Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 768: I want them all

[The Palace of Power] is an underground maze with the theme of power.

But judging from the settings of the last level, this is not a pure competition of strength.

——The pursuit of strength must be done step by step. If you want to become fat in one go, you will only be asking for trouble.

Perhaps, this is what the brave Lox wants to express.

Does this setting imply that the maze guardian has been lost on the road to pursuing power?

Or, the brave man Laux who built this labyrinth was once lost in the pursuit of power...

Although he knew the life of Laux in general, Yang Yu still had no idea what this ancient warrior wanted to do and what the real purpose of establishing these underground labyrinths was.

Some valuable information cannot be written in books.

It is rare to meet a person who seems to know a lot of inside information, but in the end, he chose to keep silent about Laux and only planned to continue to fulfill his duty of guarding the maze.

Flipping the panel, no new tasks pop up on the task panel, nor can I speculate using the system.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Yu looked into Crouch's eyes and stood up,

“Since the beginning, you have been emphasizing that if you want to gain power, you must do whatever you want.

But, is this labyrinth really built for people who crave power in their hearts?

As long as you know how to conquer the ninth level and have enough time, any adventurer can easily pass it.

The first and second time won’t work, but the third and fourth time will more or less realize the true method of the strategy, right? ”

If he hadn’t met Xin Mang and heard about the [Wild Fighter], Yang Yu would probably have made the same mistake again and waited for a month and a half.

After standing up from the ground, Crouch smiled and said: "If we talk about the ninth level alone, it is indeed like that.

But the previous eight levels have already screened out strong people.

If you want to pursue power, you must have a certain amount of power yourself.

If you want to chase the sun, you must first know how to run. ”

"Your metaphor saved me a lot of effort.

Then let me ask you, can someone who can finish the first eight floors finish the ninth floor?

A person who can only run fifty kilometers will die of exhaustion halfway if you ask him to run a hundred kilometers.

Of course I care about the rewards at the end, but I am more concerned about my own safety.

Tell me if I could be tricked into running a hundred kilometers. ”

Yang Yu raised his hand and pointed at the four statues not far in front of him,

"Speak more straightforwardly.

Tell me, if I choose to pursue power...

Is there a way to ensure the safety of yourself and your companions and defeat the four statues? ”

"You can really ask these questions without any scruples."

Cloach burst into laughter,

“I haven’t met someone as straightforward as you in a long time.

I think most people start making choices immediately after I get aggressive.

During my lifetime, when many people faced choices, they felt that there were only those options in front of them...

It feels a little nostalgic...it also reminds me of some unpleasant things. ”

"Something unpleasant."

"Ah, it's okay.

I just lament about life. Occasionally, there will be times when I have to make a choice...

You ask this, are you afraid that I won’t answer you and ask you to start choosing directly? ”

“Just start choosing, just start choosing.

You are the guardian of the maze, the maze itself.

Even if I choose one and you ask me to deal with the other, there is nothing I can do.

Whether you are going to answer my question or not, I have to ask you again before I know.

How can I know what you think without asking. ”

Before a level, you can often get some important information by talking to important NPCs several times. This is not uncommon in games.

Cloach's temper is not bad.

Yang Yu thought he could give it a try, so he asked.

Unexpectedly, Crouch himself did not show any disgust. On the contrary, he laughed heartily.

"Hahaha, indeed.

Whether I will answer your question or not will only be known after you ask me.

As the guardian of the maze, I do have a lot of rights.

But, if possible, I still want to follow the rules set by Laux.

Hmm.

There is no rule among his rules that cannot be said.

With so many stories you just told me, I can’t answer the few questions you want to know.

Let me give you some information.

There is indeed some mysterious power in those four statues. If you can conquer them, you can indeed get part of the power of this maze.

This is not some nasty underground maze. As long as you work hard, you will gain something.

The next thing is your doubts just now.

...As long as you can defeat the maze guards on the eighth floor, it is not difficult to defeat the ninth floor. ”

Kloach didn't hide anything. Generally, the difficulty of each level of an underground maze increases linearly.

It is not uncommon in this world for mazes to be easy at the front and suddenly become extremely difficult at the back.

But that thing is more like a trap than an underground maze, a trap designed to trick people into killing them.

A maze like that is very dangerous. Once discovered, it will become a target for adventurers.

Even the giant dragons will pay attention to it. The dragons will even issue orders and assign special people to deal with it and uproot it.

Sadly, after the maze is exposed, it will attract many adventurers with certain abilities to attack it.

The reason why they went to conquer it was also very simple. There were rumors that very precious treasures would be revealed in that kind of maze.

However, in fact, after defeating the monster inside, there is a high probability that nothing will be revealed, and there may even be a letter mocking the adventurer's efforts.

[The Palace of Power] complies with the basic method of making underground labyrinths, and there is nothing that Yang Yu is worried about.

At least when this underground maze was built, Crouch had already carefully confirmed it.

"Then I will believe you once.

Now that I know everything I want to know, it's time for me to make my own choice. ”

At the same time, Yang Yu stretched out his left and right hands. His left hand pointed at the four sculptures of gods and demons, and his right hand pointed at Crouch.

"Both of you are my opponents. I want power and I want to clear this underground maze."

Kloach smiled helplessly,

"You are really a greedy guy.

However, I am not surprised at all that you would make such a choice.

Now that you have made your choice, start fighting now. ”

After tearing off his necklace, Crouch threw the key to Yang Yu:

"This key will be temporarily entrusted to you for safekeeping.

Anyway, if you don't think of a way to knock me down, there's no way you can escape from this level.

If you fail, I'll take it back.

I will show no mercy. ”
