Overturned Tower

Page 166

"The path of anger is not the path that can reach the tower of the end. Its end point is the 'fountain of rage'. These liquids gushed out from there, forming a 'river of blood'. It washed down from the 'cliff of frustration', Fall into the 'Pain Furnace'.

"As it continues to flow downstream, it gradually loses its bright red color...and eventually turns into boiling soup. If you fall into this, and if you are lucky enough not to go crazy, you will also be washed back into the boiling soup area. "

"It turns out that these two areas are connected together..."

The barber was stunned.

He still remembered that area, which was already relatively close to the entrance.

It looked like a huge hot spring area.

Its water level is not high... In other words, no matter who comes down, it will be submerged to the chest.

Yes, the 1.7-meter-six barber and the 1.9-meter-six strangler were both submerged to the chest...

The barber can only say that things in the dream world don't seem to be so clear...it's not so logical.

If you keep your mind calm, it is just ordinary "slightly hot" hot water, and it can even be used as a hot spring bath.

But just soaking in it, the mood will gradually become anxious.Over time, annoying phantoms can also appear.

But once you really get angry, the temperature of the water you feel will increase rapidly, and eventually it will even turn into boiling water.Even if it calms down again, the water temperature will not drop.

You can achieve a stew of cat soup.

Oh, and now it's bird broth, that's fine.

And in that area, if you stay for a long time, shadows will still appear.

Barbers can't even imagine how to fight the shadows in that environment.

... Fortunately, they ran fast enough.Before they were cooked, before the shadows appeared, they went to the next area.

"From the boiling soup down, the water temperature drops further, and it turns into a raging tide. Although we didn't come all the way in a straight line, the areas of this line are logically connected to each other in the dream world."

"Don't come here directly, it's to get the keys to other paths."

The barber nodded: "There are also countermeasure spells... I understand."

To enter the Furnace of Pain, after all, four other spells that do not belong to the Way of Wrath are needed.

And without the experience of temperance and the protection of spells, it would be very difficult for him to survive the boiling water:

The "certification" obtained from the "Heart Lake" is a meditation spell that can keep oneself calm and free from wild thoughts without violent actions.

This spell is really useless. It seems that the biggest effect is to be able to sleep faster and not to lie in bed and think about it.

But in fact, this spell can be specially used to counter "boiling soup".

Among the areas that will be encountered in the early stage, boiling soup can also be regarded as the most difficult batch.Its main difficulty is that once the temperature rises, it does not fall.

And the dream world doesn't talk about turning back and doing the right thing.After entering the boiling soup, it is difficult to leave here.

But once the mood becomes agitated, it is easier to get angry in the phantom.

Without a mentor to guide the way, it would be extremely difficult to survive the almost infinite dream world.

"If you still plan to continue on the path of anger, you can collect the certifications of the path of 'Pain', the path of 'Despair' and the path of 'Madness', and then you can open the door of [The Cliff of Frustration]."

Strangling said in a deep voice: "The 'crazy' and 'despair' are relatively rare areas in the first half of the dream world, but they are just at the door of the furnace of pain. You just need to find the location of the path of pain.

"After you handed over the first four 'Wrath' path certifications, you have already opened the permissions of [Mountain of Madness] and [Sea of Despair]. As long as you want to go, you can go directly from the furnace of pain."

"That's why they are connected together..."

The barber nodded thoughtfully.

Just like the duck with scallions comes with scallions?

Chapter 26 终乡

The barber doesn't even know how far he has come.

But he could only hear the tinkling of iron and the sound of quenching became more and more clear in his ears - it was only after he got closer that he realized that it was the sound of quenching.

Finally, they saw a cave in the rock.

Surprisingly, there is no white fog here... Entering from here, the field of vision becomes wider.

At least if you look up, you can see the top floor of the cave that is at least seven or eight meters high.It also has bright red lines of the same color as the "River of Anger" on its inner side, and it is these bright red luminous lines that provide the light source.

"The front is where the mentor is."

Strangling lowered his voice subconsciously, and his back became even more hunched.

Frightened by his attitude, the barber also lowered his voice: "Is your mentor the only disciple?"

"Counting you, there are two..."

Hang Kill whispered, "There aren't many mages in the new generation."

"But the seven empty islands add up to dozens of people."

"Two months ago there were 70 to [-] people, and the number has gradually increased recently."

None of the seventy students belonged to the same school.

It seems that the profession of the melting pot school is really not very popular.

"Speaking of which, you haven't told me...how should I call my mentor?"

"Just call him the tutor. The tutor never told me what his name is."

While whispering to each other, the two students finally approached the position where the mentor of the Forge School was.

It was an old man who looked quite short, only less than 1.5 meters.

He has lost all his hair, not even body hair such as eyebrows.

He was shirtless, with a dark yellow lizard tail behind him.The lower body is wearing very loose trousers that even drag the trouser legs to the floor.

His skin glowed with a faint metallic brilliance, and he was holding a huge hammer that didn't match his figure.

It was a ferocious hammer entwined with metal thorns and full of needles.The height of the hammer was one meter high, and a dark red light shone inside the hammer, which was densely entwined with metal thorns.

Just looking at the hammer made the barber feel a tingling pain in his heart.

And the thing that was beaten by the old man...

It was an extremely slow beating heart!

The heart was wrinkled and even looked ugly.It is covered with dark red luminescent lines, and the body has turned almost carbon-like black.

The moment he saw this mentor, the barber's face froze slightly.

There were pale flames crackling uncontrollably at the bottom of his pupils... but that was only for a moment.

Russell immediately replaced him, forcibly suppressing the psionic power induced by the vessel of God.

He himself cannot use the psionic power of his body when he becomes someone else, but the container of God is not subject to this restriction.That's why he can transform again at will...

But Xiao Liuli and Paradise Bird's experience told Russell... When he resonates, the other party also feels the same.

Even the memories seen by both parties are exactly the same.

In order not to offend the other party, Russell immediately forcibly got on the number and kicked down the container of God.It also interrupted the uncontrollable and intense psionic energy by the way.

For some reason, Hang Sha suddenly felt a subtle change in the temperament of the barber around him.

...like becoming a little more cautious?

"laugh--"

The old man stretched out his hand and held the heart.

Afterwards, he directly submerged it in the river of wrath.

There was a violent quenching sound, white smoke evaporated, and was drawn out to the outside along the vertical channel.

Russell suddenly understood everything.

It turned out that the white mist covering the whole world outside...was it the exhaust gas that evaporated when it was quenched with the river of anger?

"tutor."

Hang Hang bowed respectfully to the old man: "This is the younger brother I brought back, and his name is the barber."

The old man ignored the strangulation.

He just pulled his heart out of the river of anger.

He opened his big and small eyes and squinted to look at the heart.

The heart, which was originally as black as coal, became bright red again after being re-quenched.

The deep pulsating sound was like a subwoofer, and it could be clearly heard even ten meters away...it was even deafening.

Then, he grabbed his chest with his left hand and tore it open.

He put the heart back into his chest.

At that moment, Russell could see clearly...

His chest was completely empty!

In other words, he blacksmithed without a heart!

After the heart was placed in the chest cavity, the old man's skin suddenly turned red like heated metal.

Dark scales emerged.

Like blowing air, his whole body became huge, and the loose wrinkles on his body were completely filled with muscles, and even became swollen——

In the blink of an eye, the little old man who was less than 1.5 meters turned into a behemoth taller than strangulation.

But that's not exactly a human gesture...

His whole body is covered with black lizard scales, and his face has also turned into an anthropomorphic lizard face.There were bright red lines all over his skin, and there was a row of huge sharp protrusions on his back, which were suspected to be organs for heat dissipation, and white mist was constantly emitting.

With a huge tail dragging behind it, it looks like a smaller Godzilla at the moment.

"New, apprentice..."

A voice with a metallic sound and a deep echo sounded at the same time.

Just like cutting a blackboard with your fingernails, you feel uncomfortable just hearing the sound.

He leaned in front of Russell and sized him up with those emotionless dark golden pupils.

It was less than a punch away from Russell at this moment, and Russell could smell the sulfur clearly.

At that moment, Russell felt the intense fear of being stared at by a predator.His body couldn't control the instinct of his soulmate at all, and he couldn't help but groan.

"fear."

A deep voice sounded slowly: "Fear is a good thing.

"Fear is the fuel, it's the key..."

As the huge lizard head moved away from Russell, Russell's trembling gradually subsided.

But soon, the lizard's tail pushed Russell two steps from behind.

The young man with blue ponytail and long hair staggered two steps forward before standing firmly in front of the "mentor".

"You...why are you angry?"

The mentor's dark golden vertical pupils stared at Russell, and asked in a low voice.

"I'm angry at this unfair world."

This is the third time Russell has answered this question.

Hearing this, the lizard's head got closer to Russell.

He asked another question.
