Beckford spread his hands slightly, and more figures appeared one after another above his figure. It's just that compared to Beckford's illusion that is like a real person, this time it is obviously a projection.
Dense figures are constantly switching in the air above Beckford. For Brent, who has gathered adventurers to come here, he can recognize most of them.
"The situation is terrible."
When Brent identified these people, Ethan paid attention to another point.
"These people don't seem to be held together, they seem to be held in completely different places."
Beckford retracted his spread hands, and the illusions above him disappeared immediately. Then he personally confirmed that Ethan's speculation was correct: "They are all locked in various places in the castle. If you attack any part of the castle, you may cause casualties of innocent people."
Ethan curled his lips. He knew that Beckford was making such a plan. Obviously, this guy didn't want Ethan to destroy the castle with a single shot, but let them in.
"What do you want to do?"
Beckford smiled suddenly, and for the first time since he appeared, his face appeared on his face. It was a very kind smile, but everyone felt chills when they saw this smile.
"I want to play a game."
"……"
Ethan was suddenly speechless. This line was so bad that he didn't want to take the conversation.
It's just that it's not just Ethan that stands here, and it's not Ethan that really pays attention to the lives of those adventurers, but Brent who brings everyone here.
He feels that he has brought everyone here, so he has the obligation and responsibility to bring everyone back safely.
"what game."
"The game is very simple. You rescue everyone and find the magic heart of this island, then you will win."
Beckford didn't say how to count him as a win, because it was obvious.
Everyone didn’t ask about the outcome of the failure. Both Brent and Brad already knew what Beckford did in private. If they failed, they would also be trapped in that castle. The final outcome was nothing more than becoming undead creatures. Or die.
Considering that becoming an undead creature will also be controlled and enslaved by Beckford, it may be a better end to die directly.
"Why do you want to do something like this game?"
Ethan is curious why Beckford did this, and what game was he playing suddenly?
If Beckford feels that he and others are a threat, why not just show up and destroy them? Could it be that he is not on this island?
"Because I want to do this." Beckford nodded at Ethan: "That's it."
After saying this, Beckford’s illusion disappeared. He has already expressed his attitude: Come play this game. If you win, the adventurers who have been locked up can be rescued, and the magic heart of the island will be found. No matter what means are used to dispose of it or destroy it directly, the huge island that blocked the entire route will disappear. This route is back to normal.
If you fail...Everyone doesn't have to think about that, everyone knows the end of the failure.
"I'll go in."
Brent first expressed his opinion.
"I go in alone, and I have a responsibility to rescue them all. But I can't ask you to join me into this dangerous place."
Ethan really wants to say that Brent, what you said makes sense, but the problem now is that if you don’t go in, does Beckford really just let everyone leave? He expressed serious doubts about this.
"Do you want to distract us?"
It's not that there is no such possibility. The concentration of power is always more difficult to deal with than the dispersion, and it is also impossible for Ethan to let Brent in alone.
If Brent fell into the castle because of this, Beckford would throw it out again and ask him if he could be saved? What is he going to do? Do you give up here and return directly?
Even though Ethan felt that his moral standards were not high, he couldn't do such a thing.
"Although I know this is a trap, I won't let you go in alone." Ethan looked at Brent and Brad: "Only when everyone is together can we exert the greatest combat power, even if it is true. I believe our ability is sufficient to solve the pitfalls."
But if you spread out...
Everyone knows the truth, but many people don’t make this choice when facing danger.
Ethan is different, because he has enough hole cards and retreats, it's okay to make a break together.
"Since he wants to play a game, let's play with him once."
Brad may still have some questions, but when both Ethan and Brent are determined to enter the castle, he doesn't seem to have much room for objection.
looked at each other with Liz next to him. Brad could see Liz winking at himself very clearly, but Brad hesitated and decided to act with everyone.
As Ethan said, what if the other party deliberately wants them to disperse? After both Ethan and Brent entered the castle, Liz was the only one left here. He didn't think it would be safer to stay outside the castle.
"Let's go, let's see what is special about this castle. The lunatic seems to think that as long as we enter the castle, he will win."
Everyone started to advance again, this time everyone seemed very cautious, and they had already taken out their weapons.
Logan still walked in the forefront, even a little bit away from everyone, just to give everyone time to react when he discovered the situation.
can walk all the way to the wall of the castle and stand in front of the open gate without any trouble.
With the clouds in the sky and some raindrops floating down, this place is like a dilapidated castle on an ordinary desolate island.
"If there are no wandering undead creatures, this castle is actually pretty good."
Having lived on a boat for a long time, Ethan really wanted a ‘home’ on land. In his free time, he considered many options, and the castle was naturally one of them.
But forget the one in front of him. Looking at the zombies who have noticed him and started to approach him, Ethan doesn't want the place where he lives is full of traces of such things.
"Clean up these zombies first."
Under normal circumstances, it must be a quick break through the zombie blockade, and then directly enter the inside of the castle. Anyway, once the door is closed, these things can't get in. Judging from their actions, these low-level undead creatures have no wisdom, and naturally it is impossible to know how to open the door.
But Ethan considers these things are wandering outside, and they are likely to block the door. They are here to save people. When a group of people think of it, it will be embarrassing.
I used to remove possible threats in advance, even if it seemed a waste of time, Ethan didn’t care.
"Also consider that there are a lot of people we have to save this time, and maybe some of them are unwilling to act with us and want to leave and return to the beach directly. We can’t bother to rescue people as soon as we go out. The zombies blocking the gate died in a sneak attack, right?
When everyone thought of the scene, it was too speechless. It should be cleaned up. It won't take much effort anyway.
After ensuring that the vestibule was safe, everyone pushed open the gate of the castle, and then entered the castle one after another.
At the moment when George finally walked into the castle at the end, the open door closed instantly. When George looked back and tried to open the door, he found that the door was closed tightly, just like a wall.
"No surprise at all."
Only Ethan has not looked back from start to finish. He is not surprised that this kind of thing will happen. He is now looking at the structure of the castle.
There is no complicated structure in front of me. The entrance is a staircase. There is a platform on the upper section, and then it extends diagonally upwards on both sides. As for what the end of the staircase looks like, I can’t see it from this place.
Where he is standing now, there are also several doors on both sides. I don't know what's going on behind these doors.
"This castle is very big. It's probably not a simple matter to find adventurers scattered around the castle It's nothing." Brad, who had been silent, interrupted suddenly. Brent and Ethan: "I tried it just now, and found that the effectiveness of the battle suit has dropped a lot, and the magic stone weapons can't perform their due abilities."
In order to prove his words, Brad deliberately swung his long sword: "My long sword will produce a very sharp transparent blade when slashing, which makes my attack range much longer. Ordinary long swords are no different."
Brent immediately drew out his big sword when he heard the words, and then swung it fiercely—the dazzling fire that had appeared during the previous battle did not appear at all.
"How is this going?"
Brent has never encountered such a situation before, and he has never heard of it. He can only focus his eyes on Brad, hoping that this adventurer from the sea of miracles can answer his questions.
"I'm not very clear, but I have heard some rumors that there are indeed islands that can invalidate magic stone equipment in the Sea of Miracle, but I have never encountered it... Maybe Beckford figured it out and mastered it. Secret, and then used to deal with us?"
The magic stone equipment was restricted, and the combat power of several people was almost cut to the bottom. At this time, they were still in the ‘carefully prepared’ castle of Beckford, and they were in big trouble no matter what.
In this situation, Brent found that Ethan and his partners were acting calmly, as if they didn't care about the situation.
Ethan certainly didn't care, none of them was mixed with magic stone equipment, this kind of strange ban was of no use to them.
