MTL - Welcome To the World of Strength [Unlimited Stream]-Chapter 167 maze
Almost all the customs clearance props are placed in front of Jiang Yu, and she only needs to pick them up by herself.
At this point, Jiang Yu finally saw the light.
And from the Minotaur's words, she also realized that entering the gate of the underworld might not help her leave, because by definition, it should only be regarded as an "entrance".
In the real world, it is also calculated from the entrance, but in the dungeon, this definition is very rigid. Therefore, Jiang Yu still has to come out of the underworld and go through an "entrance", then the entrance will turn into an "exit" before she can really leave the maze.
After thinking this through, Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway... soon.
"Then do you know where the Sphinx King is?"
Minotaur pointed out a location for Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu thanked it and prepared to leave.
The Minotaur said goodbye to the mad bull with joy in his arms.
Jiang Yu was naturally impressed by the story about Sphinx King.
Legend has it that it is a monster with a human head and a sphinx body. It will stop passers-by and ask them questions. If they cannot answer, it will eat passers-by.
Later, a person answered the question, and Sphinx King jumped off the cliff in shame.
Although there are some slots, but these are not important.
Judging from the direction of the story, combined with the previous story of the river god, Jiang Yu thought that the question Sphinx King asked her should be the typical "what has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening".
The standard answer is "people".
But... is that really the case?
In the copy world, is it really that simple?
Jiang Yu fell into a rare anxiety.
If the answer is wrong, then she will be eaten, and no props can save Jiang Yu.
Although she would not die, Jiang Yu didn't dare to think about what would happen if she was eaten.
So the answer to this question still needs to be thought about.
When walking the maze, Jiang Yu was thinking about this, so much so that she almost forgot that she was still carrying a shadow monster.
Sensing Jiang Yu's silence, the shadow monster fidgeted instead.
"Hey, why don't you talk?"
Jiang Yu came back to her senses, reached out and knocked on the box.
"I'm thinking about something."
In addition to the answer, she also needs to prepare a gift.
Do I need to use the contents of the dungeon as a gift? Or should she just bring her own stuff?
Jiang Yu asked it without hope: "Do you know what Pluto likes?"
Shadow monster: "It should be something that likes the underworld, and likes his wife."
The corners of Jiang Yu's lips twitched, "Well, that's a good point."
Shadow monster: "Why do you ask this? Are you thinking about presents?"
Jiang Yu didn't shy away, "Yes."
Shadow Monster: "Although... I don't know what Pluto likes, but I know what he hates!"
The other party's voice was swearing, and Jiang Yu couldn't help raising her eyebrows curiously, "Oh? Then tell me."
Shadow monster: "Pluto hates me! So when you go to see Pluto, don't take me with you."
Jiang Yu narrowed her eyes thoughtfully, "Then...why does Pluto hate you?"
The shadow monster hesitated and couldn't answer.
It said in a panic: "Ah, that's because I'm a thief. Pluto is afraid that I will steal his things, so of course he doesn't like me."
Jiang Yu's footsteps stopped slowly.
Of course she would not believe what the shadow monster said, she was just thinking about why the other party said that.
Jiang Yu was thoughtful, recalling the abnormalities shown by the other party since meeting him.
My own props can catch shadow monsters. To some extent, shadow monsters are not a member of the maze.
It is precisely because of this that in the eyes of the other party, it feels that there is no maze here, and they are free to come and go.
This shows that it is not forced to be sent by dungeons like other npcs.
It came here by itself.
And shadow monsters can also see the way to the underworld.
Jiang Yu took a deep breath slowly, and felt that there was an unbelievable guess in her mind, but it seemed to be very suitable for the current situation.
Combined with the shadow monster saying that Pluto doesn't like it, it is also afraid that Jiang Yu will take it to meet Pluto...
But the shadow monster knew that Pluto liked his wife.
The emotion of the shadow monster when answering the question seems to be subconsciously answering, not thinking about giving his own answer.
it…
Is there any connection with the underworld and Pluto?
Did Jiang Yu actually find the so-called gift a long time ago?
The shadow monster panicked even more, "Why don't you speak?"
Jiang Yu smiled lightly: "No, it's nothing."
After spending some time, Jiang Yu met the legendary Sphinx King after turning the corner.
The other party was lazily licking its paws. Although it used a human head, it did not violate harmony.
When it saw Jiang Yu approaching, it stood up and seemed ready.
Seeing Jiang Yu getting closer, Sphinx Gold was about to speak, but Jiang Yu rushed ahead of it and said: "You know, there is a thing, the infancy of young people, the youth of middle-aged people, and the whole past of old people." , so what is it?"*
Sphinx King was a step late: "Do you know what walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?"
As the other party asked questions, a breeze blew not far away, as if there was something contained in it, which made Jiang Yu's originally brisk mood slowly sink.
Fortunately, she was ahead of the curve.
As if he didn't expect that Jiang Yu would ask a question, and he was a step ahead of him, the air suddenly became quiet, and even the wind stopped.
Obviously, Sphinx King on the opposite side was lost in thought.
"I'll have to think about it."
Because Jiang Yu asked the question first, it made sense for it to answer first.
This is a brain teaser that Jiang Yu saw on the Internet, and it seems that there is no fixed answer.
It can be said to be yesterday, but it can also be said to be life.
In short, as long as you can explain it in a reasonable language, you can actually apply it to it. To be honest, it’s a chicken thief.
Like the trap of the Sphinx King's riddle.
Jiang Yu is not sure whether the species "human" is the only answer that fits the answer. What if Sphinx King really came up with such a weird species? So she didn't take the risk and therefore answered the question with the same question.
As long as Sphinx King can't answer, then Jiang Yu doesn't have to answer.
No, or even if Sphinx King answered, Jiang Yu could judge it to be wrong.
Of course, the premise of this series of operations is that Sphinx King is willing to answer and is willing to exchange answers for answers.
Otherwise, Jiang Yu would have to answer the question.
However, after thinking about it, Jiang Yu felt that this method would work.
Because in mythology, Sphinx King is a monster that behaves very well.
After a while, Sphinx King slowly shook his head.
"I have no idea."
Jiang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the other party replied that she also had a way to gag, but this situation is the easiest now.
Jiang Yu tentatively said, "About your answer, I have an answer in my heart."
"Oh?" Sphinx King raised his head, a little interested.
Jiang Yu thought about the words, and said as rigorously as possible: "First, there are such creatures or animals in the world, but I have never seen them. Therefore, it can achieve the kind of form transformation you mentioned. Second, It is a human being. Early, middle and late refers to the adulthood and old age of a baby. Third... Early, middle and late simply refers to time, so my answer is the shadow. In order to cater to the question, you can also use tools to make the shadow pose state."
Sphinx King was silent.
Jiang Yu slowly took a breath.
Is there any loophole?
Sphinx King nodded, "Your answer is correct. You answered my question, but I failed to answer your question."
Jiang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems... is she thinking too much? In fact, the standard answer is just "people"?
But anyway, it's good to be able to answer.
Jiang Yu said: "I don't have any request, I just hope that you can give me a joke that can make Pluto and his wife laugh."
"Oh, a joke, yes."
After all, Sphinx Gold delivered its joke.
After Jiang Yu listened...it didn't seem so funny?
"Are you sure this can make Pluto and his wife laugh?" Why is she a little worried, or is her smile too high?
Sphinx King nodded affirmatively, "Don't worry, it will definitely work."
So Jiang Yu took the joke and left.
Then, she abducted back to the peacock's territory.
Because I didn't choose to ask for gold coins before, it may not be suitable to ask for gold coins in the past, so Jiang Yu thought about exchanging with some things.
She asked the peacock if there was anything he wanted.
Peacock said: "To be honest, I don't have anything in particular I want."
Jiang Yu said, "Why don't I tell you a joke."
Peacock nodded: "That's fine."
Jiang Yu was just saying it casually, she was already thinking about how to exchange with Peacock, but she didn't expect the other party to agree.
Jiang Yu:? ? There is such a good thing?
Sphinx King didn't just give Jiang Yu a joke, so Jiang Yu randomly picked out a joke and told the peacock.
I don't know if I can make peacocks laugh.
To Jiang Yu's surprise, although the peacock didn't smile, he nodded in satisfaction after listening to it, with more to say.
"Yes, it's a good joke."
Jiang Yu looked at it, and asked tentatively, "Is it because the people in your labyrinth have never heard jokes?"
Peacock: "It's not wrong to say that. It's just that only Sphinx King has jokes, but if you want to find it to listen to jokes, you have to answer questions. Moreover, we can't find it."
Having said this, Peacock shook his head.
Jiang Yu was in a complicated mood, got the two coins she exchanged, turned around and left.
After that, she found the three sisters again, and exchanged the two peacock eyes in her hand for the other's eye.
Jiang Yu took a deep breath, threw out the ball of thread as Minotaur said, then put the eyeball in front of her eyes, and opened one eye.
The situation in front of her has undergone earth-shaking changes in her eyes.
The maze walls made of bluestone bricks disappeared in an instant, and in Jiang Yu's sight, there was only the red road extending from the wool of the thread ball.
Jiang Yu took a deep breath and walked slowly along the woolen thread.
Although her steps were slow but gentle, she made no mistakes step by step, and walked forward strictly along the border of the wool.
Because of having to open one eye and close one eye, Jiang Yu's eyes are already a little uncomfortable.
And it is really uncomfortable to look out through one eyeball.
The surrounding scene is still somewhat blurred, only the road in front of me is clear.
Her eyes were sore, and some faint tears came out.
Jiang Yu took a deep breath and didn't play it automatically.
As she walked further, the surrounding air began to undergo extreme changes, with biting cold on one side and scorching heat on the other.
It's really worthy of the feeling of ice and fire.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yu felt her steps getting heavier and heavier, and the tip of her nose seemed to smell a special cool air, some indescribable smell.
Then, there seemed to be the sound of rocks moving and iron chains in my ears.
When Jiang Yu looked again, the scene in front of her had changed drastically.
Stepping on the red-burned stone, it seems that magma will splash out from time to time.
It is surrounded by a background of black smoke and stones, and on both sides are ghosts hovering.
Jiang Yu looked in front of her. The main road led to an opened, huge iron gate, and there seemed to be a grimace flashing at the top.
In front of the door, there is a huge three-headed dog lying in one body.
There is no doubt that this is Cerberus who guards the gates of hell.
Jiang Yu took a deep breath to calm herself down.
She tentatively took a step forward, and soon attracted the attention of the three-headed dog.
The three-headed dog stood up and stared at her covetously. The saliva flowed from the side of the teeth and made a "sizzling" corrosion sound when it landed on the ground.
Jiang Yu didn't waste much time, because she knew that even if she said something, the other party would not listen.
Watching the gate is their designated duty.
Jiang Yu took out the box containing Hydera's head, and then ran the head out.
Because the shape and size are close to the oval rugby ball, it spins in the air when it is thrown out.
At that moment, the three heads were drawn out of sight, and then subconsciously ran towards the place where the head landed.
Jiang Yu inexplicably felt that this scene looked familiar, but she didn't study it carefully, but walked into the gate while the three-headed dog was not paying attention.
There is darkness in front of Jiang Yu, but fortunately there is only one road, so there is no need to worry about going wrong.
Soon, the light in front of her slowly recovered, and what appeared in front of her was a very wide river.
Jiang Yu looked down, thinking that this river could be compared to the Wangchuan River?
In short, it's better for her not to try to pollute the river.
There was the sound of water flowing not far away, and Jiang Yu looked back, and saw an old man walking towards him staggeringly.
"Girl, are you going to cross the river?"
Jiang Yu nodded.
The other party said: "I just want to take my boat, but I have to pay the boat fare."
Jiang Yu took out a gold coin, "I wonder if this is enough?"
The old man nodded, "Enough, enough."
Jiang Yu boarded the boat.
