She's not going to be blackened, right?

Lin Chen subconsciously took a few steps back, staring at the identity icon on the minimap, and repeatedly made sure that Saril had not transformed from a friendly NPC to a hostile NPC, so he lowered his vigilance a little.

Lin Chen quickly calmed down, since Saril had not become hostile, then first of all, he could confirm that there was no problem with some of his conjectures, and Sariel's essence was not bad. In that case, there must have been some unavoidable secret in Sariel's attraction of ogres, or was it just an accident?

Lin Chen said with a cautious face: "I still believe in you, you are not an evil witch. If you are truly evil, it is impossible for me to stand in front of you in its entirety. ”

The witch sighed and said, "You are right, and you are not right. You didn't see the cruelty of my erasure of life, but then I got tired and wanted to spend my old age in peace. I chose to go back to the village, originally hoping to regain the warmth in my memory, but I found that things had long since changed, and even Flower was old and timid, and I could no longer find the original feeling. ”

She paused, then continued: "Being a witch alone is not enough to make them too afraid of me, they are simple after all, and they don't have much contact with the outside world. The reason why I asked them to reject it was because I wanted to take away one of the things in the village, which had been kept by my father, the previous village chief, and which was supposed to have fallen into the hands of Flor. ”

"Slate?"

"Yes, I am very interested in that stone slab, it is said that it is because of its existence that it has guarded the peace of the village for hundreds of years, but I feel the aura of darkness in its body. But I was rejected by Flore, and in a fit of rage I turned him into a frog, not because I wanted to kill him, the spell was short-lived, but I still caused panic in the village. ”

"So you were expelled from the village?" Lin Chen asked, "What about the ogre?" ”

The witch didn't answer Lin Chen's question directly, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know how the Gravel Forest was born?" ”

"Huh?"

"There was a great battle here, and the brave man finally defeated the evil enemy with the help of the power of the stone tablet, but the brave also paid the price with their lives."

The witch smiled and said, "It should have been at that time that the stone slab guarding the village was polluted by the dark power, and I don't know what will become of it in the end, and whether it will produce good or bad results." So I brought in an ogre to test it all out, and I found out I was wrong......"

The witch restrained her smile, and the atmosphere became very heavy.

"That's no ordinary ogre."

Lin Chen asked, "Could it be a two-headed ogre?" ”

"If only it were just a two-headed ogre." She shook her head and said, "It's a purgatory ogre that has undergone mutations due to contact with the blood of the demon god, and it is a very terrifying existence. I didn't need to be tempted by the back, the guy was instinctively attracted by the dark aura escaping from the village, and if I expected it to be right, the slate had lost its original protective power. That village has no strength to resist the catastrophe that will be brought about by the ogres of Purgatory. ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to add your strength? Although Uncle Abu was seriously injured by the monster, didn't he force it back for the time being? ”

"You're wrong, it's not Abu's boy who pushed it back......"

Lin Chen was stunned, looked at Lissar, and saw her nodding.

"It was I who forced the Purgatory Ogre back, before it could completely control the power of the blood of the demon god, however, I also paid a huge price."

The witch rolled up her long sleeves and saw a horrible scar on her arm, which, despite some treatment, still had some of the power of the curse that was slowly eroding her body.

"So, I'll never go back, because the village will soon cease to exist - I can't get rid of that Purgatory Ogre, it will soon recover, and I can't stop it anymore."

Lin Chen frowned, if he wanted to complete the task, he had to convince the witch to help the village. However, it was not that the witch was unwilling to help the village, but she had already done it, but it was only by delaying the disaster that the witch chose to give up. Then, in order to convince the witch to make a move, she must be convinced that she has the power to change all this.

But the witch made it clear that she was no match for the ogre, and it became an endless loop. He couldn't convince the witch at all, he couldn't complete the task!

No, no!

Lin Chen shook his head fiercely, in "Eternity", there is no impossible task, it's just that he didn't find the key breaking point.

So, what information is he ignoring?

Lin Chen quickly recalled his experience in this series of tasks. He first got the news of the ogre from the little boy, and the little boy led him to Abu, and after passing Abu's trial, Abu hoped that he could convince the witch to help, and get the witch's clue from the village elder to come to the gravel forest. During this period, they met Aqua Yanhua again, completed the witch's task together, and then found the witch again here.

That's right! Witch's Quest – Heart of Black Rock!

Lissar's search for the Heart of Black Rock was to refine some kind of potion, and was the potion refined at this time related to the ogre?

Lin Chen made a guess in his heart, and tested the witch, and soon got a positive answer. She had planned to refine a potion that could deal with ogres, but it was not a success.

This potion allows the user to be temporarily immune to the ravages of dark forces, but before the potion takes effect, it will cause the user to experience a complete death, a death that cannot be resurrected by any force.

For Lissar, this is an incomprehensible contradiction, death brings power, but when everyone is dead, how is this power born?

Lin Chen reacted quickly, although he couldn't be resurrected, he was a player, and he could be reborn! In Eternity, resurrection and rebirth are two different concepts, the former refers to the resurrection of a living form in situ after death due to some power, and the latter refers specifically to the player's return to the respawn point after death, the so-called "death return to the city".

Under normal circumstances, if the player dies and is not resurrected in time, he will lose 25% of the experience of the current level, and now that he is still in the novice stage, the loss of death experience is halved, and it is not unacceptable to lose a death.

As long as you can complete this task, you won't have much to lose.

What really made him decide to gamble was to guess that the follow-up quest of this mission would point to the ultimate hidden boss of the novice village - Purgatory Ogre.

"Are you really up to the decision?"

After hearing Lin Chen's plan, the witch looked worried.

Lin Chen replied, "In order to protect all that I cherish, I will not fear any death. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a system prompt.

"Ding!"

"System Prompt: Witch Lissar's opinion of you has been greatly increased."

It's really an unexpected surprise, and it is worthy of the second line that he spent time collecting and reciting before, which can always produce some miraculous effects.

Subsequently, the witch handed the potion to Lin Chen, and Lin Chen saw the complete information of the potion-

Witch's Hope Elixir (Special Consumables)

Effect: Kills after use and cannot be revived by any skills, but can be reborn for 2 hours

Description: A potion specially crafted by Witch Lisal to defeat the Ogre of Purgatory, but it has a fatal flaw.

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, at least in terms of effect, except that he had to experience a death, it would not bring him any serious negative effects.

He no longer hesitated, and drank the potion into his stomach in one gulp, and after a few breaths, his body was abnormal.

His body was getting hot, and as his body was getting hot, the amount of blood was dropping rapidly, and he tried to drink a bottle of blood recovery potion, but it couldn't interrupt the process.

Ten seconds later, his character managed to die.

After a normal player dies, they can retain a soul state that lasts up to 10 minutes, the so-called "Lying Time", with a maximum of 30 minutes in the dungeon. When the player is in a lying state, they can wait for their teammates to apply the resurrection skill to revive on the spot, and will not lose death experience after resurrection.

Due to the death effect of the potion, Lin Chen couldn't enter the time of lying down, so he directly felt a burst of dizziness, and when he woke up, he had already returned to the rebirth point.

Go straight back to the novice village.

"Ding!"

"System Prompt: Since you died in the novice stage, the death penalty is halved, and you lose 625 experience points."

"Ding!"

"System Prompt: Dark Busters status is in effect for 2 hours."

Lin Chen smiled, sure enough, the bet was right, and there were no accidents. He then opens the stats panel and sees the effect of the Dark Buster status - increases Dark Resistance by 20, is immune to low-level Dark debuffs, and increases damage to some dark creatures by 20%.
