Illusionist in American comics

Chapter 175 The Mystery of the Castle



In the Colosseum, as the shadow behind Martin Lee was eliminated, everyone was freed from the negative energy.

Jessica shook her head, and when she regained consciousness, she saw Luke's helpless eyes. After looking carefully, Jessica found that she was pressing on Luke.

Standing up in a panic, Jessica said sheepishly.

"Luke, I'm sorry."

"You know, I can't control myself..."

But Luke didn't say much, he just stood up and hugged Jessica.

Everything is unspoken.

"I think you should have a way for us to leave."

Others were apologizing to each other to ease the embarrassment of just losing control of their emotions. Only San Buran came to Martin Lee.

"How did you tell?"

Physically exhausted, Martin Lee could still resist, but the weakness deep in his soul had made it impossible for him to stay awake.

San Buran's palm was so heavy that the evil personality in Martin Lee's body almost disappeared.

"intuition"

San Zan held the opponent's hand and after absorbing some of his true energy, Martin Lee's face regained some rosiness.

"Your intuition was right."

Taking out a key from his waist, Martin Lee looked ahead and said.

"I can't see through Sir Silver"

"His evil has no purpose and no direction."

"It seems to exist just to do evil. Pure evil has created a terrifying existence."

"If you can defeat him, I'll make up for the belated thanks."

The key rose into the air, and then a door opened behind Luke and others. On the other side of the door was a complicated street.

Harsh wails and screams can be heard on the streets at any time, as well as the sound of rapid running.

"Be careful of the dark shadows on the streets. This is my last advice."

After saying that, Martin Lee's figure had disappeared.

Just like his fabricated life experience, the fate of stowaways is to be deported to their place of origin, and Jiuyou does not welcome outsiders.

Perhaps one day in the future, he will appear somewhere in New York.

In the cold castle, Tony looked at the door of the room in front of him and thought slowly.

The room door is very ordinary, just like an ordinary guest room door, but the difference is the text on it.

[What is Tony Stark’s favorite food? 】

What is his favorite food? Under other circumstances, Tony would undoubtedly choose cheeseburger, but if it was in this weird castle, Tony would be a little hesitant.

After all, if you think about it carefully, the above just mentioned Tony Stark, and there are many people with the same name in the world. If the puzzle were changed to what Iron Man likes to eat, Tony would immediately answer that answer.

Looking around, Tony saw no other clues, but just as he was about to leave, Tony thought of the portrait downstairs.

The portrait of Baron Sean features a bunch of grapes.

“The solution to a puzzle requires making bold assumptions and avoiding pitfalls.”

"I didn't think there would be such a simple question waiting for me"

"Maybe this is just a little trick to deceive people."

"So the answer to this question should be grapes"

Waiting is painful, especially when you don't have much confidence. Tony gave the answer with a try mentality, and the door responded.

Bang, the door opened, and inside was a well-furnished room with food, drinking water, and even a self-defense weapon.

The correct answer was also given on the wall of the room.

When Tony took a step back and looked at the door again, he found that the original puzzle had changed. Tony Stark's name disappeared like ink, and Baron Sean was finally revealed below.

"Hey, what a boring cover-up."

"I have been deceived countless times by someone."

When it comes to the baptism of illusions, Tony has endured the most. When he is bored, Lu Xixian will always use illusions to tease Tony.

This also allowed Tony to understand many characteristics of illusions, of course, they were just some minor illusions.

After simply eating some food to replenish his strength, Tony filled some water in the sealed container next to him and tied it around his waist with a sheet. He looked at the weapon in the corner.

It was a holy sword of physics, commonly known as a crowbar.

After a short rest, Tony walked towards the other doors and began to look for a way to leave.

According to Tony's guess, the way to leave may be behind these doors, or at the top of the castle, but no matter what the situation, it is necessary to open these doors safely.

If you want to open the door safely, you need to answer the puzzle on the door correctly.

After answering two mathematical puzzles, Tony received two more pieces of equipment, a pair of sunglasses and a cloak.

The sunglasses can see through the ink stains covered by the door and see the real puzzle, while the cloak is used to avoid the disaster of escaping the room.

"Disaster?"

Noticing that there was still danger, Tony began to be careful when answering puzzles. He skipped some puzzles for which he was not sure of the answer.

But just as Tony was about to leave the room, there was a sound of rapid breathing outside, and at the same time there was the sound of wind whistling and shaking.

Slowly opening the door, Tony saw a familiar figure through a gap.

"Banner!"

"Tony!"

Hurrying to open the door, Tony clenched the "Holy Sword" in his hand, and while calling Banner to come in quickly, he saw the figure chasing Banner.

It was a skinless red flesh monster. It had a pair of featherless wings, but it could fan out with howling wind.

Wherever the wind passed, some buildings were slowly corroding.

But the opponent's speed was a bit slow, and because of this, Banner escaped.

With a click, the door closed, and Banner squatted down tiredly. After ten minutes of relief, he took the water from Tony's hand.

Taking a slow sip, Banner felt like he was alive.

The two met, and Banner also told Tony what happened to him.

Like Tony, Banner's belongings disappeared, and not only that, he couldn't even use the Hulk's power.

But with the help of good wisdom, Banner also solved the puzzles of several rooms, but because he did not have the experience of suffering from illusions like Tony.

When answering one of the puzzles, I was confused by the text above and got the wrong answer.

As a result, he released the monster that had just been chasing him.

"This castle has five floors, and I came down from the third floor."

"If you go by your experience, the direction to leave should be at the top."

Banner took out a map and placed it on the ground. When he heard Tony say that the door to the first floor was closed, Banner set his direction on the upper floor.

"It should be correct to infer based on the current intelligence."

"But we also need to complete more puzzles so that we can get more help."

Now, except for the crowbar in Tony's hand, the two of them had no means of defense at all.

Although Banner also solved the puzzles in several rooms, the biggest gain was this map, and the rest was damaged in the chase.

Banner is still unable to use the Hulk's power, which also rules out the possibility of violent demolition.

So after a short rest, the two of them put on the cloak Tony had obtained and walked to other rooms.

Slowly push upward at the same time.
