Chapter 529: Side effects of black food?

Ok?
The sudden cessation of the voice in Alontan's mind made Luo Jun realize that something was wrong. He immediately tried to contact him, but found that their telepathy seemed to have been cut off.

Looking at Elontan himself, he was standing in front of the dining table, his eyes dull and motionless. The blissful clown on the castle was looking at him with a smile on his face. It was not a painted smile, his mouth was indeed raised under the red paint.

what happened?

After careful investigation, Luo Jun finally discovered that the connection between the two was not cut off, but that Ailontan's brain was blank, as if the computer had crashed.

The reason for all this was that his body was invaded by something...

Luo Jun didn't know what it was exactly, but he could feel that the more than 80,000 breaths of energy he left in Ailontan's body were now busy fighting against this foreign force.

The competition between the two sides was extremely fierce. Luo Jun's vitality was being consumed at a very high rate. This was because his energy level was high enough. If it were an ordinary practitioner, he would probably not be able to hold on for even a minute and would have collapsed completely.

Is it because of the chicken wings?

Luo Jun frowned. Although his energy could still hold on for the time being, Alontan's brain had basically stopped functioning. In this situation, he simply started to remotely control him using the same method he used last time when Alontan was anesthetized.

Elontan stood there for a while, then suddenly shook his head and fanned his mouth: "My goodness, this thing is too greasy. It took me a long time to recover."

"You...recovered?"

Seeing that "Luo Jun" had regained consciousness, the Ji Le clown on the balcony seemed a little surprised.

"Yes." Luo Jun noticed the other party's subtle attitude and pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"Oh..." The Blissful Clown looked at Luo Jun and said, "I forgot to ask you before, have you ever eaten food from the black shop?"

Luo Jun was slightly stunned, and remembered what Zhuge Qian mentioned in his diary, regretting eating food from the black shop...

"I haven't eaten it before. Is there any problem?" Luo Jun asked back.

When asking this question, he secretly rolled the dice.

"Get the real answer!"

Two pairs of dice, one pair has 7 points, the other pair has 91 points...

Luo Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and chose the latter.

"Ding, the event difficulty is 96 points, the final point is 91+5 points, the event is successful."

Is it so difficult?
“No…” The Blissful Clown laughed, “It just occurred to me that there was a precedent where challengers who had eaten food from a black store would experience adverse reactions during the food challenge, and in serious cases, they might even die… I saw you stunned just now, and I thought that was the reason.”

The clown's explanation was quite reasonable, but Luo Jun clearly felt that when he spoke this time, he was less crazy and exaggerated, and much more serious than before... Could it be because he felt guilty?
Thinking of this, Luo Jun continued to ask: "Then can I ask, has anyone had adverse reactions before, and what was the final outcome?"

"Not many people can come here. The one that left a deep impression on me was a group of four people led by an old man. One of them was a young man with red hair. He had eaten the food from the black shop and reacted to the food here. After struggling for a while, he died with blood coming out of all his orifices..."

It’s Chen Jin!
Red hair is the characteristic of the Chen family, and the four people led by the old man should be Chen Jin!
So Chen Jin died here? Then, Zhuge Qian's diary mentioned that he couldn't eat the food in the black shop because it conflicted with the challenge on the second floor of the rest area. If he couldn't complete the challenge, he wouldn't be able to get the key props to pass the level?
"Since you haven't eaten it, don't worry about it. Continue the challenge." The Blissful Clown urged: "You only have twenty minutes left."

Luo Jun nodded and walked towards the next plate of food while calculating in his mind.

So, the clues mentioned in the diary about how to pass the level are the mysterious items on the second floor? And the reason they failed is because they ate the food from the black shop...

However, the result of the dice roll and the hint from the relic told Luo Jun that he couldn't eat the chicken wings. This was indeed the case. After the chicken wings were eaten, Alontan's mind fell silent, and the vitality in his body continued to resist and consume. This seemed to contradict the conditions for passing the level...

Luo Jun was muttering to himself as he controlled Alontan and unveiled the eighth plate.

Inside is a pried open shell, which contains thick and tender shell meat, and you can also see translucent juice.

Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, followed by stinky and fragrant... Although spicy, fragrant and stinky are not specific tastes, it is obvious that the delicacies in this challenge can simulate the corresponding mental stimulation in a special way... Then what could this shell be?

Luo Jun remembered the most superb taste of the dish.

fresh!
The most prominent feature of seafood is its umami taste. What does the ultimate umami taste feel like? Pour a bag of MSG into your mouth?
Luo Jun has never tried it and can't imagine what it tastes like.

He controlled Ailontan to pick up the shell, gritted his teeth, put it to his mouth and sucked it, sucking the shell meat and juice into his mouth, and then prepared to accept the baptism of explosive taste!

Ok?
However, Ailontan chewed for a long time, and Luo Jun didn't feel anything until he swallowed it...

Yes, the one who was eating was Ailontan, what does it have to do with me, Luo Jun?
Elontan is now unconscious, so any stimulation is useless. Does that mean the next two dishes can be easily passed?

Although he didn't feel anything, Luo Jun still pretended that it was hard to swallow and opened two plates of food.

The ninth dish was a small dried fish. As soon as the lid was opened, a strong fishy smell could be smelled, but I felt nothing when I ate it. The last dish was a small cup of light yellow liquid. I didn’t know what it was, but I drank it all in one gulp and passed the test successfully.

Of course, while eating these dishes, Luo Jun not only manipulated Alontan to act, but also did not forget to carefully observe his physical and mental state.

Just as he guessed, except for the chicken wing, Elontan's body did not react to eating other things. This thing should act directly on the mind. But Elontan's mind did not seem to react at all, as if he did not receive any stimulation at all.

Are the dishes after the chicken wings just for show?

No, Luo Jun could smell the fishy smell of the dried fish, but Ailontan had no reaction at all. It was not a question of the strength of the stimulation at all.

After thinking about it, Luo Jun came to the conclusion that although the taste of this food was a kind of mental attack, it had to be received through the senses. However, this perception was not the five senses in the usual sense, but more like the sensitivity of the spirit... such as the perception of vitality!
In other words, the stronger the perception, the stronger the stimulation received, and the stronger the spirit, the stronger the stimulation can be withstood.

This also solved Luo Jun's previous doubts.

Although his mental attributes are extremely strong, his perception attributes are not much inferior. In other words, the stimulation he receives is thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary people, not to mention the additional bonus brought by his perception exceeding 100... Even with a mental strength thousands of times stronger, he can barely endure it.

For the first time, Luo Jun felt that having attributes that were too high was a burden.

Anyway, now the fourth level has been passed, and the treasure that can be teleported to the exit has been obtained. Theoretically, Luo Jun now has a great chance of passing the level. After all, he already has the exit indicator. If he teleports to within 30 kilometers of the exit, opens the map, destroys a few walls when necessary, and gets to the exit within an hour, it shouldn't be a problem.

But this is based on the premise that the exit will not suddenly fly away.

So the last level still has to be passed.

"Very exciting!" The Clown of Bliss couldn't help but applaud. "Not many people can make it to this level. You have almost got the key to pass the endless maze, but I still want to ask you a question."

"Do you want to stop here and take the four treasures you have already obtained? Or do you want to continue with the final challenge?"

"Is there any need to ask that?" Luo Jun said with a smile, "Of course I will continue, but I have eaten so much dirty stuff, I still need to take a break."

"Please help yourself." The Clown of Bliss made a gesture of invitation: "You can come up and challenge me anytime while the hotel is still in operation."

"Similarly, if you have other companions who want to challenge, you can also come up to me. I can help them arrange the venue for the challenge ahead, and it will not interfere with your progress."

"Thank you very much." Luo Jun controlled Alontan to bow to the Elysian Clown, then turned and left and walked into the elevator.

Up to now, one third of the energy in Ailontan's body has been consumed, but there is still no sign of stopping. Luo Jun still can't figure out what this energy is fighting against.

Of course, as a summoned creature, Luo Jun could dismiss him and summon him again at any time, so that his status would be refreshed. But he wanted to find out what was wrong with the chicken wing.

While the elevator was descending, Luo Jun put his cloak on Alontan to help him turn invisible. Although Alontan himself had the ability to turn invisible, under Luo Jun's control, Alontan could only do some basic actions, and his ability to concentrate his mind could not be brought into play at all.

After returning to the first floor, Luo Jun immediately called everyone else together.

While he was challenging them, everyone was busy too. They washed themselves, wiped themselves clean, and wore bathrobes, watching movies in the hall while enjoying foot massage.

Looking at their corrupt appearance and thinking about the sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty food he had just eaten, Luo Jun became furious.

"You passed? What took you so long?" Ma Qiao came over, rubbing his hands. "Did you get the three thousand dollars? Come on, it's time for us to change people up."

Luo Jun spread his hands and said, "Sorry, I haven't received the money yet."

"No way?!" Ma Qiao widened his eyes and shouted, "You didn't even make it through the first level?"

"What are you yelling about!" Sun Xiaowei stood in front of Luo Jun and said, "Even if we didn't pass, so what? Have you forgotten how our junior classmates took care of us along the way?"

"I didn't mean to yell at him, I just got scared." Ma Qiao scratched his head and apologized.

"If you don't pass, then you don't pass." Mao Xintong said, "Anyway, Xiao Luo's badge can be redeemed for 3,000 after midnight, and we can send someone to challenge."

Everyone else sighed, only Old Yuan looked at Luo Jun with a smile. He didn't believe that his beloved disciple would not be able to pass even the first level.

Unable to bear being stared at by his master, Luo Jun could only smile and say, "No, I have already passed the fourth level, but it is not over yet, so I haven't claimed the prize yet. I just came down to take a rest."

"The fourth level?!" Everyone was surprised and asked, "Doesn't that mean we have already got the teleporter? Don't challenge the fifth level, just get the thing first!"

"What's the use of just a teleporter?" Luo Jun shook his head: "If the exit is in chaos, it's useless for us to teleport nearby... So I have applied for the fifth level, and I will go up after a rest."

"Ah?" Ma Qiao said with a bitter face: "Xiao Luo, you are confused. The fifth level is a combat level. Your realm is too low and your experience is not enough. It is better to get the money first and let someone who is better at combat challenge you."

"Don't worry, I know what to do." Luo Jun waved his hand and said, "I came down here not only to take a rest, but also to tell you about the challenges of the first few levels..."

Luo Jun shared his experience and gave a brief description of the intensity of the first few levels, with the focus on the fourth level.

"Do you remember the tip to stay away from flying things?" Luo Jun said, "There was a chicken wing among the ten dishes. I didn't dare to eat it, but secretly changed it to a summoned creature to eat. The end result... the summoned creature was destroyed."

"Poisonous?" others asked in surprise.

"I don't know either." Luo Jun shrugged his shoulders. "So if other people go up, I don't have any countermeasures. I don't recommend challenging the fourth level. Just take the things from the first three levels."

“But if you only pass the first three levels, you won’t get the important props.” Sun Xiaowei said.

"You can't risk your life." Luo Jun thought to himself, if I eat it, the severity coefficient will be level six. With your small bodies, you will die immediately, right?

"This is the situation. You guys discuss a solution on the first floor. I'm almost done resting. I have to go upstairs to challenge the last level."

"The last level will definitely be difficult." Zhuge Zi said, "Do it according to your ability. If you can't do it, just admit defeat."

Luo Jun nodded: "Don't worry!"

Back on the second floor, Luo Jun stood in front of the castle: "Come on, let's start the last level."

The Clown of Bliss looked down at him and said, "Are you rested so soon?"

"I have to remind you that the fifth level is the most difficult. The opponent you will face may be beyond your imagination."

Luo Jun smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, I'm ready to win."

"Very good." The Joker opened his hands, grinned and shouted, "I declare that the final challenge begins!"

As he clapped his hands, a circle of fences suddenly rose up within a radius of fifty meters around Luo Jun, and then a transparent barrier rose along the fence and closed above his head, forming a hemispherical enclosed arena.

Opposite Luo Jun, the ground cracked and a platform slowly rose, on which stood a young man with red hair.

Seeing this person, Luo Jun narrowed his eyes slightly and asked with a hint of doubt:

"Chen...Jin?"
