MTL - Welcome To the World of Strength [Unlimited Stream]-Chapter 166 maze
Frightened by Jiang Yu's terrifying thoughts, the shadow monster began to tremble, as if it was trembling with the box.
"But, that's Lord Hydera..."
Jiang Yu was a little puzzled: "But now it's just a dead Hydra, and it's the method you provided to kill it completely, why do you start to respect it now?"
The shadow monster stopped talking.
Jiang Yu said thoughtfully, "Besides this, what else can I find that belongs to the labyrinth of food?"
Jiang Yu already had a vague premonition that there was some connection between the npcs in the maze.
But what exactly it is, I am still not completely sure.
What Jiang Yu has now are the two eyes of the peacock and Hydera's body, and nothing else.
But she has already met four npcs.
For the three sisters, she changed the answer with her eyes, and for the river god, she also abandoned the ax and chose the position of the npc.
Now Jiang Yu can't judge whether her choice is right or wrong, but from now on, she feels that she will start collecting some things about npc.
After putting away a snake's head, Jiang Yu stood up, ready to set off in the next direction.
The blood that flowed from the place where the snake's head was removed corroded the land bit by bit, and it was very poisonous. If it was an ordinary person, let alone eating it, it would hurt him even if he touched it. But... the **** three-headed dog is no ordinary person.
It is said that the saliva of the three-headed dog is highly corrosive, so it should not be afraid of this.
With no burden in her heart, Jiang Yu left this area.
Then, in the next place she encountered a mad bull.
Jiang Yu:?
Before she could figure out what was going on, she saw the bull rampage in the maze.
The opponent did not attack Jiang Yu, so Jiang Yu was not in a hurry to kill the bull.
If he had met a bull before meeting Hydera, Jiang Yu might have regarded the bull as food for the three-headed dog, but now comparing the attitudes of Hydera and the bull, Jiang Yu thinks it should not be a bull.
It must have some other use.
Described in the words of the game, Hydera is a yellow name that can become a red name at any time, possessing instability. If Jiang Yu attacks it, the opponent will definitely fight back. If Jiang Yu provokes it, it will also Will definitely attack first.
In this case, there is nothing wrong with Jiang Yu making a move, and Hydera doesn't seem like a good person just from the image and legend.
But the bull is more like an irrational NPC with a green name. He will not attack or even ignore Jiang Yu, but just follow his inner thoughts and go crazy here.
Jiang Yu wasn't sure if her props could attack it, but she had no intention of killing the bull at the moment.
How about... capture him alive?
But the utility of props should be useless to npc.
Jiang Yu thought for a moment, then took out a rope.
It is a rope that can be used in a hundred sets, but it has no effect when used on a bull.
Although she was huge, her movements were nimble. Even Jiang Yu, who had been strengthened, could barely keep up with the speed of the bull.
But fortunately, the opponent is irrational, so after Jiang Yu set up some roadblocks, he successfully wrapped a rope around its neck.
The bull let out a moo, and after the violent impact but could not break free, he stopped slowly.
Jiang Yu said, "Should I take it with me?"
In case it is related to an npc, or the cow is lost by an npc, she can directly give the cow to the other party without returning.
After all, the maze is so big, it is very difficult to get back here.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu stopped hesitating and took the cow on the road.
Although the cow would go mad and go crazy from time to time, but because it still couldn't break free from Jiang Yu's strength, it had no choice but to follow Jiang Yu forward.
Jiang Yu shook her numb palms, her face was expressionless, but she was complaining.
Fortunately, she has great strength now, otherwise she would be led to run by the runaway bull.
In the sky that Jiang Yu couldn't see, she was actually gradually approaching the center of the maze, where a legendary monster with a head and a human body was imprisoned.
Minotaur.
Before approaching, Jiang Yu felt a strong breath, with a strong smell of blood, and her complexion became a little dignified.
Although Jiang Yu is not afraid of fighting with npcs, what she needs more now is rational npcs who can communicate.
And if the props don't work for npc, it means that Jiang Yu has to spend more time and energy, and the gain outweighs the loss.
But even so, Jiang Yu did not retreat, but walked over.
Along with the smell of blood, there were gradually more bones. Judging from the wreckage, there were adults and children.
Jiang Yu's eyebrows moved slightly.
Judging from the appearance of the bones, it obviously doesn't belong to the player, at least...not her companions or other players who entered this instance in the same batch.
More like the bones of an npc.
The only one who can "do" this is the Minotaur, the legendary monster who likes to eat virgins, right?
The small bones belonged to the virgins who enshrined it, and the big ones... maybe the warriors who were sent to destroy the monsters but died, or something.
Jiang Yu stopped and saw the image of an NPC about two meters tall with a bull's head on top of her head.
The opponent's head is obviously not exactly the same as that of an ordinary cow, it looks more violent, and even the bull's eyes are faintly red, which looks particularly terrifying.
Some of the teeth are exposed sharp teeth, which look like sharp knives and can easily tear apart a person's body.
When it saw Jiang Yu coming, it looked up.
"Have you seen Theseus?"
is the problem?
Jiang Yu said cautiously: "No."
The Minotaur obviously became more irritable, "What about Ariadne?"
Jiang Yu: "No."
Then, it reported some other names, none of which Jiang Yu knew or even heard of.
But combining the relationship between the first two names and it, Jiang Yu guessed that the latter name should also be a relative or acquaintance of the Minotaur.
After being denied by Jiang Yu one after another, the other party has fallen into a state of mania, and seems to be ready to attack at any time.
"Damn, hate, hate! They clearly said they would come to the maze to pick me up, why didn't they come, why did they leave me here alone? It's so painful, so lonely... want to kill people, want to eat people..."
Accompanied by the restless mood and the gradually lowering voice that became like a beast, it was the killing intent and attacking intention of the other party. However, at this moment, the bull led by Jiang Yu started a new round of madness, but this time Not running back, but running in the direction of the Minotaur.
Because the cow is a "prop" harvested by Jiang Yu, she didn't want the other party to die here before it could be used, so she subconsciously tried to pull the cow back.
However, to Jiang Yu's surprise, the Minotaur, who was about to lose his mind, suddenly calmed down after seeing the bull, and his violent aura calmed down a lot.
"Oh, God..." Its voice suddenly softened, and then, it firmly hugged the bull that lowered its head and aimed at it.
The originally powerful impact hit the Minotaur's arms, and it turned into a scene like throwing himself into a hug. The Minotaur was not shaken at all, and he was not even injured. The expression on his face seemed to be closed. It's the same as the bull's love, but in fact the bull is just bullying.
"God, look, it looks like me."
Jiang Yu: ...
yes. Of course it does.
Jiang Yu didn't want to talk now.
Sanity and joy are returning, and the Minotaur now has completely different faces from before.
It is like a loving mother at this moment—in other words, from the outside, the Minotaur should also be a male, with a male human body and a bull’s head—and is watching the bull in his arms gently.
"From today on, you will be my family and stay with me here, so that even if I can't get out here alone, I won't be lonely."
Jiang Yu really wanted to say that it has many neighbors and is not lonely at all.
But from the Minotaur's point of view, those neighbors probably cannot replace family members.
But... Strange, didn't the Minotaurs before see this bull? Obviously they are all in the maze.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu asked this question.
The Minotaur is now approachable and ready to answer any question.
"Hey, I'm born with a bad sense of direction. No matter which direction I start from, I will eventually return to the original road. I remember that the longest time I went out for ten minutes, I returned to the same place after ten minutes."
"..."
No wonder.
Probably because of being trapped in a maze in the story, this trait is also brought to it itself?
The Minotaur said happily: "In order to thank you for bringing me a family member, I decided to give you a gift. You must be able to use it better than me."
Jiang Yu's eyes lit up, and she decided to look at the gift before deciding whether to exchange it.
Minotaur took out a ball of thread from his body, Jiang Yu was slightly startled, her pupils shrank in surprise.
"this is…"
The Minotaur stroked the ball of thread lovingly, "This is a gift from my sister Ariadne. I have always regarded it as my sister and let it accompany me, but now I have a new family. I don’t need it anymore. My sister said that this thing can get out of the maze, so I’ll give it to you.”
Jiang Yu was a little puzzled, "If that's the case, then why did you..."
Minotaur said: "Because this ball of thread cannot be bent."
"what?"
"This ball of thread can only be used to guide the straight road. Once it turns around halfway, it will shrink back and cannot be used to get out of the maze."
Jiang Yu opened her eyes wide, as if she had vaguely sensed something.
Only for directing the straight way...
The shadow monster said before that to go to the place where the **** three-headed dog can only go straight, is there any connection between this and this?
Jiang Yu accepted the ball of thread.
But she didn't give up on the answer, she just asked tentatively: "By the way, I want to visit the **** three-headed dog, do you know how to find it?"
The Minotaur was a little surprised, "My God, you actually want to find the three-headed dog? But it is in the underworld, and humans may never come back after it has passed."
Jiang Yu nodded firmly, "Yes, I want to go."
Minotaur said: "You need some props to go there, otherwise you will not be able to reach the entrance of the underworld in human form."
Jiang Yu humbly asked: "Then what do you need?"
"The **** of thread used to guide the way, the eyes used to see the way, the food used to feed the three-headed dog, the coins used to bribe people who cross the river, and the jokes used to make Hades and his wife happy."
"In this way, you can pass successfully and meet Pluto successfully. As for coming back... Well, you still need those things in front, but if you leave, the joke is not enough, you need to replace you with other things, otherwise, Pluto is Won't let you go."
Jiang Yu took a deep breath and opened her eyes wide.
Right on.
At this moment, the vague speculation in her mind finally cleared away the fog and became clear.
It turns out that everything has its function, it just depends on whether the player can guess and use it properly.
If you use it well, you can go to the "door" smoothly. If you don't use it well, you will really be trapped in the maze.
At this moment, Jiang Yu was extremely thankful that she didn't make too many wrong choices. I'm even more glad I didn't kill the cow.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"I have the ball of thread, I have the eyes, and I barely have the food." Jiang Yu showed these things.
but other...
After sorting out the connection, Jiang Yu was even more sure that the player's things would not work.
Therefore, the coin should correspond to the peacock's treasure. When she helps the peacock get back the lost treasure, she should ask for one or two gold coins.
But jokes and presents in place of yourself...
"Is there anything else here?"
The Minotaur did not answer, but pointed to his eyes: "These eyes can't help you see the way. It must be the eyes of the three sisters of Cinderella. But they only have one eye, which is very precious. I'm afraid I won’t give it to you. Of course, you can replace it with your own eyes.”
The eyes of the three sisters?
Jiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, unable to tell what mood she was in.
Instead, she could get...in exchange for the six eyes of a peacock.
But what did Jiang Yu do then?
She seems to have kept only the peacock's eyes. Because at that time Jiang Yu thought that the peacock's eyes would be useful, so she didn't hand them all over.
In this way... yes, there is already something useful for Peacock, so of course the eyes can't be used for her.
But fortunately, it doesn't matter much, she can go back to exchange.
Now only jokes and presents remain.
Then Minotaur said again: "If it's a joke, you can ask Sphinx King."
Jiang Yu was taken aback, and somehow it sounded familiar, "Sphinx gold?"
"Yeah, you use the answer to the question to exchange his joke. I think it will be a joke that both Pluto and his wife will like."
The author has something to say:
The bull is the bull in the story of Hercules, although it has nothing to do with the original bull...
Sphinx King is the sphinx who asks you "what walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?"
Hurry up, get it done now!
