Goddess Wanhua Mirror

In front of the Saintess and her party, Lude shared the story he had made up in advance.He has fought wits and bravery with Heid Taka for many years. Unlike other demons, he does not desire human flesh or soul, and has no interest in ruling or destroying the world. This incarnation of malice simply treats mortals as For playthings, I like to see the appearance of human beings suffering, and enjoy the process of playing, and get pleasure from it.

"Heid Taka likes to play games and make deals. He will formulate the rules of the game. As long as you can win in his game, this demon will give you great rewards, so many people are bewitched by him. "

"Master, have you fought this demon many times?"

"Yes, so many that I can hardly remember."

"But I have checked various classics of the Holy Cult of Light before, and I can't find any information about the demon Heid Taka at all."

"This is normal. This demon is very cunning. He has a lot of aliases, and sometimes pretends to be other demons, even gods! I can barely infer that he did it based on the style of the case. As for the appearance in the Void Forest this time I suspect that this is his provocation, that guy knew I was here, so he made this thing out on purpose, hoping that I would take the initiative to jump into the trap he set."

After a clever trick, the saintess and her party believed Lude's words, and at the same time expressed their sincere respect to this saint who spent half his life fighting against the devil, and then solemnly promised that they would definitely break through this evil. The devil's labyrinth, which is full of people, also brings peace to the locals.

Lu De said suddenly after pondering for a moment.

"It's better than this! Since Your Excellency the Holy Maiden wants to conquer the maze, let the old man help you all!"

"Master, are you coming too?"

"Yes, and besides me, I can also find some reliable helpers. The maze has a limit mechanism for the number of people, and we are likely to enter in batches, so more than one guide is needed."

After a long conversation, Lude recommended himself and temporarily joined the trial team of the saint.In this regard, Celica said that this matter needs to go back and discuss with her companions before making a decision.After all, Lude is a priest of a pagan religion, and they represent the Holy Cult of Light. To let Lude join, a big person "above" must nod and agree. Celica cannot make decisions without authorization.

So Celica left with her companions, and Lude sent them all the way to the gate of the temple.It wasn't until the group of people went down the hill and disappeared at the corner of the street that Hume emerged from the shadow behind Lude.

"Help that Holy Maiden of the Holy Cult of Light conquer your own labyrinth. What do you want to do?"

"What else can I do? Of course, it is to ensure that they can come out of the maze alive. Think about it! This is the saint of the Holy Cult of Light. If she has something good or bad with me, then put her on the top Bit lead, isn't this all over?"

"Then you don't have to fight yourself, do you?"

"The Holy Maiden of the Holy Cult of Light came here from thousands of miles away to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. I, a local priest, just stood aside and watched. Do you think this is appropriate? Besides, I went into the maze with me, just to ensure that they can live well again Come out, and didn't say that I would help them clear the customs. Don't worry! I already have a plan in my heart."

End of this chapter

The next morning, Celica came to the door again, saying that he had communicated with other companions and high-level sects, and accepted Lude's joint proposal, and the two sides formed a group to jointly attack the maze.

The official action is expected to take place a week later, and this period of time is mainly for preparations and waiting for the guide who is familiar with the situation in the maze to be in place.

It's not long since winter has just ended, and many adventurers from other places are still returning to Pine Tree Town one after another.Rudd had already sent letters to a few of his picks, and believed they were on their way at an accelerated pace.

However, these so-called excellent guides who are familiar with the maze are not ordinary people, but adventurers pretended by the heroic spirit team.At that time, when everyone enters the maze together, they will assist Lude's actions from the side.

During this time, Lude mainly did two things.

One thing is obvious, and that is to arrange the filming work in advance for the film script.It is estimated that their trip into the maze will take several days. During this period, the crew members will shoot some relatively simple plots first, and then shoot the big scenes when Lu De comes back from work.

The other thing was done secretly, that is, to make temporary adjustments to some organs and structures in the labyrinth in preparation for welcoming the saint.

At present, more than two-thirds of the maze has been completed. The fifth floor with the largest area has just been completed, and the sixth and seventh floors have been started simultaneously. However, it is definitely impossible to finish it before the arrival of the saint.

Therefore, in order not to reveal the truth that the maze has not been completed, Lu De must let the saintess and her party lose their ability to move forward before they break through the fifth floor, and at the same time try to avoid causing deaths, so as to ensure that these young people can return to the ground alive.

In other words, it is necessary to deceive people, but not to deceive people to death!

In order to grasp this strength, Lu De needs to find out the details of these young people in advance.

So he found the saint Celica, and told her straight to the point that this trip to the maze is very dangerous. Even a top expert like Hamilton should be very careful when breaking into the second floor, while ordinary adventurers simply only Dare to move on the first floor of the maze.

Therefore, out of a necessary caution, Lu De hoped to have a discussion with the Saintess and her party first, so as to understand each other's strengths.Celica thought for a while, and there was indeed some truth in what she said, so she nodded in agreement.

In this way, everyone made an appointment and came to the school ground where the guards were stationed in the town.Lu De stood in the open space with his hands behind his back with a leisurely expression on his face. He didn't see any movement from him, and immediately put a layer of holy light barrier on himself.

This instant magic technique shocked everyone. Although the young masters think highly of themselves, they are indeed the best among their peers, but as long as they are not blind idiots, they all know what the instant magic technique means.

Xin said that they are indeed God's chosen saints, even if they are not a big sect like the Guangming Sacred Church, their strength should not be underestimated.

"Master, how are you going to compete?"

"Let everyone try their best to hit me, let's go together."

"..." xN

The understatement of Lu De's words can be described as extremely arrogant, which instantly stimulated the self-esteem of all the young masters present, and ignited the anger in their hearts all at once.

You must know that a young talent who can become a follower of the saint is not just as simple as having a noble background and a suit of good equipment. He also has to go through layers of selection from the vast number of candidates to stand out. He is not the best among them. , will not enter this team.

Different from the ignorant dudes, young people like Li Wei belong to the elites who were born in a wealthy family and received elite education from an early age. Their own talents are very good, and they can be taught by famous teachers since childhood, so their strength is far superior to that of their peers , reached the level of a first-class master at a young age.

Coupled with the blessing of combat power brought by a suit of luxurious equipment, even against top experts, it is not without strength.

However, everyone quickly discovered in despair that the martial arts and equipment they were proud of could not hurt Lu De at all.

As far as general divine arts are concerned, although the barrier of holy light is strong, it is not impossible to break through, but divine arts have a duration, not permanent.

But the barrier of holy light that Lude set up for himself was not only exaggeratedly hard, but also lasted for an unreasonably long time. Everyone first went up one by one, and then went up together. Standing there motionless, even seeing someone tired of chopping, he would considerately throw a recovery spell over.

There is no harm at all, but the insult is outrageous!

In the end, everyone who was tossing and tossing was all gone, and Lu De took the initiative to remove the barrier on his body, and then said in a tone that was too flat to beat.

"Well, well played."

Although it seems extremely arrogant, Lu De's words are not ridicule, but really recognize the abilities of these young men, especially Li Wei. This kid has obviously learned ancient martial arts, and with his explosive buff effect National treasure-level plate armor, the strength is even higher than others, and it is the strongest among all the followers, it should be second only to Celica who did not make a move.

If these people were allowed to enter the maze on their own, at least Brother Gou, who broke through the first level by force alone, would have no problem at all.

At this time, Celica came to Lude, stared at him and said.

"Master, you should be more than just a god's choice?"

"Yes, I am blessed by seven gods."

In front of Celica, Lu De openly admitted the fact that he was the "chosen of the seven gods".

With Lude's personal acknowledgment, Celica couldn't help showing a hint of surprise, but just as she reached out to touch Lude, Shanis who was following along to join in the fun suddenly stepped forward and stopped Celica. Ka's move to move closer to Lude.

"My lord, what do you want to do?"

"No, please don't misunderstand this nun, I don't mean to be disrespectful to Master Lude..."

No matter how Celica explained, Shanis always stood between her and Lude like an old hen guarding the calf, her face full of guard, until Celica took a few steps back to a relatively "safe" distance, Shanisi stepped aside.

Her abnormal behavior made Lu De quite puzzled.

Fortunately, the investigation went smoothly. Lude roughly grasped the strength of the followers around Celica, while the other former saintess follow-ups were equivalent to priests and could use divine magic, but they were not chosen by God like saintesses.

Among this group of people, the saint Celica is undoubtedly the strongest. She is the divine choice of the Holy Lord of Light. In theory, during her tenure as a saint, she can use divine magic indefinitely like Lude, but Unlike Lude, who has the autonomy to adjust the spell by himself.

And it was precisely her that Lu De really had to deal with carefully.

End of this chapter

The ability of God's Choice is very incomprehensible, because there is no limit on the number of times the magic can be used, so the high-level recovery and resurrection can be used casually, and the trial team has Celica in charge, which is just like cheating.

As one of the Three Imperial Clans, the Holy Lord of Light has accumulated divine power accumulated over thousands of years by the upper gods. The total amount is a terrifying existence that new gods like Aina and Shanisi can't imagine at this stage.

And according to Lu De, the saints of all ages also have a very IMBA exclusive skill, which is to summon a clone of the Holy Lord of Light to come to the world.

This avatar has about [-]% of the strength of the main body, but even if it is only [-]%, it can still beat the lower gods. Even Hume, who has recovered to a full body, has to make a detour when he encounters one.

This "nirvana" called parents can be said to be very shameless!

Fortunately, this skill can not be used casually like ordinary magic arts. It is a life-saving skill that can only be used once a day, and it should be reserved for critical moments.

After figuring out the general strength level of the saintess and her party, Lude returned to the temple to start the "pre-battle deployment".

First of all, the three sisters had to work overtime, leading their God Envoy engineering team to assault the fifth floor of the labyrinth.Lude estimated that the first four floors should not be a problem for the saintess and her party, so they had to complete the persuasion on the fifth floor.Then Lude appointed Shanisi and Hume to enter the maze with him, and the rest stayed at the temple to wait for orders.

At this time, Aina, who had been silent before, suddenly raised her hand. She looked at Lude eagerly, and hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Master, I also want to participate in this operation."

"This is not an outing, why are you joining in the fun?"

"I, I know it's not an outing, but I want to help, master, just please... take me!"

As Aina spoke, she immediately showed cute and pitiful eyes like a small animal, trying to get away with it, but Lude stepped forward and patted her head, and then persuaded her with a wry smile.

"Hey, don't make trouble! The situation this time is different from before, and it seems a bit inappropriate to bring you along. When there is a suitable action next time, I will definitely take you with me."

"It's definitely next time...Master, just fool me!"

Seeing that Lude still refused to agree, Aina lowered her head, muttered a few words aggrievedly, then turned her head and left the meeting room as if angry.Lu De originally wanted to call out to the other party, but his outstretched hand hung in the air for a long time, and finally he took it back.

Lude knew that in the previous operations, because Aina had been playing the role of "mobile battery pack" and "atmosphere team member", she couldn't help but lose her temper, and would appear not far from Lude from time to time. The small eyes full of resentment stared at him fiercely.

Whenever this happens, Lude will cook himself, cook some delicious dishes that Aina likes, and coax this gluttonous fool goddess.But recently, it seems that this trick has not worked so well.

So taking advantage of the in-depth private communication with Hume at night, Lu De mentioned this incident in passing, and wanted Hume to give him a trick.

As a result, as soon as he said this, Hume, who was wearing a pink ultra-short nurse's uniform and garter net stockings, suddenly frowned, and said condescendingly to Lude with a smile that was not a smile.

"I said... my sister specially dressed like this to serve you, but your kid mentions other women when you are doing business. Believe it or not, I have become an old grandmother now, so I can give you some different stimulation?"

As Hume said, the originally smooth and healthy wheat-colored skin immediately became wrinkled at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the two "ergonomic miracles" that Lude couldn't put it down quickly shriveled and sagged, making Lude tremble all over. Hurry up and apologize.

"Sister, sister! Don't do this! I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

Seeing that Lude's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good, Hume's appearance returned to his original youthful state in seconds, and then he lay on Lude's chest, stretched out a finger and gently poked his chest and said.

"You! You just raised that stupid girl as a daughter. No matter how you say it, she is still a god, and she is also a god at the peak state of the third level. Don't subconsciously treat her like a fragile mortal girl!"

"Then you mean, take her with you in this operation?"

"Take it! Anyway, the maze is actually your own territory, and you have created an image of a peerless master for yourself, saying that you brought your disciples into the maze to gain insights. What can the saint say? Sometimes I am really I don't understand, what are you worrying about?"

Under Hume's suggestion, Lude changed his mind the next day and agreed to let Aina participate in this operation, but asked her to follow him closely throughout the whole process and never leave out of sight.

Seeing Master change his words, Aina was as happy as a child.

A few days later, members of the Heroic Spirit Squad disguised as senior adventurers arrived one after another.In order to be more in line with the impression of "adventurers", everyone did not use their original appearance of a beautiful girl, but turned into a muscular macho with various rough lines, with exaggerated pectoral muscles one by one!

In the end, the entire team included 22 members of the Saintess Trial Group, four mentors and apprentices from Lude's side, and five guides, for a total of 31 people.In addition, there were some idle adventurers who heard that the saint was going to break into the maze, so they took the initiative to run to join them. Celica did not recruit these people, but he had no right to prevent them from entering the maze with him, so when they reached the entrance of the maze, the whole The team had swelled to several hundred people.

Looking at the mighty "fan army" that can't be shaken off, and the beliefs pouring out of their heads, Lu De couldn't help feeling a little bit in his heart for a moment. There is no one's appeal.

Everyone came to the entrance of the maze. Compared with when it was first discovered by adventurers last year, the front of the entrance has completely changed. The original dense forest was cleared out of an open space, and the dwarf soldiers stationed here to maintain the order of the maze built The barracks can be lived in for a long time, and there is even extra leisure to rest the entrance of the cave where the maze is located. The square gate highlights the obsessive-compulsive disorder of the dwarves that is in an advanced state.

With these dwarf soldiers settling here for a long time, all kinds of characters came one after another, making this place gradually look like a small town in the forest.

And the arrival of the Saintess and her party made the place more lively than ever, and the atmosphere was almost like a carnival.

After the group arrived at the entrance of the maze, under Lude's suggestion, they did not rush into the maze immediately, but set up camp first, rested on the ground for one night, and waited until the next morning to act again.

The young followers were gearing up one by one, preparing to rush into the demon's territory and make a big fuss, completely unaware of what kind of "limited-time event" was waiting for their arrival underground.

End of this chapter

Because of the arrival of the saint, the labyrinth, which had been deserted for a whole winter, suddenly became overcrowded.

Among these adventurers chasing the saint, some are indeed "star chasers", hoping to get in touch with the saint's team, and some want to be "maze vultures" and plan to follow the saint's team Picking up leaks later, thinking about getting some things that big guys don't like.

In Lude's view, this gang of mobs is here to add chaos.But miscellaneous fish are not completely useless, at least they can play a big role in muddying the water.

According to Lude's statistics, more than [-]% of the adventurers who have entered the maze are only active on the first floor of the maze.

But the space on the first floor is relatively limited, and the number and quality of the treasure chests are also the lowest, so when the number of adventurers increases, it will naturally appear that there are too many monks, and it is inevitable that they will be rolled up.

As a result, some villainous adventurers with evil intentions aimed their malicious eyes at other colleagues.This group of people entered the maze without exploring or looking for treasure chests. They just looked for places suitable for ambushes and waited for other adventurers to fall into the trap.

The intricate topography in the maze also created favorable conditions for the perpetrators to destroy their bodies and traces.

For this kind of ugly behavior, Lu De, as the maze designer, soon had a countermeasure of "controlling violence with violence".Referring to the settings in some Earth games, he created a "red name mechanism". Any adventurer who kills people in the maze will get a special buff.

This BUFF will enhance the strength of the killer to a certain extent, and at the same time will not be attacked by the organs in the maze.But as a price, this gain BUFF will make him glow red all over, and at the same time there is a blood-colored skeleton that will continue to make strange screams suspended above his head, attracting other adventurers around him.

In a sense, as long as you get this BUFF, it is basically equivalent to changing from a "player" to a "wild monster". As long as other adventurers successfully kill him, the famous red monster, they can get a map. There will be a stash where the treasure chest is hidden.

This mechanism does curb the phenomenon of "malicious PVP" in the maze to a certain extent, but it is far from being eradicated.

Early the next morning, everyone who had rested overnight prepared to enter the maze.The Holy Maiden's logistics team packed their equipment and bags in advance, and everyone had enough food and water for seven days in their backpacks.Lu De, who was in the same company, also generously donated money and sent everyone a "gift package of magic medicine".

It is worth mentioning that the four people on Lude's side specially brought two sets of portable cameras, one in Lude's hands and one in Aina's.While serving as the rescue team, the master and apprentice also shoulder the function of "war reporters", preparing to record the heroic appearance of the saint and her party in the maze.

After everything was ready, everyone came to the entrance of the maze in the underground hall, and some of the adventurers who came here surrounded the saint's team, while others with active minds entered the maze one step ahead, preparing to "Respond" to the saint in the maze.
