Chapter 51 - Song of the Wind Song (10)
Tang Cuo’s choice to take the tunnel was actually inspired by Jin Cheng.
Jin Cheng wants to lead Peter with a fake news, while Tang Cuo is considering the surprise in the tunnel that Aesop said. His main task is to send Baz back to the Ivy League office, but once it is sent, the task may change. Under the system’s limitations, whether Tang Cuo can return to the tunnel becomes a problem.
The best way is to check the authentic things on the way back.
But there is another problem here. Tang Cuo has walked through the tunnel, there is no fork in the tunnel, and there is no trace of the magic circle. It is unremarkable. Where is the so-called surprise?
After the Ivy League took over the tunnel, it must have been carefully checked, but there was no news.
So, Tang Cuo noticed Jin Cheng’s plan on the carriage, and after seeing it, he decided to use Buzz to solve authentic puzzles.
Tang Cuo’s conjecture about authenticity coincided with Jin Cheng. From last night to now, he has been thinking about where the missing bodies went, and where Peter was hiding until he heard Aesop’s words.
If there is a network of tunnels extending in all directions underground, then everything will make sense. Aesop asked Tangcuo to go back to the tunnel to check it again, which means that there is a route to other places in this tunnel.
However, the path that neither Tangcuo nor the Ivy League can find, must be hidden deep enough. The fastest way is to let the enemy expose it.
When the carriage was attacked, Tangcuo took Baz to the tunnel, which was reasonable. The Rose sect should not have guessed that Aesop had exposed the secrets of the tunnels, so they are very likely to capture Baz through the tunnels.
This was unexpected.
So Tang Cuo also intends to surprise the other party.
In the dull tunnel, the magic lamp elongated the figure of the two.
Tang Cuo didn’t walk fast, and struck the wall with his sword handle while walking. Although he made a game to attract people, it is still unknown whether the other party will come, so Tang Cuo decided to look for himself.
Buzz asked curiously, “Theodore, what are you doing?”
Tangcuo “There may be something hidden in the tunnel.”
“Oh.” Buzz came to this place for the first time and looked around. Tang Cuo’s deliberately slower pace also gave him time to look around, but he didn’t see anything famous for a long time, so he continued to ask, “Theodore, where is this? How have I never heard of such a place?” ?”
Without waiting for Tang Cuo to answer, he scratched his head again and said, “Should I not ask more?”
“It’s okay.” Tang Cuo didn’t say much.
The deeper he is in this story, the more he feels like a real world. Buzz is different from Madoka, unlike handsome, from those strange creatures of Devil City, he has his own story and his emotions, which makes it difficult for Tang Cuo to treat him as an nc.
And it’s not just Buzz, everyone in this copy is like that.
Perhaps the mystery of the role-playing copy lies in the truth.
“Baz, do you remember when we first met?” Tang Cuo asked.
“Remember.” Buzz opened the conversation happily. “Theodore, you have always been a heroic and kind knight. At that time, my illness was just fine, and I had no savings. I had to take the long-distance delivery work. You know This is much more profitable than working in a tavern, but my body is not too good. The heavy goods are quickly crushing my back. You came to help me.”
Speaking of which, Buzz frowned, “A distinguished Mr. Knight delivered a case of wine for me. When I mentioned this to everyone, they didn’t believe me. But it’s okay, Theodore, this can’t change what we are. The fact of friends. We are friends, right?”
Tangcuo “Yes.”
Buzz is very happy, he is happy to have a minstrel and a knight to be friends. He always remembered to hang the new jam pie from Babe House, and said again, “Theodore, did you go with Lancelot? That’s delicious.”
Tang Cuo shook his head. He and Jin Cheng were busy with their tasks and did not go to the streets to find good food.
Baz was slightly sorry, and then said, “Then the next three of us will eat together. I will get my reward in a few days. Although not much, a few jam pies are still affordable!” “
The tunnel is very long, and they are not fast. After half an hour, neither of them walked far. In the middle, Tangcuo saw a rose sect sign on the wall, and asked Buzz if he knew it, Buzz shook his head.
For ordinary people, the Rose Sect is still a very strange name.
Keep going.
Ten minutes later, Tangcuo stopped. According to the calculation, it should be approaching the edge of the white leaf area, but the tunnel is not any different.
Is it a wrong judgment?
Or did Aesop deliberately tease him?
It was at this moment that a sudden gust of wind blew through the tunnel, blowing out the magic lamp. Tang Cuo was instantly alert and pulled his sword to protect Buzz behind him.
Changeable things happen in the blink of an eye.
“Ah!” Buzz behind exclaimed suddenly.
Fortunately, Tang Cuo always remembered the real purpose of the enemy. Without saying anything, he immediately grabbed Buzz’s wrist and cut his sword at the back of him—a wall suddenly appeared on the wall behind Buzz, a man wearing a black magic robe Grabbed his other wrist in an attempt to take the person away.
Tang Cuo cut off with a sword, but the man didn’t expect Tang Cuo to react so quickly, so he had to retreat temporarily.
A magical scene appeared. After the man retreated into the fork, the fork disappeared automatically. There are only Tangcuo and Baz in the dull tunnel, as if everything just happened never happened.
“Just, was that just that? Magic?” Buzz was surprised and even forgot the danger he had just encountered.
Tang Cuo frowned, but did not answer. There was indeed a subtle magic wave when the fork appeared and disappeared, but now it is gone, even if Tang Cuo put his hand on the place where the fork appeared just now, he did not feel anything.
He slashed hard against the wall again with a sword, and the wall was broken, exposing the hard stones inside.
The fork is gone, which may mean that it is active.
There is no way to determine the specific location of the channel that can be moved. The secret of channel opening is in the opponent’s hands. There is no solution unless they break in when the channel appears.
Tang Cuo clenched his sword tightly, thinking for a few seconds, and immediately took Buzz away.
Now that you know the authentic secret, the primary goal now is to complete the main task and let the plot go on.
But the enemy obviously didn’t want Tang Cuo to leave with this secret.
“Boom–” The fork road flashed in front again, the magic attack was released at the same time, and the fire burst into the face.
Too late to retreat, Tangcuo immediately crossed the sword in front of him, and the Holy Light flashed on the sword. A transparent light shield engraved with complicated magic patterns popped out of the sword, rotating and zooming in front of the two.
This is the skill triggered by Tang Cuo’s wiping his blood on the sword when confronting Aesop. He later found it in the system panel while resting in Baz’s rental house. The name is very easy to understand and is called-Holy Light Protection shield.
The flame hit the shield, and the strong energy blew Tangcuo’s clothes to hunt, but no trace of flame could pass through the shield.
The enemy didn’t anticipate this move, and there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, and then he entered the passage again and disappeared. Tang Cuo did not dare to relax in any way. He shook his sword and took back his shield. Yu Guang kept watching around.
Suddenly, “clang!”
Tang Cuo turned around and hit a big sword that he had just cut.
This time, the passage flashed behind the two.
Buzz was hiding behind Tang Cuo, daring not to move away or too close. Seeing the cold light flashing over the sword, he almost mentioned his throat with a heart, and his body was stiff.
But the other party was prepared, and it was the match between the swordsman and the magician. One restrained Tangcuo, and the other went straight to Buzz. I don’t know if there is any in the dark, and there is a crisis.
“Theodore!” Buzz exclaimed.
Tangcuo started the swordsman’s attack and turned back to defend. His movements were quick, and Fang Cun’s distance was used by him to sprint, pulling Buzz back only in the blink of an eye.
Of course, such abnormal use of skills made his brain a little dizzy. Sprinting and stagnation, shaking dizzy.
Tang Cuo’s face became pale.
Buzz’s face was also white and scared, because Tang Cuo’s sword was standing on his neck, and as long as he lowered his head, he could sweep the cold glowing blade, which was cold and terrifying.
“West, Theodore?” Buzz’s throat was dry.
The enemy was also shocked and looked at Tang Cuo in disbelief.
Tang Cuo was expressionless, his hand holding the sword was a little tighter, and the tone was cold, “Don’t move, I will kill him if you move again.”
The whole tunnel suddenly had a needle drop.
Only the system sound of “ding, ding” sounded in Tang Cuo’s brain. This was the system prompting him to violate the human settings. But Tang Cuo ignored it and remained calm.
At this moment, the other party’s magician suddenly chuckled, put away his consternation, and said, “Don’t think of bluffing me, you dare not do it!”
But as soon as his words fell, Baz had a blood stain on his neck. Tang Cuo raised his eyebrows, a hint of indifference appeared on the handsome and upright face of Theodore, “You can try.”
“You!” The other person’s face was blue, “What the **** do you want? He is your companion!”
Tang Cuo “If you let him fall into your hands, you might as well kill him. What do you want to take him to do? Continue your evil business? I don’t think he will be more happy than death on your hands.”
In this way, the tone in Tang Cuo’s brain weakened.
Tang Cuo touched the key and continued, “I will not let my friend become a tool for spreading evil. I would rather kill him and revenge him.”
At the same time, Tang Tso’s other hand secretly landed on Baz’s back and told him it was only a tactic.
After writing the words, the sound of “ding, ding” completely disappeared.
The enemy is completely angry, but not only for Tang Cuo’s threat to them, but for his “evil”, “You foolish people, you can never see the true light. Your friend is already dead , Killed in misery on the cold winter night in the white leaves area, but he is still standing here now, why?”
“Because he received eternal life from the immortal king.”
Hearing this, Buzz opened his eyes in amazement and even forgot that a sword was still in his neck, eager to ask what was going on. As soon as he moved, the blood ran out more, exuding a faint breath of time.
“Is it.” Tang Cuo’s tone was cold, but he grabbed Baz’s hand and used his own strength to call Baz’s reason back. He could feel that Buzz was terrified, his hands were shaking, and he wanted to turn back to draw a glimmer of hope from Tangcuo, but the sword was still on his neck.
What should I do next?
Tang Cuo set his nerves and fixed his eyes on the other side, saying, “How do I know if you are telling the truth or not, a knight who always follows the facts.”
“You can see it with your own eyes. As long as you are willing to get lost, you can also receive the blessing of eternal life and follow the immortal king to create a great and immortal cause.”
Perhaps Tang Cuo’s question confounded the magician’s anger. He opened his arms and smiled in confusion. When referring to the words “the undead king”, the admiration and fanaticism in that eye are like the fire of the prairie, as if it can burn everything.
The two sides are deadlocked and the atmosphere is frozen.
For a long time, Tang Cuo froze, “I want to see it with my own eyes.”
At this time, the channel was not closed, the magician and the swordsman looked at each other, letting out the way together, and let Tangcuo enter with Buzz. They let it be very cautious, with joy and doubt in their hearts.
Tang Cuo is also very cautious, holding Baz not letting go, but this makes the two a little relieved.
The two sides deliberately kept a distance.
Where Tangcuo and Buzz couldn’t see, the magician desperately gave the swordsman a look—what about helping? What about the rest? Why are we only two!
The swordsman was also worried. The helper who was supposed to arrive as planned did not come, and he must have been dragged down. This suddenly made him feel a little bad.
