Chapter 149: Argus the Cyclops.
"Who is it?"
At the same time that Wang Chen saw this giant eye, the earth began to tremble, and a large piece of quicksand in front of him suddenly began to move, and then Wang Chen realized that it was actually a huge palm that he could not describe.
How big is this palm? Wang Chen estimated that it was more than enough to find a bunch of people to play basketball on it.
A low roar came from the side, a voice full of vicissitudes, unprecedented, but as loud as thunder.
"Who? Who disturbed my slumber? With the sound, a small hill a few hundred meters away 'sit' up. Only then did Wang Chen see clearly that this huge cyclops was lying down before, and his palms were more than ten meters away from his body.
It's unimaginably huge, although Wang Chen has been mentally prepared, but when he sees the tallest giant between heaven and earth, he still feels his scalp tingle and tremble.
Every movement of the cyclops is a shaking of the earth.
The cyclops was much taller than the doppelganger of the evil god he had seen in the cabin in the woods, as if he could poke a hole in the sky with a single stretch of his hand. And this cyclops is like a rock, and if you look closely, it turns out to be the dirt on its skin.
Even a piece of dirt is like a boulder, enough to imagine the enormity of this cyclops.
For the first time, Wang Chen instinctively wanted to probe the other party's attributes, but what he got was a reincarnation space prompt sound.
"Warning! Challenger probing failed! The opponent's comprehensive attributes are more than 1,000 times that of the challenger, and it is recommended that the challenger flee quickly! ”
Ha? That's an exaggeration, right? A thousand times more?
This was Wang Chen's first thought, and he felt incredible, because he himself had ten times the attributes of ordinary people, but the cyclops was more than a thousand times his own, wouldn't it mean that the attributes of the cyclops were ten thousand times that of ordinary people?
You must know that every increase in attributes is a qualitative change in quantity, not a quantity that can be compensated.
For example, even if Wang Chen doesn't use skills, he can face two or three hundred medieval soldiers, and the attribute of cyclops is against the sky?
It's no wonder that Ouranos and Zeus are afraid of their power and imprison them in the dark abyss, this powerful attribute value, even without special abilities, is at the level of a high god.
"Woo~~ Wang Chen, this is the monster you are talking about?"
Tang Meng, who was full of vitality just now, instantly froze, revealing the scared look of a normal little girl, and stupidly hid behind Wang Chen and pointed at the giant eyes that were gradually approaching in the sky.
"Ha, it should ...... Be. Wang Chen smiled reluctantly, staring at the giant eyes in front of him, he couldn't help but feel weak in his heart, and subconsciously urged the divine power to form a circle of light, illuminating the gradually dimming surroundings.
Wang Chen did this to attract the attention of the cyclops, at least, to let him know that he had no ill intentions.
"Human ...... Still is...... Angel? Or, the fallen angels? ”
A dull and heavy voice sounded from the sky, and the huge thunder blinked with one eye, and the arc inside emitted a blue light, and he came closer to look at Wang Chen and Tang Meng.
"You are not an angel, nor are you a fallen angel. It's not just a human being, it's a strange bloodline. Hmph, interesting. ”
The low sound like the friction of stones resounded in the empty clearing, and under this huge thunder-like eye, Wang Chen felt that Yali Mountain was big, not only because of its huge size that made people tremble, but also because of the power contained in its lightning and thunder...... Wang Chen could believe that even a small spark inside could extinguish himself.
Such a strong force...... What a scary creature.
However, now is not the time to be shocked, with the power of the god-king and the iconic thunder, it cannot be the son of Poseidon...... Then its identity is called out.
"Excuse me, are you one of the three giants in charge of thunder, lightning, and thunderbolt?" For the side quest, Wang Chen had no choice but to grit his teeth and step forward to say.
"Huh? You know me and my brothers? ”
Hearing Wang Chen's question, the huge one-eyed suddenly shone with light, which emitted a strong thunderbolt, and at this moment, it was actually full of fire, and countless blue arcs illuminated the entire space.
"That's right! I'm Argus!! The giant god of thunder who has been in charge from the beginning to the present!! ”
As he spoke, the one-eyed man full of blue thunder and lightning stared at Wang Chen, and at the same time, countless crazy thunderbolts also turned into sharp blades, aiming at Wang Chen's direction from afar.
"Who are you and your companions? Why is it here?! Say! Did Zeus send you?! ”
With the thunderous sound of the cyclops, the furious thunder also made a crackling sound, and the entire space was as terrifying as the end of the world.
Wang Chen frowned and glanced at the thunder around him, feeling that his whole body was hairy, so he could only bend down and salute, pretending to reply respectfully.
"Dear Argus Titan, my companions and I are just lost travelers, with nothing to do with the gods of Olympus, and ten thousand have found you while trapped by quicksand. We came here just to know how we could get out of this hapless desert. ”
"Lost guys? It's not easy for you to find here. ”
The voice was silent for a moment, and even the huge one-eyed flickered and dimmed, as if thinking about something.
And during the time when the cyclops was thinking, Tang Meng was like a frightened rabbit, holding Wang Chen's sleeve tightly in his hand, and looked at the thunder around him in panic, as a mage, she was naturally clear about the power contained in it, and these thunders must not be contaminated in the slightest!
Sometimes the more you know, the more afraid you are, Wang Chen also understands Tang Meng's fear of thunder, so he pulled her behind him, and at the same time glanced at her, and smiled at her, so that she didn't have to worry about the thunder around her.
In his opinion, since the cyclops had been talking nonsense with him for so long, it was impossible to kill the two of them easily, it must have something to do with Wang Chen and the others.
Sure enough, as Wang Chen had guessed, the cyclops spoke again a moment later, and the dull voice exploded like thunder.
"Want to get out of here? I can help you, but accordingly, I need your help. ”
It's really a side quest!
Wang Chen was overjoyed in his heart, he finally saw the dawn of hope.
"No problem, as long as we can get us out of here, we'll definitely help." Wang Chen pretended to be very excited and assured the cyclops.
"Haha, funny guy, it's really quick to agree."
The cyclops' voice was obviously much more pleasant, and with his thunderous laughter, the thunder around him gradually receded, which made Wang Chen and Tang Meng both breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, the cyclops' voice rang out again.
"I can tell you very sincerely that my power is about to dissipate, and although there is an unparalleled power in those thunders, I cannot use it to make up for my own losses, because it is the thunder necessary for heaven and earth, and if I use them, the world will collapse due to imbalance."
The cyclops was very emotional, and the thunder in the one-eyed eyes was also constantly churning and bursting out of flashes, and its current situation was that it was clearly guarding a mountain of gold but it was not blessed. I have to say that this guy has a good sense of the overall situation, and he doesn't have the idea of fighting the thunder of the world because of his own losses, which makes Wang Chen a little admired.
Wang Chen was about to ask how to replenish his energy deficit, but he didn't expect the cyclops to speak first.
"I need other energy to replenish, I know that with your strength, you can only have energy crystals below the inferior god at most, so hand over all the energy crystals on your body, and by the way, give me some energy reserves in your body."
"Huh?"
Wang Chen and Tang Meng were stunned. This plot is unfolding too strangely, just now I sincerely asked Wang Chen to help, why did it become a robbery in the blink of an eye?
Isn't the normal plot supposed to be, what kind of ritual or task to do, and go to the outside world to find something domineering and powerful? And then go through some ups and downs to make up for the energy loss of this goods, and save the world, congratulations and so on......
How come we are a scoundrel robbery, not only the energy spar, but also the energy reserves in Wang Chen's body, although the energy reserves can be replenished at any time...... But it also takes a lot of effort, mainly energy crystals, which are valuable props to improve your strength.
"This is a necessary sacrifice, but you can rest assured that when I succeed in coming out, I will repay it a thousand times over, and this is just a drop in the bucket for me." The cyclops' thunderous giant eyes were bright and dark, and he explained to Wang Chen in an unquestionable tone.
Indeed, if it weren't for the fact that he was now imprisoned, he really wouldn't look down on the energy crystals on Wang Chen and the others.
Moreover, Wang Chen and Tang Meng's ears rang with the prompt sound of the reincarnation space.
"Ding! Challenger 190411 encounters Argus, the Cyclops, triggering the request for the hidden side quest: Argus. ”
"Side quest content: Argus, the cyclops, has been imprisoned by Zeus for many years, although he has the thunder of heaven and earth in his body but cannot use it, and now he is extremely weak and needs some energy to replenish, and the source of these energy can only be your energy reserves and some good things in your backpack."
"Side quest rewards: Determine Argus's favorability and follow-up quests depending on the items you take."
"Side quest penalty: Do you think you'll survive if you can't complete the side quest?"
"Do you accept the assignment?"
I didn't expect it to be such a mission! However, looking at the hints of the reincarnation space, there should be follow-up tasks to do, and I can only pray that the rewards after this will make up for the loss.
Wang Chen gritted his teeth, and could only accept the task with certainty, and at the same time began to rummage through his backpack to see if there were any items that could replenish Argus's energy. However, there are not many useful things in his current backpack except for the corpse of the giant dragon, the top-grade spirit stones traded from the mage, and the magical beast crystal nucleus that coexists with light and darkness have long been absorbed, and those with huge energy are only two sub-god-level dragon crystals and the low-level god dragon crystals rewarded by the system.
And these two happen to be one of the most precious things that Wang Chen has.
