Chapter 934 The Truth of the Trial and New Challenges

"What? Emotional test?" Zhang Meng's eyes widened in disbelief. "I'm showing off my humor skills here, and it's actually considered part of the test?"

"That's right." The monster nodded slowly, with a hint of inexplicable teasing in his eyes. "Your actions with candy let us see human emotions, but this is only the first level."

"The first level? Do you mean there are more to come?" Qing'er asked calmly.

"Of course." The monster's voice was still low, "Next, the real trial will test your wisdom, courage, and unity."

"Wisdom, courage, and unity?" Zhang Meng thought, "That sounds great! I like these challenges the most!"

"Listen, the trial you are about to face is not just an individual one, but a team one." The monster raised his head and looked directly at them. "You must work together to solve the problem within a limited time before you can move on."

"This sounds a bit difficult." Qiqi raised his hand and touched his chin, "But as long as we work together, we should be able to handle it!"

"That's right!" Zhang Meng was full of confidence. "Besides, I have infinite creativity and wisdom, and I can definitely solve all problems!"

"Okay, then calm down first." Qing'er smiled and shook her head, "Anyway, we must be prepared to meet this challenge."

"Before that, you must first understand the rules of the trial." The monster continued, "Each level will have different challenges, and you must complete them before you can move on."

"What is the content of the challenge?" Zhang Meng asked curiously.

"The first challenge is to solve the puzzle." The monster said slowly, "You need to find five clues hidden in the maze. Only by solving these puzzles can you open the door to the next level."

"Solve a puzzle?" Qing'er's eyes sparkled. "This is quite interesting."

"This is a piece of cake for me!" Zhang Meng clapped his hands, "But we need to know the content of the puzzle."

"The puzzles are in every corner of the maze. Only by finding them can we solve them." The monster replied calmly, "Next, are you ready?"

"Be ready at any time!" Zhang Meng responded with a firm look in his eyes.

"Okay, let's start." The monster's body slowly retreated and disappeared into the shadows, leaving behind a stone door that gradually opened.

"Go ahead and find the clues!" Qing'er said excitedly, "Let's solve the mystery!"

"Let's go!" Zhang Meng rushed out first, "I'm a natural puzzle solver!"

"Don't just think about yourself, teamwork is the most important thing." Qing'er followed closely behind, looking a little nervous.

"Let's walk faster, this place is so complicated!" Qiqi also quickened his pace and followed closely behind.

After walking through the narrow passage, they finally came to a seemingly open area. The surrounding walls were covered with strange symbols, and the air was filled with an ancient atmosphere.

"Is this... where the puzzle lies?" Qing'er looked around.

"Look at these symbols, they seem to be related to ancient languages." Qiqi whispered, "We must be careful, there may be a mystery here."

"Let me take a look!" Zhang Meng walked forward and touched the symbols on the wall. "These symbols are too simple. I can crack them!"

"Okay, don't be so smart." Qing'er gestured, "Let's see if there are any clues first."

"Oh..." Zhang Meng was unwilling, but decided to follow Qing'er's arrangements and observe his surroundings carefully.

"I think every symbol here could be a clue." Qiqi thought intently, "We must find specific combinations to solve these puzzles."

At this moment, the symbols on the wall began to flash, and a deep voice sounded: "Welcome to the first level of the trial. Solve these puzzles to enter the next level."

"Sure enough, there is a mechanism!" Zhang Meng looked excited and immediately felt around on the wall. "I think as long as I touch all these symbols, I can find the answer!"

"Slow down!" Qing'er quickly pulled him back, "Doing this will only make the situation more chaotic."

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Meng frowned slightly.

"We have to find out the meaning of each symbol first, and then try to combine them." Qing'er said, "If there is anything you need help with, I can also try to interpret it."

"Good idea!" Qiqi nodded in agreement, "Let's try to find a few clues first."

Several people began to walk around the wall, interpreting the complex symbols one by one, trying to figure out the logic. At this moment, Qing'er's eyes were suddenly attracted by a flashing symbol.

"There's an unusual symbol here!" Qing'er pointed, "This symbol is completely different from the others. It looks like a hint!"

"Really?" Zhang Meng ran over and looked at it carefully.

"Yes, look carefully, there is a small crack next to the symbol." Qing'er added, "Maybe this is a hidden mechanism."

"Let me try!" Zhang Meng's heart moved, and he quickly reached out and pressed it.

"Click!" There was a crisp sound, and the moment the button was pressed, several rays of light immediately lit up on the wall, and the entire space suddenly became bright.

"Wow, it actually works!" Qing'er was stunned.

"See, I told you! I am a natural mechanism cracker!" Zhang Meng raised his head proudly.

"Look over there!" Qiqi pointed to the other side of the wall. "There are new symbols over there. It seems to be another puzzle."

"Let's go and take a look!" Qing'er said, running quickly towards the new symbol.

As they got closer, they found a halo next to the new symbol, and a text appeared inside: "To move forward, you need to unlock it with four answers."

"Four answers?" Zhang Meng frowned. "What kind of game is this?"

"Obviously, we need to find four answers," Qing'er analyzed, "but what the answers are may be related to the previous symbols."

"Don't worry, let's find out the meaning of these symbols first." Qiqi said, "Each symbol may be the key."

"Let's get started!" Zhang Meng said excitedly, "Look at me!"

After some effort, the three finally found some clues and gradually figured out the puzzle.

"The first answer is about courage." Qing'er concluded, "The meaning of each symbol is related to the decision we make during the adventure."

"The second answer, I think, is wisdom." Qiqi continued, "In our expedition, the ability to solve problems is very important."

"There are two more answers." Zhang Meng concentrated on thinking, pondering in his heart, "I think... the third answer is unity!"

"Unity? This is your usual slogan." Qing'er smiled slightly.

"Yes, only by uniting can we overcome difficulties." Zhang Meng nodded confidently.

"The last one..." Qiqi hesitated for a moment, "I think it should be love, as part of the team's mutual support."

"Love?" Qing'er smiled softly, "That's a good answer."

"Then, let's try this combination." Zhang Meng walked forward with a determined look, "Unlock these answers!"

Just as he was about to touch the halo, suddenly, the symbols around him began to flash wildly, and the whole space seemed to be caught in a tense atmosphere.

"What happened?" Qiqi asked nervously, "Did our answer get it wrong?"

"No!" Qing'er clenched her fists. "This is a test for us. Stay calm!"

"Calm down? How can I calm down?" Zhang Meng's eyes were filled with anxiety. "Quick! Let me try again!"

At this moment, the halo suddenly emitted a dazzling light, accompanied by a deafening roar, and the surrounding walls began to tremble, as if echoing their choice.

"Hurry! Unlock it with your answers!" Qing'er shouted, and pressed the halo with Zhang Meng and Qiqi.

"The answer is courage, wisdom, unity and love!" Zhang Meng said firmly.

As they shouted, the light on the halo suddenly surged, illuminating the entire maze space, and the surrounding walls began to collapse, revealing a huge passage.

"Success!" Qing'er smiled excitedly, "We solved the puzzle!"
