After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 242: The wolf girl who "wins by lying down" (please vote for me at the beginning of the month~)

Starlight and shadow intertwined into a picture.

Ryan looked at the girl in front of him in trance, looking at the dark blue ring lying quietly on her palm.

The tiny particles of light dance like fireflies, and turbulent emotions flow through my heart.

Ryan didn't speak, just stretched out his hand, but before his finger touched the ring, a soft jade hand stretched out from the side and gently grasped the edge of his palm.

Ryan blinked and looked at Miss Witch who reached out to hold him.

Facing his gaze, Freni's eyes were a little erratic, and there was a faint blush on her earlobes, but soon she raised her head and looked directly at Ryan, with a slight smile on her lips:

"Mr. Lane, let me put it on for you."

The witch lady did not speak in a questioning tone, but in an affirmative tone, which was quite domineering.

Ryan had a smile on his face. Freni was also very cute like this.

With the demise of the "Sky Carrier" and the repair of Freni's body, the assessment of the Holy Tree, or to be precise, the assessment of this assessment world, has also come to an end.

Intense emerald green light emerged from around the two people, turning their bodies, starting from their feet, into tiny particles of light.

And, never break your oath!

Before opening his eyes and looking around, Ryan felt the warmth in his palms, and his heart felt at peace.

Ryan stared blankly at the girl in front of him.

He opened his eyes and saw the tall witch girl standing beside him, who also looked at him at the same time.

Even at the true god level, it is absolutely impossible to achieve this level.

What kind of power is it that can control time like this?

Freni bit her plump lips and put the dark blue ring on Ryan's middle finger.

"What kind of secrets does the Sea of ​​Ashes contain..."

After a long time to calm down the turbulent emotions in her heart, Freni turned her attention to the projection.

Lifting Ryan's hand gently, Freni carefully placed the dark blue ring on the tip of Ryan's right middle finger. She paused and looked at Ryan intently.

No, it doesn't necessarily mean manipulating time, it could also be simply accelerating the thinking of an individual.

"Ryan Knight~"

What responded to her was Ryan's gentle eyes.

He is not stupid and naturally knows what it means when a girl puts a ring on the middle finger of a boy.

Not to mention, the last paragraph of the explanation on the [Dark Moon Ring] on the panel has clearly shown the other party's intentions.

"Holy tree..."

Compared with the mature charm of the assessment world, Freni at this moment looks too young, and it seems that she has not experienced a hundred years like the assessment world.

Looking at the small gray sapling in front of him, Ryan's eyes became serious.

And this also caused an unparalleled shock in her heart.

In the center of the platform, a small gray tree stood quietly.

Freni, who was standing next to Ryan, also saw the small gray tree at this moment, but what concerned Freni more than it was the shadow cast in front of her.

Ryan speculated in his mind, and then took stock of the surrounding situation.

On this night and in the land of stars, a contract was made for the future.

But no matter which one it is, it is an incredible thing.

"Please give me your advice, my captain."

"Isn't the time in the assessment world and the time in the real world outside synchronized?"

Ryan stretched out his hand and grasped Miss Witch's soft flesh.

After doing this, Miss Witch did not withdraw her soft and jade-like hands, but instead held Ryan's right palm and said, "Please give me more advice in the future."

This is the place where Ryan previously chose to test the world.

What you see is no longer a starry sky, but a broad wooden platform.

[Moon Wolf Princess Cecilia - Current assessment world: Back of the Tree·Dark Necropolis, assessor status: Slightly injured. (Those who are not [travelers] cannot enter the assessment world)]

The world in front of me turned dark, and after a few seconds, it returned to light.

For a moment, she couldn't tell the difference between reality and fiction.

Ryan's heart felt heavy.

Hundreds of years have passed like water, and although she has not left the slightest trace on her body, the countless memories and knowledge that remain in her soul are all so real.

After experiencing Freyne's trial world, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that the reason for the encounter between the three of them was very likely to come from the small gray tree in front of him.

Freni's eyes were a little dazed.

The beauties are picturesque and beautiful.

Now, looking at the "assessment" clearly presented in front of her, she finally determined that the hundred years she had experienced were not real.

"Those who are not traveling with us cannot enter the assessment world."

She frowned slightly, and soon she realized something and looked at Ryan next to her: "Mr. Ryan, you are a traveler, right?"

Ryan nodded.

"I was here before, entering your assessment world through this small gray tree."

"According to the prompts given here, only the three of us who pass the test at the same time can go to a place called [Tree King Sanctuary]."

"If you want to leave here, for now, there is no other way but to follow the prompts step by step."

Ryan glanced at the endless dark abyss under the wooden platform. Even though he was now promoted to the fifth level of legend, and his combat power had surged to surpass that of a senior demigod, he still felt the deep danger when staring at the abyss.

"In addition, when I entered your assessment world before, Cecilia's status was still healthy, but now it has become a minor injury."

"It seems that I still need to go inside and take a look."

"...Be careful." Freni said softly.

Freni was happy to see Cecilia in the assessment world, because it meant that Cecilia's current situation was not critical.

But on the other hand, she was worried about Cecilia and Ryan who was about to get into it.

It was precisely because she knew the entire process of her trial that Freni understood the dangers involved.

Even though Mr. Lane is powerful, in this mysterious place, a demigod is really nothing. At least, he cannot escape the prison of the rules here.

"rest assured."

"Captain, you wait here, I will bring Cecilia back safely as soon as possible."

Seeing each other again after a long separation and about to say goodbye soon are undoubtedly hard to let go.

But Ryan also knew that there was nothing that could be done about it.

It can be seen from the change in status that Cecilia's situation may not be too optimistic, otherwise there would not be a deterioration in status.

If Cecilia is allowed to conduct the trial alone, the probability of passing may not be high.

If not, there is no need to come up with the identity of a [traveler].

Just look at Freni and you will know that if he had not intervened, the final result would have been completely different - Diana of the Sky would have destroyed Freni's body under the holy tree first. At that time, the trial would have completely failed. day.

Although the result of failing the trial was not stated clearly, Ryan knew very well that there was only one, and that was death.

"Everything, be very careful."

The voice of Miss Witch behind him made Ryan smile. He waved his hand, and then lightly touched the small gray tree in front of him.

The next moment, the rich gray light completely overwhelmed Ryan's vision.

On the wooden platform, looking at the disappearing Ryan and the small gray tree standing quietly in the center of the platform, which seemed to have not changed for millions of years, Freni took a deep breath.

She hated herself for being weak. In the assessment world, she has come a long way on the path of runes. Although she is now out of the assessment world and no longer the controller of the Holy Tree, those knowledge and experiences have not disappeared, but have settled deep in her soul. She only needs to dig them out again. , this weak body will soon be able to adapt again.

At the same time, the analysis of "empty" and hundreds of years of exploration also allowed Freni to find a way to break through the legend.

As for whether it is feasible, we still need to try it before we can know.

During the period when Mr. Lane enters Cecilia's assessment world, she must improve her strength as much as possible.

She really didn't want to endure this feeling of powerlessness anymore.

……

The gray light faded before my eyes.

Ryan's feet went from floating to having a real sense of stepping on them.

He didn't have time to look around.

A violent sound of breaking through the air came from in front of him, and faster than the sound was the sharply enlarged tip of the black tail in Ryan's pupils.

"Pfft!"

The black tail tip penetrated the shadow of Ryan's head, and Ryan's true body had already arrived beside the owner of the tail tip.

Looking at the "big guy" in front of him, Ryan's eyes showed interest.

This is a "big rat" with a very strange shape.

Judging from the overall appearance, it is no different from a mouse, except that its size is enlarged hundreds of times, and the tail behind it has barbs growing out, and the tip of the tail has transformed into a shape similar to the head of a gun.

After observing for a while, Ryan, who found nothing else, raised his finger and lightly tapped the side of the gun-tailed rat's head.

"Thorn..."

After a slight sound, the light in the gun-tailed rat's eyes completely dimmed, and its entire body fell limply to the ground.

Under Ryan's gaze, strands of black energy rose from the gun-tailed rat's body, rising all the way up, and finally merged into a blood moon hanging high in the dark night sky.

Ryan raised his head and squinted at the blood moon.

"Is this the 'Back of the Tree: Dark Cemetery'..."

"What is its relationship with the capital of the Kingdom of Trees?"

Ryan's mind was filled with thoughts, and then he looked around.

Because of the attack of the gun-tailed rat, he didn't have time to observe his surroundings.

What appeared in front of him was endless black.

The desolate and lonely Gobi Desert is covered with a light mist. After more than a hundred meters, the mist becomes extremely thick.

Under the illumination of the blood moon, the mist takes on a light red color, giving people a strong sense of foreboding.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Ryan's body surged with spirituality, and then, his whole body exploded like a rocket.

Ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters...

The distance from the ground is getting higher and higher, but visually, the distance to the blood moon is not close at all.

Not only that, Ryan could feel that his body had become extremely heavy, and even the surge of spirituality had become sluggish.

The further up you go, the more serious this situation becomes.

"Are you not allowed to fly high..."

After realizing this, Ryan stopped rising and stood in mid-air to observe.

At this height, the masking effect of the fog was reduced a lot, and Ryan vaguely saw a majestic building complex in the far north.

"Will it be there?"

Ryan returned to the ground and headed north.

Since there are no other clues, we can only go there and take a look first.

Ryan did not choose to fly, but walked step by step.

Although Legend can fly, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy and cannot maintain a long-term consumption balance. At the end of the flight, not only will it be forced to land due to insufficient spiritual energy, but if it encounters a strong enemy, it will put itself in danger.

Therefore, no legend on the sea would choose to fly across the sea.

It's the same thing now.

Although Ryan thinks that he is not weak now, there is always no harm in keeping a low profile in this unknown land.

The road ahead was deserted and silent.

Not even the attacking monsters.

This made Ryan wonder how lucky he was to be attacked just after arriving in the assessment world.

It wasn't that there were no monster attacks that made him feel uncomfortable, it was mainly the black gas coming out of the gun-tailed rat's body that made him very concerned.

The kingdom of trees is invaded by "empties", so it is unlikely that the back of the tree will be peaceful and peaceful, right?

There was no attack, and Ryan was happy and at ease.

The fog quickly passed by on both sides, and after a while, Ryan finally arrived in front of the building complex.

Without the cover of fog, this time, he finally saw the whole place clearly.

Different from the magnificent building complex in his imagination, what appeared in front of Ryan's eyes could not be said to be a building, but extremely thick stone pillars.

The radius of each root is a hundred meters away, and it looks spectacular from a distance.

These stone pillars are high or low. The one at the front is obviously the lowest. From the back, they rise one by one. The higher the height, the larger the radius.

A bit like a primitive and rough staircase to the sky?

With curiosity, Ryan came to the first stone pillar, his body burst into the air, and soon he came to the first stone pillar.

The light of the blood moon flows on the stone surface. A stone tablet stands not far from Ryan, and in the center of the platform in the distance, there is a prostrate black shadow.

Instead of approaching the shadow rashly, Ryan came to the stone monument and looked up.

Lines of text were presented in a way that he could understand.

-

【Pillar of Death】

[There are nine pillars in total, and only those who cross the nine pillars are qualified to meet the 'Lord of the Dead Moon'. 】

[After the challenger climbs the pillar and fails the challenge, he will not really die, but will lose part of his origin and strength. He will be reborn as a "wandering soul" somewhere in the necropolis. A creature bearing the "mark of the wandering soul", After defeating other wandering souls, you can plunder their origin and power, restore yourself, and become stronger. 】

[Only the fireworks blooming in death are the most dazzling. 】

[O strong man, climb up the steps of the Pillar of Death. The 'Lord of the Death Moon' will look at you and me equally. 】

-

Looking at the contents on the stone tablet, a strange look appeared in Ryan's eyes.

Compared with the complicated situation in the Kingdom of Trees, Cecilia's assessment world seems much simpler and more straightforward.

Although I don’t know where Cecilia is now, as long as she crosses the nine-story Pillar of Death and defeats the “Lord of the Death Moon”, even if Cecilia is not around the whole time, she must have completed the assessment, right?
Whether this is the case or not, you will know after you try it.

Ryan turned his head and looked at the huge black figure lying on the ground in the center of the platform.

Even if it is lying on the ground, it is still nearly ten meters high.

Such a body shape and the faint feeling of oppression are really...

It’s hard not to be excited for a hunter!
Ryan grinned, stretched his muscles, then raised his hand to grasp the hilt of the sword behind him, and strode away in the direction of the black shadow.
