Chapter 869 Trial
The 'Bone Prison' spell is the highest level among all the priest's control spells, and it also consumes the most death energy.
The reason why the giant horn priest didn't dare to continue to attack was because although he hit the transparent monster with two 'bone spears' just now, they didn't cause any damage to the transparent monster, at least he didn't see any damage.
So after he decisively used the 'Bone Prison', he accelerated towards the entrance of the ruins, and he no longer had the excitement of seeing the transparent monster under the 'aging' curse.
The solid 'Bone Prison' was like a cage surrounding the transparent monster. The giant-horned priest who was running didn't look back, but he also heard a loud noise, followed by the familiar sound of bones breaking.
He knew that was the sound of the 'Bone Prison' shattering. How long had it been? Before it lasted even a second, the magical cage of the 'Bone Prison' was broken.
The half-elf Leon had already arrived at the center of the lake. Without hesitation, he jumped directly to the center of the lake. There seemed to be nothing special there, but when he jumped in, a vortex appeared that sucked him in and disappeared.
"Wizard Abel, pay attention to the point you jumped into, don't make a mistake!" the barbarian Fitch reminded loudly, he also roared, jumped up, and then fell into the vortex.
Abel was a little hesitant, but soon he decided to jump in too. Just now, the half-elf Leon and the barbarian Fitch jumped in, indicating that this entrance is not dangerous.
And he can't wait for the giant horn priest to enter first, he is worried about the giant horn priest, or he can't fully trust the priest.
In a flash of white light, he 'teleported' appeared in the center of the lake, and then a vortex appeared under his feet, and he felt a suction force coming, and his body was sucked involuntarily.
In the process of inhaling, he also couldn't help sighing, the application of the magic circle by the owner of this ancient ruin is really unimaginable, such a weird teleportation circle can be arranged on the water surface.
When he appeared again, he was already in a huge space.
It was like a huge colosseum, with the half-elf Leon and the barbarian Feiqu standing beside him, and the three of them stood in the center of the entire oval-shaped huge space.
Above his head, whether it was a formation or some other method, Abel saw a map of the starry sky, with countless small stars covering the entire top of the space.
Although the light of a single star is not strong, the gathering of these invisible stars illuminates the entire space.
In a huge space like a Colosseum,
The ground around Abel is flat, nothing can be seen, and the ground is very hard. According to his feeling, it should be made of the hardest stone material used.
And around the oval square are seats. In his opinion, this place should be used for performances, and those seats are stands.
It's just that there is no life on those stands now, and he is standing at the performance place, but he doesn't know what will happen next.
However, Abel's eyes saw an upward step in the center of the stand. This is the only step above the stand in the entire oval square. The step leads to a building above the stand.
This building is not as rough as the surrounding stands. The building is also made of stone blocks, but the surface of these stone blocks is carved with various patterns.
"Wizard Abel, there will be a trial beast in one minute. We have to defeat the trial beast to get rewards. If we lose to the trial beast, you must pay attention to this!" Half-elf Leon pointed at the stones under his feet Said.
Abel saw a small magic circle above the ground. Although the magic circle was small, its structure was extremely complicated. Anyway, as a rookie who didn't know much about magic circles, he couldn't figure out the function of the magic circle.
"This is the evacuation circle. If you lose to the test beast, you only need to activate this circle with your mental power, and you will be thrown out of the ruins!" The half-elf Leon continued to explain.
"According to our guess, this place should be a colosseum. The passage we entered is a passage for the entrance of the beasts. It is possible that there was a special person here to put the beasts in from the outside, and built a method leading to the passage here. Formation." The barbarian Fitch added on the side.
"Why hasn't the horned priest come in yet?" Abel asked strangely.
You must know that when they came in, the giant horn priest was not far from the entrance.
Just when Abel asked, he saw a big-horned priest appearing beside everyone in a panic.
The horned priest who appeared seemed to be in a bad mood. Just when he was about to come in, the transparent monster suddenly accelerated and almost hit him. If he hadn't blocked a 'Steel Stone Demon' in front of him , he couldn't enter here at all.
That's it, the fragments of the 'Steel Stone Demon' exploded by the transparent monster also caused some damage to him, and his sacrificial robe was also damaged.
If 'clay golem' and 'skeleton' are consumable summons, then 'steel goblin' is a very precious summon.
Because each priest can only have one 'Steel Goblin', in order to ensure that the 'Steel Goblin' is strong enough, each priest will purchase the most powerful steel weapon as a summoning material.
And the 'Steel Stone Demon' of the Great Horn Priest was summoned by him using the best weapon he could find, which he bought for a thousand intermediate magic stones.
But such an expensive 'Steel Stone Demon' was shattered by the transparent monster. While feeling sorry for the thousand intermediate magic stones, he had a clearer understanding of the transparent monster's attack power.
If he knew that the transparent monster had such a powerful attack power, it was really hard to say whether he would dare to explore this ruin.
"Wizard Abel, last time we had seven companions, only the three of us left. You must be careful." The barbarian Fitch said in a deep voice.
He wanted to say this sentence a long time ago, but the giant horn priest has never allowed him to tell the truth, and before that, he signed a confidentiality contract with the giant horn priest, unless he entered the ruins, he could not tell the truth about the ruins Entrance and anything about the ruins.
This is also the reason why Abel asked about the ruins along the way, and all the answers were answered by the giant horn priest.
Abel's face darkened, seven companions entered and only three escaped in the end, so the degree of danger here is very high.
The Great Horn Priest did not say that this adventure would be so dangerous when he invited him. The Great Horn Priest lied to himself, and he could see that there seemed to be some reason for both the barbarian Feiqu and the half-elf Leon. Tell yourself ahead of time what's going on here.
Abel didn't know that he was a novice adventurer. He didn't know that an adventure contract was required to be signed when the Central Continent adventure team was formed. This adventure contract stipulated the behavior of both parties during the adventure.
And the thing that hurt each other in the adventure that Abel fears most, if he signed the contract, this kind of thing would never happen.
"Wizard Abel, the danger doesn't come from here. We didn't defeat the trial beast here last time, so we chose to leave. When we left, an unknown creature attacked us. This is the loss of our four teammates. Now that I think about it, it should be the transparent monster outside!" Leon, the half-elf, hurriedly explained when he saw Abel's expression.
Their last loss taught them a lesson, so they brought enough 'teleportation' spell scrolls this time, as long as they used the 'teleportation' scrolls to speed up when leaving, they would not be attacked.
"Are you sure that transparent monster won't enter the ruins just now?" Abel asked in a deep voice.
Abel's words surprised them all, and they looked around immediately, but found nothing, but the atmosphere became tense at this moment.
"Can the stands around here go up?" Abel asked again.
"No, we tried it. There is a shield between here and the stands. This shield is very strong. Last time our multi-person attack couldn't have any effect." The half-elf Leon replied in a deep voice.
"War Commander Spirit, is there a spirit similar to yours here?" Abel ignored them. He connected his spiritual power to the elder's identity card and asked the War Commander Spirit.
"Your Excellency, this is the Colosseum. The spirit here is not very intelligent, but just an ordinary spirit!" The war command spirit replied.
"You know this Colosseum, what's the danger here?" Abel's eyes lit up when he heard the answer from the War Commander, he didn't expect that the War Commander knew about it, so he hurriedly asked.
"Your Excellency, the Colosseum is the place to settle disputes. When there is a conflict between two strong men, the war between the strong is likely to damage a large area, so they will choose to choose their own beasts to enter here. The battle will ultimately determine the winner, and there will be a large number of bystanders during the beast fight, and the Colosseum earns profits by buying the winners from the bystanders!" The war commander explained.
Abel shook his head involuntarily. Gambling existed no matter what time period it was.
"The danger here mainly comes from the guardian creatures here, and the guardian creatures here keep this place from being violated!" The war commander continued.
"War Commander, what would happen if we appeared in the center of the Colosseum if there were no Colosseum?" Abel asked again.
"Defeat the trial beast, so that you can get the reward you deserve and leave safely. If you don't defeat the trial beast, you will be chased and killed by the guardian creatures!" The war commander replied.
Abel now understands why they were chased and killed by the guardian creatures last time the Great Horn Priests sacrificed. It turned out that it was the reason for their failure in the trial.
His heart was relieved, and after knowing everything here, he no longer had the fear of the unknown.
And he guessed that there must be something wrong with the guardian creature here, or that its ability has declined after a long time. Otherwise, the strength of the ancient guardian creature, how could it be possible for the giant horn priest to escape them.
Just as Abel was thinking, there was a harsh grinding sound.
"It's about to start, Wizard Abel, you'd better summon Johnson!" the Great Horn Priest shouted.
The reason why he brought Abel here is because Abel has a strong defense and attack.
Abel nodded, clapped his hands on his chest, and a huge black hole appeared, and then Johnson walked out of the black hole. As soon as he came out, Johnson bowed and saluted him.
"Johnson, prepare to fight!" Abel said in a deep voice.
Johnson immediately switched his body and took a fighting pose.
The sound under the ground became louder and louder, and then the stone ground began to move, and four holes appeared in the four corners of the Colosseum.
Then gigantic puppet beasts appeared from the entrance of the cave. Perhaps only the puppet beasts could still fight after such a long time.
In the end, Abel counted, and there were a total of 20 puppets with a height of six meters. These puppets were all made of steel. No wonder they were unable to defeat the previous entry.
According to his estimate, these puppets are much stronger than those of the dwarves. He saw a lot of various patterns on the puppets. These are not decorative patterns, but various magic circle patterns.
"Let's fight!" The giant horn priest yelled. He took out a bunch of beast corpses, and then summoned eight 'skeletons' from the corpses, and summoned the 'clay stone demon' from the ground.
The half-elf Leon also summoned the 'Oak Wise Man', and then he summoned a dire wolf. His dire wolf was not for fighting, it was just his mount.
Seeing that his companions were getting ready, the barbarian Fitch yelled twice, and blessed everyone with a 'shouting' and a 'combat system'.
"Sorcerer Abel, our spells can only assist the attack, and cannot cause direct damage to these test beasts. It all depends on Johnson!" the giant horn priest said in a deep voice.
Abel had already developed a dislike for the Great Horn Priest in his heart. He was almost the only way to get here safely all this way, but the Great Horn Priest never mentioned any important matters to him, and only now did he tell the truth.
Perhaps it was a mistake to take risks with the Great Horn Priest, and Abel thought of the agreement with the Great Horn Priest to get the spoils according to their respective contributions, and decided in his heart that he would not give up on the distribution of the spoils.
But I learned from the war commanding spirit that this is just an arena, and I'm afraid there won't be any good things left except for testing the puppet beasts.
Twenty puppets started to move towards Abel and the others. It seemed a little slow at first, but soon their speed became faster than that of ordinary speed spirit beasts.
"You protect yourselves!" Abel's voice was a little cold, his figure disappeared in place, and then appeared on Johnson's shoulder.
"Giant Horn, you should have told Wizard Abel about the situation here earlier, or we would lose this companion!" the half-elf Leon said in a deep voice.
But the barbarian Fitch remained silent. He had already decided that this adventure was over, and he would leave the horn priest and the adventure team of the horn priest, because what the horn priest had done had deviated from his nature.
"If you tell him the truth, will he be willing to help us?" the giant horn priest said with a sneer.
He didn't tell the two companions that Abel didn't sign the contract because he had more plans.
