“Contestants listen, contestants listen.”
"Today's last Wheel of Fortune challenge is 'equivalent transaction'. Streamer Revelator, Doll Shelter Envoy, and Doll Guide will all sell information on the location of the upgraded shelter to the contestants. Use your gains to win the opportunity to advance."
Just as Lu Yu was thinking about the problem, the puppet messenger announced the latest challenge information. At the same time, there were countless contestants looking up at the sky. Immediately afterwards, they began to count the trophies they had on hand.
So far, the location of the puppet asylum messenger is still a mystery. If they cannot take advantage of this last opportunity, they will be completely eliminated.
In the chat room, Lu Lu laughed heartily: "This Supreme Puppet Master is also an honest person. Originally, there were too many contestants and he should have screened them. But in the end, he didn't intervene. Now he announces whatever comes out of the turntable. , fun and interesting.”
Sera fell into deep thought. She wanted to say something to Lu Yu, but seeing that he was still lost in thought, she did not interrupt rashly.
At Lu Yu's suggestion, Herola and Yingwei eliminated the leader of the hunting group. She had no mercy at all towards the Black Gloves of the big family who sniped at ordinary contestants. What's more, this man just said that he wanted to stay. When she was talking, she clearly showed naked animal desires. How could Herola not understand what this guy wanted to do.
Herola found a variety of potions on the corpses of the eight-person hunting group. After checking them on the road, she found that these potions were of different levels and were obviously made by different people. They were tied to their waists. Those potions are completely on two levels.
"How many people have they killed..." Herola felt hairy all over when she realized that these people had killed countless ordinary contestants.
Although it was said that one must have this awareness before entering the trial, Herola still felt uncomfortable.
"Sela?"
Lu Yu's voice sounded in the silent chat room.
"Have you gained anything from thinking about it for so long?"
"A bit, don't you think it's a bit strange that the Supreme Puppet Master buries secrets in the Flowing Light Revealer, and that those who find the secrets can receive special rewards and enter the City of Flowing Light? If there really is a hidden opportunity for such a generous reward , why should it be placed in the entry-level regional level trial?”
"It's a bit, but the way the Supreme Puppet Master arranges the trial is more like arranging a grand game, and he is more like a god watching the characters in the game compete for opportunities and rewards... I think the game is The angle can explain the sudden irrationality, after all, it all depends on his mood where he puts it."
"As you said, this sense of dissonance can be eliminated by using a game mentality instead of trials, but I have another opinion." Lu Yu said. "These great magic families have verified through trials and trials that the Streaming Revelator has the 'secret' of the Supreme Puppet Master. They are constantly exploring for the temptation to enter the Puppet City, but is it possible that the Supreme Puppet Master The teacher arranged this secret to find someone who could understand his thinking."
"Understand his train of thought?" Sera was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something. She hesitated and asked, "Looking for a truly qualified trialist?"
At this moment, the two people's ways of thinking coincided with each other tacitly.
"To outsiders, it looks like a trial, to the Puppet Master, it looks like a game, but to the Supreme Puppet Master, it looks like a screening mechanism. Ming's screening mechanism is a trial with different rules again and again, but secretly, it actually started as early as one A special trial has been arranged from the beginning, from the first session of the Flowing Light Trial, and it has not changed until now."
Sera followed Lu Yu's words and continued: "Most of the Flowing Light Revelators are from the hands of the Supreme Puppet Master. They are the fossils that have remained unchanged since the first trial. According to Herola, even if some trial rules obviously do not require Revelators appear, and they still appear as facilitators.”
Easter eggs exist just to be discovered, and the people who bury them are looking forward to this moment.
"We don't know whether the streamer revelators will appear in large numbers in the subsequent stages... We must find a way to explode more gold coins."
"But where are we going to find gold coins? We don't know how many gold coins we need to dig out the secrets left by the Supreme Puppet Master."
Lu Yu glanced at the dazzling array of trophies in Herola's backpack, and raised the corners of his mouth: "It's not that there is no way, it's worth a try."
The doll protector is actually located in a huge lake surrounded by mountains. It is not on the ground, but underwater. It is difficult for ordinary people to think of this rather underworld place unless they are reminded.
Most of the first batch of people who were lucky enough to get hints from the Revelator made a lot of money. The rules did not stipulate that they were not allowed to sell key information for advancement, so they used "treasures that can be carried out of the trial field" as the price to obtain Lots of resources.
Those who obtain information through the last challenge "Equivalent Exchange" can still be second-hand dealers for a while. The value of the shelter information will plummet near the trial, because by then most people can pass the trailing Way to find this neighborhood.
Understanding this, Lu Yu arrived at the sanctuary lake in advance. Sure enough, in Lu Lu's perception, there were no fewer than forty or fifty people hiding here. Judging from the fluctuations of magic power, in this trial ground, they were all considered The best one is qualified to give way to a fireball during the battle.
Everyone was hiding. Only Lu Yu, like a child who was ignorant of the world, strolled by the lake without any cover. This moment attracted everyone's attention.
"Everyone..." Lu Yu cleared his throat and shouted in a loud voice, "I know you are around here, and I also know where you are hiding. Now I want to make a deal with you."
Herola promptly placed the two high-end backpack materials she had harvested on the ground, and then took them out one by one. While taking them, she loudly described their uses and effects.
Her heart was bleeding and her hands were shaking.
"Baby...my baby...wuwu, how many gold coins can I exchange for this? How much money can I save...It's gone, it's all gone..."
Although she thought so, Herola did not forget that without Lu Yu, she would never have been able to obtain such a generous reward.
"What are you yelling about and what do you want to do?"
This group of elite contestants who originally wanted to recharge their batteries were confused by Lu Yu's actions. Someone took the lead and showed up, and the rest also showed up alertly, but no one dared to approach.
】
"I said, I want to make a deal with you." Lu Yu took out the gold coin of Destiny Voucher in his hand and let it float in the air. "I believe that some of you should still have extra Destiny Voucher in your hands. Now, I Do you want to recycle it to everyone, do you have a price... I think you might be interested in these high-end materials that can be brought out of the trial field."
After everyone looked at each other, someone asked in confusion: "What are these gold coins used for?"
"No comment, but I can tell you clearly that the value to you ends here, and will never be greater than the materials you can take away with peace of mind."
Some people looked at Lu Yu as if he was looking at a fool. After this conversation, everyone felt that the gold coins might have some uses. Although they didn’t know the specific uses, the possibility of keeping them in their own hands and gambling was very good. Who will trade?
Herola also reminded Lu Yu that saying this might be counterproductive, but Lu Yu just laughed and did not explain.
The silence lasted for a long time, and a black-skinned elf who was hiding far away and seemed to be of the same race as Herola slowly stepped forward.
She looked at Herola and then at Lu Yu, who was wearing a mask and was quite mysterious: "I have two. I need dragon blood and dragon bones."
Lu Yu said with a smile: "You are a little too greedy."
"Forget it, I choose to keep it."
"Please do it." Lu Yu said simply without trying to hold him back.
After turning around and walking a few steps, the black-skinned elf suddenly stopped. She suddenly turned around and took a deep breath: "Give me the dragon bone. I want a longer portion."
After receiving Lu Yu's signal, Herola presented the dragon bone with both hands, and the gold coins fell into Lu Yu's hands.
This scene was clearly seen by everyone at the scene. After the refreshing delivery, the black-skinned elf disappeared into the shadows with a wind-attribute magic. She disappeared strangely like a wisp of smoke from everyone's sight.
"It seems that someone has chosen to settle for safety." Lu Yu snickered, "I only have so many spoils. Those who trade first can also get more valuable high-level materials with wider uses. , maybe there is no choice, now, who else plans to exchange?"
To be fair, Lu Yu's loot far exceeded that of everyone present. They didn't know where Lu Yu's luck came from, and he was able to get so much from the airdrop box. Is he the illegitimate son of the Supreme Puppet Master? How could he be so rich?
In addition to envy, jealousy and hatred, their hearts are also ready to stir up...
A crocodile man swam up from the lake. He patted the wet water plants hanging on his body and spit out a gold coin from his mouth: "I want dragon blood, half of it is fine."
Herola mixed half of the dragon's blood, and poured an extra third after Lu Yu reminded her. This made the crocodile man ecstatic, and also completely shaken the others who were still hesitating.
Two smooth and conscientious transactions made everyone lose their guard. As Lu Yu said, it is your own to make a steady profit. In such a high-intensity trial, no one encounters an emergency moment that requires forced withdrawal. Why bother when you can predict that you won’t be able to take the extra gold coins with you when you leave?
After transactions one after another, Lu Yu had fewer and fewer high-end materials and more and more gold coins, reaching a total of thirty.
During this process, some contestants were also touched by Lu Yu's exchange of consciences. He reminded: "You may be targeted by someone who is interested in doing this, so please be careful."
Lu Yu naturally knew that acting in such a big way would inevitably cause trouble, but in order to find secrets and enter the Doll City, he was too lazy to bother.
With thirty certificates in hand, Lu Yu quickly rushed towards the location of the Flowing Light Revelator.
"Trouble has indeed come, and there are quite a few people." Lulu sensed it, "There is no aura of the group of people by the lake just now. It seems that someone else got the news and followed them."
Lu Yu clicked his tongue: "Is it another hunting group?"
He did not continue to speed up to get rid of this group of people, but kept moving at a speed that would allow this group of "troublesome" to catch up without falling behind. It was not until he saw the Revelator that Lu Yu landed with a smile on his face and murmured Said: "It's great that you can come and deliver it in person."
A dozen contestants came to the ground one after another. Just as the leader was about to speak, Lu Yu suppressed a smile and said, "Do you want to say, hand over the gold coins immediately?"
The leader was stunned. His mind went blank for a moment as he was robbed of his words. Feeling humiliated, he blushed. Unwilling to admit that his thoughts were read through, he stubbornly changed the topic and said: "What on earth did you do? If you can harvest so many high-level materials, you can still bring them out of the trial field..."
"Is this important? You have a brain that can't handle multi-threading, and a personality that has to worry about saving face when being robbed. Why do you ask these questions?"
After saying that, Lu Yu laughed out loud.
Herola didn't actually understand what multi-threading meant, but Lu Yu laughed, and she laughed too, to show that she understood the meaning of this sentence.
"Originally, I wanted to be merciful and only seek wealth without harming my life..."
"Pfft——"
I remembered the muffled sound, and the smell of blood spread.
The leader looked at his companion's chest that was unexpectedly penetrated, and was shaking all over. Just when he was about to react, a black mist enveloped him.
In the darkness, a white skeleton wearing a black robe and a crown held a small lamp that emitted faint light and stared at him with empty eyes.
"I don't have the habit of waiting for people to finish talking before fighting, at least not with trash of your level." Lu Yu said coldly, "You are hired by those big families to explore the secrets of trials for them again and again. , there must be a lot of blood on your hands..."
"Judge of the Abyss, let this villain face his own judgment."
"As you wish, my Lord."
The shadow substitutes and headless horsemen from the Kingdom of Shadow instantly surrounded the scene. After the intensive sound of fighting disappeared, only scattered corpses were left on the scene.
"It really does, it really does!"
Herola, who was searching for trophies on the dead, found the certificate of destiny. This hunting group actually held four gold coins!
"At the lakeside, I found someone secretly releasing the messenger, obviously to report what happened there. There is a high probability that the people who are so jealous of me getting the gold coins are other people who are looking for magical uses for the gold coins..." Lu Yu clicked his tongue, "I didn't expect it. They are so easy to take the bait, why can't they think about the confidence of a person who dares to walk through the market with a treasure?"
"Don't be complacent, there are people here again." Lulu reminded, "Don't kill too fast, let my fireball join in the fun."
Another group of well-equipped enemies appeared in Coal Ball's field of vision. They were obviously the enemies who had won the previous game of chicken.
"Come on, come on, everyone, I want to see how many gold coins you people can provide me."
"Your blood will help me glimpse the deepest secrets of the Supreme Puppet Master!"
The streamer of light silently watched everything that happened in front of him. Its sight was no longer on the contestants who needed guidance, but on the shining "gold coins".
A message that could only be transmitted between puppets was echoed by each Revelator.
"The door of revelation is opening."
