The King of Weapons from Pirates

Chapter 46 Sphinx
Act-46
Starting with her appearance, the topic was naturally led by Jiang Tian to her poor experience.

Since he was going to pretend to be someone sent by "Ishtar", he must have come to enlighten her from the shadows in her heart, Jiang Tian understood it that way.

Therefore, Jiang Tian and Hephaestus talked one after another, which was to test each other, and also meant to strengthen mutual understanding between the two parties.

After all, Jiang Tian is a little interested in her experience.And Hephaestus also cherished this rare person who could speak.

In the simple confrontation between you and me, Jiang Tian learned part of the news about Hephaestus. Her story was actually told by the captain before.

It is the tragic story of the elder brother who was burned at the stake in order to enter the underwater temple to seek medicine.But the captain didn't finish the story. When he saw the angel come out, he knelt down on the spot.

Jiang Tian heard the continuation of the story from Hephaestus, the client.

The follow-up is like this. When Hephaestus was burned at the stake by the bull-headed monster, a huge and holy angel suddenly appeared in the sky. The angel floated above Hephaestus' head and read the divine words in person.

"God says, forgive the sins of the innocent."

So Hephaestus was rescued, but her whole body was burned, especially the left cheek was the most serious.

She was rescued by God himself, and was quickly favored by the bishops. They jointly advised the pope to make her a saint in order to increase the influence of their Noven Island in the North Sea, but the pope has always insisted on coercion. opposing view.

But one day, he suddenly agreed.Even his attitude towards Hephaestus has changed drastically. He hated him before and wished he could tear him apart, but now he loves and holds him in his hands and is afraid of losing him.

Afterwards, Hephaistos stayed in the Palace of Saint Versailles, and occasionally came out as a saint to refresh her face, harvest a wave of faith, and show her sense of presence.

After listening to the story of Hephaestus, Jiang Tian quickly discovered the biggest doubt in the story.

The pope who suddenly changed his attitude!
Generally, only when a person is greatly stimulated and threatened can he change his personality and the way he treats people and things in an instant.

But the pope in the story, the attitude before and after is simply two extremes!

Was it a great stimulus or threat?Or just replace someone?

Jiang Tian is more inclined to the latter.

However, the issue of the Pope's true identity has obviously entered another minefield in Hephaestus's heart, so no matter how Jiang Tian makes indirect remarks, she will never get a positive response from her.

As for the test proposed by the Pope, Hephaestus didn't even know a thing or two.

After playing a few simple games with Hephaestus, Jiang Tian, ​​with more doubts, went to the servant room next door and lay down, waiting for the test that the Pope said would come.

However, until midnight, the stars were shining in the sky, and Jiang Tian didn't feel anything strange happened.

The so-called "the test will officially start after everyone answers the room" or something, why doesn't it apply to him?
Is it because he entered the wrong room, so there is no need for a test?
Hmm, why is there a pitiful feeling of being excluded for no reason?

Thinking of this, Jiang Tian slowly fell asleep.

……

"Jiang Tian, ​​you are finally here."

Jiang Tian, ​​who was still a little dizzy, opened his eyes and saw Luo Na's iconic bear ear hat.

But before he could ask, what is the situation now, he was pulled by Luo Qiang and walked into an archway with a bull's head hanging on the frame.

After entering the door, Jiang Tian opened his mouth again to ask questions, but found that Luo beside him and the door behind him had disappeared together at some point.

Looking at the 30-meter-high ancient walls all around, Jiang Tian was full of doubts.

Jiang Tian still clearly remembered that after playing with Hephaestus, he fell asleep in a servant's room.But when I woke up, why did I come to this strange place with high walls on three sides and only one side with a road.

How is this going?

It took about five seconds for Jiang Tian to have a bold guess in his mind.

Could this be the test related to salvation that the pope said!

But he was brought here in an instant, and Luo was taken away in an instant. Did the pope eat the fruit of the door?Or some other fruit that can carry out space transfer?

Or is the environment he is in now... a fake?

Right now, everything is blank.

Jiang Tian glanced at the only corridor through, took a deep breath, and walked in.

Waiting is not his style, he has to find out the answer himself.

After walking for about 10 minutes, turning several forks in a row, and walking through several dead ends, Jiang Tian understood what the structure was here.

This is a super-large real-life maze!
It's just that, in this maze, Jiang Tian hasn't encountered monsters and organs yet, and he doesn't know if they will appear later.

In this way, after walking for nearly an hour, Jiang Tian came to a dead end again.

It's just that, unlike other dead ends, there is actually a ten-meter-high gate here, and there is a lion man in golden full-body armor in front of the gate.

Jiang Tian has played many games, and he also understands this kind of setting similar to the magic tower.

As long as you defeat the monsters and find the key, you can enter the door, which is the treasure or the steps leading to the second floor.

He was ready to fight, intending to snipe and kill the knight who looked like a lion at a long distance.

But just when his hands were completely deformed, the Lion Knight in front of the door said: "Brother over there, I am a peace-loving Sphinx. I don't fight. As long as you answer my three questions correctly, I will fight." I'll let you in. How about it? It's a good deal, right?"

Three questions?What the hell?

Jiang Tian remembers Egyptian mythology or some kind of mythology. It recorded a sphinx named Sphinx. When he met adventurers, he also asked them a question. was eaten by him.

It is difficult to answer one question, let alone answer three questions correctly.

Jiang Tian didn't plan to answer the question, he was still going to implement his first plan.

Shoot this Lion Rider.

"You want to kill me and then go in, right?" Lion Knight seemed to hear Jiang Tian's inner thoughts, he said with a sneer, "It's useless, in the rules of this dream, only by answering my question correctly can I get rid of it." It’s a pass. And all other methods will not work for me.”

Jiang Tian didn't believe in evil, and fired several shots at the lion knight one after another.

But the lion knight didn't dodge or dodge, letting the bullets hit him.But something happened that stunned Jiang Tian. The few bullets he just fired stopped an inch before they were about to collide with the Lion Knight.

No matter how fast its initial speed is, no matter how strong its penetrating power is, it seems that an inch in front of the lion knight is an absolute domain that cannot be seen or touched, and it will always resist Jiang Tian's attack.

It seemed that he had expected Jiang Tian to attack for a long time, and the coldness on Lion Knight's face deepened, and he continued: "Start asking questions now, if you can't answer the correct answer within 30 seconds, then I will eat you bite by bite! "
