Chapter 300: The Lair
"Hidden Mission! Hidden quest has been triggered! β
In the player's chat group, a column of excited cheers floated up.
Of course, there are also doubtful voices:
"I'll ...... How can there be a punishment for failure this time? β
"There's a punishment, but the reward is also very high, and there's an exclusive title! It's not enough to finish the task well. 5000 contribution points, you can directly change to a purple equipment, or draw five prizes, usually if you want a liver, you need a liver for several days! β
"That's how terrible the punishment is...... 5,000 contributions......"
"Well, be careful, just don't wave."
In the chat group, the players talked to each other.
At the same time, those players who originally planned to start the waves also hurriedly put away their careful thoughts.
Seeing that several players led by Demacia who were originally about to make trouble were honest, Eve hooked the corners of her mouth slightly.
There's nothing that tasks and contributions can't control the player.
If there is, then add more rewards or punishments.
And at this time, the old man on the stage spoke.
I saw him show a sensible smile, looked at the people in the audience, and said with a smile:
"Welcome to the Church of Despair."
After finishing speaking, those ordinary people who were standing with the players and had been controlled by the Abyss Worm saluted him respectfully and said in a deep voice:
"Praise be to my Lord...... Great god of despair! β
It's just that their facial expressions are very dull, and there is even a hint of gloom, which looks a little crazy.
And the players reacted quickly, and they followed the example of the poor creatures who were controlled, straightened their faces, and said loudly:
"Praise be to my Lord...... Great god of despair! β
However, looking at the hundreds of respectful figures in the audience, the smile on the old man's face faded a little.
"Hey...... Didn't work out. β
He shook his head secretly.
Didn't work out?
Although the old man's voice was low, Eve, who had demigod-level perception, could still hear the other party's words clearly.
Suddenly, her heart moved, and she once again focused her attention on the trembling abyssal worm on her body, and examined it carefully.
And this look made her see the difference.
"Huh? Is there something hidden? β
This time, Eve noticed that there was a hidden power hidden in the bodies of these mutated abyssal worms.
That power, evil chaos, with a deep air of despair.
That's the power that belongs to Nidhogg, the dragon of despair!
This power is hidden deeply, obscured by the evil aura characteristic of the Abyssal Worm.
Even if it was Eve, she didn't recognize it at the first time.
"I see...... These worms are not only a means for the Church of Despair to control others, but also a means for selecting believers! β
Eve's heart fluttered.
She changed her mind and directly killed the abyssal worm in her body.
And at the moment when the Abyss Worm died, an evil force suddenly burst out from the other party's body, instantly enveloping Eve's incarnation.
For a moment, Eve felt countless whispers echoing in her ears.
It was the whispers of the evil gods, the bewitchment of Nidhogg.
If it were an ordinary intelligent being, when they heard these words, they would immediately fall into madness and become a fervent admirer of Nidhogg.
Of course, for Eve, who has a powerful spirit, this kind of whispering is just tickling.
"I see...... The Abyssal Worm is both a means of controlling other beings and a means of detecting their potential. β
"The mutated Abyssal Worm is weird, but it's also fragile."
"For beings with strong willpower, they can rely on their soul power to kill these intruders and then ...... The whispers hidden in the worms' bodies will be stimulated, and the other party will be completely transformed into their true believers! β
"Niederhogg...... In this way, only those beings with strong souls are chosen to become their true believers! β
Beings with powerful souls have the potential to grow into fanatics and even saints.
The power of faith that they provide to the true God is also stronger.
For a moment, Eve quickly understood the other party's intentions.
Thinking of this, her mind moved.
For a while, the players who were at the top of the contribution rankings or battle rankings, such as Lunchbox, Hulu, Little Salty Meow, and Coo Bird, also had strange smoke rising from their bodies.
The worms in their bodies were also killed by Eve.
Of course, when the evil whispers appeared, Eve protected their consciousness.
And seeing the evil aura that suddenly appeared on several people, the players were slightly stunned.
At the same time, Xiao Xianmeow and a few people were surprised to find that they suddenly comprehended a new skill-
γTransform into a Desperate Scale Monsterγ
"Huh? What the hell is this skill? β
She took a screenshot and sent it to the group.
And soon, it ushered in the onlookers of other players:
"I'll ...... Transform into a Desperate Scale Monster? Isn't that the name of the monster that fought with Myrell before? β
"Why don't we?"
Of course you don't, because I chose the people.
Eve complained in her heart.
At this time, the old man on the stage instantly became energetic.
He looked at the few people who were suddenly surrounded by evil energy in the audience, and his expression was excited:
"Five! There were five of them! β
Soon, though, he calmed down and his expression became calm again.
I saw that he laughed twice first, and said to everyone in the audience:
"You ...... Go back first, and wait for my lord's call again. β
Then, he looked at Eve again:
"You guys stay."
"! Is this Xiao Xianmeow, they were selected by the system? What is the principle? Envy! β
"Ahhh Follow-up hidden plot! It must be the follow-up hidden plot! Why not me! β
Seeing the few people with the evil power entwined in their bodies, the chat group flashed one after another messages of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Because you're out of luck!"
Xiao Xian Meow typed beautifully.
Then, she looked at Eve again and whispered in surprise:
"Sister Feng, you were also hit?"
Eve smiled slightly and replied simply:
"Good luck."
The other players are still envious:
"Hey...... The local tyrant is already enviable enough, why should it be so European. β
"I found out that Africans are not suitable for this game......"
"Cut, local tyrants and European conflicts?"
Little Salty Meow pursed her lips.
As soon as the old man's voice fell, those ordinary people who were really parasitized by the abyss worm bowed one after another, and then turned to leave.
However, players were a little hesitant.
In the chat group, it is still lively.
It's just that when they saw the failure punishment in the mission system, they finally swallowed their spittle, reluctantly learned to bow to the others, and then retreated.
"Don't worry, I'll broadcast the next plot live!"
Looking at the players who had withdrawn one after another, Xiao Xianmeow typed with a smile.
After the other players left, the old man nodded at Eve:
"You come with me."
With that, he turned around and walked into the darkness.
And Xiao Xianmeow looked at each other and followed.
Eve, on the other hand, was half a step slower and walked at the rear.
Behind a few people, the nearly 100 desperate believers with hoods also put away the candles in their hands and kept up with them.
The group quickly descended into darkness, turned left and right, and eventually came to a cave at the back of the ruins that led to an underground sewer.
The old man did not hesitate and walked in first.
Several players frowned slightly, turned off their olfactory systems, and followed.
Of course, while entering, they did not forget to turn on the live broadcast and recording.
And those players who quit also entered the live broadcast room one after another, watching the actions of several people.
The underground waterways are deep and damp, and there is a hazy mist.
Suddenly, a rat was startled by the sudden appearance of the team, jumped out of one side, and accidentally entered the fog.
Then, I saw smoke suddenly rise from its body, and in the blink of an eye, its entire body was corroded into a bloody stain.
Seeing these fogs, the old man's face suddenly became very cautious.
I saw him stretch out his hand, take out a portable lamp, and light it.
A faint wave spreads out, and the fog disperses slightly.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued with the team.
"Be careful not to touch those fogs."
He reminded.
And when the team entered, the fog slowly closed again.
The old man walked all the way with the lamp in his hand.
In the long and narrow passage, only the footsteps of a group of people kept echoing.
After walking for about ten minutes, a huge stone gate appeared in front of everyone.
The stone gate seems to be quite ancient, carved with intricate and mysterious patterns, and painted with some unfamiliar characters.
Eve recognized it, it was the ancient dragon language of the Dragon Age, which means "land of life".
The Land of Life......
Eve raised an eyebrow slightly.
Dragon language, like elven language, is a kind of writing with a strong sense of magic, and each word in dragon language has a special meaning, but also has mysterious powers.
And the "land of life", in some translations of the dragon language, is also called the lair, or the source of birth.
In other words......
This is where a powerful being prepares to revive itself......
And who this powerful existence is, Eve already has the answer in her heart.
