Chapter 516: Chewing Demon Island (22)
"What the hell are you and Routter plotting?"
That's the question the statue asks.
Before the words fell, the expressions of the four teammates behind Brother Jue all changed abruptly.
And Feng didn't realize it, but hesitated for a second...... Then he calmly raised the unbitten hand, pressed it on his shoulder, and replied, "Nothing." ”
As soon as these words came out, a shimmer of light bloomed from the spell sigil on his shoulder, and then dissipated.
Silence descended on the stone chamber, and for a moment, only the sound of the players' breathing could be heard.
After five seconds, the statue silently let go. Jue Ge took advantage of the situation to withdraw his arm and took out the object in the statue's mouth.
"Whew...... It's finally fooled. Feng Bujue rubbed his arm and read with a relieved expression.
At this time, the description menu of the item in his hand was also unlocked by the system (although he held it in his hand just now, he couldn't view the item description):
[Name: Old Poké Ball that has never been used]
【Type: Others】
【Quality: Excellent】
[Special Effect: Can capture and save a Phantom Beast in the Crystal Maze]
【Conditions of use: Choose Ivre as your faith】
[Can I bring out the script: No]
[Notes: I hate Pikachu!] From the bottom of my heart! 】
"Aha! It is another item that can reduce the difficulty of clearing the level. Feng Bujue looked up after reading the explanation and said, "I'll just say that it's beneficial to explore, right?" ”
But...... No one paid any attention to him......
At this moment, the other four players, including Little Pony, all looked at them with a naked, skeptical gaze...... Squinted at Brother Jue.
"What's wrong?" Feng Bujue pretended to be casual and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"You, and Root...... In the end, in the conspiracy...... What the? Honghu stared at Brother Jue and said word by word.
Feng Bujue replied innocently, "Didn't I say nothing?" ”
"yes...... When you say this, you also consume the sigil that Lesende gave you......" Traces continued.
"That's just proof......," replied Uncle Scrapwood. You and Rutte are indeed plotting something. ”
"I don't know what the situation is now, but everyone is standing up and squinting at you, so I'll come over and join in the fun, and you guys will continue to ......," the whimsy continued.
"Okay...... Okay......" Feng Bujue said, "I discussed some things with Rute. He spread his hands as if it weren't a big deal, "But what about the specifics...... I have no comment. ”
"You're not easy...... Honghu cupped his glasses, "we thought you were killed with Rutte." He sneered, "I didn't expect it...... In that case, neither you nor she died. And it turned into a partnership? ”
"So what?" Feng Bujue asked rhetorically. "There are no eternal enemies in this world. Only eternal benefits. He shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Isn't it weird to make some deals with the boss or something?" ”
Feng unconsciously used the word "boss". And let your tone seem understated and taken for granted. Because...... In the eyes of other players, it's still a game after all; No matter what happens in the Battle for the Crown, they will still think...... What I encountered was just a group of rare high-intelligence NPCs and some relatively unique script settings.
"Uh...... I can understand what you say. Uncle Waste Chai thought for a few seconds and replied. As a man who captures boss-level monsters back to the landing space and turns them into little assistants, he is naturally not surprised by all kinds of situations.
"Ah...... Anyway, I'm just a spectator watching the game in the mall, and I don't have a deep grudge against that boss, so I don't care. He spread his hands, his words filled with a hint of sadness......
"Hey...... What are you doing? Honghu said unhappily, "Have I become the only one who is making a fuss?" This guy has a relationship with the final boss in the 'Big Event'. It's normal for me to be amazed. ”
"Hmm...... It didn't seem like a big deal, but I was relieved that I couldn't figure out the situation. "Imaginatively picked up a cute nonsense again, and angrily brushed the zài feeling.
"If it's okay, move on." Feng Bujue put the Poké Ball in his bag and picked up his catapult again (when he was bitten by the statue, the hand on his outside put the catapult on the ground). "Who's that, go and push the door, hurry."
A few more words were uttered, and then they headed for the portal to the next level.
At this point, what the teammates didn't know was...... On the surface, he was silent and answered, but his heart was already full of suspicions.
As a matter of fact...... When the statue asked that question, Feng Bujue was the most shocked of the five. Although he did not come out of the face, his mind has been pondering one question all the time since then: why did the mouth of truth ask him about him and Root?
"It's true that this is the main universe of Horrorland, but how could a statue hidden in the underground temple of Chew Demon Island that may not even be self-conscious, ask me such a thing?" Feng Bujue said in his heart, "The matter between me and Rute obviously has nothing to do with this script, so this issue will never be arranged systematically." So...... Could it be that the premise of this statue is to 'probe the secrets that cannot be told in the other person's mind and ask questions'? He quickly dismissed this inference, "No, this kind of setting obviously raises a lot of problems, and it's possible if it's a solo book, but in a team book, the questions themselves can directly leak the player's privacy." ”
After putting aside several possibilities, Feng Bujue thought of a more reliable answer: "Hmph...... Looks like there's a 'very powerful' guy doing the trick...... Who could it be? He thought to himself, "Someone who has the ability to control the original number of the statue outside the script, and has the motivation to ask me that question......" A list of suspects was about to come out, "The first thing that can be ruled out is Woody, he can't do such a thing; 'Zero'...... It is more likely, perhaps he has already gotten some rumors, so he has this trick; There are also two other leaders of the Source Order, who are equally motivated; Other than that...... It cannot be ruled out that it was Root himself who wanted to test me; At last...... Although it is extremely unlikely, I may have been targeted by the 'Nine Branches', and with their technical strength, I should be able to do what I just did. ”
While Jue Ge was thinking, Honghu had already passed through the movable door of this floor and completed the preliminary survey of the floor below.
"Come down, safe."
As the shouts of the birds rang out, everyone entered the third floor of the temple of faith (counting from top to bottom...... RP
