Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 369: Trial of the Treasure Box

As everyone watched nervously, Lilil walked to the front of the treasure chest.

There is no way not to be nervous. Before, Thor predicted many possible situations, but everyone did not get the slightest comfort. Because what he said seems to be terrible! A lot of it sounds like a mortal game.

Almost the moment Lili touched the treasure chest, everyone seemed to be aware of it and turned their heads to look in the direction of the door of the room at the same time.

There is no way not to pay attention, because the situation is too weird.

The door of the room wasn't suddenly closed when a door panel was suddenly dropped, but it was silent, as if a door panel suddenly grew on the wall, and closed seamlessly. If everyone didn't come in from there before, right now they couldn't find the location of the room door.

Seeing this scene, Lilil also stopped what she was doing, and everyone turned to look at Saul, seeming to be waiting for instructions.

"As expected, there is nothing to care about, everyone continues to focus." Saul waved his hand to Lilier to continue.

There is a cross-shaped lock leaf on the front of the treasure chest. There should be a lock hole in the middle of the cross, but I didn't see it, indicating that this treasure chest does not need to be so troublesome to unlock. Lili fumbled for a while, pinned the dagger into the seam of the box and opened the treasure box easily.

The moment Lili opened the lid of the box, she withdrew suddenly, as if she had been bitten by a snake.

The wall of the box is a bit deep, so I can't see the contents temporarily, if there is something sleeping on the bottom of the box.

"Attention, the enemy is coming!" Sol reminded everyone loudly, in fact, he was also a little nervous and didn't know what to face.

Then everyone followed Saul's line of sight, staring at the blurred outline on the ground in front of the treasure chest. Then in the sight of everyone, that outline quickly appeared in front of everyone, it turned out to be...

"Qua~" A frog looked at everyone curiously, and seemed to want to spit out something in the next moment, but it didn't have a chance.

After a short lag, everyone shot quickly, magic and sword light were chaotic, and dust was everywhere.

"It's okay, but a frog...oh, it's just a poison frog. The others are flattened and stuck to the ground, what are you still smashing there? Are you as good as your hands? Does your hand hurt?" Sol's cheeks Twitchingly grabbed Pare, who was still shaking his hammer.

If Saul hadn't caught him in time, it was estimated that this reckless man could hammer a hole in the ground.

"This...well, everyone's reaction is very good, at least fast enough, but the reaction is too intense. Also, in the choice of combat skills, please apply as appropriate. High-level magic is not necessary for the time being. Don't let the enemy do it. People are falling down."

After hearing Saul's words, everyone blushed, and was a little startled just now.

"Okay, Lilill go and see what's in the treasure chest." After waiting for a while, he didn't see the enemy again before Sol issued a new order. In a short moment, everyone was in chaos, and Thor didn't even get a chance to make a shot.

"Ah! It's actually a dragon fruit." Lili's surprised voice came from the treasure chest.

Dragon fruit? Sol raised his eyebrows, apparently he had never heard of it.

When the things were delivered to Phines on his left, Thor tilted his head and glanced. About the size of a fist, it looks like some kind of fruit, with some scaly plant skin on the surface, and some fine burrs distributed on the epidermis.

As if feeling the sight of Thor's inquiry, Phines wrapped the fruit in a piece of fur and turned to explain to Saul.

"We have encountered it twice on the previous maze floor, and eating is helpful for melee occupations. No, it should be said that it is helpful for all occupations that require mental power. It seems that the total amount of mental power will be slightly increased. ,Do you want it?"

This... is obviously a good thing! What I lack most is mental power.

Saul opened his mouth slightly, and finally closed his mouth and shook his head. I wanted it. The problem was reflected in Havak after I had eaten it. It was a waste, but it was a pity that I couldn't bring it back to the continent of Salvinia.

Just when everyone was relieved, thinking that the treasure chest room was nothing more than this.

"Ka~" The treasure chest in the center closed as if receiving some invisible force, and made a muffled noise.

Everyone in the room looked at each other, only Sol knew everything.

How can it be that simple? The people who came in before are all dead!

Now Thor can be sure that those people should have died instead of being teleported. Because the flesh of the poison frog on the ground had disappeared, as if it had never appeared before, Thor temporarily attributed this to a certain self-purification function of the room itself.

"The way remains the same, Lilier opens the treasure box, everyone cheers up, but don't get too excited." Sol waved again.

After an easy first battle, everyone was calmer this time.

As Lilier retreated, everyone began to turn their attention to the surroundings, waiting for the enemy to appear.

To my surprise, this time the enemy did not come from the ground, but from the mid-air in front of everyone.

Along with the solidification of the two phantoms, two sharp-winged birds with sharp hooks on the edges of their wings appeared in the air. This time everyone responded very appropriately, drove around for a while, and two enemies were pierced by magical arrows and fell to the ground.

This time, there is a piece of parchment in the treasure chest, a herbal formula, which should have a good effect. I can see that Phines is very happy.

From the beginning to the end, Thor didn't make a move. After seeing the enemy that appeared, Thor held his hands and lowered his head into thinking.

"Ka~" Not surprisingly, the treasure chest closed itself again.

Just when everyone is ready to make a big effort.

"Wait, this is indeed a dead end." Thor suddenly raised his hand to stop everyone.

It's a good time to take the opportunity to make a fortune, why is it suddenly dead? Thor's abrupt words bluffed everyone.

Saul glanced over everyone's face solemnly, relied on his expression to emphasize to everyone that he was not joking, and then spoke.

"I have probably guessed the rules of the treasure chest room. The first time the enemy was a first-order poison frog, the second time was two second-order sharp-winged birds. If nothing happens, the third time will appear. Three third-tier enemies, just don’t know what they are."

"Based on this calculation, when the treasure chest opens until nine rank 9 enemies appear, we will undoubtedly die."

"No, let’s not talk about nine ninth tiers. With our current number, one ninth tier is enough to deal with us. And we can’t get to ninth tier at all. I think when we reach five fifth tiers, we are almost the same. There will be deaths and injuries."

"And these are just my personal optimistic estimates, because no one has ever known whether there are any enemies up to the ninth level. Will there be a tenth level? Or something more powerful?" Sol gave his rough guess. Said it.

Everyone was dumbfounded, listening to Saul's speculation, they only felt the cold behind them whizzing upwards.

"Perhaps... we don't have to drive to the ninth rank, we..." someone said uncertainly.

"It's useless, because we don't have a choice. Even if we stop now and don't touch the treasure chest anymore. We are already trapped in the room. We will die of thirst and starve in the end, so in the end we still have to return to the problem of the treasure chest. ."

"If I'm right, the wall is indestructible, it has nothing to do with power, it should be some of its own rules in the treasure chest room. Besides, it may not be possible to use any magical items or escape methods in it to prevent people. Run away."

"I believe this is also the cause of death for those who entered the treasure chest room before, because they couldn't get out in the end, so they could only turn around and face the enemies from the treasure chest again until everyone died in battle."

"They are lucky enough to believe that if they defeat all the enemies brought by the treasure chest, and someone survives, they may be able to see life. I have to say that this may be a way to escape, but in theory, unfortunately they are all dead. Up."

"The reason why I think they are all dead, just like the corpses of the poison frog and the sharpwing bird, have now disappeared. You can also understand this as part of the rules of the treasure chest room, a kind of room itself... Well, cleaning behavior."

"In short, I think this is like a trial of rewards and punishments. The reward is the treasure in the treasure chest, and the punishment is death."

After listening to Saul's reasonable analysis, everyone fell into a long silence and could no longer speak.

"Then we...what do we do now?" a female swordsman in the team asked.

"Let's continue opening the treasure chest first, at least remove the treasures we can get." Sol waved his hand.

"What else to open? This is dead, what else to open?" A male mage complained, seeming a little depressed.

"Do you...know the way to get out?" Finis looked at Saul suspiciously and asked.

She had been looking at Saul while he was talking, but after a calm analysis of this guy, he didn't seem to be nervous at all. Is it really because Hawak died he was able to go home? But Phines felt that Saul would not be such a merciless person.

Hearing Phines' question, everyone turned their heads and looked over with hope.

"This... is a bit of an idea. In short, everyone should seize the opportunity to make a fortune." Saul smiled and waved.

The smile made people want to hammer him to death inexplicably, but it also gave everyone an unspeakable sense of stability.

So everyone can only regain their spirits and continue to face the enemies in the treasure chest.

Opening the treasure chest for the third time, as Thor expected, three Minotaur tauren monsters appeared, one of which seemed to be a mage. However, everyone was ready to fight and quickly sent them to the gods.

As for the reward, it turned out to be a set of women's stainless steel bust breastplates with gems.

The decoration and practicability are very good, and Phinisi shiitake mushrooms are obviously very fond of them. Hehe, woman!

The fourth time everyone responded with a bit of difficulty. It was four unknown monsters of Tier 4 with stiff heads, all covered in rust and chains, as if a stump-like head had no facial features, only strange metal spikes standing upside down. It looks evil and weird.

The key is that their physique is very strong, and they have certain resistance to magic and weapons.

Everyone was unfamiliar for a while, was caught off guard, and others were injured. Fortunately, the enemy was still resolved in the end.

As for the reward, it is a strange construction drawing of the magic tower. This kind of building has no practical meaning in the maze environment, but the drawing and learning steps of some of the magic arrays aroused the keen interest of several wizards in the team.

At the moment when he saw the reward, Thor's eyes burst into light, as if he had caught something, and it was a little unspecific.
