Mystery: Start with the Reader

The first three floors of this dream maze test almost all the reasoning and analysis abilities of the passers-by, and the abilities displayed in the generated scenes are diverse, making people have to guess that this tower is likely to be related to the omniscient and omnipotent five ways. related.

Regardless of which of the five paths of omniscience and omnipotence this possible "blasphemy card" is, it is what Abner needs.

"And the 'White Tower Card' is most likely to be hidden here! After all, this dream labyrinth originally existed in the form of a tower, and coupled with the deliberate testing of reasoning, this shouldn't be just a coincidence..."

After taking a few breaths, Abner suppressed the eager desire in his heart. He understood that with his current self, he would never be able to reach the first floor no matter what. Even if you get up by luck, you can't hold back what you get. Because the top is probably the "multiplayer online battle" mode specially created by the emperor!

In the next few days, Abner worked voluntarily, substituting for the school, helping the residents of the island find their lost property, and at the same time studying the "Aernos' Mystery Records" obtained from the tower at night, living a very fulfilling life .

Xio also left early and came back late, looking around for clues about the main ingredient of the 'Magistrate' potion. She seemed to have received news of the 'Dread Demon Insect' a day ago, and she is currently confirming it.

And Mr. Gaston spends 12 hours a day in the dream maze. The appearance of forgetting to eat and sleep reminds Abner of those Internet-addicted teenagers who died suddenly in Internet cafes in his previous life.

Busy time always flies by, and it's Thursday night in a blink of an eye.

Due to the extraordinary gathering being held, it was rare for Mr. Gaston not to enter the Dreamland Labyrinth Tower. Instead, he came to the 'Sword and Fire' bar early to prepare the venue.

Abner and Hugh did not go with him, but disguised themselves, and entered the secret room in the bar using the code that Mr. Gaston had given in advance.

Because this was an island town, the formal attire was too eye-catching, so Abner deliberately changed into a fairly clean sailor outfit, painted the sailor's favorite oil paint on his face, and his hair was messed up even more. He looked in the mirror and found that he almost couldn't recognize himself, so he nodded in satisfaction.

But when Abner saw Xio in the back street of the bar, the corners of his mouth twitched in embarrassment, because the other party was dressed in the same dress as him! The same half-worn sailor suit, the same oil paint, even the hair is messier than before. The only difference is that Xio is a head shorter than him, which is the result of her padding.

"It's unremarkable if a person is dressed like this, but if the two of us go there together, I always feel more special... Besides, I don't know if it's an illusion, Hugh's dress is pretty decent, and the same dress Is my comparison a bit more ridiculous?" Thinking of this, Abner sighed inwardly.

"What are you looking at?" Xio felt that Abner's eyes were a little strange, and looked down at his attire, but found nothing wrong.

"Um, I don't think it's necessary for us to go in separately... Others must think we're in the same group." It was too late to change the disguise at this moment, and Abner had no choice but to break the can. As the saying goes, Zhuangshan is not terrible...

Xio didn't think it was a problem, anyway, no one recognized the two of them, as long as their faces were not remembered by the officials or undercover pirates, everything else didn't matter.

At 7:55, carrying all his savings and a few newly made charms, Abner felt quite complicated and stepped into the secret room where Mr. Gaston held the party.

He ended up wearing a black robe over the sailor suit after all, with the shadow of the hood covering his oil-painted face.

"845 pounds in cash, and 5 low-level charms, this is all my net worth, I don't know how much I will have left after this party..." Abner sat down in a seat full of thoughts, and then borrowed a secret The light from the candles in the room swept around.

Almost all men... not many women, not counting Hugh, only two. So who among them will be that 'Miss Gwynn'?

After a few minutes,

Mr. Gaston, who was wearing a special mask, clapped his hands and said:

"let's start."

As soon as his voice fell, someone couldn't wait to speak. It was a "lady" who was over 1.8 meters tall and covered her body tightly, but could vaguely see the curve of her chest. one of the ladies.

She pressed her voice and said:

"Did the friend who wanted to buy the venom crystal of the crown jellyfish come last time?"

"Here we come." A man sitting in the corner replied succinctly.

The tall lady breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and took out a box, and said in an urgent tone: "I need a weapon that can restrain giant python-like creatures, it can do anything, it has serious negative effects, and even the validity period is only one or two months. Doesn't matter! If there is one, it's yours!"

"I don't have such a weapon, can I pay? I'm willing to pay 150 pounds!" The man in the corner asked after thinking about it. .

The lady frowned, and when she was about to answer, she heard Mr. Gaston on the main seat smile and say: "I have such a weapon, and I can sell it to that gentleman for 150 pounds, and then let him exchange it with you. "

The tall lady was overjoyed, but still asked cautiously, "What kind of weapon?"

Mr. Gaston organized the language and replied:

"Supernatural creatures like snakes and pythons that live in dark caves are generally afraid of light!"

"This is an arrow made from the feather of a sacred sunbird. I remember that you are good at using bows and arrows, ma'am, so you should be able to control it."

"When it hits the target, it will ignite a pure holy fire of light in the internal organs of the opponent. It is very powerful, but it is a pity that it can only be fired again, otherwise it will not be so cheap."

"Currently it works for three months."

"If you want, you can exchange now."

The tall lady and the man sitting in the corner looked at each other, and understood that the arrow was actually not worth so much money, and there was a lot of premium. After all, it was described as a disposable item. But who makes them in demand?

The lady looked around, expecting others to participate in the bidding, but unfortunately no one objected, so she gritted her teeth and nodded, "I'll change!"

After witnessing this transaction, Abner almost confirmed that this tall lady was the 'Gwen' he was looking for. First, the crown jellyfish also appeared in "Gwen's Cave Adventure", and it is one of the monsters that the protagonist Gwen led the team to kill together. Second, according to the records in this adventure book, her team was wiped out by the longan python, and she was the only one who fled back alone, seeking revenge. This is also in line with the behavior of the lady who asked to buy the weapon to restrain the python...

But how do you talk to this lady?

Just as Abner lowered his head to think, the transaction at the party continued. Someone bought a pair of magical items called "Ocean Boots" for 600 pounds, which allowed the wearer to move freely underwater for more than For half an hour, some water-related spells were cast to a limited extent. And a extraordinary material called "Fruit of the Elder Tree" sold for a high price of 750 pounds, which is astonishing.

According to the knowledge of mysticism and the content of the original book, Abner knew that this extraordinary material should be one of the main materials of Sequence 7 'Psychic Doctor'.

Could it be that the person who bought it was a member of the "Psychological Alchemist Association", Abner silently glanced at the lady who took the "fruit of the Elder Tree". Yes, she was the last lady of the party besides Hugh and the tall lady.

"He is of medium height, a little taller than the raised Xio. You can't see the face, but the hair exposed is red... This is very distinctive! Of course, it may also be deliberately dyed to conceal people's eyes and ears." Ai After reasoning and analyzing, Buner turned his attention back to the party again. He is just habitually wary of the 'audience' and has no intention of contacting the other party.

Some of the subsequent transactions were successful and some were unsuccessful. The former was less and the latter was more. After all, most of the Beyonders who came to the party had a clear purpose and would not waste money and resources at will.

It wasn't until the end that Abner saw that no one proposed a new deal, so he opened his mouth and said:

"I need the exact clues of the dragon eye python, 200 pounds!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the tall lady's eyes on him.
