Chapter 442: Transcendent Game?(2-in-1)
The Nagelfal is about twenty meters long and has a huge gorgon's bow. Its flagpole was rotten, and the sails were tattered like a tramp's underwear, making one wonder if the ship would sink into the sea in the next second.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that the entire ship of the Nagelfal was shrouded in a layer of fog, and only the outer outlines could be seen, and nothing could be seen on board.
Ordinary people don't dare to get on this kind of boat, but Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi are also awakened people who are used to seeing wind and waves, so they naturally won't be afraid.
Taking advantage of the high tide, the Nagelfal docked, laying a layer of pedals in the mist.
The waves gently caressed the earth, and there was not a trace of human voice except for the sound of the wind and waves.
This scene is a little heart-wrenching.
Bai Xiaowen held Li Shuyi's hand and calmly stepped onto the pedal.
The two of them passed through a layer of fog and came to the ship.
"The boat was as shabby as I imagined. Li Shuyi whispered. Indeed, even the planks were dark and damp, as if they had been immersed in water for a long time.
Bai Xiaowen frowned and looked at the sailors going back and forth on the boat.
Sailors come from different populations, mainly humans and snake people. According to the history of the Kuroshio plane that Bai Xiaowen consulted, humans and snake people are opposites, but I didn't expect that on this ship, they actually got along in harmony and became a crew member.
Moreover, the appearance of these sailors is also somewhat peculiar, and many of them have dead white skin, with a slight feeling of swelling and folding, as if they have been soaked in water for a long time. On their shoulders and ears, there are shells, seaweed, and other things.
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes, he thought of a pirate movie he had seen in another time and space, there was a ghost ship in it, which was exactly the same as the appearance of this ship and its crew.
It happened that a sailor in the shape of a human was passing by, and Bai Xiaowen gently patted him on the shoulder: "Hey man, where is this ship heading?"
The human sailor turned his head.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi were surprised.
The pupils of this sailor's eyes were hollow and dilated, not at all like the eyes of a living person! He was patted on the shoulder by Bai Xiaowen, and turned his head, it was just an instinctive reaction, and his mouth was seawater mixed with saliva and flowed down from the corners of his mouth.
After instinctively turning his head, the sailor turned his head back somewhat mechanically and went back to work.
"Dead bodies?" Li Shuyi's ponytail was about to stand up.
"The ferry boat that shuttles between the two worlds of yin and yang......" Bai Xiaowen looked at the words on the invitation to the abyss party, thought about it and said, "It's not strange to have such a sailor...... Let's take a look at what clues there are on this ship. ”
After Bai Xiaowen finished speaking, he walked over to the gorgonal statue at the bow of the boat, and he had already discovered that in front of the banshee statue, there was a row of rectangular boxes erected, like a coffin standing up. Moreover, there were two tall dead sailors, standing in front of the box, seemingly guards.
However, when Bai Xiaowen stepped on the gangway at the bow of the boat, he was stopped. A dead sailor, expressionless, stopped in front of the two.
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"Warning: The Nagelfal has set sail and any guest who does not follow the rules of the game will be thrown overboard and disqualified from the Abyss Party. ”
"It seems that the rules of the spirit world do not allow us to snoop into the secrets of this ship," Bai Xiaowen said, "These dead sailors, I took a look at them with my insight talent, and their attributes are very weak, they are just monsters of high-level ordinary templates." I suspect that there must be a secret in the vertical coffin in front of the bow statue. ”
Li Shuyi said: "Since the rules of the spirit world have issued a warning, let's be patient for the time being. Wait until the main quest is triggered. ”
After Bai Xiaowen used the invitation, he did not immediately trigger the second main quest, but gave a code word to go to the Night Stalker Pier to take a boat. According to Bai Xiaowen's speculation, the second main quest should not be triggered until it reaches the target area.
In other words, they are still within the free time that comes with the first main quest, and both of them are safe until they accept the second main quest.
Like a ghost, the Nagelfal sailed silently across the black sea.
After about an hour of driving, the fog in front of me lifted, and the field of vision suddenly became empty. The ocean under the dawn and morning light is quiet and vast, and the water and sky are the same color.
"Look!" Li Shuyi suddenly exclaimed, "What's that?"
On the surface of the sea ahead, the current suddenly became turbulent, forming a huge whirlpool with a diameter of thousands of meters!
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"You've come to your target sea: the Shimmer Abyss. ”
"[Main Quest: The Secret of the Latent Labyrinth] opens. ”
[Objective: Open the central chamber of the Lauteron Labyrinth to obtain the Prophecy Tablet.] 】”
"[Difficulty: Data disorder, cannot be calculated]"
"[Task Duration: Data Disorder, Uncalculated]"
"[Quest Reward: Data Disorder, Uncalculable]"
Without waiting for Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi to come to their senses, another prompt message suddenly appeared:
"[Main Quest: Transcendent Game] opens. ”
[Objective: Join the Guardian Sect/Blasphemer faction and win the Transcendent Game.] 】”
"[Difficulty: S]"
"[Mission Period: 10 Days]"
[Quest Reward: Wishing Fountain used times x1.] 】”
"How can you brush out two main quests at the same time?" Li Shuyi said in surprise, "and...... Both main quests are weird, which one should I choose?"
"These two main quests should not conflict, there is no option to choose one or the other!" Bai Xiaowen frowned and said, "Compared to it, I think the latter main quest is a little weirder, what is called 'Wishing Fountain Usage Times', no matter how you look at it-"
Suddenly, the gorgon statue on the bow of the ship glowed with a strange purple light.
For a moment, Bai Xiaowen had a feeling that his soul was out of his body, as if there was a powerful attraction that forcibly pulled his consciousness out of his body.
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"You have been affected by the abyssal gaze, the will judgment has failed, and the soul consciousness is stripped ......"
At the same time, there was a sharp stinging pain in Bai Xiaowen's left eye, and the red light in his eyes suddenly became hot, like a magic pupil burning with flames!
"Interference from unknown factors, ...... in data disorder"
"Unknown factors interfere, 100,000 psionic points will be deducted, and you can escape the influence of the abyssal gaze and leave the Kuroshio plane world. Yes/No?"
Bai Xiaowen gritted his teeth, looked at Li Shuyi on the side, and used insight.
Li Shuyi stood on the bow of the boat like a stake, her face was still beautiful, but her eyes were devoid of their brilliance, like a white jade statue.
Behind Li Shuyi's name, a state suddenly appeared - the separation of the soul and body.
[Soul Separation: The target is in a state of suspended animation, which will last for seven natural days.] After the suspended animation state ends, if the soul consciousness does not return to the body, it dies directly. 】
"......"
Bai Xiaowen's facial muscles twitched, he forced himself to calm down, and his eyes returned to the two main quest options, thinking about this situation and the strangeness of the two main quests.
After a fraction of a second, Bai Xiaowen's consciousness focused on the option of the previous spiritual rule prompt message "Deduct 100,000 psionic points and leave the Black Tide Plane World", and directly chose no!
He took a deep breath and raised his slightly trembling left hand to cover his left eye.
His right eye, staring at the bow of the gorgon, which glowed with a strange red light, came back to him with a terrible feeling of being stripped of his soul.
Bai Xiaowen spit out the last two words in his mouth, and his low voice seemed to murmur:
"Come on......"
Bai Xiaowen's soul was stripped out in an instant. At the last moment, he "saw" the two dead sailors open the lid of the coffin erected and stuffed his and Li Shuyi's bodies into the coffin.
The field of view quickly zoomed away, and the Nagelfal plunged into the depths of the maelstrom.
......
When Bai Xiaowen woke up again, he found himself in a magnificent hall at first sight.
Looking up, you can see a golden dome, a chain hanging down, and candles flickering overhead.
In the center of the hall was a huge round table, and a total of twelve people wearing black cloaks, including Bai Xiaowen, sat around the round table. Directly behind each of them, there is an upright coffin, on which are carved reliefs of animals, chickens and dogs, monkeys and pigs, and so on.
In the center of the giant round table is a clear pool, in which there are pieces of colorful stones, and the faint light reflected through the pool water forms a rainbow, looming.
Bai Xiaowen checked his status for the first time, he tried to open the property panel, but got a prompt:
"You're in a state of soul separation and can't open the properties panel. ”
Bai Xiaowen was not discouraged, he looked through the latest reminders of the spirit world rules.
"You are affected by the abyssal gaze, and your soul is separated. While in the Soul Separation state, you cannot attack, use skills, or use items. Please return to your body within 7 calendar days, after which you will die directly. ”
"You've entered the Shimmer Abyss: the Latent Labyrinth. ”
"You automatically accepted the main quest: The Transcendental Game. ”
Bai Xiaowen quickly checked the mission information and found that of the two main quests triggered, only one was automatically accepted, while the other task "The Secret of the Latent Labyrinth" had been in an unaccepted state, the yes/no selection box was flashing, and the display time would disappear in dozens of minutes.
Bai Xiaowen's consciousness chose to accept the main quest "The Secret of the Latent Labyrinth".
After doing this, Bai Xiaowen raised his head and glanced at the other eleven sitting at the round table in the hall, the black-robed cloaked man who was exactly the same as him.
When he saw a black-robed cloaked man opposite, Bai Xiaowen's heart suddenly throbbed, and he could clearly feel that it was Li Shuyi. Or rather, that's the soul of Li Shuyi.
On the back of Li Shuyi, the coffin relief is a motif of a rat and a Roman numeral "1".
Bai Xiaowen looked back at himself, and the relief of the coffin behind him was a pattern of a sheep, and the Roman numeral was "8".
Suddenly, in the center of the round table, a white light rose, and with this light, a grand voice echoed in the hall:
"The awakening should have been successful. Welcome to the Abyss Party and take part in the Transcendental Game. ”
"The winning side of the game will all get a chance to use the Wishing Fountain. ”
"Most of you have passed multiple rounds of elimination before you sit here for the final battle. You should all know the rules of the Transcendental Game. ”
"Of course, for the sake of fairness, I will transmit the specific rules of the game of the Transcendent to your consciousness. ”
A stream of information poured into Bai Xiaowen's mind. Bai Xiaowen's face under the cloak quickly became exciting.
This transcendent game is called "Resurrection Dragon".
The first is the background of this game.
Once upon a time, under the protection of the guardian dragon, the world was at peace. The people worshipped the guardian dragon and established a "guardian sect".
Later, the guardian dragon fell and the devil invaded. Able to incarnate in human form, the devil who is good at sowing discord and quickly plunging the mainland into war.
The cultists and priests of the Guardian Sect, armed with the dragon's relics, have made their way to the Latent Labyrinth to prepare for a sacred ritual to resurrect the Guardian Dragon. If the dragon is resurrected, the devil will face destruction.
However, the secret operations of the Guardian Sect were detected by the devil and infiltrated the team. If the resurrection ritual is interfered with by the devil, not only will the ritual be in vain, but the devil will desecrate the remains of the guardian dragon and absorb the power of the guardian dragon, and there will be no hope for the mainland.
Therefore, the guardian sect must first find out and eliminate all blasphemers, that is, demons, before they can perform sacred rituals. Translated in game terms, the victory condition for the "Guardian Faction" is to destroy all the "blasphemers".
However, the ritual of resurrecting the dragon requires at least one priest to guide and one ordinary believer to provide pure faith power to complete. If all the priests die, or if all the lay people die, the resurrection dragon ritual is declared impossible, and the devil will desecrate the remains of the guardian dragon - in other words, the victory of the "blasphemous camp" is either the elimination of all priests, or the destruction of all ordinary believers.
The game is divided into "night" and "day".
The Night is the home of the Blasphemous faction, and every night, the Desecrators can get together to discuss and kill a party member (including the Blasphemer committing suicide).
During the day, the home of the guardian faction, and every day, everyone in the squad gathers to take turns speaking and discussing, voting on a suspicious member to eliminate him.
It should be noted that the good people who guard the camp only know their identities, and they don't know each other. This also gives the devil room to fish in troubled waters, and even sow discord and frame frames, and the one who is eliminated by voting during the day may be a "good person" who guards the camp.
"This transcendent game...... So familiar?"
