After drinking for three rounds, Zhou Bailong said with a smile: "Brother, I have seen a lot of testers, and I have also seen a lot of real testers, and there are such people around me. But someone who can be like you
, not one, your skills can’t just rely on the skills of a trialist, right?”
"Skills are only part of it, the key is to rely on yourself." Zhou Bailong is a sensible person, and there is no need for Li Xiu to talk nonsense.
"Okay, as you said, I, Zhou Bailong, lost unjustly." Zhou Bailong poured a glass of wine for Li Xiu: "Are you interested in coming to my place to help? I happen to have a trial gate here, and the trial inside
The project is golf. I don’t have any other abilities in my life. I only have two benefits. One is to play golf well, and the other is to be rich.”
"Of course, I'm definitely not as good at fighting as you, but I'm definitely much better than the average person." Zhou Bailong continued: "At my age, I have everything, but my health is not good, so I just want to go to the training ground.
Improve your physical fitness, otherwise with so many wives at home, you may not be able to take advantage of any of them."
"What do you mean?" Li Xiu understood somewhat.
"What I mean is that I don't dare to take risks in other trial gates. I am good at Gaofer and I am confident about it. As long as it is not a too advanced trial, I should be fine. But, if you don't fear ten thousand for everything,
I'm afraid of what might happen, so I want to ask you, brother, to escort me." Zhou Bailong said.
"It should be more than just escort, right?" Li Xiu said calmly.
Zhou Bailong even has real trialists under his command. He just wants to go to a low-level trial ground to improve his physical fitness. There is no need to find him. Finding a few professional-level trialists is not an easy task.
"Brother is indeed a sensible person." Zhou Bolong laughed: "Actually, this trial gate doesn't completely belong to me now. There is another person who is fighting with me. We have agreed that the trial will determine the outcome.
Whoever wins the trial will own the trial door."
"I am determined to win this trial gate. You help me win this trial gate. You can open any conditions you want." Zhou Bailong said.
"Let's talk about the trial rules first." Li Xiu didn't offer a price, he just asked.
"It's the rules of golf, one-on-one, the winner passes the trial, the loser dies." Zhou Bailong didn't hide anything and explained the trial rules clearly.
"I can take this job, but I have a condition." Li Xiu looked at Zhou Bailong and said.
"Say." Zhou Bailong also looked at Li Xiu. He also wanted to know what conditions Li Xiu had.
"I want to enter the Gate of Purgatory." Li Xiu said slowly.
"You want to enter the gate of purgatory?" Zhou Bailong, Mr. Yu and Mr. Chu were all shocked when they heard this.
The Gate of Purgatory is famous in the Southern Cross Federation. Everyone knows that it is difficult to open the Gate of Purgatory and even harder to get out alive.
"Yes, I want to enter the Gate of Purgatory. Is there any way?" Li Xiu asked.
"I'm afraid this is not easy to handle. The Gate of Purgatory has been sealed by the city lord since that time, and others are not allowed to open the Gate of Purgatory. Brother, why are you so stubborn? If you want to go to a place like that, thousands of people can enter, and only one person can enter it.
Those who came out alive are still missing in the end." Zhou Bailong glanced at Mr. Yu and said.
"I just heard about the magic of the Gate of Purgatory and wanted to see it," Li Xiu said.
"It's best not to see that place. It's a place where you have the life to go but not the life to come back. Let's do this. From now on, you can enter the door of trial in my name as you like, and I will cover all the gems that open the door of trial. If there is any in the future,
If you have the chance, I can also arrange for you to enter the Gate of Purgatory, and the gem that opens the door will be mine. But there is no guarantee that there will be a chance. After all, I have no say in this matter. It depends on when the Lord of the Red Sand City unblocks the trial.
Door." Zhou Bolong said thoughtfully.
"Deal." Li Xiu is still very satisfied with such conditions. What he lacks now is the opportunity to enter the trial gate.
After signing the contract with Zhou Bolong, Zhou Bolong sent a list to Li Xiu. On it were all the trial gates under his name. There were as many as thirteen, five of them were near Red Sand City, and the rest were distributed in
Various places in the Southern Cross Commonwealth.
The closest trial gate to here is on the Red Sand City side. It is impossible to go there now. Li Xiu can only wait for the matter here to be dealt with before going to Zhou Bolong's side.
Zhou Bolong's golf duel is in Hongsha City, and the time is a month later. Just go there a few days in advance, so that it won't interfere with the affairs in Chongshan City.
Li Xiu also asked Zhou Bolong about the Lord of Chongshan City. Zhou Bolong seemed to have some taboos and did not explain clearly. He only said that the Lord of Chongshan City had a prominent position in the Southern Cross Federation and told him not to provoke that person at will.
"I didn't expect your skills to be so good. If I had known you had such skills, I wouldn't have had to work so hard. I would have just asked you to play with him." Chu Jun said with a smile on the way back.
"Just beating him is nothing." Li Xiu thought about the Lord of Zhongshan City and said absently.
He already knew Zhou Bolong's identity. Even Zhou Bolong, the jewel king, kept it secret from the Lord of Chongshan City. The identity of the Lord of Chongshan City must not be simple.
If Official Ximen wants to get his magic equipment back, it may not be that simple.
"Why do you want to go to the Gate of Purgatory?" Chu Jun asked curiously.
"Real trialists should all want to go there, it's just a question of whether they dare or not." Li Xiu answered.
"That's right." Chu Jun nodded, seemingly thoughtful.
After returning to the hotel, Li Xiu gave the Ghost-faced Magic Costume to Ximen Guan. He added a lot of tools to his room, but Li Xiu was very doubtful, could these simple tools really be used to transform the Magic Costume?
The instruments and tools he had seen in the Magic Equipment Laboratory of Space City were much higher-end than this.
"Don't worry, just leave it to me. A real master only needs the most primitive tools to create the best magic equipment. Brother, I will let you have a long look and see what a purely handmade magic equipment is..."
"Guan Ximen saw Li Xiu's doubts and immediately started boasting.
Li Xiu shook his head and returned to his room.
When the Brave Trial Field opened again, Li Xiu and the other three went to the City Lord's Mansion together.
Before leaving, Officer Ximen told them to participate in two more brave trials at most, and I am afraid there will be an A-level trial later.
Li Xiu didn't really care whether he was A-level or not. It would be better if he could get S-level. He was worried that there was no place to get attributes.
Try to get attribute rewards these few times. His body will be strengthened to a higher level and he will no longer be affected by the Fire Lotus Sword. His clearance speed will be faster.
In addition to the three of them, the Lord of Chongshan City found seven more testers. Two of the testers were familiar faces from the last time, and the others were very unfamiliar and should be newly recruited.
One of the familiar faces was Ye Yuzhen. When Li Xiu saw it, Ye Yuzhen gave Li Xiu a vicious look.
I haven't seen him for three days, and all the injuries on this guy's body are almost healed.
The adjutant led them to open the brave trial ground. Several people walked in one after another and came to the white room again.
"Welcome to the Brave Trial Field. The A-level trial is about to begin. The trial rules are as follows..." The electronic synthesized sound sounded.
The A-level trial came earlier than Ximen Guan expected, and this time there was an A-level trial.
The countdown to the first round of the Dark Maze Trial was as long as an hour, which was twice as long as the time limit for the B-level trial. It seemed that the difficulty had been reduced.
Everyone knows that it is not that the difficulty has decreased, but that the difficulty in the dark maze has increased, so the time will increase accordingly.
Seeing that it was an A-level trial, Ye Yuzhen's expression became serious.
He has never entered the A-level trial, so he doesn't know what kind of changes there will be in the A-level dark maze.
Although it has the advantage of being able to see, mazes cannot be exited just by being able to see them.
Ye Yuzhen glared at Li Xiu and decided to explore the maze first, and then go to trouble Li Xiu if he had extra time.
Seeing Ye Yuzhen staring at him, Li Xiu smiled at him.
"Humph." Ye Yuzhen snorted coldly, turned his head away, and ignored Li Xiu's provocation.
When the other trialists saw that it was an A-level trial, their faces became extremely ugly. This was much more difficult than the previous trials.
There are several trialists here who have participated in the Brave Trial before, but the trials they participated in before were E-level and D-level, and few people have even seen B-level.
This time, an A-level suddenly appeared, and they thought it was just bad luck.
When the countdown ended, the light screen suddenly went out, and the entire room immediately fell into darkness. The door sealed by the invisible force was also opened by the trialists at the same time, and they chose different directions to rush out.
Ye Yuzhen didn't rush out immediately, nor did he chase them.
There were only a few people who could make it out of the A-level trial alive, so he didn't have to waste his time and let them die in the trial.
Originally, Ye Yu really wanted to explore a way out by himself first, but he saw Li Xiu and three people holding hands and heading in the direction he was going to go.
"Okay, let these three guys help me explore the way." Ye Yuzhen was moved and followed the three of them.
He had no intention of taking action this time, but if anything happened to Li Xiu and the three of them, he wouldn't mind beating up the drowned dog.
"It hurt me so miserably last time, and this time I will be like a mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind." Ye Yuzhen became more and more proud as he thought about it, deeply impressed by his intelligence.
Li Xiu walked at the front. He walked very slowly. Every time he opened a door, he would listen carefully for a while before entering.
Fortunately, there was nothing special about the first few rooms, but Li Xiu still walked cautiously.
Venomous snakes and beasts have already appeared in the B-level dark maze. Who knows what will be in the A-level dark maze.
Li Xiu thought about it and suddenly felt his right foot sinking down, and the floor seemed to have sunk under his step.
"No, there's an agency." Li Xiu immediately felt something was wrong and yelled to remind Ajie and Shachu.
But the three of them had just reached the center of the room, equally far away from every door, and it was too late to move forward or backward.
Ye Yuzhen, who had just followed him through the door, was startled when he heard Li Xiu shouting that there was a trap. He turned around and wanted to run back.
But the door that had opened with just a push just now could not be opened at this time.
Boom!
The ground in the room suddenly sank in many places, with only a few pillar-like blocks still maintaining their original height.
Ye Yuzhen only felt that his feet were empty and his body fell downwards. He quickly waved his arms desperately, trying to catch something.
Fortunately, he was lucky. There was a square pillar next to him. He grabbed the edge of the pillar and climbed up.
When I lowered my head and looked at the sunken place on the side, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
The place where it sank is more than ten meters deep, and the bottom is covered with steel cones nearly one meter long. If it had fallen just now, it would have been dug into a hornet's nest immediately.
Li Xiu and Bandit were standing on the middle pillar, while Shachu had let go of Bandit's hand and stood on a pillar next to them.
Li Xiu couldn't see anything, so he slowly tested the edge of the pillar with his feet, and found that the pillar was empty on all sides, with no way to go.
"Are you okay?" Sha Chu's voice came over.
"It's okay." Li Xiu heard Sha Chu's voice and immediately understood: "There should be some places in this room that have not sunk. We can only pass through this room by jumping to those places that have not sunk."
"But how do you know which places have not sunk?" Shachu tried to use Qi, trying to illuminate the room with the light of Qi, but it had no effect at all. Qi was like a dead thing that had lost its life, with no reaction at all.
nothing.
Ye Yuzhen stood on the pillar and was very happy. He could see clearly and knew where the pillar was, so it was easy to get out.
Li Xiu and the others couldn't see that if they jumped in any direction, they would most likely fall down and be trapped in a hornet's nest.
"Although it's a pity that I can't kill you with my own hands, it's also a happy thing to be able to appreciate your death." Ye Yuzhen said suddenly.
"So you are here too." Li Xiu said.
"Hehe, of course you are here. How could I miss the scene of you being tied into a sieve? To tell you the truth, the sunken places are full of sharp cones. If you fall, you will die." Ye Yuzhen mocked.
He said: "Would you like me to tell you where there is a place where you can stay?"
"Okay, thank you very much." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Hey, listen carefully, right in front of you, two blocks away from the blocks you are stepping on, there is another square pillar. Just jump." Ye Yuzhen said with a sneer.
Ye Yuzhen really didn't lie to Li Xiu. There was indeed a square pillar there, but he expected that Li Xiu wouldn't believe what he said.
As long as Li Xiu doesn't believe him, no matter which way Li Xiu jumps in the other three directions, he will end up dead in the end.
He deliberately pointed out a way out, but in fact it made Li Xiu dare not choose that way.
Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiu jumped up in the darkness and landed at the place he said.
"Thank you, my friend. What should we do next?" Li Xiu asked Ah Gui to jump over, and Sha Chu jumped to where they were before.
Ye Yuzhen's eyes twitched, and he was secretly angry: "This kid is really smart. He must have thought that I would deliberately point out the right direction. I don't believe it. He dares to continue to believe me, so I just point him in the right direction again."
In the right direction, see if he dares to jump again."
"The two squares on the right are pillars." As soon as Ye Yuzhen finished speaking, he saw Li Xiu jumping up again.
But this time, Li Xiu jumped over as he was told and landed firmly on the pillar again.
Agui and Shachu also moved their positions one by one, getting closer to the door to exit.
"Let me go, can this kid see it? Is he deliberately acting for me here?" Ye Yuzhen had long suspected that Li Xiu could see it, but after thinking about it, he felt wrong. If he could really see it, he would just go there.
Yeah, what are you going to do with him here?
"Friend, what happens next?" Li Xiu's voice came over again.
"I don't believe there are people like this in the world who would truly trust their enemies." Ye Yu really seemed like a gambler who was desperate to lose.
After betting on odd and even, several orders came out in succession, but he didn't believe that the odds would come again, so he resolutely bet on even.
Ye Yuzhen pointed in the right direction, but Li Xiu jumped over without hesitation and landed on the pillar.
"You're playing psychological warfare for me, right? Let me show you what real psychological warfare is." Ye Yuzhen felt depressed. When Li Xiu asked him where to jump again, he sneered and said, "What's next?
There are six pillars to reach the opposite side. The order is front left, front left, front left, front. If you believe me, just jump."
Seeing that Li Xiu and the others actually listened to his words and jumped over the pillars one by one, Ye Yuzhen couldn't help but sneer secretly.
Among his six steps, the first four were correct. He wanted to use these four steps to make Li Xiu fall into a gambler's mentality. Then the fifth step was actually to the right, but he said left.
If Li Xiu didn't have a gambler's mentality, he wouldn't have believed Ye Yuzhen in the first four steps, and it would be a dead end by then.
If Li Xiu has a gambler's mentality, he will die in the fifth step.
As for the sixth step, it doesn't matter. The fifth step is already a sure-kill situation.
Seeing Li Xiu leading Ajie and Sha Chu to jump over step by step, and the first four steps were all done according to his instructions, Ye Yuzhen showed an evil smile on his lips.
"Sure enough, this guy has a gambler's mentality, so this step is his fatal step." Ye Yuzhen looked at Li Xiu, and a voice in his heart shouted: "Jump down, jump down, this is yours."
Life."
In Ye Yu's expectation, Li Xiu finally jumped, but instead of jumping to the left, he jumped to the right.
"What's going on...why did you jump to the right?" Ye Yuzhen cried out with his eyes wide open.
He didn't understand why Li Xiu could see through his plan. It was impossible. His plan was perfect.
"Friend, although I am indeed not very smart, you can't treat me as a fool, right? If you jump to the left as you say, then you will jump to the left corner. If you jump to the right, you will be facing the door...
…”
Li Xiu's words made Ye Yu feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and his old face turned red. He only considered the mentality of a gambler, and really hadn't thought about this problem.
Ye Yuzhen now wishes he could find a hole in the ground to burrow into. This kind of mistake is too low-level.
"Thank you, friend. Without you as a guiding light, it would really take some time to get through this room." Li Xiu had already led Ajie and Shachu out of the room, and turned around to thank Ye Yuzhen.
