Chapter Ninety-Eight: A New Mission
Side Mission: Escort Andanlaw back to the Adventure, now with a changed mission objective.
Since the Adventure has been overrun by bugs, and Andanlao and the crew of the Adventure are no longer able to return, Andanlao asks for your help in clearing the monsters, retaking the ship, and sending a message calling for the return of the lost crew of the Adventure. The maximum reward for the mission is 3000, the specific reward depends on the mood of Andanlao, the current 21 lost crew members, 100 bounty will be deducted for each death, of which 1000 bounty will be deducted if Andanlao's lover Deliscu dies.
Tasks have no time limit.
…………
After receiving this information, all three of them opened their mouths in surprise, this task ...... Fuck it's a bounty! And the bounty is the key to winning this competition!
The three of them returned to the private chat mode in the cave again, Ma Le slapped his thigh and said in a low voice: "Boss Xie, can't you do it?" ”
Xie Wen pondered for a while: "Naturally, it's just ......" Saying, Xie Wen raised his eyes and glanced at the snow owl, and when the girl saw it, she sighed and said: "Captain, you don't have to think about me, it's still important to ...... game."
Xie Wen smiled, shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about this, it's just that this reward is really strange!" Actually, I wanted to say when I received the escort mission before, and it is understandable to receive a mission in the mission world, but this is the competition world! I also got benefits from the characters in the Tales of the Night world, but those actions didn't trigger the system's prompt, that is, they weren't system-approved quests! ”
"Oh, that time is that, this time is this time!" Ma Le felt that it didn't matter, there were tasks and rewards, and he was very happy.
Xie Wen shook his head: "It's different, brother gourmet, do you recall, the Tomb Raider World is also grand and complex, but have you ever received a task prompted by the system?" ”
As soon as he mentioned this, Ma Le suddenly remembered the bet he received when he confronted Himiko, Himiko asked him to attack three times, let him go if he succeeded, and sacrifice his soul if he failed. At the same time as Ma Le accepted, he also received a prompt from the system, but unlike this time, it was he who agreed verbally first, and the system judged that he accepted the gambling contract, so he forcibly released the task, but did not first put out the task conditions for him to choose. To put it bluntly, this is more like the overlord clause released by Himiko, because this storm queen is the supreme being of this world, and her power is enough to influence the direction of the world's changes, so it will have this effect. But this time is different, an ordinary woman, a simple request, let the system release the task, this is indeed a bit unusual......
Seeing Ma Le frowning and sinking, Xie Wen smiled and said: "It seems that there is no, the same competition world with a plot, why does this King Kong world have a task?" ”
"Maybe this world is different?" The snowy owl asked rhetorically, "After all, it's a team world, and it's supposed to be a little different from the general competition world!" ”
Xie Wen nodded and said: "I have also considered this problem, but recall that we used to save people, break into the Bug Canyon, and have been with the characters in the plot, but we didn't even have half a mission, but when it came to this heroine, two missions were released in a row." What's even more incredible is that the first mission didn't mention the reward in half a sentence, but this time, it directly rewarded bounty points! This is an indicator that affects the outcome of the game, and the world description states that it can only be obtained by hunting monsters and collecting corpses, and there is a limit to the number of times, which shows the preciousness of this bounty point. But now that such a mission can be awarded bounty points has been released, it is tantamount to the system itself breaking the rules of the game and breaking the balance of the game, which is ...... It's not like a system would do it! ”
"You mean...... This heroine is not ordinary? Ma Le also sensed the anomaly and speculated.
Xie Wen nodded: "No matter how you think about it, these things that happened around Andan Lao are also a little strange, and if you go a little further, you can find clues even from the original movie." Looking at the customs of the indigenous people on the island, I am afraid that it is not the first time that a living person has been sacrificed to King Kong, and the previous sacrifices have been killed, only Andan Rao, not only survived, but even became good friends with King Kong, and finally even let this monster climb the Empire State Building at the risk of death for her, which is a bit intriguing in itself! ”
Now the snow owl's vigilance was raised again: "Captain, you don't plan to get her into the team, do you?" ”
Xie Wen smiled and shook his head: "That's not it, I just think that there may be secrets to dig up in this woman!" ”
As the three of them spoke, Andarau outside grew impatient and began to shake the Shikikami, who had become stiff and strange again, and called them back.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Dan Law, I was a ......little distracted just now," Xie Wen explained.
Andan Lao asked: "You are all together in a daze, you are really not ordinary people, how about helping me?" ”
The three of them looked at each other and nodded, "Okay, let's go immediately!" After saying that, they took over the task together.
Without further ado, the three of them immediately packed up their equipment and prepared to go, and the snow owl also went to the depths of the cave to inform the Tyrannosaurus Boss. Those lost crew members are not superhumans like adventurers, and although they are also experienced wilderness survival experts, their lives are in danger at every moment on this monster-infested island!
When watching Xie Wen and Ma Le come out of the waterfall, Andan Lao could hardly believe his eyes, he looked at several Shikijin around him, and then at the deity who had just walked in front of him, and his mouth grew in surprise. Even if the two of them briefly explained the principle to her, Ann still couldn't believe that the people who had been talking to her before were just a few dummies......
Just when Andan Lao was still studying the several Shikjin stand-ins, the water curtain of the waterfall suddenly sounded, and the snow owl ran out in a panic and said loudly: "Oh no, Tyrannosaurus he, it's gone!" ”
"What?!" Xie Wen and Ma Le were startled, and hurriedly jumped back into the cave with Andan Lao, walked to the depths, and soon saw a bright light, and when they got closer, the rock wall at the end of the cave was extremely thin, only a few centimeters thick, and a hole was opened in the center, which was thought to be made by a tyrannosaurus.
"Tyrannosaurus Boss left silently, what do you want to do?" Xie Wen immediately sent a message to President Guò, hoping to contact him, but the communication function had been turned off, just like Ma Le at the beginning, he couldn't be contacted at all.
"Time is the bounty, I can't wait for him!" Xie Wen thought about it for a moment and said: "Among us, only the Tyrannosaurus Boss has a map positioning system, he can find us at any time, but we can't find him, we will drive directly to the mission location, if the Tyrannosaurus Boss notices the change in our movements, he should catch up." Alas...... The strength of the tyrannosaurus is not bad, and he should be able to deal with danger, I just hope he doesn't have an impulsive mind and does something stupid......"
Leaving aside how Ma Le and his party marched towards the edge of the island, in the jungle in the middle of the island, a vigorous figure was galloping. This man is tall and has a long knife on his back, and he is the Tyrannosaurus that has no trace!
In this rugged and complex terrain, the Tyrannosaurus rex's feet were faster than that of a galloping horse, and it soon came to the central part of the island, not far from the center of Duhuàn. If you go any further, you will probably see a forest of insect nests and enter the most dangerous part of the island.
The tyrannosaurus found a high ground, bent down, and looked from a distance, only to see that the central clearing of the island had been completely covered by the mucus secreted by the insect monsters, and it was no longer possible to see the appearance of the original grass, and on this thick mucus material, there were hemispherical insect nests, each insect nest was like an orange that had been peeled, divided into several petals, forming a chrysanthemum-shaped opening at the top, and above the opening floated a true sight demon, circling around the nest to inspect. Around these nests, clusters of tiny tentacles grow, these tentacles are extremely thin and long, stretching out in all directions, slowly swaying with the wind, presumably some kind of sentient device.
In addition to these fixed things, there are also a large number of insect monsters busy in the hive area, and huge tank bugs stand guard around the hive, there are forty or fifty heads, forming the strongest shell. In the inner area of the hive, there is a large number of mouse-like voltatine beetles, each the size of a rabbit, relying on countless tiny legs to move quickly between the nests, as if carrying something. Above these "laborers" swim flying snakes that spew venom. In addition, there is a huge dragonfly-like giant insect with a wingspan of more than three meters, a huge head with a bunch of white sharp fangs, and a sharp barb at the tip of the tail, which looks like an extremely ferocious predator. This dragonfly monster, together with the flying snake, forms the air defense system of the central hive.
Other than that, the Tyrannosaurus didn't see anything else, but he didn't think it was the only thing here, after all, the real danger was often hidden in the shadows. Not to mention anything else, the boss here alone is definitely not simple, and being able to occupy the largest and best worm hive on the island after the queen's death is definitely not comparable to ordinary insect monsters. The humanoid insect king who controls bloodsucking insects encountered by the characters in the plot may not even be worthy of carrying shoes in front of the master here.
In the face of such a lineup, even Ma Le has withdrawn several times, and the current Tyrannosaurus has absolutely no capital to break through. But the captain of the wilderness didn't seem to think so, and he pulled out a small piece of mechanical equipment from his storage space, and fiddled with the stone at his feet a few times. Then, he took a deep breath and took out a photograph from his bosom of two figures, a man and a woman, one of whom resembled a tyrannosaurus rex, and the other somewhat resembled a mandala. The two people in the photo are smiling happily, and the girl is holding the man's neck from behind, looking happy and intimate. Come to think of it, this is what Tyrannosaurus and Mandala look like in the real world......
"Sister, wait for my brother, my brother will avenge you!" The Tyrannosaurus kissed the picture, put it back in its arms, took a deep breath, jumped off the cliff, and ran in the direction of the hive.
And on the display of the strange device he left behind, there was a string of numbers jumping
“2::59:36、2:59:35、2:59:34……”
