Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

Irel was thin, but not frail. To Shevi, he could even be considered strong and powerful.

Holding Yrel face to face, Shevi knelt on one knee, straightened up and gently patted his back, just like Thrall usually did when he coaxed him to sleep, trying to comfort his brother whose mental state was not very stable.

The rubber boat drifted slowly in the light golden water. In Shevi's arms, Iriel gradually calmed down. But as the light golden water surface became wider and wider, his consciousness became more and more blurred.

Irel tried his best to stay awake and told Xie Wei: "The restrictions of the ruins are putting pressure on me, don't be afraid..."

As a result, he fell into a deep sleep before he could finish his words. Iriel was a magician who specialized in mental magic. This kind of restriction that made people fall into a coma could wake him up again as long as he was given time.

He wanted to tell Xie Wei not to be afraid and to wait for him for a while, he would wake up soon...

Looking at Irel who had fallen into deep sleep, Xie Wei was not as panicked this time. He let Irel lie in the rubber boat. Worried that he would be cold, he also took a thick cloak and covered him with it.

After doing all this, Xie Wei looked around at the darkness and listened carefully to the voice that had suddenly started calling his name again.

As the voice became clearer and clearer, the darkness around them began to dissipate like thick fog. Bright light descended from the sky, and a giant arch formed by countless roots appeared in the light golden water.

The rubber boat slowly approached the arch, but was stopped by an invisible obstacle two meters away from the arch.

The light golden water flow began to recede, and the rubber boat ran aground on the uneven stone slabs. Eight doors composed of water flow slowly formed at the junction of the stone slabs and the light golden water flow. With the appearance of the doors, a light golden ball of light fell on the rubber boat out of thin air.

The ball of light was about the size of a palm. After landing on the rubber boat, it rolled twice and then turned into a little man with hands and feet, a three-headed little man who looked pretty cool and carried a sword on his back.

Xie Wei sat next to Irel, holding the dagger given to him by Roland and looking at the little man. Half a minute later, the little man with light golden hair spoke to break the silence.

"Holder of the secret realm key, you shouldn't bring outsiders here."

"Sorry, I didn't mean it." Although he didn't understand what was going on, Xie Wei apologized honestly after hearing what the villain said.

"...Oh, it's okay, I know you didn't mean it." The villain scratched his braids, and his originally cool expression softened a little, and then he continued.

"I am the spirit of the sage Dagambi, your trial guide. If you want to enter the secret realm, you must pass the trial first. There are eight doors there. Choose one and go in. I will follow you to complete the trial."

As soon as the light golden man finished speaking, Xie Wei heard the system's prompt sound: [Complete the trial of the Dagambi Secret Gate to earn points].

integral!

Xie Wei thought he had heard it wrong. He opened the system panel and confirmed it three times before he believed that what he heard was really the points!

This is an unprecedentedly huge amount of task points!

Although he was somewhat excited, he did not forget about Yrel and Thrall who were in a deep sleep.

As if noticing Xie Wei's hesitation, the golden man flew in front of Xie Wei and reminded him.

"Everyone only has one chance. If you don't want to participate in the trial now, you have to return the secret realm key when you leave here. You will not be able to enter the Dagambi Secret Realm again. You'd better not give up this trial."

"What is the content of the trial?" Xie Wei actually had no intention of giving up the trial. After all, that was about points. He was just thinking about how to place Yrel, and was a little worried that Thrall would be anxious if he couldn't find him when he woke up.

"No matter how long it takes you to pass the trial, the time here will not change. You don't have to worry about your companions." The golden man did not answer Xie Wei's question, but pointed to the eight doors not far away.

"Even if you stay there for more than ten years, you will still return to the present time point, and nothing will change, and you can't change anything."

Xie Wei listened to these words and always felt that the last sentence seemed to have a hidden meaning.

He thought about it and asked again.

"Will there be any danger?"

"Maybe, but don't worry. No matter what happens, you will come back here and leave the ruins with your companions."

"So what does it take to pass the trial? Do you have to complete a task?"

"I can't answer you." After saying this, Dagambie's soul turned back into a golden ball.

Turning around and covering the sleeping Iriel with another cloak, Xie Wei got up and left the rubber boat, then looked at the eight doors not far away. He chose the third door on the left and entered that door without hesitation.

Dagambi's soul followed him, but Xie Wei didn't notice it. Dagambi, who had turned into a golden man again, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
