Chapter 520 "The Fantasy World of Death Castle: Lin Xiao's Life and Death Challenge"
Lin Xiao stood alone in front of the ancient and mysterious castle. The sky seemed to be covered by a huge black cloth, so gloomy that it was hard to breathe. The wind was howling, like an angry beast, tugging at her clothes and hair. Lin Xiao's eyes were intertwined with determination and confusion. Her brows were furrowed, her lips were trembling, and she seemed to be muttering to herself: "Is this the place where fate is decided?"
At this moment, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and her body trembled slightly because of nervousness and anxiety. "Oh my God, what is going on? How did I get to this point?" She bit her lip, with a hint of trembling and helplessness in her voice.
Suddenly, the heavy gate of the castle slowly opened, and a mysterious and powerful force surged out from it like a surging tide. Lin Xiao took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then walked into the castle with a firm but slightly trembling step.
The interior of the castle was dark and damp, filled with a pungent smell of decay. A strange blue light flickered on the wall, as if countless pairs of ghost eyes were peeping at her. Lin Xiao's heartbeat was particularly clear in this silent space.
"What the hell is this place?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but shout loudly. His voice echoed in the empty hall, but there was no response.
At this moment, a mysterious and eerie voice sounded in her ears: "Lin Xiao, do you think you can get through here so easily? You are so naive!"
Lin Xiao turned around suddenly, only to find that there was no one behind her, only endless darkness. "Who are you? Come out if you have the guts, don't hide!" She shouted angrily, her eyes filled with fear and anger.
“Hahahaha…” the mysterious voice sounded again, with endless ridicule and contempt, “If you want to know who I am, then it depends on whether you have the ability to make it to the end.”
Lin Xiao gritted her teeth, suppressed her fear, and continued to move forward. She walked carefully through each room, each of which seemed like a trap full of unknown dangers.
In one room, she saw a huge and ancient mural, which depicted a thrilling war scene, with blood staining the ground red and the soldiers' expressions twisted and painful.
"What does this mean?" Lin Xiao stared at the mural and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, the figures on the mural seemed to come alive, waving their weapons and rushing towards her. "Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed and instinctively stepped back.
"Don't run, little girl!" a warrior in the mural shouted, and his voice seemed to come from hell.
Lin Xiao dodged desperately, his heartbeat speeding up. "What the hell is going on? I'm going crazy!"
Just as she was still in shock, another voice rang in her ears: "Lin Xiao, you don't have much time. If you can't find a way out as soon as possible, you will be trapped here forever!"
Lin Xiao's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his eyes revealed despair. "No, I can't give up like this!"
She continued to grope around the castle, each step filled with fear and uneasiness.
Lin Xiao's footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, as if they were the only sign of life in this dead place. She carefully avoided the corners that emitted strange lights, and the fear in her heart continued to spread.
In the darkness ahead, a low roar was faintly heard, as if some huge and ferocious creature was approaching. Lin Xiao's breathing became rapid, she clenched the dagger in her hand and looked ahead vigilantly.
Suddenly, a huge black claw stretched out from the darkness and grabbed Lin Xiao fiercely. Lin Xiao dodged to the side, and the sharp claws left deep marks on the wall. With the weak light, she finally saw the monster in front of her.
This was a huge monster with sharp fangs and blood-red eyes, and the scales on its body were flashing with a strange light. Lin Xiao's heart tightened, knowing that he was in big trouble.
The monster pounced on Lin Xiao again, and she dodged flexibly by jumping, while stabbing the monster's eyes with a dagger. The monster felt the pain, roared angrily, and attacked more frantically.
Lin Xiao dodged the monster's attack and gradually lost her strength. Just when she was about to be knocked down by the monster, she discovered the monster's weakness - a piece of white scale on its abdomen.
Lin Xiao used up his last bit of strength, rushed towards the monster, and accurately stabbed the dagger into its weak spot. The monster screamed, fell to the ground, and disappeared into a cloud of black smoke.
Lin Xiao panted and slumped on the ground. Before she could recover, the surrounding environment changed again. The originally dark and damp corridor became extremely hot, and boiling magma began to flow on the wall.
Lin Xiao had no choice but to stand up and continue walking. The soles of her shoes were burned so hard that they were smoking, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
In this fiery passage, Lin Xiao saw a huge furnace with a raging fire burning inside. Next to the furnace was a stone tablet with some strange words engraved on it.
Lin Xiao carefully identified these words and found that they seemed to be an ancient spell. She thought that this might be the key to solving the problem.
As she struggled to decipher the spell, the flames from the furnace suddenly burst forth, transforming into a flaming giant that lunged towards her.
Lin Xiao dodged quickly. The fire giant's attack instantly raised the temperature around him to an extreme. Lin Xiao felt that his skin was about to be scorched.
While dodging the attack of the fire giant, she was thinking about how to deal with it. Suddenly, she remembered a bottle of potion in her backpack, which she got in the previous adventure.
Lin Xiao quickly took out the potion and threw it towards the flame giant. The moment the potion came into contact with the flame, a strong light was emitted, and the flame giant was enveloped by the light, gradually shrinking, and finally disappearing.
The crisis was temporarily resolved, and Lin Xiao continued to interpret the spell on the stone tablet. After some effort, she finally understood the meaning of the spell.
Following the instructions of the spell, Lin Xiao found a hidden mechanism next to the furnace. She pressed the mechanism and a secret door appeared on the wall.
Lin Xiao walked into the secret door, and inside was a huge library. The bookshelves were filled with all kinds of books, exuding an old atmosphere.
Lin Xiao was looking for useful clues in the library, and she found an ancient book called "Mystery of the Castle". When she opened the book, she found the history and secrets of the castle.
It turns out that this castle was built by an evil wizard who set up countless traps and magic in the castle to imprison those who dared to challenge him. Only by finding the magic gem in the castle can you break the curse and leave here.
Lin Xiao closed the ancient book and continued to search for clues about the magic gem in the library. Suddenly, a book fell from the bookshelf, and a shining gem was drawn on the open page.
Lin Xiao was delighted, and she followed the clues in the book and came to the depths of the library, where she found a sealed treasure chest.
Lin Xiao tried to open the treasure chest, but the seal was so powerful that she couldn't shake it at all.
Just when she felt desperate, she saw a pattern on the treasure chest, which was similar to the pattern on the mural she had seen before.
Lin Xiao recalled the contents of the mural and had an idea in her mind. She followed the instructions in the mural and found several books on the surrounding bookshelves, and placed them on the treasure chest in a specific order.
The power of the seal began to weaken, and Lin Xiao finally opened the treasure chest. However, there was no magic gem in the treasure chest, only a mysterious key.
Lin Xiao picked up the key, his heart full of doubts. At this moment, a sharp alarm suddenly sounded in the library, the bookshelves began to collapse, and the ground began to shake violently.
Lin Xiao knew that she had to leave here as soon as possible. She took the key and ran towards the exit.
At the exit, she encountered a tightly closed stone door. Lin Xiao inserted the key into the keyhole, and the stone door slowly opened.
Outside the door was a long passage, at the end of which was a faint light. Lin Xiao walked towards the light, his heart full of hope.
However, when she reached the end of the passage, she found herself in a huge maze, with walls so high that she could not see the end.
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and walked into the maze. She kept groping in the maze and encountered various mechanisms and traps.
Sometimes, the wall would suddenly burst into flames; sometimes, the ground would suddenly collapse. But Lin Xiao relied on his wisdom and courage to escape danger time and time again.
Deep in the maze, Lin Xiao found a little elf trapped in a cage. The little elf looked at Lin Xiao pitifully and asked for her help.
Lin Xiao decided to help the elf, and she looked around for a way to open the cage. Finally, she found a button under a stone next to the cage.
Press the button, the cage opens, and the elf flies out. In order to thank Lin Xiao, the elf decides to help her get out of the maze.
Under the guidance of the elf, Lin Xiao finally walked out of the maze. However, what was waiting for her was a more severe challenge.
In front of us is a huge square with four statues standing on it. Each statue is lifelike and seems to come alive at any moment.
Lin Xiao approached the statue cautiously. Suddenly, the statue's eyes glowed and began to move slowly.
Four statues attacked Lin Xiao, and she had to deal with them with all her strength. She dodged between the statues, looking for their flaws.
After a fierce battle, Lin Xiao finally found the weakness of the statues. She used her flexible body to break the statues one by one.
After the statue fell, a staircase leading underground appeared in the square. Lin Xiao walked down the stairs and came to an underground cave.
There was a pungent smell in the cave, and strange creatures were everywhere on the ground. Lin Xiao carefully avoided these creatures and continued to move forward.
Deep in the cave, Lin Xiao found a huge crystal ball. The crystal ball was shining with mysterious light, as if it contained endless power.
Lin Xiao approached the crystal ball and felt a strong attraction. She wanted to break free, but she couldn't.
Just when Lin Xiao was about to be sucked into the crystal ball, she suddenly remembered a treasure she had on her - the amulet.
Lin Xiao took out the amulet, which emitted a ray of light and resisted the attraction of the crystal ball.
Lin Xiao took the opportunity to move away from the crystal ball and continued to search for the whereabouts of the magic gem.
On the other side of the cave, Lin Xiao found a hidden door. She pushed it open and saw a huge room inside.
In the center of the room stands a huge treasure chest inlaid with various gems, emitting a dazzling light.
Lin Xiao was excited. She quickly walked to the treasure chest and opened it.
Finally, she saw the magic gem she had always dreamed of.
Lin Xiao picked up the magic gem and felt a powerful force surging into his body.
Just then, the castle began to shake violently and the walls began to collapse.
Lin Xiao knew that it was the power of the magic gem that broke the curse of the castle.
She clutched the magic gem tightly and ran towards the castle's exit.
At the exit, she saw the long-lost sunshine.
Lin Xiao walked out of the castle, finally ending this thrilling adventure.
She glanced back at the castle, her heart filled with emotion.
From now on, she will carry this unforgettable experience with her as she continues to face challenges in life bravely.
