Bab 54: Chapter 54: Endless Chain of Traps

Double Chapter day!

-----

Just as Welt vanquished Margit the Fell Omen and boosted his stats using blessings, he would promptly return to the Ella Church.

After all, it was the place where he could utilize blessings to purchase Stonesword Keys. With two Stonesword Keys in hand, he could thoroughly explore the dungeon in the tutorial area!

However, just as Welt settled on the blessing, restoring his condition and adjusting the ratio of his blood vials and mana potions, he encountered Miss 'Renna' and even acquired a Spirit Ash and a Spirit Calling Bell.

Looking at the description of the Spirit Calling Bell, Welt regretted not encountering this item earlier. If he had a meat shield to attract aggro, wouldn't it have been easier to defeat the Margit the Fell Omen?

"It seems that the developers support players exploring dungeons more before tackling the main storyline. Otherwise, we wouldn't have encountered this witch, Renna. Well, our next target is the dungeon. It feels like there's something bad inside, and everyone is eagerly anticipating my exploration."

[Yes, there are many good things in dungeons, and the essence of this game lies here.]

[Have you seen the talisman pouch? Don't you want to fill it up!]

"So, talismans are all found in dungeons? I have to explore dungeons now!"

With that, he immediately used the blessing to teleport and carried the jellyfish bone ash given by the little girl he met on the way.

Then, Welt inserted the second Stonesword Key.

The mist dispersed, but what he saw inside was a filthy swamp.

Decaying flesh, shattered bones, and occasionally bubbles popping up."Uh... is this place okay?"

[Jumping ahead, need rolling.]

Seeing such a message, because many phrases in the game are fixed, it's convenient for people from different countries to communicate without barriers.

But sometimes there are grammatical errors or mistakes.

"So, it's okay to step on ahead?"

Without waiting for the barrage to answer, Welt just jumped down directly.

Anyway, the Runes were almost gone, and if he died, he wouldn't feel sorry for the Runes.

Then he saw a debuff suddenly appear above his health bar.

"Oh no! Poisoned, this pool is filled with toxic! Run fast!"

Then, Welt quickly rolled, trying to use rolling to speed up his progress.

But after rolling around, the poisoned debuff became even more severe!

[Hahaha! Rolled indeed! Did you taste the pool while rolling! You were poisoned even faster!]

"Oh no, does rolling actually make the poison worse? Then, simply run!"

It's hard to run in the swamp, but it's much better than walking slowly.

However, running might consume energy. After rolling just now, a lot of energy was consumed, so Welt didn't run far before he needed to move forward slowly.

Then the character entered a poisoned state, and his health bar dropped rapidly.

"Fortunately, I filled up my health at the site of grace earlier..."

Welt took a sip of the crimson tears and finally reached the shore.

Fortunately, there were no ambush enemies on the way, nor did he encounter any traps.

There was only this slightly frightening poisonous pool.

But the poisoned buff was not easy to dispel, and now Welt understood what the immunity attribute really meant.

Is there anything else to say now?

He just need to move forward.

Then, Welt saw a message on the ground.

[Deliciousness behind, need roll.]

Seeing this, Welt's blood pressure rose.

Rolling, huh!

Deliciousness, huh!

He didn't realize that his character was eating poison until now!

"Never mind, don't think about these things. I understand now what this dungeon is all about. It seems that everything inside here is the developer's twisted humor."

Continuing forward, there was a huge slope ahead, and there were faint sounds of rumbling figures inside, as if some huge mechanism was moving!

Then as he walked down, the noise grew louder.

[Run fast]

Welt saw a message.

He immediately had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, a huge war chariot came rushing from afar!

Of course, Welt didn't just stand blindly and get crushed by the war chariot. Instead, he quickly ran to the pit by the roadside.

Yes, this kind of mechanism is very simple. Generally, there will be blank spaces left by the developers along the walls as a hiding place. Such mechanisms are also quite common in games.

So Welt immediately noticed the way to crack the trap.

But why were there so many bloodstains on the road?

And it's still in that same pit he was at. There's a message on the ground; take a look.

"Huh? Damn it!"

Welt rolled hastily but still got ambushed!

With the blood draining from poisoning, Welt was just a hair's breadth away from death.

He rolled frantically, then seized the chance to drink a potion.

The monster who suddenly appeared in front clearly had no intention of letting Welt go, but in his weakened state, Welt inevitably felt nervous.

So he anxiously watched the HP go down, then he hurriedly rolled again.

But at this moment, the war chariot behind him was not so easy to deal with.

A dark shadow flashed by, accompanied by other monsters suddenly appearing around, Welt's character died immediately.

The excitement came so suddenly.

So suddenly that Welt is still a little dazed now.

"Oh my god, what kind of trap is this! Why is it so cleverly cunning! First, use poison to lower the player's Health, then hide mobs for ambush, and there's even such a big war chariot on the road!"

Welt's mentality is exploding.

This unexpected ambush caught him off guard.

He thought the dungeon's cunning intention ended here, but he didn't expect every corner of the dungeon to be filled with the developer's malice.

He seemed to see the mocking bunny laughing at him.

"Cough cough, We didn't expect us to be played by the game developers. It won't be so easy to trick me next time!"

Welt continued forward.

When passing through the poison pool, Welt found that as long as he kept running, he could leave the poison pool just before getting poisoned.

As long as the poison buff didn't accumulate too much, he wouldn't suffer too much damage.

Next is the slope. As long as he attacks the moment he enters the pit, the monsters inside are easily dealt with.

Unexpectedly, there were monsters in other pits too, but they were killed by the passing war chariot, leaving Welt to pick up a bunch of runes for nothing.

"It seems that this path is quite long, and it seems that the war chariot only runs back and forth on the road I'm on? The next path is even longer, not sure if I can handle it."

The fact that the war chariot is chasing him only on his path were noticed by welt, it's because Welt noticed that the war chariot that should have gone down at the corner suddenly came back for a trip. Considering the malicious intentions of Haxxor, she also left a trick.

But then he couldn't hold on anymore.

The dungeon is very dark, with limited visibility, but vaguely, he can see the end of the road ahead.

But he can't judge whether running down there will really reach the destination.

Forget it, whatever, if he can't reach it, he'll start over from the beginning.

With this thought in mind, he rushed down, not knowing that the latter half of the road was actually a single-plank bridge!

And at this time, Welt also heard a rumbling sound, indicating that the war chariot was approaching.

"Ah!"

With one move, his character was crushed by the war chariot again, and this time he couldn't even think about hiding.

Because there were cliffs and pitfalls all around, jumping down would definitely result in death.

"So this is the function of the single-plank bridge, not planning to let me in from the beginning? But there's a turn ahead, it seems like I can still go deeper..."

Welt is at a loss.

"Is there a hidden path at the cliff?"

[Is it possible that there's also a hidden path in the pit? Remember, in this game's dungeons, hidden walls require attacks to destroy it.]

"Probably, there are hidden paths... I didn't expect this dungeon to also include puzzle-solving elements, but when the game becomes three-dimensional, there are more things to consider. No wonder it takes two Stonesword Keys to unlock it, just to prevent any novice players from entering. You viewers are really causing me trouble!"

Kiana was quite happy watching the livestream in the room.

Watching Welt being crushed by the war chariot again, then suddenly ambushed by monsters in the process of searching for hidden paths was really fun.

To be honest, Kiana hasn't been so happy since Siegfried played "Getting Over It With Haxxor Bunny" last time.

"Bronie sister, did you design this dungeon too?"

"Yes, and there are many dungeons that are like mazes. Isn't it interesting to see them wandering around in confusion because of my traps?"

"Yeah! I want to make games with my sister in the future!"

"Do you like making games, Kiana?"

"Yes!"

Then a smirk flashed across Bronie's face, accurately caught by Kiana.

Suddenly, Kiana began to feel a little nervous.

Could it be that game development is very difficult?

It seems so, because she often sees Bronie leaving the town to work. Even in Eden's class, Bronie is always serious, as if doing homework.

"If you want to make games, you have to start with mathematics, then programming languages, microcontroller architecture, architecture, and psychology."

Suddenly, Kiana's eyes began to blur.

So many courses, she doesn't know how long it will take to finish.

And there's math!

QAQ

Kiana's tears were about to flow out unbidden.

"But you can also choose music, art, but ultimately you can't escape math, so math is the foundation of games. If you really want to make games, not studying math well will fundamentally cut off this path."

"I, I will work hard!"

"I'm looking forward to it!"

Bronie just thought Kiana was joking casually.

But actually, Kiana isn't too dumb, just a little spoiled.

At least in the story, especially after she moved into the St. Freya Academy after the third eruption.

Finally, she lived a good life, and the pressure she wore usually eased, so she forgot how to use her brain when she relaxed.

But the Kaslana family doesn't like using their brains, Bronie knows that well.

Details please refer to Kevin, Siegfried, and Durandal.

These people are not fond of using their brains too much, but when they do, they're quite smart.

It's just that Bronie can't imagine Kiana coding.

Really.

....

Unconsciously, Welt has been livestreaming for more than three hours, except for spending a lot of time on Margit earlier, the rest is all exploring this dungeon.

After each death, symbolic messages left by other players will appear on the ground.

And the War Chariot in this dungeon can be destroyed, so as long as the player who destroyed the War Chariot thinks of a solution, they will leave some information after pondering it.

And relying on this information, Welt finally found the hidden path under the single-plank bridge.

Obviously, he could have reached it by jumping off the right side of the bridge, but because of the pressure brought by the War Chariot, Welt never saw the message on the ground.

Fortunately, the message was really useful, and Welt managed to find the next path at the cost of a life.

But who knew there were two Stone Imps hidden below?

After dealing with the Stone Imps, there was even a flame trap above the passage, which would instantly devour anyone who entered the passage.

And with Welt's low health, he was instantly killed, but fortunately, the second time he came here,

Welt remembered these puzzles, so he charged forward skillfully.

Flames? There's a fork in the road ahead, this is just a small trap.

Is there a maze underground? That's okay, just look around, after all, this is a mechanical dungeon, not a completely maze-like one, so finding the way is a breeze.

But in the next room, a long single bridge confused Welt again.

"Viewers, we've probably arrived at a place where important treasures are stored, but I won't believe there's nothing on this single-plank bridge. Either there will be traps like swinging hammers, or traps like the war chariot just now."

This time, Welt got smart and didn't rush recklessly.

[Check the messages.]

[Check the bloodstains.]

"Yes, check the bloodstains and messages. These are all paths paved by predecessors with their lives. When we see too many bloodstains on the ground, we should pay attention. Just now, I didn't pay attention to the bloodstains in the flaming corridor, after all, it was too dark there."

Then Welt looked at the single-plank bridge. He found that both messages and bloodstains take time to load.

If you come here for the first time, you can only see messages with relatively more likes, and bloodstains are the most recent ones left behind.

Now that the game has just started, there aren't many players actually, to avoid affecting the players' experience, the messages and bloodstains that appear at once are not too many, but are randomly selected from the server.

However, if you stand in the same place for a while, you can see many other messages.

At this time, Welt saw a white shadow rushing over, and then it encountered something at the end of the bridge, who promptly started to roll frantically.

"There's no trap after all! So a monster encounter, isn't it? Since it's a monster, there's no problem! Can't I handle mere mob after defeating Margit the Fell Omen?"

Then Welt walked onto the single-plank bridge, and immediately heard two steady landing sounds.

One before and one after, both are Grafted Scions!

The familiar, bulky yet agile figure immediately raised Welt's blood pressure.

Watching this scene, Welt adjusted his glasses and said, "I, who always believe in human kindness, have finally seen what true human malice is today. I believe in the kindness of most humans, but in this game, I don't believe in the kindness of the game developer."

Bab 55: Chapter 55: Death Once, Overtime Ten Minutes

Double Chapter day!

---

Two Grafted Scions materialized.

Only after encountering these monsters did Welt realize that this creature was actually considered a minor threat!

No lengthy health bars, just relentless attacks.

After frantic rolling, Welt picked up the only hidden item on the altar and promptly perished.

There's no other reason; his health was simply too low to withstand two strikes.

Fortunately, the items provided on the altar were decent, increasing maximum health and energy by a percentage, and even boosting carrying capacity.

What does this signify?

It means that if skill points lean more towards health and energy, the benefits of this Talisman are quite significant.

Combined with the increased carrying capacity limit, if the ratio between personal load and limit decreases, perhaps it could surpass the line between light and medium loads.

Rolling speed increases, making the character more agile.

With such a Talisman, Welt felt slightly relieved.

"So, our next goal is to continue exploring. We saw messages under the bridge earlier; it seems that is the next path. The dungeon hasn't been fully explored yet; this reward is just the tip of the iceberg. We should be able to find better things ahead."

Welt's judgment wasn't off the mark.

Without good rewards, high-difficulty dungeons wouldn't attract many players.

Games rely on positive feedback; generally speaking, positive feedback must be sufficient, and soul-type games just prolong the process of obtaining positive feedback a bit longer.

"Are there many good things inside?"

Kiana also inquired.

"Yes, there's a very powerful Spirit Ash inside. With Spirit Ashes, you can summon a potent companion to help you through a relatively difficult beginner period."

"Wow~"

"But there's also a formidable enemy waiting for you at the deepest part of the dungeon. After all, there's always a boss at the end of the maze, right?"

"Ah~"

Kiana wasn't too eager to face those bosses.

After all, the monsters inside were ugly and very powerful, making her feel like she couldn't defeat them.

Sure enough, Bronie had created another very challenging game.

But with such exquisite craftsmanship and such a vast world, it brought much more shock to young Kiana than just a bit.

Others' childhoods may have consisted of adventures like Homu Adventure or Arahato.

But Kiana's childhood, under Bronie's influence, turned into adventures and Bronie's games.

It can be said to be much richer than most peers' childhoods.

Guided by stream comments and messages, Welt successfully destroying the War Chariot, and he ventured into the deepest part of the dungeon.

In the deepest part, there was a fogwall.

This was a sign of facing a boss.

"I knew it; this Haxxor Bunny definitely isn't so kind-hearted. There's a boss waiting for us at the end! What's next? It can't possibly be another Margit, right?"

If it weren't for this little statue allowing him to resurrect here after death, Welt's mentality would have really collapsed.

But upon careful consideration, he knew the route into this dungeon; going through it again wouldn't be that difficult.

It's just that the traps are a bit denser.

Then Welt controlled his character and pushed open the door to the final boss room.

And in a dim, cramped room, Welt saw a huge creature that resembled a slug and a lizard.

[Ulcerated Tree Spirit]

No, rather than saying the room was small, it's more accurate to say that the boss's body was too huge, filling the entire space, making the whole room look small.

It's like humorously sending a huge boss from the later stages into this room.

With its bloated figure, coupled with agile movements, it's like a blender's blade.

And he's just a piece of meat to be chopped.

Not surprisingly, after the first encounter, he would definitely die here.

But to be honest, Welt had become numb to death. He only now truly understood the essence of coffin backstepping.

Dying over and over again, then challenging once more.

[Use Spirit Ash]

[That's right, this is when you use the Spirit Calling Bell!]

[Miss Jellyfish is highly poisonous, and the Ulcerated Tree Spirit's movements aren't that fast, it's just that the space is a bit narrow.]

Viewers also began to offer suggestions.

And Welt only now realized that he could use the Spirit Calling Bell!

Earlier when he was exploring the dungeon, he had tried using the Spirit Calling Bell, but nothing happened.

Later, Welt concluded that this needed to be used in specific environments.

Now it seems that it can be used whenever defeating a boss.

This lifted Welt's spirits.

Having a teammate meant he was no longer alone, making the battles much easier, he presumed.

"Yay! He's really amazing!" Kiana cheered as Welt cleared the boss after his third death.

"Yeah, having a partner makes facing difficulties not so bad, right? Sometimes having a trusted companion can help you through many hardships. So, don't try to bear everything alone; sometimes, you can try to ask for help from your partner," Welt added.

"Mm!" Welt also received new loot at this point.

There were Golden Seeds and the Spirit Ashes of the Banished Knight Oleg.

"Golden Seeds, huh? They can actually increase the maximum number of Crimson Tears! As for the Spirit Ashes: Banished Knight Oleg, I don't know its effect, but Miss Jellyfish is really tough, making it easy for me to reach the second phase," Welt mused.

After receiving these items, Welt wasn't sure how powerful they were. Nevertheless, he knew he had to find a place to try them out.

But this Talisman was indeed useful.

After increasing his maximum health, he almost had to restart when fighting the Ulcerated Tree Spirit.

Of course, Runes was also generous. Returning to the Site of Grace Welt, he even leveled up several times.

But this was also because Welt's level wasn't very high.

Now, with positive feedback at its peak, the previous frustration was swept away.

"I'll never come back to this dungeon again, never again, get out of my memory!" Welt declared, looking at the familiar entrance, jumping down into another pool of poison, he developed a psychological shadow of this Fringefolks' Heroes Grave.

This place was more tormenting than fighting Margit.

Inside, you constantly tasted the malice from the game creator, and your heart was constantly teased by the game creator.

The key was still the final compensation, and the rewards were also very good.

At this point, there was laughter and cheers in the live broadcast room.

But Welt opened the game menu.

"Okay, everyone, let's stop here for today. Overall, Elden Ring is a milestone game. The cooperation between Schicksal Entertainment and Haxxor Bunny presents us with a new type of game that has never been seen before, whether it's the graphics, the sense of combat, or the gameplay, it's all very good. The only downside is that the difficulty might be a bit high, but with the Spirit Ash and able to summon a companion, the difficulty of fighting bosses will be easier."

Looking at the fact that he had broadcasted for such a long time for the first time, Welt was quite surprised.

He glanced at the earnings again.

Damn, this is much faster than making money by drawing comics!

Perhaps after sending part of this money back to Anti Entropy, he could still leave some for himself to enjoy.

As for what to do with the remaining money?

Of course, to buy Haxxor Bunny's games!

What else could he do?

Welt felt that he had no desires, so he would just find some interesting works to pass the time.

Managing Anti Entropy?

He wasn't familiar with that at all, it was better to draw comics.

After closing the live broadcast room, Welt lay back on the recliner and glanced at the clock next to him.

Then he looked at the knight sitting in front of the Site of Grace and the Lands Between.

How about... playing a little longer?

...

In Bishop Otto's room.

Miss Amber was staring intently at Otto's computer.

Inside the computer was the character Otto was controlling.

"Bishop, sir."

"Hmm?"

"I won't mention the thirty minutes you spent on character creation earlier. After all, we agreed that after the tenth death, you have to work for ten minutes for each death, but running around exploring the world like this, not dying even once, is this game still fun?"

Otto was quite narcissistic.

So he spent thirty minutes sculpting his own face.

And fortunately, the character creation system of this game was indeed very detailed, so he really succeeded in sculpting his face.

But after entering the game, he encountered love from the Grafted Scion, followed by education from the Tree Sentinel at the front door.

As soon as Otto got the horse, he didn't rush to Stormveil Castle.

Instead, he chose to ride the horse and run around the world.

Strange?

Can't two-legged creatures run faster than four-legged ones?

Are there monsters on the opposite side that can ride horses too?

It's one thing to catch up, but it's another thing to kill yourself.

Otto said he wanted to see how big the map of this game could be, so he kept walking eastward.

By the way, there would be markers for unlocking areas that were not unlocked on the map, so Otto unlocked quite a few maps along the way.

"Is this game not fun enough? The corrupt land, the brutal battlefield, the scavenging bird monsters, and the dying dragons, these scenes quietly depict the past stories of this land for me. The designs of these monsters are also quite interesting. I'm really enjoying myself!"

Okay, Amber now was a bit depressed.

"Alright, Bishop, if you really don't want to handle the work, you can tell me directly. The piled-up work is not a big problem."

Originally, Amber just had a temporary impulse to make a bet with Otto, requiring him to work properly for every death during the game.

Of course, there would be rest time, but piled-up work and handling it early were two different things.

But watching everyone die tragically in the live broadcast while Otto discovered a different way to play was unexpected.

The world in the game is really vast.

Just looking at the scenery can bring him joy that belongs to him alone.

"Hehe, don't think too much, Amber. Would I neglect work? But the answer sheets submitted by Haxxor Bunny to us are really good. It's just a pity that she rejected Schicksal's invitation."

"Do you want to send another invitation?"

"No, no need. If we forcibly bring her over, can she still make games? Let her have enough soil to grow. I look forward to the day when she creates a new game. And this Elden Ring is enough for me to play for a long time. The content in it can't be explored in just a short time."

Plus the learning cost of soul-type games, it's perfectly fine to play Elden Ring for over two hundred hours.

From dungeons to main quests.

And then to side quests.

The content of this game was so extensive that Otto couldn't predict what kind of game Bronie would make next.

Could it be that if he gave Haxxor Bunny the virtual space technology of Schicksal, could she still create a completely new world?

But this kind of thing was just a thought. If he gave equipment to Haxxor Bunny, it would definitely spread technology worldwide.

Spreading technology worldwide would excite Honkai.

Today, Schicksal is still recovering from the losses of the second eruption. Another Honkai Eruption is something Otto can't accept.

"Bishop Otto, please take care of yourself. Playing games and working for a long time are not good for your health."

"Mm, I know, but can you understand my mood? Haxxor Bunny created a vast world of swords and magic, filled with suffering. Maybe I can find a trace of inspiration from it, like inspiration to fight against the Honkai. After all, you see, there is an ultimate will behind this world. Is our world's Honkai also manipulated by such a similar will?"

Amber's face stiffened.

She shook her head helplessly.

"Well, then I wish Bishop Otto a happy time playing the game."

Amber left the office, clearly fed up with Otto's basement dwelling excuses.

And Otto just put on his headphones, clicked on the map, and teleported back to Church of Ella.

Starting from here, he would officially start the main quest.

...

"Cioara, I've bought the last New Year goods, and now it's time for me to show off my skills! Why do you have that expression?"

After bidding farewell to Kiana, Bronie bought some other fresh vegetables in the town market.

Yes, these vegetables were all used to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

And he also invited Siegfried and Kiana to come over on New Year's Eve.

But when Bronie returned home, he saw Cioara looking at him with a complex expression.

"You've made a good game."

"Uh... thanks?"

Bronie tilted his head.

"Are you really showing your true colors after making a big name for yourself? Who taught you to make the game so difficult? Why do monsters have healing detection, and why does the Margit the Fell Omen have a fast-slow blade combo attacks, also what is with that boatman with his instant kill attacks?"

It seems like this game has tortured Cioara quite a bit, otherwise why would she look so resentful?

"Isn't this a very cool design? This gives a real psychological duel feeling of swordplay, shouldn't melee weapons be like this? although the Mariner's OHKO attacks are a joke I set."

"You've hit the nail on the head, but this game is really great. It's the best game I've ever encountered. You did a great job."

"Thank you!"

Although Cioara's praise was a bit simpler, it was still quite useful to Bronie.

To be honest, it's quite good like this. All the overtime work over the months has paid off!
