Chapter 200: Suspicions
[Mission information: The mysterious woman who was rescued by Kaino turned out to be Princess Geshia of the Hydra clan, according to her, the Hydra clan is now facing a severe predicament, she asked for your help and your partner's help, are you willing to accept her commission?] 】
Seeing the system mission information in front of them, everyone in the team showed a very surprised expression.
After all, except for Sister Coco, although the rest of the people have been mentally prepared for the identity of this mysterious woman because of Sister Coco's "guess" before, a super background like the princess of the Hydra clan is still beyond everyone's expectations.
The Storm Inland Sea incident has been fermenting for so long, as more and more players participate in the exploration of the plot of the Inland Sea, all kinds of basic information about the Storm Inland Sea have gradually spread in the player circle, and now even the average player knows that the real ruler of the Sea Beast Clan in the Storm Inland Sea is the Hydra clan backed by the Sea Beast King Najlik, and Her Royal Highness the princess of the Hydra clan who reigns in the Storm Inland Sea, which is a truly remarkable big man in the Inland Sea area.
Not only because of the natural nobility of identity, but also because although the patriarchal inheritance of the Hydra clan is a blood relationship inheritance, it does not limit men and women, that is to say, as the second child of the current Hydra patriarch, Hydra Princess Jeshia is the patriarchal heir of the Hydra clan after her royal brother Hydra Prince Yekar.
And there is also a little-known inside story in this, although the succession is in order, but in fact, the talent and strength of Jeshia as the bloodline of the Abyss Hydra are much stronger than her brother, and even because of this, there are still a small number of people in the clan who privately think that Jeshia is actually more qualified to inherit the position of patriarch than her brother Yekar. It's just that there are more people in the clan who always respect traditions, and the relationship between Yekal and Jeshia has always been very close, so the opinions that support Jeshia to become the next patriarch have only been circulated in a small area, and they have not really been fried, but because Jeshiya has become stronger and stronger as she grows older, this statement has not been eliminated.
The back of this inside story is hidden, except for people like Coco Sister who hold the information that the players in the previous life have revealed and explored, but the fact that the Hydra princess Jeshia is also the heir to the second patriarch of the Hydra clan is now clear.
Therefore, after learning the true identity of Jehia through the system, everyone was so surprised, and at the same time, as Coco sister expected, linking Jehya's identity with her current situation of being seriously injured and in distress, coupled with the background of the suspected chaotic invasion of the storm inland sea, everyone suddenly began to make up all kinds of bloody dramas in their minds.
While making up all kinds of conspiracy theories, everyone agreed to accept Jiexia's mission request under the leadership of Coco's sister, and then, Jiexia's face first showed a smile, and then became solemn again.
"Thank you for your willingness to give me a helping hand, as I said before, after some secret investigation, I have found out that the mastermind behind the plot is trying to lay out in the Hydra Islands and completely use the power of chaos to pollute the entire inland sea and cause the entire sea beast clan to be corrupted and corrupted by Chaos. However, when I discovered this secret and planned to secretly return to Neptune Island to tell my father and brother about it, I was attacked by Chaos monsters and demons of unknown origin on the way.
"The timing of this attack was so coincidental, and it was so accurate to grasp my whereabouts, proving that the other side definitely planted an eyeliner on my side somehow. My cronies and I live on Neptune Island all year round, and most of the people who have the ability to do something to us are the people on Neptune Island. As much as I would love to go back to Neptune Island to meet my brother and father, it's the heart of the Hydra Islands, and it's hard for us to get close to it without anyone noticing, and if the mastermind finds out I'm not dead, there's a good chance that a new round of attacks will come immediately.
"So, I want to ask you to take me secretly to a small island near the Hydra Islands, there, I will use the family's special secret method to contact my royal brother, and ask him to bring someone there to meet me, with the elite personal guards of the Hydra clan as a guard, those villains hidden in the dark will naturally not dare to make a mistake, and when we successfully meet with the royal brother and return to Neptune Island, I promise in the name of the princess of the Hydra clan that I will give a reward commensurate with your help."
Jahia's voice fell, and the system's task prompt appeared in front of everyone again. The Ice Shooter and the others, who had roughly understood the cause and effect from Jahia's mouth, did not hesitate to confirm it, but this time, Sister Coco was a step slower.
…… Hey? What's going on?
Coco's sister didn't show it on her face, but in her heart, she was already very confused by the content of the mission released by Jiexia.
So far, the quest process triggered by their team is roughly the same as the strategy post of the guild in the previous life, but the third ring mission recorded in the strategy post of the guild in the previous life was that the Hydra princess asked her to take her to a hidden island near the Hydra Islands to clean up the original sea beast clan and a low-level demon on the island that had completely degenerated into chaotic creatures, and then the fourth ring mission was to take her to the island agreed with the Hydra prince to meet.
As I said before, the guild that took this series of tasks in the previous life was just a small guild, and in the third ring mission, in order to clean up the chaos monsters on the entire island plus the battle of a low-level demon, it consumed most of the family funds that this small guild usually worked hard to save, and then faced an enemy who was stronger than expected in the fourth ring mission, and this small guild was defeated miserably, and finally failed to protect the Hydra princess in the fourth ring mission, so that she fell into the hands of the enemy and was captured, resulting in the failure of the next mission.
Now, the third ring mission in the previous life has disappeared directly, and the fourth ring has been transformed into a third ring mission, which makes Coco's sister a little confused for a while.
"Coco?"
Seeing that only Coco's sister was there in a daze looking at the task prompt for some reason, the Ice Archer and the others looked at each other suspiciously, and Xingguo opened his mouth to remind.
"Ah, sorry, I got distracted by something else."
With that, after Sister Coco, as the captain, pressed the final confirmation button for accepting the mission, she spoke first before Jahia could continue to speak.
"Well, Miss Jeshia, No, Your Highness Jeshia, can I ask you a question?"
Jahia in story mode is not as intelligent as ordinary NPCs, and when she heard Coco's sister's words, Jahia nodded.
"Please."
"Don't we need to do anything more before we go back to see Prince Yekal?"
“?”
"Uh, I mean ......"
Coco's sister felt that it was really hard to say this, since Jeshiati didn't have the matter of the island in the Third Ring Mission in this mission, how could she take the initiative to mention this stubble? After all, the Ice Shooter and the others were still on the side, but they came directly to Koya Island after coming to the Storm Inland Sea and bumped into this important task related to the main plot line of the Inland Sea riots, which was originally a coincidence enough, once she was more "familiar" with the mission process than Geshia, the NPC who released the mission, things would really become difficult to explain.
In the end, Sister Coco decided not to mention the inexplicably disappeared third ring mission, and instead tried to recall the fourth ring mission, that is, the relevant content of the mission that the guild in the previous life finally failed, and then considered the words and spoke.
"Just like Your Highness, you just said, since the other party was able to detect your discovery of his secret in such a timely manner and quickly arrange for the extermination, it means that the intelligence gathering ability of the eyeliner intelligence network mastered by the other party on the Sea King Island of the Hydra clan is very likely to exceed expectations, so isn't it very likely that your move to contact Prince Yekar to come out of the archipelago to meet is also likely to be detected and used by the other party?"
Jahya was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.
"No, the communication between me and the royal brother using the unique contact information between the Hydra royal bloodline will not be noticed by anyone, the royal brother has been investigating this matter as much as I have recently, as the first crown prince, he has enough reason and power to mobilize the personal guards to act with him without anyone suspecting. On our side, I am hiding on the ship of the emissaries of the Goddess of Creation Sect, and the people behind the scenes will naturally not be aware of my approach. ”
Sister Coco blinked, and suddenly seemed to understand something about the Third Ring mission where they had disappeared.
In fact, the third ring mission of the guild in the previous life, from the flow of the entire series of missions, it seems that it is completely unnecessary, and the main goal of the awakened Princess Jehia is to transmit the information she has and the news of surviving the attack back to the Hydra Clan, and there is no reason to slaughter a hopeless Sea Beast Island before this - now it seems that this third ring mission is very likely to be some kind of temptation by Princess Jexia.
In this way, it makes sense that the strategy post in the previous life did not indicate how to gain Jeshia's trust. After all, special props like the Papal Codex are not easy to obtain, and it seems that the small guild in the previous life actually failed to gain the trust of Jeshia after the end of the second ring mission, and this extra inexplicable third ring mission was the "test" assigned to them by Jexia, who was wary of their identity as an alien adventurer, in order to test whether they were complicit in the mastermind behind the chaos pollution.
And now, a papal codex in the hands of Coco's sister has completely won the trust of Jeshia for their identities, and Jeshia naturally did not test their identities again, but went straight to the point.
Sure enough, there is a background, it's good~
Sister Coco is here to sort out the gap between the past life mission and the current life mission alone, and on the other side, after Sister Coco has asked a question, Ice Shooter also asks Jahia his own question.
"Your Highness Jeshia, you want to join up with your royal brother, Prince Yekal, and report the information to him, but have you ever thought that it is actually your royal brother Prince Yekal who has planted an eyeliner around you, secretly sent people to attack you, and even manipulated all these events of Chaos Pollution behind the scenes?"
