After recharging their energy, everyone set off again.
Use the key to open the door, and you will come to the second floor corridor of the castle. Except for the area illuminated by the lantern, it is still dark, but it seems different.
"It's so quiet."
Olvera said softly. The silent environment around her made her lower her voice involuntarily: "There are no shadow beasts in the corridor. Have they all moved their troops to the gate?"
After all, it is already the second floor corridor, and you can leave the castle by going one floor further down. If the person who secretly imposed the curse does not want to see her escape from the darkness so smoothly, then it is conceivable to use various methods to obstruct her. When Alice heard this sentence, she was really afraid that she would follow it with something unlucky like "Everyone is working hard, and I am also a knight who works harder." She quickly grabbed the conversation and said, "Don't worry, it might be a trap. Anyway, let's go first
Come and take a look?"
This doesn't sound like comfort, and you know it's a trap but you still want to go there just to watch the fun? Her words made everyone speechless, but there was no better way at the moment, so Olvera nodded.
, raised his guard, held the holy sword in hand, and cautiously explored forward.
After walking for less than half a minute, there is no road ahead.
To be precise, the road was cut off. The ancient dust-covered stone bricks seemed to have been swallowed up by the huge mouth of a beast lurking underground. They all disappeared, leaving only a blank abyss, like an insurmountable chasm.
It blocks the way forward for travelers. Its depth is unpredictable and contains the deepest darkness. Even people's sight can be easily cut off. If you accidentally fall into it, you may be immediately assimilated by it and become a crawling creature.
Shadow.
The strange thing is that in the sky above this abyss, there are stone platforms suspended at regular intervals. The area is neither wide nor narrow, just enough for one person to stand on it. The suspended positions are also high and low, and they are well-proportioned. p>
Looking around, whether it is this dangerous abyss or these suspended stone platforms, they all seem to be telling everyone one thing——
"It means," Oveira frowned slightly: "If you want to pass here, do you have to jump over these rocks?"
Ringer replied: "It seems so."
Others also wanted to express their opinions, but were interrupted by Alice before they could speak: "Ah, I remembered it!"
Her tone of voice, as if she had just woken up from a dream, successfully attracted everyone's attention. The little fairy Xie Mi said angrily: "What did you remember again? Why do I feel like you haven't remembered anything?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Regarding the issue of "My genius player cannot be a tsundere and amnesiac", the golden retriever maid and the fairy maid had a friendly exchange of words due to their different opinions. It was not until Merdine, who couldn't stand it, stood up to mediate that they finally stopped. It can be seen from this that
Even in another world, internal strife in the maid industry is very serious.
Fortunately, the internal fighting was limited to verbal exchanges, barely staying above the moral level, and did not cause a decline in the spiritual civilization of the other world.
Under the friendly supervision of Metien, Alice, who had temporarily signed a verbal peace agreement with the goblins, finally remembered to explain to everyone the specific situation of the corridor on this floor.
"It's actually very simple." She said in a deliberately deep tone: "This is a jumping level."
"Jumping music?"
Three simple words, but they aroused endless doubts in everyone.
"Yes, I believe you have already seen that there are no enemies on this floor, but if you want to reach the end of the corridor, you must pass through various obstacles, such as the abyss in front of you that can only be jumped through. Except for
In addition, there are other types of traps, but I don’t know what the specific traps are!"
"..."
Everyone was silent for a while, and then Ringer expressed their common thoughts: "I'm sorry you can say this so confidently."
"If you don't know, you just don't know." Alice's tone was also aggrieved: "Although I designed the map, the specific enemies and mechanisms were all generated by the game console itself. Otherwise, I would have
Just tell Olvera the boss’s mechanism directly. Doesn’t she still need to rely on memory kills every time to explode?”
The topic suddenly turned to herself. The princess, who had already had her memory read three times, was ashamed, annoyed and unable to refute. She quickly brought everyone's attention back to the main thing before the topic continued to change: "Well, those things are
Don’t mention it, in short, this corridor can be passed without fighting, right?"
Alice said: "That's right, but don't think too simply. In fact, if you don't operate it properly, these jumping music can be more torturous than the boss - and you don't even have a chance to come back.
”
Once you fall into the abyss, your game is over.
Olvera looked at the floating stone platforms on the bottomless abyss. After visually checking their height and distance between each other, she nodded with deep sympathy and said, "I don't think I can jump that high.
You can't jump that far."
Even if you use the second stage jump, there is still a big gap between the distance to the nearest stone platform.
What method can be used to shorten this gap? Holy sword? Holy scripture? Or holy lock?
"Of course it's with the Holy Staff!" Alice greeted: "Come on, Medien, explain to her how to use this weapon. If I remember correctly, it should be very suitable for dealing with this kind of jumping music.
The mechanism is right."
Holy staff?
After hearing this, Olvera immediately switched the Holy Sword Broken Steel in her hand to the Holy Staff-Star Key. The top of this half-human-high pink staff is a golden ring, and the ring is inlaid with star-shaped ornaments. The entire
The style looks completely different from other weapons, and it even makes people feel that it should be a toy in the hands of a little girl, and Metien happens to be a little girl.
"Yeah!" The pink-haired little girl's voice sounded at the right time: "Sister Ovela, let me teach you."
Olivia nodded seriously. She did not underestimate the power of the holy staff because of its appearance. Facts have proved that any heroic weapon has extremely powerful power. It only depends on the user's operation skills. I believe that the holy staff - Star
The same is true for Shi: "Please, Meidian."
"Actually, the method of use is very simple." Metien said: "First, what you have to do is to make the star on the top of the holy staff shine. Just think about it and make it shine."
Ovela followed suit, and as expected, the stars on the top of the holy staff emitted bright and soft starlight. Every tiny star crumb floated around the magic circle, just like the stars in the universe orbiting a fixed trajectory.
Like, thin stardust forms a complex and vast beautiful nebula.
"Then what?" the princess asked.
"Then, imagine that these starlights are something you need, and release them."
"..."
How should I put it? This step seemed a bit abstract, so that the princess's head didn't react for a while, and she subconsciously asked: "What?"
"Alas." Metien sighed in his mind: "I knew it would be like this."
Olvera suddenly felt very ashamed: "I'm sorry, my understanding ability is too poor..."
"There is no such thing."
The pink-haired little girl comforted her thoughtfully: "The Holy Wand is indeed difficult to use. If you want to blame it, just blame Sister Alice. After all, she designed the game like this."
"Okay." Oveira accepted her suggestion calmly.
Alice, who was watching but innocently being shot, looked confused. If you could see her expression at this time, it would definitely look like this: "?"
