King from scratch

When the third expedition to the South China Sea set off, it was mighty and mighty.

Dwarves, mages, druids, and npcs make up the main force of this team, including Thor Jin who is determined to eliminate the threat near Dragon Island as soon as possible, the etheric structure from the Safa Federation, and An Nuda, there is also an additional human-human communication machine Kenti used to communicate with Nubada, so that when the final team set off, the number of people was overwhelmed.

The expedition team brought about [-] great mages, including two great magicians, and the entire Arcane Academy has only dozens of great magicians. There is no doubt that great magicians belong to the high-end combat power of this world.

Not to mention druids, the first time extremist druids left Everfree to cast a glimpse into the world—and then had the misfortune of encountering creatures far more dangerous than Dudoran.

Miserable is just one word, it is worth repeating several times.

The kingdom's negotiations with the extremist druids have not ended. In fact, the treants are still hanging around in the kingdom's forest. Of course, compared to the long lifespan of the treants, their time in the kingdom is indeed not long.

The threat from afar sounded the alarm, and the extremist druids who were in contact with the kingdom received the news and appeared in the expedition team.

After the dwarves have all the equipment, they are really two kinds of fighting power with the dwarves who lack the equipment.

After all, the former alone can create an astonishing mechanical army.

Because there are quite a few other races participating in the expedition, the number of NPCs in the expedition inevitably decreased accordingly.

But Yan, as the representative of the kingdom, still became the leader of the expedition team, holding a heavy box of Du Doran in his hand, making everyone keep silent in front of him very rationally.

After the expedition team went out to sea, they headed straight for Dragon Island under the urging of Tuol Jin.

After receiving the relevant news, Tuo Er Jin went to Dragon Island immediately, confirmed the safety of the members of the Dragon Clan, and opened the defense equipment of Dragon Island to avoid accidents before returning to the expedition team.

Dragons are rarely so cautious, mainly because the news from Nubida is too alarming.

Not many people know about the mutation on the top of the mountains, but Tul King is one of those who know.

One of the obvious reasons why the Dragon Clan was hired was to protect the safety of the mine veins.

Tuol Jin had close contact with the mutated creatures in the depths of the mountains, and of course they did not cause any harm to him, and the kingdom's siege of the mutated creatures on the mountains was also very smooth - among which players accounted for Most of the credit.

In order to earn mission rewards and ether points, countless players are actively working at high-level monster spawning points. Leng is relying on endless energy and the advantage of immortality to suppress the mutant creatures deep in the mountains.

The number of mutated creatures on the top of the mountains is gradually decreasing as players spawn monsters, which is the main reason why those in the know don't take mutated creatures seriously.

But the situation in the South China Sea is different from the top of the mountains. The danger and desire to attack the mutated creatures in the South China Sea are much higher than the top of the mountains. More importantly, mermaids are intelligent creatures.

The mutated creatures on the top of the mountains are animals and plants, but the mutated creatures in the South China Sea...

At present, no one can be sure whether the mermaid is really mutated—after all, there are no living creatures in that sea area, but considering Yan and the others' description of her condition before her death, it is difficult to say with certainty that the mermaid has not mutated.

Mutations in intelligent creatures are not the same thing as unexplained mutations in animals and plants.

This is why the expedition set out so quickly.

Almost all races who knew the information from Nubida quickly made a decision—these mutated creatures must be prevented from achieving their goals before the situation deteriorates further.

It is difficult for people to have a good association with the loss of the Coral Kingdom.

In just a few days, the seemingly peaceful world once again exposed the turbulent waves in the dark, so that He Xingwen witnessed the action of a world surrounded by crises all the year round before danger.

The Safa Federation quickly put forward a request to the kingdom to study the mutated creatures on the top of the mountains, and after the king agreed, a huge and fully equipped machine parachuted into the top of the mountains. Those places, stationed on the spot, started the exploration and discovery of scientists.

At this point, the expedition hadn't even set off.

On the second day after the Salfa Federation settled on the top of the mountains, Du Lei came to the door and told He Xingwen that Ai Zhijin had completely blocked all trade with the South China Sea, and cut off the contact between the mainland and the South China Sea as much as possible in a short period of time.

He also informed He Xingwen that Ai Zhijin had reached an agreement with the countries in the South China Sea to ensure that the expedition team could reach the destination safely in the shortest possible time.

After the kingdom's expedition team departs, Aizhijin will organize several expedition teams to the South China Sea to further confirm the situation of the South China Sea mutation.

Aizhijin has reached a scientific research cooperation with the Salfa Federation to ensure that the Salfa Federation will share the scientific research results with Aizhijin. This scientific research operation provides logistical support and scientific research costs.

Du Lei promised to share the scientific research results with the kingdom in exchange for the kingdom's sharing of information on mutant creatures.

He Xingwen listened to a lot, and concluded: Ai Zhijin is like a thread, connecting other forces on the mainland in series, and in an objective sense, it has played a role in the advancement and retreat of the entire continent.

Sure enough, no matter which world you are in, a monopoly organization is enough to make people feel awe.

On the second day after Du Lei visited He Xingwen, news came from the Diman Empire that they also applied for researchers to enter the top of the mountains—judging from the efficiency of the Diman Empire, the speed of this decision can be said to be beyond imagination .

The day after the news from the Diman Empire, the expedition set off on a huge ship provided by Azhijin.

"So this large task has nothing to do with the player? "

[Original: I’m so angry that I can’t type easily. The host is a new player who has just obtained the qualification for the public beta. It’s fine if you didn’t catch up with the first few tasks. If you’re unlucky, what can you do if you don’t have an account?But this time, I changed jobs and changed jobs, but I just watched the expedition set off? 】

[New player?Used to it. 】

[Just changed jobs?Hurry up to upgrade, otherwise it will be useless even if there are missions, the level is too low to be effective, do you think you can get mission rewards for nothing? 】

[What do you mean it has nothing to do with the player?Just to remind you, this large-scale mission has been started before, the masters have already boarded the boat, and ordinary players are also floating in the sea. 】

[Speaking of this... I really wish to change with the host, this task is too disgusting, it is used to temper the player's will. 】

[+1, how did the planner come up with these disgusting monsters?When I see these tentacles, I will suffer from intensive phobia. 】

[Didn't you say that you have already started spawning monsters? 】

【What?Do you call killing monsters? 】

[I very much doubt that the idea of ​​the demon was copied from the previous copy of the Arcane Academy, and I want to use the player to consume the big monster, but the problem is, I think the player's attack will not lose blood at all for the boss...]

[You think too much, I think Nubida just wants us to divert the attention of the boss and stop attacking the etheric space. 】

[Nubida is not so stupid, is he?The boss's tentacles spread all over the sea, and they sent two of us to die, without delaying the rest of the tentacles to take turns sweeping through the etheric space. 】

[Ever since I found out that Nubida got lost in the South China Sea, I felt that Nubida might not be that smart. 】

[If you get lost, you still want to lose face and don't ask for help, Nubida's character design is about to collapse. 】

【...Didn't Nubida say that he pretended to lie to us? 】

[You really believe it, ever since I posted him a face-saving persona, I think this kind of dignity-saving words are all nonsense he wants to save face. 】

[Huaxia Star: ... I may not know the same Nubida as you. 】

[Fuck!God, are you finally free to browse the forum again? 】

[Fuck, take a photo with the god in the front row! 】

[Great God, how is your mission going?Didn't you set off with the third expedition ship?If you want to say that the Great God is worthy of being a Great God, you can hold on!It's not at all like Xiong Da and the others, they committed suicide halfway, but they were resurrected on our boat. 】

[China Star: We are still on our way, but this time there are so many bosses, it should be no problem... When we get to Dragon Island, the members of the expedition team will add a bunch of dragons, I think it's safe. 】

[Don't set a flag! ! ! 】

[It's over, it sounds like the ship is going to capsize...]

[Isn't it?There are a bunch of NPCs from various races on this boat. If the boat capsizes, it will really make a big fuss. 】

[By the way, did the Holy Guard really solve those guys before?So why not this time?Why bother to create a third South China Sea expedition? 】

[I think it's because the Holy Guard is too buggy, so the planner blocked it. After all, the dungeon that I finally came up with, click and it's over, is it appropriate? 】

[The king also has to give a suitable reason to explain why he didn't just use the holy guard to instantly kill mutant creatures, right? 】

[@华夏之星, come out and answer. 】

[China Star: What is the identity of the king, what is my identity, can people explain it to me? 】

【Wow?The planning is so lazy, there is no plot to explain? 】

[China Star: But if you think about it carefully, you can guess that the Holy Guard was a complete massacre. When we went to see it later, the entire sea area would be emptied. If we zoomed in, the entire South China Sea would be vacated. 】

[This power is comparable to a nuclear bomb. 】

[This is the real nuclear deterrence. 】

[Fart, other npc forces don't know about the Holy Guard at all, and they are still nuclear deterrent. 】

[After much deliberation, the planning and writing of the plot is still a mess, full of mistakes and omissions. In order to let the players have a sense of participation, the npc king is just unreasonable.

How can a normal conqueror play this game with you, directly crushing the Holy Guard repeatedly, letting everyone know what nuclear deterrence is, and then crushing all the way, which is the same as this npc, this is not necessary, that is not necessary , Fighting like a joke? 】

[Is there still need to discuss the matter of planning an idiot? 】

[That's right, the planning has always been so stupid, it's normal for the npc design to have problems. 】

[China Star: ... What did I want to say just now?Oh, by the way, Nubida, this guy is not trustworthy at all, don't let him fool you. 】

[Hehe, you didn't see that he didn't tell other people about getting lost because he wanted to save face. 】

[Huaxia Star: You'd better pay attention, of course it's fine if you think it's okay... So how's your mission going? 】

[I don't know what Nubida is thinking, let the player divert the attention of the boss... This guy has so many tentacles, can he be diverted? 】

[We are trying to kill the boss one after another. 】

Wu Xing glanced at the players' replies, paused for a moment on the words "death to save face", and sincerely prayed for these players for a minute - there is no doubt that they have already entered the pit, just See how far the devil wants to trap.

If the devil wants to save face, then other races in the other world can be called moral models.

Before the third expedition set off mightily, Nubida, who was trapped in the South China Sea, looked at the countless flying tentacles, and quickly came up with a "good way" - to use up the players' energy.

What?Why not think of a good way to get out of trouble?

Nubida is not in a hurry to get out of trouble. Anyway, the current situation is far from death. Nubida feels from the bottom of his heart that the players are more annoying than this unknown enemy.

He just wanted to see when the players would find out that they had been cheated. In order to speed up the process, he even proposed this "good way" to let the players consume the enemies.

Then he stared at the players who kept dying and thinking for a whole night, and finally ranked the players' IQs behind the dwarves with difficulty.

Although dwarves are very straightforward and stubborn, they are not so stupid.

The player actually believed it? !

Not only believed it, but also carried it out one after another, rushing out from the ether space to try to attack the enemy.

This kind of courage and stupidity born of immortality is a perfect match.

The supplies on the expedition team have long been exhausted due to getting lost, but food is not a necessity for demons, and almost all players have packed a bunch of messy things in the space bag, so the depletion of supplies did not cause them too much Impact.

Of course, it doesn't have much impact for a short time, and it doesn't matter to Nubida, but the food in the player's space bag will be eaten sooner or later.

Unfortunately, when the food ran out, the players were trapped in this tentacle-filled sea, so that the players couldn't find other sea creatures at all.

and so……

Nubida witnessed with his own eyes the whole process of the smoke rising from the kitchen, and the lively and lively tentacles that had been cut off turning into delicious roasted meat.

"It smells so good, Xiong Da, you can do it! This craftsmanship!"

"The point is that there are so many players who bring seasonings when they go out? What do you guys think when you come to do missions and bring seasonings?"

"I'm confused every day about what kind of sand sculpture players I'm playing with."

I am also confused about what kind of magical race I am going to sea with every day. Nubida squatted on the sail, lost in thought, and then said: "The reason and situation of this mutant creature are currently unknown. It has not been confirmed, and the possibility of mutation through bodily fluid infection cannot be ruled out."

The mouthful of the players almost shed tears.

"Hey, this is too delicious!"

Xiong Da took a bite by himself and was astonished. The taste was smooth but not greasy. After one bite, it seemed to melt directly in his mouth, with a lingering fragrance...

Xiong Da stared at his left hand, as if he had witnessed the miracle of becoming a chef overnight: "I baked this?"

"It's delicious..."

"The first half of my life was wasted..."

Some players suddenly woke up: "No wonder we always feel that planning is stupid. It turns out that we didn't find the right way to play the game! This is a food game!

"Xiong Da, what are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and barbecue! Everyone is waiting."

Nubida who was left aside:?

Even more eager players saw that Xiong Da was immersed in the miracle of becoming a chef overnight and didn't care about the barbecue at all, so he simply took the next stick and started grilling the meat conscientiously.

As a result, the praise that was still lingering in Xiong Da's ears just now lingered in Xiong Da's ears in an instant.

Xiong Da suddenly realized: "It's not because my craftsmanship is good, it's because the meat is delicious!"

The players holding it in their hands and eating it in their mouths paused when they heard the words, and suddenly turned their gazes to the tentacles scattered all over the sea outside.

If Nubida read it right, there seemed to be a raging fighting spirit in their eyes instantly. This fighting spirit was so fierce that the demon even began to sympathize with the enemy.

He doesn't know whether the enemy can be killed by the player's suicide attack.

But the player will definitely be able to realize the ambition of taking a piece of your flesh even if I die.

Nubida was right. Soon, the perfunctory life and death turned into an extremely sincere one.

To be honest, if it weren't for the players' fighting spirit bursting out for a piece of each other's flesh, the devil would not have known that the players' life and death before were actually perfunctory.

As expected of an undead creature, it didn't take death seriously at all.

After the players each had a skewer, they kindly gave food to the untouched demon.

The devil didn't pick it up, and let the player talk about the meat, but the devil didn't waver at all.

After all, the devil is the old man in such things as seducing people, and the player's eloquence can only be regarded as a trick in front of the devil.

On the ship that is speeding towards Dragon Island.

Kenti received the spiritual message from Nubida, hesitated for a few seconds, coughed, and interrupted the conversation where the others were asking about the situation on the top of the mountains.

"Nubida said..."

Mage, dwarves, druids, golden dragons, npcs, and players all cast their gazes at him.

Kenti's expression was a little strange: "The supplies on their ship are exhausted."

This is not surprising, the devil's ship has been floating on the sea for so long, and it should have been exhausted long ago. The question is why the other party suddenly sent back this news.

Anuta glanced at the expressions of the others, and then said: "They can't hold it anymore?"

"What does the devil want to do?" Lincoln, who distrusted the devil the least, spoke first, "The devil doesn't eat."

The whole continent knows this.

Demons eat everything and have the ability to store food energy. Even if they do not eat for many years, they cannot starve to death.

Even if the supplies on the ship are exhausted, it has nothing to do with the devil.

Kenti's expression became more and more strange: "The player has nothing to eat."

The other people at the scene fell silent, and cast their gazes at the five players present.

They really don't know if undead creatures like players will starve to death if they don't eat, but the problem is that they won't die, so it's worth thinking about.

Green Leaf coughed.Objectively said: "I'm afraid we can't do it if we don't eat."

Kenti hurriedly finished the next sentence: "The player ate the meat of the mutated creature. According to Nubida, the mutated creature is very delicious, and it can even make the player..."

Kenti glanced at the players present, and silently swallowed back Nubida's evaluation.

The king gave him a serious warning before boarding the ship—the situation is serious, and if the demon's solid state reoccurs, causing conflicts within the expedition team, then he'd better not board the ship.

So Kenti stood here, restraining his nature uncharacteristically.

"...creatures," Kenti said vaguely, "killing the enemy bravely, just to eat a few more bites."

It is something that players can do, and Luye came to the next conclusion logically, then this meat must be very, very delicious.

The etheric structure, who looked like a mascot, suddenly interjected: "Most of the creatures with delicious meat are subject to the natural environment and certain physiological requirements, but this kind of mutated creature itself is not a product of natural birth, it is particularly delicious... ..."

The other party was silent for a few seconds, and concluded: "Mutated organisms are very likely to be able to 'infect' other normal organisms through contact, food, etc. Very simple."

The scene suddenly fell into silence.

Tull King immediately denied its guess: "I have had close contact with mutant creatures on the top of the mountains... No, the dwarves and the people of the kingdom have all had close contact with the mutant creatures on the top of the mountains, but Currently, there are no intelligent creatures mutating."

"First of all, there may be a case of mutated creatures camouflaging. Secondly, the mutated creatures on the top of the mountains are different from the mutated creatures in the South China Sea, and they cannot be equated. Finally, this is just a suspicion, and we have not yet proven it."

"But it makes sense." Yan took over the words: "If it hadn't spread extremely quickly, the situation in the South China Sea would not have suddenly become so bad."

Adisseo is not sure: "So we can confirm this by observing the player's situation?"

When Wang Xuan heard this, he whispered to Du Kang: "Can players mutate?"

Ye Quan is not sure: "That depends on whether the plan is to open the next expansion? For example, the confrontation between mutated players and non-mutated players?"

Wang Lun, who knew more about the inside story, was shocked, and said in a voiceless voice, "Player won't mutate, right?"

Wu Xing's expression was very serious. If the player mutated on the earth, and considering the way this mutation is contagious, the recovery of spiritual energy can really be renamed Doomsday.

When the atmosphere at the scene froze again, Kenti silently added the remaining two sentences: "However, it was a day ago, and the players are still fighting the enemy heroically, without any changes...Of course, appetite It doesn’t count if you’re wide open.”

The atmosphere at the scene quietly relaxed.

The etheric structure said calmly: "The lack of mutation of the player does not mean that the mutation is not highly contagious. After all, the race of the player is fundamentally different from most races."

At least most races can't come back from the dead.

So the atmosphere on the scene became tense again.

Seemingly unaware, the ethereum continued: "I advise everyone, prepare for the worst about this."

"Your worst end is not only death, but also mutation." The great scientist who only came with a mechanical body said so.
