Li Xiu looked at the information Chu Jun brought over and found that the situation was even worse than the legend said.
In addition to the first thousand-person training, the Lord of Hongsha City actually organized several trials at the Gate of Purgatory. As a result, even though he already knew some information, the entire army was wiped out, and not a single person came out alive.
The information we know now is provided by the only person who survived.
The trial at the Gate of Purgatory was very strange. Although thousands of people entered, the person who came out alive said that he only saw himself in a room without anyone else.
It was a white room with nothing in it, only a light screen indicating the start of the S-level trial, and then the light screen disappeared, leaving him alone in the room.
The rules of the trial are also very simple, just stay in the room and wait for the trial to end.
He didn't know how long he had been in the room, because he didn't have anything to calculate time, so he had no idea how long time had passed.
Just like the rumors from the outside world, the man seemed to have a mental problem after he came out. He spoke incoherently and as if he was in a daze. The above information was compiled by doctors from his incoherent words.
The man said it was two or three days at one time, several months at another, and several years at another. Even more exaggeratedly, he had been in the room for hundreds of years.
These were all regarded as his nonsense. After all, only three days had passed from the time he entered to the time he came out.
The psychiatrist judged that it might be because he did not have a timing tool, which caused him to have an illusion.
There is also a speculation that there is something in that room that affects the mind. It may be some kind of gas, or it may be some kind of mental hypnosis. Anyway, there cannot be nothing in that room. There must be something.
something exists.
In the next few trials, the Lord of Hongsha City specially found some people who were resistant to drugs or mental hypnosis to enter, but the results were not ideal, and still no one could come out.
"What do you think?" Chu Jun asked after Li Xiu finished reading the information.
"There are many miraculous things happening in the training ground. No one can say for sure without personal experience." Li Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Since someone can come out alive, it means there must be a way to pass."
"I think so too, but with this little information, if you really want to go in, the possibility of coming out alive is not high. Do you want to give it a try? If you want to try, I have already contacted them over there. You have three
Within three days after you enter, the batch of magic equipment will not be delivered to Hongsha City. If you have not come out after three days, then you can only complete the transaction as agreed." Chu Jun did not dare to replace Li Xiu.
make a decision.
After all, it was a trial that only one of thousands of people could survive. Chu Jun himself did not dare to go in. Only Li Xiu himself was qualified to decide whether to go or not.
"How is the physical condition of the person who came out alive?" Li Xiu thought for a while and asked.
"The average person is not a real trialer, and there is nothing special about him. I don't know why he can come out alive." Chu Jun replied.
"Can I see him before the trial?" Li Xiu asked.
"There should be no problem, I'll make arrangements." Chu Jun said.
"Okay, let's make a decision after meeting that person." Li Xiu still decided to take a look.
Since physical fitness is not the key to survival, Li Xiu thought he could give it a try.
But whether he should give it a try or not can only be decided after he meets the person.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away and let you know if I have any news." Chu Jun thought for a while and said, "Actually, I don't quite understand why you want to go to such a training ground. It's too dangerous."
"I just wanted to see what kind of contract there would be in such a training ground." Li Xiu said with a smile.
Li Xiu originally planned to go to the Haitian Trial Field after finishing arranging the things at hand.
Now that I have the opportunity to go to the Gate of Purgatory, I can only let go of the Haitian Trial Field first.
In the next few days, apart from occasionally giving Ye Xiyuan pointers, Li Xiu entered the Brave Trial Field every day and constantly selected attribute rewards.
At the beginning, it was just a low-level attribute reward. Li Xiu could no longer feel any reaction from his body, and his physical fitness did not continue to increase. Later, after reaching the B-level attribute reward, he still felt nothing, indicating that his body strengthening had reached its limit. He must
Only after you become a true trialer can you continue to strengthen.
A few days later, Chu Jun brought good news. It had been negotiated over there. Li Xiu could go to the Purgatory Gate trial, and he could also meet the person who came out of the Purgatory Gate alive.
Chu Jun asked Li Xiu to pack his things, and they would set off to Hongsha City tomorrow.
Li Xiu had nothing to do, he just needed to bring the Ghost Faced Devil's costume to prevent the Lord of Hongsha City from turning his back and denying his credit.
Before going, Li Xiu planned to go to Gemstone Street again to see if he could find another demon gem.
There are more people on Gemstone Street than when Li Xiu came last time. Many gem shops have reopened, but the signs seem to have been changed, and most of the old shops have disappeared.
Li Xiu slowly looked at one store after another. Unfortunately, he looked at many gems and couldn't find the one that made him feel hungry.
Li Xiu was not disappointed either. After all, Demonic Spirit Gems are hard to come by, and may be more difficult to obtain than Demonic Spirit Rings.
Li Xiu walked into a gem shop again and saw the boss sitting at the counter looking at his mobile phone, so he just started reading in front of the counter.
Mu Yu has been in Chongshan City for several days, but has never found a chance to enter the city lord's palace to approach Li Xiu. Hearing that Li Xiu has a hobby of visiting gem shops, he opened a store in Chongshan City and planned to wait and see.
When Li Xiu entered the store, Mu Yu already knew who he was.
But he was not impatient at all. Taking the opportunity to look at Li Xiu, he discovered that he did not carry a magic weapon.
But for him, it doesn't matter even if Li Xiu is carrying a magic outfit, he will not give Li Xiu a chance to use the magic outfit.
When Li Xiu looked at the counters one by one and was about to walk in front of him, a dagger appeared out of thin air in Mu Yu's palm and wiped Li Xiu's neck.
His shot was so fast that it was almost invisible. The dagger flashed with a strange green light, like a flash of green cold lightning.
Mu Yu was very sure that even a D-level trialist like him would not be able to dodge this knife, not to mention that the opponent was just a magic costume master without magic costume.
Not to mention that the opponent was unprepared, even if he was, he couldn't dodge from such a close distance. His sword was not only fast, but the Mu Zhimin dagger was highly poisonous, and you would die if you touched it.
There is no need to slit the throat, just a small wound is enough to kill.
This is his symbiosis contract, coupled with the S-level flash skill, he once assassinated a C-level trialist, and the trialist could only watch as Mu Zhisen slit his throat.
Li Xiu saw a flash of green cold lightning and realized the danger, but his body had no time to react. He didn't even have time to retreat. It was too fast. Li Xiu only had time to lower his head slightly.
This time he lowered his head, the position marked by Mu Zhisen was not his neck, but his forehead.
This doesn't matter to Mu Yu. If he scratches his forehead, he will die just the same.
Just when Mu Yu thought he had succeeded, he suddenly saw Li Xiu lowering his head, and a black light shot out of the hole in his left eye.
when!
The green cold electricity formed by Mu Zhisen was hit by the black light, and Mu Yu felt that the palm of his hand holding Mu Zhisen was numb from the shock.
Holding the handle of the knife tightly, Mu Yu stood up, and Mu Zhisen slashed towards Li Xiu's chest again, incredibly fast.
when!
Li Xiu had a red thin sword in his hand, which actually blocked the path that Mu Zhimin must pass through.
The dagger and the thin sword clashed, and the Fire Lotus Sword in Li Xiu's hand flew out. The huge force made Li Xiu take several steps back uncontrollably. The hand holding the sword kept shaking, and he felt that he could no longer use it.
Strong.
Muyu came out of the counter like a ghost, and the wood in his hand turned into cold electricity again and stabbed Li Xiu's heart.
He didn't expect that Li Xiu was actually a trialist with a bond, but that didn't matter. Li Xiu had lost his center of gravity and could no longer block the stab.
when!
A knife with strong red fluorescence blocked Mu Yu's dagger, and a warrior demon spirit wrapped in dark red armor stood in front of Li Xiu.
"Demon spirit..." Mu Yu was startled and quickly flew back. But as soon as he took a step back, he saw the samurai sword in the hand of the demon spirit warrior slashing at him with strong blood-red fluorescence.
Mu Yu raised his sword to block it, but he saw a sword light that looked like a blood moon coming out of the samurai sword.
"Innate skills!" Mu Yu was horrified, but there was no room for retreat.
Mu Zhisen collided with the bloody crescent blade and was directly cut off by the bloody crescent blade, including one of his arms.
Mu Yu endured the pain, and the skill mark appeared on the fingers of his other hand. He jumped up and hit the roof like a cannonball, trying to escape.
Peng!
Mu Yu heard a gunshot, and then felt a pain in the crook of his leg. When he landed on the ground, his leg couldn't use any force, and he fell down again from the big hole he opened.
A transparent blue sword was placed on his neck.
"Glorious Demonic Spirit!" Mu Yu saw the owner of the transparent blue sword clearly and suddenly shouted in horror.
Pumbaa!
The demigod fired two shots at that moment, breaking the bones of Mu Yu's other leg and arm, and then Li Xiu took them back.
Looking at Mu Yu who had lost the ability to move, Li Xiu stood behind the Jedi Knight and asked with a smile: "What's your name?"
Mu Yu never expected that a magic costume master would not only be a trialist who already had the contract, but also possess a radiant demon spirit.
"If you want to kill, just kill, don't talk nonsense." Mu Yu's hands and legs were disabled, and he couldn't even commit suicide.
"I don't like killing people." Li Xiu took out his phone and called the bandit. After a while, the bandit drove over and took Mu Yu back to the city lord's mansion.
Mu Yu was locked in a cell, and the wounds on his body had been temporarily treated to ensure that he would not die of excessive bleeding in a short period of time.
Li Xiu looked at Mu Yu in the cell and said indifferently: "It was the wife of the Lord of Hongsha City who asked you to kill me, right?"
"Don't waste your efforts. If you want to torture me, just do it quickly." Mu Yu said while lying on the ground with his eyes closed.
"Do you have a family?" Li Xiu asked with a smile.
"My family are all in Hongsha City. You can try to catch them and threaten me. If you have the ability to catch them, I will tell you whatever you want to know." Mu Yu said with a sneer.
"I heard that the Lord of Hongsha City is a violent and extremely suspicious person. You said that if I heal your injuries and then let you go politely, what do you think the Lord of Hongsha City will think?" Li Xiu
He said calmly.
Mu Yu's expression suddenly changed: "You can try it, maybe it will work."
"Okay, let's do it like this. Bandit, I'll hand him over to you, heal his injuries, and then send him back to Hongsha City." After Li Xiu finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Your Taoism is still too shallow. My arm is already useless. How could the city lord accept your instigation?" Mu Yu said through gritted teeth.
"Then I don't know. Anyway, you are just a tool. I don't care about your life or death. If the Lord of Hongsha City really trusts you, then congratulations on saving your life. But you'd better pray to Hongsha City.
The Lord will not think that your broken arm is a trick, I think he still has some capacity, right?" Li Xiu said.
"I can commit suicide." Mu Yu gritted his teeth and said.
"Well, that's another story. The person who assassinated me survived, but he didn't return to Hongsha City. He was still reused in Chongshan City. The Lord of Hongsha City wouldn't believe such a script, right?" Li
Xiu said, turned around and left the cell.
"Wait a minute." Mu Yu suddenly struggled to climb to the iron fence of Minghui, stared at Li Xiu and said, "If I tell you, can you guarantee the safety of my family?"
"No, I can only guarantee that you will be a dead person in this world from now on. As a person who died trying to assassinate me, whether there is a chance to rescue your relatives in the future depends on whether you are worth my risk.
, think about it carefully." After Li Xiu said that, he left directly.
The bandit called the doctor and began to treat Mu Yu.
Mu Yu remained silent for a long time. It was not until the doctor left and the bandit was about to leave that Mu Yu suddenly said, "Can I trust him?"
"You should ask yourself, do you believe in the Lord of Hongsha City? Is it that important to believe in him?" Bandit said.
Mu Yu was slightly startled, then smiled miserably after a moment and said: "Yes, if the Lord of the City is trustworthy, why would I do this? What do you want to know?"
Mu Yu knew very well that he was the personal bodyguard of Hongsha City Lord, and knowingly or unintentionally, he would know some things about Hongsha City Lord.
If something goes wrong with him, with the character of Hongsha City Lord, he will never let his family go.
"Didn't he just say that you will get the kind of treatment you deserve based on your value?" A bandit said calmly.
While Li Xiu was packing his things, Bandit came over and said, "There is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"I want to hear the good news first." Li Xiu stopped, sat on the bed and looked at the bandit and said.
"The good news is that I learned something about the Gate of Purgatory from Mu Yu, the tester who assassinated you, which may be helpful to you during your trip." Bandit said.
"Where's the bad news?" Li Xiu asked again.
"The bad news is that I learned something about the Gate of Purgatory from Mu Yu, which may be very detrimental to you." A bandit replied.
"Isn't this just news?" Li Xiu was speechless.
"Well, you can say that." A bandit nodded seriously.
According to Mu Yu's explanation, the information about the Gate of Purgatory given by the Lord of Hongsha City was basically correct, but there were some slight deviations.
In fact, the Lord of Hongsha City later conducted a large-scale experiment and found more people to enter the Gate of Purgatory.
More than 2,000 people in a deep mountain village were secretly captured by the Lord of Hongsha City, and all of them, men, women, old and young, were sent to the gate of purgatory.
That time, another person finally came out alive, and he was a child with cerebral palsy and very low intelligence, less than ten years old.
"The Lord of Hongsha City is really ruthless and won't even let a child like this go." Li Xiu sighed.
"In his opinion, such children are the most worthless and the ones who deserve to die the most," the bandit said indifferently.
"Then what? Are they sure that the Gate of Purgatory affected the brains of those who tried it and caused their mental problems?" Li Xiu said.
"No, they came to another conclusion. Maybe those who entered the gate of purgatory really lived there for hundreds of years." The bandit gave a shocking answer.
"Why is there such a conclusion?" Li Xiu asked puzzledly.
"The disease that the child has will become more and more serious as time goes by, but the process is very slow. When he went in, he was still able to move like a normal person, but his intelligence was relatively low and his eyes were crooked.
His mouth is tilted, and his language function has been affected to some extent. If it is normal, it may take several years, ten years or even decades before his body functions will be affected, and he will gradually lose the ability to control his body, and become increasingly
serious."
"The child only went in for three days, and when he came out, he was almost completely paralyzed. After research by some experts in Hongsha City, his brain was not affected by external factors, but was naturally diseased to this extent. So they
It can be inferred that it is possible that when they were inside, the time for their brains to recognize it might have been decades or even hundreds of years."
"How long does it take for the brain to recognize?" Li Xiu didn't quite understand the bandit's description.
"In other words, their bodies may only have passed three days, but their brains feel that decades or hundreds of years have passed. If a person is trapped in a room with nothing for decades or hundreds of years, everyone will go crazy.
." said the bandit.
"But going crazy doesn't mean you will die. Why did only two people survive?" Li Xiu still had some doubts.
"Then I don't know. Mu Yu only knows so much, so I think it should be trustworthy." A bandit said.
"Then let's wait until I see the person who survived before deciding." Li Xiu became more and more interested in the Gate of Purgatory.
