"The 'Moonfire Cannon' hit Laddie's body, but I vaguely felt that Laddy was still alive, because I could still feel the natural force emanating from her. But by then, she had been weakened a lot, so it should be easy to deal with her. ”

"I'm sorry, Brother Yang!" Peng Fei blamed himself and said, "It's all because I didn't pay attention to what you said, and the result was ......."

"The result?" Xiao Yangqi asked, "What happened to the result?" Didn't you kill Laddie, then what else could it do? ”

"As a result, Fang Xin died." Wang Hanren said sadly. Xiao Yang's expression suddenly froze.

Peng Fei told Xiao Yang everything that happened just now. From Radi's sneak attack on Xiao Yang that led to Fang Xin's death, all the way to Jill's successful reincarnation, the "sage" suggested that she had become a real player and joined the team.

“…… So that's the case......" Xiao Yang sighed, "Where is Fang Xin's remains?" Don't tell me you threw him into the sea to feed the ichthyosaurs. ”

Peng Fei helped Xiao Yang to visit Fang Xin's body outside the car. Although Xiao Yang couldn't see it clearly, he still greeted Fang Xin's body. The death of another teammate made Xiao Yang extremely depressed, and he almost crushed his teeth. But despite this, Xiao Yang still didn't say a word of sentimentality.

"Brother Yang......" Peng Fei spoke, "I ......"

"Needless to say. Although it was due to your negligence, I was also responsible for it, and I didn't make it clear why Laddy was still alive at the time. Xiao Yang said, "You don't have to blame yourself too much, remember to learn a lesson next time." In this endless hell, we can only keep moving forward, and there is no time to turn back. ”

When Xiao Yang and Peng Fei returned to the flying car, Luo Ruzhi asked, "Captain, Peng Fei said that our mission did not fail, this is ......?"

Xiao Yang interrupted him: "Look at the radar, how many green dots are there on it?" ”

“…… Five. Luo Ruzhi replied.

"Isn't that right? The green dot is a teammate. Judging from the green dot, Jill is indeed already the same as us, and we don't need to care about what she was before. Moreover, since there are a total of five green dots, including Jill, it also means-" Xiao Yang said, "We can complete the main quest and leave here smoothly." ”

"Not necessarily." Rena's voice rang out in the cavity. The next moment, she had already appeared in front of everyone.

"Are you going to kill us too?" Xiao Yang asked.

"I want to do the same." Rena shrugged, "Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to summon creatures to attack, killing you would be like suicide, so I wouldn't be that stupid." ”

"And what are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to come and have a look. See how you who don't listen to my advice will struggle in the face of a desperate fate. ”

Xiao Yang frowned: "Don't listen to you?" Desperate fate? What the hell are you talking about? ”

"Purgatory quest, the player chooses to start at random." Xiao Yang paused when he heard the voice of the "sage" in his head, and then continued, "Congratulations on being chosen. Be prepared for the mission to start in five minutes. ”

"Damn, what purgatory mission? Am I chosen again? Xiao Yang was confused and knocked on his temples vigorously, "Who else has been chosen?" ”

"I was chosen, too." "And me."

Luo Ruzhi and Jill were selected, while Peng Fei and Wang Hanren were not.

"Congratulations. Take your time and go on the purgatory mission. Rena sighed, "Originally, you just had to listen to me and not kill Laddie." As long as the conditions for the death of the five Soul Hookers are not met, the Purgatory quest will not be triggered. You must know that the mission of purgatory is absolutely impossible for you to complete. ”

"Don't be complacent, Rena." Xiao Yang said indifferently, "There are infinite possibilities in the hell game. Even the Radi, who is many times stronger than us, has been planted on us, and I believe that as long as we work hard, there is nothing that we can't do. ”

"Then I'll wait and see." Rena flew up and smiled indifferently, "Goodbye." ”

Her figure quickly disappeared into the air. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This elusive and inexplicable soul messenger is finally gone.

"The Purgatory mission begins now. Quest Tip: Find the Son of 'Ig', the old ruler of the hidden original Cthulhu Mythos, on the island and remove its scales. Special Warning: The penalty for failing this mission is extremely severe, so please work hard to complete it. ”

The "sages'" hint about the Purgatory mission has arrived as scheduled.

After Xiao Yang listened to the task prompt of the "sage", he only felt that countless question marks popped up in his mind. It's understandable to hide the original text, Cui Wenren has said before that there are secondary original texts in the task in addition to the main original texts, so it's not surprising that there are hidden original texts. They're called hidden texts, mostly because it's hard to come across something that belongs to them in the scene. It is precisely because "Cthulhu Mythos" is the hidden original text of this level that the whole team has not encountered anything in this scene for so long.

However, for "The Cthulhu Mythos", Xiao Yang has only heard of this term by chance, and the specific situation is not clear. As for the Old Dominator, the "Son of Ig", he had never heard of it.

When Xiao Yang asked the others, Luo Ruzhi said, "I know this." In my free time from the war, I read quite a few English novels, including The Cthulhu Mythos. The Cthulhu Mythos is a collective term for many novels written by many fantasy writers in Western Europe based on the same system of alternate mythological worlds. Even Stephen King, the king of European and American horror novels, wrote The Cthulhu Mythos. ”

Xiao Yang asked, "So, what are the old rulers, the 'sons of Ig'?" ”

"The Old Ruler is the collective name for some of the most powerful evil xenomorphs in the Cthulhu Mythos, and they are considered demons. One of the Old Dominators, Ig is nicknamed 'Father of Serpents' or 'Snake Ancestor God', and is half-snake, half-human with bat wings. The 'Son of Ig' is Ig's serpentine servant. They are said to be large and small, and their main areas of activity are the sea and land, but they can also be suspended in the air. Luo Ruzhi said.

After listening to this, Xiao Yang asked, "Listening to you say this, this kind of thing seems to be very tricky?" ”

Luo Ruzhi nodded: "According to the records in the Cthulhu Mythos, the Old Dominators are not something that humans can fight against at all, because they are completely different dimensional creatures from humans. The servants of the Old Dominators also possess terrifying abilities. ”

At this time, Peng Fei spoke: "Brother Yang, you don't have to worry. As soon as you find it, I'll help you remove its scales. Anyway, my body is barely immortal, and it shouldn't be a problem to desperately remove a scale. ”

“…… Well, then I'm bothering you. Xiao Yang was not polite to Peng Fei. He knew that his body could barely move now, and he couldn't do anything. In this case, the strongest combat power that the team can rely on is Peng Fei.

There is a short time left for everyone. Luo Ruzhi drove the flying car out of the cavity, flew above the sea, and began to look for the figure of the "son of Yige".

At the beginning, because Xiao Yang's eyesight had not fully recovered, he could only rely on other people in the car to search from the air. Luckily, it dawned early on the island, and it didn't take long for the morning sun to be seen, making their search a little easier.

At Luo's suggestion, they took a spiral-shaped flight path similar to a mosquito coil. When searching on the battlefield, this is sometimes done so that it is not easy to miss something.

After almost half an hour, Xiao Yang's eyesight basically recovered. This is undoubtedly the best news for everyone, and the speed of the search has been greatly accelerated because of this.

Perhaps because most of the flying dinosaurs were annihilated by the "Moonfire Cannon", the flying cars flew through the air unhindered and did not encounter any enemies. This also made the progress of the search unaffected.

However, the search did not go well. Although they searched the entire island twice in a spiral route, they still did not see the shadow of the "Children of Ig".

Before you know it, there is only one hour left. Everyone in the car became agitated. Xiao Yang's eyebrows also showed a worried look.

In fact, the main quest should be completed by then, and the problem is this purgatory quest. The sages said that the punishment would be heavy after the failure of this mission, but Xiao Yang believed that it would definitely not affect the main quest, and at most it would be a ruthless deduction of some karmic fire points. Xiao Yang's own karmic fire points have been capped at this level, and there should be no problem with how to deduct them, but Luo Ruzhi and Jill are different. Especially that Jill, she has just joined the team, and the points are still zero, and she will definitely lose if she deducts it. In any case, the Inferno mission must be successfully completed.

However, things don't always go your way. Twenty more minutes passed, but they still hadn't found the slightest trace of the "Son of Iggy".

The clock is ticking. The faces of the people in the team became more and more ugly. The possibility of completing the mission of Purgatory is becoming more and more remote.

When the car made the third lap around the island, there was only half an hour left. To add insult to injury, the island is foggy. The fog was getting thicker and thicker, and within a few minutes the whole island was covered in fog, and nothing could be seen clearly. The speeding car can only slow down and move forward slowly.

"This fog again!" Luo Ruzhi couldn't hide the anxiety in his heart, "What can I do!" ”

When Xiao Yang and the others first arrived on this island, they encountered a heavy fog at sea. At that time, they also experienced a lot of dangers in the fog, and now they still make people feel palpitations when they think about it.

Xiao Yang thought back to the scene at that time, and the image of a monster he had seen in the fog suddenly appeared in his mind. No, not a full image, exactly, but just a pair of half-human-tall golden eyes of the monster. It was a red-dot level monster, and at that time, Xiao Sunshine felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar when he saw it, and he felt that his strength was like an ant in front of that thing. Looking back now, I'm afraid that all the combat power of Radi's air legion combined, there is no way to compare with that thing.

Xiao Yang couldn't help but think in his heart: Could that thing be the "Son of Ig" or the deity of Ig?

However, this is no longer verifiable. At that time, Xiao Yang's fear of that thing reached the extreme, and he immediately used a teleportation gun to transmit it to the sea of a thousand meters under his feet.

At that time, such a judgment was undoubtedly very correct. But if it is really the "son of Ig" that everyone is looking for, then it can be said that fate has made people.

Xiao Yang clenched his right hand, which had just regained his senses, into a fist and slapped his forehead. Bastard, how the hell are you going to find that thing!

"Luo Ruzhi, there is no record in the Cthulhu Mythos that the 'Son of Ig' will appear under what circumstances?" Peng Fei suddenly asked Luo Ruzhi.

"There aren't many records of Ig, except that he was a very irascible old ruler with moody moods." Luo Ruzhi said, "As for the 'son of Ig', I have to think again......"

"'The son of Ig' is Ig's servant. When will Eagle send his own servants? Xiao Yang interjected and asked.

"When it is angry, it will send the 'Children of Ig' to attack its enemies or turn them into inhuman monsters." Luo Ruzhi said.

"That is, just make Ig angry." Peng Fei came to a conclusion.

The method that Peng Fei thought of to "make Yige angry" was to ask everyone to keep abusing and cursing Yige with ugly words. According to Luo Ruzhi, the old rulers all had extremely sensitive hearing, even much stronger than Xiao Yang's super hearing. Words with strong emotions, such as curses and invective, are the easiest to reach their ears.

Everyone cursed as much as they could, Ig, whom they had never met. The one who scolded the most was Luo Ruzhi, and he even used swear words in seven or eight languages. He had traveled to many countries when he was a mercenary, and he remembered the curses in those places clearly. The others were not to be outdone, and even Wang Hanren and Jill scolded very badly. Everyone has been suppressed for too long, and they usually don't have the energy to scold their mother, but now they have seized such an opportunity to scold Yige's parents and ancestors out of the soil.

Xiao Yang moistened his dry lips and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Everyone had been scolding Yige for more than ten minutes, and now there were not even twenty minutes left. Can this really call out the "Son of Ig"? If it was really buried in the ground by its own teleportation gun, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to get out, right?

Just as he was thinking this, a gust of wind suddenly rose in the fog. The wind was not strong, but it was extremely cold, and Xiao Yang's skin had goosebumps.

Then, that thing appeared. First there were a pair of half-sized golden eyes, then a gray-and-black head, and two pairs of tusks as white as snow. The sight of this thing was terrifying, and when its full appearance was presented to everyone, they all unconsciously stopped cursing and stared at it blankly.

Its overall silhouette is serpentine, but it's definitely not much of a snake. Xiao Yang even doubted that this kind of thing could be called a living thing. In fact, the only part of the snake's body that can be seen clearly is the upper part of the head. The lower half of its head and its entire body seemed to be made up of gray-green gas, vague and chaotic, as if it had no entity at all. The chaotic body was inlaid with a few dark green scales, and even these scales looked like they had been drawn with a pen, and there was no sense of actual existence at all.

"I-G-" The evil creature spat out the muffled words and bent down in the direction of the speeding car.

"Ahh Luo Ruzhi screamed and pulled the lever, turned around and fled.

"Wait! How can you escape now! ”

As soon as Peng Fei said this, he found that he was wrong, and Luo Ruzhi's judgment was extremely correct. A thick rope that seemed to be made of black mist chased after him from behind, striking Peng Fei's wings that had spread out to keep the flying car balanced. If Luo Ruzhi started the flying car a little slower, he would be hit by the tail of the flying car.

Peng Fei looked at his hit right flank in amazement. There was no trauma at all, and there was no pain coming from it. No, it didn't even feel like it was dead at all. Peng Fei was no longer even able to control his right flank to make any moves.

And it quickly got worse. Peng Fei's right wing began to change, its ends blurring like the body of the serpentine creature. Peng Fei slashed off his right wing in a panic, but instead blurred more quickly, completely turning into a chaotic red mist in a few seconds. As if it had gained life, it pounced in the direction of the speeding car with its teeth and claws.

Gil and Wang Hanren, who were sitting in the back seat, hurriedly opened fire on Peng Fei's mutated right flank. The bullet passed directly through it and did not cause any damage to it.

The speed of the red mist was extremely fast, and even with Luo Ruzhi's skillful driving skills, it could not prevent the distance between the two sides from being shortened and shortened.

Luo Ruzhi chose to make a sharp turn to the right. But the red mist seemed to see through his intentions, and took a shortcut to the right in advance, but came to the car faster. It expanded into the shape of a fishing net and shrouded down towards the people in the car.

Xiao Yang let out a low roar, and a miniature spiny dragon appeared on his right shoulder, which he had just moved. The spiny dragon head opened its long mouth and bit towards the netted red mist!

The spiny dragon sucked the red mist into its mouth and swallowed it. Xiao Yang didn't have time to relax, but found that the parts of the spiny dragon that came into contact with the red mist also began to be chaotic, and he hurriedly lifted the beast's body, letting the spiny dragon disappear into the air.

Xiao Yang leaned back in his seat and took a deep breath. After releasing the "Moonfire Light Cannon", his natural power was completely exhausted, and it took a few hours to recover a little, and this time the "beast body" used up all this natural power. At this time, there are no major eruptions of natural forces such as volcanic earthquakes in the vicinity, and it is impossible to absorb natural forces. In other words, Xiao Yang has run out of ammunition.

Xiao Yang turned his head with difficulty and looked behind him. The pair of iconic big golden eyes were not visible in the fog, and perhaps the speeding car had already shaken off the big monster that was most likely the "Son of Ig".

"My God!" "Oh my God!" "Ahh Everyone else in the car suddenly exclaimed. Xiao Yang turned his head to look at the front again, only to find that the serpentine monster was less than a hundred meters in front of the flying car, staring at the car with its big eyes!

Luo Ruzhi hurriedly turned around and prepared to escape, but the monster stayed where it was and did not catch up with the flying car.

But within a few minutes of the speeding car moving forward, everyone found the big monster right in front of the car!

"Damn the devil!" Luo Ruzhi slammed his fist on the car door, "It's as if it can teleport!" ”
