Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Charcoal Grilled Mermaid Dried Fish
Qi Jiayi got off the snow dog's back.
After landing, Xun Li glanced at her and said, "Junior sister, you seem to have grown taller."
He looks taller than before.
Qi Jiayi nodded: "Yes, the fruits here have miraculous effects. Eating them will make you grow taller."
Xunli frowned slightly and lowered his brows as if thinking about something.
The two people and one beast began to walk inside.
I didn't see any orcs on the way in, nor did I see any danger in the tower.
The Snow Dog was shocked: "Didn't the Golden Crow ask the little demon from the bird tribe to protect you? But he disappeared as soon as he came in."
As they finished speaking, they turned a corner and saw the group of little orcs.
At this moment, they all turned into beasts, opened their mouths and ate something, with gluttonous looks on their faces.
Looking again, what they swallowed was a translucent floating object.
Qi Jiayi: "What do they eat?"
Xun Li glanced at the translucent object floating in front of him and said, "It looks like a wandering soul."
"Wandering soul?"
These wandering souls seemed to be unafraid of the attack ability and just floated past her.
She tried to chop it with her sword, but the wandering soul disappeared.
Qi Jiayi found that the sword in his hand seemed a little different, becoming tougher.
The Snow Dog stuck out its tongue. "I don't know why, but I feel like this is going to be delicious. I want to eat it."
There are a lot of wandering souls on the first level. Even if those little ones eat happily and quickly, they can’t eat them all.
Xun Li stretched out his hand and touched a wandering soul, but in the blink of an eye, the wandering soul disappeared from his fingertips. He clearly felt the spiritual power in his body increase.
Looking at those little guys who eat wandering souls, their cultivation is constantly improving.
"Junior sister, put the Snow Spirit Dog into the storage ring."
As Xun Li finished speaking, Qi Jiayi quickly put the Snow Spirit Dog into the ring and asked, "What's wrong? What did you find?"
"These wandering souls are equivalent to spiritual energy. Once touched, they will be absorbed into spiritual power."
"That's great. This way my cultivation level will increase quickly." Qi Jiayi felt that the demon world was a blessed land, and so were the spiritual fruits. Every bite of them was filled with spiritual energy.
Xunli controlled the wind in his palm and blew away the wandering souls: "Do you still remember the eight words on the tower?"
"No one above the Nascent Soul stage is allowed to enter."
"If our cultivation level were to rise to the Nascent Soul stage, we would probably be excluded from the tower."
As soon as he finished speaking, a little orc disappeared on the spot because he had eaten too many wandering souls and his cultivation level increased too quickly.
Qi Jiayi paused: "Was he wiped out, or did he leave?"
"It is very likely that he has left." According to the information he obtained after infiltrating the Mink Tribe, the priests in the Heavenly Demon Tower do not kill any living beings during sacrifice.
When asked about the reason, the patriarch said he didn't know, and only said that it has always been like this. Their father and mother have been doing this, generation after generation, until now.
There is another point that Xunli did not explain, that wandering souls are also souls.
Xunli scanned with his spiritual sense and found the stone stairs leading upstairs. He pointed and said, "The stairs are over there, go up."
Qi Jiayi glanced at the orcs who were still devouring the wandering souls. Their gluttonous appearance was indeed the same delicacy that Peacock described: "What about these orcs?"
Xunli: "It depends on your luck."
After they climbed up the stone stairs, an orc saw this and suddenly gave up devouring the wandering souls and followed them.
Qi Jiayi looked back and saw that there were quite a few orcs following them.
"careful."
As soon as I stepped into the second floor of the Heavenly Demon Tower, a running fire man rushed towards me.
The fire man had a head, hands and feet, but his entire body was on fire, and only the red and black body could be seen within the flames.
The mermaid reacted very quickly, spitting out a mouthful of water and repelling the fire man.
Qi Jiayi glanced at the mermaid who made the move and said, "Thank you very much."
The mermaid looked at her unhappily, his eyes moving back and forth over her body, as if looking for something.
Xunli recognized the merman, who had been standing next to the dog, and reminded Qi Jiayi, "He should be looking for the Snow Spirit Dog."
"Oh, I see." Qi Jiayi released the Snow Dog from the ring.
The little mermaid was visibly happy.
Come over and touch the snow dog's ears.
The Snow Spirit Dog did not resist him and said to Qi Jiayi: "This little mermaid is called Yuan, and this is his first time in the Heavenly Demon Tower."
Qi Jiayi nodded at the mermaid. Although the mermaid was a small mermaid, she was much taller than her, so she had to look up to see him.
The fire men on the second floor of the Heavenly Demon Tower are not as friendly as the wandering souls on the first floor.
It would rush towards anyone or any animal it saw, and would not stop until it had burned them to death.
The bird-tribe orcs still remembered the words of their chief, and immediately spit fire or turned their hands into wings to burn the fire man and add some wind to the fire.
Not only did it fail to repel or burn the fire man, but it actually helped the fire in the fire man burn even more vigorously.
The snow dogs were stunned: "Can you please stop making trouble?"
The bird-clan beastman also realized that he had done something wrong and lowered his head. If he were in beast form, his head would probably have burrowed into the feathers.
The hotter the fire on the firemen, the faster they move.
The Fur Tribe is most afraid of the Fire Man. If they encounter one, the fur on their bodies will be burned by the fire on the Fire Man.
He hid timidly behind Xunli.
The Stone Barbarians don't have any hair on their bodies, but their tough-looking skin doesn't seem to be very heat-resistant.
But they were ferocious, and the sharp horns on their heads pushed the fire man away.
It seems that the mermaids can deal with the fire men.
It’s just that the mermaid used the water she spit out to repel the fire man, but failed to kill it, causing the fire on the fire man to burn again and pounce on it again.
I saw the fire man rushing up again with a raging fire.
Qi Jiayi made hand seals with both hands and controlled the water to drown the fire man that was rushing up.
"Come behind me."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the bird-tribe orcs hurriedly ran behind her.
Seeing her actions, the merman named Yuan was very surprised: "You can spit water too?"
"No." Qi Jiayi said concisely, and shot a water ball to the left with his right hand, repelling the fire man who was attacking from the left.
It was a little difficult for the Fur Tribe orcs to deal with the Fire Man, but they did not do nothing. They got a very long stick from somewhere and poked the Fire Man away from a distance.
There are as many fire men as there are wandering souls on the first floor, too numerous to count.
The wandering soul does not attack, but provides spiritual energy, while this fire man purely causes damage.
Seeing this, Qi Jiayi stopped using the water to attack and instead used his sword to chop.
It was easier to cut than she had imagined, especially since she focused on stabbing the joints of the fire men's arms. She could easily chop off their arms and then remove their legs.
After chopping off two more, she became more skilled at cutting off the arms and legs of the fire men.
Seeing Xunli holding the black wooden sword, Qi Jiayi frowned, thinking that wooden swords would not be fireproof.
"Senior Sister, use my sword." She handed it over.
Xunli did not refuse when he saw this.
They fought all the way to the third floor.
However, there were too many firemen, and the more they fought, the more they appeared. They slowly gathered around, and the air around them was getting hotter and hotter. The mermaid could only repel one fireman with a sip of water at the beginning, but gradually it became more and more difficult to spit out water.
The Snow Dog couldn't help but stick out his tongue: "It's so hot, so hot, I can't stand it."
Turning around, I found Qi Jiayi didn't react at all: "Aren't you hot?"
Qi Jiayi blinked, "Is it hot?"
She didn't feel anything at all.
Xunli observed the four races of monsters.
Just now, the bird tribe worked together to spit fire to burn the fire man. Even though the fire man burned more vigorously, they were not afraid, which shows that they are not afraid of fire.
Among the other three tribes of orcs, the Stone Barbarians relied on their thick skin to resist.
Although the mermaids can spit water, they cannot withstand the burning of the fire, and the scales on their bodies no longer seem to have the moist and shiny luster they once had.
"Birds are not afraid of fire. The feather robe on Junior Sister should have the same effect."
As Xunli finished speaking.
Qi Jiayi looked down at the feather robe on his body and found that it had this effect!
The Snow Dog stuck out its tongue and said, "Give me some water, I'm dying of thirst."
After swallowing a ball of water, the Snow Spirit Dog's eyes moved around Qi Jiayi's feather coat, and then looked at the three bird-tribe orcs behind him.
Because their actions would only increase the fire man's strength, they just followed Qi Jiayi idly.
The Snow Dog rolled its eyes and turned its head to discuss something with them in a whisper.
After a while, when Qi Jiayi chopped off a fire man, he turned around and saw a large colorful head approaching.
"Hey, I'm smart, right?"
Under the colorful big head is the head of the snow dog.
His tone was filled with pleasure and a little arrogance.
Qi Jiayi looked in the direction he was talking. It didn't matter if she didn't look, the original form of the bird clan was quite large, and the Snow Spirit Dog was not small either.
He let the bird-tribe beastmen in their original forms squat on his head and back, with their spread wings just enough to cover his entire body.
"Hey, it's not hot anymore."
"Yuan. Oh my god, which one is you? You are about to be roasted like a dried fish. Come and hide for a while. It's very cool."
I originally wanted to ask Yuan to come over and enjoy the cool air, but when I saw those mermaids, they were all severely dehydrated.
Considering that the mermaids need to replenish water every hour, they have not been in the tower for long.
However, the fire man continued to burn, the mermaid also spit water to attack, and the air was so dry, I'm afraid that the water in the mermaid's body had been roasted away.
Yuan was not trying to be brave. He was really feeling uncomfortable and really wanted to jump back into the sea.
The mermen had all touched the Snow Dog and considered themselves familiar with it. When they heard him say that it was cool under the wings of the bird tribe, they all crowded over.
Originally, the bird tribe just stood on the head and back of the snow spirit dog and wrapped him up. The mermaids squeezed over, more than fifty of them. Fortunately, the bird tribe had wide wings, otherwise they would not be able to fit in.
The Fur Tribe had been following Xunli. There were too many fire people here. If they were not careful, they would get burned. The fur on their bodies would easily ignite, so they only dared to fight from a distance.
The only tribe with strong combat power was the Stone Barbarians, but they fought in a very scattered manner. There were twelve orcs, but only three or four were visible to the naked eye.
"This is not a solution." Xun Li easily took down a fire man, but there were too many fire men around and the sword in his hand was almost leaving an afterimage.
Qi Jiayi felt that his sword skills were getting smoother, and his fighting skills were no longer rigid and smoother: "The more I fight, the more fire men there are."
Suddenly, two orcs from the Stone Barbarian Tribe broke through the group of firemen and came to Qi Jiayi. They seemed a little shy and asked, "Water Ball, can I have one?"
Qi Jiayi pinched some magic formula to create two water balls, and the two Stone Barbarians opened their mouths to swallow them, with satisfaction on their faces as if they had drunk some water.
Seeing them, Qi Jiayi had an idea, "Do the rest of you tribesmen need water? Call them all over, I'll give you some water."
The eyes of the two orcs lit up, and soon the Stone Barbarians gathered together. With them around, the surrounding fire people were no longer afraid of the threat.
Qi Jiayi gave each of them a water ball and said with a smile, "After drinking the water, don't wander around. Let's get together and fight these firemen, and then go to the third floor."
The orcs of the Stone Barbarians shook their heads: "No, it's hard to fight together."
"Yes, it will hurt the tribe."
"Yeah, yeah, we can't do it together."
Seeing how strongly they objected, their chatter completely drowned out her voice.
Seeing that this group of Stone Barbarians were about to disperse after replenishing their water, Qi Jiayi took out the Beast Taming Bell from his ring in a hurry.
Ding-ling-ling~~
When the bell rang, all the orcs were startled.
Qi Jiayi seldom uses the Beast Taming Bell. She has always had it with her. Even in her previous life, she rarely used it to drive dragons.
After her rebirth, the Black Iron Turtle and the Snow Spirit Dog were able to communicate well, so she never took them out.
Seeing that they were all quiet, Qi Jiayi cleared his throat and said, "The situation is urgent now. You must listen to what I say and you are not allowed to refute."
"From the Stone Barbarian Tribe, the four of you will guard the left side of the Snow Spirit Dog, which is the white-haired dog. The four over there will go to the right side of the white-haired dog. The two of you will stand in the front, and the other two will be at the back."
"Stand at a distance that is as long as your arms can reach. When you fight, just use your horns to butt the firemen that are close to you. Don't run away while you're fighting."
"Senior Sister, you take charge of the front, and I will cover the rear." There are the least Stone Barbarians in front and behind, so fortunately she and Xunli can defend.
"Okay." Xun Li had no objection to her arrangement. As soon as he left, the Fur Tribe hurriedly followed him.
Xunli led the way in front, Qi Jiayi took out a flying magic weapon to help him observe the situation in mid-air, and then commanded the orcs of the Stone Barbarian Tribe to stop fighting and run away.
Go forward in an orderly manner.
As for the group of mermaids, the situation became more and more serious, and their skin became drier and drier.
Those on the edge of the wings were shaking, falling to the ground one after another and disappearing.
Qi Jiayi tried to use the Water Control Technique and threw it at them, but it had no effect at all.
Naturally, we don't expect them to fight.
"Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
The Snow Dog felt his fur tighten. It turned out that the mermaid began to slide down weakly, so he reached out and grabbed his fur.
Yuan's lips turned pale, and the scales on his body completely lost their luster. He said in a muffled voice, "I feel so uncomfortable."
"Hold on a little longer, we'll soon be out of this damn place." The Snow Spirit Dog was a little anxious.
"Look, we can already see the stone stairs leading to the third floor. Just hold on a little longer, we'll be there soon."
"Didn't you say that you mermaids have always been stuck at the second level? This time we can almost reach the third level. What a huge improvement."
I didn’t understand it before, but now the Snow Spirit Dog understands why the mermaids can only reach the second floor as Yuan said. It is because it is too hot and dry here, and as mermaids soaking in the water, they simply cannot bear it.
However, Yuan's eyelids were becoming increasingly heavy, and the other mermaids were not in much better condition either.
In just a short while, there were only about thirty mermaids left out of more than fifty, and the number was still decreasing.
Qi Jiayi saw it but could do nothing as the water she squeezed out had no effect on them.
"Oh, I have sea water on me." Snow Dog suddenly remembered that he had put sea water in his animal food bag: "Qi Jiayi, I have sea water here. It will help them."
Take out the bag of sea water from the snow dog's ring.
Qi Jiayi took a look and said, "I'm afraid this is not enough."
"How about you add some fresh water?" The Snow Dog knew that his idea was bad, but there was nothing he could do at this moment.
Qi Jiayi thought about it and decided to give it a try. He took some sea water and mixed it with water, then sprinkled it on a mermaid.
Unlike the water she pinched before which had no effect, the mixed seawater was quickly absorbed by the mermaid. The dried fish scales absorbed the water and seemed to be more hydrated. The situation looked much better: "Yes, it works."
Not knowing what would happen next, there was only this much sea water, so Qi Jiayi mixed it all and gave each mermaid a sip of water to keep them hanging.
Even if they were mixed together like this, that little bit of sea water was only enough for a mermaid to take a sip of life-saving water.
After putting the empty bag back into the Snow Dog's ring, Qi Jiayi dismantled a fire man.
Coincidentally, they also arrived at the stone stairs leading to the third floor.
The fire man's attacks became more and more fierce.
Fortunately, as they climbed up the stone stairs, the fire men seemed to have touched some kind of restriction and stopped moving forward and attacking.
The people and monsters present all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Looking at the orcs still left in the tower, except for one Fur Tribe who went out from the first floor, there were still two left who were following Xunli closely.
All twelve of the Stone Barbarians were present, and one of the Birds also went out on the first level, so the remaining three were still there.
Although the mermaids had replenished water, more than thirty of them had disappeared before the sea water was taken out, and now there are less than twenty left.
But it is also the most numerous among all orcs.
There were no wandering souls or firemen on the third floor, and the temperature became suitable.
But the third floor is very empty. Apart from a stone platform in the middle, there are walls all around and no stone stairs in sight.
Came to the stone platform in the center.
Seeing the words on the stone platform, Qi Jiayi pursed her lips and frowned.
The snow dog opened its mouth and then closed it.
Xun Li has been observing his surroundings since he reached the third floor. He scanned with his spiritual sense but did not find the entrance to the stone stairs leading higher.
It seemed that only the stone platform in the middle could find the answer. Before he approached, he saw that Qi Jiayi looked strange. Even the snow dog's expression was somewhat intriguing. He asked, "What's wrong?"
"Senior Sister, come and take a look." Qi Jiayi pointed to the stone platform.
Xunli walked closer and saw that there was only an arithmetic problem on the stone platform. It was a very simple one, within ten, and there were four options below the question.
The question was too simple, so simple that Qi Jiayi and the Snow Spirit Dog felt it was a trick.
"Isn't this a little too simple?" The Snow Dog felt that this was a bit of an insult to his intelligence.
Qi Jiayi squatted down and knocked on the bottom of the stone platform with the hilt of his sword to see if there was any mechanism or something.
Xun Li saw that she was looking for it seriously, so he stopped her and said, "Junior sister, you forgot, they can't read."
Qi Jiayi paused knocking on the stone platform. Yes, she could read, and when she saw such a simple question, she thought it was a trick, but these monsters were illiterate.
He glanced at the orcs who were surrounding the stone platform obediently but not moving.
Perhaps because Qi Jiayi rang the bell on the second floor, they did not run around when they reached the third floor, but stood still obediently.
After asking, I found out that they really didn't know what the stone platform meant. Those who had been there said that they had just chosen it randomly before.
If you are lucky, you can go directly to the fourth floor. If you are unlucky, you can go out directly.
After listening to the orcs, the Snow Spirit Dog said with emotion: "The demon world is in urgent need of a literacy class."
"Who of you will come first?" Qi Jiayi looked at the group of orcs.
The Stone Barbarians were eager to try and were about to press the button as they stood on the stone platform.
Qi Jiayi said hurriedly, "Don't worry, press this."
The question was answered correctly.
There was a sound of stones rubbing against each other, and the stone door leading to the fourth floor opened.
The orcs went in and the stone door closed immediately.
"Come on, next one, keep going."
Under Qi Jiayi's guidance, several orcs opened the stone stairs leading to the fourth floor one after another.
"You are so amazing, how come you always make the right choice?"
"Yes, yes, why do you get chosen every time?"
“That’s amazing.”
The other orcs all looked at Qi Jiayi with admiration.
The Snow Dog sighed sincerely: "They are totally at a disadvantage because of their lack of education."
Only after sending all the illiterate orcs up did Qi Jiayi and his men go up.
When Qi Jiayi really reached the fourth level, it felt unreal. It was too easy. How could the questions in the secret realm of trial be arithmetic within ten?
"You are finally here. How do you choose?" The next moment, the orc who spoke disappeared on the spot.
The other orcs immediately surrounded Qi Jiayi, seemingly seeking help.
Qi Jiayi discovered that the number of orcs sent up was less than half, and the rest were all those who finished the questions later and sent up.
She looked around. The fourth floor was the same as the third floor. There was no stone staircase entrance, only a stone platform in the middle. "What's going on? Where are the other orcs?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a mermaid appeared uncontrollably in front of the stone platform. He looked up at Qi Jiayi and asked, "How do you choose this?"
It was actually a forced answer.
Qi Jiayi and Xun Li walked a few steps to the stone platform. This time it was different from the simple arithmetic on the three floors, but it was not difficult because there were three paintings on it.
The paintings respectively show mermaids looking harmless in the water.
There are also the appearances of them transforming into humans after coming ashore.
The last picture shows mermaids on the beach. Unlike the gentle looks in the previous two pictures, their fins have turned into sharp claws, and their open mouths are full of sharp teeth, as if they are ready to fight with someone.
There are also three options below the corresponding picture: beast, orc, and monster.
The countdown is still on the upper left corner of the stone platform.
Qi Jiayi and Xunli looked at each other and understood why there were so few orcs.
The Snow Dog leaned forward and said, "Aren't they all mermaids? How do we choose?"
Yes, these mermaids can be in mermaid form, that is, beastmen, and in fish tail form, that is, orcs, but they have never seen the last type.
But this is the demon world, should we choose the last option?
"What to choose?" The mermaid standing in front of the stone platform looked at Qi Jiayi anxiously.
No mermaid had ever passed the second level before, but now they have all reached the fourth level. This is all thanks to Qi Jiayi, so he trusts her very much.
Qi Jiayi shook his head: "Sorry, I don't know either."
The Snow Dog said directly: "Choose the first one, and then let the others choose the second and third one in turn, and see which one is correct."
Since this Sky Demon Tower doesn’t harm orcs, we can use the method of elimination.
"Then let's give it a try." Qi Jiayi thought it was feasible. She was now increasingly confused about the purpose of the sacrifice in the Heavenly Demon Tower.
It's like a joke.
The mermaid believed them and chose it obediently.
The one who chose the beast disappeared in the tower the next moment, and the one who chose the beast also disappeared in the tower.
Until the third option.
Yuan walked up to the stone platform and chose the 'demon' option.
But he did not disappear, nor did he open the entrance to the fifth floor.
Instead, his body began to undergo drastic changes, and actually mutated into the appearance in the portrait.
"What the hell?" the Snow Dog exclaimed.
Just when Qi Jiayi and the others thought there was going to be a fierce battle, a bolt of lightning struck from the top of the fourth floor, heading straight for the mutated mermaid.
Qi Jiayi almost subconsciously swung out the magic rope, tied up the alienated Yuan and pulled him away, and the lightning struck nothing.
Leaving a large charred hole on the ground.
Seeing Lei, all the other orcs were frightened and revealed their true forms, shaking with fear.
Even the alienated abyss is like this.
Because the lightning did not hit the mutated mermaid, another bolt of lightning struck overhead.
Qi Jiayi was experienced in dodging lightning, and he once again pulled the mutated mermaid away, but this was not a solution.
Suddenly, a Stone Barbarian held something up and raised it above them.
As the lightning struck, a familiar light green shield opened up to block the lightning.
"Uncle." The Snow Dog was stunned.
Xunli took out a piece of talisman paper, quickly drew a talisman, and stuck it on the forehead of the mutated mermaid with his backhand.
"Don't let him tear off the talisman."
After Xun Li finished speaking, Qi Jiayi controlled the magic rope to tie Yuan tightly.
Lei, who had already reached halfway, seemed to have suddenly lost his target and retreated.
Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief.
Qi Jiayi looked at the black iron turtle in the hands of the Stone Barbarians.
The Stone Barbarian held the Black Iron Turtle in his arms and said proudly, "Divine Stone."
Qi Jiayi didn't have time to argue with him about the Black Iron Turtle, so he came to the stone platform again.
Looking at the three options, "If you choose a demon, you should be erased."
The Snow Spirit Dog looked at Yuan, who was tied up like a dumpling, and said, "Didn't they say that the Heavenly Demon Tower doesn't kill people?"
"All three options are wrong. Is there no fifth floor?" Qi Jiayi said, thinking that more than half of the orcs who came in earlier had left, and said, "Speaking of which, with so many orcs coming up earlier, no one chose the monster?"
"This monster looks scary at first glance. They probably didn't think they looked like one, so they didn't choose it." The Snow Spirit Dog was also horrified when he saw the monster's appearance when it was the bird tribe's turn.
The stone platform on the fourth floor was used to answer questions in the order in which they came in. Qi Jiayi and Xunli were the last, and they saw the forms of the four tribes of orcs' monsters.
With the transformation of the Mermaid Yuan, no one dared to choose a monster. After all, the monsterized appearances of the four tribes were all terrifying and ugly.
It was safe to choose "beast" or "orc".
"Tell him to put Xiaojiu down."
When it was the last Stone Barbarian's turn, the Snow Spirit Dog said hurriedly.
The one who just took out the black iron turtle was this Stone Barbarian.
The Stone Barbarian was about to step onto the stone platform, but was blocked by the Snow Spirit Dog. He was a little puzzled.
"The divine stone in your hand is my contracted beast. Can I exchange it with you for my magic weapon?"
Qi Jiayi took out the magic weapon on his body and showed him the same shield effect as the Black Iron Turtle.
The Stone Barbarians were unmoved and didn't take the magic weapon in her hand seriously at all.
When he was forcibly dragged to the stone platform to do the questions, he quickly clicked on "Beast" and left the Heavenly Demon Tower.
"Hey, him."
And next is the Snow Dog.
When he stepped onto the stone platform, there were still three options for form.
"It's not accurate. I will definitely transform into a human form in the future. How could I be half-human, half-beast? And this doesn't look like me."
Complaints aside, how to choose is still a problem. I looked at Qi Jiayi and asked, "What should I choose?"
Qi Jiayi looked at Xunli and pointed at the talisman on the merman's forehead and said, "Senior sister, draw a few more of that kind of talisman."
"Okay." Xunli drew several pictures with his pen.
Qi Jiayi held the sword and waved at the Snow Spirit Dog: "Move over there."
Glancing at the countdown on the stone platform, she began to pry the word "beast" on the orc option.
Seeing what she was going to do, the Snow Dog's eyes lit up: "Good idea."
If there are no options, they create them.
"Hurry up, we're running out of time."
The Snow Dog urged, looking at the countdown in the upper left corner.
At the last moment, Qi Jiayi pried off the word "beast".
The three options became "beast", "human" and "monster".
The original orc pattern had actually changed. The half-beast form disappeared and turned into a human.
Qi Jiayi: “Press.”
Snow Dog pressed 'human' without hesitation.
Qi Jiayi held the sword and watched the Snow Spirit Dog, while keeping an eye on the sky.
The sound of the stone door rubbing against each other was heard.
Four stone stairs appeared.
Snow Dog: "That's great."
"Be careful." Qi Jiayi looked at the stone stairs. He couldn't see clearly above, it was pitch black.
The Snow Spirit Dog stepped onto the stone steps carefully and was not struck by lightning. However, he did not transform into a human either. Instead, his body became two sizes larger.
"It's safe. I'll go up first. You two hurry up." After taking two steps, he stopped and shouted, "Find a way to bring Yuan up with you."
Xunli picked up the tied merman and said, "Try it."
Qi Jiayi had the same intention, so he placed the alienated Yuan in front of the stone platform, and took his hand with long nails and placed it on the "person".
Unlike the Snow Dog, when the mermaid pressed the button, a flash of light passed through his body and the alienated mermaid returned to normal. The changes continued, and the dark green scales faded away, and his skin became slightly light green, but smoother. The fins behind his ears also faded away, and his fingers became five fingers.
Another thing that changed was his height. Originally, he was taller than Xunli, but after the mermaid features on his body faded, he was only half a head taller than Qi Jiayi.
He became a completely different person.
Because of the transformation, the fish scales on his body, the shells he wore, etc. disappeared, and Yuan was left naked without any clothes.
Xunli covered Qi Jiayi's eyes with his hands and threw a piece of clothing to Yuan: "Put it on."
Yuan was still a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly put on his clothes, "Why did I become like this?"
There were no hard fish scales, and he seemed to have become much shorter. The strength of his hands also became weaker. He felt a little scared for no reason.
"Do you want to be a mermaid or a human?" Qi Jiayi glanced at the stone platform. After the person in front of her finished making her choice, there was a gap. She and Xun Li used that gap to turn the mermaid into a human.
But looking at him, he seems not to be used to being a human being at all.
Quickly recount the process.
Qi Jiayi pressed her button at the last minute and looked at Yuan: "Have you made up your mind?"
"I want to be a mermaid again." Yuan said firmly.
If he were like Qi Jiayi, thin and short, with weak hands and feet, he would not only be unable to swim in the water, but also unable to return home.
He doesn't want to be a human being.
Qi Jiayi got off the stone platform and immediately asked the merman to stand on it again. He pointed at the 'beast' and said, "Press that, quickly."
In an instant, Yuan returned to his appearance in the mermaid sea, and disappeared on the spot the next moment.
Fifth floor.
From the outside, the Heavenly Demon Tower has only five floors.
From what the orcs said, they had only reached the fourth floor at most, and when seeing the mutated mermaids, Qi Jiayi understood the reason.
No matter how many times those orcs enter the Demon Tower, they cannot reach the fifth floor.
When we reached the fifth floor, there was no stone platform anymore.
In the center there is a small square table and two stools facing each other.
There was a jug of wine, two wine glasses, and a letter on the table.
Qi Jiayi walked forward and saw the three words "Yang Qinqi" written on the envelope.
Xueling Dog had seen the letter a long time ago. He also went to the fifth floor. Apart from the table and two chairs, there was nothing else there. "Who is Yang?"
Qi Jiayi reached out and picked up the letter: "Chief of the Bird Tribe."
