The players present were dumbfounded when they found out that Gu Ji was not just trying to scare those two people, but was really going out to look for someone.
Going out at this time? There are monsters surrounding us. Wouldn't we be swallowed by them if we go out now
In fact, the players are not scared when the tavern is attacked by monsters and collapses, and a group of people are buried in the basement. Anyway, once they destroy the magic circle and solve the crisis of Ella Town, they can leave the game world directly from here.
Mina and Gu Jiu were on good terms, and she asked worriedly, "Gu, are you really going out?"
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded at her, then turned to look at Huo Ting and Odinson.
Odinson said, "I'll guard here."
Huo Ting: "I'll go with you."
Hearing Huo Ting's words, Chen Zhiru became anxious, and Yang Bing also looked disapproving. There were so many monsters outside, and they didn't want to go out and take risks. It was much safer to stay in the basement than upstairs.
In the eyes of many players, Gu Jiu's behavior was like she was willing to die, although she didn't look like a stupid person who would willingly die.
"Brother Ting, let her go." Chen Zhiru said reluctantly, "She's very capable anyway."
Gu Jiu agreed, "It's rare for Chen Zhiru to say something sensible!" She ignored Chen Zhiru's angry face and said, "Huo Ting, if you stay here, I'm afraid it will be more dangerous here than outside."
Everyone looked confused, only Odinson and Hortin seemed to understand something.
Huo Ting did not insist on leaving with her. He handed a map that looked like it was drawn on parchment to Gu Jiu and said, "This is a map of Ella Town. Take it."
Gu Jiu understood what this was and smiled, "Thank you."
"Be careful." Huo Ting couldn't help but warned.
Gu Jiu took Lu Ji, Chai Yingying, Jiang Ze and others away.
"Gu, we'll go out with you too."
Mina, Alva, Allens and Joey all followed out. When the four of them saw Gu Jiu looking at them, they chuckled and said, "Somehow, we feel it's safe to follow you."
Looking at these four Western players, Gu Jiu smiled.
Because Gu Jiu had saved them when they first entered the town of Ella, the four of them had an inexplicable trust in Gu Jiu.
"It's very dangerous outside." Gu Jiu reminded.
"We know that no matter what happens, it's our own choice. We won't blame you." Mina said cheerfully, "We are B-level players after all. Although we are not as powerful as Odinson, we are not that bad."
They were a little embarrassed to admit that they had just entered the game world and were not prepared for the monsters. In addition, Alva was injured and held them back, which almost cost them their lives. However, they had also faced monsters on purpose in the past few days and had accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with monsters, so they would not lag behind.
Gu Jiu didn't say anything else. The eight people left the magic circle space and walked towards the passage.
When we arrived at the entrance of the basement, the adventurers who had been brought in for refuge were still lying on the stairs, sleeping soundly.
Gu Jiu slapped a wall, and the floor at the entrance sank, revealing an exit to the outside. The players were well prepared and moved aside to avoid the things falling from above.
Everyone looked up and saw that the entrance was blocked.
It is not surprising that the witch tavern was attacked by monsters, the house collapsed, and the basement was blocked.
Alva, who had the greatest strength, went over and pushed. The muscles in his arms bulged and he used all his strength, and was able to push the obstacle outside. But with this method, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out until tomorrow.
"What should I do?" Mina was a little worried.
At this time, Gu Jiu waved his hand and summoned three puppet rats.
As soon as the puppet rat came out, Mina and the others were startled and quickly jumped away. When they found that the three rats did not jump around, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Jiu looked at Chai Yingying, "Where's your puppet mouse? Did you buy it?"
Chai Yingying said embarrassedly: "I only bought one." The puppet rat was not very useful. Although it could swallow gold and silver and dig holes, that was all it could do. She was reluctant to waste her points on the puppet rat.
"One is fine, let it go out to work."
Including Chai Yingying's puppet rat, there were four in total. The two of them directed the puppet rats to dig holes in the ground, starting from the entrance of the basement and digging a passage leading to the outside.
Although the puppet rats are small, they dig very quickly, just like digging tofu, and soon dig out a tunnel.
It seemed like only a dozen minutes had passed before they felt the flow of air and realized that the puppet rat had dug through.
"This puppet rat is really convenient." Mina and others were a little envious. They heard that the props of Eastern players were varied and full of various kinds and full of fantastic ideas.
There are no useless props, it depends on when to use them.
The puppet rat dug a passage leading outside the tavern.
As they were about to go out, the players thought of the monsters, their bodies tensed up, and they clenched their weapons.
Gu Jiu walked in front and was the first to go out.
It was not until everyone stood outside the tavern that they suddenly realized that they did not see any of the monsters that they feared. If they had not seen the tavern turned into ruins behind them, they would have almost thought that the previous attack on the tavern by monsters was an illusion.
"Where are those monsters?" Mina and the others were confused.
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji were already walking quickly forward. Everyone came to their senses and hurriedly followed them.
"Miss, is this what you said, to make the thick fog dissipate in advance?" Chai Yingying looked at Gu Jiu with shining eyes, "How did you do it?"
Mina and the others subconsciously looked towards the sky and finally found that the thick fog had really dissipated, because they saw a few stars appear in the night sky, but they were too dim to notice them at first.
The town of Ella was pitch dark at night, so when they came out, they did not notice that the fog had dissipated.
Not to mention Mina and the others, even Jiang Ze, who was mentally prepared, was extremely surprised.
Gu Jiu said as he walked: "I asked Lisa and the mermaid doll to move the time of the big clock in the square forward. Now the time on the clock is twelve noon."
At twelve o'clock noon, the thick fog will dissipate.
Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze understood instantly, "This morning, you stayed in the big clock for ten minutes, just to do this?"
Mina also asked: "How do you know that the big clock can control the time when the fog will dissipate?"
Gu Jiu explained: "When I first entered the town of Ella, I appeared next to the big clock in the square. I thought the clock was a little strange, so I studied it and adjusted its time. I found that the clock was a magical item."
This morning, she stayed inside the stone wall for ten minutes to test the relationship between the big clock and the thick fog in the town. She finally confirmed that the big clock and the thick fog are closely related. As long as the big clock rings on time, the thick fog will disappear.
The time of the clock can be controlled artificially for a short period of time.
So she left the two ghost dolls there and let them obey her orders.
"However, the two ghost dolls cannot be controlled for too long. They can only be controlled for twenty minutes at most. We need to be quick."
Hearing Gu Jiu's words, everyone's expressions froze and they started running after her.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at Lisserstrasse.
The town was too quiet at night, and all residents hid in their dark rooms, not daring to make a single sound. Without the roar of monsters, this silence was even more frightening.
When he arrived at Xiao Ella's house, Gu Jiu took the initiative to knock on the door.
"Are you home, Ella?"
The room was very quiet, as if no one was there.
When Gu Jiu patiently asked for the third time, a small voice sounded, "Adventurer sister, is that you?"
"It's me." Gu Jiu's voice was very gentle, and it could easily soothe people's hearts in the quiet night. "Little Ella, I'll take you to find your grandmother, are you willing?"
There was no movement in the room for a long while.
After a while, the door was opened a crack, and little Ella stood behind the door, looking at her through the crack.
Gu Jiu looked down and gave the little girl in the door an exceptionally beautiful smile. In Chai Yingying's words, her smile was like that of the Virgin Mary, the Goddess of Love.
But kids just buy into this.
Little Ella came out, with anxiety and fear on her face. "Adventurer sister, do you really know where my grandmother is? When it was dark, my grandmother coaxed me to sleep, and when I woke up, she was gone."
At the end of her speech, the little girl's eyes were red, but she bit her lips tightly, not daring to cry out loud.
Gu Jiu picked her up and said as he walked quickly, "Your grandmother is in a safe place. She's fine. By the way, wasn't little Ella asleep? Why did she wake up suddenly?"
"I don't know either. It seems like someone is calling me."
Hearing the little girl's puzzled voice, the players present looked at her curiously, thinking that it might be because of something old Joseph and the others had done that woke her up.
Of course, it is also possible that the town of Ella is too dangerous and the little girl doesn't dare to sleep soundly.
A group of people ran towards the tavern. In the dark town, the only sound was their steady footsteps.
Little Ella hugged Gu Jiu's neck and looked at the dark town quietly. Her pair of emerald eyes seemed to flow with inexplicable light in the darkness.
"roar!"
The familiar roar of monsters sounded, and the players' hearts skipped a beat. They looked up suddenly and found that the stars in the night sky had disappeared, and thick fog had once again covered the entire town.
Chai Yingying said in shock: "How could it be? It's only been fifteen minutes."
She had great trust in Gu Jiu's judgment. She said it would take at most twenty minutes, so there would be a twenty-minute safe period. So if something unexpected happened suddenly, there must be something wrong.
Gu Jiu's face darkened, "Something happened at the magic circle, let's go!"
Mina and the other Western players were all confused, not knowing what was going on. Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze were not stupid, and they vaguely realized that the magic circle was not simple. There was also an important existence in the story of Ella Town - the devil. They always felt that this thing seemed to have a role to play...
The monsters appeared very quickly.
Gu Jiu threw the little girl to Chai Yingying, opened the map Huo Ting gave her, glanced at it, and said, "Follow me closely."
She led the way in front, following the map drawn by Huo Ting, perfectly avoiding the spatial points where each monster appeared and avoiding confronting them head-on.
Finally, they returned to the Witch Tavern.
Countless monsters gathered in the Witch Tavern again, even blocking the passage, which made people extremely anxious.
Alva stepped forward, knocked a monster away with one punch, and said to them: "I'll clear the way for you, you rush in." He was a strength player, and although he couldn't kill monsters, he had no problem knocking them away.
"There are too many monsters, this won't work!" Mina objected, not wanting to sacrifice her teammates.
"But… "
Alva wanted to say something, but a hand pulled him away and Lu Ji's voice rang out, "I'll lead the way, you guys go in later."
Hearing this, Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze were excited.
Has Boss Lu finally stopped relying on the eldest lady for free money and decided to take action
The two men stepped back excitedly, and very considerately pulled Mina and the others away so as not to disturb Boss Lu from showing off his power.
The monsters surrounding the tavern had spotted them and were rushing towards them.
Lu Ji was holding a black sword in his hand. No one knew what he did, but a group of monsters rushing towards him were sent flying backwards and fell far away.
Then, the monsters retreated as many as they came, and scattered like dumplings. A group of Western players were stunned and looked at Lu Ji as if he were a god.
They didn't have a deep impression of Lu Ji, because with Gu Jiu, the flamboyant young lady, standing in front, Lu Ji's brilliance standing beside her was overshadowed by her, and it was difficult to attract the players' attention. If he hadn't shown his power now, they would have thought he was Gu Jiu's follower, or a lover protected by Gu Jiu.
A group of people entered the passage smoothly.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance to the basement, they heard a strange voice that was not human and the screams of players coming from the basement.
