NOVEL NEXT Chapter 413 Looking for the Ancient Key
The four of them were very surprised and confused after hearing this mysterious voice. They started looking around for the source of the sound, but saw no one.
Lan Caidi calmed down and summoned up the courage to ask, "Who is talking?"
"I am the guardian of this castle." The mysterious voice replied.
"Guardian?" the female magician continued to ask, "Why do you want to stop us?"
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" the mysterious voice asked.
The female magician looked at the other three companions, then took a deep breath and replied:
"We are here to find treasure. Someone told us that there is a precious treasure map hidden in this castle, and we want to find it."
The mysterious voice was silent for a while, and then said:
"The treasure exists, but it is not easy for you to find. This castle is full of dangers and traps. If you are not careful, you will die here."
"Then why don't you just tell us where the treasure is?" the soldier asked.
"Because I cannot violate the rules." The mysterious voice said, "Only if you pass the test and prove that you are qualified to possess the treasure, can I tell you its location."
"Then what should we do to pass the test?" the female magician asked.
“You need to find three ancient keys in the castle, which are hidden in different places.
Only by finding these three keys can the door to the treasure be opened. "The mysterious voice continued.
After hearing this, the four people looked at each other and nodded.
"Do you know where the dragons here are?" Lan Caidi continued to ask.
"Find the key to unlock the treasure, and the dragon will naturally appear in front of you. I wish you good luck."
The mysterious voice disappeared immediately after speaking.
As the mysterious sound disappeared, the big net covering them began to slowly loosen.
The blue butterfly, female magician, warrior and archer climbed out of the big net, ready to look for clues in the castle and meet the next challenge.
The four people returned to the castle. The layout of the castle quietly changed, and they groped forward in the castle.
Suddenly, the road ahead became intricate and complicated, like a huge maze.
The doors on the wall kept changing positions, making them disoriented.
They must solve the puzzle and find the correct path, or they will be trapped in the maze forever.
The four of them continued to move forward in the maze of the castle, carefully passing through room after room.
Suddenly, they heard a low roar that echoed through the maze. The sound was full of terror and majesty, making their hearts beat faster.
The four Blue Butterflies looked around nervously for the source of the sound, but the curves and forks in the maze made them lose their way.
At this moment, a huge monster appeared in front of them. It was huge and exuded an evil aura, and its eyes flashed red as if it wanted to devour them.
The four of them recoiled in horror, but they knew they couldn't let fear control them.
They must find a way to deal with this threat. The magician quickly cast his magic and tried to protect everyone with a shield.
The warrior clenched the sword in his hand, preparing for a desperate fight with the monster.
The archer calmly aimed at the monster's eye and shot a precise arrow. The arrow hit the monster's eye, causing it to roar in pain.
Taking advantage of the monster's temporary loss of vision, Lancai Die used her speed and agility to get around to the monster's back.
She discovered a mechanism to control the monster and pressed the button without hesitation. The mechanism made a clicking sound, and the monster suddenly stopped moving.
Its eyes returned to normal, and the evil aura on its body gradually dissipated.
The four people breathed a sigh of relief. They successfully defeated the challenge of the monster and found a key in the maze.
This key gives them new hope and they believe it will lead them to the right path.
They continued looking for an exit and entered a basement.
There was an old atmosphere in the basement, and the oil lamps on the walls flickered faintly.
They moved forward cautiously, but accidentally triggered a mechanism.
Suddenly, poisonous gas gushes out from all directions and quickly fills the entire basement.
They were surrounded by poisonous gas and it became difficult to breathe. They quickly covered their mouths and noses. Time was running out and they had to quickly find the switch to control the gas, otherwise their lives would be seriously threatened.
In a tense atmosphere, they began to look around for clues about the switch.
They carefully observed their surroundings, examining buttons and pipes on the walls. After some hard work, Lancai Die found a control panel hidden in the corner.
She quickly rushed over and tried to unlock the switch that controlled the gas. However, the combination lock on the panel put her in trouble.
As time passed, the poisonous gas became stronger and stronger, and their lives hung on a thread.
She closed her eyes and casually pressed an invisible code in her heart. The poisonous gas stopped emitting instantly, and they turned around to find a giant spider.
These spiders have powerful attack power and venom, and they quickly attacked the four people.
They must find ways to avoid or defeat these spiders to keep themselves safe.
The soldier brandished his sword, trying to fend off the spider's attack.
The magician casts magic and creates a shield to protect everyone. The archer fired his arrow accurately, aiming at the spider's vitals.
Lancai Die uses fire-based supernatural attacks.
They worked closely together, used their respective specialties, and launched a fierce battle with the spider.
After a hard fight, they finally succeeded in defeating these spiders and protected themselves.
In the crisis, the four people showed courage and wisdom. They then found the second key in the wall box behind the big spider.
The four of them continued forward and came to a door sealed by magic. The door is engraved with runes, and the code of the runes needs to be solved to open the door.
However, it is not easy to unlock the rune code. They need to study the meaning of the rune and find the corresponding magic item in order to lift the seal.
Lan Caidi looked at the runes on the door and carefully studied the unfamiliar runes, finding that each rune represented an element: fire, water, earth, and wind.
They speculated that they needed to find the corresponding magic item to lift the seal.
After some thinking and exploration, they found four magic items in different rooms in the maze: the Necklace of Fire, the Drop Gem, the Ring of Earth, and the Boots of Wind Speed.
They placed the magic items in the positions corresponding to the runes.
Place the Fire Gem on the Fire Rune, the Water Drop Necklace on the Water Rune, the Earth Ring on the Earth Rune, and the Wind Speed Boots on the Wind Rune.
As they placed the magic items, the door began to emit a low buzzing sound.
The light from the runes gradually grew brighter, and finally the door slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to the next room.
They came to a huge tomb in which there were three stone statues guarding a key, with joyful smiles on their faces.
