Chapter 42: Dark Canyon Chapter: Opportunity and Competing for Names
Fu Kou really couldn't sleep, he felt the sourness on his eyes, and he felt sleepy like a tide, but he just couldn't sleep. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Because it's so quiet here, so quiet that as long as you don't open your eyes, you can't feel anything around you, which gives him an unprecedented sense of crisis.
In the end, he had to give up the idea of resting here. He opened Aphrodite and was about to buy magic or items, but he was surprised to find that Aphrodite had entered an updated state again!
Aphrodite automatically reminds that the system will be upgraded from A1 to A2, which will take 24 hours. There are now 22 hours and 54 minutes left until the update is complete. ”
He sat gloomily on the intertwined branches, thinking to himself that it seemed impossible to escape from this haunted place with the help of Aphrodite, who was always out of use at the critical moment.
Without Aphrodite's help, it was clear that the monster at Maysfield would not have helped him easily, and he had to rely on himself, as he had done every day and night.
He suddenly remembered that Mesfield had warned him not to go east. He thought that maybe the east side would be a breakthrough, and even if it was, as Mesfield said, full of pitfalls, it would be worth a try for him who was at a loss for what to do.
He climbed down from the branches and groped his way in the darkness, avoiding the shore of the lake. He tread on the moist soil, relying on the only light he had to make out the outline of his surroundings, and then tell that it was to the east. He headed east.
"Where are you going, little ghost? "I warned you, don't go east, you shouldn't have such dangerous thoughts," said Mesfield, in a dark corner. ”
Vines crawled along the mountain wall, intertwining like spider webs, completely blocking the way to the east of Fuko.
"What do you mean, Masfield? Don't you say you want me to find my way out? Now that I think there's a way out to the east, why are you holding me back?"
"No, not in the east, there's only one hateful bastard in the east, and nothing else!"
Masfield's emotions suddenly became agitated and angry, and his voice almost roared, echoing and oscillating through the valley.
"Who's that bastard?"
"I'm not going to tell you anything, give up, you have to go out, you can only go west!"
"Well, you're a stubborn monster. ”
Fuko at least knew that there was a living creature to the east, and that it would be unpleasant for a big man like Masefield to mention its name, that living creature was not human, but something like him. Until now, he wasn't sure if Masfield was a dragon or not, maybe he was, maybe not. He decided to continue the temptation.
"Mesfield, I say, do you know Igniel?"
"Who? Who is he, how can I possibly know the unknown junior?"
Fuko wondered if Mesfield simply didn't know Igniel, or if he wasn't really a creature of the same race as Igniel?
Since there was no way to get to the east, Fuko had to stay where he was. After a while, his stomach rumbled, and he had no choice but to say, "Masfield, I said, can you get me something to eat, I'm hungry." ”
"Humans are such a nuisance! They have to eat so often when they are so small, and I tell you, if you live here, you will starve to death in less than a week. ”
"I'm not going to stay here for a week, please, find me some food. ”
"Humph!"
Just when Fuko thought that Mayfield had rejected his request, he heard what appeared to be a moving hill, and he knew that Maysfield had begun to move in the dark.
"Stay put, little ghost, I'll be back in a moment, and if I find out you're not here, but you're going east, you're in big trouble. ”
"Okay. ”
Fu Kou said perfunctorily. He listened intently, and as soon as he heard the sound of Maysfield's activity go away, he immediately crawled over the net of the branches to the east and jumped to the other side.
"There's got to be something weird in the east, I've got to figure it out, or I'm really going to be here for a week. ”
He muttered to himself as he walked to the edge of the cliff and groped his way on. He walked for a long time, and then he unexpectedly began to hear insects and birds chirping, and several rays of light shone on him. He thought he was about to get out of this gloomy canyon, but he stepped into the mud, and he finally pulled his leg out.
Then he looked up, and it was a relatively wide area, but there were mountains on three sides, and there were no mountains except when he came out. The light was able to shine on every corner of the place, so he could see anywhere in the place. It's all dense with reeds, and under the reeds is a black mud pool.
Compared to the previous dark world, this place is simply a paradise of light.
"Are these quagmires so-called 'traps,'" said Fuko, "Indeed, for a body as bulky as Masfield, the quagmire here is hell, and it's hard to pull it out once you step into it." ”
"Who? who's calling my name?"
Fuko was taken aback, he didn't expect Maesfield to come back so soon, and he had already chased here. But when he thought about it, he realized that something was wrong, that Masefield's voice was by no means so high-pitched, like that of an old woman.
Then, the sound of scales rubbing against the mountain wall continued to sound. A huge gray-blue serpent poked its head out of the cave in the cliff and spat out red letters. Her eyes were red and bright, like two burning flames. Her scales reflect a beautiful glow in the sun. When she opened her mouth to speak, she showed her sharp fangs.
"Is it you, how do you know my name?" she asked.
Fukou was stunned for a moment before replying, "No, no, I'm talking ......"
"No, it's not, that's my name, and you're not qualified to steal my name. ”
The familiar old man's voice came from behind Fuko, and when he looked back, he saw a scene that surprised him even more than the sight of the serpent.
He had thought that Mesfield was a dragon, but when exposed to the sun, he realized that it was a huge toad, but its rough skin was covered with vines, as if it had grown on him.
"You're the one who stole the name, and I'm Maysfield. The serpent said coldly.
"Didn't I tell you not to come here, little ghost?" said toad to Fuko, and then jumped up and landed between the serpent and Fuko, and he said to the serpent, "Are you going to continue this conversation with me again?"
