sweet [holographic]

The passenger ship continued to move forward, the fog became thicker and thicker, and the river became wider and wider.

The wind is not strong today, and the dense fog cannot be blown away. The high-hanging sun has also lost its enthusiasm in the past, and hides lazily behind the fog.Gradually, the trees on the bank moved away from the passenger ship, and it seemed that there was only this passenger ship left in the vast world.

After sailing for an hour and a half from the port, the passenger ship was ambushed by three waves of water monsters.

After the third wave of ambushes, the players were injured and scattered all over the deck, and some even went back to the cabin to rest.The only one that didn't take part in the fight the entire time was the Tchaikov egg, but as the ship's hope, no one disputed that.

Chen Tian was sitting in an inconspicuous corner, looking out from his perspective, he could not only see the bounty hunter still leaning on the mast for sightseeing, but also Hei Sha, Wushuang and orange soda.

If a best water stroke award was to be awarded in the three battles just now, Black Kill, Wushuang, Orange Soda, and Chen Tian himself were all strong contenders for this award.

As for the bounty hunter... Chen Tian secretly cast an identification spell on him and found that he had reached level 85.Leapfrog killing monsters, high risk and high return, requires absolute operational skills and courage.

Chen Tian is really more and more curious about him, but the most urgent thing is the king game.He opened the system panel again and found that there was still no movement on the main mission.

Until 5 minutes later, the turnaround finally arrived.

"Look there! Is there something?" A certain player's shout caught everyone's attention, and many people rushed over. Through the white mist, they saw some broken wooden boards floating on the water.

The crew quickly salvaged the plank, and after identification, it was confirmed that it was the wreck of the ship.

"The boat ahead won't be overturned by the water demon, right?"

"We have already fought three waves, and the Water Demon King is about to come out. Calculate the distance and time of the voyage, this place has already passed the boundary of Yueyin City, is it almost to Broken Gold City?"

Everyone chattered, and Tchaikov took the boards and checked them repeatedly, and found that one of the boards was engraved with the Eucalyptus logo.

This means that something has happened to the Eucalyptus.

Tchaikov seemed to have thought of something, took out his notebook and quickly flipped through a few pages, muttering something.Then he opened the discussion area again, and he didn't know what he was looking at, but he saw his fingers constantly scribing back and forth in the air, as if he was doing something.

Even Yin Sui squatted in front of him curiously, looked at the pile of things in front of him, and asked, "What did you find?"

Tchaikov Egg: "Position!"

As he said that, he raised his head, looked at Yin Sui with piercing eyes, and said excitedly: "For the first few rings, the cracking of each ring is related to the location. [Bedroom] needs to deduce the location of Miye City, [Zha C. Rich’s Escape Magic] needs to obtain coordinates, and the same goes for [Trek], everything will eventually lead to a place!”

Yin Sui: "What is it?"

Tchaikov Eggs: "Margarita Shipwreck!"

The excited voice attracted the attention of many players, but everyone looked at each other, not knowing what he was talking about.On the other hand, Tangerine Soda, who was still in disguise, thought about it for a while, leaned over and asked, "Is it the legend about the shipwreck's treasure?"

Tchaikov's egg suddenly seemed to have found a confidant, and he muttered like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube, "According to records, in the 126th year of the Sicilian continental calendar, that is, more than 100 years ago, there was a ship named Margaret that was leaving from Miye City. Sailing to Yueyin, the capital of the king, the boat was full of treasures to be dedicated to the king. But after many days, the boat never arrived at the destination. The king was furious and sent elite soldiers to search along the river. The sunken ship was found somewhere, but strangely, all the people on board disappeared, and the treasures also disappeared. There are rumors that the ship was attacked by a water demon, and some people said that the people on board swallowed it privately. Take the treasure and fly far away."

The players are still confused, because they have never heard of this legend.Tangerine Soda will know that it is also because Black Diamond is doing business and often sends boats to and from the Honey Wind River, and I heard some old sailors say it by chance.

Tchaikov stood up again, pointed to the front and said, "The location of the sunken ship should be not far ahead. Judging from the flow rate of the water and the wreckage of these boards, the source of these wreckage is also in that area."

"Treasure!"

The players bluffed.

"If you can find the treasure, wouldn't it be a post!"

"That's right, who cares about the king game?"

"Egg, are you sure there is really a treasure ahead?"

"..."

Tchaikov's eggs began to hurt again, and at this moment, the captain suddenly ran over and said to them: "Dear brave adventurers, I am very sorry. The hull is overwhelmed. If we continue to sail, there may be a risk of sinking the ship. We must quickly Stop at the shore."

But there are no villages or stores here, so if they disembark at this time, where can they find another boat to continue sailing?What if the system decides that they have failed in their mission and ask them to start all over again from the port of Midnight City, or simply eliminate them?

Moreover, the ship is not broken sooner or later, why is it said that there is a risk of sinking the ship at this time?

Judging from the NPC's reaction, Chen Tian felt that Tchaikov's egg's deduction was probably correct. This is the case with the game in "Distant Tales", which sometimes requires you to know enough about the continent.

He carefully observed the reactions of Heisha and Wushuang, and the two looked at each other vaguely, obviously agreeing with Tchaikov's egg.

The other players don't care so much, the treasure comes first, the king game comes first, they have to swim to the front even if they break the board or jump into the river.And at this moment, a knife with a cold glow rested on the captain's neck.

Unknowingly, Yin Suishen came behind the captain, held the captain hostage, and said, "Continue sailing."

Captain: "Yes, but—"

Yin Sui ignored him, glanced at the panic-stricken crew members around him, and slowly said two words: "Speed ​​up."

These crew NPCs are just ordinary NPCs, and they only execute simple instructions. If the captain is captured, then listen to the adventurer.After they returned to their respective positions, Yin Sui repeatedly tied up the captain with ropes.

A group of players called the experts directly.Tchaikov's eyes also widened. He just made a reasoning. Why did they suddenly control the ship and change from ordinary passengers to robbers? ? ?

"No, you tied up the captain, who will sail?" Tchaikov asked.

"Come here." Yin Sui raised his chin and pointed at the orange soda.

"Me?" The orange soda blinked.

"You don't want to?" Yin Sui smiled.

"No." The orange soda suddenly issued a warning of danger, and then said seriously: "I'll do it."

As the president of Black Diamond, he has so many boats, it is still possible to sail a boat.After everyone was in position, the dilapidated passenger ship began to move forward at full speed, Yin Sui jumped onto the mast, stood on the top of the tall mast and looked into the distance——

Ahead, the fog seemed to be getting thicker.

Chen Tian mixed in the crowd of players, imagining with the players next to him "what should I do if I get a lot of treasure", and quickly established a revolutionary friendship with the other party.

Yin Sui's suspicious eyes swept over him several times, but he didn't see any flaws.

Where did that tea tree mushroom go?

Yin Sui's search was fruitless, his eyes swept over Heisha and Wushuang indifferently, but he didn't stop there.These two people obviously also have problems. They want to pretend to be ordinary players. Although they look very similar, they can't cover up some excellent operational awareness when fighting monsters, so they deceive laymen.

But that doesn't matter.

When unimportant people do unimportant things, Yin Sui just watches.It's not as interesting as tea tree mushroom, which can be stewed in soup after being slaughtered.

The pretenders covered their little vests, each with their own ghosts.

Tchaikov's egg was still conscientiously reviewing his entire reasoning process there, and he thought of more details.After a while, there was a distant and long cry from ahead.

Because of the fog, the long cry was covered with a hazy coat, which was a bit mysterious.As the boat approached, the long cry gradually became clearer, and gradually turned into a cold human voice.

"Who disturbed my sleep?"

At the same time, the familiar system announcement sounded.

"Welcome to the Shipwreck Channel!"

"Here is a secret waiting to be discovered."

"Here is a group of undead waiting to go home."

"Forward or backward, that is the question."

"In this test of strength and wisdom, adventurers who lost their way, can you find the right way?"

"Remember, the Water Demon King is invincible, don't try to kill him."

Another infinite copy.

Everyone heard the broadcast, and the speculation was confirmed, and many people gasped.

"It's really the Water Demon King, a nightmare-level boss, how do you fight? There are shipwrecks all over the water, are those players who passed before, are they all wiped out?"

"Find the right way, what right way can there be?"

……

Amidst the discussion, the fog dispersed slightly, finally allowing Chen Tian to see the scene ahead clearly.I saw the wreckage of ships floating everywhere on the river, and the figure of water demon swimming in the water surface. As long as they approached, there must be a fight.

The ship stopped sailing, and no one wanted to approach rashly.

Tchaikov said with a serious face, "I speculate that after Alice and Nightingale left by boat last night, Mr. Zac led people to chase after him, and the two sides fought in front. The boss of the Water Demon King is everyone Do you understand? It is a wandering boss that appears once a month, but no one has ever known where its real lair is. Now it is not the time for it to appear, but it appears, which means that its usual sleeping place is extremely It may be the shipwreck of Margaret. Last night's battle woke it up, so the water monster will attack the player."

Another player immediately asked: "Then what about them? It can't be that they were all killed by the water demon king, right?"

Tchaikov shook his head: "This is the problem. NPCs at the core of the plot like Alice and Nightingale cannot die here. The system broadcast just reminded us not to try to kill the water demon king." Shipwreck, 'Secret', 'undead', every word reminds us that the correct path is neither forward nor backward, but downward."

Hearing this, Chen Tian couldn't help looking at the water.

The question now is, if the shipwreck of Margaret is really the lair of the water demon king, if he wants to explore the secrets of the shipwreck under its nose, isn't that courting death?

The hardest part is not here yet.

In addition to the water demon, there are also undead in the water.

There may be another name for this level, which is "who dies faster than anyone else".

The players began to wail: "How can this be played?"

Tchaikov's egg once again showed a thoughtful expression, "Actually, I have been thinking, how does the water demon achieve precise strikes?"

Precision strike.

As soon as these four words came out, Chen Tian had a clue in his heart.

Tchaikov's Egg: "We all know that in this game, large and small dungeons, its plot settings are basically logical, not rigidly set by the system. But from yesterday to today, except for those ships related to the king game Except for the disappearance, the other ships arrived at the port smoothly. How does the water demon know which ship to attack? Which ship should not be attacked? If it is just because the king was woken up, and it is angry at humans, it should be an indiscriminate attack."

"I suspect this is the problem." He said, he took out the silver-leaf bookmark, and showed it to everyone in his open palm.At this moment, Tchaikov's eggs are quite a bit of a detective's demeanor, and they are well-founded and eloquent.

"You mean, the water monsters recognize people by this? They can sense the breath of the silver leaf bookmark, so they think we are with Mr. Zach?" Black Kill finally spoke.

"Only this thing is the common point of all our players participating in the game of kings, and it is also the common point between us and Mr. Zack. Mr. Zack and Glion should belong to the same organization. See 'Zack Rich's Escape Magic' It sounds like a systematic deception, but have you ever thought about why there is a deception out of thin air? Where is the rationality for its existence?" Tchaikov's egg stared at Black Kill, expecting his answer.

Hei Sha was at a loss for words, and suddenly remembered the crimes he committed in that house and the "punishment" he received, and his mood was like riding a roller coaster, up and down.

Wushuang glanced at him and said nothing.

Chen Tian's eyes brightened slightly, "Are they having a meeting inside?"

Orange Soda: "Huh?"

"That's right!" Tchaikov clapped his hands excitedly, "A mysterious organization, there must be a place to meet. Judging from the fact that Glion desperately wants to pass the news to Mr. Zach, Mr. Zach is his superior. They I often participate in gatherings in Mr. Zac’s house, so the escape magic was born, not to prevent the people inside from escaping, but to prevent outsiders from breaking in. The silver leaf bookmark is a token of identification and a key for entry and exit!”

Everyone suddenly realized that this was the case.

Yin Sui said, "You want us to throw away the bookmark?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked at him.Yin Sui shrugged, and everyone went to look at Tchaikov's egg again. Tchaikov's egg explained: "If you are not very confident in your own strength, then I suggest you throw away the bookmarks. There are not only water demons in this level, but also With Margaret's undead, I don't know what's going on under the water. Throwing away the bookmark may cause losses, but if you don't throw it away, you will fail the test."

The author has something to say:

"Distant Legend", all the pretenders.
