As a player, can you be normal?

Sauron searched for a long time in the panel before he found a red dot that was beating at any time like a ghost.

Let me explain here. Sauron's ability can open some regional maps when he sees the corner of the script, and he has the ability to directly observe hidden things. That is, the red glowing origin is a special creature, and the red thin circular area is a special creature. In a maze or area, the blue marked points are side tasks, and the question marks are extremely hidden and extremely dangerous task locations.

The exclamation point is the hidden BOSS, which can also be called a creature that cannot be challenged.

This range is broadly defined.

From Emile to Mirror Master, all can be defined as being unable to challenge type.

The beating red dot he found was the island whale.

The challenge strength of this creature is lv200.

Sauron had never seen such an exaggerated level. He vaguely felt that fighting against a creature of this strength was comparable to fighting against the entire world.

He marked the location to Li Nuo.

Then I zoomed in on the panel and saw that there were other things hidden on the island whale.

Namely, the treasure chest.

The appearance of any treasure chest represents a large number of treasures in that area.

Li Nuo strode toward the cabin while listening to Sauron's discovery.

The smell of meat floating on the airship told him that the group of pirates should be eating.

He kicked open the cafeteria door.

The guys who were eating meat stopped what they were doing.

Two of them protected the food in their hands.

You guy...did you come here because of the smell?

Let me tell you first, newcomers can only chew the bones and dregs!

Dolos was sitting on the seat holding a big stick bone and chewing it. She was the only one who was not surprised to see Li Nuo's appearance.

The old guy rolled his eyes, slowly bit off a piece of meat, and puffed out his cheeks to chew.

Li Nuo came over, pushed someone away, picked up a half-cooked steak, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed and said:

Shall I go around or go around the key room key?

Shouldn't we let you rest before we talk? Dolos threw a glass of water.

Li Nuo caught it, drank it in big gulps, and smashed the water glass on the table.

You only get one chance, and the key is on Prison Island.

Almost everyone's eyes were stunned. The sons looked at their mother. Dolos bit off another piece of meat, swallowed it, and asked: Which prison island?

Prison Island on the coastline, next to the Atlantic Ocean.

So, that little girl is on Prison Island?

Um.

The way Dolos looked at him changed.

You didn't sell your girl, did you?

ah?

That is the most dangerous place in the Principality of Wales.

Li Nuo picked up another piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

I thought that at least you wouldn't let her stay alone in an overly dangerous place... Dolos raised the corners of his mouth with indifference: It turns out that she is a little kid who ran away with his tail between his legs.

Yeah. Li Nuo responded without refuting.

Dolos knocked on the table hard, and the wine on the table splashed all over the floor.

Did she tell you to take care of yourself first?

Um.

What a good girl... Dolos knocked on the table again: You idiots, you will look for women like this in the future!

Robert, as the clearest among his sons, helped everyone complain: We don't want to find it...

Li Nuo swallowed the meat, picked up half a bottle of inferior wine and poured it into his mouth.

I want to go find her now, so please borrow your airship.

The prison island is heavily guarded. The best warriors of the Principality of Wales are there. I can't take my sons to die...

Then you don't want the key to Icarus? Li Nuo asked.

The sons looked at Dolos.

We are sky pirates, and robbing things is our specialty. We must get the key, but we need a good way. Dolos supported the table with his thick arms, jumped onto the table with a snap, squatted in front of Li Nuo, and frowned. Baba's face was close to Li Nuo's.

Boy, do you have any idea?

Li Nuo took the meat from Doros's hand and put it into his mouth.

Follow me to find the 'Island Whale'.

…

Seventeen hours later.

Prison Island.

A large floating prison located on the border of the Principality of Wales.

It is said that the prisoners detained here are all death row prisoners who have committed treason or major economic crimes in the country.

This island floats in the air, driven by a huge blue floating stone, 600 meters above the ground, hidden in the clouds. Directly north of it is the horizon of the Atlantic Ocean, and prisoners cannot escape.

In addition, it is also a fortress on the north side of the principality. Thousands of elite soldiers are stationed here, using magic-driven forts to cover an area of ​​more than two kilometers around the clock 24 hours a day.

The fortress is surrounded by snipers and mechanical firepower, and high-temperature artillery with extremely high vapor concentrations is hidden in the mud beneath the island.

A perfect iron wall, a castle that cannot be shaken.

The person who runs this island perfectly like a program is named Llorente.

A secret agent of the Principality of Wales, a knight guarding the national border, and an air force captain.

In the dark and cramped corridor.

An iron door opened.

Llorente entered from the outside, followed by Brupp.

I have to say that you have done a great job this time, Brupp.

Llorente walked in front. He had a handsome face and long blond hair tied around his head. He looked like a boy or girl and he didn't look very dangerous. He was even very easy-going. Anyone who knew him well knew that, This is a devil.

Brupp followed without saying a word.

If there was a slightly more ordinary officer in front of him, Brupp would definitely ask what kind of reward he could get.

He didn't dare to face Llorente.

The strongest warrior in the Principality of Wales and the best great magician, this is a genius who has won numerous first-place titles at the age of only 34.

Once there is a problem with Llorente's emotions, his subordinates will evaporate in an instant. Even Brupp does not dare to mess with this guy casually, so...choosing silence or echoing is the best way to communicate with Llorente Way.

Behind the door, there is a mechanical machine tool, with a large number of messy pipelines inserted behind it, and a robot lying tilted in the pipeline.

This robot is the little guy who came to this place with Chabai. As a male player in Brupp's team said, this guy is inextricably linked to Icarus.

This is the small robot you caught. I originally sent people to the battlefield in another part of the earth to search for such little guys. They have magic ripples on their bodies that can unlock the contents of the stone slab.

Llorente pushed up his sunglasses and looked up.

It was a prophecy slate. A certain great mage recorded the secret stories about Icarus on the slate. It is said that if you interpret them all, you can find Icarus.

A stone slab floats in mid-air, and the words carved on the stone slab float with blue light.

——Longitude 64 degrees 52 minutes 54 seconds north, longitude 169 degrees 42 minutes 33 seconds west.

What is this? Brupp couldn't help but ask.

The direction of Icarus. Llorente's voice was steady and calm: Strictly speaking, it should be the range of Icarus, which is in the center of the sea on the north side.

Brupp: ...

[Update of the main mission: Find the secret key and go to Icarus. Remember not to cooperate with the people in the Endless Corridor, that will deviate from the original intention of the story]

What's the matter, Brupp?

Llorente turned his head and faced the worried Brupp. There was an unspeakable sense of oppression in his eyes covered by sunglasses.

What's going on with this slate? Brupp asked.

Llorente raised the corners of his mouth and said softly:

There is a legend circulating in ancient times.

Thousands of years ago, the goddess gave the wind to the world. Human beings have mastered the magic of the wind. The power of the wind has brought about a revolution in science and technology. War has brought about a leap in history. Gears, steam, and mining capabilities are all in the hands of humans. .”

The excavation machines spread underground, and the floating stones flew into the sky with the islands. That technology is known as: Icarus.

The great Icarus forged the crystallization of wisdom and led us to the sky, and all of this comes from the story of the first arrival of mankind tens of thousands of years ago.

History rises and falls, and the cycle continues.

The great Icarus finally fell, and we can only return to the ground and start a new round of evolution.

When the historical node reaches a certain period of time, there will always be a key, there will always be some people who get the key, and there will always be a group of people who discover the secret of Icarus.

What happened next, no one knows, but we do know... this key will lead us to the treasure of Icarus, the great city that has been sleeping, beckoning.

Brupp was silent, and what Llorente said was completely consistent with the systematically elaborated world description that the player saw when entering the script.

Icarus, it hides the ancient super-technical civilization, everyone says so, but that is not what is more important.

Llorente picked up the mixing spoon stuck in the cup and twirled it between his fingertips.

Whoever finds Icarus will become a god. This is the truth of that place.

Where are you from...

It's just a legend. Llorente looked at the little robot in the pipe and said, Can you believe it? This robot may be a creature created by our ancestors. It contains powerful magic power, but he doesn't know how to use it. Then The magic is poisonous and we can't break it down. I can't imagine what else Icarus is hiding, but Brupp, don't you want to see it?

Brupp was silent for two seconds.

why me?

Because you are not human in this world.

Brupp's eyes widened and a chill ran down his spine.

Llorente looked over and said with a smile: Don't be surprised, it's easy to tell. Humans are different, but the magic is the same. Your magic is messy and complicated, not as pure as ours.

I still don't understand... Brupp, as one of the acting presidents of the guild, looked as weak as a child in front of this aborigine.

No one will care even if you disappear, right? Llorente's tone was gentle, hiding endless coldness: I don't believe in people in this world, because even if they die, there will be people who care about them. I like lifeless, careless monsters like you.

Who is the monster... Brupp felt that a demon-like thing emerged from behind Llorente.

Come with me to find Icarus, and I will give you everything you want.

The implication is that when I become a god, I will bless you.

Brupp had no choice, and he began to understand more and more why Dee was so opposed to joining the military.

It's not because of the power of the military, just because Llorente is there. Strictly speaking, the military in this script is not that excessive, because all the malice is grafted onto Llorente.

Brupp: Then I'll go find the key.

Llorente nodded with satisfaction: Of course, you must go and find the key that you should have found.

Llorente, I thought you were looking for Icarus for war.

War? Hahaha, hahahahaha... Llorente laughed: How boring, treating people as a subtraction game of numbers. What's the point? This world has so many things, but it lacks God. That’s what’s interesting.”

Do you know what God is? Brupp asked. He had seen the supreme will of destruction and rebirth, an existence that could not be resisted.

This is an interesting question. Llorente thought for a while and said, God...who knows what it is. Maybe that god is me, you, or even a pig.

The head of the small robot in the pipe tilted slightly towards the window by a few millimeters.

Llorente followed the robot's gaze and popped out the mixing spoon in his hand.

The spoon was like a cannonball, causing the thick wall tiles to crumble instantly.

Llorente's eyes pierced the smoke.

However, nothing appeared.

Is there anyone watching outside? Brupp asked calmly.

Maybe I'm too worried. Llorente turned around: Anyway, I'll give you three days to find the secret key to Icarus. Didn't you say that those prisoners know the answer? Don't let me down. expectations, Brupp.

Brupp said nothing, turned and walked out of the room.

Behind the wall that was destroyed just now, a mechanical pig's trotter fell on the awning below.

The pig's trotters quickly cut across the grass, and above the scattered fortresses on the highlands, a large military airship was parked in the sky.

In the airship, a soldier observed the ground with a telescope and said in surprise: Hey, I seem to see something like a pig's trotter flying.

Another soldier happened to bump into him, and the binoculars fell to the ground.

Jack! Watch carefully!

Huh, sorry.

Marger, wearing a disguise mask, crushed the telescope with his foot.

Hmph, I'm so sorry.

Although he suffered a big fight, his eyes stayed on the place where the mechanical pig's trotters disappeared.

At this time, Mr. Victor's voice came from the headset.

Brother Ma, don't be ridiculous.

Victor was hiding on a floating rock a few hundred meters away, with a folded airplane behind him.

The driver is Capone, and the second-in-command is his apprentice Sophia.

Capone smoked a cigarette and asked, Is that kid causing trouble?

Sophia said angrily: I just said that those who play shit are unreliable.

Mr. Victor was speechless.

In a sense, Victor was glad that Feng Chu was not here, otherwise something bad might have happened.

Marger just felt that the thing flying across the grass just now looked a bit like a brown-white mechanical hand.

The mechanical pig's trotter had entered the sewer pipe, passed through the torrent of steam, and returned to Cha Bai's body.

ah……

right……

Chabai is still a pig.

Not nearly as bad as Capone and The Curse of Don Quixote, if not worse.

Moreover, this damn curse has no time limit, and I don’t know how to undo it. The good news is that you can summon the magic element grid and take out things from your backpack, but your legs and feet are a bit inconvenient...

But even though she became a pig... she was not idle either.

First of all... because I have learned some of the witch's magic, now I don't need to recite a spell to activate the warlock's magic.

Although his abilities are limited due to his pig form, he can still use simple spells to hide his aura.

So she relied on the magic to hide her aura and her small body to shuttle through the fortress.

Then I found a lot of stuff.

The most important prop in the area, the epic blueprint: [Permanent Durability Improvement Technology] was found in the library.

Marger would be grateful to know that.

Then there is a book that Li Nuo may need [Feng Dagong's Encyclopedia of Alchemy].

Li Nuo will also be grateful when he finds out.

Finally, there is the [List of Military Weapons of the Principality of Wales]. Marger and Li Nuo will shed tears of gratitude together when they know about it.

In short, the best things Sauron found here through the strategy have been put into the grid by Cha Bai.

This woman is so damn capable.

In addition, the floating arm (pig's trotters) has the function of visual and voice communication because it is integrated with the Yorha Force's POD system.

Just now Cha Bai passed his arm and heard the conversation between Llorente and Brupp, so everyone's main mission was updated.

[The main mission has been updated: I have obtained the direction of Icarus and go there with the secret key]

And then, the most important.

A woman from the Arctic Circle Guild adopted her...

Now there is a basin in front of Chabai.

There was food for the prisoners inside.

The woman's name is Aiko.

She is a good girl and a capable person. She once injured Li Nuo with a sniper rifle in the Cyberpunk script.

So far, there are only two people who have survived the sneak attack on Li Nuo, one is Marjie and the other is Aike.

So this proves that this woman is a particularly stubborn type of player.

But even so, she couldn't escape from the prison island.

Eat quickly, little one...

Ai Ke put all the meaty food in the tea-white basin, even though the so-called meat was bugs.

Cha Bai looked at the bugs still moving their legs in the basin... She thought of Li Nuo's words, you can't waste other people's kindness, otherwise the kindness will turn into malicious revenge on you... Then she thought of Marjie, as long as it's not eating Just shit.

So, he reluctantly raised his hoof, mashed the ingredients... and ate them reluctantly.

Aike, are you still in the mood to feed the pigs?

The speaker was Nick in the next cell.

Ai Ke lowered his eyelids, touched his trembling tea-white head, and whispered softly: I'm almost dead... accumulate some virtue.

Prometheus in the cell opposite said through the iron bars: Don't be so pessimistic, there is still a chance.

What the hell are you eating, Prometheus. Nick said unhappily: This girl Aike has no gold coins. She will die if she goes back, and she will die if she stays. What do you think we should do?

As long as we integrate those three guys... Prometheus' incorporation said with a particularly guilty conscience.

What he wanted to say was that as long as Li Nuo and the others were recruited, even if they completed the Grand Guild's commission, they could ask for a reward from the Grand Guild and successfully overcome the disaster.

But the problem is...

Everyone knew that there was no way those three guys could be recruited by them.

Don't even mention co-optation.

Everyone in the Arctic Circle Guild who could withdraw from the script ran away. Their alliance, the bald brother Bian Zu, had been killed by Brupp.

And they had no idea where Li Nuo's three people were.

Assuming that the location of the appearance was not the sky train, and assuming that Li Nuo did not fight with Brupp and the others at that time, maybe everything would have gone differently, but the problem is that there are not so many assumptions in this world.

The only problem they have to face now is how to escape.

Cha Bai finally finished the food.

Ai Ke touched Cha Bai's head: At least we still have value, otherwise we would have died long ago. If we wait a little longer, if no miracle happens, we will withdraw from the script.

Prometheus: Is there any way to escape?

Ai Ke shook his head: I am best at escaping, but there is no possibility of escaping here at all. Magic power covers the entire area. As long as you break out of the magic network, an alarm will sound in the sky. Even if you are lucky enough to escape, there will still be a group of flying cannibals outside the island. Monster, we don’t stand a chance.”

Nick gritted his teeth: If I still had my elf ball...

His Poke Ball was also found by Cha Bai, buried under a mud pipe.

Prometheus narrowed his eyes: In other words... it is possible to get out only by completely destroying the island from the outside?

Nick smiled slightly: Nonsense, who can do it?

At this time...Cha Bai heard the sound of the system.

[Special friend backpack sharing application]

Li Nuo is contacting her.

Immediately open the backpack grid and subconsciously use the pig's nose to click on a new note that appears in the grid.

It read: When it is safe, use [Summoning Magic Crystal] to summon the Island Whale to the Prison Island.
