Three minutes is a short time, and this ghost place is unfamiliar to people. It is not enough for Austin to escape. He can only temporarily find a small gap that is not flooded and get into it.
After entering, I realized that there was a cave inside. After passing through the gap, there was another hall, which was much smaller than the previous one. The surrounding walls were filled with huge boxes.
"Treasure room?" Austin ran towards a box, trying to find something to plug the gap, otherwise water would come here sooner or later.
The nearest box was filled with scimitars and swords, which had lost their luster and did not look like artifacts. Austin didn't bother to take a second look and opened the next box directly.
"Hey, have you never participated in adventures or read adventure novels? There might be monsters like guardians in this kind of treasure room." Mariano joked.
"It's too late, just have it."
The water has seeped in, so we need to speed up.
"Are you stupid? You just lost your mind, didn't you? Isn't this the gap in the door? It must be a trap!"
Austin looked back and saw that the gap was square and had obvious traces of artificial carving. Mariano was indeed right.
The traps in the treasure room are easy to find. Seeing the stone door slowly closing, Austin's heart that had been hanging around was finally half relieved.
"Still inexperienced." Mariano said earnestly, "There will be many training opportunities in the future. You must seize them. Otherwise, how can you get rid of the shackles of fate with your condition?"
Austin sighed, put aside Mariano's preaching, and turned his attention to other boxes.
In order to guard against possible dangers, he first picked a handy knife from the first box he opened.
"I think it would be better to find the exit now."
Austin did not agree with Mariano’s statement: “I am here, and I want to know what treasures are hidden here.”
"Okay, I'd also like to know. After all, I don't remember anything about what happened before being sealed. It would be nice if you could help me recall it."
It seems that because of revisiting her old place, Mariano talked more today.
Austin didn't pay much attention to these useless emotions, and just opened the box and hunted for treasures.
"By the way, the monsters you encountered before are actually quite magical. They can switch freely between reality and reality, and use this to dissimilate other items. Perhaps Accordionist Kaka took a fancy to this and taught them illusion-related abilities. ?”
"When I was locked up with them, I often saw them transform into other strange things."
Austin was excited and slowly retracted his hand that reached out to the wooden box.
"Like these boxes?"
"Like these boxes."
As soon as Mariano finished speaking, the wooden box in front of Austin opened with a "snap". A row of sharp teeth suddenly appeared from the mouth of the box, and a long tongue spurted out, wrapped around his waist, and tried to push him towards the door. Pull inside.
"Damn it, you didn't tell me earlier!"
"Didn't I tell you to leave immediately from the beginning? Do you still think I'm joking with you if I don't suffer some loss?"
Austin cursed in his heart, moving his hands little by little, and when the tongue was entangled, he slashed it with the knife.
Click——ding——
I don't know whether it was because the tongue was too tough or the knife was too rotten, but after one slash, the blade actually broke into two halves.
Numb, completely numb.
But life is still life, so Austin repeated his old tricks and activated the mark on his wrist.
Three cards flew out and stopped in front of him. One of them had been turned over and was unselectable. Austin's heart sank, and he tremblingly selected the one on the left, and then looked at the large bag that appeared out of thin air in his hand. Jin Coin was lost in thought.
"I-fuck-" Austin screamed, and in a hurry, he grasped the mouth of the bag with both hands and slammed the gold coin bag into the box.
333 pirate gold coins are not a small amount. If they were smashed hard enough, there might be a hole in the deck of the August Lion.
The tongue was in pain and loosened softly. Austin took the opportunity to break free and rolled to the ground next to him. The monster actually grew legs from the bottom of the box and chased after him step by step.
"It seems that your mark ability needs to be collected." Mariano analyzed it at this time, "I guess it should be a random card from the things you encounter related to the gods every once in a while. I think There is a cooling time or special conditions to reshuffle the cards.”
"What's the use of what you said now?" Austin rolled around and stood up, jumped to the box containing the swords in a few steps, took out four or five swords and threw them at the monster.
"The transformation into a sea monster should be related to the ability of your sea monster illustrated book. The pirate gold coins should be Baier Island. I don't know about the fraud pocket watch. Can you try it?"
The thrown sword couldn't stop the monster even half a step. Austin was heartbroken, ran and opened all the boxes in the room.
At this moment, three more "mimic monsters" appeared in the hall, all running towards Austin with their mouths wide open.
"Are you crazy?" Mariano was startled and asked in confusion.
"Since it's going to be used, let's solve it together!" Austin laughed with the idea that either you die or I live, and activated the mark, "Next is my turn!"
"Draw a card!"
The only usable gray card turned into smoke and dissipated.
"The deceptive pocket watch can pause everyone's time except yourself for twenty seconds, and then pause your own time for twenty seconds."
Austin smiled slightly: "Is that so? That's enough!"
The countdown in his eyes reached 19. Austin picked up the tip of a knife scattered on the ground and started running wildly.
18
Austin kicked open the upper jaw of the first Mimic, held the tip of the knife with both hands and stabbed it hard, pulled out the tip of the knife and used the force to roll over to the other one.
12
Ignoring the blood on his hands, he cut off the second Mimic's tongue with the blade, and then lowered the tip of the knife to the bottom.
7
Returning to where he was, he picked up three sword blades, slid to the third one, inserted his hands into it, and nailed it to the ground.
1
He took off the last sword blade in his mouth and nailed it down with his tongue.
"Perfect!"
0
Austin remained stuck in place in a strange posture, and four Mimic Monsters fell one after another.
"Hey, it looks like it's time to stop." Mariano said thoughtfully.
6
It had been normal before, but suddenly there was a movement in the box containing the sword, and a tongue came out of the open box.
11
"Oh, it's over." Mariano began to think seriously about whether she should come and save her.
14
His tongue wrapped around Austin's ankle, stretched it, and then dragged him into the box.
17
Austin had half of his body inside the box, and Mariano had already begun to rush here.
19
The mark on Austin's wrist lit up.
20
The stoppage was lifted, but Austin was left with only one head and two hands outside.
"Hold on, I'll be there soon! Don't die!" Mariano said in a deep voice, "There are no other cards in your deck, and the cooldown time is not up yet!"
"That's not necessarily the case!" Austin took a deep breath.
The mark lights up, and the cards appear one by one. A new one suddenly appears next to the three unselectable cards!
Shouted, "The formula for victory has been formed!"
"My turn!"
Austin wiped the mark on his left wrist with his right hand.
"Draw a card!"
The Mimic was frightened by such a loud sound, and his little mind couldn't figure out why this guy was so loud even though he was about to die.
The latest card slowly turned over, revealing the text on it: [Gargoyle's Cry].
Austin has nothing to fear anymore. The worst he can do is die anyway, so he might as well die in a cool way. He didn't even think about the effect or anything, so he directly chose this card.
The smoke dissipated in front of his eyes, and Austin smiled and said: "The next round will be my victory!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Austin was petrified on the spot.
True petrification.
Austin turned directly into a stone statue.
The Mimic jumped over and rolled its tongue, trying to pull it into his mouth, but found that the weight was several times heavier and he couldn't pull it any further.
The duck that reached the mouth couldn't fly anymore. If it couldn't be pulled back, it would go straight to the mouth. If it bites it, several of its teeth will break off.
Austin wanted to cry, but at least he survived.
temporary.
