Chapter 334 Leaving True Identity
Wang Zhifan saw Dumbo roll up his Poseidon Meditation Ring with his long trunk, and then it kept making incomprehensible subtle sounds, as if it was chanting some difficult spells.
After this state lasted for five or six seconds, Dumbo returned the Poseidon Meditation Ring to him and told him that the transformation of the ring had been completed.
"Transformed so quickly? You are quite capable... How should I use it now?"
Although the other party's operation just now seemed very childish, Wang Zhifan's perception still captured the strong changes in the mysterious power on the ring, so he tended to think that Dumbo did do something to the ring.
"Adventurer, you only need to concentrate your mental power on this ring, and you can perceive a space for a while, and the rest is very simple. I don't need to say more."
Seeing Wang Zhifan looking at it, Dumbo immediately answered fluently without pause.
"Okay, I'll try."
Seeing the operation was so fool-proof, Wang Zhifan immediately put it into practice. He first concentrated his mental power on the modified Poseidon Meditation Ring. Sure enough, he soon discovered a strange space closely connected to the ring. Then he brought the black giant sword in his other hand close to the ring. As soon as his mental power was activated, the black giant sword was stored in it. But after a half-second pause, he took the giant sword out and continued to hold it in his hand.
"What's wrong, adventurer? Is the space of the ring I modified for you not big enough?"
Seeing him operate like this, Dumbo on the side immediately showed a puzzled look in his eyes.
"No, I just feel that the equipment might be more useful in my hand."
Wang Zhifan naturally wouldn't say that he didn't trust this guy and didn't want to use the ring in the tower, and then urged it:
"The transaction is completed, how should I get out?"
Dumbo didn't seem to care much about his reaction, and immediately raised his long nose to point to the other side of the lobby, and replied:
"I have opened the door for you, you can go through it and return to the bottom entrance of the tower."
Wang Zhifan was guided by it, and then he found that the entrance of the passage he had just entered into the lobby had turned into a door at some point, an unlocked brass door.
"Did you really open this door? Didn't the tower open automatically?"
He said with a suspicious expression, because he didn't see Dumbo open the door at all.
"If you want to do this, it's up to you, but please leave quickly! If you stay here for a long time, you may get into trouble if you happen to run into other adventurers coming in!"
Dumbo immediately urged him with a nonchalant look, and only his eyes revealed that he wanted him to leave.
Wang Zhifan ignored it and turned his attention to the clone he left in the lower level, that is, the clone that followed the mercenaries, thinking about whether to return to the lower level and take another route to fight again.
Through the clone, he saw that the number of mercenaries was less than ten, and those who were still alive were fighting three opponents in a duel field. One of the opponents used a bow and arrow, one used spells, and one could summon many insects. The mercenaries were tormented to death by them.
"This is a bit like the second level I played... It seems that there are many repeated parts in the routine of the high tower."
Seeing this scene, Wang Zhifan didn't want to play the tower again. He stepped decisively towards the brass door, opened the door and walked in under the gaze of Dumbo.
In an instant, he felt that he had returned to a passage. At the end of the passage not far away, there was a larger brass door, and it was still half-open.
"Sure enough, I've returned to the bottom of the tower. I'm actually going back the same way. No wonder those people are guarding the tower."
Wang Zhifan knew that there might be trouble again. He wore a gray cloak, carried a black giant sword and walked forward, passing through the bottom door of the tower.
And as he expected, when he went out, he saw a group of people besieging the entrance. They were the nobles who had let him into the tower before.
"Someone is leaving the tower!"
A man who was staring at the bronze door immediately reminded others loudly when he saw him walk out, asking everyone to get ready to surround him.
"It's you?! How could you come out so quickly?!"
The leading armored knight immediately appeared in front of him on a tall horse, with a rather surprised expression on his face.
"Get out of the way, or don't blame me for being rude."
Wang Zhifan had expected this situation, but his expression seemed a little impatient, and he issued a stern warning.
The knight who was leading the crowd to block the road in front of him did not give way to him as he did when he entered the tower. Instead, his expression of astonishment turned into a stern look, staring at the black giant sword in his hand and asking:
"Did you just get the weapon in your hand from the tower?"
Seeing that he knew about this weapon, Wang Zhifan immediately asked back:
"So what?"
Unexpectedly, the knight's face suddenly turned red, and he rode his horse quickly towards him, saying loudly:
"Give it to me! This is what the Duke needs!"
"Get out! This is my stuff! Ask your people to get out of my way!"
Wang Zhifan raised his sword and chopped it down. Although he deliberately didn't hit the knight leader in front of him, the giant sword smashed down to form a gust of wind, forcing the knights who rushed over to retreat.
However, what he didn't expect was that even though he had already warned him in this way, the knight leader in front of him was still fanatical and fearless. He turned around and said loudly to the men around him:
"Everyone! Look at the sword in his hand! That is the powerful weapon that the Duke has longed for! If we let him go, the Duke will never forgive us! We must keep him! The support from the castle will arrive soon! Everyone hold on!"
As soon as he started talking, Wang Zhifan saw the knights around him approaching quickly, and the archers retreated and prepared to shoot. The magician had already gathered mysterious power in his hands, and a war was inevitable.
"Boring... If you must die, I will fulfill your wish!"
When Wang Zhifan was so angry, he was furious. He didn't like to attack the weak, but if the other party insisted on hitting the gun, he would not be soft-hearted.
"Ice source power!"
In pursuit of maximum efficiency, he immediately used his trump card power to cover all the enemies around him, and he used the icy power to freeze the water in their bodies to form ice crystals, and then all the ice crystals spread wildly!
In theory, Wang Zhifan's method is not as unsolvable as it seems. As long as the person is strong enough, he can use his extraordinary power to suppress the icy power he exerts. He once encountered such an opponent in the sea dungeon, but it is obvious that the people who are blocking him now are not that strong.
They were all hit in an instant, and everyone was instantly scattered into countless ice crystals like an explosion, and even the equipment they were wearing was damaged and riddled with holes, that is, everyone was killed by him in an instant!
"It's a waste of my strength."
After clearing the opponents in an instant, Wang Zhifan did not feel relieved. He then stepped on the ice crystals and equipment fragments and walked forward, letting go of his perception to explore whether there were other hidden enemies around, ready to eliminate all the opponents.
But his strong perception did not find any damn scum nearby. Instead, he noticed that the black giant sword in his hand was undergoing a secret change. It seemed to be slowly absorbing some mysterious substance around it, and the overall aura of the giant sword became heavier and stronger.
"Is this sword... absorbing the vitality that just disappeared around it? Or is it absorbing the souls of the dead?"
Wang Zhifan was a little unsure at this moment. He only knew that the giant sword in his hand was getting stronger, relying on the many corpses that had just died around him.
"Come out and explain it to me! I know you are hiding in the ring!"
Feeling puzzled, he then shouted at his hand in a bad tone, facing the modified Poseidon Meditation Ring he was wearing.
But for a while, no one responded to his words, as if he was talking to the air.
"Don't come out, right... If you don't come out, I will let you taste the taste of death!"
Wang Zhifan got angry instantly. He concentrated his mental power to open the space connected to the ring, and then forcibly infused the icy power into it!
"Stop! Adventurer! I didn't hide in there on purpose!"
A white Dumbo figure instantly shot out of the ring, and it turned out to be the strange existence in the tower before.
"I'm asking you about this sword! Don't tell me you don't know anything!"
Wang Zhifan was not surprised at all that this guy really jumped out of the ring. He shouted at him with a stern expression, as if he would kill him if he disagreed with him.
The Dumbo who sneaked out of the tower seemed to be stunned by his terrifying momentum, and quickly replied:
"It may be the legendary Sin Sword! It can absorb the souls of the dead and become stronger! That's all I know! Please don't kill me! I have no ill will towards you!"
"Sin Sword... So that's it..."
Wang Zhifan raised the black giant sword in his hand and saw that the series of red gems on the hilt seemed to have a slight change in color, becoming more scarlet. This is probably an important reason for the change in the aura of this weapon.
"Do you know what the cape behind me is? Be honest, don't try to hide it!"
Now that the general function of the giant sword is known, Wang Zhifan continues to ask about another piece of equipment he has obtained, the gray cape that has been draped on his back.
But this time, Dumbo seems to be more hesitant. It glances at the creation behind Wang Zhifan, and then says carefully:
"Sorry, this cape has not shown any mysterious characteristics yet, I really can't judge, but it is certain that it is definitely not an ordinary item, and the quality is not much worse than the evil sword..."
Wang Zhifan didn't react for a while after hearing its words, but then he stepped suddenly, and the whole figure soared into the sky from the ground covered with corpses and debris, galloping away into the distance, and then summoned the red deer horse in the air and disappeared in this area.
After a while, he was riding on the horse to the next destination, and suddenly turned his head to look behind, where the figure of Dumbo was vaguely visible, and it actually followed all the way!
"Why are you still following me? Haven't you escaped from the tower now?"
Feeling that this little thing was acting strangely, Wang Zhifan asked the Red Deer Horse to turn around and meet it to clarify the conspiracy motives with it face to face.
Seeing that he still looked unfriendly, Dumbo pulled away a little and replied:
"I have an important mission to complete and I really need your help, so I followed you."
"Huh? Do you still want to plot against me?"
Wang Zhifan was unhappy when he heard it. He didn't kill this Dumbo with a knife just because he hadn't really been tricked by it and found its traces in advance.
"My mission is related to the devil."
Dumbo replied immediately, as if he was sure that Wang Zhifan would be interested in the devil's affairs.
"Haha... you really know about the devil's affairs... tell me where the devil is! Otherwise, I don't mind using violence!"
Wang Zhifan directly let the Red Deer Horse stay in the air, staring at the strange existence in front of him.
But this guy didn't seem to be afraid. He looked at him and said:
"I alone can't find the Demon King. We need more beings like me to find it. But I suggest you wait a while. The Demon King should break the seal and appear soon."
After hearing Dumbo say this, Wang Zhifan didn't understand what it meant. He immediately replied with some surprise:
"Could it be that... you are one of the runes required to unlock the Demon King's seal? Impossible... you are obviously a living thing!"
He had imagined many of Dumbo's true identities, but now he couldn't accept the answer thrown in his face.
"Why can't living things be runes? Besides, I'm not a real creature. Everything is just a disguise."
Dumbo said, changing his form. In an instant, he turned into a white cloud, followed by a ball of light, a bird, and a leaf. Each image was impeccable. Even in Wang Zhifan's powerful perception, there were no obvious flaws.
"This..."
Wang Zhifan had to believe it at this point. He recalled the ability of the ring that this guy had transformed for him before, and combined with the various performances now, he could conclude that the magical power it possessed was already close to the essence of mystery, rather than a simple creature.
"What is your mission? Defeat the demon king who is about to appear in the world?"
He made a little guess and asked the existence in front of him that seemed to be a rune spirit.
"My power cannot defeat it. I can only work with other similar beings to restore the seal after it is defeated and seal it up again."
The strange existence that has recovered its appearance of Dumbo immediately answered, and then added:
"The demon king is very powerful. You are the person who has the most hope of defeating it that I have ever seen, so please cooperate with me! Letting the demon king exist in this world will be a complete disaster. No matter what the purpose is, you should help us defeat it, otherwise the whole world will usher in the end of the world!"
