Chapter 68: A New Mission

(There was a slight mistake in the previous article, Emily's soul strength level is 4.) οΌ‰

"Is this your result? What a surprise......"

After listening to Chu Ge tell all the ins and outs of the past few days, Eddie digested it for a while, and then nodded and glanced at Chu Ge intriguingly,

"Actually made such a big mess, you will really cause trouble for people, although almost all the dead are servants in the manor, but sixty-three lives are still not a small number, and when the above comes to accountability, it is also very troublesome to conceal, not to mention that there is also a guard from the city lord's mansion among the dead this time, Petra will be busy for a long time this time......"

"Even if it's a mess, it's not too hard for you to deal with, right?" Chu Ge immediately interrupted Eddie's complaints.

If he wished, our magistrate would have avoided this accident, or at least the deaths of his minions, but he didn't! And after this incident, he didn't show any substantive emotions, not even a little self-blame, even if he was responsible for the death of these people!

Seeing that Eddie was able to face this matter with such an indifferent attitude, Chu Ge once again understood why the other party in his previous life was able to follow Herelis so unswervingly and follow her.

In a way, the two are really similar.

Eddie shook his head and sighed lightly, and said very indifferently:

"If something goes wrong with the eldest lady named Alyssa this time, don't talk about Petra, everyone in the manor is to blame, and my trouble is probably not small!"

"The reason why this matter is so easy to deal with is because the eldest lady has done a lot of hard work, said a lot of good things for Petra, and constantly took the fault of this incident on herself......"

Speaking of this, the administrative officer glanced at Chu Ge with a smile.

He knew that Alyssa and Chu Ge had lived and died together on the magic energy train, and this incident was undoubtedly caused by Chu Ge, but Alyssa was willing to take the initiative to take responsibility, which was very interesting.

"It's a long story, but I'm not in the mood to share it with you."

Regarding Eddie's guess, Chu Ge neither defended it nor nodded in agreement, since the other party likes to guess, let him keep guessing.

"That's a shame." Add shrugged his shoulders and began to breathe slowly as he ignited the cigarette, his face becoming serious,

"No matter what happened in the course of this incident, but you did meet my requirements, and I recognize your ability!"

When the last word of the administrative officer was finished, Noah's prompt immediately sounded in Chu Ge's mind:

"Tip: ...... in data wrangling"

"Tip: Extensions are injected into ......"

"Hint: Co-Worker 0701 has completed Consecutive Mission (Step 2): Intervention!"

"Hint: The remaining time of the host task is detected to be three days, and the task evaluation has been improved!"

"Hint: The host has been detected to have caused the death of too many innocent people during the mission, and the mission evaluation has dropped!"

"Hint: Detected that the critical point related to the host quest reward has been reached, and your reward has been boosted! You can choose to claim the mission rewards, or accumulate the rewards and start the Consecutive Missions (Step 3): Vortex! ”

"Warning: Continuous Quest (Step 3): The Vortex difficulty level fluctuates at any time and lasts for a long time, so please choose carefully!"

Needless to say?

"Reward accumulation, start the next consecutive mission!"

After the selection was over, the green smoke in Eddie's bowl suddenly rose, and the content of the continuous mission was once again presented in front of Chu Ge's eyes:

"Continuous Mission (Step 3): Vortex!"

"Starting difficulty: N/A."

"Brief Description: After your first battle with the Alien Beasts, you have come to realize the dangers of the Old Gods and their minions to this world, and it is your duty to take on the responsibility of destroying them as part of the enemies of the living!"

"Although the name of the enemy of the living has long since disappeared, their former greatness will still be remembered, and their power is also hidden in those information, only if you succeed in finding that information, you will have the ability to cross the sea in the future and play a game!"

"Mission Objectives: Find the Hidden Secret Word (0/5), kill the low-level Alien Beast (0/20), kill the low-level elite Alien Beast (0/5), and kill the high-level Alien Beast (0/1)!"

"Quest Tip: There is no time limit for this quest to be completed, but you must keep the Blood Gems replenished every month, otherwise the continuous accumulation will be emptied!"

"Mission Description: Whether it's a high-level alien beast or a second-level elite alien beast, it's not something you can deal with now, if you meet them, run for your life!"

Looking at this third-step continuous task called "Vortex", Chu Ge stretched out his index finger and pressed his temples hard.

Keeping the Blood Gem replenished every month undoubtedly forced him to find the Alien Beast to fight.

The strength of low-level alien beasts corresponds to second-order creatures, low-level elites correspond to third-order creatures, and high-level alien beasts are extraordinary, and Emily's strength after alienation is already the top of the low-level alienated beasts.

Just counting these alien beasts to be killed, the difficulty of this mission is enough to reach A-level, not to mention that there are other requirements! Chu Ge even had a hunch that the difficulty of collecting the so-called five secret words might not be much lower than killing the alien beast!

This is not something that can be done overnight!

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Chu Ge suddenly fell silent, Eddie couldn't help but ask.

Chu Ge shook his head and said:

"It's nothing, it's just thinking about the future...... What do I do when I become a member of the Enemy of Life? ”

"A member of the Enemy of the Living?" Add was stunned for a moment, then sneered and said,

"Although I have already approved of you, with your little strength, even if you go to the Templar and say that you are a heretic of the enemy of the living, I don't think anyone will believe it. Let's take your time to improve your strength and use the power of the enemy of the living to perfection. By the way, what kind of power did you gain this time? The power of abomination? Or is it the power of sin? ”

Chu Ge raised his right hand and released a [Nightmare Marker] at Eddie, and then showed the manifest sin power mark to the other party.

"Hmm...... The power of sin, it's a shame that you can complete this mission, if you get the power of abomination, maybe it will be easier to complete. ”

Eddie was completely unaware that he had been corrupted by the Nightmare mark, and instead sighed, as if he was very aware of the power of sin.

"Increases the power of the enemies of the living...... In other words, you have to keep killing alien beasts. ”

Chu Ge nodded, and then asked the question that he had been puzzled about before:

"By the way, you and Emily must have known each other for a long time, why did she become a potential alien?" Although Emily wrote a lot of things in her diary, many of them were essays, and there was not much to tell about them.

Eddie raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Chu Ge to ask this.

After a little hesitation, the magistrate felt that there was no need to hide this, so he smoked his pipe and spoke slowly:

"About her, let's talk about the battle when the enemy of the living was destroyed twenty years ago, she was one of the survivors of that war, but she was only an innocent person affected by the power of the old gods, and she had no connection with the enemy of the living."

"Although she was maliciously eroded on the spot, she still survived strongly......

"Wait, do you mean that she already knew she was a potential alien, and it was twenty years ago?!" Although he knew that his interruption was very inappropriate, Chu Ge still exclaimed.

Perhaps understanding the shock in Chu Ge's heart, Eddie's face did not show dissatisfaction, but nodded and revealed a little reminiscence,

"That's right, she's been under malicious attack for twenty years, and even if she doesn't fully understand what it's all about, she probably knows something about it."

Although the accuracy of the news was affirmed by Eddie, Chu Ge was still a little unbelievable, and said:

"It's been 20 years...... Does such a thing really exist? Isn't it true that the old gods doze off after a beating? ”

Of course, this is impossible, but Eddie does not deny this nonsense speculation, he says:

"Perhaps, the world is always full of miracles."

"You know what? When I found her, she had just crawled out of the blood of the legendary alien beast, covered in worm-like black blood! There is no doubt that those blood contain the most intense power of the ancient gods! ”

After hearing Eddie's words, Chu Ge quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not to mention the legendary alien beast, even if it is a high-level alien beast, if it is injured by it with the power of the ancient gods in the process of fighting with it, even if it succeeds in surviving, the rest of the days will be dominated by the dreams of the ancient gods, even the extraordinary powerhouses will not be an exception!

That's not just affecting the physical body, it's more about planting seeds directly in the void of the heart, even if it's a powerful guy, it will be changed little by little in the subtle way, and it can't be prevented!

Of course, as an expert in this area, the Enemy of Living Souls and the Healing Church would not have a headache for this kind of problem, but the current Chu Ge has not yet reached that level.

"Emily was only seven years old at the time! Normally, as a young child, even if she was not alienated on the spot, it was inevitable that she would fall into a deep sleep, but she slowly crawled out of it with her eyes wide open! ”

"At that moment, I even thought that the nemesis of the ancient gods had finally appeared, thinking that she would not be corrupted by the ancient gods, but after careful observation, I found that she was indeed affected by malice, but the effect was not obvious, as if she was suppressed by a strong spiritual power!"

Speaking of this, Eddie glanced at Chu Ge and said word by word:

"As far as I know, after being enveloped and eroded by that concentration of the blood of the ancient gods, I can still keep my spirit awake, and even continue to fight against malice......"

"Unheard of!"

Now Chu Ge's face was no longer surprised, but looked at Eddie with an extremely strange expression.

"I know what you want to say, there are indeed enemies of living beings who resist malicious intent, but those can only be used as a protective means before being maliciously corrupted, and we don't have any good ways to deal with those who have been maliciously corrupted."

Add shook his head and continued,

"After that, I took her in, because I was afraid that she would suddenly become alienated one day, so I never dared to let her have any spiritual knowledge and let her work with Petra."

"A lot has happened between us in the past twenty years, but you hairy boy doesn't know about it...... Hey? What's that expression on your face? You don't know everything, do you? ”

Looking at the teasing expression on Chu Ge's face, Eddie felt a little bad in his heart.

"It's okay, I only know a little bit, I didn't expect you to be quite attractive!"

Chu Ge shrugged his shoulders, saved a little face for His Excellency the Government Officer, and responded very implicitly.

When he was fighting with the alienated Emily before, he didn't understand one thing very much, that is, Emily, who was originally an ordinary person, actually had the level of a second-order peak directly after being alienated, which was already comparable to the effect of Nevon Moore's heart!

Now, this doubt has almost been solved in his heart, not that the old gods are too powerful, but that Emily is too special!

After explaining this to Add, the administrative officer was silent for a while, and then slowly exhaled, and said with a complicated expression:

"If that hadn't happened, if she had been able to use the body given by God to the fullest, she would have taken a different path in her life."

"She's not like me......"

Chu Ge agreed very much with Eddie's point of view, being able to have a fourth-level strength soul with first-order strength can only be said to be God's preference.

It's a pity that God is jealous of talents.

"By the way, you know her state, why do you want to let her work in the manor? Why not just end her suffering? Chu Ge suddenly remembered this.

Add looked up at the window and muttered at the corners of his mouth:

"Why not...... Who knows, maybe it's just to witness a miracle. ”

Although she always puts on a cold face, she is actually a kind-hearted child. It's a pity that the erosion of malice has been ingrained in the past 20 years, and any little negative emotions may be infinitely amplified! ”

"The best way to fight the Old Gods is to not have any negative emotions, but how is that possible?"

"Although I was shocked by her miracles, it is a pity that she was only a mortal after all, and she was not able to perform miracles again......"

"Want to witness a miracle......

Chu Ge suddenly remembered the question he asked Eddie in his previous life,

Why did you choose to follow Hereris? 】

[Who knows, maybe it's just to witness the miracle that may exist.] 】

Is this the thinking of supermen......

Chu Ge shook his head, leaving these strange things behind, and looked at Eddie and asked with interest:

"Since what happened between you and Emily (referring to the one in Emily's diary), Emily must be important to you. Why can't I see a trace of sadness in your face when such an important dead man is gone? Or have you been mentally prepared for it a long time ago and forcibly held back? ”

This question was already a bit excessive, but Eddie didn't avoid it, and just said lightly:

"For me, who has been experiencing this kind of thing since I was sensible, I have long been numb. No, it's not so much numbness, but rather that I forced myself to choose indifference, so that sadness and this kind of thing disappeared from my emotions forever. ”

"If I hadn't done this, probably I would have been driven crazy a long time ago, just like Sorge, to the extreme!"

Did you erase your sorrow...... It's you.

Chu Ge bowed slightly, compared to Eddie, he was far inferior in this regard.

"Midgar is full of flowers!"

After a moment of silence, Mr. Administrative Officer suddenly spoke out of nowhere.

"What......" Before Chu Ge's words could be asked, Noah's prompt had already come:

"Hint: The host has successfully obtained the Hidden Whisper (1/5), please keep working hard to collect it!"

Add placed his pipe on the table and walked out the door:

"As a recognition of you, this can be regarded as a little gift from me, although it may not be of much use to you now, but I believe that one day you can grow to the point where you can use it!"

【Midgar full of flowers】

Chu Ge pondered for a few seconds, and found that he really couldn't comprehend anything from it, and just when he was a little entangled, Eddie had already returned.

He held an envelope tattooed with golden powder in his hand and handed it to Chu Ge:

"It's a thank you note from Petra, and it comes with an invitation ticket to Midgar's annual auction extravaganza...... Say yes in advance, I'm not going to lend you money. ”
