Chapter 12 12. Outsmarting the Hundred-Headed Snake
"Humans, thank you for your advice.
"Now, you are finished. "
After biting off its own snake head again and again, the eighty-seven-headed snake felt that its destructive power was increasing sharply every second. It was 10 times more powerful than ever! Nothing can stop it anymore!
Nine
times All the heads of the ten-headed snakes were raised together, ready to tear the two humans into pieces.
"Huh?" What about the two humans? "The ninety-four-headed snake was confused.
The ninety-six-headed snake looked around.
Behind it, the golden apple on the sacred tree was gone!
Farther away, Subway and Russell were riding away on horseback.
Obviously, Subway He and Russell took advantage of it to tear off the head of their own snake, and stole the golden apple. They also picked up 9 snake heads from the ground, put them into a bag, and then ran away quickly. "Let's run!
" As long as you bring back all nine snake heads and golden apples, the mission is complete! "On the horse, Russell shouted to Subway.
"Humans, stop!" "The ninety-nine snakes shouted and chased after them.
"Hurry, horse, or you will be overtaken by one hundred and one snakes." Look at my fighting spirit turning into a horse! "Subway kept stabbing the horse with spurs to drive the horse to run faster.
"How can two horses outrun me? "The one hundred and three-headed snake considers itself a mythical creature, and will not be thrown away by two horses. It continues to accelerate and run faster and faster.
However, no matter how the one hundred and four-headed snake runs, the distance between it and the horse is only getting wider and wider. The farther he went.
The two humans were about to disappear from his sight.
Only then did the one hundred and six-headed snake realize that it now had too many snake heads, which seriously slowed down its own speed. It was extremely slow when running, and it was hard to catch up. Russell and Subway were on horseback.
In this way, Russell and Subway returned to the king's palace.
They handed all nine heads cut off from the Hydra to the king along with the golden apples, completing the second Mission.
[Hydra Mission Completed!]
"Time is running out, set out immediately to challenge the Sphinx and complete the third mission. "
...
In another dream at the same time.
In the first few minutes, Bai had successfully used lamp oil and flames to prevent the regeneration of the Hydra, successfully killed the Zero-headed Snake, returned to the palace, and completed the second mission. .
Now, the progress of Bai and Nanami's team is still a little faster than that of Russell and Subway's team!
They have already arrived in front of the Sphinx and answered the Sphinx's first question. Waiting While the monster was asking the next question, Bai recalled some of the fragments outside the dream and said coldly to Qihai:
"Woman, you should feel honored.
"If my little brother hadn't happened to be away, and if a fool hadn't rejected my invitation to form a team, I wouldn't have partnered with you casually. "
Without me, you would never have been able to pass the test so easily and reach this final level. "
In the dream, he was no longer restrained, revealing the truest side of his character, and his words revealed unabashed arrogance.
Although in the dream, Bai could not realize that he was participating in a test, he still vaguely He remembered some information that impressed him outside of the dream.
For example, the exam information his brother provided to him.
For example, what impressed him deeply was the scene where Subway and Russell provoked him.
"Yes, thank you. "Nanami nodded, not denying what Shiro said.
The Sphinx opened his mouth again:
"My next question is..."
"
It seems that as long as nothing happens to Shiro's team, there should be no suspense about winning the championship. . "In the office, a middle-aged woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a straight face, the professor codenamed Agate, commented.
If there are multiple teams that can pass the test of the three tasks, then the team with the shortest clearance time will be the first place. !
"Indeed, Shiro and Nanami Team are most likely to win the grand prize I prepared. However, nothing is finalized until the last moment, and anything can happen. "The young male teacher codenamed Opal said.
"At this point in the exam, it is unlikely that there will be any big changes. "Black Amber said helplessly.
She hoped from the bottom of her heart that Russell, who was the prophecy hero, could win the championship. But his and Subway's teams were already clearly lagging behind, and it was almost impossible to overtake them. The
only chance to win the championship was for Bai and Nanami's team to make mistakes. Failed in the third level.
However, the test of the Sphinx is actually the easiest among the three levels. Bai can pass the first two levels, so there is no way he will fail here. Forget it, even if he
is in second place, The rewards are also very generous, but you can't get the mysterious grand prize... Black Amber muttered silently.
Moreover, Russell is a magic genius who can change the wrong ritual into the correct version. When he actually enters the school and masters extraordinary abilities, he will definitely perform even more amazingly. ! Why stick to the results of one entrance examination?
At the beginning, she felt that as long as Russell could pass the entrance examination normally, she would be satisfied, and there was no need to insist on being first.
When had her expectations been so high? What?
Will update early on Monday and ask for recommendations
