The demon merchant said that the monster on the second floor is the mother who is afraid of light, which means that the monster is afraid of light, so it is said that it needs light without emotion.
But Zhang Ze always felt that things would not be that simple.
The Demon Realm Businessman was too cunning. Zhang Ze was always skeptical of his words and did not dare to believe them easily.
"If it's light, I can provide it."
Elsa spoke, and she raised a finger, a fire gathering at her fingertips.
"Great, with light, we are not afraid of that monster anymore!" The Dragon King was very happy.
The group of people walked along the dilapidated stairs to the second floor. They found that there was no light in the corridor on this floor, and it was as dark as ink inside.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Zhang Ze always felt that something seemed to be staring at them in the deep darkness!
Everyone looked at each other and stepped forward. If they wanted to go down to the first floor, they had to go down the stairs on the other side of the second floor, so they had to go through this corridor.
Unexpectedly, a dark wind blew and blew out the flames on Aisha's fingertips!
Aisha's expression suddenly changed. She had condensed the magical flame, and no matter what kind of wind it was, it could not blow it out.
But now it has been blown out! This is definitely not normal!
Zhang Ze also noticed something unusual and asked, "What's wrong with Aisha?"
"Master, something is wrong with this floor!"
Aisha explained the situation again, and Zhang Ze also frowned and said, "Try again."
"Um."
Elsa condensed the flame again, but the result was the same: it was blown out by a strange wind again.
"Okay, no need to try."
Zhang Ze asked Aisha to stop. He looked at Shan Dao Bu Buqi, who also nodded: "Perhaps the rules here are set by the Demon Realm merchants, there must be no fire?"
"Then what should we do? It's pitch dark here. If we meet that mother who is afraid of light, wouldn't we be done with it?" the Dragon King said depressedly.
Outside the screen, Liu Yueying looked at the Demon Realm merchants and asked, "What does this mean? Are you deliberately forcing them to death?"
"of course not."
The demon merchant spread his hands and said: "I said that I will not design a link that makes players die."
"Then why can't my brother and the others light a fire?" Zhang Feng shouted angrily.
"You can't blame me for this." The Demon Realm merchant said with an aggrieved look, "I prepared candles for them, but they didn't notice."
Everyone was stunned: "Candle?"
"Yes, there are candlesticks on the walls on both sides of the corridor when you first entered. They can take down the candles and use them." The demon merchant shrugged: "They didn't notice it themselves, so they can't blame me."
Little Princess Qian said angrily: "Who knows where you placed the candles? Without a reminder, you can't find them at all!"
"Then you can remind them."
The Demon Realm merchant smiled lightly and said, "Oh, I forgot, you don't have the Demon Soul Ball now."
The first three prompts had already spent all their magic soul balls, and now there were only a few million left, which was not enough to cover the cost of a message transmission.
While everyone was getting anxious, Liu Yueying suddenly spoke: "Demon Realm Businessman, I remember Rakshasa once mentioned to me that you wanted him to do something for you..."
The demon merchant was slightly startled, then Liu Yueying continued: "If he dies here, it doesn't seem to be of any benefit to you, right?"
"Uh...you reminded me."
The Demon Realm Businessman rubbed his brows. Because he was too involved in his role, the Demon Realm Businessman had forgotten how important Zhang Ze was to him.
So he snapped his fingers and said: "Then this reminder will be treated as if I hired you for free, and it won't be the same next time."
Then, everyone saw on the screen that the candles on the two candlesticks on the wall suddenly lit up, startling Zhang Ze and the others.
"Thank you." Liu Yueying smiled and nodded to the Demon Realm merchant.
The latter sighed helplessly, as if he had lost 100 million.
Zhang Ze stared at the burning candle, chuckled, and said to Buqing and Dragon King: "Is this a tip from the Demon Realm merchant?"
"I can't bring my own fire, so I have to use the candle he prepared?" Bu Bu raised his eyebrows: "Do you think this candle is serious?"
"I don't know if it's serious or not, but we seem to have no other choice." Zhang Ze stepped forward and took down the candle from the candlestick.
The Dragon King took off the other one, and the group moved deeper into the corridor with the faint light of these two candles.
The dull air was filled with the rotten smell in the long corridor. The candle flames swayed without wind, casting shadows on the gloomy walls, making the already sinister corridor even more terrifying.
The corridors are lined with old painted wooden doors, most of which are dilapidated and broken, with only some remaining wood chips scattered on the floor.
The deep darkness seems so heavy, as if it can swallow people up!
They seemed to hear countless ghostly voices echoing in their ears, and they had goosebumps all over their bodies.
Zhang Ze stared around vigilantly, worried that a monster would suddenly attack them, but until they reached the end of the corridor and saw the same iron door, no monster appeared.
"Yeah, the same mechanism design."
Without emotion, he looked at the iron door by the firelight. There were also grooves on it, but there were six, and they were not round, but thin rhombuses. If you look closely, you will find that it is an eye.
"Is this a key that needs six eyes?" Zhang Ze raised his eyebrows.
"Ah! Another puzzle! I hate puzzles!"
The Dragon King grabbed his hair and let out a cry of despair.
"When I came here, I saw eyes painted on the wooden doors on both sides of the corridor. Let's go see what's going on."
Zhang Ze said to Bu Qing and Dragon King.
Outside the screen, Liu Yueying frowned slightly. She was wondering why the "mother who was afraid of light" didn't appear?
"Where is the monster hiding? Why doesn't it show up?" Sky's melancholy is also strange.
Yiye Zhiqiu guessed: "Perhaps this monster is different from the invisible child on the upper level. It may need to trigger special conditions to appear?"
Everyone debated, but to no avail, so they had no choice but to continue watching the actions of Zhang Ze and others on the screen.
At this time, they had come to a wooden door with six eyes painted on it.
"Hey, there are six eyes on this door, just like the machine lock on the iron door!"
The Dragon King pointed at the wooden door and asked, "Is it true that the key is in this room?"
"Don't worry, let's go check out other rooms."
Zhang Ze did not agree. He always felt that the eyes painted on the door must have some special meaning.
So, they came to the second wooden door with four eyes painted on it.
There are five eyes on the third wooden door, and one eye on the fourth wooden door...
Eventually, they looked at all six doors in the hallway, each with a different number of eyes painted on it.
"Six wooden doors, the number of eyes from one to six..." Zhang Ze muttered to himself, lost in thought.
"What do these eyes mean? Why are the numbers different?" The Dragon King looked confused.
He moved the knife and pondered for a moment, then said: "Perhaps it represents the number of eye keys hidden in the room?"
"Well, it's very possible." Zhang Ze nodded and said: "But if that's the case, it would be easiest for us to go directly to the six-eyes room and get the six-eyes key at once, but I don't think the Demon Realm merchant will let us Easy to get."
Without emotion, he continued to analyze: "So, the room with the most eye keys may have the most difficult puzzles and the most dangerous ones?"
"Well, that must be the case!"
Zhang Ze nodded. He looked at the wooden doors and said, "So, we can't go directly to the room with six eyes, but to the room with the fewest eyes. This is safer."
"The room with fewer eyes?" The Dragon King looked at it and said, "Then we have to go to the room with one, two, or three eyes."
"That's right, let's go!" Zhang Ze nodded, and they went straight to the room with an eye painted on it.
Opening the door, everyone walked into the house. They saw that there was a mirror in the center of the room, and nothing else.
Suddenly, there was a bang, and the door behind them was closed tightly. The Elf King stepped forward to try and found that the door was locked.
"Master, can I use force to open the door?"
The Elf King asked Zhang Ze for instructions, and Zhang Ze shrugged: "You can try it, but I think it's useless."
Sure enough, when the Elf King struck down with his sword, the wooden door was not damaged at all.
"It's the rules set by the Demon Realm merchant again." Shan Dao shook his head emotionlessly: "It seems that we can't get out of here unless we solve the puzzle."
"What does this mirror mean?" The Dragon King walked over and walked around the mirror. He didn't see anything unusual. It was just an ordinary mirror.
He looked up at the roof without emotion, narrowed his eyes and said, "Rakshasa, look."
Zhang Ze looked up and found that there were many rain shower heads lined up on the roof.
"I have a bad feeling." Fuhu snorted and said, "Is it possible that if we don't solve the mystery of this room, the sprinkler head above will spray water and extinguish our candles?"
"Then, the mother who is afraid of light will appear around us and harvest our lives!"
"What a design!"
Outside the screen, the Demon Realm businessman looked proud: "Thank you for the compliment."
Zhang Feng and Xiaoniaoyiren yelled at each other: "You are shameless!"
One night Zhiqiu felt curious: "A mirror...what is the mystery in this room?"
Tian Melancholy suddenly discovered something. She pointed to a certain place and said, "Wall! The clues are on the wall!"
Everyone looked and saw a huge eye painted with blood on the wall, staring coldly at Zhang Ze and the others.
"Candles, mirrors, eyes..." The giant clapped his hands and said, "I understand!"
On the screen, Zhang Ze also said the same thing.
"Use a mirror to reflect the light of a candle and shine it on your eyes! That must be it!"
After thinking about it, I also agreed with Zhang Ze's conjecture.
"So simple?" The Dragon King was surprised: "I thought it would take a lot of brain cells to solve this puzzle!"
"Don't forget, this is a room with one eye, and the puzzles won't be too difficult."
Zhang Ze was talking and operating at the same time. He held the candle and turned the mirror without emotion, and then reflected the candlelight to illuminate the eye on the wall.
The next moment, they saw their eyes change. Something gradually emerged from the central eyeball, and then fell to the ground with a clang.
It's an eye key!
"Haha! Success!" The Dragon King ran over excitedly and picked up the eye key.
At this time, several people suddenly heard a sigh of regret.
"Is there anyone else here?"
Zhang Ze immediately looked around, but except for a few of them, there was no one there.
Shandao Bubu guessed emotionally: "Perhaps it's the mother who is afraid of light! Because we solved the puzzle and didn't give her a chance to kill us, she sighed."
The Dragon King laughed and said: "She will continue to sigh after a while, because she will never have the chance to kill us!"
Click, the puzzle is solved, and the door opens.
"Let's go to the room with two eyes." Zhang Ze led everyone out of the room.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the candle in Zhang Ze's hand went out!
"Um?"
Zhang Ze paused and looked around in confusion. The corridor was closed and there were no windows. Where was the wind coming from?
Aisha said solemnly: "Master, the wind that blew out your candle just now is the same wind that blew out my magic flame before!"
"Could it be..."
Zhang Ze looked at the Dragon King: "Dragon King, come here and help me light the candle."
The Dragon King came over to help Zhang Ze light the fire, but no matter how hard he tried, Zhang Ze's candle could not be lit.
"I see."
Zhang Ze asked the Dragon King to stop and said with an ugly face: "We were tricked by the demon merchants!"
Shandao Buqing also realized this, and he sighed: "The rule set by the merchant in the Demon Realm is that every time you enter a room, one candle will be extinguished..."
"He expected that we would discover the secret of the eye and started with the least difficult room of the eye."
"In this way, we have wasted one candle, and there is only one left. In order to get all the eye locks, we can only challenge the second difficulty of the five-eye room."
"Hmph! What a trick!"
Outside the screen, the Demon Realm businessman smiled again: "Thank you again for the compliment."
"Shut up, profiteer!"
Everyone yelled in unison.
The difficulty of the Five Eyes Room will definitely increase a lot, but how difficult it is can only be known after entering the room.
Zhang Ze sighed and said: "No matter what, we have to get all the eye keys, and there are only nine minutes left."
So, several people pushed open the Five Eyes room with a heavy heart, and their eyes widened when they saw what was inside.
"Damn! There are so many mirrors!"
The Dragon King is about to collapse!
I saw dozens of mirrors scattered around the room. Some of them were placed on the floor, some were mounted on the walls, and some were even installed on the roof!
The eye with the key hidden in it is located on the floor in the center of the room.
"This... is simply unsolvable!" The Elf King shook his head repeatedly.
He started to calculate how to use these mirrors to refract the candlelight, but after thinking about it for a while, he was covered in sweat. It was too difficult!
Zhang Ze stared blankly at the mirrors, not knowing what he was thinking. Suddenly he said to the Elf King next to him: "Lend me your long sword."
