Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

Chapter 56 I'm sorry, but Lao Deng is not dead yet

Faced with Cheng Bingqiang's request, Black Glasses found it very interesting.

He smiled and patted the boy on the shoulder. "Happy times are always short-lived. Now that we have arrived, it is time for you to get on your way. Don't worry, this life will pass quickly."

As he spoke, the man with black glasses wiped his tears and said, "Thank you for the fun you brought me these days. Even in the days when you are not around, I will miss you."

Isn’t it just that you’ve been playing with the kids every day these days?

You talk like a bunch of nonsense. If someone doesn't know you, they would think that you two have developed a deep relationship in just a few days and are now going through a life-and-death separation.

Oh, it's still one-sided.

If it weren't for the fact that the man with black glasses still had his hand on the boy's shoulder, preventing him from leaving, judging from the expression on the boy's face, he would have wanted to take this opportunity to get away from the man with black glasses and run as far away from him as possible.

However, this canyon is indeed very magical.

Chi Yu looked at the details displayed on the Moyu map and discovered for the first time that this system actually contained hidden content.

Originally, in the block in front that belonged to the canyon, since it was an unconnected dead end, even if Chi Yu and others approached here, the Moyu system would not judge it as a neighboring block and automatically unlock it.

But as they brought the young man to the outskirts of the canyon, it seemed to be just as Chi Yu had learned before.

The canyon felt the blood of the Peacock Kingdom, so it woke up and prepared to open the long-closed door for the peacock boy.

At this time, on the system's strange domain map, a white thread has connected two originally unrelated blocks together. The only difference is that there is a small gray lock hanging between the two.

[Path to be unlocked: A path that requires specific conditions to be triggered. Now, the "key" is ready to open the door. ]

Chi Yu withdrew his gaze from the system, tilted his head to look at the actor who was still teasing the boy with black glasses, and said, "Tsk", "Don't waste time, let him go."

"Follow me~"

The man with black glasses gave Chi Yu a rather frivolous two-finger salute, loosened his grip on the boy, and when the boy turned around to look at him, he waved at him: "Come on, kid."

The young man took a deep breath, looked at him, then looked at Chi Yu, and finally turned and walked towards the mountain wall on Cheng Bingqiang's side.

Cheng Bingqiang had been waiting for him there for a long time. Seeing that the boy had finally left the protection of Black Glasses and Chi Yu, he gave him a malicious smile: "Little bastard, it's time to play your final role."

The boy ignored him, walked past, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the rock that was already covered with moss.

He lowered his head, closed his eyes, and began to sing in a low voice a song that no one could understand.

As his singing voice drifted among the mountains and forests, the vast mountains and rivers rose and fell like layers of waves, and ripples appeared under the touch of the young man's fingertips.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew.

Cheng Bingqiang and his group were blown to and fro by the sudden gust of wind, barely maintaining their shaky bodies.

Even Chi Yu and Black Glasses were slightly affected by the environment.

"Wow, what a grand scene." Black Glasses whistled, and approached Chi Yu with the momentum of the strong wind, and said to him with a smile, "Just a random descendant can cause such a big commotion. Boss Chi, how magical do you think the original magic of this Peacock Nation is?"

"do not know."

Anyway, no matter how powerful it is, they can't see it now.

Looking at the calm figure that only a young man could maintain, Chi Yu tucked his messy hair behind his ears and stood there like a rock, motionless. Only his black windbreaker kept fluttering in the strong wind.

As time went by, not only the mountains and forests, but even the earth began to tremble.

When the young man finally finished chanting and raised his head again, he looked at the steep mountain wall with a complicated look in his eyes. He put down his arms and took a few steps back.

The strong wind also subsided, and then a huge roar was heard.

Just like Moses parting the sea, the towering cliffs were split straight apart by a mysterious force, turning into two stone walls, and a wide road suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

Cheng Bingqiang's eyes were shining with heat. He looked at the new road opened up by the boy. The expression on his face gradually distorted. He approached the boy with a grin, wanting to grab him.

As a result, he reached out but caught nothing, and the boy dodged him and ran into the canyon.

Cheng Bingqiang was suddenly a little angry. He looked around and was a little afraid of Chi Yu and the man with black glasses. He didn't say anything more. He waved his hand at the others and said, "Come on, follow me to catch that brat."

"No, Brother Qiang, this canyon has already been opened by that kid. Do we still need to care about his life or death? We can just leave him here and go find the treasure directly."

"You know nothing!" Cheng Bingqiang slapped the person who made the suggestion. "There are still some places where we need that guy. We must find him for me!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and nodded, "Okay, then we will all listen to Brother Qiang."

So the group entered the canyon.

[Core goals have been achieved]

It seems that this is indeed where the Peacock Kingdom is located.

Chi Yu watched Cheng Bingqiang and his group leave, glanced at the commissioned tasks that could be submitted at any time, thought for a while, and decided not to settle them for the time being.

He now also has a side quest involving a teenager.

It is known that Peacock Country is the young man's home environment. Based on his previous behavior of awakening the canyon to open a path for him, it is easy to imagine that his ability may be to manipulate the terrain here.

If this is true, then as long as they enter the area belonging to the Peacock Kingdom, their lives may no longer belong to themselves and will be controlled by the young man.

Chi Yu was very resistant to the idea of ​​putting his life in the control of others, but there was a solution.

After all, even though the relationship between him and Peacock Boy is no longer as tense as when they first met, Chi Yu still remains wary of him.

Therefore, for now, Chi Yu still needs to retain the "Survival Expert" ability to reduce environmental damage just in case.

"Boss Chi, aren't we going in?" Black Glasses interrupted Chi Yu's contemplation. Seeing that he had come back to his senses, he asked with a smile, "I remember that you still have a deal with that brat that hasn't been concluded. So, aren't you going to ask him for the balance?"

“I don’t do things half-heartedly.”

Chi Yu glanced at him, opened the Moyu map, checked the current situation of the young man and his client, and then walked in.
