Chapter 39: Simple Tasks (2)(1/2)
In the end, Long Yingying was defeated. She waved her hands helplessly: "You are really...that's all. You have the final say!"
?
Long Qisheng:......
The last time I was so speechless was the last time!
…
rustle~
The subtle movement made both Long Qisheng and Long Yingying shut up.
Before he could carefully sense where the sound came from, he saw a silver arc flashing past.
Keng!
By the time Long Qisheng reacted, Xin Bailu had already sheathed the sword.
Snap!
A green head that looked a bit like a giant storm fish fell into the dim light.
Is this the strength of a semi-auxiliary in a B-level team? How strong are pure combatants...
Long Qisheng clicked his tongue.
After two seconds, dark green blood flowed out from the smooth incision on the head.
Blood dripped onto the ground and flowed outward along the sloping ground.
There seemed to be nothing unusual, but Mo Xun warned: "This monster's blood doesn't look right. It may contain corrosive poison."
"But the ground has not been corroded!" Long Yingying looked at the ground and stamped his feet, feeling a solid feeling.
If you look closely, the ground looks like an irregular stone, with a rough surface and seemingly many densely packed small bumps.
"Look to the side."
As he spoke, Mo Xun took out the bright flashlight from the side pocket of his backpack and took a look at his surroundings.
At this time, Long Qisheng discovered that they were standing on a small round island, surrounded by vast dark water, and a large area of light green smoke shrouded the space. Not far away in a certain direction seemed to be standing
A huge thing.
It's just that the irradiation distance of the strong light flashlight is limited, so you can't see clearly.
"This water..."
"It's some kind of biological acid."
Because all the soul chasers who had gone out before had lost their memories of being in this node, they had just learned that what was inside was like this.
Mo Xun moved the light beam of his flashlight and illuminated the headless body of the strange fish.
This fish has a flat body, covered with hard horny bumps, and has a pair of tiny forelimbs near its head.
"Although I have never seen this kind of creature, I have seen similar ones in the ethereal world. It should be an amphibian and can live in this strong acid lake. I don't believe it if it doesn't have some poison in it."
Long Qisheng smacked his tongue: "If you take one bite of this thing, your face will be disfigured even if you don't die..."
Long Yingying trembled and shrank behind Long Qisheng: "Long Qisheng, you have to protect me, I don't want to be disfigured."
"You can use your trolls to protect yourself." Long Qisheng reminded Long Yingying that she has weapons!
"Are you sure you want me to use the gun? Are you afraid that I will spray you?" Long Yingying's eyes widened.
Long Qisheng hesitated for a moment: "You...can't be so outrageous..."
"It's not outrageous, and I don't think it's outrageous either..." Long Yingying said with a guilty conscience.
Xin Bailu laughed and said in a soft voice: "Don't worry, I will protect you."
"Sister Lulu, I love you, muma~~"
Xin Bailu blushed again.
Mo Xun interrupted: "Hey, don't steal my lines!"
"hey-hey……"
…
The four of them walked around the island and found nothing more.
"Don't the intelligence say that the virtual spirit at this node is of the plant type? Why is there so much acid everywhere but not a single plant?" Long Yingying muttered.
"Be bold with your imagination. Maybe those plants grow at the bottom of the strong acid lake!" Long Qisheng made a bold guess.
"What kind of plant can be soaked in strong acid..." Long Yingying curled his lips.
"What Long Qisheng said makes sense." Mo Xun smiled and agreed with Long Qisheng's point of view: "If you are bolder, maybe these strong acids are secreted by those plants?"
Long Yingying immediately answered: "So that's the case, then it makes sense. The strong acid you secrete will definitely not corrode you! Brother Mo is so smart!"
Long Qisheng:......
I didn’t expect you to be a flatterer...
After the investigation, a look of regret appeared on Mo Xun's face: "It's a pity. If the virtual spirit is hiding in the acid lake, I really can't do anything to him."
"Can't you think of a way to lure it out?" Long Yingying pinched his chin and asked, staring at the water.
Long Qisheng shook his head: "Have I seen all the new recruits come back safely? What does this mean?"
"What does it mean?" Long Yingying answered blankly.
"It means that the virtual spirit is a Gou King!" Long Qisheng said with certainty: "He must have a way to detect the strength of the intruder. He did not dare to take the lead when the instructors came before, let alone this time it was led by Brother Mo.
Team, as long as that virtual spirit is not stupid, he will never come out to kill Brother Mo."
After speaking, he looked at Mo Xun: "Am I right, Brother Mo?"
Mo Xun smiled and nodded: "There's nothing wrong with your reasoning."
"Then what do we do next?"
Mo Xun looked up at the phantom of the huge thing in the distance, raised his chin and pointed in that direction: "Of course we went there. Although the intelligence department provided very little information, Che Jingxing and Jun Ru are here.
This aspect of life is definitely correct, so the most suspicious thing is there, it may be a relatively large mountain island."
"Just in case, we need to take some precautions first, Lulu!"
"Um!"
Needless to say, the tacit understanding between the two made Xin Bailu immediately understand what Mo Xun meant. She closed her amber eyes and opened her silver eyes. There was a faint light in her eyes. There seemed to be some mysterious runes in the light.
emerge.
She stretched out two fingers and drew in the air.
As she moved, a silver rune gradually appeared.
Xin Bailu took off the rune and put it on Long Yingying's forehead, and then started to draw the second one...
After a while, the four people's foreheads were all covered with runes drawn by Xin Bailu.
"This rune can protect our memory, so we don't have to worry about amnesia like others."
Xin Bailu's voice was soft and naturally tinged with shyness. It was tingling in the ears and was very useful.
I can't blame Brother Mo for his fall, no one can survive this... Long Qisheng muttered in his heart.
But there is one thing to say, this ability is really awesome. If I had this rune protection during the previous mission in Dafeng Village, I wouldn't be so embarrassed. I still can't figure out what happened in that lost memory.
No wonder He Liangren asked Xin Bailu to accompany him. He originally thought that He Liangren was taking care of their lovers, but it turned out that this task required Xin Bailu's ability...
However, this is only reasonable.
Sigh... If the last mission had this ability, it wouldn't have been so thrilling...
"Hey, take out the zipline launcher."
"oh oh."
Long Yingying took off his backpack and took out a large special-made firearm, and also took out a large bundle of thin steel cables connected with precision arrows.
In addition to being a power bank, Long Yingying can also carry a lot of equipment, which can be regarded as making the best use of everything.
Mo Xun attached the arrow of the steel cable to the launcher, aimed at the unknown behemoth in the distance, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The arrow shot out with a whoosh, taking off with a clatter of steel cables.
When there were only two or three meters left, the steel cable finally stopped. The flying steel cable fell downwards. Mo Xun grabbed the end and pulled. The steel cable stretched straight and stabilized in the air.
Long Yingying stuck out his tongue: "It's so dangerous. If you go any further, the steel cable won't be long enough."
Mo Xun glanced at her speechlessly.
Obviously, Mo Xun did this after visually measuring the distance and making sure the steel cable was long enough. When Long Yingying said this, it seemed like he was a reckless man...
"Lulu, take them there first."
Mo Xun wrapped the thin steel cable around his arm twice, grabbed it and took two steps back. The steel cable collapsed even tighter.
To be continued...
