On the Seven Towers

Chapter 429 A Selection

Three days later, in the Hall of Fantasy in the Elf King's Capital, Elena accompanied Xiao Chen and Roger who hurried over, waiting for the start of the warrior selection.

The Hall of Illusions is a circular building that looks a bit like an arena, specially used to inspect elves who go out to experience. All candidates are waiting in the cloister near the inner entrance for the selection to begin.

As a race with a long life, the elves naturally have considerable connections. In a few days, they gathered dozens of masters of various races.

There are half-elves who carry bows and arrows and long swords, and look very similar to elves.

There are dwarfs with impatient faces holding warhammers and axes,

There is a leonine orc with a golden mane, a black nose and brown eyes.

There are goblins with bone necklaces and oil paint on their faces,

There are even Nagahai tribesmen with six arms and snake-like lower bodies.

But there are only two humans, Xiao Chen and Luo Jie.

There were several races that Xiao Chen saw for the first time, so he couldn't help but look at them twice to attract their attention. However, the looks the other party cast were not very friendly.

Xiao Chen looked at the goblin who was only half his height and said, "I didn't expect that elves would rather let goblins help than invite humans. Do elves already hate humans to this extent?"

"It's not that I hate it. From an aesthetic point of view, elves definitely prefer humans who are similar to themselves, but judging from past history, humans have always been the most powerful and terrifying race in the world. So elves have very strong feelings towards humans. It’s complicated, there’s caution, there’s also fear.

After all, most of the wars between elves in the past were fought against humans. Just around you, there are many older elves who have participated in two wars with the Black Dragon Empire. "Elena explained to Xiao Chen while observing the candidates of each race, "On the other hand, other races are like the elves and are in a position of being suppressed by humans. Naturally, I want to be with the elves. If it weren't for my guarantee, and you happen to be in the Elven Capital. The elders will not invite you to join this expedition. "

"Don't worry, Roger and I will not let you down." Xiao Chen said.

Perhaps it was the quiet and grand hall that put invisible pressure on these players. No matter they were the reckless orcs or the violent dwarves, they made no sound and had little communication with each other. Instead, they were meditating or doing preparatory exercises.

About an hour later, the selection officially began. Under the arrangements of the manager of the Hall of Illusions, the candidates entered the inner hall one by one to accept the test. There are five entrance channels, that is to say, five people will be tested at the same time each time, and each batch of people will spend about tens of minutes to an hour.

Xiao Chen found that most people were in high spirits and high spirits before entering the venue, but when they came out, most of them looked very tired or even depressed.

When an orc came out, he threw his sword to the ground and shouted angrily: "Asshole, why are there master-level enemies!"

The orcs were immediately taken away by the elves, but those who had not yet participated in the test became nervous. For high-level players in any profession, master-level opponents are a difficult obstacle to overcome.

"Roger, do you think you can surpass the challenge?"

Roger shook his head decisively and said: "If I were a normal master-level warrior, it would be basically impossible for me to succeed in the cross-level challenge. I am still far away from the high-level peak."

"I think we can give it a try. The enemies in the illusion are never real people, and there will definitely be problems in adapting. We must observe carefully, and maybe we will have a chance." Xiao Chen said.

When it was Xiao Chen and Luo Jie's turn, it was already the fourth batch.

The elf responsible for guiding took Xiao Chen to an entrance and asked Xiao Chen to walk in along a passage. Xiao Chen walked about forty or fifty meters, and a bright end appeared in front of the originally dark passage.

Walking out of the door, there is a high mountain illuminated by the setting sun. Amidst the rose-colored sky and mist, there is a straight mountain road leading to the top of the mountain. A voice rang in Xiao Chen's ears: "Challenger, please run from this mountain road to the top and defeat all the enemies you can before your health is exhausted."

Then the words HP: 100 appeared in the void in front of Xiao Chen's right.

With the heart of a traveler, Xiao Chen, assisted by the ring's clear state of mind and energy perception function, could vaguely feel that the scenes he saw were false. He seemed to have entered a small room, floating in the air. It wasn't that he was moving forward, but that the surrounding scenery was moving backwards. It's like being in a particularly realistic virtual reality game.

With the help of the ring, he sensed the energy core of this room. This core did not appear in the illusion, but was hidden behind the sky somewhere. Xiao Chen was even somewhat confident that if he attacked this core, he would be able to directly destroy the illusion and interrupt the test. However, since Xiao Chen wanted to pass the selection, he naturally wanted to accompany them to play.

This is also a rare experience. Xiao Chen feels the real feeling of being down to earth, watching the very realistic clouds and mists rolling, and has some new insights into his own meditation world.

He walked for a while on the mountain road, and a warrior in armor jumped out from the roadside, raised his long sword and charged at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen didn't want to expose the inheritance of the Tower of Dreams, so he used the fire magic he learned from Tasia. First, a fireball knocked the warrior to the ground, and then a pillar of fire suddenly rose from under the warrior, and the scorching flames quickly burned him to charcoal.

Continue to go up, the enemies that appeared began to grow wings and became the elves' nemesis: war angels. These war angels are much more difficult to deal with than ordinary warriors. They are flexible, dodge quickly, and shoot arrows from the sky.

Xiao Chen was caught off guard and was shot in the shoulder. His health dropped by 5 points. He switched to ice magic, used ice shield to protect his body, used ice cone magic to freeze the war angels, and finally used ice spear to kill them.

The war angels along the way became stronger and stronger. At first, they were mid-level war angels, and later there were even two high-level war angels fighting together. However, the high-level in the illusion are set according to the routine, and the attack routine will not change, but the strength and speed will increase greatly. In front of a magician like Xiao Chen who has a very keen perception and abnormally strong mental power, this kind of enemy just wastes him some more time.

Xiao Chen took steady steps, observing and memorizing the battle patterns of these war angels all the way. Later, he figured out the rules and faced more powerful enemies, which was easier than at the beginning. He eliminated all opponents and walked to the top of the mountain. A war angel holding two swords appeared on the opposite side. Xiao Chen was very familiar with the swords. They were the two swords of Judgment and Protection in Mei's hands.
