Chapter 505: The Choice of Main Mission
After a moment, Wang Zixuan, with a pale face, took a deep breath and broke the silence first.
"When I saw NPCs surrounding us in the guesthouse, I knew something must be wrong here."
Xiao Jin glanced at her coldly and said nothing.
Shao Siyuan thought for a moment and whispered, "The black shadow is something sealed by a spell. It should not be in the same group as the villagers, but why did it attack us?"
"Because..." Xiao Jin looked at Feng Hao, who had regained consciousness a little, with cold eyes: "It also needs a 'substitute'."
"That makes sense."
Seeing that Xiao Jin was no longer paying attention to her and was still talking about other topics, Wang Zixuan's eyes flashed with anger.
This is simply... too much!
But after seeing Xiao Jin's strength, Wang Zixuan could only hold her anger in her heart.
Ok!
The dungeon boss was just released in the morning, and in the afternoon the NPC was forced to change his face.
These people are so good at getting into trouble. Can't they just wait patiently for the last day of sacrifice?
-
Since the ghost disappeared, the people in the ancestral hall are no longer threatened.
Today is the fifth day of the game. After being chased all night, Xiao Jin and his companions can finally take a breath. They decide to take turns sleeping, and those who are not asleep will be responsible for keeping watch.
Everyone has storage space, so they don't have to worry about anything. Some people take out their tents, some take out their sleeping bags.
Xiao Jin also crawled into the tent and fell asleep within a minute of lying down.
Four hours later, Shao Siyuan called Xiao Jin to get up and take over the shift. She folded up the tent directly. Four hours of sleep was enough for Xiao Jin.
So Xiao Jin jumped onto the roof of the ancestral hall and looked at the village at the foot of the mountain from afar.
Looking down, the mountain looked no different from when they came up.
There were neither teams of villagers searching everywhere nor evil spirits shouting and digging deep into the ground; in other words, everything was so peaceful.
It seems that her guess was correct. If there was no major event, the villagers would not come to the ancestral hall on their own initiative.
Everyone slept until the afternoon.
In the middle of the shift, Xiao Jin called Wang Zixuan to take over. After that, she didn't sleep, but sat aside to eat.
What a joke, she's not made of iron either.
The greater the power, the hungrier Xiao Jin will get.
Xiao Jin found a clean place, moved out the small table he had used before, rummaged through the space, and quickly found a few dishes.
Black pepper beef ribs, stir-fried asparagus, steamed pork with rice flour, and cold jellyfish salad. The staple dishes include white flour buns and scallion oil noodles, and finally a glass of iced coconut water.
Feng Hao was awakened by the smell of meat.
When he woke up, his face was still a little pale, which was the sequelae of the recent injury. But for Feng Hao, what was the point of being injured or not, how could he have attractive flesh?
"Slurp~ Ahem, you..." Feng Hao glanced at Xiao Jin secretly.
Xiao Jin said nothing, but waved his hand and three large incubators appeared on the ground.
Feng Hao smiled very politely and quickly carried the box to the side: "Thank you, thank you, you are my second parents."
The fragrance also woke up Sui Feng and others.
Sui Feng and Shao Siyuan strangled Feng Hao's neck and said, "You kid... want to eat alone, right?"
But eating is eating, seeing Wang Zixuan and the other two waking up, Feng Hao has no habit of sharing. Wang Zixuan also knows that she is not popular, so she eats the lunch box in the storage space by herself.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Jin leaned back in a small chair and took out the notebook he had obtained from the rotten corpse.
She had made some new discoveries and planned to verify them.
"Click."
As they were watching, the curled up skeleton in the corner suddenly made a crisp sound. Everyone who heard the sound paused and their bodies tensed up instantly.
This is the muscle memory left over from countless life and death situations.
When Xiao Jin looked up, he saw a wisp of green smoke coming out of the skull's eye sockets.
Then, the notebook in Xiao Jin's hand flipped to a certain page in the middle, and dark red words appeared as if they had been burned by fire:
[The altar on the top of the mountain, breaking their hearts and bones, can end reincarnation]
The skeleton made a creaking sound, and the rotten finger bones suddenly rose up and pointed at the mural behind the altar.
In the painting, on the top of a mountain shrouded in clouds and mist, one can vaguely see a stone platform with seven oil lamps on it - exactly the appearance of soul-guiding lamps.
There is actually a hidden method in here to destroy the evil god sacrifice!
"Xiao Jin!" Sui Ying on the other side suddenly screamed.
When Xiao Jin came to his senses, he saw that the blood words on the notebook began to melt, and finally turned into tiny red worms crawling towards the back of Xiao Jin's hand.
She quickly threw away the notebook, and the knife in her hand flashed. The next second, the red worms exploded into blood beads, fell to the ground with a sizzling sound, and a large amount of white smoke rose.
"Get out of the way, it's a corrosive liquid."
Xiao Jin took three or two steps back, and when he raised his hand, an explosion-proof shield appeared in his hand, blocking some sporadic blood splashes.
However, due to the high intensity of corrosion, a large hole appeared in front of the explosion-proof shield.
"You all saw the words just now!" said the male player with the severed finger after a while.
"If you weren't blind, you should be able to see it." Feng Hao argued.
Sui Ying looked at Xiao Jin: "So...are we going to disrupt the sacrifice?"
"But our mission is to participate in the evil god festival on the seventh day. What if we really ruin it and fail to complete the main mission?" The male player with earrings immediately rejected this option.
Shao Siyuan: “Not necessarily.”
He looked at the male player with earrings and said, "I don't believe you don't know what kind of existence we will encounter if we really participate in the sacrifice.
Do you really have the faith to survive in His hands?"
"But... the main mission..." The other party hesitated.
How could he not know Shao Siyuan's worries.
However, if the progress of the main mission is disrupted, they may not be able to return to the landing point.
In the past, there were players in the dungeon who acted recklessly, resulting in the main quest not being completed and being stuck in the dungeon forever.
He definitely didn't want to be abandoned in this terrible world.
The concerns of earring players are also the concerns of everyone.
Wang Zixuan looked embarrassed, while Sui Feng, Feng Hao and others all looked at Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin: ???
What are you all looking at me for?
Shao Siyuan: "Ahem~ What do you think we should do? Should we go or not?"
Facing everyone's questions, Xiao Jin only saw trust in their eyes, as if as long as she mentioned an option, they would take action immediately.
In that case, she won't waste any more time.
"go with!"
After Xiao Jin gave this answer, everyone had different expressions.
The two male players frowned, seemingly disagreeing. However, Shao Siyuan and the others understood clearly, as if they had expected Xiao Jin to say so.
After thinking about it, Wang Zixuan was actually more inclined to this answer, so she was not very resistant.
Sui Feng made the decision: "Let's hurry up. If we get there a minute earlier, maybe we can leave the dungeon earlier."
Just leave.
Adhering to the principle of minority obeying the majority, even if the two players were unwilling, they had to follow the main force.
