With the personal mention of the NPC, Li Yinhang finally remembered it.
Isn't this the work of Mr. Andersen
Eleven brothers were debuffed by the insidious stepmother's curse and turned into wild swans.
The beautiful and miserable little princess traveled all the way to find a way to break the curse for her brothers.
She had to find nettles from church graves, crushed the spinning threads, endured the stings and blisters caused by the nettles, weaved long sleeves of armor, and put them on her brothers until they returned to human form.
The ending is of course happy.
Jiang Fang lowered his eyes and asked Nan Zhou softly, "Do you know this story?"
Nan Zhou nodded: "Yeah." I read it when I was sleeping.
The blond girl in front of her held down a pair of blood-stained hands, and her peach blossom-like eyes curled up with delightful charm: "Please make a choice."
Nan Zhou will not be led by her words.
He asked back, "What are the different rules of the game for the players and the elected 'wild swans'?"
"Very simple."
The girl's smile is stylized and gentle: "The two 'wild swans' that were selected don't have to do anything. Just stay here, pay enough trust and wait for your companions, and that's it."
She stepped on the soft, fresh grass under her feet.
In the diffused aroma of grass juice, she continued to answer softly:
"As for the selected players, they will become 'princesses'."
"I knitted two nettle clothes and put them in one place."
"There is a starting point for the 'Princess'."
"When you decide who the 'Princess' is, she will come to her starting point. Just take the nettle armor I put there, put it on the 'Wild Swan', lift the curse, and the door of victory will come naturally will open for you."
Nan Zhou confirmed to the girl, "This is the end point?"
The girl nodded gracefully.
Nan Zhou: "After we confirm the 'Princess' candidate, TA will be teleported from here to another starting point?"
The girl nodded again.
Nan Zhou: "Will it be dangerous for the princess to come here?"
The girl answered every question and was quite gentle: "There is no danger."
This answer is quite surprising.
Nan Zhou raised his eyebrows: "'No danger'?"
The melodious voice of a girl's spring water fits perfectly with the blue sky behind her, the fresh sea of grass, and the pink lamb like cotton candy.
Extraordinarily happy, but also extraordinarily false.
The girl gave a firm and identical answer: "There is no danger."
"No swamps. No bad weather. No kings trying to kidnap you, no hunters—"
She seemed very satisfied with the simple, fairy-tale-like game design.
Speaking of happiness, she opened her hand.
A gust of breeze blew just right, swaying the corner of her blue dress embroidered with nettle patterns.
She said with a smile: "In short, there will be no 'foreign objects' that threaten the life of the 'Princess'."
With her words, she constructed a simple and almost unintelligent game rule.
But all three noticed that her wrists were as white as jade.
The palms were heavily bloodied.
This added a different kind of weirdness to her brisk and gentle tone.
Seeing that there was no response, she didn't see any disappointment, she lowered her arms naturally, and casually rolled a lock of golden curly hair in front of her forehead: "Of course, it still requires some physical effort, and the level is not without difficulty."
"The 'Princess' has to go through 13 doors in total."
"The door that the 'Princess' walked through will not disappear, but will always wait in place."
"As long as the 'princess' thinks the game is too difficult and doesn't want to continue, she just needs to turn around, push open the door she walked past, and then she can leave the game directly."
"But the two friends of the 'Princess' will stay forever and live happily here—"
As if to echo her words, accompanied by the words "happiness and happiness", a line of swans with feathers or snow-white, brown, or fiery red, flying together from a distant green pool, submerged. Between clouds.
The blonde girl grinned, revealing a row of beautiful and neat teeth, and made a gentle conclusion: "Of course, after successfully passing through 13 doors, the 'Princess' can take the 'Wild Swan' away."
Under the influence of Nan Zhou, Li Yinhang also began to read the copy information with reverse thinking.
She confirmed to the blond girl: "The physical strength required for this task can be accomplished by any of the three of us."
The girl nodded and smiled, "Yes."
Li Yinhang settled down.
If the information given to them by the teenage NPC is true...
Li Yinhang turned his head and asked Ying, "I'll go."
Nan Zhou raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Of course I'll go."
He thought it should be a matter of no controversy.
But Li Yinhang said: "Everyone said that if you want a princess, isn't this a girl named by name? My physical strength is not bad, and I need to exercise alone. Besides, she said that there will be no dangerous 'foreign objects' on the road. "
Li Yinhang gave four reasons in one breath.
Nan Zhou's response was only four words: "No. I'll go."
He did not think that Li Yinhang did not need the opportunity to exercise alone.
He felt that there was a strange aura under the candy-colored, transparent and harmless shell of this copy.
In this kind of situation where he couldn't figure out the truth, letting her out would be more like dying than exercising.
Just as Nan Zhou was about to dissuade him, he heard Jiang Fang take the words from behind: "I'm coming."
Nan Zhou turned his head and glanced at him lightly, not very happy: "..." You came too.
Nan Zhou felt that his knight ability was being questioned.
Why don't you want me to protect you
Jiang Fang stared at him without hesitation and gave his reason.
"Just now, Yinhang and you both wasted a lot of energy in the library."
"Especially you. You're mentally sensitive, you've done so much damage, and your body shouldn't have fully recovered, right?"
Nan Zhou pursed his lips.
This is the default judgment of Jiang Fang.
Jiang Fang took a step closer to Nan Zhou and lowered his voice: "I'm a person who can't fully trust others."
"If I let you or Yinhang go, and let me be a wild swan who can't do anything, I can't bear to wait here and let others decide my fate."
His rare frankness made Li Yinhang beside him stunned.
She had long seen Jiang Fang's indifference hidden under his perfect smile, as well as his almost fanatical desire for control.
But she didn't expect that he would be able to realize and be willing to express his weakness.
"I don't want to put my safety in someone else's hands..."
Jiang Fang lowered his voice to the lowest level, to the point where he could barely hear himself: "...But, if you are at the end, I will definitely come."
That way, he can pretend he never said it.
And Nan Zhou could also hear his innermost thoughts.
After hearing Jiang Fang's confession, Nan Zhou lowered his head and looked at his heart in surprise.
It jumped so fast that it hurt his ribs.
This made Nan Zhou very uncomfortable.
He thought, obviously there is no full moon here.
After a brief silence, Nan Zhou took out the level 3 light chain and the S-level skill card from the warehouse and handed them over to Jiang Fang.
This was Jiang Fang's decision to acquiesce.
Li Yinhang took the initiative to give up her "Don't go out in the sandy weather" and "Your mother told you to wear long pants".
Jiang Fang smiled, but didn't refuse. He picked out a few items that he couldn't use in his storage slot, and exchanged materials with them.
The two who decided to stay together made a concerted effort to put the most effective props into Jiang Fang's palm together, so as to deal with the thirteen doors that the blonde girl called "no danger" but had unpredictable "difficulties".
The blond girl who had a panoramic view of this scene was unmoved.
Her smile seemed to be glued to her face alive.
She asked with a smile: "So, have the candidates been confirmed?"
After getting the unanimous and affirmative answer from the trio, the girl raised her bloody index finger and drew two rays of light in the air.
In the warm golden light like a fairy tale, the figures of Nan Zhou and Li Yinhang quickly shrank.
Clothes and skin were fused together by the light that flooded in like golden water.
Plump and fluffy feathers grow and bloom from their bodies.
No pain, just itchy.
After confirming that he had really transformed, Li Yinhang immediately spread his wings and went to see his coat color.
Even if she becomes a goose, she hopes to become a beautiful goose.
To her disappointment, she is the most common grey-feathered swan.
To make matters worse, she couldn't even tell the difference between her own male and female.
And even if Nan Zhou had turned into another species, he was much more beautiful than her to the naked eye.
She thought sadly: ... Is it true in fairy tales too
Nan Zhou's feathers are clean, the roots are snow-white, and there are no impurities.
The fur on the neck is especially fluffy and soft, like a warm white scarf in winter.
The tail seems to be tied with a pure white streamer.
And bright red beak, and black eyes.
Every color was brought into full play on him.
After Li Yinhang and Nan Zhou both turned into geese, the only thing they had in common was the addition of a pure gold collar on the upper side of their left leg.
The collar shimmered brightly, and on it was a smaller, decorative little gold ring.
"This is a temporary sign that you belong to this place temporarily."
Seeing Li Yinhang pecking at the golden ring on his leg curiously, the blond girl explained gently, "When the game is over, remember to take it off in time. Otherwise, it will hurt a lot when you become human again."
"However, if you are unwilling to take it off, there is no problem. After a while, it will be a permanent gift. Just treat it as a gift from me to you."
Nan Zhou didn't listen much to the commentary of the girl who smiled and said Yan Yan.
He raised his head and looked straight at Jiang Fang in front of him.
Jiang Fang gently touched his head with his lips, and whispered to him, "Have you thought of where this is in your brain?"
Nan Zhou shook his head.
There is so little information that it is difficult to judge.
Jiang Fang just asked, so that he could think about other things and not worry too much about himself.
With his thumb, he lightly tapped a soft patch between Nan Zhou's forehead, leaving a fluffy fingerprint.
… feel good in the hand.
I want to goose.
But he hid his thoughts under a reassuring smile.
"Don't move."
"wait me back."
Nan Zhou's words suddenly sounded familiar.
… this face, this voice, this sentence.
The familiarity made him suspicious that he was under the full moon again, and even his breathing was disturbed for a few breaths.
But the familiarity is fleeting.
As if the constriction of the heart was just the product of an illusion.
Nan Zhou nodded: "I will wait for you here."
Jiang Fang brushed the fluff on the top of his head with his fingertips, raised his head, and nodded slightly to the blond girl, indicating that it was time to start.
His figure was enveloped by the same shiny golden light as before.
When he emerged from the golden light that covered the sky like a strange flower, everything in front of him made him frown slightly.
The scene has not changed much.
Clear sky, green grass, and a small pool in the distance.
Only without sheep, swans and Nanzhou.
With nothing to hide, Jiang Fang could see that there was a small square black spot about 800 meters away from him in a straight line.
It looks like a door.
The sight in front of him, and the final mission he was going to accomplish, reminded Jiang Fang of... a live-action simulation side-scrolling game.
He looked down at his body.
The face is still his face, and the choker between the neck has not changed.
But his clothes were changed.
Sapphire blue and off-white make up the main color lo skirt, which makes his complexion cooler and whiter than snow in the climate of Eastern Europe.
Thin white pearl brooches overlapped down.
The particles that fell on the skirt were like the sand that was sprinkled after crushing the stars.
He tugged at the yarn knot on his chest, and turned his head to look behind him at the thin straps that exposed most of his right-angled shoulders, which he was willing to cross at his thin waist, almost laughing out loud. Come.
... really a princess.
The girl stood slenderly in front of him and said with a smile, "The game starts from here."
"When you go through the first door, you have the right to leave at any time."
Speaking of this, her smile became deeper and unfathomable: "Don't let your friends down. They are willing to become swans for you." :,
