The terrain of the fourth-floor corridor is much more complicated than that of the fifth-floor corridor. From here, there are some branching intersections. Sometimes you will find a lot of monsters lurking inside when you reach the end, and sometimes there will be nothing.
Objects are blocked by cold walls, as if the only meaning of their appearance is to make people walk an extra useless journey.
When she reached the end of the forked road for the third time and found that there was a dead end ahead, Olvera finally couldn't help complaining: "Why does this always happen? I remember that there weren't so many forked roads in the castle, right?"
”
It turns out there isn’t one, so it was naturally designed.
The developer of the game felt a little guilty, and his voice was not so confident: "Well, I originally made it according to the normal map design. I planned to put a few treasure chests here and add a few practical props. This is not in vain.
Take a trip..."
Olivia asked: "So, where is the treasure chest?"
"No."
Alice’s words make one imagine her flailing expression at this moment: “After I designed the map, the game console reminded me that I didn’t have permission to modify the map elements, but the map was already done, so I couldn’t spend too much energy on it.
Going back to the drawing board and reinventing the wheel? So just make mistakes."
A good person will make a mistake.
Not only was Olvera speechless, but even Ringer had a new understanding of the unreliability of this golden-haired maid. After being silent for a while, he said: "Maybe you can refer to it next time when you develop a new game.
Other people’s opinions.”
"I am a genius player myself, why do I need to refer to other people's opinions?" Alice was slightly unhappy, feeling that he underestimated her own abilities: "Moreover, haven't you always insisted on living a peaceful life? When did you start to think about this kind of thing?
Are you interested? Could it be that... you have changed your mind?"
Ringer replied: "No."
"Really?"
"No need to lie to you."
"Boom!"
Alice snorted unwillingly.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Olvera suddenly remembered that Ringer once said that the reason why their group took huge risks to explore this ancient castle sealed by darkness was to find an answer.
But they never mentioned the answer to what question it was.
Is there any connection between this and the "quiet life" that Ringer said?
She was very curious, but the conversation between the two had ended and no more information was revealed. The princess thought that as an outsider, she did not seem to have the position and reason to get to the bottom of the matter. If she asked too many questions, she might cause trouble.
Their dissatisfaction silently suppressed all the doubts in their hearts.
Turn around and leave this fork in the road and continue moving forward.
Fourth floor corridor, current progress: 65%.
……
Compared with the fifth floor corridor, the distribution and density of monsters in the fourth floor corridor have been significantly improved. Basically, you will encounter a group of monsters every few minutes. In Alice's words, the fifth floor corridor is
It is a tutorial level for new players to get familiar with the game, and starting from the fourth floor corridor is the real difficulty of the game.
Frequent battles have certainly caused a lot of trouble for Olvera's progress, but they have also intensively trained her operational skills, allowing her to use the combination of swordsmanship and magic to gradually grow in continuous battles, and thus
Achieve a level of integration.
Although she is only initially used to the operation of weapon switching, and is still in the stage of deep learning for those more advanced game skills, such as calculating cooldown time and estimating advance, etc. However, Ringer's instructions are always very timely.
It can make up for her disadvantage in this area.
Perhaps because from the perspective of a bystander, his control of the battle situation and timing are often more accurate than those of the actual operators. On several occasions, Ovela performed a series of wonderful operations under his instructions.
The enemy is completely manipulated in the palm of your hand, and it doesn't look like a battle, but like dance music, which is as pleasing to the eye as it is.
As for Alice, she seemed to have little contribution other than saying "wonderful things" from the sidelines. After all, Olvera was already familiar with the operation techniques of the Holy Sword and no longer needed her guidance. However, sometimes in order to filter out those random weird words, she also
It takes a lot of extra energy.
In addition to mastering skills, another benefit of frequent battles is that monsters drop a lot of items. In addition to the cookie-cutter [Ashes of Ashes], several beads were also exploded. Three attribute orbs, namely vitality,
Magic power, defense power, and a new type of orb.
[Status Orb - Sensitivity: I feel like my body is light and airy, as if I am about to fly? I mean, man, have you secretly taken some banned items? After equipping it, you will be given the "Wind Traceless" status, and every melee attack will
Then increase your movement speed by 50%, lasting 1 second, and cooling time 5 seconds.]
A very practical bead that can provide smoother changes to Olvera's combat. It can only be triggered in melee combat, which is a small limitation, but it is just right for her who still uses the Holy Sword as her main output weapon.
.
Considering that her use of elemental magic is only used as a link between sword combos and control effects, and does not need to rely on their output, the magic value required to release magic only needs to be enough. So Olvera
At Alice's suggestion, the original attribute orb - magic power was removed and this new orb was installed.
Now the upper limit of her magic value is 500, which is still a lot.
After loading the new orb, Ovela continued to move forward, bypassing three forked roads, and eliminated several waves of monsters. Finally, at an intersection, she ran into an elite monster patrolling back and forth.
Different from the harvest shadow in the corridor on the fifth floor, the elite monster in front of me is a simple and thick armor. It has been rusted by years of wind and rain. The surface is dark like the dead black tide at night. When it is attached to it,
Perhaps you can still hear the tide surging in that chest. A covered eagle helmet, a lion's head shoulder armor, hand and foot armor with sharp barbs, a broken and dirty cloak... It is holding a pistol in one hand.
The giant sword, which is still tall enough to be used as a door panel, patrols back and forth at the junction of the two intersections. When his feet step on the cold and hard stone floor, the rumble sound is like a chariot running over it, mixed with the blades of armor.
A low sound made by rubbing against each other.
Under the visor that completely covers the face, the eyes are also scarlet, but they are not actually eyes, but two deep will-o'-the-wisps, shining with evil colors like the enchanting stars in the universe.
[Shadow of Cruelty (Elite Level): hp 2000/2000. It is said that it was the armor worn by the strongest during his lifetime. After his death, his unwilling will still remains, driving this armor to pursue eternal battles. Even after death, some memories still remain.
, Therefore, in close combat, you can often rely on your advanced combat skills and rich combat experience to completely overwhelm your enemies. But at the same time, you have inherited the stubbornness of your life, and you only want to defeat your enemies in an upright way, depending on your swordsmanship.
Powers outside the realm are evil ways, and this slight may cause them to suffer setbacks. As the guardian of the powerful person who occupies the dominant position among the shadow beasts, he guards the road leading to the rulers, and is responsible for anyone who wants to break into it.
Enemies will be destroyed. There is no weak point damage type, the weak point attributes are water, fire, thunder and wind, and there is no shield coverage.]
The elite monster appears again.
It seemed to be stronger than the Harvest Shadow on the fifth floor. Olvera held her breath, and Alice comforted her: "It doesn't matter, we have even defeated the boss, it's just an elite monster, it's nothing.
”
Ringer also said: "Its weaknesses have been clearly stated. It can only use swordsmanship to crush enemies at close range, but it has no measures to defend against magic. Moreover, among the five elemental magics, except for the wind attribute, all
It’s its weak point. So——”
He paused and then said: "Although I originally wanted to wait until you are more proficient to teach you, I just want to take this opportunity to let you adapt to the core mechanism of the Holy Scripture in advance."
