MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 217 The lava lord also knows the existence of the player?
September 22nd, the eleventh game cycle, World of Endless Sea.
Wharf area of Wind's Rest, the second floor of a certain school.
Huang Yanyan listened to the sound of children reading books downstairs, and glanced at the brand new brass clock standing in the corner, which was as tall as a person.
A few days ago, when Huang Yanyan wanted to open a school in the dock area, her father, Mr. Warner, of Endless Sea, was firmly against it.
But Huang Yanyan didn't talk to him for two days, and Mr. Warner surrendered.
He thought about his daughter's waywardness, probably because of the influence of the new trends in those newspapers, and thought it was fun for a while, but she must have lost interest in a few days.
But he was still afraid that his daughter would suffer in the chaotic dock area, so Mr. Warner moved all kinds of good things to this old house used for running a school before going on a business trip to Wangcheng.
New desks, bookcases, lamps, carpets, and that brass clock...
These are newly moved in, and they look very out of place in this old house.
In addition, Mr. Warner assigned four bodyguards to Huang Yanyan, and now no matter where she goes, there are eight people following her.
And two of them are first-order transcendents.
It's not going to sea to take a remote route, Huang Yanyan thinks her father is a bit exaggerated.
But what made her even more helpless was that secretly, Huang Yanyan herself had been promoted to a second-level praying light person. When something happened, she didn't know who would protect whom.
The brass clock placed in the corner kept rattling, and at the moment, its hour hand was already pointing to 1:00 noon.
Huang Yanyan withdrew her gaze, it was time for lunch break, and she planned to visit Rhine later.
"I will find a way to understand the lava lord cocoon, what is your second task?"
Stowaway X said that there are two tasks that require the research institute to assist him, and Huang Yanyan asked about another task.
"Another, uh..."
X said with a smile, Huang Yanyan noticed something very longing in his eyes.
Hesitating for a while, X continued:
"Help me become governor of the Isle of Storms."
By the way, Huang Yanyan remembered that Qi Heng mentioned this matter in the letter to her.
"why?"
Huang Yanyan asked immediately.
In the endless sea, to overthrow the governor of a big island and replace it with someone without foundation is simply a joke.
Currently, in the endless sea, none of the official players has touched the core rights, and everyone is still a hard-working worker.
A wealthy family like Huang Yanyan, and an apprentice in a big organization like Qi Heng, is considered lucky.
As for planning to change the dynasty of an island, it is impossible for all players to add up.
But X brought it up like this, and Huang Yanyan felt that there must be something extremely tempting for him.
"Since we want to cooperate, I won't hide it from you."
X couldn’t hide it either, so he simply confessed the part:
"There is a godhead under Storm Island, which is exactly what I need.
But the condition for obtaining godhood is that one must become the master of the land of Storm Island.
This is something only second-level players can do. You can’t understand it if you are not at a lower level, so I can only explain it to you here. "
"I can't decide this matter, but it is conceivable that it is too difficult. Even if we really want to help you, we may not be able to succeed."
Huang Yanyan said ambiguous words, she wanted to stabilize X and get more information from him.
"I know, it must not be easy according to your thinking, coup d'état, war or something..."
Seeing that Huang Yanyan didn't refuse immediately, X began to talk about his plan:
"But I have another way, I come from another world, and I have the power system of another world.
Because I came here illegally, so my strength will not be discounted.
As long as you help me kill that Governor Pang, I can disguise myself as him, take his place as Governor, and still get what I want. "
Listening to X's plan, Huang Yanyan knew in her heart that it would be useful to pretend to replace her, and the difficulty would be much less.
but.
"The governor of Storm Island, Penrose Fell, is the fourth-rank and ninth-rank holy judge, and he is the highest combat power in the mortal world of the endless sea.
Leaving aside how many guards he has, can you meet him? Even if you have the chance, can you guarantee that you can beat him? "
Huang Yanyan gave X a basic introduction, and then used it to test X's strength.
"Oh, don't worry, the transcendence of the endless sea is really powerful, but I also control the force of our world, and I also have the mourning bird.
Oh yes, the Mourning Bird is a...well, pretty high-tech rifle for you guys.
Seriously, I could change the King of the Great Sea if I wanted to. "
X was full of superiority, and said smugly.
But Huang Yanyan just took away the empty food box, she knew that X was bragging, and he was bragging to no avail.
After showing off for a while, X asked Huang Yanyan the identity prepared for him.
"What? Work as a security guard at your school?"
After learning about Huang Yanyan's arrangement, X was very dissatisfied.
"It's not a security guard, it's a guard."
Huang Yanyan corrected.
"No, big sister, your family is so rich, you should get me to guard your house anyway, this house is dilapidated."
"My family is an aristocratic family, and the recruitment of personnel is extremely strict. You don't even have an identity, and you don't know a common language. How can you get in?"
Huang Yanyan said something coldly. After checking the time, she stood up and went to do other things.
After some contact, she had a very bad impression of X.
This person is trying every means to force the research institute to assist him in completing the task, but he keeps silent about the reward for the task.
Talk about cooperation, but always vague on key issues.
Moreover, without knowing the extraordinary ability of the endless sea, he was overconfident.
You must be very cautious when cooperating with him, otherwise you will be easily killed by him.
After arranging some specific details related to X, Huang Yanyan left the school.
…
"Then do you know when Mr. Rhine will come back?"
"Well, probably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, he said that he will be back soon after going out to sea this time."
On the afternoon of September 22, in the outer city of Fengxi City.
Outside the door of a small two-story building, Huang Yanyan was inquiring about news from the neighbors of this small building.
Just now, after missing the afternoon break, Huang Yanyan came to Rhine's residence she had inquired about.
However, to Huang Yanyan's regret, she heard from Rhine's neighbor that Rhine had gone to sea on business.
'It turned out that the reason why he didn't reply to the letter was because he was not at home. '
Looking at the letter slot on the door, Huang Yanyan was in a better mood, at least the other party didn't mean not to reply.
Moreover, there is still half of this cycle, and Rheinming will come back the day after tomorrow, and then he will visit again.
Huang Yanyan thought in her heart, no matter what, before returning to the player world next time, she should be able to learn the information needed by the research institute from Rhine.
…
The sun sets and the moon rises, and the dark sky is full of stars.
Leaving the Tomb of Yseralai, Li Feng, Xi Ya, Hai Zan, and Delana went back to their home in Wind's Rest after tossing around in the sea for a while.
In order to help Li Feng seal Cocoon and contact the mermaid clan, the mermaid clan leader asked Delana to return with him.
Looking at the time, it was already midnight.
Li Feng lights up the gas lamp in the study, letting the warm orange light shine.
Based on the mermaid patriarch's explanation before parting, Li Feng began to examine his new mission.
【Seal the awakening lava lord cocoon. After success, use the talent skill on Storm Island—Infinite Fishing to get Creator Fragments. 】
The quest description is very clear, Lava Lord Cocoon is waking up.
Guessing from another angle, someone is waking him up.
At the moment, Li Feng can already confirm that the people who want to awaken the cocoon of the lava lord are Penrose Fell and Marthas.
Moreover, these two people are probably soul fused together, and their ranks have probably been promoted to the fifth rank.
However, because of Jory, the Earthen Ring has noticed the bloodless corpse.
Soon, the Black and White Academy will also join in because of the traitor Marthas.
So, Penrose Fell and Marthas, who have to pretend, are facing pressure, but Li Feng is not so worried.
What really caught his attention was what the mermaid patriarch said to him in private when he was parting.
At that time, the mermaid patriarch told Li Feng.
Like angels or merfolk, lava lords are aware of travelers.
And they have their own way of detecting who is a traveler.
Just like the murals in the tomb of Yseralai, when the world was created, the magma in the center of the earth was polluted, and eleven lava lords were born from it.
In order to stop them, the Creator God sent down seven extraordinary powers.
Because it existed at the beginning of the creation, the lava lord, like the angel, also knows the secret of the creator god.
They know that in the thousands of stars, there are countless worlds created by the Creator God.
Chuangshi God is sending travelers from other worlds to come here to complete his mission.
But unlike angels, lava lords hate the God of Creation, so naturally they also hate travelers.
In the era when the lava lords were not completely sealed, they searched for travelers all over the world and drove them away with death.
‘So, it is possible for Cocoon, who is waking up, to discover my existence? '
Li Feng thought about it:
‘Then the best way is to seal him again before Cocoon officially wakes up. '
Thinking about the current plan, Li Feng began to think, where is the cocoon?
In the task description given by the system, there is no clear reminder.
If you have to guess.
On the one hand, Cocoon should be on the Isle of Storms.
Because the quest mentions Storm Island, the creator fragments are also under Storm Island. They are in the same quest as Cocoon, so it is hard to say that they are not related.
But on the other hand.
Before going to sea this time, Li Feng heard Haizan talk about the recent unrest at sea and the pirates he met on Sunset Island.
The pirates used a blood-red cocoon that released filthy maggots during the battle with the Black and White Academy.
The mermaid patriarch said that the blood-red cocoon was given to them by the lava lord.
So, Cocoon gave power to those who awakened him, and these people are using this power to rob ships at sea.
I think of what happened to Captain James of the Sun and his crew.
Li Feng discovered that the pirates were not in a hurry to take their lives, so it should be for other purposes.
Judging from this, does the cocoon of the lava lord seem to be at sea again?
He is instructing believers to capture living people and sacrifice them to him?
It's not impossible.
Delineated two target locations, Li Feng planned to investigate in Wind's Rest City first.
But Cocoon has the ability to perceive that he is a traveler, so he must be extremely careful.
Although he has not yet awakened, who knows what kind of abilities these extraordinary creatures that existed when the world was created will have.
Just like the cocoon gave those pirates blood-red cocoons, didn't he do it before he woke up?
Outside the window, the autumn moon is falling in the west, and the night is cool.
After making several plans in detail, Li Feng turned off the lights and rested.
…
September 23rd, the eleventh game cycle, Endless Sea World.
The dawn of the morning is bright, and the blue sky is crisp and clear.
When Li Feng had just finished washing, Xi Ya came with a stack of letters.
She came back too late last night, fearing to alarm others, so Xi Ya didn't go back to Storm's End, and stayed in Li Feng's guest room.
"your letter."
In the morning, Xi Ya found the letter thrown in the door and brought it to Li Feng.
Li Feng opened the letters one by one, and found that they were basically irrelevant letters, but there were two that made him feel very strange.
Baron Warner's daughter, Miss Warner, invited him to a school in the dock area to tell the children about the history of Storm Island.
And what Li Feng couldn't understand was that Miss Warner sent the letter with the same content twice.
It's like in the player world, due to the network card, repeated messages are sent.
But this is sending a letter. The same letter will be written again within two days. What kind of thinking is this?
"Hey, is it Miss Warner's family?"
Seeing Li Feng comparing the two letters, Xi Ya also moved over curiously.
"Can you give a history class, please? Oh yes, I remembered."
Shia said as if remembering something:
"About seven or eight days ago, I heard that Miss Warner bought a house in the dock area and opened a free school for children from poor families.
She probably wants to invite you to give lectures in that school. "
"So it is."
Li Feng nodded clearly, instinctively changed his impression of Miss Warner, and found that she was not as unruly and capricious as rumored.
But now at this juncture...
Li Feng hesitated for a moment, folded the two letters and put them in the drawer.
"Eh? Aren't you going to reply to people's letters?"
Xia blinked, and asked Li Feng happily and curiously.
"Let's talk about it after a while."
Li Feng sighed, he really wanted to accept the invitation to teach children knowledge.
If possible, Li Feng is even willing to be an unpaid teacher for a long time.
After all, he has the three views of the player world, and there are indeed too many unacceptable things to look at the social problems of this world with his three views.
Just now, Cocoon is waking up, and Cocoon may discover her identity as a player.
These uncertain risk factors made it difficult for Li Feng to focus on other things.
"That's right, but letters always have to be returned to others, right?"
Shea seemed to be obsessed with this question.
Li Feng: ...She did it on purpose.
"I think Mr. Warner..."
Xia was intentional, and Li Feng was not polite anymore, talking about what happened some time ago:
"He intends to marry his daughter to me."
"Oh?"
Xia pretended to be surprised and dragged a long ending:
"That's not right, your wish to eat soft rice is about to come true!"
Li Feng: ...Sure enough, she did it on purpose.
"Think about it, Miss Warner is Mr. Warner's only daughter, and Mr. Warner is widowed and unmarried, that is to say, he will only have this one daughter.
If you marry her, wouldn't the Warner family's property spread across the endless sea be yours?
At that time, what lava lord, what godhead, what else do you need?
Using what you said before, how nice it is not to struggle! "
Xia squinted her eyes, teasing Li Feng happily.
Li Feng was speechless.
"No, you can't look at me with the same eyes you used to. I do now, and I have a higher pursuit of life."
Li Feng said and closed the drawer where the letter was placed, to show his firm attitude.
Seeing this, Shia just smiled and didn't say anything further.
At the end of the episode, Li Feng thought of Cocoon again, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly heard many terrified shouts from outside the window.
Realizing that something might be wrong, Li Feng and Xi Ya immediately went to the window to check.
They saw someone running eagerly to tell each other something.
At the same time, the door behind them rang, Haizan and Delana walked in quickly, and they said immediately when they saw Li Feng.
"There are many weird bugs in the dock area, some of them can fly, and they have already flown to the outer city."
'Bugs...'
Reminiscent of the maggots released by the pirates, Li Feng and Xi Ya instantly understood what Hai Zan meant.
"It seems that the lava lord Cocoon is losing his temper. He is planning something."
Based on last night's plan, Li Feng thought quickly.
"Your Excellency, what should I do?"
Hizan asked, Xi Ya and Delana also looked at Li Feng.
"Hai Zan, take someone to sea and see if there are any suspicious ships or people nearby."
Thinking that the cocoon might be hidden in a certain ship at sea, Li Feng asked Haizan, who was holding the tidal scepter, to go to sea to find clues.
Afterwards, Li Feng asked Delana to stay in the outer city.
And himself, he went to the dock area where the bug was first discovered.
"Then I will go with you."
Shea heard that she would also go to the dock area.
"Do not."
Li Feng shook his head and said to Xi Ya:
"Go back to Storm's End and see if there is anything unusual there, and the governor's attitude towards this matter."
Hearing this, Xi Ya immediately understood what Li Feng meant.
"it is good."
After nodding her head in agreement, the air around Shia tore slightly, and she turned into a black cat, heading towards Storm's End.
Hizan disappeared into the sea with his hands.
Li Feng didn't delay, and rushed to the dock area immediately.
