Honkai Impact 3, there is a big problem with my system

Qiluo did not respond to the "girl's" familiarity, her thoughts were all on the so-called "Tower Sage". After all, if what the other party said was true, then they would not have to search aimlessly.

Moreover, if the city's spatial protection was created by a "sage", with such advanced technology, it would surely be helpful for our mission, so it is worth going.

She turned around and said, "Ort, let's go there."

Xia Mu didn't realize for a moment that Qiluo was calling him, but he was mostly confused.

Is the Sage of the Tower here?

Isn't that guy the future "Alien Stigma"? Could it be that he just appeared now? ?

Chapter 112 Tower Trial: Labyrinth

But he thought again and thought that shouldn't be the case.

No matter how broken the plot is, the appearance of the "Alien Stigmata" is only possible at the end, after Kevin's "Stigmata Plan" is completed.

Moreover, the legend of the "Tower Sage" has been circulating in this world for a long time, so it should be an "agent" after all~

Xia Mu glanced at Vita speechlessly.

You said you could just tell us the location of the queen, what's the point of all this? If we get rid of the queen, you won't have to worry about Honkai beasts attacking the holy city anymore, right?

Be a good agent and reap your profits. We will not interfere with each other. As for your little tricks, there will be rich ladies, elves, three-and-a-half-year-old children or something like that to help you out in the future... probably...

Xia Mu scratched his head in frustration, "Um....Sage, do you really know everything?"

Vita nodded solemnly, "Sage, you know everything. If she hadn't refused, the residents of the Holy City would have built a statue for her. To us, she would be a 'god'."

She then smiled mischievously, "But there are so many people who want to see the Sage, including everyone in the Holy City, and many people come here for pilgrimage every year."

"So the wise man set up three trials. Only those who pass all of them can climb the tower."

Xia Mu's mouth twitched unnaturally. "Stop playing, big sister. Are you tired?"

But it was obvious that Vita was very interested in this matter, and her jewel-like red eyes were sparkling.

"It has been more than half a year since the last trial and no one is willing to challenge it. Maybe new apostles will appear today. After all, you are very powerful!"

Having said that, she couldn't wait to pull Qi Luo up and trot towards the tower.

Xia Mu: “…”

I have a bad feeling. This guy looks like he's waiting for someone to play some big challenge.

Although he didn't want to have too much contact, it was likely that he could only quickly determine the queen's location through this person, so he could only play with her.

......

Huge salt pillars penetrate the earth and reach the sky.

Yes, this is the tower, which is made of a block of light salt whose volume is difficult to estimate. On top of it, a tall circular tower is built against the "mountain", which is magnificent and spectacular.

But now there is a problem. Although Xia Mu and his friends seem to be very far away from the tower, they cannot move forward any further because under the tower there is a complicated maze of high walls with no end in sight.

"Welcome to the "Salt and Snow Holy City" trial. This is the first level: "Wisdom"!"

Vita introduced with a full smile, "Only by passing the test of 'wisdom' can you be qualified to meet the 'Sage of the Tower'."

Qi Luo looked at the huge maze, and resolutely put her hands on her hips, "As an idol, you always have wisdom that ordinary people can't reach. This level is a piece of cake."

She looked confident, "Follow me closely, I'm the best at solving puzzles like this!"

After saying that, Shigure Qiluo... stepped on the high wall and ran straight up at 90 degrees!

No problem, in a maze or something, as long as you stand high you can see far. No, no, just jump over it and it's done~

"Eh? Wait, be careful...!"

Before Vita could finish her words, Qiluo rushed forward and hit the 'ceiling' with a very loud thud, and it was obvious that her crown had sustained a critical hit!

"You can't cheat in this maze..."

Vita wanted to laugh, but she held it back. "Those who participate in the trial must advance from the ground. What is tested is "wisdom." "

Qiluo rolled on the ground holding her head in pain. She wanted to cry, but she held it back. The image of an idol cannot be destroyed!

"Why didn't you say so earlier..."

She looked up at the empty clear sky above, "Damn it, they're using advanced space technology in a place like this~!"

When Vita heard Qiluo's complaint, she scratched her head apologetically, "Um... you went upstairs before I even started talking..."

Xia Mu chuckled, and then stopped when someone looked at him with murderous eyes... After all, he had to save some face for his idol~

Next, he pondered for a moment, then decisively swung "Skywalker" to cut a big hole in the high wall.

"Moving forward on the ground, that's all."

Just chop all the way through, no problem at all, just move forward in a straight line!

Vita paused, she didn't expect that someone would dare to disrupt her, no, disrupt the rules of the game set by the sage of the tower, the corners of her eyes twitched violently.

Xia Mu said that he did not commit any foul at all, he just moved forward from the ground and stepped into the hole in the wall.

But suddenly, he felt a strong sense of crisis and retracted his legs abruptly. The next moment, the damaged hole in the wall in front of him was restored to its original state in the blink of an eye.

Vita put her hands on her hips proudly, "Someone has used a similar method before, but the Sage is omnipotent, so cheating won't work at all!"

Xia Mu: “…”

You are cheating, how can there be a high wall that can automatically recover? Are you playing magic?!

He was depressed for a while, then looked at Vita, "The rule is that you can't jump over from a high place, and you can't destroy the wall, right?"

Vita nodded. "Yes, as long as you explore the maze from the ground level."

Xia Mu stepped on the hard rock ground and said, "Vita, we have already agreed that we can't add any more rules!"

Qiluo was puzzled. Why did it feel like the Crown Prince of Mercury... seemed to be discussing something with the enthusiastic girl from the holy city?

Vita crossed her arms and said, "Don't worry, these are the only two rules. The sage will keep his word."

Xia Mu said he understood, took out a paper talisman and stuck it on Qiluo's shoulder, pointing at the high wall, "Okay, now close your eyes and rush forward. Believe that the wall does not exist."

"what?"

Shigure Kirara was stunned, "Are you sick? That's granite!"

Xia Mu didn't bother to say anything more to her. He quickly dodged and kicked the little butt. Qi Luo flew straight towards the high wall... but passed through it in a flash!

Vita: (⊙-⊙)! ?

What's happening here? !

She didn't experience any spatial fluctuations, but the other party passed through in such a strange way, which puzzled her.

Three seconds later, Qiluo's head popped out from the high wall. Yes, it was as if she had penetrated the matter and came out from the wall like a ghost.

"Hiss~ Is this Mercury technology!?"

She was originally quite angry, after all, she was kicked, but now she was as curious as a child, passing through the high wall~

Xia Mu nodded, "It seems that it should be fine."

This time he used the "Wall-Passing Talisman ★★★ (Blue)", a magical talisman from the fantasy dimension. It can ignore obstacles and pass through. It is a must-have item for home travel, murder and robbery.

As for why Xia Mu didn't put it on first....what if there is danger on the other side~!!

He put the talisman on himself and passed through the wall in a flash, then turned his head and looked at Vita with a smile.

"Remember, sage, you must keep your word!"

Chapter 113: Test : Perseverance

Although the effect of the "Wall-Passing Talisman" only lasts three minutes, the two of them quickly passed through the maze area at a very fast speed and came to the bottom of a huge tower that reached the sky.

It's not that there were no obstacles in this process, such as flowers and plants that grew wildly, and granite walls that could change and move, but none of them could stop Xia Mu and the others from moving forward.

The "wall-penetrating talisman" is something that cannot be explained scientifically. If we have to explain it, it is probably the transfer of one's own material existence to a higher-dimensional phase, and then leaving a projection in three-dimensional space, which is both real and illusory.

Well, the above is what Kirara said, and perhaps more of it is the original words of the ancient Hugus "Brown Sugar" who had a contract with her.

Shi Yu Qiluo watched the paper talisman on her shoulder burn out, reached out and touched the stone pillar in the square in front of the tower, and found that she could not penetrate it. A trace of regret flashed across her little face.

But she quickly cheered up and said with a smile, "Um... Your Highness, Crown Prince Ort, you don't have this good thing yet~"

Qiluo said that this item is a necessary prop for killing and robbing, ah no, for traveling through many worlds, and it is very necessary for a wanderer in the quantum sea.

Xia Mu nodded and took out a "Wall-penetrating Talisman", "One for your gun, I still have five for now."

Please give me more of this kind of good thing~!

Qiluo's smile froze, as if she was discussing with the possessed "Brown Sugar". After a moment, she shook her head helplessly:

"It's too expensive. Yours is just a disposable consumable. My gun is not produced on an assembly line. Every time I make a Hugues, I consume a lot of materials..."

Xia Mu thought for a few seconds and said, "My "magic talisman" is also very rare, and what you get depends entirely on luck. It can pass through walls and hide underground. Maybe in the future it will be able to fly or become invisible... It's the only one of its kind."

He said that this loophole cannot be opened, otherwise how can he do business in the future~!

Xia Mu thought for a moment and said, "Of course, if you buy a large quantity, you can get a proper discount. And we don't necessarily need your gun. Other things can also be exchanged."

To be honest, five-star equipment is indeed very rare. If you insist on getting it, the deal will probably fail, so it’s better not to be too ruthless.

Qiluo fell into deep thought and continued to communicate silently with "Brown Sugar" through her consciousness. She was probably discussing what items in Hugus could be exchanged.

But at this time, someone couldn't stand it anymore. Aren't you here to participate in the "Trial of the Sage"? Why are you talking about business here? Don't I, the Sage of the Tower, have any dignity? ! ?

Then with a loud bang, a huge stone tablet weighing hundreds of tons fell from the sky, with the words -

"Test 2: Perseverance

You must climb ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps to be qualified to meet the sage! ! "

At the same time, the stone door of the tower creaked open, and the orchid flames inside lit up at intervals, rotating and arranging upwards in sequence, leading directly to the top.

Qiluo put away her business thoughts and her face became slightly serious. "Let's go see the sage first and talk about the transaction later."

Xia Mu smacked his lips helplessly. Damn the agent of the King of Venus, he actually ruined my good thing. Why didn’t you just tell us directly?

Sure enough, staying in this world is still too boring. Vita has to find some fun for herself whenever she has nothing to do.

Xia Mu sighed depressedly, but did not rush in. He stroked his chin in thought.

Qiluo was an impatient person, and entered the tower without saying a word, saying that the most important thing now was to see if they could find out where Kong Lu was.

But suddenly, she fell heavily to the ground, and her whole body seemed to be crushed by the huge force, and her little face was distorted.

"....This is...gravity..."

Xia Mu nodded, thinking that he was very wise not to enter immediately. As expected, the trial of the sage, no, Vita’s game was not that simple~!

He looked up at the top of the tower, where there was a huge torch at the end. The spiral staircase of the inner hall led to the open air outside at the top.

"Damn...it's so heavy..."

Qiluo endured an unbearable weight, and retreated little by little under the pressure of gravity, looking like... some kind of unspeakable soft-bodied creature~

Xia Mu thought about it, picked up a stone and threw it over, hitting someone on the forehead, and then rolled far away.

Oh~ Does it only work on living organisms?

He raised his eyebrows, casually raised his hand and threw a "chess piece" into the sky and under his feet, taking a running-starting posture, as if he was ready to make a super charge in the next moment.

"Don't come in... the gravity here is... at least a hundred times stronger!"

Qiluo was a good teammate. Even when she was retreating in a desperate situation, she did not forget to remind her partners.

Xia Mu remained unmoved, took a deep breath - Tiger Slide!

At the same time, a tiny space crack appeared in the sky, and a black shadow caught the chess piece in a flash - it turned around and accelerated~!!

Qiluo was kicked in the face, and the next moment both of them suddenly disappeared.

"Um!!?"

A girl who was observing outside the maze was confused. It took her a while to react and realize what happened. She gritted her teeth in anger.

At the end of the "Perseverance" level, Xia Mu took a deep breath and patted the head of the magic carpet... It should be the head~

"You did a good job this time, so your punishment will be temporarily waived."

That's right, he let his magic carpet fly directly from outside the tower, bringing the "teleportation anchor point" to make a huge time and space transfer before a certain playful agent could react.
