Host Paradise

Chapter 151 Halloween Castle ([-])

It seems that the pauses in team matches are very short, just 20 seconds.

The surroundings regained color, but it was still a gloomy style.

The flame burning in the kerosene lamp on the wall was blue, even more eerie than it looked through the black and white filter just now.

Wang Tianxiao did not move immediately, but first called out the system and created a task:
"Get out of this corridor!"

After the system heard it, it responded: "The task has been established, the difficulty is too low, and there is no reward."

"Oh? And what more?"

Even though he said that, Wang Tianxiao didn't show much surprise on his face.

If this system can really provide rewards for any self-built tasks, it will not only be 3 stars.

However, Wang Tianxiao's efforts just now were not in vain, knowing that the difficulty of leaving the corridor was too low, which meant that there was no danger along the way.

So he started strolling around.

The corridor was not long, and soon he reached the end, where there was a closed wooden arch.

Wang Tianxiao put his hand up and exerted a little force, only to find that the door was not locked and could be pushed open.

So he called out the system self-built task:
"Pass through the door unscathed."

But this time it was not successfully built. The system told him that he could only do one task at a time.

If he insists on creating a new task, he must cancel the ongoing task.

Cancel it, cancel it, Wang Tianxiao has already come this far anyway.

Then got feedback on this new task:
"The task has been established, the difficulty is elementary, and 10 physical strength points will be rewarded after completion."

After hearing this, Wang Tianxiao perked up. It seemed that there were NPCs inside, and they were also unreasonable ones.

Pushing open the door, he broke in.

Immediately, he saw a relatively empty large room, only some wine jars were placed around it.

In the center of the room stood a skeleton holding a machete.

After hearing Wang Tianxiao opening the door, it immediately rushed over.

Wang Tianxiao shifted his body slightly and dodged easily.

He did not rush to take action, but first used the [Eye of Insight] to check the attributes of the skeleton.

Although he can get a rough impression based on his feelings, Wang Tianxiao still wants to see the specific values——

"Body strength: 100"

"Spirit Strength: 20"

Sure enough, just as he felt, this skeleton was physically stronger, but its spirit was only slightly higher than that of ordinary people.

And its strong body is also not worth mentioning compared to Wang Tianxiao.

Originally, Wang Tianxiao could handle it with his bare hands, but considering that his mission was to get through this place unscathed, he still took out the [Energy Spear] to be safe.

The skeleton has already reached the front.

It was about to cut out the blade, but as Wang Tianxiao made a [diverting finger], the blade immediately stopped in mid-air and looked behind.

Taking advantage of this gap, Wang Tianxiao thrust out the spear that had been charging just now.

At such a close distance, the skeleton couldn't dodge at all.

In the air, a white skull flew out, and then it fell straight down.

"The primary task has been completed, reward 10 physical strength points."

Listening to the system prompts, Wang Tianxiao walked past the dead skeleton and came to the other door opposite.

While adding 10 points of physical strength, he also created a new task for the system:

It is still "passing behind the door unscathed".

This time, the feedback given by the system is that the difficulty is too low and there is no reward.

Seeing this, Wang Tianxiao pushed open the door and walked out with confidence.

Another empty corridor, the setting is almost the same as the previous one.

Wang Tianxiao joined the team's voice chat.

"Ah Xiao? Hello? Are you here?"

As soon as he came in, he heard Fan Shao calling him.

He immediately replied: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Fan Shao: "Is there a window next to you? Go out and see which floor you are on. I'm on the sixth floor. I just found the stairs. I'm going to find you now."

Hearing this, Wang Tianxiao looked to the left side of the wall, where there was a window, but it was very small.

"Wait for me to see."

As he spoke, Wang Tianxiao had already arrived below the window.

He bent his knees and jumped, and came to the height of the window. When he fell, he reached out and grabbed the window edge, and then propped his head out.

Then, he saw a vast forest.

Stretching out his head and eyes again, Wang Tianxiao finally caught a glimpse of the window on the floor below.

He counted them, and there were seven of them.

He's on the eighth floor.

After learning this, he raised his head again and looked up at his neck.

Enduring the discomfort in his neck, he counted the windows above, and there were eleven.

So the castle has nineteen floors.

After understanding the situation, he couldn't help but wonder: "Can the castle be built so high?"

"What kind of reality are you talking about in the game? Which level are you on?" Fan Shao's voice came again.

"Eight floors."

"It's so close, wait, I'll come over right away, you first look for the stairs on your floor."

After the voice ended, Wang Tianxiao walked forward in this corridor.

Not long after the journey came to an end, another wooden door appeared in front of him.

This time Wang Tianxiao didn't create a task himself, but reached out to push the door.

This door was also unlocked, and when it was opened, there was another corridor inside.

But this time, the right side of the corridor is no longer a wall, but two doors that are far apart.

It looks like two large houses.

Wang Tianxiao came to the first door closest to him. It was a double wooden door with iron handles and lock holes.

He didn't move the doorknob, but first put his palm on the door and applied a little force.

The door remained motionless.

Wang Tianxiao immediately canceled the current task and created a new task:
"Kill the monster behind the door."

The system feedback is that the difficulty is too low and there is no reward.

"Is there nothing behind?" Wang Tianxiao thought to himself.

Then create a new task:
"Crack the mechanism behind the door."

"The task has been established, the difficulty is too low, and there is no reward."

still the same.

Seeing this, Wang Tianxiao took off the palm placed on the door.

Then went to the second door.

The result was still the same, the door was locked, but no feedback from the system about the difficulty of monsters or mechanisms was received.

He had no choice but to continue down this corridor, which ended in another door after a while.

Pushing it away, Wang Tianxiao found himself in a palace.

The reason for this is that there are two rows of pillars near the gate, with blue kerosene lamps embedded in them, illuminating the smooth ceramic floor and the red carpet in the center.

However, further ahead, it is not clear.

The light from the kerosene lamps there was very low, and it even disappeared in the depths.

Wang Tianxiao canceled the previous task and created a new task:

"Defeat the monster in the darkness ahead."

"The task has been established, the difficulty is intermediate, and the reward item [Surveillance Totem x4] will be rewarded after completion."

Wang Tianxiao didn't expect that there was something really weird in there, but it's a pity that he couldn't see his figure in such a dark place, otherwise he could use the [Eye of Insight] to observe the situation.
