"Humans, thank you for your advice.
"Now, you're done."
After biting off its own snake head again and again, the eighty-seven-headed snake felt that its destructive power was increasing sharply every second, and it was 10 times more powerful than ever!
Nothing can stop it anymore!
All the heads of the ninety-headed snake were raised together, ready to tear the two humans into pieces.
"Huh? Where are the two humans?" The ninety-four-headed snake fell into confusion.
Ninety-six-headed snakes looked around.
Behind it, the golden apples on the sacred tree disappeared!
Further away, Subway and Russell were riding away at high speed on their horses.
Apparently, Subway and Russell stole the golden apple while it was tearing off its own snake's head. They also picked up nine snake heads from the ground, put them into a bag, and ran away quickly.
"Let's run! As long as we bring back all nine snake heads and golden apples, the mission is complete!" Russell shouted to Subway on horseback.
"Humans, stop!" the ninety-nine-headed snake shouted and chased after him.
"Hurry up, horse, or you will be overtaken by a hundred and one snakes. Look at my fighting spirit turning into a horse!" Subway kept stabbing the horse with spurs to drive the horse to run faster.
"How can two horses outrun me?" The one hundred and three-headed snake thought that it was a mythical creature, but it would not be thrown away by two horses. It continued to accelerate and ran faster and faster.
However, no matter how hard the one hundred and four-headed snake ran, the distance between it and the horse only grew farther and farther.
Before his eyes, the two humans were about to disappear from his sight.
Only then did the one hundred and six-headed snake realize that it now had too many snake heads, which seriously slowed down its speed. It was extremely slow when running and could not catch up with Russell and Subway on horseback.
Just like that, Russell and Subway returned to the king's palace.
They completed the second task by delivering all nine heads severed from the Hydra to the king along with the golden apples.
[Hydra mission completed! 】
"Time is running out. Let's set off immediately to challenge the Sphinx and complete the third mission."
…………
At the same time, in another dream.
In the first few minutes, Bai had successfully used lamp oil and flames to prevent the regeneration of the Hydra, successfully killed the Zero-headed Snake, returned to the palace, and completed the second mission.
Now, the progress of Shiro and Nanami's team is still a little faster than that of Russell and Subway's team!
They had already arrived in front of the Sphinx and answered the Sphinx's first question.
While waiting for the monster to ask the next question, Bai recalled some fragments outside the dream and said coldly to Nanami:
“Woman, you should feel honored.
"If my little brother hadn't happened to be away, and if a fool hadn't rejected my invitation to team up, I wouldn't have casually partnered with you.
"Without me, you would never have been able to pass the test so easily and reach this final level."
In the dream, he was no longer restrained, revealing the truest side of his character, and his words revealed unabashed arrogance.
Although in the dream, Bai could not realize that he was participating in the test, he still vaguely remembered some information that impressed him outside the dream.
For example, the exam information provided to me by my brother.
For example, what impressed him deeply was the scene where Subway and Russell provoked him.
"Yes, thank you." Nanami nodded without denying Bai's words.
The Sphinx opened his mouth again:
"My next question is..."
…………
"It seems that as long as nothing happens to Bai's team, there should be no suspense about winning the championship." In the office, a middle-aged woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a straight face, the professor codenamed Agate, commented.
If multiple teams can pass the three missions, then the team with the shortest clearance time will be ranked first!
"It's true. Team Shiro and Nanami are the most likely to win the grand prize I prepared. However, until the last moment, nothing is a foregone conclusion and anything can happen." said the young male teacher codenamed Opal.
"At this stage of the exam, it is unlikely that there will be any big changes." Black Amber said helplessly.
She hoped from the bottom of her heart that Russell, a prophetic hero, could win the championship. But his and Subway's teams were already significantly behind, making it almost impossible to overtake.
The only chance to win is if Shiro and Nanami's team make a mistake and fail in the third level.
However, the test of the Sphinx is actually the easiest among the three major levels. Bai was able to pass the first two levels, so there is no way he could fail here.
Forget it, even for second place, the reward is very generous, but you can't get the mysterious grand prize... Black Amber muttered silently.
Moreover, Russell is a magic genius who can change wrong rituals into correct versions. When he actually enters school and masters extraordinary abilities, he will definitely perform even more amazingly! Why stick to the results of one entrance exam?
Obviously at the beginning, she felt that as long as Russell could pass the admissions exam normally, she would be satisfied, and there was no need to insist on first place.
When did my expectations get so high?
