Chapter 67 Mermaid and Murloc
The departure time this time is still set at midnight.
Mainly because he still felt that as a dragon, he had to maintain some sense of mystery.
It’s actually pure social terror…
The princess had already started packing her luggage, which made him speechless for a while.
Although this time I may go out for a long time, I don’t need to bring seven or eight sets of clothes with me at all...
It was probably close to midnight when the princess placed a pile of things about the same height as Yan Mu in front of him.
"Isn't this too much..."
I feel a little headache. Although my system backpack can hold these things, I can't sense the system panel after leaving the maze, and naturally I can't take it out...
The only option available when leaving the maze is to arrange a portal. A space ring would be fine, but he didn't have it...
Only equipment templates are sold in the mall, and equipment added to the maze is not sold.
I have a headache...
"Not much, there are tents, sleeping bags, food, etc..."
Yan Mu was helpless: "There's no need to bring food. I can take out a lot at any time."
"All right..."
Yan Yun secretly thought it was a pity that her cooking skills had improved a lot during this period, and she still wanted to go out and show off her skills to Little Shota...
I opened the package casually and found that nearly one-third of it was "special" ingredients produced in Demon King City.
It wasn't until he took them all out that he breathed a sigh of relief...
"All right."
After retying the package, Yan Yun lifted it up and spoke excitedly:
"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"
......
This time the route still starts from Hexi City. When it reaches the passage, it transforms into a human form and walks through the tunnel.
It was very lively outside the rift, and it didn't look like it was midnight at all.
However, the princess who came out was a little confused. It had only been less than two months. Why did this camp have a dock?
Isn’t this Hexicheng?
But looking at the guild station, it is indeed Hexi City's Adventurer's Guild...
Until the two of them left the camp, Yan Yun was still a little confused.
Unexpectedly, Hexicheng was so willing to spend a lot of money this time. In order to facilitate the journey, he directly opened a canal.
Although she didn't know how City Lord Hexi managed to open such a long canal in more than a month...
But she silently gave the city lord a thumbs up.
The empire needs courtiers like this who are decisive and don't procrastinate when things happen!
Yan Mu once again switched to the dragon form and grabbed the luggage with his claws, while the princess skillfully climbed onto the dragon's back.
Then he casually patted the scales under his body, signaling that he should sit down.
The dragon flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
Around dawn, we flew over the sea and finally saw land.
Yan Yun opened her mouth to explain at the right time.
"This is the scope of the Bauhinia Empire, but there are only three cities on this island."
Looking down at the three cities from a high altitude, Yan Mu thought for a moment and placed an entrance between the three cities.
It's here now, it would be a pity not to let go.
And the location is really good.
There are obvious traces of frequent movement around it. As expected, this crack will be discovered soon.
Immortal Labyrinth.
The Qingfeng team returned from the fourth floor to the third floor, looking for new special monsters added to the rift along the way.
According to the adventurers, it was a fat pigman six meters tall.
This pig can drop a pretty good shield.
Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, I didn't see any shadow.
Lililu walked at the front, casually chopping the bushes on the roadside.
"Bang!"
"what?"
When everyone heard the sound of metal hitting, they immediately looked curiously at the place where Lililu slashed.
In the bushes is a strange-looking square treasure chest, the color of which almost blends in with the surrounding environment.
Moreover, the entire treasure chest is not large in size, and it is very difficult to find it hidden in the bushes.
Gu Qingfeng took out the Immortal Maze Illustrated Book he received from the guild and compared the quality of the treasure box through the illustrated book...
"Well, the picture book says that the quality is average and there is a one-third chance of getting a special item."
Everyone's eyes lit up, treasure chests of medium and high quality were rare.
At present, the vast majority of treasure chests are either made of wood or stone. Only a few such obviously metallic boxes are found in the entire camp in a day...
"I'm going, I'm going!"
Lililu shouted excitedly, took two steps forward, grabbed the top cover of the treasure box, and turned it over gently. A golden light pierced everyone's eyes and they could not open their eyes.
When the golden light dissipated, inside the treasure chest was a strange talisman and a bottle of magic potion.
There were still a lot of gold coins, but everyone was attracted by the strange talisman.
Lililu took the amulet in her hand and looked at it carefully.
It doesn't look like the item recorded in the illustrated book.
"Is there any identification potion? Let's see what this is..."
"Yes, I don't know if it's enough."
Saint-level shield warrior Longta put down his backpack, rummaged through it, took out a small half bottle of identification potion and handed it to Lilylu.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Lililu carefully dripped a small drop of...
Immediately everyone's faces turned dark. Good guy, a small drop of attributes came out. How rubbish is this!
The higher the quality of the item, the more identification potion is consumed. Obviously this strange talisman is very rubbish.
[Sea Dislike: After wearing it, you will become a landlubber, and the chance of fishing success will be reduced by 999%. 】
"..." Everyone was silent. Why is there such equipment?
So this is another useless piece of equipment?
The last item seems to be a strange crystal ball called "Sun Pearl".
But looking at the bottle of magic potion in the treasure chest, everyone felt much better.
Nowadays, magic potion is considered a rare item.
The skill damage in the maze has been reduced a lot, but the magic power consumption has not been reduced at all.
But the silky smooth experience of playing whatever comes to mind without chanting makes magicians who are accustomed to the rift skill unable to stop.
It has become the norm that the magic cannot keep up.
On Yan Mu's side, after taking off from the new entrance, he passed through a large forest again and returned to the sea.
Yan Yun on the dragon's back looked at the blue sea in trance.
I heard that more than three hundred years ago, sea routes were still a very mainstream mode of transportation.
But until one day, a large number of marine monsters appeared on the sea that attacked merchant ships, and their power was very terrifying.
It was not until nearly two decades later that the mainland found the reason.
A powerful rift appeared on the seabed of the Sea of Divine Punishment. Without intervention from the strong men on the mainland, the monsters on the opposite side soon occupied all the sea areas of Qiling Continent...
Fortunately, the invaders this time were only ocean monsters, and their intelligence was not very high.
As long as you don't enter their territory, there is no danger in staying on land.
This is also the only super rift where information is open to everyone.
"arrive!"
Hearing Yan Mu's cute voice, Yan Yun noticed a small black dot appearing in the field of vision ahead.
I was immediately speechless. What do you call this?
"I'm going to speed up!"
Yan Mu cheered, and Yan Yun felt that all the scenery in his sight was stretched into a straight line.
When he recovered again, he had already appeared above Poseidon Island.
"..."
Yan Yun could only forcefully swallow the words that were about to blurt out.
Due to the high altitude of the flight, most of the islands in her field of vision were blocked by the dragon's body.
But you can still vaguely see that the architectural style on the island is obviously not that of the Mermaid Empire, but more primitive and barbaric.
"Have you felt the mermaid's breath?"
Yan Yun asked.
Withdrawing his eyes that were darting around, Yan Mu closed his eyes and let go of his senses.
At this time, on Poseidon Island, the deep-sea murlocs who had been drinking and chatting stood frozen in place, unable to move at all.
Even those strong men were trembling. They had never felt such terrifying pressure since their birth!
"There's some left..."
Yan Mu didn't look very good. There were less than a thousand mermaids on this island, but they seemed to have been kept in captivity.
A few others were locked in cages with no clothes on, and were being carried towards the strange altar.
He remembered that Yan Yun had said before that the Mermaid Empire originally had more than [-] million people in total, but only more than [-] Mermaids escaped...
"Let's go down first."
As Yan Mu landed on the edge of Poseidon Island, the powerful pressure completely disappeared, and the fish people on Poseidon Island immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"The ancestor of the sea must have appeared! That is the gaze of the sea god!"
"Our sincerity must have impressed Haizu! This is Haizu's blessing!"
Many ignorant ordinary fishmen knelt on the ground and kept muttering something...
The mermaid boys and girls in the cage stared at these ugly fish-men with numb faces.
His eyes were full of despair.
They have been imprisoned in some murloc dungeons since birth.
The way to know what the outside world looks like is to listen to what your parents tell you...
The information about the outside world known to parents has also been passed down again and again for nearly three hundred years...
And now, it’s time to leave the dungeon.
They had no idea what they were about to face.
All I know is that leaving the dungeon means never going back...
"Prepare for sacrifice!"
"Woo~" A loud horn sounded from the altar made of an unknown number of bones.
The cage containing the mermaid boy and girl was slowly lifted again.
The wizard wearing various bone fragments walked at the front, screaming strangely while dancing a weird and funny sacrificial dance.
After landing, Yan Mu opened a portal directly on the spot and brought Yan Yun back to the rift.
"I'll go rescue the mermaids, and you'll comfort them later."
Saying that, he rushed out of the rift without looking back.
Listening to Yan Mu's cold tone, Yan Yun felt a little strange.
Yan Mu, who came outside the rift, felt it for a moment, then rushed towards a certain direction of Poseidon Island.
There are only three places where the mermaids are imprisoned, with as many as four or five hundred mermaids and as few as one or two hundred mermaids.
His pressure was almost fully activated this time, covering the entire Poseidon Island in an instant.
The cheering fishmen began to breathe rapidly and fell to the ground, but their expressions became more and more fanatical.
"This is the power of Haizu! Haizu is always watching over the tribe!"
"Haizu is coming!"
Although they couldn't move, it didn't stop them from cheering.
Yan Mu quickly arrived at one of the dungeons.
There were a large number of fish-man soldiers lying on the ground around the dungeon. They looked at the strange creatures falling from the sky, their eyes were splitting, and they were screaming in terror.
But he could only watch helplessly as the monster turned into a short human form and walked into the dungeon step by step.
Yan Mu frowned slightly when he walked into the dungeon.
It is more like a sewer than a dungeon, with five compartments for mermaids and dozens of empty compartments.
Dark, damp, dirty.
Hearing the sound of the dungeon door being pushed open, the mermaids immediately shrank into a ball.
But when he saw that those who came in were not those ugly fish-men, he suddenly showed a curious expression.
They all heard their elders say that when one day the person who enters the dungeon is not an ugly fishman, that is when they will be free...
"Are you here to save us?"
In the cell closest to Yan Mu, a bold mermaid girl had a look of anticipation on her face.
Although Yan Mu didn't understand, it was not difficult to analyze the meaning of this sentence from her stained face.
Suddenly, a portal appeared in the dungeon.
He nodded to her.
But just when she was about to step into the teleportation gate, Yan Mu suddenly slapped his head and almost forgot to turn off the random teleportation...
Then he reached out to the portal inside the huge fence door...
Well, my hands are too short to reach...
Then Yan Mu pushed hard and squeezed directly into the fence gate.
Yan Mu was stunned for a moment. If the mermaid girl hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands to hug him, he would have had close contact with the sewage.
The mermaid girl hugging Yan Mu was also stunned for a moment. Good guy, she hugged the prophesied savior?
His body was soft and fragrant, completely different from the mermaids like me who lived in the sewage...
But he soon became at a loss, whether to let go or not to let go.
The sour smell of sewage is simply a blasphemy against the Savior.
But I, who have lived here all year round, seem to be no better...
"Ahem, let me down."
Yan Mu was a little embarrassed and felt inexplicably ashamed to be held in the arms of the opposite sex.
The mermaid was also confused when she heard Yan Mu speak. It seemed that she couldn't understand the savior's language.
But letting go is impossible.
Compared to sewage, she felt that she should be cleaner.
Then he tightened his arms and hugged her even tighter.
Gradually, thirty or forty mermaids who were in the same cell also gathered around, but I always felt that there was something wrong with the way they looked at me, too hot.
Yan Mu glanced around and saw that there were no older mermaids, but he thought about it.
In such a harsh environment, except for the mermaid girl who is holding her, she has no cultivation skills at all. It is estimated that she will burn high incense if she lives to be thirty years old.
Of course, the mermaid girl's cultivation has just reached the trainee level...
Seeing that the mermaid holding him had no intention of letting go, he gave up and pointed at the portal, signaling to get closer.
When you arrive in front of the teleportation gate, reach out to the edge of the teleportation gate, close your eyes and feel where Yan Yun is, and completely fix the teleportation point.
"Okay, let's go in."
Yan Mu said while making gestures.
Until all the mermaids entered the rift except for the mermaid girl who was holding her, she still had no intention of letting go.
He was speechless. He was addicted to cuddling.
Language is indeed a big problem. I feel like I must ask the Four Demon Gods for advice on spiritual communication methods when I go back this time.
Signing to send himself out of the fence, Yan Mu squeezed out again.
But looking at the mermaid girl who just stared at him and didn't leave, I suddenly had a headache.
I didn't install attribute skills when I came out this time.
Regarding the properties of subsequent installations, I cannot control myself as well as I can now...
The main reason is that I am worried about hurting these mermaids who have no strength at all.
"and many more!"
An idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered that the princess had recently developed a special lock-picking technique...
During this period of time, the door to my room seemed to be empty...
The magic power was immediately activated, and a small cloud of dust gathered from nearby. Under the control of the magic power, it slowly invaded along the gap in the door lock.
"Crack~"
The entire unknown lock instantly fell apart and fell into the sewage.
