Human race, but was chased by girls from all races

"Take it out of the underground palace and let it see the light of day again." The gem guard said word by word. Its tone was serious, not joking.

"Why?" Lin Tianlang's eyes widened, somewhat confused about the situation.

If you grab it yourself, you will be making an enemy of the gem guard. Unless the gem guard is killed by you, it is impossible to give the gem to you. Now that you have given up on your own initiative, the gem guard instead took the initiative to give up the gem fragments. Why is this? ?

"I know you have doubts, let me answer them slowly." The gem guard's voice was still low, but there was no hostility in it.

In this way, the gem guard slowly opened its chat box.

"Since the Frost Rainbow Gem fragment was sealed in the ancient city of Atlanton, many people have been here over the past few hundred years. Especially in the first hundred years after it was sealed, there were often people who wanted to break into this place. Seize the gem fragment.”

"However, you must have seen it when you came in. In order to protect the gems, the city of Atlanton has set up a lot of protective measures, including but not limited to various agencies and a large number of stone statue guards."

The four of them looked at each other in confusion. The stone statue guards mentioned by the gem guard should be the stone statue figures in the ancient city above the main hall.

"Many people lost their lives in the first level, but a few people went deep into the depths of the ancient city, but almost no one could find the location where the gem fragments were actually hidden, which is the Gem Hall."

"Later on, as more and more people died in the ancient city of Atlanton, people gradually gave up. After all, there are six gem fragments, so there is no need to stick to this one."

"Later, Atlanton sank into the ground and was buried deeply. No one could find where it was. For three hundred years, no one came to disturb this ancient palace again. Until a hundred years ago."

Having said this, the gem guard paused for a moment, and at the same time the light in his eyes flashed twice.

"A hundred years ago, a team of four like you found the location of the ancient city of Atlanton. They went deep into the city, broke through the outer blockade of the stone statue guards, entered the inner city, and activated the space magic in the main hall. The formation has arrived at the true core of the ancient city."

The gem guard said while looking into Lin Tianlang's eyes.

"That team was just like you. After passing through the space magic circle, three people were sacrificed and one was a brave person, starting the real trial of the underground palace."

"The brave man is the captain of the four-man team. He is very young and very strong. Like you, he broke through three blockades, the murder corridor, the gladiatorial arena, and walked out. Dark Labyrinth, and heroically sacrificed his own blood to open the stone door and enter here."

"Classmate Lin Tianlang, it turns out that you have to pass so many levels when you come here!" Aniya exclaimed.

"Ah, yes. I originally wanted to tell you slowly after leaving the underground palace, but now it has been spoiled." Lin Tianlang smiled helplessly and said.

However, although Lin Tianlang acted very relaxed, Xu Weiwei next to him lowered his head and bit his lip gently.

Is that so? In order to find us, it seems that you have gone through a lot of setbacks and difficulties that we can't even imagine...

Thinking this in her heart, Xu Weiwei felt a little distressed, but also felt a little happy. Her heartbeat gradually accelerated, and she couldn't help but squeeze Lin Tianlang's arm tightly.

She looked at Sherrys on the other side of Sirius, and found that the blond girl also had her head lowered, wondering what she was thinking about.

"Classmate Lin Tianlang... you, you... those mechanisms didn't hurt you, right?" Aniya's eyes were filled with mist, and her voice was slightly crying.

"That's not the case. I'm quite lucky. But I can't help it. Who said you are my important companions? No matter how difficult it is, I have to get through it!" Lin Tianlang smiled bitterly and said. Speaking of which, thanks to the help of the rainbow gem, he was able to pass through those levels in a "tricky" way. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult.

"Ugh..." Aniya lowered her head and remained silent, but she secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"What happened after that young man came to the Gem Hall? Since the gem fragments are still here, it seems that he failed in the last step. Why is this?" Lin Tianlang asked.

Could it be that that guy, like me, chose to fight the gem guard in order to save his companions, and then was killed by the gem guard because he was outmatched?

"Are you thinking that that young man failed to win the gem because he failed to defeat me? Is that true?" the gem guard asked in a deep voice.

"What else?" Lin Tianlang scratched his head.

"That's not the case." The gem guard slowly shook his head. When its stone head twisted, it looked really oozing, as if it was about to break at any moment.

"After arriving at the Gem Hall, I asked him the exact same question. I asked him if he would choose to sacrifice the lives of his companions to directly break the seal of the Gem Altar. The answer you gave me was no, because you felt that sacrificing the lives of his companions would The price is too heavy for you. In short, you think the lives of your three companions are worth more than the rainbow gems." The gem guard looked at Lin Sirius quietly.

!!!

Hearing this, the three women couldn't help but look at Lin Tianlang's face.

"Suddenly everyone is looking at me. I am telling the truth. Even if you can't get the rainbow gem, there are six pieces in total. If you can't get this one, there are five others. It's really not possible. The gems are man-made. You can also create another one. But you only have one life. If it is gone, it is really gone! Isn't it obvious which one is more important?" Lin Tianlang explained.

"Boy Lin Tianlang, this is just your answer. That young man is different from you. He made another choice." The gem guard said slowly.

"Ah!" Aniya covered her mouth.

"That young man, he chose to sacrifice his companion. In front of the rainbow gem, he lost all his reason and conscience. He thought that his companion could be found again, but the chance to get the rainbow gem was extremely rare. Therefore, he felt that using three A human life in exchange for rainbow gems is a free deal, so I accepted it without hesitation." The gem guard said quietly.

Lin Tianlang was silent, and the three women next to him were also silent.

"What happened next? You said that the seal could be opened by sacrificing the lives of your companions. He also did the same. Why didn't he get the gem?" Lin Tianlang asked, but in fact, when he asked this question, he already had it in his mind. He had the answer, but he still wanted to hear the official explanation from the Gem Guard.

"He did do it. After the sacrificial ceremony started, the young man's three companions lay on the stone platform, and their life force was absorbed by the altar. However, the seal was not lifted, but the young man was affected by a powerful force. Suppress." The gem guard said slowly.

"Sacrificing the lives of your companions in exchange for lifting the seal is just a lie and a test. Do you know why you are asked to donate blood before entering the stone gate? The blood sacrificial array is connected to the altar. After the brave man has donated his blood, other The bloodline will be temporarily connected to the altar."

"Injecting the power of life into the altar will not lift the seal, but will strengthen the seal in a short period of time. At the same time, because the bloodline of the hero is connected to the altar, after the seal power of the altar is strengthened, part of the seal power will also be strengthened. It will be transmitted to the brave, causing the brave’s power to be greatly weakened.”

The gem guard calmly recounted this shocking fact.

Lin Tianlang was so surprised that he was speechless.

In other words, there are never two options from beginning to end. Regardless of whether you choose to sacrifice your companions or not, you still have to defeat the gem guard to get the gem fragments. However, if you choose to sacrifice, your own power will be suppressed by the seal, greatly reducing the already low chance of winning.

"The power of the rainbow gem is surging and awe-inspiring. But people who are willing to abandon their conscience in order to obtain it are not worthy of possessing the rainbow gem. If such a person obtains the gem, it will only be a disaster." The gem guard said lightly.

"What happened to that young man?" Lin Tianlang asked eagerly.

"I didn't kill him. He escaped from the underground palace. His whereabouts and life or death are unknown." The gem guard replied.

"Is that so..." Lin Tianlang lowered his head and did not ask any further questions.

"What about his companion? Did he die like this?" Xu Weiwei asked.

"Yes, he got nothing and killed three of his companions in vain. This is the price he paid for his greed and stupidity." The gem guard said slowly.

"The three poor companions of that young man did nothing wrong, but they lost their lives because of the mistakes made by the young man alone."

Silence fell in the air again. If Lin Tianlang had not made the right choice, everything that happened today would be a replica of the story told by the gem guard.

"The rainbow gem can only be handed over to the hands of those who are truly qualified to possess it." The gem guard continued, his eyes returning to Lin Sirius.

"Lin Tianlang, you have broken through many agencies and blockades, which proves your courage; being able to get out of the dark maze proves your wisdom; being able to open the stone door proves that you will not be stingy with things that should be given away; and your Rejection has also made your conscience stand the test; fighting me for several rounds without losing proves your extraordinary strength..." The gem guard kept counting, making Lin Tianlang feel a little embarrassed. .

"So, you passed the final trial of Atlanton and are qualified to become the new owner of the Frost Rainbow Gem."

"This is the entire truth of the underground palace." The gem guard looked into Lin Tianlang's eyes and said word by word: "Now, it is yours."

The gem guard showed the gem fragment in his hand in front of Lin Tianlang, just within his reach.
