Chapter 556: Purging the Sins of History
"What's wrong, Xiaoyu?"
The clown emperor who was walking in the illusion in the distance heard my exclamation to himself, and hurriedly came back to ask, and after turning back, he also seemed to find that he was in a strange situation, and his vigilance prompted him not to stay, so he quickly accelerated a few steps and fled back to me.
He looked back at the place he had just walked by, and his brows furrowed: "What was the situation just now?" Xiaoyu, what do you know? β
"I don't know, but it's similar to a certain formation I encountered in the Novice Village, so it's a side quest involved in the main line of the Imperial City."
"Side quests for the Imperial City?" The Clown Emperor caught a sensitive word I had inadvertently mentioned and pondered what the connection was: "What about then?" How do you hack it? β
"Well, it's actually quite simple." I shrugged my shoulders, then turned and walked backwards in that direction, leaning firmly against the solid wall before I had gone twenty meters.
The cracking method is so simple, and the simplicity makes people a little unbelievable.
I took out my weapon and attacked behind me, and the sound of the attack fell, and the stone slabs that formed the formation fell to the ground with a "click" sound.
"It's the first time I've encountered a puzzle that can be solved by walking." The Clown Emperor walked over and picked up the slate and said with a smile.
"Don't mention it, the first time I encountered this formation-breaking method, it made me sad; Thanks to my cleverness, it took me less than half an hour to solve this puzzle, and I don't think I would have thought of it in half a lifetime. β
The Clown Emperor looked at the stone slab seriously and asked, "Then does this formation have anything to do with the mission you experienced before?" β
"It is estimated that it is also related to the Imperial City, because the bones of the Protoss I am looking for now were made by a certain city lord back then, and today I saw this [Psychedelic Eye], I'm afraid it's not a coincidence."
"You mean, what plans did this mysterious Protoss City Lord leave behind?"
"Not only that, this combined with my previous main quest can find some clues...... the original Terran Huangfu City arranged the [Psychedelic Eye] in Yinxian Village to resurrect the Dementor Woman, and then capture it for war purposes after absorbing the villagers, its fundamental purpose is to subdue the imperial city forces of other races; And now that this secret method has reappeared in this realm of the Protoss, it means that the Protoss and the Terran may have had some kind of transaction or relationship back then, and there may be some causal relationship between the two. β
"It doesn't matter what the cause and effect are," the Clown Emperor said as he picked up the bones that had been covered behind the [Psychedelic Eye] just now and put them on my hand, "Let's carry you ancestors back first." β
It's ......, and it's a long journey.
But after returning to the city this time, there was no single special skeleton, all the skeletons obediently dissipated, and the sudden change made me think that some crucial skeleton was missing; Because of this, I deliberately ran back to look for a circle, but it was also in vain.
The latter island is similar to this Tempest Island, except that it is covered with continuous downpours, the visual distance is greatly reduced, and people who do not have special props to protect themselves will be burned to death by the rain in less than a few seconds if they stand on it.
In order to find the special island we logged into, we had to go back, and finally found a monster called [Rain Shelter Ghost Face] in the center of the huge island, and killed it to have a chance to get their heads, which can be used to avoid the damage of the rain.
And the biggest difficulty of this island is not the boss, but the harsh environment and those stone archers who attack at a very long distance, the torrential rain will not affect their vision in the slightest, so we will always be exposed to the fire output by them in an invisible place, so that the loss will be particularly heavy when passing by the side of the hills; In the end, the sea was so angry that he directly pulled hundreds of hussars and rammed directly in the direction of the attack, using his numerical advantage to smash all those hateful stone archers to pieces.
"Another piece."
After killing the boss, the Clown Emperor and I found the sealed point on this island, and used the same method to easily crack the psychedelic formation of the Seven Aperture Array, and this time the bones disappeared in the same number, and there was no special situation like before.
"There were no such things on the previous islands, but they were found on both islands, and if there was one difference, it was that the conditions for landing on these two islands were related to the big island."
The Clown Emperor's analysis is completely consistent with my thoughts, but I have more ideas than I know the details of the mission at that time, if this Protoss City Lord really sent these mysterious teams here back then, then there is no need for him to set up these formations, because these formations are placed in hidden locations, and it is impossible to set them up to deal with monsters, so it seems that his purpose is by no means as simple as exploring here.
"If Huangfu City had set up this formation to resurrect the Dementor at that time, would this Protoss City Lord have the same purpose?" The Clown Emperor looked at his surroundings and had some unique perspectives on the task I was working on.
"You mean, he's also here to resurrect someone?"
He nodded: "Maybe someone, maybe ...... It's himself. β
In order to test this idea, I quickly rushed back to the group after transporting the bones back to the Protoss Imperial City, and the nature of the third island is that it is exposed to the sun all day long, there is no night here, and there are no special items to protect it.
The props to avoid these vicious sunlight are still on that large island, produced in the center of the three mountains of a spirit called [Light Inviolation], in order to search for the secrets of the remaining islands, we can be regarded as exploring this most mysterious and vast large island by the way.
After collecting the three pieces of [Psychedelic Eye], I went back to meet the Protoss City Lord again with gradually clear clues and doubts that I couldn't understand.
ββ¦β¦ Therefore, I guess that the city lord wanted to use the Seven Aperture Array to seal himself in the Immortal Crane Pond, and then use some kind of power there to achieve the goal of resurrection. β
Although it was reasonable, the city lord was still a little puzzled: "If as you said, the Seven Aperture Array needs seven points to cast spells, and you have only found three of them now, how can you be sure of this?" β
"I'm afraid that the bones that carried the unknown breath before were sacrificed to the ...... of the living body, the first three islands cast spells with living bodies, and the last three islands were arranged with props, so that even if they were discovered by others, they would not easily associate with the Seven Aperture Array, let alone understand the true intentions of the city lord back then...... This move is to hide from the world. β
"Well, one more point."
"The rest of the point is in the middle of that big island, and if you guess it is true, the last point is somewhere on that big island. And the former city lord is probably also hiding in a hidden place in the form of death, waiting for the time to come. β
After explaining the matter and my speculation, the system prompted me to complete the task.
"Player Xingyu completes the hidden mission: [Protoss Team of Unknown Origin] and obtains the permanent right to use [Seven Star Peiyu]."
"What you said is indeed good, the [Seven Aperture Array] is a magic circle that rebels against the order of yin and yang, so it has long been agreed by the Three Realms Imperial City not to use it again; Now that he learned of this, he also understood his vicious plan, and this person knew that his sins were so heavy that future generations would not let it go easily, so he first used his death to understand the resentment of future generations against him, and then cast the Seven Tricks Array there to prepare for the resurrection and comeback in the next life. The city lord of the Protoss was filled with indignation, but at the same time, he was full of sighs: "It's just a pity that those loyal soldiers, they don't know that they have been used by the wicked, and they only know how to go out with the king's life, but in the end they end up with a miserable end of being scattered and not returning home......"
As he spoke, he and the ministers under him were full of regret.
After a brief remembrance, the city lord regained the sharpness and sharpness between his eyebrows, he looked up at me, his eyes were like a torch: "Warrior, the matter has come to this, I still have one more thing to ask for, I hope you don't shirk." β
"Lord, please speak."
"Since he has been dead for so long and has not been able to be resurrected, I think it is a little bit of a ......, so I hope you will go back with these bones and props to successfully activate the Seven Aperture Array, and then bring this blood-indebted person back to life."
The lord of the castle was shocked by his plea, and as soon as the front foot said that he hated him, the back foot asked me to help him resurrect.
You're clearly his accomplice!
However, this guy later explained his original intention: "Don't misunderstand, warrior, I'm not trying to achieve his evil thoughts; But he is deeply sinful, and I don't want him to end up in a good ending in the first life; So I want you to resurrect him and kill him completely...... Of course, I will send my best soldiers to assist you, just to give justice to the people, and sacrifice his head to those who have died. β
"Does the player Xingyu accept the mission: [Cleanse the sins of history]."
"Yes."
"Player Xingyu accepts the mission: [Cleanse the sins of history]."
Brief Description: Find the sinful Beginning of Chaos Cust, thwart his plot, and take his life to comfort the sacrificial Protoss soldiers.
Requirements: Unravel the [Seven Tricks] and defeat [Beginning of Madness: Cust].
Quest progression: After unlocking the [Seven Trick Array], enter the [Island of Three Mountains] to get 10 [Imperial Guard Auxiliary Generals] to follow.
γImperial Guardsγ
Occupation: Undecided
Race: Protoss
Level: 100
HP:100000
Physical Attack: 40000
Magic Attack: 40000
Physical Defense: 30000
Magical Defense: 30,000
Speed: 300
Character Characteristics:
[Will of Loyalty]: Each time you are summoned, you can choose one of the four classes of [Qiyun Swordsman], [Shadow Hunter], [Spell Master], and [Wind Shadow Grandmaster].
[Imperial Grace Protection]: Passive skill, all allied targets within 3 yards will be protected, allowing them to gain a shield equal to 5% of the target's maximum HP value when around them, and it takes 20 seconds for the shield to spawn again after the shield is broken.
[Thousand Retreat Majesty]: Passive skill, [Imperial Guard Auxiliary General] can deter the enemy with the Imperial City Battle Pass of the Protoss, and can weaken all its attributes by 10% when facing ordinary neutral monsters whose level is equal to or less than their own level.
The city lord is generous.,Come up and directly give 10 elite soldiers for me to deploy and choose the profession.,And the character characteristics are both offensive and defensive.,Weaken monster bonus teammates.,It's really easy to use.γ
However, these guys will also die, and the number will be directly reduced after death, and if you want to refill it, you need to pay gold coins from the city lord, and it takes 20,000 gold coins to resurrect a person.
Judging from the current exchange rate, 20,000 gold coins are worth at least 300 yuan.
And these soldiers are following me, so when I leave the big island, they will disappear automatically, so the idea that they die and then I run back to spend money to replenish my combat power is not advisable.
In that case, then I should look for clues related to the [Seven Aperture Array] next.
