"No, or in other words, they encountered another thing when they were about to track it." Adela shook her head.
"Another thing?"
Quince squinted his eyes. In the dream of Wangyue Lake, he knew that the pages of the Last Truth would eventually end up in the Duke of Hell's house, so he would not be surprised if anything happened to Florence.
"What?"
"A seventh-level secret treasure." Adela revealed the answer: "It's strange. The secret of Banshi Island was almost studied by the navigators and pirates on Wangyue Lake, but it happened to be at that time that Banshi Island was unearthed.
A high-level secret treasure."
Adela chuckled: "Then the question is, if you were Florence at that time, would you continue to follow the clues in the pages of the truth, or would you fight for a high-level secret treasure that is visible and tangible?"
Everyone was lost in thought. In fact, after Adela asked this question, Quins' first thought was to give up the pages of the truth and fight for the high-level secret treasure.
It’s not that the value of the Page of Truth is inferior to that of a level 7 high-level secret treasure. On the contrary, the value of the Page of Truth as a fragment of an artifact is much higher than that of a so-called high-level secret treasure.
But it is precisely because it is too high, so high that it is unattainable, and it does not have the strength like the Duke of Hell. Whoever gets it will get a death charm instead of treasure.
Obviously, this friend of Adela has self-awareness and decisively gave up on continuing to follow the clues of the pages of truth, and instead joined the ranks of fighting for the secret treasure. If the mission fails, the credit will be deducted, but if you win a high-level secret treasure,
It cannot be described as making a lot of money.
"What kind of secret treasure is that?" Daisy asked after pondering for a moment.
"I only know that it is a stone gate. After Florence left this news, she went to the mountain. That's all the news. Don't rush to answer me if you want to go up the mountain with me. You can tell me after two days when the stone disease has completely subsided.
"After saying this, Adela ended the conversation.
Two days later, everyone who had returned to their full strength gathered again.
Adela first said: "Tell me your answers."
Eugene said cautiously: "I have a question, what's on the mountain?"
When we arrived here, even Eugene, who had the experience of entering Wangyue Lake, knew nothing about the center of Banshi Island.
Adela replied: "It's very simple, gravity. The further you go up, the greater the gravity. It is said that you need high-level strength to reach the top of the mountain, so you can rest assured that our trip will be halfway up the mountain at most. When the time comes, you
It’s impossible to go up.”
Eugene: "Then I'll go."
Eugene did not hesitate. The previous question was at best an insurance policy.
Daisy's answer was succinct: "Go."
Quins shrugged: "I don't dare to go back alone, of course with you."
Having said that, there is no need to say anything more. The five people simply packed up and set off on the road again. As for Eugene and Daisy to go it alone, it is not impossible. After all, the task is completed at this point. But don't
Forgot, the clues to find Florence are in the hands of Arad, and he is the person who is most familiar with Florence. Will Eugene and Daisy be stupid enough to leave Adela to find it on their own? I'm afraid that by the time Adela is found,
, they were still walking in circles on the mountain.
The way up the mountain was unexpectedly simple. As Adela said, the mountains in the center of this porphyry island only have gravity and low plants affected by gravity, and there are no such things as monsters.
Of course, the low plants here are only compared with the plants in the stone forest. Compared with the forests in the ordinary world, the plants and trees on the mountain are all very different.
Walking on the mountain, Adela would stop from time to time to check for something on the ground or in the trees. Quins and others immediately knew that Adela had a way to track Florence, but after several secret observations, Quins and others
They have given up the idea of stealing from their master. Adela's methods are not surprising. So from another perspective, there is only one possibility. There is a special communication code between him and Florence, which is beyond the imagination of Eugene and others.
.
As the altitude increased, Quines noticed that the gravity he was in gradually increased. This was a subtle process. Without Adela's previous narration, Quines would have checked himself at all times to notice.
To reach this situation, we need to wait until there is an obvious range of regional gravity differences.
With the physical fitness of a level 2 bloodline user, the initial increase in gravity did not have much negative impact on Quines. The surrounding trees became shorter and shorter, but the tree trunks became thicker and thicker. This change was affected by gravity at any time.
The increase is becoming more and more obvious.
At an altitude of 2,000 yards, Quins felt out of breath, and his whole body was gradually filled with lead. Each step consumed at least five times the usual amount of energy.
Quins calculated that the current gravity is at least eight times the normal gravity. For a 1st-level bloodline person, he estimated that he can survive normally for three to five days under three times the gravity. For a 2nd-level bloodline person,
No problem surviving three to five days under six times gravity
, if you switch to a wizard and rely solely on physical resistance, this data will be cut down by eight or nine tenths. After all, wizards do not rely on this to make a living, and there are cheating witchcraft such as gravity witchcraft and anti-gravity witchcraft.
, no one will have nothing to do to try this thing.
Quins, on the other hand, relied on his enhanced physical fitness as a second-level bloodline user to not reveal any flaws. Under eight times gravity, he estimated that it would be good to be able to move for half a day.
Adela looked at Quins and said, "Can you still hold on?" Adela didn't know that Quins' body had been strengthened to the level of a second-level bloodline user. She just thought that Quins had secretly used some witchcraft.
, and have persisted until now.
Quins nodded: "We can still hold on for half a day, but if we go up further, it won't necessarily be possible."
Adela looked around at everyone, and everyone's pace slowed down. After all, eight times gravity is a lot of pressure for a person with a third-level bloodline.
"Don't worry, if you hold on a little longer, it's not far off." Adela comforted her.
They continued walking for a quarter of an hour, and when the gravity reached nine times, Adela led everyone to the entrance of a cave.
Eugene hesitated: "Are they inside?"
Although some traces of fighting in front of the cave entrance already explained the problem, Eugene couldn't help but ask.
"Maybe so, you'll know once you go in and take a look." Adela said.
Everyone feels that something is wrong. If this is the end point, according to common sense, there should be some movement or something. Could it be that this cave entrance goes a long way into the mountain.
There was no answer, but the five of them were secretly alert.
The passage is very wide, and from time to time there will be traces such as sword marks and burns on the hard rocks. It is obvious that Adela did not lead the wrong way.
Another half hour passed. During this period, everyone took many detours, and even had the experience of going back and walking all over again. But other than that, there was no ambush or trap that everyone expected. Finally, everyone entered a semi-circle.
In a cave the size of a football field, the most eye-catching thing in the cave is a tall stone gate.
"Look there." Daisy exclaimed. Everyone knew that they had arrived at their destination. The strange thing was that there was not a single person in the cave.
"Be careful, there may be an ambush." Eugene already had the bow and arrow in his hand.
Needless to say, the other four people knew something was wrong with such a strange situation.
Quins' breeze scouts spread out immediately, but three seconds later, Quins looked strange, because there was really no one in the cave, and there was no mechanism to ambush them.
Since there was no danger, Quins didn't bother to warn him, so as not to expose his trump card. Ten minutes later, the five people carefully surveyed the topography of the cave. After confirming that there was no danger, they cautiously came to the two-story cave.
In front of a stone door that is as tall as a person and as wide as a person.
As they approached, everyone changed their colors. They saw a human head embedded in the middle of the top of the stone door. The hair was disheveled. Extending from the door frames on both sides were two brown arms. Further down on both sides, there were two exaggeratedly long arms.
His legs and feet were just at the base of the stone gate, deeply embedded in the cave floor. The cracks from his feet upwards had spread to the middle of the stone gate, and were about to break to his hands.
"Ah!" Daisy suddenly exclaimed.
The other four people were startled by Daisy's scream, "What's wrong?"
"I know this person." Daisy looked a little ugly.
"Do you know her?" Adela looked at Daisy and then at the head on the top of the door.
Eugene stared at Daisy and asked, "Who is he?"
"Harriet Dillon, the ace of MI3, is a man I worked with once before," Daisy replied.
