The stone basin in the center of the hall made a gurgling sound, and soon half a basin of thick red liquid filled up. Makchita waved his hands like a conductor, and with his movements, a slimy lake stood out of the liquid, with a humanoid figure rising from Mars.
"You said this is the Flame Order Lock. It doesn't look like it." Nesai frowned. The Fire Sequence Lock is a classic and widely used protection method. It is usually unlocked by lighting a fixed number of braziers in a specific position in a specific order. I have never seen such a situation involving an adulterer.
Just as Markchita scratched his head and prepared to explain, the red figure stretched and twisted: "Who said I don't look like him?"
"Me," Nesse said.
"Come here." The spirit of Yanxu said - just to express his attitude, Nese was actually standing in front of him.
Its voice was full and full, sticky, "And you." The spirit of Flame Order pointed at Makchita, and then pointed behind the beauty-hating demon, "And you. You three."
"Me?" Anquor was stunned for a moment.
"Yes. Come here! Don't waste time! You are the heir here, and I can sense your bloodline."
Anquor stepped forward and subconsciously grabbed Makchita's mane.
"Let me see... the next generation of Viannis. It is not as annoying as the old Viannis." The Spirit of Flame Order bent an arc, looked at him, and quickly said with disappointment:
"It's so strange. Your qualifications are incomplete. Your mind is incomplete, your spirit is slow, and your body and mind are average. It's like an empty shell. It's so strange. Why did you choose to inherit these magic treasures? Forget it. Let's not worry about that. But you can't. You can't be a firewatcher."
It made a categorical judgment, threw the pale-faced Anquor aside, turned its head and observed Nese with a pair of sunken round eyes. A few seconds later, it hiccupped and spit out a few sparks, shouting: "Hey. You are a bit weird too, what on earth are you?"
"Whatever you want me to do, just say it." Nesai said coldly.
"I don't worry about anything I do...if the entire secret cave is polluted by improper operation, then I will also suffer." The spirit of Yanxu muttered to itself, then turned to the beauty-hating demon, "It's better for you to be the firekeeper. Well. Your energy is quite pure and your body is thick enough. Although your mind is stupid, you can only make do with it. Come on! Hurry up! Where are you going? You choose."
"etc."
Nese interrupted, "What is Firewatch? What do you want him to choose?"
"Huh? You haven't discussed it yet..."
"Choose a door." Makchita quickly interjected, "This is the procedure to unlock the hinge. I've seen it before. It doesn't matter, it's the same. I'll just look at it here, I can hold on. I'll choose the first door. !”
"The first door. A stubborn watcher." The spirit of Yan Xu declared without thinking too much, raising an "arm" flowing with viscous liquid. The front end of the arm fell off and turned into a red irregular shape. It split into two in mid-air and flew whizzing into the braziers on the left and right sides of the first pointed arch. It filled them with red fire in less than two seconds. The liquid bulged over the edges of the basin.
The blood flowed, and both sides of the arch were quickly dyed with the same color, and the energy in the air began to flow.
Several people stared for a while with their eyes wide open, but the door did not open.
Waited for a while. Nothing happened. Blaize was the first to turn his head and wanted to question, but the spirit of Yanxu became impatient at first:
"As I said, a stubborn watcher. Go to the first door."
"Hey, you. I forgot. We need one more person here." Makchita reacted and quickly called out: "A 'firekeeper', a 'watchman'. A 'tourist'. 'Tourist' It must be you..." He nodded to Nese.
"'Watcher'..." The beauty-hating demon looked at Winnie.
The half-elf shrugged, "If you think I'm a human being."
"I think you are all human beings. There is no difference. You know..." Markchita touched her belly, as if she suddenly realized that it was inappropriate to continue talking, and immediately changed her words: "Please. Please."
Winnie had already walked to the middle of the two stone basins at the Red Gate, "Is it right here?"
"That'll do. Please don't move. The hub you're looking for is behind one of the doors in this room."
The Spirit of Flame Order nodded, "Now I want to open another door..."
"Then what am I doing standing here?"
"Don't be anxious. I'm in a hurry too. But let's not be anxious. The door I'm about to open -" The spirit of Yanxu waved a hand and threw out a sticky irregular liquid ball, which was in the air. Split in half, burrowed into the stone basins on the left and right of the third pointed arch, and quickly grew in number. The third door was also dyed blood red. "——The back is empty."
As the words fell. The door in the middle opened with a bang.
Behind the door is a medium-sized stone chamber. Looking up, the four walls and low ceiling inside are clearly visible and empty.
"It's indeed empty." Makchita added with a nod.
"So the hub is behind one of the other two doors," Neese said.
"Now I have eliminated a wrong option for you. 'Tourist'. You have a chance to open the door and find the hub." The spirit of Yanxu said.
"So-?" Nesai frowned. "Do you want me to guess now?"
"You can choose to open the door guarded by the Watcher, or you can choose to open the third door I just activated."
The Spirit of Flame Order made an elegant gesture, "It's your choice. But there is only one chance. When you choose. Walk over and extinguish the flames on the door. The door will open. If there is a hub inside. You take it, I It won't interfere with you in any way.
If you make the wrong choice. Without the hub inside the door, the 'Watcher' will die. Next, you need to add a 'watchman' so that 'tourists' can choose again. "
His words are not difficult to understand. Winnie laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Nese looked at Makchita gloomily, and the beauty-hating demon became flustered:
"It's not that exaggerated! I will help you-"
"I don't understand." Nesse interrupted, "This is asking us to make baseless guesses. The price is the life of one of them."
"Listen to me. Listen to me!"
Makchita hurriedly interrupted, "You should open another door. The door you choose the Watcher, the chance of choosing the right one is one-third. If you choose the third door, the chance of choosing the right one is one-third. two."
"What's the difference? They're all half. Mr. Fat Demon is talking nonsense again." Blaize was already looking around the Spirit of Flame Order curiously, but at this time his attention was also attracted by their words. Disdain to assert.
"It's not nonsense. The probability of getting the hub by changing the door is two-thirds."
Tarostos, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke, "The teachers of the Mathematical Olympiad taught such things."
Blazer snorted.
Tarostos stepped forward, looked at the red and sticky figure standing in the central stone basin, and raised his face, "You know where the hub is, sir."
"Of course I know." The spirit of Yanxu smiled, "I didn't expect you to be quite smart."
"That's it. That's the crux of the matter." Markchita wiped the yellow beads of sweat on his forehead and panted heavily, "Because it knows. And it will not exclude the door that the watcher has occupied. So just enter With the third door, you have a high probability of getting the hub."
"High probability?"
"It's already a very high probability." The Beauty-Hating Demon felt aggrieved, "It's almost certain that you can get it."
