Infinite Throne

  Chapter 386 This light goes out anyway! (2 in 1)

at the same time.

  【Giant Beast】Poseidon.

  The Kingdom of Mermaids.

  Li Erpang, Ning You, and Xiao Chuer were blowing bubbles in the water.

   They were a little nervous.

   After brushing the "Mermaid Kingdom" branch line for more than a month, I finally brushed the "Mermaid Kingdom" reputation value to "Respect".

   "It's not easy!"

  Li Erpang looked not far away, twisting the scales of the fish, a mermaid with an excellent figure, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in his heart.

  Ning gave a long sigh.

   is really not easy.

   After they were rescued by the "mermaid", as "the hero's little friend", it is logical to stay in the mermaid country as "guests".

   Originally, Ning You and Xiao Chuer should be happy.

   This can be said to be a village with hidden willows and dark flowers, with ditches in the depths of the jungle.

   But what they never expected was that when they wanted to meet the "mermaid queen" that the mermaids called, they were told that they were not qualified.

  Why?

  Because the hero is not here!

  Without the brave man, isn't the hero's friend a human being?

   At that time, Erpang Li got angry and took out his hammer and shield.

   What I didn't expect was that when the group of mermaid girls who seemed to be light and soft and easy to push down, smiled and pulled out a harpoon that was bigger than Li Erpang, the top of their heads also showed [Lv:? ? ? 】symbols of.

   Obviously can't do it!

   In desperation, the Brave Legged Trio could only follow the normal game flow and frantically start various side missions in the Mermaid Kingdom.

   For more than a month, Ning You, who was the highest level, finally reached Lv47. Although the upgrade speed was delayed, the reputation of Mermaid Kingdom finally accumulated and reached the [Respect] level.

   "Uranos is above, you have finally become qualified warrior partners!"

  The mermaid NPC at the entrance of the palace finally showed a kind smile to the three of them.

  “…”

   Can you not always be a brave partner, a brave partner!

   Leg hair can't be a good player?

  This game, the difference is too obvious!

Why!

   Li Erpang was very puzzled.

  Why are the same players, even if the kid doesn't show up, the reputation value in the NPC is more effective than them?

   This game was opened by his family!

  Ning You and Xiao Chuer were not surprised by this.

  People are the protagonists.

   Maybe try the background setting, this is really an online game made by the "protagonist Irin".

  Although this inference, the unreasonable part is easy to handle. But every time I think that Irin is the "protagonist", these unreasonable things seem to be fully explained again.

   This magnificent palace, decorated with various shells and corals on the surface, has made Li Erpang jealous for a long time.

   After all, as long as the elite players can see, this is the key point of the mission of the Mermaid Kingdom.

  The Mermaid Kingdom is full of branch lines, but the mission here is the most important.

  The gate of the palace slowly opened.

  Li Erpang took the lead and followed Miss Mermaid and swam in.

   "My fellow warriors, please stand here."

  Miss Mermaid smiled slightly, indicating to Li Erpang and the three people in the circle in the center of the hall.

  In the hall, there is nothing but water.

  Wait.

   Sitting in the corner of the main hall, who is that person?

   "Blacksmith???"

  I saw the blacksmith Ge Lang, who had been missing for a whole month, sitting in a corner of the empty hall, pouring lonely wine into his mouth as usual.

   Speaking of which, the whole person is soaked in water, how does he drink wine!

  Ning You and the other three felt very speechless about this weird setting.

   "It's just a game, don't pick out the details..."

  Li Erpang's mouth twitched fiercely, and he could only comfort himself like this.

Sensing that the eyes of the three fell on Blacksmith Ge Lang, the leading mermaid sister explained to the three: "Blacksmith Ge Lang is Her Majesty's friend among human beings. I also heard that Blacksmith Ge Lang once had a relationship with Her Royal Highness the Queen. An unknown friendship."

   Speaking of the second half of the sentence, Miss Mermaid’s face was gossip, and she whispered a shocking secret.

  Ning Right: "…"

  Li Erpang: "…"

  Xiao Chuer: "…"

After speaking, Miss Mermaid seemed to realize that she was telling a secret that shouldn't be said. She stuck out her tongue and looked charming and innocent. Then, she tapped the seemingly ordinary harpoon in her hand to the edge of the circle at the feet of the three of them. .

   Immediately, layers of light suddenly appeared in the circle under the three people's feet. A transparent platform magically emerged from the circle, slowly lifting the three people's bodies up and up at a constant speed.

   Li Erpang was stunned: "Why am I taking the elevator in the water?"

  Ning You smiled: "Game settings, no need to go into details."

Xiao Chuer spread out her palm, glanced at it, and said, "Obviously this is the game setting. My skin has been soaked in water for a whole month, and there is no wrinkle at all. This is clearly a normal situation. It's just a game setting, unless, we're soaking in toner."

   The transparent aperture rose to the end and the speed slowed down.

   In front of the three of them, a small platform appeared.

In the center of the platform, a beautiful mermaid woman with long blue wavy hair, delicate facial features, and a luxurious demeanor, was using those blue eyes to calmly watch the three walking down the platform. people.

   "Uranus is above, welcome you, the companions of the hero from another world..."

  The Mermaid Queen watched the three with a graceful smile on her face.

   Li Erpang hasn't had time to shoot the long-planned flattery.

  Ning You didn't have time to say the well-designed opening remarks that might instantly increase the NPC's favorability.

The smile on the face of the    Mermaid Queen suddenly solidified, and then she sighed.

   "Unfortunately, the hero of the prophecy is not there."

   Can you keep your mouth shut, you are the hero, you bastard!

Can    be generalized between players and players?

   Don’t engage in such discrimination!

  Believe it or not, I will complain to you as soon as the game comes out!

   Li Erpang was angry again.

   He felt as if he was being treated differently.

   But soon Li Erpang was not angry.

  【Mermaid Queen · Seren】

  【Lv: ? ? ? 】

   In addition to the message popping up on the head of the Mermaid Queen to stop Li Erpang's anger, Queen Serian's oversized fish tail slowly swayed in the water. With a voice like the sound of nature, in a low and sad tone, he explained the worldview that Li Erpang and the other three players are about to face, which is as vast as an epic picture scroll.

   "Legend..."

  In the real world, there was a legend that the singing of a mermaid could make sailors lose their souls in the sea, fall into the sea unknowingly, and become the puppet of the mermaid forever.

Although the voice of [Mermaid Empress Serlian] is not so outrageous, it is not only Li Erpang, but also Lian Ningyou and Xiao Chuer, two determined apostles, when Serlian opened her voice, she felt a little restless. , as if it was smoothed and stroked by a tender white and soft hand, and it calmed down in an instant.

  On the upper floor of the main hall, there is only the sound of the sound of nature from the Mermaid Queen Seren. The three players did not dare to exhale, as if they were afraid of breaking this beautiful and sad atmosphere.

  …

  [The current main mission objective: Find the source of the crisis of extinction. Goal accomplished! 】

  【Get EXP+18000. 】

  【Get gold coins +12000G. 】

  【The main quest has been updated! 】

  [Current main quest: The Hero's Mission. 】

  【Current mission objective: Find more clues about "Evil God". 】

  【Quest Difficulty: A+】

  【Task time limit: none. 】

  【Task reward: EXP+25000. 】

  …

  The Mermaid Queen Seren barely paused and finished the story in one breath.

When    finished speaking, the three "companions of the brave" in front of them were still dumbfounded, as if they had not recovered.

   Mermaid Queen Seren: "?"

  Li Erpang: "This story is really big, ah no, it's really white, ah, ah, it's really thrilling!"

   Xiao Chuer gave Li Erpang a faint glance: "It's really hard for you to say a correct idiom."

  Ningyou casually opened the panel and glanced at it. He pondered for a moment, then chuckled softly and said, "It's the final boss."

  Xiao Chuer: "It should be the final boss, it's a real hammer."

  Li Erpang wiped the corners of his mouth, and after spitting out a long series of continuous bubbles, he finally put on a serious expression, hehe smiled and said, "I finally touched the main line!"

   After telling the background story of the world view, the Mermaid Queen Seren saw that the three "Brave Companions" faced such a terrifying darkness without any fear on their faces, nodded secretly, and then took out a round crystal from behind.

  Selian smiled slightly, and the smile was captivating. For a while, there seemed to be no words that could describe Seren's smile.

  Li Erpang murmured: "The painter of this character must add chicken legs..."

  Selian didn't understand Li Erpang's words, and even if she did, she might not be able to understand.

"Respected hero partner, the evil **** who intends to bring disaster to the world was sealed by the great Uranus two thousand years ago. But since Uranus has made a prophecy, it means that it is hidden in the sea of ​​clouds. The darkness in a certain corner has not completely disappeared."

"If it is said that the appearance of the 'Brave' is the will of the **** Uranus, then this means that the 'Dark Incarnation' coexisting with the 'Hero', that is, the evil god, must still be somewhere in the world, eager to move, waiting Time for resurrection."

Li Erpang pouted, although his head was not very bright, he soon discovered the loophole in the worldview, and said bluntly: "If that **** is really that awesome, he would have killed the boss two thousand years ago and it would be over. Now, why give the boss a chance to revive? This is the so-called cutting grass without eradicating the roots, and pregnant women are lining up to give birth."

  Ning Right: "…"

  Xiao Chuer: "…"

   The crystal in Serian's hand just lit up, but was interrupted by Li Erpang, and instantly dimmed.

  Ning You hurriedly smoothed things out: "The two fat brothers mean, why did 'Uranos' become a god, but didn't completely eliminate the 'Evil God' two thousand years ago?"

   Xiao Chuer whispered: "It's not just the game settings, what are you two serious about?"

   Seren pursed her **** round lips tightly.

  Ningyou's question seems to be on point.

   After a moment of silence.

Seren shook her head: "All the truth has long been annihilated in the 'history' two thousand years ago. However, according to legend, the 'Evil God' is the seventh giant beast, but it is a compatriot of the **** 'Uranos'. Kind Ulla North couldn't bear to take the life of the 'Evil God', so he chose to seal the 'Evil God' instead of letting the 'Evil God' completely disappear from the world."

"The world is divided into day and night, and human beings are divided into good and evil. When the **** Uranus created this world, he already understood that black and white, light and evil, existed forever, and no matter which side disappeared completely, it would lead to an imbalance in the world. Perhaps, this That's the real reason."

"The giant beast of Poseidon soars in the depths of the sea of ​​clouds. There is no corner in the sea of ​​clouds that can hide from Poseidon's eyes. This 'eye of Poseidon' in my hand may be able to help you to investigate the hidden The 'darkness' of the world guides you on the right path."

   hiss—

   The three of them saw the clues of the main quests in front of them, and they didn't dare to neglect them.

   On the "Eye of Poseidon", like a realistic projection, a magnificent picture flashed quickly.

   On the eye of Poseidon, the scenes passed quickly like a slideshow.

  The sky is full of snow, and the kingdom is covered in silver.

   A desolate land with cracks everywhere and ashes fluttering.

   A modern city full of high-rise buildings and neon lights.

   It is a bird-shaped giant beast that soars above the sea of ​​clouds and high in the sky.

  The once prosperous port city is now devastated.

  In the sea of ​​clouds, fourteen floating boats passed by like dark clouds, with bright and gorgeous lights floating above, and little angels were playing the piano and singing.

   "Fuck, it's that shit!"

   Li Erpang looked at the fourteen black airships, remembered his past grievances, and cursed.

   "Shh, read it first." Ning You motioned to Li Erpang to calm down.

   Pictures were presented in front of the three people one after another.

  In the end, when the screen turned, the figures of six giant beasts were miniatured in the crystal ball. There were six dark dots on them. On the bodies of the six giant beasts, they flickered and flickered, like the icons of the novice task guide.

After the Mermaid Queen had done all of this, her expression was slightly sluggish, and she quickly said to everyone: "These six black dots are the six monsters created by the 'Evil God'. These six monsters have been lurking in secret for many years. The 'Evil God' is making various efforts to break the seal."

   All the explanations of the Mermaid Queen Seren are easy to understand, simple and clear, with both pictures and texts, and Li Erpang and the three of them understood it instantly.

   In this way, the main quest of this world is very clear!

   In order to kill the final boss, you must first find a way to kill the six quasi-bosses!

  This is the main thread!

"finally…"

   Xiao Chuer was very emotional.

   Finally got the main quest!

   No need to brush errands anymore!

   "Six quasi-bosses... Huh?"

  Li Erpang squinted his eyes and was about to make a deep expression. Suddenly, he tried his best to widen his eyes and pointed to a certain part of the picture in the crystal, his fingers trembling slightly.

   "Uh, this, this, this...then this little bit, on and off, what's going on?"

"Went out?"

  The Mermaid Queen Seren heard the words, she was closing her eyes in sadness, she opened her eyes suddenly, and was stunned again.

   She hurriedly looked at the picture she saw in the "Eye of Poseidon".

Never thought.

   Six black dots, one really disappeared.

   Just not so long ago.

   Ah this?

   How to say this light goes out?

   This is not the lights at the scene of a large blind date car accident.

   "This... what does it mean to be destroyed?"

   Li Erpang carefully consulted.

  Empress Seren's expression was first slightly startled, then stunned, and finally excited. There were several expressions on his delicate face.

   At the end, Queen Seren's singing-like voice trembled involuntarily: "Destroyed means...there is a monster created by one of the 'evil gods'..."

"died!"

  …

  …

  The sea of ​​clouds.

  The fourteen black airships of the Holy See reunite.

  Li Changge sat on the gorgeous seat with a cold expression like frost and iron.

   "His Majesty the Pope! The other side's airship fell nearby, and there is no trace of any living people!"

   "Go back."

  Li Changge slowly closed his eyes.

   expression, no joy or sadness.

"Ah."

Suddenly.

   In Li Changge's arms, a sneer came from the transparent flask.

"why are you laughing?"

   "You don't need to care, I just think that human feelings are very interesting."

  Li Changge repelled everyone around him and took out the flask in his arms.

   His eyes were fixed on the transparent flask, and there was a faint dark air inside, which was erratic. The black air sometimes condenses into a "human face", and sometimes it has no shape.

   was silent for a long time.

  Li Changge suddenly laughed: "You said such a pretentious line, just to arouse my curiosity, and then achieve your goal?"

  Flask: "…"

   "In your eyes, I'm just a stupid outsider, a stupid player."

  Flask: "…"

   "I'm more curious than your lines, knowing that this is a game world and knowing that we are from outside the game world, what is 'what'?"

  Flask: "…"

Li Changge brought the handsome and threatening face closer, squinted his eyes, and laughed happily: "To be honest, I don't hate this intriguing way of chatting, after all, I've gotten used to it over the years. An actor is such a strange animal. He can interpret joys and sorrows, and interpret all kinds of living beings, but when he acts, he will gradually forget his original appearance.”

   "In 'that world', everyone is an actor."

  Flask: "…"

   It seems to be noncommittal about Li Changge's pride.

  Li Changge closed his eyes again.

   He held the transparent flask tightly with both hands.

  Because of too much force, Li Changge clenched the knuckles of the flask tightly, stiff and white, and bloodless. If you look closely, your fingers are trembling slightly.

  Li Changge was silent for a while.

When    broke the silence again, he used a dreamy tone, like chatting with the black gas in the flask, or talking to himself.

   "Once, in order to survive, I played hard as a clown."

"And then, I made it, you know, I made it, and everyone thought I was a clown. They didn't think I had anything to do but pretend to be handsome. Of course, I was real. Handsome, there is no doubt about that."

   "'They' didn't even bother to kill me."

   "So I lived a long time, a long time, a long time. Although it was only a few years, I lived longer than many people."

   "I succeeded."

   "Even myself, I think I'm a clown, a clown who only knows how to joke around, please others, and get away with living."

   "The weak can only survive in this way."

   "But does it matter? It doesn't matter. Nothing is more important than being alive. Oh, yes, you don't understand, after all, you're dead."

  Flask: "…"

  Li Changge opened his eyes.

   There was no turbulence in those eyes that twinkled like stars.

   "So, I decided that this time, I have to go to the end, the last, the last. It is said that the person who reaches the end can 'live' again."

   "Many people say that you need a reason to live."

   "Do you really need a reason to live?" Li Changge shook his head and smiled even more: "Do you need it? Don't need it. Need it? Don't need it. Need it?"

  In the flask, a faint sigh came out again: "Small human being."

Li Changge smiled: "Yes, this is a human being. But don't forget, your future is being held in the hands of the 'small' human beings you call, squeezing it into a round shape, do whatever you want, You scream, and there won't be any 'little humans' to save you, understand?"

  The flask fell silent for a moment.

   "However, I changed my mind."

"Oh?"

   "Tell me, how can I resurrect you."

In the    flask, the thin black gas suddenly became rich and violently tumbled in the sealed flask.

   seems to be using this "special effect" to express the violent fluctuations of the "heart" of the black gas from the side.

   can be sudden.

  Flask said in a hurried voice, "Quick, put me away."

  Li Changge was slightly startled.

   But he did not hesitate, and immediately put the flask back into the [Item].

   After a few minutes.

  Flask reappears in Li Chang Singer.

   "I know where they are."

"Um?"

   "On the sea of ​​clouds, nothing can escape the eyes of 'it'."

"Who."

   "Jie Jie... Poseidon."

  …

  …

   Not long ago.

   "There is something wrong with this account!"

  Irin is very sure.

   There are no pure coincidences in the world.

   If there is, it is really a coincidence.

  Irin believes that his "Grip of Annihilation", a powerful talent skill, has a very clear probability of triggering the "Oblivion" effect, "related to luck".

   can be "positive correlation" is related, "negative correlation" is also related.

  Irin speculates that the second possibility is more likely. In other words, the lower the luck attribute, the easier it is to trigger the "annihilation" effect.

   And the [Blessing of the Spearman] just happens to be able to designate a certain target and let the luck value drop down.

  This "initial prop" is used on other people, maybe it's just painless.

Can    be used on yourself?

Although   Irin is not 100% sure, but through observation and reasoning, he feels that there is more than 90% probability that this will be the case.

   "My talent skills and initial props are not randomly generated. They appear in 'props' for a special reason."

"Let's not talk about why talent skills are so useful, those five initial items, including the 'Question Mark Divine Sword', there must be some reason for their existence. Even if some items seem useless at present, they may be in In a specific scene and a specific time, it will play an unexpected role.”

  Irin's eyes quickly swept over the five "initial items".

   "These five initial items are not so much 'random' as they are more like a specific 'choice'?"

   "But who chose this?"

  Irin lowered her head.

  Suddenly, an absurd thought flashed through his mind.

   "Could it be... 'I'?"

  …

  …

  In the dark cave, I don’t know where to go.

   The air is filled with the smell of moist soil. From the depths of the cave, there was also a faint smell of fishy smell coming from nowhere.

  Wang Tiandi is very sure.

   does smell like shit.

  He is a dog, an upright, impervious male dog, and no one knows smell better than him.

  The walls of the cave are covered with prismatic barbs.

   Grey prismatic barbs that look dull outdoors. Ironically, in the dark cave, it was these dull-looking prisms that provided the only light.

   But this vision is optional for dogs.

   Anyone who knows something about dogs knows that when dogs touch the world and "cognition" of things around them, they rely more on smell and hearing, not just vision.

   In the darkness, there was no sound at all.

  Wang Tiandi knew that those monsters were not simple.

   The continuous "summoning partners" and dog fights are simply not about martial arts. Wang Tiandi expressed his disdain.

   But fortunately, it is not a dog alone.

   Although the human adventurer was a little shameless, Wang Tiandi was not alone.

  “Wang~”

  Wang Tiandi turned his head and was about to wag his tail and pat the brave man's ass, when he was a qualified dog licking.

   Suddenly, Wang Tiandi's eyes widened.

   The green dog's eyes were full of surprise.

   "Wang Wang Wang! Wang Wang??"

   (Dog day! Where are people??)
