The execution efficiency of the dwarves was beyond Qiao Xiu's expectations, Qiao Xiu entrusted the frost axe to help strengthen the mine yesterday, and the next day the frost axe directly prepared the materials and manpower.

The underground mines now dug by Steve are full of dwarves busy.

They solved the problem of lack of oxygen underground with a glowing moss...... The materials for the building are carried directly through the portal.

Today is the tenth day of the construction of the underground cavern, and the gray fog on the battlefield outside the walls has subsided a little.

"Sons of the Forest! There is another pile of glowing stones. ”

As soon as today's project began, Al told Qiao Xiu a good news.

"You've found another vein?"

Josiu turned his head to look at Al's game screen, where her Steve was running around a group of primordial hedrons that glowed pale white.

Al's Steve hasn't run far yet... A tree's roots suddenly stretched out of the dirt above, grabbing Al Steve's control.

A reddish glow emanated from Steve's face, indicating that it was taking ongoing damage.

Ciri, who had been following Qiao Xiu's side, saw this scene, and immediately switched the diamond pickaxe in his hand to an enchanted diamond sword and rushed forward.

The diamond sword slashed at the surface of the roots, though it didn't cut them off... But the attachment to the root is so dense that it almost gives the entire underground space to... The gray mist that was completely enveloped was purified in an instant, and a large part of it was purified.

"Is it the World Tree eroded by the gray mist?"

Qiao Xiu watched as the root retracted into the soil, and Al immediately switched out of the golden apple and began to gnaw on it the moment it hit the ground.

"We're there?"

Ciri also leaned over to Josei's side, holding the mouse in one hand and stuffing the cake in her mouth with the other.

The roots of the dirt popped up again, and these roots gradually took the form of a male human, who looked at the group in front of him through his pupils made of faint light... Blockman.

"What are you?"

A voice like a mixture of men and women came from the human form made of the roots of the tree, and if it were an ordinary living being, he might have understood.

But the humanoid creature made entirely of blocks may have the same strange feeling as a human would have when he saw the gray mist distortion.

"You can still talk... Would you like to communicate with us? ”

Qiao Xiu was sure that this was one of the gray mist consciousnesses that resided in the World Tree, and the hatred and anger that Qiao Xiu had fought in the past were only the type that could not be communicated.

"Out of curiosity, whoever you are... The last thing you will be greeted by your entry into my territory is death, and before you die, I will allow you to tell me your name. ”

His voice was full of pride and contempt, and he didn't see the group of cubemen in front of him as a dangerous enemy.

"Well, remember, our name is Player... You can also understand it as your end. ”

After Qiao Xiu figured out that the other party had planned to make his character into rations, he didn't plan to continue to be polite, and directly switched the diamond pickaxe in his hand to a diamond sword.

"Humble creatures! You don't know my power......"

As soon as the humanoid shape of the roots fell, Steve, who rushed up, was cut into pieces.

"Why do I feel a little uncomfortable?"

Ciri adjusted his perspective to look at the roots scattered on the ground, the gray mist attached to the roots was still wriggling, trying to burrow into the soil and escape.

"These are just some of the gray fog, Caroli, you keep digging into the ground, and I'll plan a new hunt."

Joshua exits Minecraft, an underground passage that transports real-world soldiers to the base camp of Grey Mist.

But in order to completely destroy the consciousness extended by the gray mist, it is also necessary to go deep into the consciousness space of the World Tree to kill them.

In the real world, there are soldiers who are in strife to deal with, and the space of consciousness must of course be handed over to the players who are rifted in the world.

"New event? Is the level cap of the World Rift finally going up? Caroli asked.

Qiao Xiu had been planning to raise the level cap of the World Rift and open a new map half a month ago.

"Well, the new version... It will take some time to adjust. Qiao Xiu nodded, and then looked at the busy dwarven miners behind him, "I hope that this update can kill the gray fog, so that I can happily fish." ”

………………

Demon Realm.

Aibo has been here for almost half a month.

As Qiao Xiu said, the people in the Demon Realm didn't do anything to hurt her, but they didn't give her enough freedom either.

Aibo's life is confined to a manor, and when she tries to leave the manor, she is stopped by a group of people called the Watchers.

This feeling of being monitored made Ai Bo feel quite strange, the duties of the monitor of the Demon Realm are somewhat similar to those of the Inspector of Black Shell City, except that she has changed her identity in the Demon Realm.

As for the reason why Aibo didn't forcibly leave the manor... It's because Lieta loves it.

She has special people to take care of her food and clothing in this manor, and there is a thing called a TV in the manor.

It shows the situation of some unknown cities, and Aibo thinks that a show called "Cat and Mouse" is quite interesting.

Today, Aibo sat in the living room and watched quietly as Lieta was working hard to clear Contra with one life.

The gates of the manor were also pushed open at this moment.

She immediately stood up before she could prepare to face the enemy, the ruler of the Demon Realm... One of them, and also her new guardian, Cersylly, came to the inside of the hall.

"I've already told you that I won't run away as long as Lieta is here, please don't bother us again."

In the past month and a half, Aibo has learned to compromise, including the use of honorifics, but she still does not want the leader of the watchers to 'visit' often.

It made her feel uncomfortable that she was under constant surveillance.

"I don't suspect you of escaping, Aibo... Just wanted to come and talk to you. ”

Naturally, Cecily found a chair and sat down.

"See me?"

Ai Bo looked cautiously at the woman in front of him, this woman inexplicably reminded Ai Bo of his second brother, but compared to the frivolity of the brother, Cecily seemed much calmer and more calm.

"Sit down and talk." Cecily said, gesturing to the chair beside Ebo.

"I've already told you all the information I can tell you, and you'll see me again... Nothing to use. ”

Aibo slowly sat down on the chair, and she looked at Cecily face to face, and always felt that the second princess looked at her strangely.

"It has nothing to do with the intelligence of the Grey Mist, it's just... Something about us. Cecily pondered for a long time before she spoke.

"We? I don't think of you as a friend. ”

Eppo did not identify with Cersylly's way of calling herself, and she had been staying at the manor as a prisoner.

"No, you're one of us, at least not knowing how long ago it was, and—" Cerseily pulled out an old book and showed it to Epo "You... Should have married into our family. ”
