reduced.
But this may not necessarily be a killing method - after making a sound to attract the giants, you can take the opportunity to close the door to seal them out. The door sealed in advance can also be used as a trap.
If he has the opportunity to come into contact with the holy spear, he can also petrify the holy spear to seal the power of the holy spear. So that the person holding the holy spear cannot use the power of the holy spear to fight against the giant... In this way, he can get 1000 points. If he holds the holy spear
If the person holding the gun dies, he can get another 500 points.
After doing this calculation, he has a guaranteed minimum of 5,000 points. It is very easy to win with points.
Now Lujiao is already a senior transcendent.
He knows one thing very well: the task itself is a reminder.
——Considering this task, the resurrection of the magic cauldron should only be resurrected once. And it can be used by anyone, not just giants. The fact that the task of escaping the house gives so many points shows that it must be very difficult and extremely troublesome.
Considering the one-hour time limit, maybe there is not enough time. If his temporary teammates were more reliable, he could think about it, but now all he can do is restrict others and prevent them from escaping.
And this is also very simple.
All he had to do was find and seal the door - ensuring that others could not escape, so that they would not get the two thousand points and overtake him.
In order to achieve this condition...
Seeing that the deer's antlers had not untied themselves, the king gradually understood.
After a brief thought, he suddenly spoke and broke the deadlock: "Then you kill me."
The king's words made the other two people look at him.
Lujiao asked with concern: "Is this okay?"
Hypocritical. Lily on the side scoffed.
The king was very open-minded: "To be honest, I have no plans to be promoted.
"If it happens to be a ceremony in a forest environment, I might be able to give it a try. But in this environment, I think it's better to just give up. This ceremony is a new moon ceremony, and it's impossible for me to be promoted without enough strength.
"You happen to be my big client - so I want to give you my chance."
——What he said was sincere. Antlers’ rich experience immediately determined the king’s true attitude.
When someone voluntarily quit, Lujiao breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, the deadlock could be broken.
Instead, Antlers squatted down, groping forward, and then removed the rope from the king's body so that he could sit up in a more comfortable position.
Then, Lujiao asked: "If you don't plan to be promoted, why do you want to participate in the promotion ceremony?"
"I'm here to sell goods, but business hasn't been very good recently."
The king sat up and said very calmly: "Anyway, no one will die in the promotion ceremony at this stage. At most, they will be weak for half a month. And the people who will participate in the ceremony are all extraordinary people near me, and they are all only at the first level.
...I also didn’t expect that I would be dragged to Avalon these two times recently.
"It can only be said that Xing Antimony has been in too much chaos recently and has not been able to gather a group of promotees."
"What happened to Xing Antimony recently?" Lujiao asked with concern.
"The Rosicrucian Society and the Royal Alchemy Association were at loggerheads. The necromancers did not mediate this time, but instead watched the fun. As a result, the matter became more and more serious. A very famous alchemist was cursed to death two months ago.
.Now the demonologists are being attacked by the newspapers, but there is no movement at Rosicrucian."
The king sighed and complained: "I don't know why, but the price of finished alchemical mixture has increased significantly recently, while the price of materials has dropped. It feels like there is going to be a war. This is why I came to sell goods in the promotion ceremony.
"The several alchemy workshops that bought materials from me before kept asking me for discounts, otherwise they would refuse to buy from me. How can I tolerate them - I am not the kind of low-quality materials mixed with water, every tube
There are enough essential oils!
"...But they seem to have made an appointment. The result is that all the workshops will not purchase goods from me, and will have to reduce the price to 70% of the purchase price - let me be honest, Mr. Antlers. The 30% discount I gave you is the same as before
Give them the wholesale price. He wants me to give it a 30% discount, so I really can’t make any money. I don’t want to be the coolie of those alchemists.”
The king shook his head: "It might be better if I could be promoted to the third level a few years ago. The botanists at the third level can also perform alchemy, and I can sell the finished products myself. But I was busy in the past few years.
Make money... Incense, essential oils, perfumes, seeds, make money for several years.
"Forget it now. I'm getting older, and I still have a wife and daughter to support... I no longer have the energy to study alchemy again. It's better to go to the promotion ceremony to sell some goods."
When he said this, he took Antler's hand and said sincerely: "I will give you this promotion opportunity. No matter how many kills you have, you can use my body as you like... You must remember our order."
!”
"Do not worry."
Lujiao nodded, exuding a majestic temperament: "I am also a big shot in Avalon, and I will not default on my debt. When I get back, I will send a deposit to your address immediately - the deposit is one-half, you
You can make it after receiving the payment, and then split it into two batches. This way you will definitely not suffer a loss...how about it?"
