Chapter 113 The Crimson Trial!
Chapter 113 The Crimson Trial!
Old Wang and Old Li worked quickly, and soon they had signed contracts with each of the group of people.
The contract was simple: they had to hand over all their gold coins and blood crystals, or they would have twenty years of their lifespan forcibly deducted.
After all, dying here only deducts ten years from your lifespan, but hiding things will deduct twenty years.
Anyone with a sound mind wouldn't keep secrets.
Before the contract was signed, there were indeed three people who were hiding things, and they were hiding blood-red crystals.
However, after seeing the contents of the contract, they had no choice but to reluctantly hand over the blood-red crystal they had been hiding.
Su Yu glanced at them but didn't say anything more; he simply made a note of the three of them.
If we encounter them again, we can just let them be killed by the monster.
Old Wang and Old Li approached Su Yu with bags containing crimson crystals and gold coins, and said with a smile, "Boss, you've brought the crimson crystals and gold coins. You shouldn't have kept anything from them, unless they're willing to pay the price of twenty years of their lifespan."
Su Yu nodded and said to the crowd, "You can leave now."
The group of people felt as if they had been granted a pardon. They lowered their heads and quickly left, without even having the courage to look back.
In the blink of an eye, only Su Yu and his two companions remained in the bushes.
Su Yu took the bag containing the crimson crystal and took out one of the crimson crystals.
[Level 40 Blood Crystal (Special Item): Go to the Crimson Altar to convert Blood Crystals into Trial Points. One Level 40 Blood Crystal can be converted into 10 points.]
"As expected, it's an important item in the Crimson Trial." Su Yu nodded slightly.
He glanced into the bag and saw a total of seventeen blood crystals, most of which were level 35 blood crystals, with only three level 40 blood crystals.
As for blood crystals of level 40 and above, there wasn't a single one.
Su Yu glanced at the description of the level 35 blood crystal again. One level 35 blood crystal can be converted into 2 points.
This is equivalent to the seventeen blood crystals here, which can be converted into a total of 58 points.
Su Yu handed the bag containing the blood crystals to Old Wang and said calmly, "Old Wang, you and Old Li can split these blood crystals equally."
"Since they left it behind anyway, why not take it?"
Old Wang was stunned: "This...how can this be? You saved the person, and you also took the blood crystal."
"I don't need this much." Su Yu pointed to the blood crystals scattered on the ground in front of him.
Keep in mind that those blood crystals are dropped by killing level 50 monsters, and each one can be exchanged for far more than 10 points.
Su Yu paused for a moment, then said, "Furthermore, I need your help with a small matter later, and this will be my payment to you."
Old Wang's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and he exchanged a glance with Old Li.
Without further ado, he nodded and immediately put all the blood crystals into his backpack.
As for how he and Lao Li will divide the spoils, there's no need to rush. They've been brothers for decades, so there's no need to worry about these details.
Then Su Yu took the bag containing gold coins from Lao Li.
He glanced at it and found that there were quite a few gold coins, a total of 2556.
"As for these gold coins, I'll split them between the two of you. No objections, right?" Su Yu said with a smile.
"We don't need the gold coins. Old Li and I have been working hard for so many years, and we've saved up quite a few gold coins." Old Wang waved his hand.
"Alright, wait for me a moment, I'll go collect the blood crystals on the ground first." Su Yu nodded.
Swish!
Su Yu moved swiftly, his speed increasing dramatically, and sped forward.
About two minutes later, Su Yu finally put all the blood crystals scattered on the ground into his backpack.
"It would be great if there was an automatic loot pickup function," Su Yu chuckled.
The blood crystals dropped by the berserk blood bull have a ten-minute protection period, during which only Su Yu, the killer, can pick them up.
There were 232 blood crystals scattered on the ground, and it wouldn't have been easy to collect them all.
If there were an automatic loot pickup function, this wouldn't be so troublesome.
"A level 50 blood crystal can be converted into 100 points, which means I directly gained 23200 points in this round. I don't know if that's a lot or a little."
As Su Yu pondered this, he walked towards Old Wang and the other man.
"I'm sorry to have kept you both waiting," Su Yu said with a smile.
Old Wang, carrying his shield, took two steps forward to meet them.
"Not long, not long," Old Wang waved his hand, his voice rough.
"I wonder what you meant by asking us to do you a small favor?"
Su Yu smiled and said, "You don't need to call me 'Big Boss,' just call me Emperor Yu."
"As for this small favor, it's very simple. I just want to ask you for some information about this place."
Old Wang was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Brother Yu... Brother Yu Huang, did you come in without knowing anything?"
"Yes, I accepted a mission and was teleported here. I know nothing about this place," Su Yu said in a deep voice.
Old Wang and Old Li exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Someone who knew absolutely nothing about the Crimson Trial was teleported here after accepting a mission.
It should be noted that they all entered through the Crimson Trial entrance, which opens once a year on the Tianlong Continent.
Only those who have completed their second job advancement are qualified to enter this entrance.
They hadn't expected there to be other ways to enter the Crimson Trial, which shattered their preconceived notions.
Old Wang was the first to come to his senses. He took a breath and said, "Brother Yu Huang, since you know nothing about this place, then Old Li and I will slowly tell you everything we know."
Su Yu listened quietly.
"The Crimson Trial is not a dungeon, but a separate and special space."
"Every year, hundreds of entrances appear on the Tianlong Continent, and one can enter the Crimson Trial through these entrances."
"The Crimson Trial is only open for seven days each time, but that's outside time. The time flow inside the trial is three times faster than outside, which means you can actually stay here for twenty-one days."
"Based on the timeline inside, the Crimson Trial has been underway for about ten days now."
"The entrance to the Crimson Trial is controlled by various major forces. Old Li and I were among the last to enter before the entrance closed."
"If you want to get in sooner, you have to pay them a lot of resources. Old Li and I are reluctant to give up these resources, so we can only be among the last batch to come in."
Su Yu nodded, which meant that the Crimson Trial would end in about eleven days.
His second job advancement quest requires him to reach the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking within fifteen days.
This means that his desire to reach the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking is most likely related to this Blood Trial.
This further convinced him that the game "Immortality" had not randomly teleported him here, but rather that it was a deliberate arrangement.
