Chapter 1,746: Competition, Competition

"Oh, that's it, that's the mark."

After a few days of wandering, we finally arrived at the door of a Horadric tomb. Looking at the pinwheel-shaped mark carved on a huge stone pillar next to it, I remembered something and shouted excitedly.

Although my memory is not very good, I still vaguely remember that when Dia and I came to the ancient tomb for the first time, we entered the ancient tomb marked by a windmill. There are many Horadric tombs, each of which

The tombs all have unique marks. If you enter the wrong place, you can only use the scroll to return to the city and search again.

It can be seen that we have completely found the right path. Under Ben Druid's wise guidance, no matter it was eight years ago or now, there has not been a single mistake. Tremble, mortals, in Ben Druid's maze.

In front of the killer’s nickname, hahahaha!!!

"Hey, hey, don't ignore me. How about at least giving me some applause?"

Standing in front of the stone pillar marked by the windmill with a gesture of hard work, wiping the non-existent sweat of hard work on my forehead, feeling satisfied and proud, I found two princess girls passing by without saying a word.

Entered the ancient tomb.

"You can continue to satisfy yourself here, Lu Chi Wu." Beiya waved her hand without looking back and stepped into the ancient tomb first.

"This arrogant little girl." I said disdainfully.

Now, I feel a little regretful. I regret why I had to find something to do and help Arturia train Bea, hoping to turn her into a qualified rookie adventurer.

It's not a failure, it's a success, and it was very successful. This little girl is usually quite timid. It is said that after hearing the scary stories, she was so scared that she dared not sleep at night, and even wet the bed a few years ago.

Such a little girl seems to be very talented only in combat experience. Those boring ghost stories can scare her to death, but the blood and flesh splattering in front of her and the piles of bones have no deterrent effect on her.

I can only feel sick and disgusted.

Should I say she is a born violent person or what? In short, she is a silly princess that cannot be described in words.

As a result, after a few days of practice, even she could feel that she was improving moment by moment. After that, the little girl's self-confidence was soaring. Her strength had not improved much, but her posture was like that of an unparalleled master.

He looks like a master.

She didn't want to think about it, who was so far away, at a distance that she couldn't detect, who silently reduced a large group of monsters to death, destroyed the corpses and disappeared, and controlled it within the range she could accept.

I thought that in this Horadric Desert, which is known as the most dangerous in the Western Kingdom, there are at most a dozen or twenty monsters gathered together.

This nanny is really unhappy.

Following the two little girls, I entered the ancient tomb. I looked around and was immersed in the simple and spectacular scenery of the pyramid style of the desert tomb. The tall and solid walls were entirely made of neat rectangles, weighing more than a ton.

Of course, due to the different levels of military force, it cannot be said that these ancient tombs are made of the sweat of countless people or even the accumulation of corpses.

On the stone wall, there is a magic torch every hundred meters, illuminating the wide and deep passage, and some blurred murals on the wall can be vaguely seen.

Wait, from the very beginning when I entered, I felt a sense of dissonance. What on earth is going on?

I looked at Tia in confusion: "Tia, it doesn't seem right."

He stretched out his hands and compared the width between the walls.

"Although I don't remember very clearly, when we came here, was the passage so wide?".

"Hey, hey, did you find it?" The little girl smiled brightly at me.

"No, it's almost twice as big now as when I came here."

"Why is this happening?"

"Of course it is for the convenience of fighting. If the place is too small, it will be too dangerous for adventurers and it will not be enough to use their fists and kicks, so it must be expanded using space magic." Tia said matter-of-factly.

"The ancient tombs were not originally built for the purpose of practicing battles in them, so naturally we would not consider these, but we had to consider it, so it took several years to reluctantly expand the seven ancient tombs using space magic and transform them into

It becomes an area suitable for experience.”

As the little girl Tia said this, a hint of physical pain flashed across her face, which always had a energetic smile.

"In order to attract customers...ahem, I'm an adventurer. I have no choice. I can't do it without doing it."

"In this case..." I touched my chin thoughtfully.

"Could it be that... other ancient tombs are similar to this?"

"Well, as long as it is a place suitable for adventurers to experience, we will spare no effort to create a corresponding environment." Tia nodded and pointed to the depths of the ancient tomb.

"For example, Duriel, it is true that it was originally in this ancient tomb. However, in order to increase the difficulty for adventurers, according to Grandpa, it is to give them a [surprise], we specially found the ancient tomb cave where Duriel was reborn.

Here, some magic circles are set up to randomly appear among the seven existing ancient tombs. Of course, some tips will also be given to prevent adventurers from visiting too many ancient tombs and wasting too much time... cough

Well, that’s what it’s all about anyway.”

"Your grandpa is really... really dark." I opened my eyes wide and said in disbelief.

Is it true that Duriel's projection has been damaged? Don't you worry that Duriel's real body will notice that your own projection has been played with in this way? If you are unhappy, just like Belial did to me back then, try your best to

The huge loss of the body will also pass through the barriers of many worlds, and the power will come to the projection to teach you a lesson?

"There is no way. Grandpa has now got into money, saying that if the adventurers stay a little longer, we will have more prosperity." Tia shrugged helplessly.

Then again, from this inference, the prison tombs and other things that I ran through before were not originally made for people to experience and use. Could it be said that the alliance has also carried out space expansion? For the tribe... ahem, no.

, for the alliance’s adventurers to gain better experience and improve themselves?

Hmm, no wonder the old drunkard was so angry when he destroyed the wall in the prison cell in the camp, as if he had lost his wallet.

Perhaps, this is the reason why even the elves with the deepest knowledge have to admit that the five major areas planned by the alliance are the most suitable areas for adventurers to experience and improve. The alliance has spent thousands of years of management for this, and the hardships and difficulties involved

, there is really no way to describe it in words.

"You two, stop talking all the time. Are you here to practice or to chat? Cheer up your highness and concentrate!" Beiya, who was walking in the front, became unhappy as she listened and turned around to complain.

road.

It’s really interesting. Even though I complained a few days ago that she was just out for a ride or to practice, I didn’t expect this little girl to put her knowledge to use so quickly.

"For you, it is a serious experience and you must treat it well, but for Tia and I, it is no different from going for a walk. Little girl, do you understand?" I chuckled and shouted at each other provocatively.

Blinked.

"Don't be too proud. Isn't it just because of your high level? If you are the same as my Highness, I don't know who is more powerful." Beiya, who was full of confidence, made a shocking declaration.

"Oh?" I looked at her curiously.

"Would you like to compete? You two, control your strength to the same level as me, and see who can kill more monsters." Sure enough, this idiot princess did not disappoint me, and declared a challenge proudly.

.

Originally, I had no interest in such a challenge. It was like an elephant competing with a caterpillar in strength. Even if I won, there would be no sense of achievement and I would just feel bored.

However, this little girl seems to feel too good about herself recently, thinking that apart from her level, there is not much difference between herself and the masters.

This cannot continue like this. She must see why a strong person is called a strong person. She must move forward step by step with a humble attitude.

"I'd better forget it, let's compete between Beiya and Fanfan." Dia's smile was a little weird, and she looked at Beiya with hidden pity. "Okay, I will reluctantly give it a try with you." I nodded with a smile.

.

"Your Highness is the one who is reluctant to do so." She shook her fist at me with a smile. Suddenly, she remembered something and added.

"In addition to controlling your strength, you are also not allowed to use skills above level three."

"no problem."

"You are not allowed to use summoning skills." Knowing how powerful Xiaoxue and the others were, little girl Beiya didn't forget to ban this too.

"No problem, I also have a condition, that is, I am not allowed to run around. I have to compete on the route prescribed by Tia, and I can't go too far away."

I also added one, and by then I had snatched all the monsters. The little girl was so angry that she wanted to leave me and take another route alone. I didn't have the free time to accompany her.

"Okay." After thinking about it seriously, Beiya thought there was nothing wrong, and nodded her head hard.

"But you also have to return that longbow to me."

"No problem." I smiled even more happily, so what if I really give you a magic weapon.

"The competition officially begins!" After the order, Beiya and I did not take action immediately, but continued to move forward slowly, with intrigue and conspiracy smiles on our faces.

I have to say that although Beya is very impulsive and a little ignorant, she is not too stupid and has almost eliminated most of the prohibitions that I have to her advantage.

In terms of combat experience, she certainly knows that she is not as good as me, but in this kind of competition, experience [doesn't seem] to be very important. The most important thing is that she has a huge advantage over me.

That is, she is a long-range attack. As soon as a monster appears, she will naturally have the priority to attack. After a few arrows are fired, when I use my strength to rush to the battlefield and bring the monster into my attack range, those

It is conceivable how many monsters are left under her ferocious five-hole long bow.

Beya probably had this idea in mind. It has to be said that in theory, for a young adventurer like her who still has a new horizon, this plan is very feasible.

It's a pity... After all, it's just a script written by a frog in a well.

Smiling all the way, the three of them kept walking forward, passing through dark and deep ancient tomb corridors, turning complicated corners, and opening a series of unusually hidden mechanical stone doors that were almost integrated with the walls.

"It's strange, why haven't we met a single monster?" As she walked, the little girl realized that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, after entering the ancient tomb for such a long time, you should have encountered a monster long ago.

"Could it be that...we've been wandering around the same place? Hey, Tia, there's nothing wrong with your route, right?" Thinking of this possibility, the little girl turned back and cast a doubtful look at Tia.

"Absolutely no problem. This is my own ancient tomb. How could it be wrong? If you don't believe it... you can take a look at this."

As she said that, Tia took out a huge map, which was winding and full of dazzling fine lines. It looked like a... It looked like a natural maze.
To be continued...
