Chapter 2217: Not so easy to leave
What does this mean?
The few of them did not quite understand, but they still carefully observed the nine rows of lifeforms above.
"Look," White Robe suddenly pointed to the position of the ninth row, above their graphics.
Jie Su looked and was somewhat enlightened.
Ye Zhongming nodded. "It is indeed them."
He had noticed before White Robe shouted. Above their graphics were two clear human figures. They were Little Ninth Brother and Wen Hong.
"Look, there are also numbers!"
Because these graphics varied in size, the graphics were the most conspicuous elements rather than the text. So everyone's attention was initially drawn to these graphics. It was not until White Robe pointed to the lower-right corners of these graphics that they noticed short text there.
"Are these... combinations that have undergone trials?"
Although Jie Su used a questioning tone, everyone knew it was confirmation. The presence of Little Ninth Brother and Wen Hong told them that.
They just had not expected that they themselves were not the darlings of heaven. Before them, nine groups of people had entered this place and undergone trials.
They looked again at those texts. They should record the number of trials each group had passed. Because in the lower-right corner of the three people and one dragon graphics, it was marked with a number like 3-3. It should represent that they had passed the third round of the third stage.
Their gazes naturally looked upward, at the numbers of Little Ninth Brother and Wen Hong.
Their number was 3-3.
The same as themselves?
Having heard Ye Zhongming say that the strength of these two people was not high, how had they also passed the trials?
Unable to figure this out, the several people could only look further up.
Among these ten rows of graphics, each group that had undergone trials had a different number of participants, ranging from as few as one person to as many as over a hundred. However, the results were not necessarily better with more people. The group of 100 people in the second row had only passed through two complete stages. After that, they should have been completely annihilated in the 3-1 trial.
Because their graphics were dim. The currently obviously alive sides of Ye Zhongming and Wen Hong had bright graphics.
They looked further up. Besides them, there was one more bright row among the ten. That was the third row, a team of five people. But not all of them were bright; three of them were already dim, clearly dead.
Those who did not pass the trials should have died.
And that group was also the one among the ten rows that had passed the most trials. Above them, it said 8-3.
They had actually passed the eighth round!
This was something the several people could not understand for the time being. Were they peak experts?
Only people at that level could have passed eight full rounds of trials, right?!
"I just wonder what era each group came from to undergo the trials, and whether those two figures are still alive."
White Robe said with a sigh.
They had already seen that these two lifeforms were unknown to them. They should not be among the famous experts of the myriad races of the universe. Of course, whether they were clandestine ones was unknown, because many myriad races could not be identified by appearance alone.
"Right now, I just want to know why the voice telling us to choose to leave hasn't appeared yet."
As Ye Zhongming said this, he had a somewhat bad feeling.
"About to enter the fourth stage of trials. Please choose to continue or give up."
The anticipated voice appeared, making everyone relax.
Although they had already made the decision, the three people and one dragon still exchanged glances and still decided to choose to give up.
But Ye Zhongming called out to everyone, not letting them make the choice immediately.
He noticed that the reward points from the last completed trial had not yet been given. If they directly chose to give up, wouldn't they be teleported away immediately? That would mean each of them losing an average of ten thousand Furelai points. That was too many.
But there was no response, no explanation. Still the same prompt to choose to continue or give up.
"Is it this unintelligent?" White Robe tried many methods without getting a response. He was so angry he wanted to hit the energy door.
"We'd better leave. If we lose out, then there is nothing we can do," Jie Su said after trying as well.
Everyone could only nod helplessly, and all chose to give up.
But things were far from what they thought. After they all chose to give up, the voice changed to this prompt.
"Because the previous group of testers chose Fusion Method and automatically became the guardians of this place, when the new group of testers chooses to end the trials, they need to kill the guardians to leave. If the guardians win, they will obtain the qualification to leave."
"Please choose to allocate points..."
After the voice finished, the previous ranking of testers disappeared. The several people's graphics once again occupied the entire energy door.
Ye Zhongming immediately cursed inwardly. Sure enough, it wasn't that easy to leave!
………………………………
Kunzuo panted heavily, his entire body drenched in sweat.
As a peak expert, it had been far too long since he had been so defeated.
Ever since these energy walls appeared around them, he had been attacking. Every time, he used his full strength. Up to now, he had attacked a full eight times!
But there had been no effect at all.
The eight attacks seemed not great, but they were the full-power strikes of a peak expert, enhanced by a Lie God-grade piece of equipment. The consumption was significant on its own. After eight attacks, Kunzuo had only thirty percent of his combat effectiveness left.
He knew he could not attack again. Otherwise, if anything changed, the entire Huo'er Star people would lose their greatest means of emergency response.
He could only let his tribesmen continue attacking.
But then, at a certain moment, the energy walls suddenly lit up. Then, the inner side, which had been as smooth as a crystal surface, began to counter these attacks. The Huo'er Star people, completely unprepared, suddenly suffered heavy casualties.
Although there had been no tabulation yet, casualties in the tens of thousands were certain.
This made everyone afraid to make any moves, fearing they would cause even greater damage. Even Kunzuo himself did not dare to attack casually.
Nothing had happened just now. Why could it repel now?
Kunzuo calmed his body. Then, after some thought, he had a great expert launch an attack toward the position where Huozhi was in the air.
Just now, some had attacked the walls, others had attacked the pressing mist. The former repelled the attacks, but the latter still had an effect, pushing the mist back upward. Now, Huozhi's figure could be vaguely seen.
This great expert launched an attack. Kunzuo immediately prepared to go over. If the attack was repelled, he would catch it, preventing other tribesmen from getting hurt.
The attack landed not far from Huozhi. Aside from dispelling some mist, it had no effect. Naturally, it wasn’t repelled either.
This made Kunzuo feel like he had grasped something. He immediately had the clan's great experts attack Huozhi.
Others, due to their limited strength, truly had no way against Huozhi, who was protected by gray mist and high above.
