Chapter 910: Chapter 438 Law of Order_2
"Then you can just wait outside."
Mu You said casually, quickly checking his belongings to ensure he had everything he needed before feeling at ease.
"Quack!" The frog let out a plaintive cry on his shoulder, sounding somewhat anxious.
"Don’t worry, once I get the Divine Pen and eliminate the enemy, there will be plenty of time to help you find a wife!" Mu You reassured it and then, holding an oil lamp, took a deep breath and stepped into the darkness ahead.
Watching Mu You’s disappearing figure, Cola hesitated for a moment but chose to stay outside the door. He looked suspiciously around, then decided to find a corner nearby to hide.
But just then, a loud roar came from behind.
Turning his head, Cola saw a huge blue-skinned Titan running swiftly towards the lighthouse, its fierce and malevolent aura as if it wanted to crush everything in its path, which scared Cola so much that he darted into the stone door ahead without a second thought.
Moments later, the giant form of Caesar had also hurriedly arrived in front of the lighthouse.
Upon seeing the open stone door, the Titan let out another unwilling roar. Then, transforming into a streak of blue light, he entered the stone door.
The scene momentarily fell silent.
Several tens of seconds later, two frogs crossed the jungle, hopping one after the other; they were the Stone Frog and the Ice Blue Frog.
The Stone Frog hopped to the entrance, didn’t rush in, but turned to call back to the Ice Blue Frog: "Little Bingbing, it’s very dangerous inside, you wait for me outside, I’ll go... uh..."
Unfortunately, before it could finish, the Ice Blue Frog had already hopped past it and leapt into the darkness inside the door.
"Wait for me, Little Bingbing..." The Stone Frog hurriedly followed.
With the two frogs also vanishing at the entrance, the scene was completely silent.
...
Mu You felt a darkening of sight and when he reopened his eyes, he found himself within a pitch-black and deep corridor, the apparitions of the frog and the Bard all gone.
The first thing he did after entering the tower was to hurriedly check his belongings because the Lamp God had warned him that some items might not be usable during the Divine Pen’s trial.
Mu You had guessed that perhaps it would be the rule that, excluding Relics, no other items would be usable...
However, upon checking, the result was even more desperate.
It wasn’t just that items other than Relics were gone—every single magical item had vanished from his person, except for his clothing. Even the Magic Power within his body had completely disappeared, and his physical state had regressed to that of an ordinary person before he became a player, with no attribute enhancements whatsoever.
Going from luxury to poverty is hard, and having been used to a high-level body, the sudden loss of all powers made Mu You feel an unprecedented emptiness.
"So this trial has to be undertaken in the form of an ordinary person?" Mu You frowned to himself.
After checking his physical condition, Mu You then had the time to survey his surroundings.
Looking left and right, there were walls on both sides, with some star-like substances embedded in the stonework providing the only light. Mu You looked up and saw that the walls stretched up beyond his sight; with his current body, he had no ability to climb over them.
Looking back, there was a wall directly blocking his way.
In other words, the only way he could go was forward...
Mu You faced the deep darkness ahead, took a breath, and walked on.
However, after only a short distance, a ’clack clack’ sound of mechanical movement suddenly echoed from the darkness ahead.
Mu You promptly looked up and saw that in the faint light of the corridor, a mechanical beast with the shape of a War Horse slowly emerged from the darkness.
"Hiss..."
Upon noticing his figure, the War Horse immediately stopped its stride, letting out a whine, then lowered its head, showing the single horn on its forehead, while its left forehoof began to paw at the ground as if it was about to attack.
Meanwhile, Mu You felt something grasp unexpectedly in his hand.
Looking down, he realized that a brush had appeared in his palm out of nowhere, about the same length as an ordinary Magic Wand, except for the tuft of wolf hair at the tip, looking like a common withered branch.
[The Illusory Pen of Order!]
Upon seeing the pen, its name automatically surfaced in his mind.
A fake Pen of Order... what did that mean?
Was he supposed to use this pen to defeat the mechanical horse?
Mu You watched the facing War Horse with a strange expression.
Unfortunately, there was no time left for him to ponder.
After a series of pawing, the War Horse shook its hooves and charged fiercely towards him.
Mu You’s expression tightened; if this were before, facing such a low-level mechanical beast wouldn’t concern him in the least—he could have easily dealt with it with a casual move.
But now, having lost all power, reduced to an ordinary person, this mechanical horse could end his life in a variety of ways!
With the War Horse thunderously charging towards him, Mu You hastily dodged to the side and with a leap, he stepped off the wall, jumping over the War Horse’s head. Making use of some parkour skills, he narrowly managed to avoid the charge.
However, just as he tightly grasped the brush and soared over the War Horse, he suddenly noticed his perspective shift. The War Horse in front of him became a solid mass of ’Runes,’ with dense numbers and symbols arranged orderly, eventually forming this mechanical creature.
Beyond that, the walls on both sides and the ground under his feet also transformed into walls made of Runes.
