Chapter 117 The Task of the Maze NPC
Chapter 117 The Task of the Maze NPC
With the concerted efforts of Daimao and Wu Ming (?), the two long spears pierced three points into the wood—or the three points into the wall got stuck in the midair of the passageway, and Ji Qiming's crossbow bolt was smoothly wrapped around the spear with a long rope After a few laps, it was tied again by Daimao, and the other end of the long rope was fixed on the stone pillar he made by Wuli Liuguang, and a simple zip line appeared in the maze passage out of thin air.
Thanks to the previous shipwreck, Ji Qiming and the others still kept a lot of belts they found in the luggage of the tourists, and each of them had one belt. Putting it on the zipline, they slid all the way to the opposite shore by virtue of the height difference of the rope.
There are still several sections of stone passages like this left, and they followed the same pattern. After repeating this process several times, they finally came to a stone door.
The pattern on the stone gate is complicated, but there is a depression in the center. The light was dim and I squinted my eyes for a moment, then I took the necklace of the Sea God token from my neck and put it in the depression. Sure enough, the Sea God token It was inserted into the stone gate very smoothly, and a golden light flowed along the pattern on the stone gate, and with the sound of a click, the stone gate slowly opened.
Several people tensed their nerves and went in, but saw a square stone room behind the stone gate, with a pool in the center, and a platform in the center of the pool, with nothing on it.
"What's the situation?" Ji Qiming looked left and right, but didn't find the next entrance, "We're not going to a dead end, are we?"
"Don't say such unlucky words." Wu Ming pinched Ji Qiming's face, "There is something in the pool."
Sure enough, there was a splashing sound in the pool, and something swam out from the bottom of the pool, jumping out of the water with a splash, and the water waves created by the huge fish tail splashed the heads and faces of several people who were caught off guard—of course, none of them Wu Ming.
Ji Qiming silently wiped the water off his face, glared resentfully at Wu Ming, who was smiling and watching the joke with his hands folded on his chest, and angrily shifted his gaze to the creature that climbed up the central platform of the pool.
It turned out to be a mermaid, and it wasn't the tailless mermaid that appeared in their dimly lit village before, nor was it the manatee that frightened people to death in the passage, but the kind in fairy tales with shiny blond hair, A pretty face, a slim waist of a water snake, and a scale!The mermaid of the bright fishtail.
The mermaid sat sideways on the platform, swaying its long fish tail, and looked at them with a mysterious smile on the corner of its mouth: "Welcome to the puzzle world of disorder and chaos──【Maze of the Inner World】~ I It is your guiding task NPC in this labyrinth, Fitana."
"There are guidance task NPCs in this maze..." Wuli Liuguang murmured, "Isn't there usually only one game world?" And it's only for beginners.
"Puzzles are only interesting if you give enough clues to solve them. If you don't follow the rules, the game will lose its fun." Fitanna the mermaid shook her fish tail, "If you can solve the puzzles and reach me, You must have spent a lot of brains on the Five Elements Stone Path before, right?"
Basically, everyone who cheated all the way here laughed dryly.
"Since you have come to the labyrinth of the inner world, you must know that your goal is to get as many five slates as possible in this maze, right? There are five guidance task NPCs in this maze, and each NPC is guarding a slate , I am also one of them. Only those who fulfill our wishes and our wishes can get the slate from our hands, otherwise, they have to step over our corpses~" Fitana said with a smile, "But, It is not an easy task to defeat us, we all have strength above level 150~ So it is better to please us obediently, if I am happy, maybe I will give you some good things. "
──Sure enough, is it an unchanging law of online games to hug your thighs desperately when you see an NPC?
"What do you want us to do for you?" Wu Ming asked straightforwardly.
"Actually, it's not that hard~" Fei Tanna said, "I'll give you three rounds of missions, and each round has three missions with difficulty C, A, and S, and you can choose any one of them to complete. After passing this round of tests, I will give you corresponding score evaluation and rewards, and I will give you slates after completing the three rounds of tasks. However, if you are willing to complete the three tasks of each round, I will Score and reward according to the three S-level missions you completed in this round. It’s just that it’s not easy to complete all these missions. These missions not only test your combat strength, but also your mental endurance and outlook on life and worldview values, so Even if you accept the task but fail to complete it, I will not deduct points for you."
──It seems to be a good deal.
"But if you can't complete even one task in one round, I will eat you as snacks~" Fei Tanna added.
"Understood, let's release the mission." Wu Ming said with a cold face.
Fei Tanna smiled, picked up a handful of water and sprinkled it into the air, the water droplets immediately condensed into three scrolls, which fell into the hands of Wu Ming, Ji Qiming and Deng Huo Lanshan.
The three of them opened the scroll tacitly.
In the dim light, she first shared the task in hand.
[In the Labyrinth - Mermaid Royal Fittana - First round of missions
C-rank mission: Mermaid's earring
Fitanna accidentally lost her favorite earring in this pool. Although this pool is her world, finding the earrings is really not worth her doing. Why don't you ask players to do it for her.
Fitana's earrings 0/1]
──It really doesn't seem to be difficult.
The lights were dim and I made a rough estimate: "The mental strength of the Doraemon should be able to easily locate the earrings. If I cooperate with Wuli Liuguang, I should be able to temporarily draw away the water here. As long as there is nothing strange in the water, get the earrings." Shouldn't be a problem."
Wu Ming then shared the scroll task in his hand:
[In the Labyrinth - Mermaid Royal Fittana - First round of missions
A-Level Quest: Nasty Piranhas
I do not know when some piranhas broke into the pool. Although mermans are far more ferocious than them, it is always annoying to have these little carnivorous things in the pool. Please kill her.
Ferocious piranha 0/50]
──So if you simply accept a C-level task, it may not be so easy to complete.
The corner of Ji Qiming's mouth twitched as he shared the task in hand.
[In the Labyrinth - Mermaid Royal Fittana - First round of missions
S-rank mission: mermaid food
Human beings regard mermaid meat as the supreme delicacy, a piece of mermaid tail meat can make people live forever, but what is little known is that mermaids also regard human beings as delicacy, especially the human heart is the mermaid's favorite.
Fitana, who has lived underground for a long time, misses the human heart a little bit, please find some for her.
Human Heart: 5/5 (Completed and ready to hand in)]
"...Wait, why is it in a completed state?" Wuli Liuguang was puzzled.
"Cough..." Ji Qiming turned his head to look at Dai Mao, who hesitated for a few seconds under the gaze of his master, and finally reluctantly took out a few human hearts from his pocket.
"Oh, I packed it before, and I want to eat it as a snack." Dumao QAζQ looked regretful.
Recalling the scene of Daimao messing with the corpses of the five-member pirate player group before, Wuli Liuguang held back the contents of his stomach welling up in his throat, and began to regret why he had so many idiot questions.
