Chapter 77: The Scheming Owl Lord’s Palace!
Online, in the game.
Two groups have been arguing fiercely, but Fang Ze and his team paid no attention to the commotion they caused.
Or, even without them, these people could still argue incessantly.
"How are you, Old Zhang? Did you lose your accessory?"
Zhang Qingyan nodded, then took out a gold ring with a snake head emblem, "The agony of the Chaos Snake Lord, a legendary level ring."
"Two abilities, one passive, one active."
"The passive skill is night vision, the active skill is darkness, but it says here that it needs magic to release, if there’s no magic, you have to use soul lifespan to release."
Ye Qiu walked over, "The Wolf Lord’s ring works the same way, it consumes soul lifespan to release if there’s no magic."
Fang Ze gazed at the final clue before falling into deep thought.
"The boundless chaos breaks through the darkness, pointing towards dawn…"
Du Yuan sat directly on the ground, "We only need Owl Lord to complete the three Lock Beasts, once we defeat Owl Lord, we can go and fight the first level’s real boss!"
Zhang Qingyan turned around and asked, "Do you guys have any ideas yet?"
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, "I haven’t figured it out yet. Wolf Lord is for the night, Snake Lord is for the day, so what about Owl Lord?"
Just then, Fang Ze suddenly said, "Dawn."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Fang Ze and asked, "Why?"
Fang Ze glanced at everyone and explained, "Snake Lord exists to control Wolf Lord, alert during the day and chaotic at night."
"Owl exists to make sure the Snake is alert. Therefore, when Owl appears, Snake Lord will wake up from the chaos."
"When Snake Lord is awake, it is definitely daytime."
"So when Owl appears, it is the moment of dawn, when the sun is just rising."
"Of course, the clue also mentioned that."
The Emperor of Decryption has finally come online!
Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Since we know it’s morning now, where should we go to find the Owl Lord’s palace?"
Fang Ze already had a plan in mind, "If owls normally circle in the sky, then when it lands, it must be near the tail of a snake."
"In the story, it was mentioned that the owl grabbed the snake’s tail, and now that some time has passed, we will go search for the last palace tomorrow."
。。。
The next day, in the morning.
Everyone got ready and set off directly, following the map to search for the Owl Lord’s palace near the snake’s tail.
Although the area near the snake’s tail was not large, it was all plains as far as the eye could see, seemingly nothing particularly noteworthy to care about.
Fang Ze looked up at the sun, it had just risen and the sky was still a bit dim.
Now it seems like the perfect time, but why…
Haven’t you seen the Owl Lord’s palace?
"Have you found anything?"
Fang Ze asked the others.
Du Yuan shook his head, "No, there’s nothing suspicious around here."
Zhang Qingyan thought for a moment, "If Old Fang’s guess is correct, then where is the problem?"
Ye Qiu casually said, "Could it be that we’re mistaken and the Owl Lord’s palace is actually in the sky?"
In the sky?
The group looked up at the sound, and saw a stream of air rapidly rising.
Everyone followed the airflow downward and saw a large area of exposed marble.
Seeing this, everyone quickly approached and heard the airflow whistling non-stop.
Du Yuan threw a stone, and suddenly the stone flew up in an instant!
They followed the trajectory of the stone, but the stone disappeared.
"What is this?"
Ye Qiu gathered courage and stepped forward, "I will go explore."
With that, Ye Qiu boldly stepped onto the airflow, next second, his body soared into the air and flew out instantly!
Swoosh!
Everyone only heard a rush of air, and then Ye Qiu disappeared.
Fang Ze and his friends glanced at each other, then chose to step into the airstream one by one.
As soon as Du Yuan stepped in, he was immediately lifted out!
"Oh no!"
The group was suddenly thrown up high, and those afraid of heights fainted on the spot.
Fly, upon witnessing this scene, instantly felt a sense of suffocation and closed his eyes in fear!
Brother Watermelon kept yelling, "We’re doomed, we’re doomed, we’re doomed, we’re definitely going to die falling from here!"
While everyone was shouting and screaming, the scene in front of them suddenly changed, and they found themselves inside a palace!
Seeing this, Fang Ze was stunned for a moment. Looking back, they could still feel the wind on the ground behind them!
He tried to touch the floor, but his hand went right through it!
Soon, his hand was blown back by the wind again!
Fang Ze looked at the time, it was almost half past eight.
He had a guess in his mind.
"Wait for me for a moment."
Fang Ze said as he took a step back, and he ended up going straight through the floor, falling down of course!
A strong wind blew, lifting his body up, then slowly dropping him down!
"The wind is weakening."
Fang Ze kept staring at the time, and soon he landed on the ground.
But that strange wind was gone.
"I guessed right, the palace of the Owl Lord can only be entered in the morning, but it’s only for entering, not appearing."
"The palace of the Owl Lord has always been there, but it’s invisible, and to enter it, one can only rely on this air current."
"This air current appears when the sun rises, only lasts for a short time, and then disappears."
"Well, how do I go up now?"
Fang Ze was stunned, he couldn’t go up to confirm his guess.
"Forget it, let’s tell Old Du and the others."
。。。
On the other hand, above the sky.
Still waiting for Fang Ze, Du Yuan received a message, "Okay, don’t wait for Old Fang anymore, he can’t come up."
Ye Qiu looked around the palace, and to be honest, the whole atmosphere of the palace was very eerie and frightening.
It was like a giant sky city, with the walls and domes covered in dark structures with five-colored patterns.
As they went deeper, the patterns on the walls started to increase.
These patterns looked like screaming women, with terrifying faces showing extreme pain.
Upon closer inspection, the patterns didn’t seem like women anymore, but more like the faces of harpy creatures.
This time, without Fang Ze, Ye Qiu led the team and they continued to move deeper inside.
Soon they reached the boss area, luckily the ground was solid, and the place was spacious.
It seemed like there were no traps in the terrain.
Strangely, this time there was no sound cue for the boss’s arrival.
Ye Qiu was also puzzled because there was very little information about the three Lock Beasts from the past.
Thinking about this, Ye Qiu continued walking forward, but suddenly heard a burst of crying.
The crying sounded like a woman’s cry.
Ye Qiu and the others gradually arrived at the center of the palace, where they saw a long-haired woman with her back to them, sobbing softly.
"Sniff sniff."
Hearing the crying, Fly didn’t know what was wrong, and quickly said, "Oh, it’s a girl!"
