Sylutia is now staying in front of a new fork, and the patterns on both sides reveal what will be encountered next.
One side is [Shield], the other side is [Two-Headed Stork].
After thinking about it, Sylutia guessed that the side of the shield might be a card that gave armor or defense, but she didn't need these now. Instead, she was interested in the "Two-Headed Stork" side.
After choosing, she walked towards the side of "Two-Headed Stork".
Not long after she advanced, she came to a new room. As soon as she walked in, the stone door behind her lowered and closed, and then a stone platform rose from the ground. There was a pattern of Two-Headed Stork on the stone platform. On one side, under the stork's head, there was an empty card. There are card grooves, but there are no cards stored in them. When Sylutia placed his hand on the stone platform, the newly acquired [Killing Fist] in Fate Disk felt like it was about to fall off.
This should be the place to remove the card, Sylutia suddenly understood.
She thought for a while, let go of the restriction on that card, and then [Killing Fist] left her body and fell into the groove on the stone platform.
Then the Two-Headed Stork glowed in black and white, and then the pattern on the stone platform flipped over, revealing the same pattern on the other side of the bottom, but the difference was that there was an extra card under the head of another stork.
The card depicts a butterfly sucking nectar, and its body seems to have pale gold veins of the same color as the nectar.
[Sealed Card·Honey Fragrance Breathing Technique](Insect Moth): Use nectar to enhance yourself. (Other information needs further exploration)
This... looking at the green card in front of him, Sylutia took it into his hand and observed it carefully.
As if there was no danger, she tried to put the card into Fate Disk, and then a strange desire arose from the bottom of her heart, which was the desire for sweet juice.
He took out the sweet nectar that he had previously reserved from Courtyard, Sylutia took a small sip, and then closed his eyes to feel it.
After the sweetness rich in "Emerald Nectar" Aspect Power entered the body, it was quickly absorbed, and then converted into a strange power in the blood, and then circulated along the body, making her body extremely light and flexible, and her sense of touch became particularly keen.
It probably means that you can feel the clear sliding of airflow with your fingertips, and you can flexibly detect any disturbing changes in airflow and then react.
Compared with the traditional Breathing Technique, after absorbing nectar, this Breathing Technique can lighten the body and increase speed and perception. If the general Breathing Technique can temporarily increase the reaction power and speed by 30%, it can increase the reaction power and speed by 50% and gain additional tactile perception.
The effect is very good. After Sylutia has adapted, she feels that if she weighs herself now, her body is probably 20% lighter than before. If she masters some kind of flying ability, it can be expected that the effect will be even better.
This should be used in conjunction with the flying ability "Breathing Technique". Used alone on the ground, it cannot exert its full effect.
From this point of view, [Two-Headed Stork] means a trading card with unknown blessings and misfortunes.
After understanding this, she glanced at the stone platform where the [Killing Fist] card disappeared, then turned and left.
Although the card disappeared, she has recorded the detailed information in it with Picture Book. She only needs three copies of "Crimson Blood" to completely deduce the practice method, and it will not be difficult to learn it in the future.
After leaving here, Sylutia continues to move forward, and a room pattern representing a monster will appear in front of you.
It looks like there's going to be another fight, but it's just a good time to try out the power of the new cards.
She walked into it and began to challenge the awakening monster...
In other corners of the maze, a woman wrapped in a scarf squatted on the ground, checking the environment of the passage, and then cautiously stepped into a room. At this time, the sound of a mechanism sounded, and several crossbow arrows were shot out, Penetration where she had just been standing, and soon after, another round of crossbow arrows was shot out, chasing where she landed.
After all five waves of crossbow arrows were dodged, a stone platform rose up in the room, and a gray shield appeared inside.
[Gray Rhino Shield](Level 2·Excellence)
"Tsk, this shield is not suitable for me." She disliked the shield a little, but she couldn't bear to throw it away, so she took it in her hand and continued to move forward.
When she came to a new room, she saw the [Two-Headed Stork] pattern that Sylutia had experienced not long ago.
"Oh, you're lucky this time." She smiled excitedly, then put her hand on the Two-Headed Stork pattern, and placed a fake Distortion card inside.
This card is not a normal ability, but an ability card fabricated randomly in some way. It contains the chaotic "Distortion" Aspect Power. Its rank conforms to the characteristics of ordinary cards, but it is completely unusable.
After putting it in, Two-Headed Stork on the stone board flips over, revealing another card hidden at the bottom.
[Red-Tailed Bee Stinger](Insect Moth); The burst of poisonous sting can be used for life-threatening attacks.
"Another free card, hee hee." She proudly picked up the card and integrated it into herself, then a flash of red light flashed in her eyes, and the elbow of one arm extended and evolved into a special red stinger.
"The bee-tail needle is really suitable for me." She nodded with satisfaction and continued to move forward.
Except for Sylutia, several people in the other mazes gradually understood the functions of these rooms during the exploration process, and were also pleasantly surprised by the gains here. They used the temporarily obtained cards to strengthen themselves, defeated monsters along the way, and then obtained new gains, gradually immersing themselves in this special "Trial Game".
Of course, smart people among them began to discover many loopholes in this game. For example, after choosing one side of the fork, get what you want, and then quickly return to the other side of the fork to get the thing on the other side of the fork, or face an invincible monster, directly escape the room, go to the next passage, get rid of those monsters, use false cards at Two-Headed Stork where cards need to be exchanged, etc.
There is no penalty for exploiting these loopholes, and the extra profits are addictive. After tasting the benefits, many people start to try it, even if it involves a small risk.
The only exception is that the silver-haired girl has no intention of taking advantage of the loopholes, even if she finds that the rules here are not perfect.
"Although I don't know why this weird Mausoleum exists, but since the rules have been set, just follow them. There is no harm anyway." Sylutia, as a good boy, thought so.
When she passed a certain room again and got a dark red serrated scimitar weapon, a new room appeared in front of her. The pattern on it was an animal head that was enlarged several times, and flames were spitting out of its mouth.
After the door opened, the room here was five times larger than an ordinary room. When she entered, the door behind her lowered, sealing the escape route.
Soon, a huge scorpion with a brass metal shell climbed down from Sylutia's head. After it landed on the ground, the metal carapace rubbed and made a rapid shaking impact sound, which seemed to scare the girl and demonstrate its power.
[Brass Sand Scorpion] (Level 3·Insect Moth); The scorpion is covered in tough bronze armor and has huge pincers. When fighting, you need to be careful of the poisonous stinger on the rear of the tail.
Although it is also a third-level creature, it is the strongest third-level creature Sylutia has ever encountered, and it is several times more powerful than the "Lion-Headed Monster" he fought before.
Sylutia relied on the speed of "Nectar Breathing Technique" to flexibly avoid the front claws of the huge heavy hammer.
Stone chips flew into the air, Sylutia jumped into the air and wielded the dark red scimitar he had just obtained, cutting towards the brass-colored armor.
There were sizzling fireworks and sounds, and the serrated blade left light scratches on the carapace, but it was still unable to break through the defense.
After that, Sylutia switched several weapons, but even Sharpness's Radiant Gold blade could not cut through the Sturdiness's bronze armor defense.
Facing the girl's attack, the Sand Scorpion kept hitting with its front pincers and then took the opportunity to twitch its tail stinger to attack the dodging Sylutia.
If it weren't for her sharp reflexes and "Nectar Breathing Technique" giving her a stronger sense of touch and ability to change, she might have been hit by its attack.
The difficulty is getting higher, the girl thought to herself after trying several melee attacks to no avail.
It seems that it is difficult for her to defeat the opponent at the same level through physical means and direct strength competition. After all, this guy weighs five or six tons, and the bronze armor alone is Sturdiness extremely heavy.
In the "Emerald Nectar" state, her melee capabilities are quite limited, and if she switches to the "Fourth Level·Castle" Knight to deal with it, it will be a bit fussy, just like a high school student taking the junior high school exam.
She still remembered that the purpose of her expedition this time was to test the practical application scenarios of various abilities, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
Since the various abilities under "Emerald Nectar" are not easy to use here, let's change the way of playing.
Thinking of this, the light in Sylutia's eyes flickered, changing from "Emerald Nectar" to "Alien Star", then he closed his eyes slightly and opened them again.
Golden eyes appeared, and the majestic will Impact waved its giant claws in front of Sand Scorpion, causing it to freeze and fall to the ground.
Then purple eye pupil patterns appeared on the girl's side. Their rays of light converged, and many rays focused on the tail of Sand Scorpion, where they met at one point.
A bright light shone, and then the upright tail spines of Sand Scorpion were burned and broken, and fell to the ground.
Under the severe pain, Sand Scorpion broke free from [Eye of Majesty]'s control and waved its huge front claws again. However, the eyes of the girl in front of it changed color, and the overflowing purple made Sand Scorpion lose consciousness. She gradually lost the desire to fight and slowly lay down on the ground.
Although it is powerful, the carapace Sturdiness, as Insect Moth, does not have strong mental strength and will, and is easily conquered by this girl's magical pupil technique.
It doesn't seem to be that powerful, the girl thought, raising her finger to seal the giant Sand Scorpion in front of her.
In the room, signs of Sand Scorpion's life activities disappeared. Soon, the closed wall slowly opened, revealing the passage behind it.
You can see that at the end of the passage, there are three raised stone platforms, on which are placed [Potion Bottle], [Card], [Brass Pendant]
It seems that this is the reward for beating the level. Sylutia walked towards the three stone platforms out of curiosity.
