From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 196
c193 Time accelerates and the stronger ones enter
Will the core area be opened in advance?
Looking at the golden figure in front of them, the two young men showed surprised expressions.
Philip asked: “Can’t the ruins directly eliminate the people of the dark faction?”
“…Be careful, the deeper you go into the ruins, the faster time passes compared to the outside world.”
But the conflicting spiral earth spirit had no intention of communicating with them. After saying a few words in a dull tone, the figure disappeared instantly, leaving a square golden portal in its place.
This door obviously leads to the core area. It is not forced to be teleported, but allows them to choose whether to enter.
Philip and Hal looked at each other.
“Let’s go.” Hal spoke first and stepped forward.
There is almost no need to hesitate about this choice. The outer area of the ruins is already very dangerous. Even if the lemure demons have disappeared, no one knows whether other accidents will happen in the future. It is better to leave as soon as possible.
Phillip put away the bone dragon and followed Hal into the portal.
As soon as their eyes blurred, they arrived at a golden hall.
——The ceiling, walls and floor are all paved with earthy yellow stone bricks, exuding a faint golden light, looking sacred and glorious.
Hundreds of high-level adventurers have gathered in the hall, and people are constantly coming in through the portal.
Many of them were injured, their clothes were stained with blood, and their faces were happy. They had obviously experienced difficult battles and encountered dangers in the outer area.
“Finally in!”
“How come lemures and devils appear in the ruins…”
“No matter what, it’s finally safe.”
… From the discussions among the adventurers, it can be known that many people do not know what happened. Adventurers of this level have probably never even heard of the dark sect.
However, as long as you enter the core area, adventurers are prohibited from fighting each other, and monsters cannot enter. It is indeed safe.
“He didn’t come in?”
Hal muttered in a low voice, looking left and right in the crowd, but did not see Roja, “Are only high-level adventurers coming in? He should be level five or above…”
Phillip glanced at him and said, “Are you looking for someone?”
Hal nodded without hiding anything, “Well, it seems he hasn’t teleported in yet.”
At this moment, a golden figure appeared above the hall again and made a voice without any emotion:
“All those who challenge will enter here in batches from low to high in strength. Fighting and fighting are prohibited in the core area, and violators will be severely punished.”
After saying that, it stretched out its hand and the walls of the hall separated, and passage entrances appeared.
“Go up the stairs of the Spiral Tower. The inheritance at the upper level will be more precious. At the top of the tower, the final trial of Demon God Lati has begun. Those who pass it will receive the inheritance of the power of the Bull of Heaven…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall felt like it was exploding, and the adventurers were talking about it.
“What?” “Bull of Heaven!”
“The final trial has actually started?!”
“I have never heard that this time it will be opened…”
…The expressions of the adventurers were shocked, surprised, and incredible.
The Bull of Heaven is a power inheritance that only exists in legends. According to the guild’s historical records, no one has obtained it for thousands of years.
“This time, before the final trial is successfully challenged, the ruins will not be closed and no one can leave.”
Immediately afterwards, the golden figure said another piece of news that surprised everyone.
ah?
The adventurers looked shocked again, but before they could ask anything, the golden figure disappeared instantly.
“can not go out?”
An adventurer looked a little ugly, “Didn’t you just have to challenge a certain trial and fail, and you could choose to leave?”
Someone got emotional and said loudly: “What if no one can succeed in the challenge? Are we trapped here forever?!”
Others asked a more practical question: “How long will the food and water last?”
Everyone showed worried faces.
——No matter how powerful the adventurer is, he is still a creature that needs food and water. If he doesn’t eat, he will starve to death…
“This time, do the ruins have to pass on the power of the Bull of Heaven?”
Philip’s face was a little solemn. He was not only thinking about the trial, he was also worried about Rex’s safety, the dark faction, and…
“Does someone have to pass the final trial before everyone can leave the ruins?”
Hal thought for a moment and said, “Then everyone should give the challenge a try?”
A middle-aged adventurer next to him clicked his tongue, frowned and said:
“Boy, do you think everyone is qualified to challenge the final trial? This tower gets harder and harder to climb as you go up, otherwise it is called the weirdest ruins? No one here is strong enough.”
Hal asked: “What difficulties will there be?”
“Would you know if you try it yourself?”
The man seemed too lazy to say anything more, so he turned around and walked into a passage. Behind the passage, you could see a long corridor and upward steps.
At this time, the adventurers in the hall began to walk towards the passage one after another, but it seemed that some people chose to stay in the hall temporarily and sat directly on the ground.
“I’m going to take a rest first and then go climb the tower. Where are you?” Phillip asked.
Hal thought for a while and said, “I’m not too tired. I plan to try it now. What trial do you plan to challenge?”
“The inheritance trial of the undead system.” Philip’s goal has not changed.
“Oh… I don’t have any specific goal. I wish you good luck in your challenge. I’ll leave first.” Hal waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the passage alone.
After entering the innermost part of the ruins, the threat of monsters was gone, so the two naturally no longer needed to act together and parted ways.
Um?
As soon as Hal walked into the passage, he felt a strange wave rush through his body, as if he suddenly entered the water from the air.
He looked at his hands in surprise, then back.
The golden hall can still be seen behind him, but now the hall seems to have slowed down, and the movements of the adventurers inside seem to be much slower in Hal’s eyes.
Time… slowed down?
Hal was surprised – no, maybe my time was sped up?
He couldn’t help but think:
If I stay in the passage for a month, how long will it take in the hall? How many days?
How long will it take for the outer areas of the ruins and the mountains and forests to pass? What about the labyrinth and the City of Order outside the ruins?
Hal drew out his long sword and made a sword show casually, feeling a little hesitant in his heart…
——Forget it, it doesn’t matter so much, let’s go!
He retracted his sword, turned around and continued walking deeper into the passage, then climbed up the steps to a higher level.
…
Meanwhile, the outer areas of the ruins.
Somewhere in the mountain forest, ripples appeared in the void, and several figures were teleported in.
The leading woman has a cold expression, has long silver hair, is covered in silver armor, and has a pair of white wings on her back.
The four-winged white bird Angel, the deputy city lord of the City of Order, entered the ruins.
