squeak~
No! I knocked on the door but didn't push it open. I should still be outside, but the sound of the door opening seemed to be coming from behind me!
"That's not cheating. You can break free on your own, but you'll get smelly and I don't want to see that. So I'm going to open your eyes and drain some of your strength as a way to help you finish this fight."
Ivia's voice suddenly appeared in Xi's mind.
The scene in front of me suddenly became clear.
A swollen corpse was tightly bound to the wall of the wooden house with iron chains. The tightly strangled corpse was still dripping with foul-smelling corpse oil. Moreover, the corpse had no head at all, let alone a mouth that could speak.
Xi was sweating profusely. After a short while, he found two energy-rich stones and a large candle on the table in front of the bound corpse.
The power of the sun that had illuminated the entire darkness not long ago has begun to fade, and the wooden house area has become dim again, and Xi needs this strange candle to illuminate it.
This corpse does not have the forgotten dominoes, the item for clearing the level.
Boom boom boom!
Just as Xi was about to inspect the house more carefully, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Xi secretly gathered her strength. Her attack power was severely suppressed in this wooden house area, and she needed to prepare in advance.
There was silence outside the door.
"Crystal Flame Explosion!"
Xi did not hesitate. The moment he used the airflow to open the wooden house, a surging crystal flame gushed out.
However, this power disappeared as soon as it left the house.
At the door stood an old woman holding an oil lamp. She was wearing a gray robe and carrying an old wooden box on her back. Her face was withered and her mouth was sewn up with black silk thread.
"Want some candles, young man?"
The sound escaped from the corners of her sewn mouth, and some of the silk threads slipped away like insects.
Xi stood up and confirmed that the old woman was the only one in the darkness outside the house, and his attack just now had no effect on her.
Xi immediately realized that this was not the opponent the contestants should face.
"What's the price?" Xi tried to communicate with the other party.
"This one is free, and the rest are a shadow stone and a candle."
The old woman took out a huge red candle from the wooden box and handed it to Xi, then pointed to other ordinary candles of different sizes and said.
Free things are the most expensive. Xi did not reach out to take the big red candle, but took out the shadow stone he had just looted and bought two white candles.
The old woman had no intention of forcing Xi to give it to her. She just placed the red candle on the ground, lit it, and bowed deeply to Xi.
Xi did not move aside. This etiquette was not directed at her, but at Lady Avia. As Avia's servant, Xi accepted this etiquette calmly.
The light of a red candle is no different from that of a white candle.
The old woman knew that Lady Avia was behind her, so she must be extraordinary. Xi took out another Shadow Stone and said:
"Do you know the whereabouts of the forgotten dominoes?"
The old woman had raised her head again at this time. She did not take the Shadow Stone, but just pointed into the depths of the darkness, then picked up the oil lamp and left.
Xi noted the direction pointed out by the old man, walked around the red candle, lit the white candle he bought, and walked into the depths of darkness.
Looking at all this, Aiweiya asked in confusion:
"What's this candle for? Is that old woman a merchant or your competitor?"
"The darkness that pervades the death chamber cannot blind you, but for others it is all-consuming. The prisoners in the cabin would give anything for such a candle."
"Here, candles are like currency. No one can refuse the light they bring, just like your warmth."
Anna explained.
Just explain it, why are you taking off your clothes?
A solemn black outfit looks good, no need to show your arms.
Wait! Why are the clothes on your back gone?
Ivia tried hard not to glance at the patches of white that appeared through the black veil, and Anna's half-smile.
Ivia is a little hesitant now, wondering whether she should just pass the level and run away. After Anna became alive and recovered, something seemed to be wrong.
In the darkness, rustling sounds occasionally reached Xi's ears.
When Xi turned around to check, he found nothing.
If left alone, the sound will get closer and closer.
After looking back several times, Xi, who had no reference points, lost his way.
The candles purchased with Shadow Stone burned very quickly. Xi was not sure how far the road ahead was. For safety reasons, Xi found a nearby wooden house and tried to trade with the prisoners inside.
Zheng!
Just as Xi approached the wooden house, several dark blue blade beams flew out from the dark doorway.
"Crystal Iron Arm!" After following Ivia for a long time, Xi's attack power did not increase, but his defense and ability to deal with emergencies rose rapidly.
The dark blue blade light was much stronger than Xi had imagined. Even though she had prepared for defense, the blade light seemed to have not been weakened at all and cut through her temporary crystal armor.
"Oh!"
Severe pain came along with the evaporation of energy in the body.
This is the shadow of destruction, Bai Ye!
Xi immediately shouted regardless of the consequences:
"Sunshine Gun!"
A life was burned out in the blink of an eye. Before throwing the sunlight gun, Xi had to stop, because the sunlight gun summoned instantly illuminated the wooden house in front of him. There was only a broken corpse inside, and no trace of the enemy.
This is a delayed or triggered attack!
As expected, he is still so despicable.
Xi retracted the Sunshine Gun and, with the utmost caution, bypassed the wooden house, fearing there might be other traps inside.
Not long after walking out, a mechanical click sounded and Xi stepped on something like a landmine.
Xi even felt as if a dog's tail was sweeping arrogantly past his feet.
boom!
The triggered mine, which caused three types of additional damage, poison, elemental damage, and explosion, broke Xi's leg.
Xi couldn't see who was plotting against her, but Ivia almost laughed out loud. The bastard Bubuwang was lying at Xi's feet, peeling a banana with his paws and eating it, while he was invisible and lazily placing mines.
After Xi stepped on the landmine, Bubuwang wagged his tail, threw away the banana peel and ran away briskly.
On the other side, Su Xiao, who was also exploring, also received a report from Bubu Wang. Ivia had given Su Xiao the Apollo O modification as compensation, but Su Xiao still hasn't fully understood the principle to this day.
With this kind of thing as a foundation, Su Xiao realized early on that Ivia might have a different understanding of low-level things from him. Then, as Ivia's servant, Xi must have a super-level trump card.
So even though he knew that the other party had a grudge against him, Su Xiao did not choose to target her immediately. He just randomly attacked a few wooden houses and left some traps inside.
Unfortunately, although the opponent stepped into the trap, he did not use his ultimate move.
"How effective is Dotk Brutalist?"
Lidya Su asked Bubuwang.
Bubuwang pulled up one of its front legs and limped a few steps, imitating Xi's appearance.
"Is it just her mobility that's impaired? Then according to the healing power of the Sun Faction, this shouldn't be considered a harm to her."
Su Xiao confirmed this and gave up the idea of fighting with the opponent in the Death House. The opponent's vitality was obviously inherited from a monster. Fighting hard in this stage would affect his subsequent status in the battle for supremacy.
"Go ahead and continue to harass her and delay her."
Su Xiao gave Bubu Wangang an order. Although the Death House was not small, it could only borrow very little strength and was not a suitable place for a decisive battle. It would be better to let Bubu Wangang, who had multiple blessings, engage the opponent.
Bubuwang was not given the ability to attack, but he was able to ignore the dangerous environment of the Death House and move around freely using props. This was his greatest advantage, and Su Xiao was very clear about this.
Su Xiao continued forward in the darkness. After more than ten minutes, he found a new wooden house. A bright red candle was lit at the door of the house, and the surrounding darkness was cleared by this huge red candle.
Su Xiao threw a small ball from a distance, and after finding that there was nothing unusual, he slowly approached.
The white candles he had collected after cleaning three cabins were no different from the red candles in front of him.
Su Xiao tentatively reached out and touched the candle, checking its properties.
Name: Light of Life

Effect 5: The fire of life will never go out once it is lit, and will drive away all darkness within a 5× meter range.
Item Description: In the deepest death, the dazzling light of life shines, which is the highest tribute of the dead to life.
Selling price: No ownership acquired.
……
Su Xiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately grabbed the candle tightly, trying to pull it up from the ground. However, the seemingly ordinary candle made Su Xiao's muscles and bones make noises, but there was no movement.
Considering the question marks surrounding the use of the candle, Su Xiao gave up the idea of taking it away and instead used a long knife to tentatively scrape off some wax from the candle.
This operation was very successful. Su Xiao scraped out a large lump of wax and placed it under his white candle, which greatly extended the time he could move in the dark.
The noise of scraping the candle attracted the attention of the people in the house.
"Is anyone outside?"
A young man's voice came from inside the house.
"Blade of Blade o Fiery Sun!" Su Xiao slashed forward directly with the sword technique developed from the power of the title of Sun Warrior.
The wooden door has an isolation property, and people inside the door generally cannot sense what is outside the house. Su Xiao just used this property to kill the prisoners in the house.
The sudden sound must be someone trying to harm me!
