Chapter 116: Dance Partner
After the huge shuriken hit the opponent accurately, Sherlock smashed a vial of blood at his feet, and then ran towards the hanging workshop without looking back.
The phagosome was attacked, and two protoplasmic tentacles extended out and were about to rush away, but the smell of blood coming from the door brought it a deeper stimulus.
Driven by desire, the piece of meat squirmed towards the source of the smell of blood, and the countless mouths on the body began to mumble meaninglessly.
System Prompt: You are affected by incoherence and perceive that the verdict is successful.
Phagonagoon's incoherent speech is a supernatural ability, and the murmurs coming out of his mouth have a psychic coercive effect, close to the confusion of necromancy, and the player loses their physical coordination when the judgment fails.
Sherlock also relied on his relatively high perception attribute to dare to pull the blame like this.
Taking advantage of the other party's time to lick the blood, he also ran back to the crane workshop, smashed the second glass bottle on the crane, and he pulled the crank switch upward.
Don't look at the phagosomes as disgusting, but the speed of squirming is not much slower than that of ordinary people, especially in this complex corridor.
Almost as Sherlock ascended to the first floor, the other party also climbed up along the rock wall, and a mouthful of spit burned rapidly in the air, emitting a strong flash.
System prompt: You are affected by strong light, your constitution judgment fails, and you enter a blind state.
This attack also caught Sherlock off guard, he only knew that the phagosome's saliva and air would burn in contact, and it would form a spell similar to fireball, but the illustrated book did not say that there was a strong light judgment.
The basic movement in the half-cat form is okay, but it is a little difficult to run in this unfamiliar terrain, especially the phagosome and the ability to control the ground, he can only turn into the blue frog form, relying on the sound and the touch of the skin to avoid the quicksand and mud that appear at his feet from time to time, as well as the tentacles that continue to stretch over.
Yes!
It's a phagosome, run!
Groove, who led it out!
He was fine, but the guards on the road were in trouble, wrapped in the six tentacles of the Phagogue, and the mouth on it could drain a person's blood in 2 seconds.
The confusion was exacerbated by the fleeing and shouting of the guards, spreading from the crane shop on the ground floor to the warehouse.
With the actual commander of the operation, Tyven, gone, and the death of the Drow Priest, there is not even a single person in charge of the entire ruins, and the most nominally high-ranking mage is probably Winks.
It's a pity that Winks's prestige doesn't seem to be very high, and his popularity is not very good, otherwise if Sherlock transforms out now, he may really be able to temporarily control the remaining guards to help him deal with this dread.
Now that he can't beat it, he can only be an accomplice, there is such a big murder weapon in front of him to attract attention, he assassinated four people in a row without even being discovered, this experience package is not too cool to put away.
In the end, seeing that the remaining eight people had gathered together, he directly threw a bottle of half-orc blood over, and then turned to chanting the Ice Mist Technique.
The cold wind came suddenly, and in the face of the extremely high judgment value of dragon magic, the eight NPCs entered a frozen state before they could shout.
As for the terrible phagosome, of course, it was not affected by this, and directly wrapped its body in that large lump of ice and feasted on it.
"Eat, eat, I hope you're full, and go back to sleep as soon as you're full." At this time, Sherlock suddenly thought of a problem, if the other party sucked blood and sucked high, and then ran to the third floor to add food, it would be self-defeating.
But perhaps it was his good fortune that came into play again, and after sucking the eight people in front of him, the phagosome moved back to the lair with the reddened pieces of flesh.
The remaining two NPCs at the entrance took no time to be solved by Sherlock's sneak attack. He was then able to complete his mission by escorting the captured merchants back to the city.
"Sherlock, I'm going to Locketown, so I'm not going with you." Brought everyone up, but the elven warrior was not ready to go to Noisy Water City.
"Okay, goodbye." That being said, but it is likely that the two will never see each other for the second time in their lives, after all, the game is so big, there are so many players, and how many people have the opportunity to form a second team.
In the end, Sherlock drove away in the carriage alone, but when he had gone far, the chicken wings, which he said were going back to Locketown, looked at the entrance of the cave, but turned around and walked in again.
……
With a carriage to travel, the escort saved a lot of time, and Sherlock did not encounter any other accidents along the way, and drove into the noisy water city very smoothly.
It's just that in the end, he still couldn't identify which person was a member of the Raven Society, and he didn't bother to investigate it anyway when the invitation came.
"Sherlock, I've received the news, you've done a beautiful job this time, are you interested in doing us another favor." Thack handed over the invitation and said.
"There's something going on lately, so I shouldn't be free." He didn't want to get too much contact with the organization of the Crow Society, and he didn't plan to join it, so taking on their tasks had no long-term benefit value, and with kung fu, he might as well brush up on the harpist's organizational tasks.
"It seems that you and I are not fated anymore, but there is one more thing I want to remind you that you must bring a dance partner to Helena's banquet." The mission was rejected, and Zaq was not angry, but there was a little disappointment.
They have also been actively recruiting adventurers to join them recently, but the performance of those newcomers is really poor, so they can't help but test when they see this druid.
"Thank you." Sherlock thanked him and left.
He really didn't expect the dance partner's business, but there should be no problem with Mu Ruxi here, and it is not a brother's business to participate in a banquet with the relationship between the two, so he sent her a message asking to meet and walked to the carriage alone.
Helena's banquet was still a few days away, and he was going to take advantage of this time to visit Far Star Lake.
Located on the northern border of the Supreme Wasteland, this famous lake in the whole of Feren is known as the pearl of the desert, and its beauty attracts countless pilgrims, including humans, dwarves, and elves, who will be completely captivated by the legendary crystal-perfect lake.
Many troubadours could not believe that such beauty could be so beautiful that they did not require special magical powers, so they made up stories about submerged temples, Nessreel's spaceship sunk underwater, or lost civilizations beneath the lake.
These legends are naturally anecdotal in the eyes of NPCs, but they are different for adventurers, and who knows if this is a clue to the system settings.
Therefore, in less than a month after the game was opened, players who drowned in Far Star Lake could go around the high desert hand in hand.
