968 The true test of courage
In the turbulent lake water and mud, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly.
the unremarkable sand began to return to its former appearance, and the debris condensed into the buildings of the mountain gate and palace.
The entire bottom of the lake became clear at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It turned out that the entire Lake was the entrance to the temple of courage.
Link looked at eros teasingly and laughed, ” “You’ve been here for more than a month, don’t tell me you still haven’t found the temple of courage?”
Eros couldn’t say a word, but that was the truth.
He had fought with the rock giants and the Barbarian race that day, and he had used his own strength to defeat the two races. He also received the ancient test left behind by the two races and successfully resolved the hatred between the two races. He became the king of planet blade.
In the past month, he had not found any information about the temple of courage.
According to his men, this place was where liankovich used to meditate and research.
But no matter how he searched, he couldn’t find any clues or sealed artifacts.
The moment link arrived, he activated the temple of courage.
this feeling of being in the hands of fate made him extremely unhappy, but he could do nothing about it.
In front of link, he always had the illusion that neither the right time, place, nor people were on his side.
A strange light emerged from the mountain Gate, and then a voice appeared in everyone’s ears.
“The temple of courage is only open to those who truly possess courage. Only by facing one’s own fear and successfully overcoming it can one open the sanctum.”
The temple of courage’s request sounded simple, but it was not so easy to do.
not just eros, even link’s expression changed.
Facing one’s own fear was easy to say, but not easy to do.
Everyone had to face the fear in their hearts, but this fear was not something that they could face or overcome just because they wanted to.
If it was that simple, then this world should be filled with fearless people.
Moreover, he was currently on planet blade, so it would be impossible for him to face fear.
Link considered for a moment before asking, ” “Fu, can you break through this Mountain Gate with void walk?”
Fu immediately entered the state of [ void walk ], but he reappeared in less than two seconds, shaking his head helplessly.
“boss, this place is the same as planet omega. there’s a layer of energy isolation, and there’s no way to get through.”
Link didn’t have high hopes either. He just wanted to try.
When they were forging in the past, the five sages had probably already thought of this. Some dimensional spells or shuttling abilities could directly bypass their restrictions. In order to avoid such a situation, the ruins of the five sages basically used similar teleportation technology. After entering the mountain Gate, one would be teleported to the real location. That was where the sealed artifact was truly stored.
This method could prevent people from taking advantage of the situation, skipping the test, and directly obtaining the sealed artifact.
Seeing Link’s helplessness, eros’s eyes lit up!
He had been here for a month and had not found the temple of courage, but so what if link did? He still couldn’t enter.
now that he’d heard of the way to open the temple of courage, he was finally on the same starting line as link.
Although he didn’t know what Link’s fear was, eros knew that his greatest challenge right now was link.
Only by defeating link would she be able to overcome her inner demons and overcome her fear.
thus, eros’s goal was clear-to challenge and defeat link.
this way, not only would he be able to overcome his inner demons, but he would also be able to open the temple of courage and obtain liankovich’s sealed artifact. He was going to surpass link in front of him!
fu stared at link curiously. he was also curious about what his boss’s fear was.
Link stood in front of the mountain Gate and observed for a while. Finally, he turned and left with Fu.
Looking at Link’s resentful return, eros was extremely satisfied.
when they left the bottom of the lake, the mountain gate collapsed again, turning into sand.
The bottom of the lake returned to its original appearance, waiting for a warrior who could truly face his fear.
Although link had already expected that lunkovich’s test would be related to courage, he did not expect it to be so direct. He had to overcome his own courage in order to open the Holy sanctum and get the sealed artifact.
Link fell silent as he pondered the matter he needed to face the most.
“Link, I want to fight you! Let’s follow the rules of planet blade!” Eros suddenly said.
Link turned to look at eros, breaking through his defense with a single sentence.
“could it be that i’m your greatest fear? You’re actually in such a hurry to challenge me. It seems like you’ve already been completely enveloped in my shadow.”
Link’s words rendered eros speechless. Link’s words were no longer just a psychological attack on him. He even felt a dull pain in his chest, which spread to the physical level.
“Who said that my fear is yours? I’ve always wanted to fight with you to see who is the most romantic and unique existence in the mowall galaxy cluster, but I never found the opportunity. Since you’re free now, why don’t you just stay here and let me experience your strength?”
“Since you don’t even dare to admit your fear, how can you talk about facing it? You’d better think about it again.” Link said. He and Ah Fu walked to the lake, ready to leave on the landing ship.
“it’s easy for you to say, but what about you? Do you dare to face the fear in your heart? Didn’t he think for half a day and finally run away!”
“you’ll know my fear very soon,” said link, smiling. As for the inside story and details, I think macaw and silver hand will be happy to tell you.”
With that, link and Fu boarded the ship. As the surface of the lake rippled, a pillar of water shot up into the sky.
The waterdrop-shaped landing ship leaped into the air, drawing a beautiful arc in the air before leaving.
After link left, eros stared at the macaw and asked, ” “What insider information and details did link mention? what do you two know that you didn’t tell me?”
tears welled up in the macaw’s eyes as it said indignantly, ” “Boss, solve the secret of the dimensional Codex! It’s my and silver hand’s turn this time!”
...
“what? The dimensional Codex is dead?” Eros was shocked. He didn’t think that link would secretly execute the dimensional Codex.
“Yes, silver hand and I haven’t seen him for a month. What else could it be other than a secret execution? When we were carrying out the mission in the nether underground Palace, we were both grounded and not allowed to leave the mechanical fortress. But this time, he arranged for us to do a mission. It’s obvious that he’s looking for an opportunity to get rid of us.”
Eros couldn’t help but frown.
Although he hadn’t interacted much with link, just as link had said, eros had been completely covered in Link’s shadow. However, Eros Now had a deeper understanding of link. In his impression, link wasn’t someone who would kill without mercy. Besides, even if link wanted to kill them, he could have done it in the mechanical fortress without anyone knowing. Why would he wait until planet blade?
“Is this what link asked you to tell me?”
the macaw was stunned for a moment, then it put away its pretentious act and shook its head. ” ” no, he didn’t tell me. instead, he asked us to reflect on our actions. ”
This time, eros was even more confused. Link didn’t say anything, but asked the macaw to tell him. Was this a riddle?
However, the Russia also knew that link wouldn’t do anything without a reason. There must be something fishy about this.
“Come, tell me everything that happened after you went back.” Eros transformed into a detective and began to deduce the problem from its roots.
The macaw and the Silver Hand looked at each other. They knew that they could no longer hide it, so they could only tell him everything.
When eros learned that these two audacious fellows had actually stolen the evil God’s remains from the evil God’s forbidden ground, the veins on his forehead bulged. After he had listened to the whole story while holding back his anger, he gritted his teeth and said, ” “It’s already kind of link to let you two live until now! I have to admit that link is better than me in this aspect! If it were me, you two would already be dead.”
...
this was the first time Russia admitted that link was better than them in some aspects.
The macaw looked as if it had seen a ghost and suddenly reacted, ” “I understand now. This is Link’s plan to drive a wedge between us! He wants to use you to get rid of the two of us so that we can kill each other and he can reap the benefits. We must not fall for his tricks!”
Eros slapped the macaw’s head, causing the feathers to sway.
“Link wouldn’t do something like that.” the Russia went silent for a moment and then said, ” “If I’m not wrong, he’s probably going to do something big this time, hehe.”
Russia knew that link was essentially the same type of person as him.
So link didn’t dare to face his fear, especially when he said something before he left that he was going to cause trouble.
do you know what kind of organization the Supreme Council of Wizards is? ”
The macaw nodded and answered, ” “I know, I know. The Supreme mage Council has dozens of a-grade great mages, and it is an extremely powerful mage organization in the universe. Even the great mage emoris from the mowall galaxy group doesn’t have the qualifications to join this organization.”
Eros rubbed his temples and said helplessly, ” since you know that the Supreme Council of Wizards is so powerful, why did you still steal the evil God’s remains that they suppressed? ”
“Link told me this after,” the macaw said, scratching its head.
The Russia was completely defeated by the macaw and said, ” “If I’m not wrong, link is planning to summon the Supreme mage Council here to face the fear in his heart.”
Oh? ” the macaw’s eyes lit up. if boss gets rid of the Supreme Council of mages, won’t we be safe? ”
“Do you think the Supreme Council would start a fight with link or wipe us all out first?”
The macaw was speechless and couldn’t say a word.
they couldn’t even defeat link, who was only a [ B+] class expert, much less dozens of [ a ] class experts. He estimated that the other party could easily crush them to death with just a slight move of his finger.
The Russia sighed and said,”link really has me under control.” right now, my greatest fear isn’t him, but the supreme mage council that i’m about to face. However, with my strength, I have no way of contending against the Supreme wizard Council.”
The Russia looked at the calm lake and said, ” “It seems that the temple of courage has no fate with me.”
The plan he had designed for so long had been completely destroyed by link with just two words, and he had withdrawn from the battle for the temple of courage.
The Russia considered for a moment. Staying here would only result in them being killed. If he ran away in advance, he might have a chance of survival.
The Russia was unusually clear-headed at this moment. He understood that his advantage was speed.
Once they settled down in one place, they could only be surrounded and annihilated.
However, when he piloted the heart arsonists, he could go anywhere in the universe. Even the Supreme mage Council would have to spend some effort to intercept Russia in the universe.
After the Russia made his decision, he simply said, ” “I was planning to have a competition with link. in the end, link’s words made me want to retreat. there’s no use for me to stay here now, so do you plan to stay here or leave with me?”
The macaw scratched its head and hesitated for a moment before saying, ” “Since you said that boss is preparing to summon the Supreme mage Council, then I’ll stay here. I can more or less help. If I run away at this time, I’ll even spit on myself.”
“Even though I don’t care about rules, link is still my temporary guardian,” silver hand added.”I can’t just leave now.” Not to mention, I also want to see just how powerful the Supreme mage Council is. Is it really to the point where just a name is enough to scare people to death?”
Link was still thinking about it when he returned to the mechanical fortress.
His biggest worry now was the Supreme mage Council, which was also his biggest obstacle in opening the temple of courage.
Of course, this was not an unsolvable infinite loop.
Although Link’s strength had yet to reach Grade A, it did not mean that he was not prepared and confident enough to fight against one.
But no matter what, this was definitely a risky move.
Thus, link still needed to think about it seriously and think of a way that would give him the most advantage.
Just as link was deep in thought, Troy suddenly appeared. President, there’s an encrypted message from another star system. It’s information about the batins mercenary group.
“Oh? It’s from batins?”
Troy quickly cracked the encryption of the message. this was a piece of encrypted content using the dock of the stars. it was a unique means of communication between link and batins.
Link quickly read the contents.
[ we didn’t disappoint the president’s expectations and successfully found the sealed artifact left behind by the Black Queen. [ guild leader, please give your next instructions. ]
In order to deal with the God of plagues, one only needed to gather four pieces of the sealed artifact set to trigger the set effect.
Right now, link had two of them. The one that batins had found the Black Queen, and liankovich’s sealed artifact was on planet blade.
Link thought for a moment and suddenly had a shocking idea!
