Skretil's Ignorance Walker

"Welcome to my castle. I wonder if you have stayed here comfortably for the past two days? Some people may say it is rather gloomy, but I have lived here for almost a hundred years, so I am quite used to it."

The master of the castle began to talk to himself in his seat. Lu Ren didn't understand why he said this, but it seemed that he had no intention of driving strangers like himself and Amy out.

"You all came here after receiving my invitation letter. To be honest, the whereabouts of some of you are really difficult to find. I spent a lot of effort to send it out, and one of the letters was sent to the wrong person. .”

After saying that, he looked at Lu Ren and Amy, and the other three people present also looked at Lu Ren and Amy.

"But these are not problems. Since I have received it, it means that I have this fate, so I plan to choose one of you to inherit my treasure."

The so-called treasure should be the Sword of the Earth, one of the Four Spirits. Although he didn't know for various purposes that he wanted to choose one person among the people present to inherit it, but this was undoubtedly a good opportunity for Amy. , at this time, she was ready to face all the next tests.

But not everyone agrees with this decision.

"Hey, sir, are you not confused? You actually let two outsiders attend such an important event? Why can they come and compete with us for such an important treasure?"

Orvis, the man who had just argued with Amy, was now questioning the owner of the castle dissatisfiedly.

"You are...oh, by the way, Mostier's great-grandson, what's your name...Ovis, right? The things belong to me, and I can give them to whoever I want. Do you have any objections?"

Although Ovis had always looked arrogant before, when he actually faced the problem of the castle owner, he seemed a little timid. Under the gaze of the castle owner, he did not dare to say anything more, so he had to stand aside and wait for others to finish.

"A hundred years ago, we fought against the enemy that threatened the Kingdom of Bols. After the battle, I got this treasure - the Sword of the Earth. It was a time that I will never forget. You think so too. ? Isa."

Following his words, the castle owner's eyes turned to the female elf who had been silent at the side, and the latter also looked directly into his eyes and nodded.

"I'm old, and I'm afraid I will die soon, so I plan to see my old friends while I can still move, and entrust this treasure to others, instead of being buried in the loess with me. It may be more useful in your hands."

"That's right, old man, so you should give me that treasure. Only I can play its due role."

As soon as the castle owner finished speaking, Orvis jumped out impatiently and started chattering to himself again.

"...Shut up! Little brat, listen to what I have to say!"

Perhaps because he couldn't stand Orvis's trash talk, the master of the castle roared, and the latter trembled after hearing it and hid behind the girl who was traveling with him.

"I have set up a mechanism inside my castle, and the first one among you to pass the test will get this secret treasure."

As soon as he finished speaking, an exquisite and strange-looking sword appeared from the hands of the castle owner. Its whole body exuded brown magic light. Lu Ren could even feel its light in his own magic perception vision. Presumably that is the Sword of the Earth, a holy sword that represents the earth element, one of the four elements.

"Then, let's start now!"

And following the castle owner's order, the floor in the center of the hall collapsed. The unsuspecting people were suddenly caught by the gravity of the planet. With a scream, everyone fell into a deep pit. .

During the fall, Lu Ren relied on his magic ability to grab Amy's hand after reacting, causing the two of them to begin to fall slowly. The elf named Isa on the side also launched a magical protection, allowing herself to stabilize her figure.

As for the other two people, it was miserable. With their screams, everyone came to a large room. Lu Ren and Amy slowly landed on the ground, and Isa also landed safely on the ground. Only the other two were thrown to the ground heavily. However, it seemed that the ground was protected by magic, preventing the two of them from falling to their death.

"Ah...well...that damn old man, it hurts me to death..."

Ovis climbed up from the ground with difficulty and patted the dust on his body casually. It seemed that the protection of the room was indeed good, and there was not even a single injury on his body.

"Oooh, Orvis, can you help me?"

The girl who was with him before had not stood up yet. She stretched out her hand to ask Ovis to help her up.

"Tsk, that's really troublesome."

Although he said it was troublesome, Orvis still pulled him up, and by this time everyone had already observed the layout of the entire room.

The top that everyone just fell off has been sealed, and there is nothing in the room. There is only a door on each of the four walls. It seems that everyone needs to make a choice.

Lu Ren originally wanted to use his magic perception to cheat, but found that his perception was blocked by the walls of the room, and he could not see beyond the walls to see what was outside.

There is no other way now but to face the test honestly.

"There are four doors here. Should we go separately?"

Amy raised this question. In order to obtain the Earth Sword, she was willing to give it a try no matter what kind of test it was.

"Hmph, whoever wants to join you, let me take the lead first!"

""Ah, Orvis, wait for me! ""

Ovis ignored the other people and rushed towards the door closest to him. When the girl next to him saw what happened, she immediately followed him.

"..."

After a while, the two opened the door and ran out, leaving only Lu Ren and the other two people there.

"Here... let's choose a door too?"

To be honest, Lu Ren was still a little interested in this test. After all, even if he couldn't get the holy sword, he could still kill some time.

"My advice is to wait until they come back."

The taciturn elf Isa spoke now, but Lu Ren and the others were startled.

"Waiting for them to come back? They have already set off, how can they come back?"

Amy asked in confusion, and facing Amy's question, Isa sighed and said: "Don't look at the four doors here, as if we are required to act separately, but in fact, there are only There is only one door to get out of, and all the other doors are blinders.”

Perhaps to verify Isa's words, there was a scream from the direction the two people left just now, and then they saw the two people running back quickly, with a huge rolling stone following behind them.

"Ouch...help!"

"Hey, I knew that guy Drews still hasn't gotten rid of his bad habits."

Looking at the two people who had escaped, Isa couldn't help but sigh again.
