Chapter 727: The Final Carnival of the Space-Time Rift
Since Bennett and Mika mistakenly entered the mysterious "Time Corridor", everything around them has become bizarre. At this moment, they are in a strange space, with a "time river" flowing with golden sand under their feet, and countless flickering "time fragments" appearing in the distance, floating in the air like a broken dream.
Bennett scratched his head, looking confused: "Mika, this place is really outrageous, how do we get out?" Mika held the map tightly in his hand, but his eyes were firm: "Bennett, don't panic, since we can get here, we can definitely find a way back."
At this moment, a transparent creature emitting a faint blue halo slowly rose from the gravel. It had no facial features, but made an ethereal voice: "Outsiders, you shouldn't disrupt the order of time. If you want to leave, you must pass three trials." Bennett jumped up and shouted, "What kind of trial is this? I'm not afraid of it!" Mikaela pulled at the corner of his clothes and whispered, "Listen first, don't be impulsive."
The first trial began, and they were teleported to an ancient castle. The castle was eerie and terrifying, and the murals on both sides of the corridor seemed to come alive, with countless ghosts floating out of the paintings and pouncing on the two with their fangs and claws bared. Bennett waved the worn-out long sword he carried with him and shouted, "Come on, come on, I'm not afraid of you little minions!" Mika quickly chanted a spell, summoning rays of light to repel the approaching ghosts.
In the heat of the battle, Bennett suddenly slipped and almost fell. Mika was quick to pull him up and shouted, "Be careful! There's something wrong with this castle!" It turned out that the ground had turned into a sticky swamp, and the more he struggled, the deeper he sank. Bennett was quick-witted and picked up a stone and threw it at the ghosts. While they were dodging, he and Mika jumped out of the swamp.
After finally getting rid of the ghost, the second trial came. This time, they came to a blazing desert. The sun above their heads was like a huge fireball, scorching the earth. Bennett wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered, "This damn place is so hot that it's killing me!" Mika discovered that there was a mysterious pyramid hidden in the desert, and the key to the trial seemed to be there.
They walked towards the pyramid with difficulty, and every step felt like stepping on a red-hot iron plate. Suddenly, a sandstorm hit, and Bennett and Mika quickly hid behind a huge rock. After the sandstorm, a group of huge sandworms emerged from the ground. Their bodies were as big as trucks, and they spewed hot sand from their mouths.
Bennett looked at the sandworms and swallowed his saliva: "Mika, what should we do?" Mika thought for a moment and said, "Let's go around to the back of the pyramid. There may be a weakness of the sandworms there." The two carefully bypassed the sandworm group and came to the back of the pyramid. Sure enough, there was a stone slab emitting a strange light.
As soon as Bennett touched the stone slab, a low roar came from the pyramid. The sandworms seemed to be enraged and rushed towards the pyramid frantically. Bennett and Mika took the opportunity to run into the pyramid, which was full of intricate passages. They turned left and right in the passages, and the sandworms chased them closely.
Just when he was about to despair, Bennett found a hidden secret door. He pushed the secret door open, and inside was a room full of treasures. The sandworms were wandering outside the door, but they couldn't get in. Bennett shouted excitedly: "Haha, it seems that this treasure is a reward for us!" But Mika frowned: "Bennett, don't be confused by the treasure, we have to find the exit quickly and complete the trial."
Bennett finally reacted and searched for clues in the room with Mika. Finally, they found a mechanism. After activating it, the wall of the room slowly rose up, revealing a staircase leading to the upper level. They went up the stairs and found that the third trial was waiting for them.
This time, they were facing a huge mirror, which reflected their deepest fears. Bennett saw himself accomplishing nothing and being laughed at by everyone, while Mika saw himself losing all his magical powers and becoming an ordinary person.
Bennett shouted at the mirror: "I'm not afraid of any of this! I have Mika. We have been through so much together and can overcome any difficulties!" Mika also plucked up the courage: "That's right, we can't be defeated by fear." As they said that, the two rushed towards the mirror together.
In an instant, the mirror shattered, and light shone everywhere. The transparent creature reappeared, smiling and saying, "You have passed the test. Your courage and unity are worthy of praise. Now, I can send you back."
Before Bennett and Mika could be happy, they were sucked into a vortex by a powerful force. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves back on the familiar street. The sun shone on them, and everything was so beautiful.
Bennett stretched and said, "Oh, it's been a tough journey, but we're finally back." Mika smiled and said, "Yeah, this adventure has made us grow a lot." After that, the two smiled at each other and walked towards home, ready to greet each new day.
