A rope appeared silently around Ivia's neck, but Alice quickly pulled it up before she could exert any force.

Alice pursed her lips, feeling frustrated.

"This method cannot be used without the prerequisites." Alice hesitated for a long time and could only explain this to Avia.

"So this ring is not just testing their physical attributes?" A confused Ivia asked with the intention of communicating.

This question could be answered, and Alice breathed a sigh of relief and gave an explanation:

"The main point is a test of physical strength, but you can also try to pass it in other ways."

Ivyya nodded. She understood the idea. First, create an extremely dangerous environment for the trial-taker, while also providing a hidden shortcut to pass the level.

Then set up a deadly trap in this shortcut. For example, the man with gold-rimmed glasses was unlucky enough to step into the trap. It fully utilizes people's mentality of taking chances. It's brilliant!

"So what does applying for hanging have to do with you?" Ivia brought the subject back.

Alice's expression changed dramatically. After looking at Su Xiao, she chose to tell the truth:

"In the past, I was caught by the Destroyer because I slightly devoured elements and disrupted the elemental balance. My punishment at that time was to be hung up and locked in a cage, so this is considered my black history."

"Great, so you are my nemesis! As the last Shadow of the Extermination of Law, I cannot coexist with you!"

Aivia slapped the table as she spoke, drew out her rapier, and raised her large shield, looking like she was ready for a duel.

Alice smiled a smile uglier than tears and reluctantly explained:

"I have changed my ways! Please believe me!"

"Really? I don't believe it. I'm very familiar with the Arcane Eternals. I'll ask them right now if you've continued to devour the elements!"

As Ivia said this, she sent an email to Sephiria, not caring at all that this behavior was inconsistent with her Shadow of Destruction vest.

As long as no one exposes it, no one will discover it!

"Do you know Alice Castle? The one with big blonde waves." Ivia was just looking for a reason to contact Sefia.

"Are you in Alice Castle? The newly born Shadow of Destruction is also there, right?" Sephiria replied to the email immediately and asked.

Aivia glanced at Su Xiao, who took the lead in speeding up the intake of the poisonous substance while Alice was being troubled.

After thinking about it, she sent an email to Sephiria:

"Yes, but I won't help you kill him. In a trial like this, you probably can't do it. He's quite strong. Don't send someone of the same level to die."

"Alice is a minor character who relies on the power of the castle. You don't have to care about her." Sefia did not comment on Ivia's suggestion, but just told Ivia not to worry about Alice.

Apparently, the plan was set.

Aiweiya didn't say much, turned around and continued to tease Alice:

"You're actually in contact with a formidable enemy like Arcane Eternal, and you claim you've reformed?"

Now Ivia has a general understanding of the relationship between Paradise and the Void.

Generally, various derivative worlds, that is, the worlds that can be reset by the Samsara Paradise, are below the fifth and sixth levels. Low-level contractors are trained in these worlds. After reaching the sixth level, they will gradually come into contact with the void.

At low levels, the Void Forces generally cannot come into contact with low-level contractors.

Except for Avia herself.

Therefore, the exact location of Su Xiao, who was only a third-level Shadow of Destruction, was known to the Void. The only reason was that Alice, who was connected to the Void, tipped off the person.

Alice's face twisted. She wanted to say, "You were just contacting Arcane Eternal," but she didn't dare. She could only bow her head and apologize sincerely.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have leaked your information. I didn't mean to."

There was no point in following the trend, so Ivia gave up and sat down again.

The conversation between the two was carefully separated by Ivia. She didn't care much about the feud between Mage and Arcane Eternal, and would not specifically support either side. At most, she would give some small suggestions for Sefia, just like she did just now.

For the rest, Ivia would just watch quietly, just like now, watching the contractors continuously consume poison.

This is the fate they chose for themselves, and they will be rewarded if they pass the trial.

Su Xiao's plan was simple: the wine poured by Alice herself must have a big problem, so it would be best not to drink it.

However, drinking was a procedure that Alice had set up in advance. When the food left on the table reached a certain level, a layer of shield blocked the food of the remaining eight contractors, forcing them to drink first.

Su Xiao calmly used another bottle of recovery potion, waited for his health to be restored, and then picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

The others followed suit, but the girl dressed as a detective looked troubled because she was running out of supplies.

"Finish the meal within 20 minutes. This is the dining etiquette of the ancient castle." Just at this moment, the wolf butler stood up and gave an additional condition.

The girl dressed as a detective closed her eyes and drank the red wine in one gulp. Then her whole body swelled up, and a small golden doll fell out of her sleeve and landed on the table with a swollen body. She herself returned to normal and began to eat the poisoned meat with big mouthfuls of heartache.

So she was the first to finish her food.

The second person to finish the food was the obese contractor who performed consistently. He was very stubborn and praised the food for being delicious, not mentioning the fact that he was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and couldn't even stand steadily.

The remaining two members of the Paladin trio also finished their food one after another, and lay directly on the table with low health.

Only the cat girl put on the mask of pain after drinking the wine, and the despicable poisonous wine effect popped up in her notification bar.

[Hint: You have drunk the "Bloody Agate".]

[Tip: You will not be able to receive any treatment effects within 20 minutes and will enter a vulnerable state.]

[Vulnerable state: Take any damage x2]

...

Her original physical attributes were at the lower end of this group of contractors. If she had only consumed poison, she could still hold on with supplies, but the effect of the red wine prepared by Alice made all supplies ineffective, and she could only rely on her physical attributes to withstand subsequent food poisoning.

There was not much time left, so the cat girl contractor made up her mind to gamble with her life. She was the last one to eat the poisoned meat in no time, and wanted to wait until she passed the second round to detoxify.

[Hint: You have eaten the tenderloin of the "Poisonous Dragon."]

[Hint: You are affected by the 'trembling poison'. ]

[You will be under the pressure of 'Trembling Poison', deducting 10% of your health per second, and the effect lasts for 5 seconds. ]

[Tip: This damage is real magic damage. ]

You are in a near-death state.

……

The jumping blood-deducting light indicated a critical hit. The cat girl failed to win the gamble and fell on the table like the two paladins, but she was already dead.

As the werewolf butler announced the end of the second game, Su Xiao also received a reward prompt.

[Hint: The hunter has passed the second game.]

[Hunter completes the Gourmet Heaven assessment, permanently increases poison resistance by 15%, and permanently increases health regeneration speed by 4 per minute.]

The few people who survived sighed as if they had just survived a disaster. Alice, the host, was the same. She had never hoped that these participants could pass the level quickly as much as she did now.

"Dear brave men, please follow me. The third round of the game is about to begin." Alice quickly took on the role of host and urged the contractors to move on.

"So fast?" Ivia asked with some confusion.

"Of course, the third game is an after-dinner activity, and you haven't had a rest in the past few days. The third game is to let you have a good rest." Alice explained that she also wanted to rest.

Chapter 188 Swift Attack

Alice led the remaining game participants to the third floor through a teleportation array disguised as a staircase, just like they had entered the second floor.

The third floor is somewhat like a residential house, about a few hundred square meters in size. As soon as you enter the third floor, there is a large living room. The decoration of the living room is somewhat retro, with two rows of crescent-shaped leather sofas facing each other, vaguely forming a circle.

In the center of the sofa, there is a low square stone table with a small sculpture on the stone table, which is the sculpture of Alice.

There are some fruit plates next to the sculpture, with fruits in strange shapes.

There are more than a dozen oil paintings hanging on the walls of the living room. The contents of the paintings are abstract, like the ravings of a madman.

On the north side of the living room is an upward wooden staircase. This is not the staircase leading to the fourth floor, but to a platform. There are seven rooms on the inside of the platform. The doors are closed and each door is numbered, 1 to 7.

The entire three-story structure is like a retro luxury apartment, accommodating seven people with a shared living room.

"Compared to the previous two games, this one is very relaxing. Perhaps the game will be over after you all get some sleep. Before you rest, please draw your room number cards."

Alice took out seven cards, each with a number on one side, 1 to 7, corresponding to the seven rooms.

After Alice finished speaking, she didn't ask everyone to draw their room cards. Instead, she placed seven room cards in front of Ivia and said:

"The higher the number, the more complete the facilities in the room."

Moreover, the number plate that Alice placed in front of Ivia was turned over directly, obviously wanting Ivia to choose freely.

Hearing this, Ivia directly chose the room number one.

Seeing that Ivia didn't make any other moves, Alice breathed a sigh of relief and casually covered the remaining room cards on the table, allowing them to draw them themselves.

The rooms were quickly allocated. The girl dressed as a detective drew room number two, Su Xiao drew room number three, four, five and six were taken by the three brothers, and the fat contractor drew the last room.

After the rooms were assigned, Alice smiled sweetly and spoke as if she was really going to entertain everyone:

"Everyone, please go back to your room and rest."

Aiweiya followed suit and stood up to go back to her room first, and said to Alice:

"The subspecies flying dragon meat just now tastes pretty good. Give me another portion."

"It will be ready for you right away." Alice replied politely.

The rest of the people also returned to the rooms they had drawn.

Ivia pushed open the heavy door of Room 1, which seemed to be as thick as the door of a vault in the real world, but there was no delay at all.

According to Ivia's guess, the third round of the game should be an intelligence test, but judging from the situation of the gate, this is not the case.

Ivia pushed the door open and walked in. The decoration in the room was in Baroque style, very gorgeous and complicated.

The quilt was obviously velvet, making the large bed with four white carved pillars look extremely soft and safe.

The smooth marble floor is so solid that you can almost see your reflection.

Several high chairs and sofas with golden frames surrounded the coffee table, on which steaming flying dragon meat was already placed.

The floor between the seats is covered with a navy blue carpet.

The style is wrong.

Ivia immediately realized that although the carpet felt warm when stepped on and was exquisite and extraordinary, it was out of place in the gorgeous room with sculptures in every corner of the ceiling.
