Chapter 357: This task is too difficult

The sound of movement from around him made Zhou Wei hold back the excitement in his heart, and looked to the side, it turned out that it was the woman who swam towards him before.

The woman's face showed excitement, and as soon as she saw Qin Lang, she shouted excitedly: "It's you, it's you, you must be the person in the prophecy." ”

"Please, deliver us, let us out of the sea of suffering!" The woman looked at Qin Lang with a pair of bright eyes~ begging.

The Prophesied Man?

Zhou Wei was a little confused when he heard her words, and could only look at her in confusion.

The woman bent down slightly and said, "My lord, please allow me to introduce myself." ”

"My name is Elijah, and I'm an Odyssey, and I live in the Cavern of the Afterlife under the Blackwater River."

Zhou Wei's eyes lit up, there was really a universe under the Heishui River, could it be that the flower of the end was in the cave of the afterlife in her mouth. Although curious, Zhou Wei didn't interrupt her and let her continue to speak.

"We Odysseys used to live on the island of Sabbath and lived a carefree life, but hundreds of years ago, an evil dark magician came to our island with a kind of dark magic apostle and killed countless of our people."

"In the end, in desperation, the patriarch could only lead the remaining clansmen to sneak into the Heishui River and endure humiliation and steal life below."

Illya bit her lip and said, "My biggest dream is to go to the island of Sabbath and see our ancestors' homeland. There was a slight cry in her voice, "But for the past twenty years, I have only been able to surface and sneak a peek at the beautiful scenery." ”

"Your Excellency, please help us!" Illya pleaded sincerely.

"I see." Zhou Wei nodded, and did not immediately agree or refuse, but asked his doubts: "What happened to the person in the prophecy you said?" ”

Illya explained, "We Odysseys have the power of foreknowledge, and one of our ancestors prophesied at the cost of his own life that a warrior from outside would lead us to defeat the evil Dark Mage and return us to land. ”

The corners of Zhou Wei's mouth twitched, this prophecy is too simple, could it be that their ancestors broke it blindly in order to keep their beliefs?

Warriors from the outside I don't know how many warriors from the outside have been around all these years, and now they have all become new humans in Sleepless Town.

Zhou Wei suddenly showed a strange expression, in her eyes, she should be a very strange-looking human being, why wasn't she surprised at all, did she think that the human beings outside looked like this?

Looking at Illya's expectant eyes, Qin Lang was a little difficult to ask her about the Flower of the End for a while, but fortunately, a prompt tone helped him make a decision.

"Do you want to accept the hidden quest [Blooming Flower of End]?"

Just hearing the name of this task, Qin Lang agreed without hesitation.

Blooming Flower of the End (Hidden Mission)

Help the Odysseys defeat the powerful Dark Mage, the Witch King, and regain control of the Isle of Sabbath.

Successful Mission: Obtain the Flower of the Finish.

Mission Failed: The player dies and cannot be resurrected, only as a ghost.

Seeing the details of the mission, Zhou Wei sighed, the difficulty of this task must be much more difficult than the [Finding the Flower of End] that he received from Tianlong before, which can be seen from the punishment for failing the mission.

If he fails to find the Flower of End, he will only lose all his land and be wanted by the kingdom, but then he will have a chance to make a comeback, but if this mission fails, he has almost no possibility of turning the tables, and if he becomes a ghost, he can't use props or attack, which is equivalent to being completely insulated from this game.

"Thank you so much, sir." After Zhou Wei took over the task, a beautiful smile bloomed on Illya's face, and then said, "My lord, please come with me, I will take you to meet my grandfather, he is the patriarch of our Odyssey." ”

Now that he has agreed, he can only bite the bullet, and the reward of this task is something he can't refuse, and his behavior is the flower of end.

Zhou Wei followed Illya to dive down the Heishui River, and Illya should also have a treasure similar to a water-repellent droplet, making her whole person seem to be one with the water, not affected by the rapid flow of water at all.

Soon they reached the bottom of the river, which was full of debris and even mountains of bones, and it was clear that it was not as peaceful and peaceful as it seemed.

At this time, Eliya, who was leading the way in front, put the strange lamp in her hand in front of her, and kept testing it on the ground, and finally embedded it firmly in a certain place.

The blue-gray flames that were burning in the lamp suddenly exploded, and it looked like the whole lamp was burning.

"Click!"

There was a strange sound on the ground, and then a powerful momentum erupted, instantly discharging some of the surrounding water.

And next to the lamp, a hole suddenly appeared.

Illya took the lamp back, turned her head and smiled sweetly at Zhou Wei, and jumped into the cave first.

When Zhou Wei also entered the cave, there was a "bang", and the entrance to the cave behind him was blocked by something again.

The scene inside the cave was somewhat unexpected, he had thought that he would return to a dark and damp place like a cave, but on the contrary, it was full of shiny beads that lit up the vast space, and the beads seemed to provide warmth, making him feel warm.

The inside of the cave is very well-maintained, and it looks like a bungalow made of ash.

There are also some portraits carved around, perhaps the ancestors of their Odysseys, holding books one by one, reading something with their mouths open, and the text is very good.

There was a passage in front of him, and there were two guards standing next to him, especially when they saw him behind Illya, they were even more like a great enemy, and they had already raised their long swords in their hands.

"New Humans!" The two exclaimed in unison.

"Elia, come here!" A guard hurriedly said, took a few steps forward, stretched out his long sword and stabbed at Qin Lang.

Zhou Wei chuckled, but didn't make a move.

But a strange scene was played, and the long sword in the guard's hand refused to listen to him, as if he had suddenly possessed a will, and dragged him back to the other guard, and slashed at the sword in the guard's hand.

"Bang!"

With a crisp sound, the two swords snapped.

The pupils of the two guards shrank suddenly, and then they stared at Qin Lang with a ghostly expression.

Illya's beautiful eyes lit up, she really didn't see the wrong person, this person must be the warrior who could lead them to defeat the black mage in the prophecy of the ancestors!

Illya was not afraid, but the two guards were panicked, they were not as naΓ―ve and ignorant as Illya, and they did not know what a catastrophe the new humans would bring to them.

If the new humans know their stronghold, then the dark mages who control them must also know, maybe there are already a large number of dark mages gathered outside, and they will attack the Cave of the Afterlife at the first order of the Witch King.

The more they thought about it, the more worried they became, their bodies trembling slightly, and one of them tried to rush back to tell the people inside about this great bad news, but was stopped by Illya.

Seeing the smile on Illya's face, the worry in his heart did not diminish in the slightest, and he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Illya had rebelled and deliberately revealed the location of their stronghold to the dark magician?

Illya smiled and said, "Brother Slo, you don't have to be afraid of "820", this lord is the prophesied warrior, and he is here to help us." ”

The eyes of both guards widened slightly, and their faces were still uncertain.

The guard Alphaga frowned, and wondered, "Didn't the prophecy say that the warriors came from outside?" ”

Guard Slow also looked at Elia, waiting for her explanation.

Illya smiled sweetly and said as a matter of course: "That's right! ”

"The prophecy of 'outside' actually refers to the outside of the Blackwater River, not outside the island of Sabbath."

Zhou Wei next to him laughed secretly, this chick probably doesn't know, he is really from outside the rest of the island.

After hearing Illya's explanation, the two of them were skeptical, but seeing that Qin Lang did not show hostility, their hearts were slightly relaxed, and then they were sandwiched next to them and led them in, obviously not completely relaxing their vigilance.

Zhou Wei didn't care, if he wanted to leave, let alone just the two of them, even if two thousand more guards came, he couldn't stop it.

The passage grew wider and wider, and there were many branching routes on both sides, and Zhou Wei guessed that those branches should lead to the rooms of the Odyssey residents.

They kept moving forward, and there were gradually more decorative embellishments on both sides, so that they did not feel depressed and uncomfortable because they were in a confined space.

These odysseys have turned this cavern into a vast underground dwelling.

As you move forward, your vision brightens as if it were day.

Looking inside, there was a hall with a round stone table and many people sitting around it.

As soon as they walked over, and before they could get out of the passage, they heard a somewhat stern voice coming from inside: "You don't need to say any more, I won't agree!" ”

The voice sounded a little old, and it was supposed to be a very old man.

At this time, Zhou Wei saw Illya standing next to him frowning, and muttered softly: "How can Grandpa be so angry?" ”

The two guards seemed to know something, and they all smiled wryly, but they didn't explain it to Illya.

"Patriarch, do you want all of us Odysseys to die at the bottom of this river?" A slightly younger voice asked loudly.

"You!" Illya's grandfather was angry, but for a moment he couldn't think of anything to refute.

Zhou Wei and the three of them walked out of the passage, and they could immediately see that the old man in the hall was trembling with anger.

Illya hurriedly ran over to support her grandfather, then looked at the young man standing opposite the old man with a sullen face, and said angrily: "Noah, how can you speak to the patriarch like this, and don't you apologize to the patriarch quickly!" ”

The man did not have any remorse on his face, but said to Illya in righteous words: "Illya, if we continue like this, we will all die here, and we can only live by taking refuge in the Witch King!" ”

His tone softened slightly, and he continued, "Illya, don't you want to go ashore and have a look?" As long as we take refuge in the Witch King, we will be free to live on land in the future. ”

Illya looked at Noah coldly, and said coldly: "Listen to his dispatch at any time, and be tested by them every day, if this is what you call freedom, then I would rather live here forever!" ”

"Stubborn!" Noah said with a dark face, and then said, "Since you want to die, then stay here and wait for death, we have to start a new life." ”

After Noah finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the people behind him, hoping that they would also speak out in support of him.
