Chapter 3406 Cubes? Nonexistent

*************************************************** ***************************************

The bright sun as big as a basin scorches the sandy ground, and one step from the snowy grassland in winter to Lugaoyin has a polarized climate, which is no different from suddenly coming from the North Pole to the Antarctic.

Hmm...is there something wrong with this sentence? That’s all.

Not walking far, I took off my coat and sweater, leaving only a thin vest. I looked like an old man shaking a cattail leaf fan in the park to enjoy the coolness in the summer. It didn't matter, I was alone in Lu Gaoyin anyway. No one would see me like this.

I took out the water bottle from the inventory, took a big sip, raised my head and squinted at the scorching sun, and began to think about the next route.

If it were the beginning, when I first traveled to the Dark Continent, the condition for clearing the Western Kingdom was to defeat any three or more of the six mini-bosses entrenched in the desert.

I remember that these six mini-bosses seem to be the crawling appearance on the second floor of the stone tomb, the crazy bloody witch on the third floor of the Death Temple, the exploding beetle on the distant oasis, the sandworm queen on the third floor of the maggot nest, and the dark elder on the forgotten city. and the fang skin on the second floor of the Claw Temple.

Well, that's right, it seems that my memory is not beyond hope.

Of course, there is no need to do too many tasks. If you think you can do it, kill all six mini-bosses to show the strength of the team and get more equipment. It is also a pleasure for most adventurers, but it is rare. The team will do this not because they are not strong enough, but because these six mini-bosses are too difficult to find unless there are maze-type talents in the team.

Let’s just talk about the Sandworm Queen on the third floor of the Worm Lair. Any normal person would not want to enter the Worm Lair. It is dark, narrow, and secluded. The maze passages inside are even more complicated and full of dangers. It is really a thankless task.

Therefore, it may seem easy to kill more than three mini-bosses, but it is actually no easier than killing all the way from the Blood Wasteland to the fourth floor of the Dusk Cave to dance with Sister An in the Rogge area. At least in terms of time spent, perhaps the former is even easier. It takes a lot more, not to mention finding all six mini-bosses.

But please be clear, what I am playing now is speed running, not killing all bosses.

Originally, this was the only condition for clearance. However, since I discovered the Horadric tribe and brought them out of the closed desert center world and showed them to the world, there has been one more route to clear the Western Kingdom. Then Just go to the Tomb of Tarasha deep in the desert where the Horadric tribe is located, and kill Duriel's projection.

Suddenly I remembered that there is actually a second route to clearing the Rogge area, which is to go to the misty forest to kill Belial's projection. However, Belial's projection is unpredictable, and sometimes even disappears for no reason, showing that he is elusive and does not appear. Like Sister An, she will stay on the fourth floor of the Dusk Cave waiting for you to find her. In addition, this guy is good at mental attacks. It is the only move I am afraid of now, so I did not take this route.

Otherwise, I would be very happy to fuck Beryl again.

The topic has changed, and back to Lu Gaoyin, in terms of time, it is definitely faster to go to Gandu Riel. In terms of the degree of danger, it is definitely more dangerous to go to Gandu Riel. If you want to get rewards faster, just go to Gandu Riel. You have to pay more or take greater risks. Everyone knows the truth.

Let me choose, I will definitely go to Gandu Riel. As a person, the thing I am not afraid of the most is danger. Otherwise, how could I be nicknamed the little prince of Pig Tu Meng Jin?

However, now there is an important question.

I was able to go to the Horadric tribe because I found the retarded king at first... ah no, it was the king's staff. Then because of the king's staff, I found the viper amulet and the Horadric cube, and then I met Tara. Xia, after getting the information to go to the Horadric tribe, finally synthesized the Horadric Staff and opened the passage to the mysterious refuge.

The whole process is very complicated and full of variables. If you want to follow this process, it is faster to kill the mini-boss.

Of course, if the process can go through, let me choose, I will still choose to go to the Horadric tribe. It doesn’t matter if I spend a little more time, because I can get the most important artifact, the Horadric Cube, which is the most important thing no matter how strong I am. A treasure that can be of great use.

The Horadric Cube is so useful that although I don’t think Evelina will take advantage of me easily, I still have to spend time trying to see if I can get it.

It is a treasure of the Horadric tribe, a native artifact, and not an imported item brought by my time travel, so I still have a glimmer of hope that it can be preserved.

The Horadric Cube is on the second floor of the Viper Temple, but if you want to get it, you must first find the King's Staff as the key. If all goes well, in addition to the cube, I can also get the Horadric Staff. Although its attributes are It's not very good. It can only be ranked in the middle and lower grades among dark gold equipment. But it is better because it does not require level attributes. And for me who don't even have a gold equipment now, it is already the best equipment. If This face is getting darker all the way. I am afraid that in the first world, it is the only dark gold equipment that I can stably acquire.

So, head to the third level of the sewers to find the King's Staff.

Lugaoin is worthy of being the richest city on the continent. Although later, the camp relied on the advantage of the alliance's base camp to catch up in population and area. Horadric City relied on its leading magic technology, and its urban development gradually followed suit. But just looking at the sewers here, you can tell that the foundation of millions of years cannot be shortened in a few years or more.

Hey, why do these words sound familiar? Forget it, it's all irrelevant details.

In short, after wandering around in the sewer for more than half a month, I finally found the entrance to the third floor. Although I have no idea why there are three floors in a sewer like this and what the purpose is, as I just said, the details are not necessary. Care, just like in the game where the entrance to the palace prison is located in the residence of the female family members, you will never be able to figure out the designer's imagination.

The good friend of the people of Lugoin, the terrible Sewer King Rodament, is hiding at the bottom. His tall mummy body, the top of his head is almost touching the ceiling. He is very worried about its jumping ability after living in the sewer all year round. His knees are It's not hardened.

As an old friend who had only met once, I expressed my deep condolences and enthusiastically sent it to the Hell Treatment and Health Center. Rhodament was very moved and left me a piece of blue equipment in return.

Well, the whole battle process is probably like this. The blue equipment is a throwing knife. This thing is good, and it is easier to use than bows, arrows and crossbows.

The exciting moment came next. The treasure box that had made me frightened and dreamed all the way was indeed still there. I couldn't wait to pounce on it and carefully opened the treasure box.

With a crash, the dazzling light of gemstones poured out from the cracks in the box. A box full of gold and silver jewelry would definitely make anyone who came to hunt for treasures suffocate with excitement.

However, I didn't even look at it. I moved these useless pearls and gems away and turned them all the way to the bottom of the box.

No, indeed not.

Although I had expected this situation, I was still so frustrated that I couldn't help myself.

Without the King's Staff, it means that you can't get the Horadric Cube and the Viper Amulet, which means you can't synthesize the Horadric Staff, you can't get to the Horadric clan, and you can't see Duriel.

At this moment, I understood Evelina’s meaning more deeply.

Accept the test as an ordinary adventurer.

What is an ordinary adventurer? Can ordinary adventurers encounter these events? Obviously not, any cat or dog can trigger it. Will it be my turn to get the Horadric Cube, or my turn to save the Horadric clan?

Therefore, everything related to the aura of the protagonist and the aura of the savior has nothing to do with me in this testing world. Evelina, do you want to express this?

Hidden Sting, I accept the challenge.

It’s okay not to accept it, you bastard!

Devastated, he was about to take out the scroll to return to the city and leave this sad place. Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the bottom of the box, which seemed to be covered with a layer of something.

Go up and finally find a scroll.

It's a skill scroll, a skill scroll that allows you to gain a skill point!

Unexpectedly, Evelina didn't do it perfectly and kept this thing, but compared to the Horadric Cube, its value is too small, especially in the reality that dark gold equipment comes with its own skill points. under settings.

Well, just think of it as a consolation prize.

I used the skill scroll directly. After thinking about it, I was stingy with my attributes. I couldn't bear these sparkling jewels to end up in the sewer. Anyway, the inventory was very empty. I took them back and stuffed them into the storage box. Oh, right, I might as well. Put them together with the bug sword and make a jewelry bed full of nouveau riche taste for Evelina. I wonder if she will burst into tears with joy?

Another gain is that I reached level 10 in the sewers and said goodbye to single-digit levels, although I still can't learn second-level skills.

Back in Lugaoyin, Meimei had a good sleep. The small villa was still the same small villa, but without Princess Sanwu in white, she looked like a painted dragon without eyes, which was boring.

Lilith's terrifyingly big villa opposite, taking up half the street... No, maybe it's more appropriate to call it a castle or a palace. At night, it's brightly lit and looks like someone is inhabiting it. However, once inside, it's There was only light, and no trace of life could be felt.

Sure enough, this world... is still a bit lonely.

The next day I headed to the palace.

Although the dream of trying to find the Horadric Cube has been shattered, the Horadric clan in the real world has been saved and is open to ordinary adventurers to experience, so I don’t think Evelina will close such a large area. , in order to confirm my thoughts, I still want to make such a trip.

Anyway, where can I go to get some experience? If I can really find the ancient Tomb of Tarasha, I can save a lot of time than killing those small bosses. If this way is blocked, then I will be blocked in the palace prison. At worst, it will be a waste of time, just go to practice. class.

With a vague impression, I found the entrance to the abandoned palace prison. The entrance that was originally blocked was now cleared and the entrance was wide open. This allowed me to find some confidence, and I took out my beloved blue hand ax and equipped it. Putting on the round and cute white buckler, patting the leather armor on his body, he felt that there was still something missing, and by the way, he still needed a black cloak.

It's a pity that, with my current remnant explosion rate, this kind of special equipment, which is even rarer than accessories, may never be available to me in my lifetime. No one is around, and there is no tailor or blacksmith who can give it to me.

The title of the cloaked man may not be worthy of the name in this dream test world.

With such a boring lament, he entered the prison.

The damp and dark prison was lit with clusters of torches and braziers, making the scenery inside a little brighter. Of course, this may not be a pleasant thing, because you can see the walls and ground more clearly. Those dirty, slippery, disgusting black moss-covered mucus seemed like the walls were constantly crawling.

The monsters inside are much stronger than those in Rogge's camp. There is nothing I can do about it. The Royal Palace Prison is a mid-to-late stage area in Lu Gaoyin. It is equivalent to skipping a large section of the early stage experience area as soon as I came to Lu Gaoyin. Come directly here.

Sand knights, saber-toothed cats, dune beasts, desert bats, as well as skeleton warriors, skeleton archers, and skeleton mages that are indispensable in every area, are filling every corner of the prison, hiding in the shadow corners, waiting to jump out and give them life. You are pleasantly surprised.

However, it can't be hidden from my perception at all. In addition to skills, my countless combat experience can also make me ignore any ambush here. If it were a third world entity, it would be almost the same.

The only pity is that One Punch Man is not very useful here. Even if I add a few more strength attributes, no matter how strong the skill is, it still has its limitations. You can't let you go against the will. A clever woman can't make a fool of herself. , is probably the most realistic portrayal of this moment.

What, you mean the little blue axe? I have to use it sparingly and only take it out when I meet the boss elite. There is no blacksmith here. Although I have learned some repair skills, I don't want to go find blacksmith tools and waste time polishing and repairing them. Plus, my skills are not good. The earth, maybe it will explode if you keep practicing it for a long time.

So, how about an extra blue weapon? Even a mage stick would be fine.

The palace prison has three floors. Fortunately, it is not very big. It is at least much friendlier than Sister An's old lair. The only unfriendly place is...well, if I remember correctly, the portal leading from here to the mysterious sanctuary, It seems...in a prison toilet in the middle of the third floor?

Do I still have to go to the toilets one by one? Okay, okay, let’s get to the third floor first.

Counting the hourglass, after about seven or eight days, I finally arrived at the third floor. I have not been exploring in vain these days... Ahem, I mean I have not been exploring in vain. I have a rough idea of ​​the general structure of the prison. In terms of space, the three floors should be symmetrical, just with different layouts, so...

The central position should be in this diagonal direction. As long as I display my characteristics as a maze killer...

That's right, the long-lost Maze Killer appeared again. Thanks to the old state of disrepair of the prison, unlike the fourth floor of the Dusk Cave, which was outrageously hard. I followed the target all the way, going around as much as I could, but not when I couldn't. I came to a dead end. He immediately transformed into a demolition office, and sometimes he was smashed through with a loud bang, and he happened to come face-to-face with the monster entrenched on the other side of the wall, staring at him with big eyes and small eyes.

Brother, if you have the chance to meet through the wall, make friends, and take out your precious treasure? …
