Chapter 59 Lord Trial
The sound of the conch horn disappeared, and the mammoths returned to normal, wagging their tails and leaving happily.
It's as if nothing happened.
But on the cliff, Zhang Yang's soul force field suddenly exploded and activated the confinement spell at the same time, locking onto the most ferocious and powerful tiger leader. In an instant, this guy fell straight down like a drowning fish.
However, this confinement spell only lasted for a few seconds. The last second gave all the tiger people a mental shock, that is, the soul force field was highly compressed and reached the critical point of materialization. At this time, the deterrent power of the soul force field was extremely strong, and even Wu Yuan, a quasi-hero, could not bear it.
Seeing those ten previously arrogant tiger people turned into gourds all over the ground, stumbling here and there, Zhang Yang retracted the soul force field and confiscated all their weapons without saying a word. Although this behavior was unworthy of the identity of a dignified soul sorcerer/cultivator/magician, but at this moment, what did his identity matter?
"Wu Yuan, what are you still standing there for? Tie them all up!"
Wu Yuan, who had just woken up from a dream, quickly joined in. A few minutes later, all ten tiger people turned into dumplings. After recovering from the soul shock, they roared and cursed, but it was of no avail.
"Wu Yuan, repeat the question you asked just now. If they dare not cooperate again, you will bleed them one by one." Zhang Yang said viciously. This sudden incident caused him a great loss. Although he didn't care at all about the death of all the people in the Guada tribe, this matter was related to the population recruitment after the end of the hero trial.
So Wu Yuan started fighting with those tiger people again, and this time the other side cooperated more, especially when Wu Yuan smashed the thigh of a tiger man without saying a word.
"Village chief, their tribe is far away from here, probably over five mountains. Their tribe is also very powerful, with hundreds of warriors alone, and they are blessed by the Son of the Sun."
"As for the young Gai they are hunting down, he is the new priest of their tribe. His parents were priests of the previous generation, but because they angered the Son of the Sun, they were sacrificed to the Son of the Sun by the tribal leader. Then the tribal leader appointed Gai as the new priest. But unexpectedly, one night, the young Gai stole the tribe's sacred artifact and fled. This is why they came to hunt him down."
"But that young man was very cunning. There were thirty warriors in his group, but they were the only ones left after they died along the way."
After listening to Wu Yuan's narration, Zhang Yang nodded. Fortunately, according to this statement, the male protagonist of the movie was not a blackened boss. He just left in anger because his parents were killed by the tribal leader.
As for the destruction of the four tribes of Guata, Erhu, Suola and Huaka, it is very regrettable. Most of them were innocent innocents.
"Go ask again, what exactly is the Son of the Sun? What artifact did that young Gai steal? And what exactly is the end of the world?"
"Yes, village chief."
Wu Yuan took the order and left. This time, his negotiations with the tiger people took a long time because they were quite uncooperative when faced with this core belief issue. In the end, Wu Yuan was forced to kill two tiger people before he got the answer.
"Village chief, the Son of the Sun they are talking about lives in a high mountain. Under the mountain is a scorching flame that can bring them light and warmth even in the dark night. But sometimes, if someone in the tribe offends the Son of the Sun, it will get angry and erupt with countless flames to punish the tribe."
"In their tribe, the priests are responsible for communicating with the Son of the Sun. The method of communication is a large conch horn, a sacred artifact that can command wild beasts. We were almost trampled to death by a mammoth just now. It was probably that young man who blew the horn."
At this point, Zhang Yang finally understood.
"What the hell is Son of the Sun? It's clearly an active volcano, and a very active one at that. Now I understand why the hero in the movie is so sure that the end of the world will come. It's because his parents are priests who communicate with the Son of the Sun, and he is also a priest, so he knows very well that the active volcano is going to erupt. No, he may not understand that it is a volcano, but he realizes that the Son of the Sun has become more violent and absolutely cannot be appeased."
"However, the male protagonist Guy seems to have a lot of conch horns in his hand. There is nothing magical about it in the movie plot, but from what happened just now, it is enough to prove that it is a magic prop. Should I grab it?"
Just as Zhang Yang was thinking of this, a piece of information suddenly appeared.
"The hidden plot has been triggered. The difficulty of the trial has been upgraded. The Hero Trial has been officially upgraded to the Lord Trial. Do you want to continue? Friendly reminder, this trial is not mandatory, but once accepted, it cannot be terminated. Countdown to accept: 30 minutes."
"I'm Minato! What the hell?"
Zhang Yang was stunned, then he thought seriously for a while. If the Hero Trial was upgraded to the Lord Trial, it would definitely be more difficult, because this trial would not be against those ferocious beasts, but would most likely unlock a hidden plot and face the huge volcano directly.
Under normal circumstances, whoever chooses to accept it is seeking death.
But judging from the information obtained from torturing the tiger tribe just now, this big volcano is probably not an ordinary volcano, because this volcano can communicate with conch horns. Is it going to change to a fantasy style? Is there a monster hidden in this volcano? "Continue to torture them and ask how the young man Gai's parents died. Were they thrown directly into the flaming magma under the mountain, or were they burned to death by something? No details can be left out."
Zhang Yang did not rush to accept it, but decided to collect more fragments of information. Yes, he was indeed eager to try. It was not because he was bold and stupid, but because he had been studying fire and fireball spells for the past four days, and had some experience.
Without this as a basis, he would have refused without a second thought.
Soon, Wu Yuan reported: "The parents of the young man Gai are the most outstanding priests in the Tiger Tribe. In the past fifteen years, they have successfully appeased the Son of the Sun many times. The Son of the Sun has also brought the greatest benefits to the Tiger Tribe, with good weather and abundant harvests every year."
"But last year, for some reason, the Son of the Sun became irritable and kept punishing the Tiger Tribe, causing great losses. Gai's parents tried their best but could not appease the Son of the Sun. After many failures, they finally attracted the suspicion of the Tiger Tribe. So the Tiger Tribe leader tied them up and put them on the Son of the Sun's altar, roasting them for three days and three nights, and finally they were swallowed by a ball of dancing flames."
"Wait, keep asking, what did the dancing flames look like? Was there any volcanic ash, or black smoke or magma?"
Zhang Yang's eyes lit up, he knew about volcanic eruptions, there were many kinds of materials erupted, but simply ejecting flames, especially jumping flames, was very rare.
"Reporting to the village chief, they said they didn't see too much black smoke, and the flames were really jumping, as if the Son of the Sun had come in person. Oh, I understand what you mean, sir. Yes, the Tiger Tribe never regarded the flames under the mountain as the Son of the Sun. They just regarded it as the residence of the Son of the Sun. I will go ask again."
Wu Yuan also started thinking about it, and soon he excitedly relayed: "That's right, village chief, the tiger people have seen the Son of the Sun more than once. It is a ball of dancing flames, just like the sun. It can control more flames, control the earth and the sky, including the mountain and the flames under the mountain."
At this point, Zhang Yang understood that the so-called Lord Trial was not asking him to seal an active volcano that was about to explode. Just kidding, this task could be accomplished even if Superman came - well, Superman came.
But if this active volcano is controlled by some kind of monster, well, let's say it is controlled by a monster, and one day the monster gets furious and detonates the active volcano, then the nature and difficulty will be different.
After thinking for a while with a gloomy expression, Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and chose to accept it.
Let's give it a try. If you win, go to the club. If you lose, go home and eat melons! Swish! A series of information was mapped out.
"The Lord Trial has officially begun. The trial duration is three days and cannot be changed."
"Trial mission: Please seal the low-level fire spirits in the tiger tribe's territory within 72 hours to prevent them from detonating the active volcano. If the seal fails, the active volcano will erupt."
"Trial rewards: 500 people recruitment limit, 2 two-star hero templates (can directly promote captain-level soldiers to heroes), 1 special territory building, 1 special territory construction tool, 3 white hope fragments."
