Chapter 92: Cold Winter
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
He had finally reached the fourth floor.
The first thing Heath felt was: “So cold!”
After all, he was already a peak-level Knight, and his attributes had already reached 20.
However, he could still feel the bone-piercing chill in the cold wind. From this, it could be seen that the temperature here had already dropped to a certain degree.
“I don’t know what level of spell it is... even a Rank 2 Wizard wouldn’t be able to reduce the temperature in all sorts of areas...”
.
Thinking in a random way, Heath opened the map to take a look, and then began the journey again.
After walking for a while, Heath suddenly found a problem.
There seed to be no illusionary spirits left behind by Wizards on this level.
Without illusionary spirits, there was no one to explain the rules to him.
Then what should he pay attention to on this level? What were the difficulties? It seed that these were all unknown.
“Let’s continue walking first.”
After thinking for a while, Heath did not bother about this thing and continued walking towards the destination.
Other than the fact that there were no illusionary spirits, Heath also noticed that the number of Apprentices on this level seed to have decreased.
After walking for a day, he actually did not encounter any Apprentices. He only encountered so demonized beasts along the way that were not high-level attacks. They were all easily dealt with and their attributes were extracted by him.
There were no fights between Apprentices, nor were there any obstacles like the previous level. There seed to be nothing to be afraid of on this level.
Was that really the case?
Just as Heath made this guess, a snowstorm suddenly swept over.
The temperature was already low enough, and the surrounding environnt of the snowstorm was extrely harsh. Even with Heath’s physique, he was shivering from the cold.
The snowstorm lasted for three days. When the snowstorm ended, Heath heaved a sigh of relief. He did not expect to encounter another avalanche.
The snow from the high mountains was like a tide that covered the sky. Heath jumped onto a big tree in ti to avoid the avalanche.
When the avalanche ended, the snow that was knee-high increased to waist-high, making it harder for people to move.
Just as the avalanche ended, it suddenly started to rain.
The rain at such a low temperature was actually more terrifying than the snowstorm. When it fell on people, it was like a knife cutting through them, making them feel extrely painful.
In the next few days, the weather here continued this cycle.
The snowstorm, avalanche, rainstorm, ice, gale, and so on did not stop for a day.
“Environnt?”
“The difficulty of this level should be the environnt, right?”
After observing for a few days, Heath could not help but make this judgnt.
Although there was no need to fight, the difficulty of this level was more difficult than the previous levels combined.
Previously, whether it was fighting with Apprentices or alchemy creatures, at least it was not continuous. He could always find ti to rest for a mont.
However, on this layer, he could not rest for a mont.
This was because Heath found that when he stopped, the sand in the hourglass would flow faster.
However, when he walked forward, the sand in the hourglass would slowly increase.
Every day, there were only four hours after nightfall. During these four hours, the sand in the hourglass would not flow. Outside, whether it was a snowstorm or sothing else, it would suddenly stop.
These four hours was also the only ti they could rest.
“This is... deliberately torturing people...”
It could be seen that the purpose of the Wizards was to make the Apprentices keep moving forward, so that they would not have the ti to rest.
“Such torture... can anyone really endure it?”
...
As ti passed, the trial had also entered the end of the elimination phase.
More and more Apprentices were teleported out of the secret realm. So were defeated by high-level demonized beasts, so were defeated in fights between Apprentices, and so voluntarily withdrew.
But most of them failed because they did not have enough ti in the hourglass.
More and more Apprentices gathered on the lakeside. There were only a few dozen Apprentices left in the secret realm who were still persisting...
Underdark Treesea Secret Realm, at the entrance of the lake.
Sitting on the grass, Ferde looked at the images transmitted from the water ball.
Forest, wilderness, mountains, and snow plains. His gaze swept over every image in the water ball. He watched as the Apprentices were turned into stone sculptures and eliminated for various reasons.
And every ti this happened, a strange expression would appear on Ferde’s face.
He looked at the stone statues and kept muttering, “This is it... This is it... No one can reach the end... Everyone will fail... No one...”
His eyes looked a little crazy and neurotic.
Everyone could clearly feel that the elental fluctuations by the lakeside had beco abnormal.
The Wizards who knew the inside story subconsciously stepped back and cast so defensive spells on themselves.
The high and mighty Wizards even showed so fear in their eyes.
Fortunately...
The elental fluctuations did not last long.
After a mont of excitent, Wizard Ferde’s emotions gradually stabilized, and the elental fluctuations in the air gradually dissipated.
It was as if so sort of emotion had been released.
Wizard Ferde panted lightly.
Then, he raised his head and glanced at the scene on the water ball. He seed to have lost interest. He waved his hand and said, “That’s enough. Let’s end it here.”
Wizard Slater walked forward and bowed. “Yes.”
...
On the other side, in the fourth level of the Underdark Treesea Secret Realm.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A violent wind reverberated between heaven and earth.
On the vast white snowfield, there was a violent snowstorm.
This snowstorm seed to be even more violent than the previous ones. The violent wind even uprooted the giant trees nearby.
Walking in such a violent snowstorm, Heath even had to activate the vitality in his body and occasionally use Wizard’s Hand to grab the ground. Only then was he able to barely stand.
At this mont, his face was covered with a thick mask, which was tightly wrapped except for his eyes.
Even so, every ti the strong wind whistled over, he could still feel a knife-like sharpness scratching his cheek, causing pain to his cheek.
The skin tissue on his body had already shown signs of frostbite, and many places had even lost feeling. The temperature outside was terrifyingly low, and the surrounding environnt had already reached a terrifying level.
Even so, Heath still persisted.
The determination in his eyes had never changed.
He was a person who would not make a decision easily. Once he made a decision, then he would put in 120% percent of his energy to fight and work hard.
Since he had already decided to walk to the end, then it was impossible for him to retreat. No matter what dangers, difficulties, and hardships he encountered in the road ahead, unless he fell down, he would absolutely not admit defeat.
This bit of wind and snow was nothing.
Heath’s fighting spirit was high.
However, at this mont, a heavy bell chi suddenly sounded in the secret plane.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Before Heath could regain his senses, he heard Wizard Slater’s voice.
It was only a simple sentence, but it caught Heath off guard.
“The Apprentice Trial has ended. Apprentices in the secret plane, please leave the secret plane imdiately.”
Heath was stunned.
What was going on?
Why did it end all of a sudden?
