Your Highness, please spare the concubine

"Fortunately, His Highness has a pair of insightful eyes, and he is willing to spend a lot of money to buy them, which solves my urgent need."

"At that time, I heard from the auction house that you bought it. In fact, I have always wanted to find a chance to meet you."

"I think that since you understand the value of this rune, you are at least willing to help me with my research..."

"Even if I can find someone to talk about it... I'm very happy."

"But you are the imperial daughter of the empire. As far as I am concerned, I can't even get close to the outside of the imperial city."

"As a last resort, I can only take the money you gave me and leave Munsell. At this time, I just heard from the Adventurers Union that there have been magic dens appearing everywhere in the mainland recently..."

"I originally wanted to try my luck, so I came to this Yanesok Devil's Nest..."

Lu Yu smiled wryly.

"I don't know if it was fate. I really found the rune here..."

Hearing this, Xianfei couldn't help asking: "Could it be that treasure mountain just now is empty?"

"Yes. In fact, those things are not treasures, but illusions created by sealing runes." Lu Yu explained.

Wei Lisi said that before, but Xianfei still didn't believe it.

Now that Lu Yu said it, Xianfei couldn't help but not believe it.

"So, why create such an illusion? Is it a trap? And who made it?"

Facing Xianfei's question, Lu Yu sighed and said, "It's a trap, and it's also a seal. As for who made it, I don't know, maybe it's a god..."

"Seal? God?"

"That's right, there is a demon king sealed under the rune."

"The devil?!" Wei Lisi was startled, "I've never heard of that kind of thing."

"Your Highness, you can just regard them as very terrifying monsters. It is said that they can transform into human forms." Lu Yu said.

"Is that the demon king sealed by the Sun Goddess?" Willis asked again.

She only said this when she thought of system tasks.

Otherwise, she didn't even know who the Sun Goddess was before.

These words made Lu Yu surprised: "I didn't expect His Highness to know the Sun Goddess!?"

"I also analyzed some of the runes not long ago, only to realize that this is the place under the seal of the Sun Goddess, and a huge evil is buried inside."

"Then what do you mean when you say it's both a seal and a trap?" Xianfei interrupted and asked.

"Because the demon king is sealed in that place, the Sun Goddess also set up many traps in order to prevent creatures from approaching and destroying the seal."

"Including organs, labyrinths, countless monsters, and phantoms of Baoshan, it is to eliminate all possibilities that may break the seal."

Hearing this, Xianfei said with a solemn expression: "It seems that the things sealed inside must be serious, otherwise why would you be so cautious?"

"I'm not sure about this. In fact, it's all my speculation up to now." Lu Yu said.

"Then since this place is so dangerous, why don't we leave now? Does Miss Lu Yu know how to get out?"

"know."

"That's not too soon..."

"It's useless." Lu Yu interrupted her, smiling sadly, "We can't go anymore."

"Why!?" Xianfei didn't know why.

At this time, Wei Lisi stretched out her hand and pointed to her forehead: "Because of this thing."

"Your Highness really found out..."

Following the prompts of the two, Xianfei looked at Lu Yu and Wei Lisi.

After careful inspection at close range, she discovered that there was a very faint golden sun imprint on Lu Yu's brow.

And the one between Wei Lisi's eyebrows is more conspicuous and solid.

She didn't pay attention just now, but when she saw it now, she didn't know when this thing appeared! ?

She quickly touched her forehead, and Lu Yu sighed: "Don't look, as long as you kill the monster guard in the lair, this mark will automatically appear."

"Everyone here has it."

"Escaping is impossible. If you stay too far away from the lair, after a period of time, the imprint will directly erupt and kill the host."

"And it will disappear slowly. The moment it disappears, it will also explode, and the host will die."

"You can only increase the brightness of this mark if you keep entering the lair and killing the monsters in it."

"Before I came, many people had already died because of this."

"Fortunately, it wasn't too late. I rescued these people in the cave one after another."

"During this period, I kept using the runes I possessed to attract monsters and let everyone kill them... But everyone is like this, I guess it won't last long..."

While talking, a wounded man lying in the cave suddenly screamed!

Suddenly, a golden flame burned from his brow...

Then in just a few seconds, his whole body was burned to ashes~!

Xianfei's eyes widened, but the other people around her didn't speak at all, they just sighed and showed a sad expression.

After all, they are fast too.

Lu Yu said sadly: "This is the sun goddess' imprint breaking out. If it was the demon king's curse, scarlet mist would appear all over his body, and he would dry up and die, including those who were related to him by blood."

Xianfei clenched her fists and said in distress: "Then we are trapped here to death because of this mark? Are we going to keep fighting those monsters!?"

"Yes. Those stone monsters will be resurrected after a while."

After finishing speaking, both of them had wry smiles on their faces.

The three were silent for a minute.

Wei Lisi asked: "Miss Lu Yu, do you know why there is a change in this magic cave?"

Lu Yu nodded: "It's because the magic power spewing from the lower level of the magic cave has increased, so the second and third level monsters are more active."

"It's hard to say how long it will last, but it may not change in a short time."

"When we came, we also saw a few caves disguised with runes. Did you make them?" Willis asked again.

"Yes." Lu Yu admitted, "I just set up a disguise to prevent other people from finding this place, or intruding in by mistake... But I didn't expect you to come here anyway, Your Highness."

Xianfei also thought of a question at this time: "Some survivors escaped from here before, but they still died, including their relatives. Do you know why?"

Lu Yu said with a speculative tone: "I just said it, it's because of the sealed demon king."

"Because the power of the demon king is leaking the infection, you also saw that the stone spear guarding the monster will explode and there will be scarlet mist, which is because of the infection by the demon king."

"As long as you touch that, you will also be cursed by the devil's strange ability and die in the end."

"Not to mention that there is still the imprint of the Sun Goddess."

After all, the three were completely silent.

Now, if you leave, you will die. If you don't leave, you will have to face endless battles to keep the mark between the eyebrows from disappearing.

In the end, I'm afraid I still can't escape the end of death!

When Xianfei and Lu Yu were at a loss, Wei Lisi suddenly asked: "Miss Lu Yu, do you know where the road to the third floor of the magic cave is?"

Lu Yu nodded: "I know, I know, but what are you going to do, Your Highness?"

"Send me to the third floor, I may have a way to break the deadlock of this imprint."

Wei Lisi's words aroused everyone's emotions.

"what!?"

Volume 152#Chapter [-] The Way to Rescue

Originally, everyone staying here was nothing more than waiting to die.

The reason for not going out is just that I don't want to hurt other people.

After all, the mark on the top of the head has always existed, and it has to keep hunting monsters to maintain it.

Even if they are lucky, they can keep hunting the monsters in the lair to survive.

But over time, the food, water and other necessities they need will be depleted.

Not to mention staying in this devil's lair all the time, the spirit alone will be under tremendous pressure.

No one can tell how many monsters are around here, and when they will be found and killed again.

It is nothing more than awe and fear of death, otherwise some people would have been unable to accept this fact and committed suicide.

At this moment, Wei Lisi's words immediately gave them hope.

Although some don't believe that Wei Lisi can do it, she is the imperial daughter after all, and it is reasonable to have unknown mysteries in her body.

Facing everyone's expectant and enthusiastic eyes, Lu Yu hugged Wei Lisi with both hands excitedly, staring at her closely.

"Your Highness, are you telling the truth?"

"Do you really... really have a way?"

But Wei Lisi was actually not sure, she pretended to be calm and said at the moment: "It should be fine."

In fact, she has no idea.

According to the mission of the system, as long as you kill a thousand monsters in the lair, you can get the real mark of the sun goddess.

And the imprint on their eyebrows can only be said to be a fake imprint.

It's like a pool that isn't filled with water because it doesn't hit the required kill count.

Its existence brings danger at any time.

And once it is full, it is very likely that a certain mechanism will be triggered to stop everything.

After all, in Wei Lisi's mind, the mark of the Sun Goddess should only be given to one person at the same time.

If there are multiple testers, wouldn't there be competition and conflict in the follow-up tasks?

There will also be uncertainty.

If this conjecture is true, then as long as she obtains the real Sun Goddess mark, then the marks on other people's eyebrows will automatically disappear.

But if you want to kill a thousand monsters, you still need to kill them yourself.

Wei Lisi must improve her state to the best!

Then, she has to complete the task and rewards of [Entering the Third Floor of the Devil's Nest] issued by the system, and get the Seraph suit!

In this way, the possibility of her passing through the Devil's Nest will be much greater!

Now, Wei Lisi brought up the system panel, and saw a counting number on the task bar of the Sun Goddess's test.

0/1000!

There is also a line of small characters at the back.

Notes: Count reset to zero due to host being out of combat for more than 5 hours.

Warning: Please keep fighting until the count reaches one thousand, otherwise the mission cannot be completed!

Wei Lisi remembered that she had killed at least a hundred monsters in that empty lair before.

But now it's all back to zero!

It is equivalent to that all the previous narrow escapes were in vain!

But this is also expected.

If you can rely on the continuous accumulation of kills and rest in the middle.

Then Lu Yu might have already passed the test.

After all, she has the runes that can make those stone puppets lose their senses, as long as they attract some monsters to kill each time.

After resting for a while, go to attract monsters again.
