MTL - Number One Player-Chapter 19 The hero who keeps dying
In the black line of Shang Yinhe, the narrator continued his ambitious commentary:
"You, you are going to challenge the Demon King's castle!"
"The endless labyrinth is full of monsters and traps."
"Be careful, any mistake will bring death."
"The devil and treasure are waiting for you at the end of the labyrinth!"
After a pause, the narrator's voice became high, and he began the familiar advocacy session of Shang Yinhe:
"Challenge, brave!"
"You will become king on the corpse of the Demon King!"
Tsk tsk, today's narrator is also very passionate.
The hall fell silent, and the narrator stopped explaining.
Shang Yinhe summoned the Devil's Book in his left hand, and habitually browsed the game information first.
Skip the first three pages that are indistinguishable from reality, and the fourth page shows the detailed records of the game.
[Game record]
[Game Name: Death Maze]
[Current status: Combat strength enhancement (in-game)]
[Current gold coins: 0]
[Current weapon: none]
[Current props: none]
[Current Skill: None]
[Number of deaths: 0]
[Number of monsters killed: 0]
…
Similar to the previous two games, dense game information is scattered all over the page. Skip this page, it is the game achievement page. Different achievements give different points, and this time the game points add up to 200 points.
—It’s already the third game world, and he still doesn’t know what the so-called points are for.
- He only knows that the experience gained in each game is linked to points. Well, of course, the more points, the better.
On the sixth page, the title [Game Manual] was written, and the content below was blank. Shang Yinhe didn't care. According to the common sense of the game, it is often necessary to encounter monsters or props before unlocking the illustrated information.
The seventh and last page reads [Game Mission]. Similar to the journeys of other worlds, this page has the first quest:
[Find your weapon (in progress)][Type: Main Quest][Difficulty: Sporadic]
[Description: There are weapons specially provided to warriors in the Demon King's castle. Young warriors, come and find your weapons to face the unknown enemy! ]
Shang Yinhe's eyes stayed on the "sporadic" difficulty of the task for a while.
—A sporadic mission, theoretically it should be very simple.
Thinking like this, Shang Yinhe wandered around the hall for a while, and successfully found a long sword and a round shield behind the two hideous monster statues.
Sure enough, when he held a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, the task changed from "in progress" to "completed".
The next mission is refreshed.
[Defeat the Demon King (in progress)][Type: Main Quest][Difficulty: Five Stars]
[Description: The endless maze is full of monsters and traps, act carefully, any mistakes will bring death. The devil and treasure are waiting for you at the end of the labyrinth, challenge it, brave man, you will become king on the corpse of the devil! ]
Shang Yinhe: "…"
The difficulty of the task suddenly jumped from sporadic to five stars, is it okay?
The mission description repeats what the narrator said, is it alright?
Why does this game feel so unreliable?
Shang Yinhe started his journey of exploration with a belly full of complaints.
He tried to push the door of the entrance, but it didn't move.
He studied the ferocious monster statues for a while, and he felt that it was a bit like a powerful filter version of the real images of "Dirty Throne" and "Undead Ghost".
In addition, he found that his physical strength, strength, agility, jumping ability, and running ability all seemed to have increased to some extent. Especially the jumping ability, he can easily jump up one person in place - this action he can't do in reality.
The feeling of being strengthened is strange, allowing him to swing his sword and raise his shield quickly and easily without even getting tired. Perhaps this is the so-called "strengthening of combat power" in the current state.
It seemed that no further information was provided in the hall. He wandered around for a while in the hall, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, he pushed open the bronze door facing the entrance door.
Shang Yinhe tried to look inside the door, but he saw that the back of the door was dark and could not see anything clearly.
The game offers no more clues, and it looks like this door must be gone. Shang Yinhe closed his cloak and stepped into the darkness.
...a familiar sense of perversion came, and it seemed to be another shift in space and time.
When Shang Yinhe opened his eyes, he was already standing at the entrance of a corridor. The torches on the ancient walls were the only light in this corridor, reflecting a small road under the torches.
Behind him is the closed bronze door.
It's a little strange. When looking into the bronze gate from the other side of the castle hall, Shang Yinhe saw nothing but darkness; when he walked into the bronze gate, there were torches in the corridor for lighting.
Thinking of the confusion when stepping into the gate, Shang Yinhe guessed that maybe, the process of stepping into the gate is actually a process of space transmission?
He took this guess to the bottom of his heart and began to move forward tentatively.
Walking, walking, a puddle of water appeared in front of him. Under the light of the torches, the color of the beach presents a strange change. It doesn't look very safe.
According to the narrator's hint, there are traps in this castle. This strange pool of water is like a trap.
The water beach connects the two sides of the corridor, but the vertical distance is not far. Shang Yinhe decided to jump over it.
He jumped up easily, and with an elegant gesture, drew a wonderful parabola in the air—
"Crack!"
…
"You are dead."
The indifferent and rigid voice of the system rang in my ears.
Shang Yinhe was immobilized in the air in a ghostly manner, staring at his almost broken body.
Shang Yinhe: "…"
How did he die? ? ? ?
Shang Yinhe recalled hard, and finally managed to remember that there seemed to be an invisible sword in the air, which split him in half when he jumped.
This trap can.
It lures you to take off with a water beach, and then puts a big knife in the air.
Really...a very psychological trap making.
The translucent system panel appears in front of Shang Galaxy, but there is only one option:
[restart]
Shang Yinhe let out a long sigh, cleaned up his mood, and clicked the button.
The light flowed, and he returned to the hall of the castle.
Closing his cloak, Shang Yinhe opened the bronze door again.
To his surprise, this time, when he got rid of his sense of dislocation, he found that he was standing at the intersection of a fork in the road.
It seems that the room behind the door is really randomly teleported, maybe every time you will encounter a different journey.
At this fork, there are two roads, left and right, which look similar from this angle. There is a huge arrow on the ground pointing to the right side of the road, and there is a small sign next to the arrow, which reads: Please go here.
Shang Yinhe hesitated for a while, and finally decided to choose the road on the right.
He moved forward tentatively.
One step, two steps, three steps.
The ground suddenly loosened!
"Crack!"
…
"You are dead."
The indifferent and rigid voice of the system rang in my ears again.
Shang Yinhe was immobilized in the air as a ghost, staring at the corpse that he had fallen into the trap.
The spears that were densely covered in the trap passed through his body, and the whole person was dead and horrified.
Shang Yinhe: "…"
Next time he believes in any labyrinth prompts, he will be a fool!
He thought angrily, and tapped [restart] hard.
The third expedition.
Walking in the corridor, Shang Yinhe saw the water beach on the ground again.
Very familiar.
Isn't this the first time I've encountered a beach?
At that time, he wanted to jump over, but there was a big knife in the air.
This time, Shang Yinhe decided not to jump, and just walked over honestly.
One step, two steps.
"呲—!"
…
"You are dead."
The system's indifferent and rigid voice sounded in his ears for the third time.
Shang Yinhe floated in mid-air, staring at his corpse in the water.
The water seemed to be highly toxic and corrosive, and Shang Yinhe watched helplessly as his body continued to emit white smoke and squeaks in the water, and finally slowly melted into the water.
The beach with a strange glow was left alone, reflecting the light twinkling under the torchlight in the corridor, as if it was laughing silently.
Shang Yinhe: "…"
He felt that his anger was about to set himself on fire: I can't jump over this beach, I can't walk over it, how else can I get past it? !
There's no way out at all, right?
Shang Yinhe hammered the [Restart] in front of him, and started his fourth adventure in anger and depression.
...and he came across the beach again.
The strange water beach stayed calmly in front of Shang Yinhe, like a mountain blocking the road, and like a grinning robber, silently shouting: If you want to pass from here, there is no door!
Shang Yinhe thought about it for a long time, but didn't figure out how to get there.
Can't jump, can't walk, do you want him to fly over?
Standing dumbfounded for most of the day, Shang Yinhe finally decided to jump over.
Die or die, next time you pray to randomly encounter a good room, don't encounter this **** water beach-
Um?
hmmmm?
Shang Yinhe fell to the ground with a bewildered face.
Did he jump over?
He landed on the other end of the beach and looked back with question marks all over his head.
Behind it was the eerie beach, reflecting the brilliance of the torches.
Only then did Shang Yinhe confirm: he really jumped over it.
If the solution to the beach trap is to jump over, why did he encounter the broadsword in the air for the first time?
With a stomach full of doubts, Shang Yinhe continued to move deeper into the corridor.
As a result, he encountered the beach again.
How high is the proportion of beach traps in this game?
Shang Yinhe hesitated for a while in front of the strange water beach, and finally decided to jump over.
After all, he just managed to jump over the beach trap, didn't he?
Take two steps back, prepare, take off—
"Crack!"
…
"You are dead."
The system's indifferent and rigid voice sounded in his ears for the fourth time.
Shang Yinhe was immobilized in the air in a ghostly manner, staring at his almost broken body.
The visible broadsword in the air slowly returned to its invisible state, only a drop of blood fell, ticking, on the broken corpse.
Such a familiar scene.
Shang Yinhe: "…"
- What a spicy chicken game!
- Spicy chicken game, ruining my life!
