Abnormal paradise

At the beginning of entering the city, the Ember trio and other teams seemed to have two different styles of painting. This was especially true in the second level guarded by the soul-resident corpse. Under the control of the giant scorpion deputy leader, the players were forced to enter the forced animation.

After finally getting rid of all the witchcraft monsters, Old Withered Tree and his teammates didn't even have time to take a breath, and then encountered even greater trouble. The supposedly "taciturn" soul-inhabiting corpse met Aladdin. Finally, he suddenly spoke.

"I died a miserable death, don't you think?"

In the dungeon space constructed by the magic circle, the light was dim and the candlelight flickered. The pale-faced soul-resident corpse struggled to get up from the ground. With its bloodshot eyes, it stared at Aladdin, whose pupils were tightened, and grinned. Asked indifferently.

"..."

Aladdin was speechless because he was in great fear. After all, anyone who saw his body and spoke would feel panicked, especially since Aladdin had once moved his "heart of compassion" and hoped to take it away and replace it in the past. The soul-inhabiting corpse.

Facing his other self again at this moment, Aladdin naturally felt a sense of self-blame, because this is true - same person but different destiny!

"Why don't you speak? Is it because of guilt or fear?"

The mocking look on the face of the soul-hosting corpse became more and more intense. He suddenly pulled off his tattered clothes, revealing a broken body full of stitch marks. You could even vaguely see the beating heart in the narrow gap in the chest. This scene immediately frightened the pet monkey Peanut and retracted his head into his owner's arms.

"Thanks to you, I fell into the hands of the deputy chief. I couldn't live or die. Although it seems that I left a whole body and my will is still clear, I really want to ask, if you get the magic lamp, Will it resurrect me?"

The soul-resident corpse stared at Aladdin, who was evading, and stopped him immediately. He only had two chances to pray for the magic lamp. If he resurrected the giant scorpion princess and then resurrected "himself", it would not only be a huge waste. , will further cause various problems.

Is he, a fake from the past, really qualified to pursue the noble princess without the blessing of the magic lamp?

Aladdin's answer is pessimistic. He knows that he is just an ordinary person. If it were not for the magic lamp, he would never have a relationship with the Scorpion Princess. Although under the influence of the magic lamp, he believes that the Scorpion Princess will still fall in love with him. , but when he thought that this love would be split into two, fear arose in Aladdin's heart. He was afraid that the only wealth left by the magic lamp would leave him, so the answer is self-evident.

"I'm not surprised by your choice. After all, I am you too, so you should know what my choice will be..."

The soul-hosting corpse laughed miserably, suddenly stretched out his hand to pull open the suture needle, inserted it deep into his chest through the open wound, and crushed his own beating heart.

Phew!

In an instant, dark red blood spurted out from the wound, splashing everywhere, frightening Aladdin out of his wits. However, the soul-resident corpse ushered in a moment of sublimation by self-destruction, and its health attributes were directly catching up with the three-star legend.

"Since I can't get something, why should I let you get it? Didn't we use this method to grab the magic lamp from the hands of the giant scorpion deputy chief? At that time, we won with our lives. , so I want to bet with you again!"

Jump, jump, jump!

The sutures and threads all over the body suddenly collapsed at this moment, revealing the true state of the soul-inhabiting corpse. The fat, viscera, bones, flesh, and facial features from at least seven human bodies suddenly appeared. It became inhuman, as if a complete head was embedded in a flesh-and-blood monster that was two meters square.

With such an unreasonable body structure, even if the soul-hosting corpse just stretches its neck, its tiny head will be covered by waves of flesh, and only a hoarse and low voice can be squeezed out from the gap:

"I'm destined to die anyway, so why don't you come and accompany me?"

[Tip: Only by killing the two-star legendary "Soul Corpse" within forty-five seconds without anyone being killed (including the pet monkey "Peanut") can Aladdin pass the "Fear" test. 】

…

[Hint: You helped Aladdin pass the "Fear" test, and the completion rate increased to 40%. 】

"Sure enough, there is a test link in this level. Although I don't know what to be afraid of, it is always a good thing to pass it easily."

Ember didn't take the soul-resident corpse seriously, patted Aladdin on the shoulder, and prepared to advance to the next level to win.

"Well, I always feel that there are a lot of unsaid lines in The Soul-Resident Corpse. What do you think?" Qiu Yinong asked.

"I think so."

"Heroes think alike."

"Would you like to go back and ask others what's the special plot of Soul-Resident Corpse? To be honest, I'm quite curious." Qiu Yinong is very interested in the strange journey of going back to the past and back to the present.

"Although doing this would be like adding salt to the wound, I think it will work. What do you think, Ember?"

"First make sure to complete the hidden mission first, and then let's talk about this."

Ember did not take it lightly. Even if everything went smoothly before, it did not mean that the task of taking down the monkey was a certainty. Who knew if there would be any surprises? The precedent of popping champagne at midfield is a painful lesson learned from ancient times.

Later, Bai Qi helped everyone bathe in the flowing energy again, extend the "invisibility film", and enter the third level. However, there are no monsters in this level, just a small maze full of traps. It may be difficult for others, but watching Arriving in front of the white flag with flowing energy is easier than the previous two levels.

"I'm lucky, just follow me." Bai Qi smiled and took a puff of his pipe. "Although I don't know why the level content is set up like this, you can't eat the pie in the sky."

"Is there any problem?" Yi Jin raised his eyebrows.

"As far as I know, the content of the levels within a single circle are usually the same. For example, you fight monsters at the beginning. The only difference is that the difficulty increases. In the middle of the fight, it suddenly turns into a maze. I am still the first See you next time.”

"is that so……"

Yi Yan remembered Bai Qi's words in his heart, secretly cheered up, took out the giant scorpion arm shield to protect Aladdin, and quickly followed Bai Qi through most of the maze. However, at this moment, Bai Qi's expression changed, because he Seeing the flow path of the magic circle's energy, subtle changes suddenly occurred. This is a unique sign that the people in the main formation want to tamper with the magic circle.

Click!

Bai Qi didn't explain much. He took out his camera and pressed the shutter on the surroundings. Then everyone saw many light spots appearing out of thin air around them.

"Smash the light point quickly, we only have fifteen seconds to escape!"

Hearing this, Yu Yan and Qiu Yinong were shocked. They knew that the consequence of being unable to escape from the flowing energy within the specified time would be to be strangled by the giant scorpion deputy leader with a magic circle. Fortunately, not only did everyone have outstanding skills, but there were also several praying mantises to help, and they succeeded. After five seconds, all the light points will be shattered and you will be separated from the flow of energy. You will also lose your invisibility and be completely immersed in the intricate maze level with high walls.

"Let's leave quickly while the trap location hasn't been changed!"

Bai Qi knew very well how dangerous the formation could be if someone presided over it, and the only fifteen seconds to escape also demonstrated the terrifying strength of the Giant Scorpion Deputy Clan. If you delay for one second, the crisis would increase by one point, even if the Giant Scorpion Deputy Clan leader You can't change the end point to another location, but you can still make the rest of the journey full of murderous intent.

However, just to be on the safe side, Bai Qi directed the leader of Mantis to run at the front of the team, and then led everyone to advance quickly according to his memory. As expected, the distance to the finish line was greatly shortened before the giant scorpion leader changed the position of the trap. However, the price was that the leader of Mantis was killed. Ax trap.

"Let's stop here for a moment." Bai Qi bit his pipe and looked at the road with burning eyes. "Every step I take next, I have to see clearly in advance! This giant scorpion deputy leader is really powerful. With my perception level , there is only a 30% success rate in finding a safe passage, so even though there is only a short distance left in the end, it will take at least three or four minutes to pass!"

"It's only three or four minutes, we can afford it." Yu Jin expressed satisfaction with Bai Qi's time expectation.

"But having said that, why doesn't the Giant Scorpion Vice-Clan just kill us?" Bai Qi frowned and expressed his doubts, "He is actually completely capable of ignoring the rules of the formation. Even if there are strong people outside to restrain him, he can't be stopped. Capture Aladdin alive.”

"This is a question worth exploring!"

Hearing this, Yi Yan was thoughtful, thinking of the unreasonable level changes, and suddenly realized something in his heart. His eyes couldn't help but glance at Aladdin, who was frowning. However, he could not prove his idea for the time being, so he immediately smiled and said: " The most urgent thing is to get out of the maze quickly, and the rest can wait until we reach the last level."

If the content performance in the last level is in line with my judgment, then these strange things can be explained.

Ember said truthfully in his heart.

Bai Qi nodded and concentrated on activating his exploration ability to find a safe path to the end.

Of course, the "safety" here is only relatively speaking. Many less dangerous traps require Ember's strength to defeat them and defend them with shields, and Qiu Yinong's crossbows to block them or activate them remotely.

Although the trouble was a bit troublesome, the victory was that safety was guaranteed. They watched the three people of Ember go through the obstacles all the way. Not to mention Aladdin, even the pet monkey Peanut plucked up the courage and looked around with curiosity until everyone successfully crossed the finish line and escaped. The maze then returned to the courtyard that Aladdin was most familiar with, instead of continuing to be a special space constructed by a magic circle.

"I'm home?"

The sudden scene made Aladdin feel mixed emotions. Looking back on his escape journey, he could write a masterpiece of adventure.

Chichi chichi!

The pet monkey Peanut was even more happy. He hurriedly wanted to get out of his cloak and climb and run in the yard, but was immediately restrained by his owner.

"Wait a minute, Peanut...just a minute, and we'll really go home."

Aladdin showed enough maturity and stability at this moment, soothed the impatient pet, and then looked back at Yi Ember and the others. He knew that the reason why he could return home was because of these three people who protected him from the wind and rain.

"I will definitely stand against the deputy chief without wavering."

Aladdin made another promise in his heart. Perhaps it was a coincidence. The next moment he heard the voice of the Giant Scorpion deputy leader echoing in the courtyard.

"It's not easy for you to come here unscathed. If my guess is correct, Death Soldier No. 1 died in your hands, right?" The deputy chief of the giant scorpion did not show up, but said in a slightly hoarse voice. In the ears of Ember and others.

"So what if it is? What if it's not?"

Yi Yan increased his vigilance and led Qiu Yinong and others to protect Aladdin, always on guard against incoming crises.

"Haha, that's a good question! Whether it's true or not, since you got involved, you are destined to die." The vice-chief of the Giant Scorpion laughed dumbly, and then changed the topic, "Aladdin, will you regret today?"

"No! If I let you get the magic lamp, that will be the thing that makes me regret the most!" Under the protection of Yu Yan and others, Aladdin finally plucked up the courage.

"Isn't it true? You are just under strict protection to avoid witnessing too many tragedies, so you are willing to say some serious words." The deputy chief of the giant scorpion said in a relaxed tone, without any anger at all, "But if I tell you, One of my thoughts can decide your mother's life or death, how dare you say that you don't regret it?"

"What?" Aladdin's heart tightened, and the psychological defense he had finally cultivated was almost directly broken.

"As expected!"

Hearing this, Ember showed a relaxed expression that was completely different from Aladdin, which also allowed him to figure out the two problems that had troubled White Flag before.

The four levels of this magic circle don't seem to be "consistent", but in fact they continue one line of thought from beginning to end, which is to launch a psychological offensive against Aladdin.

The witchcraft monster in the first level will remind Aladdin of his dungeon life. The soul-inhabiting corpse in the second level is a critical blow to Aladdin's soul. Although there is no proof of the past in the third level, Ember feels so depressed. In a dangerous environment, if there are casualties or too much delay, it will inevitably affect Aladdin's mentality, causing him to lose his mind when faced with the shocking news that his mother has been captured.

The ultimate goal of the giant scorpion deputy leader is nothing more than to "persuade" Aladdin to transfer the djinn contract to him.

As for why the players were not eliminated in advance, Ember felt that the Scorpion Vice-Clan wanted to use them as pawns to capture Aladdin, coating the deep despair with a layer of sugar-coating called hope, waiting for Aladdin to swallow it whole. Prompt the giant scorpion deputy chief to achieve his goal.

It's a pity that Yan Yan and others are all Xiaoqiang, and they failed to die in front of Aladdin one after another as the deputy leader of the giant scorpion had imagined. At the same time, the core of despair under the sugar coating was gradually replaced by hope.

"Dear Vice Chief of the Giant Scorpion, can I ask a question? This magic circle should have its own name, right?"

"[Desire for control]."

Aladdin's performance made the giant scorpion deputy patriarch very satisfied, so he had no intention of hiding it: "This is a desire control circle designed by the shaman himself. It can amplify negative emotions to the extreme. If you want to be her right-hand man, you need to be thorough." Indulging in negative emotions... let the shaman hold the gate of life."

The voice of the deputy leader of the giant scorpion suddenly became deeper, and he paused before continuing: "What a pity, you had a chance to pass all the levels, but someone obviously couldn't hold on anymore! Aladdin, if you don't want to look at your mother, Die in front of you, and let your regrets control you without any resistance."

"Isn't it true?" Yi Jin shook his head and asked.

"Oh, I don't know. It seems that it is not up to you, a nobody, to decide!" The voice of the deputy chief of the giant scorpion suddenly became harsh. In order to obtain the magic lamp and pray for it, he had to make a sacrifice to the three insect shaman, and then borrowed the magic lamp to control it. Desire Array, so he couldn't tolerate anyone's comments, especially outsiders like Ember, who were just used to deepen the negative impact.

"Uh-huh... Although I am indeed a nobody compared to the respected Vice-Clan Giant Scorpion, I still want to remind you, do you really hold your trump card firmly in the palm of your hand?"

"What do you mean?"

"I knew you didn't understand." Ember shrugged, and then slowly said under the gaze of everyone, "Please confirm whether Aladdin's mother is in your hands before making a victory speech. To be honest, I have seen many people like you who think they have a chance to win."
