Time passed, and with Alifa's help, Xiao Zhi's doll took shape little by little.
Three days later, a puppet appeared, a female puppet whose height only reached Xiao Zhi's chest.
She has long pink hair, a snow-white complexion, and exquisite and beautiful features. The eyelashes are as long as a lupine, her eyes are made of purple gemstones, and under the light of the shells, they are shining with a lovely light, her lips are delicate and pale pink, and there is a faint blush on her cheeks.
The joints of the doll are movable spherical joints, and Xiao Zhi placed a kind of tough material in it as tendons, so that the doll can move.
According to the aesthetics of the big octopus, Xiao Zhi made pink clothes for the doll.
The tiered skirt was made from flexible seaweed, a specialty here, and was dotted with another seaweed that looked like lace. There are also some pearl necklaces and jewelry that Xiao Zhi found in the residents' homes, which he dismantled and rearranged and made into skirt decorations, making the whole skirt look full of sweet dreamy girlish atmosphere.
The decoration on the doll's head, hands, and shoes is also the same style.
Exquisite! sweet! Cute explosion!
Xiao Zhi put down the tools in his hand and admired his masterpiece.
Three seconds later, he couldn't help closing his eyes, and turned his face away in pain: "..."
I'm sorry, although he made it himself, he still can't appreciate this style. It feels like the whole doll is bursting with pink bubbles.
But the big octopus will probably like it very much.
The puppet is ready, now is the most difficult part - redeeming Lance.
Xiao Zhi and the big octopus have a language barrier, he wonders if the big octopus can understand what he means by exchanging dolls for Lance, if it thinks that only stupid human beings make the choice, the big sea monster should all want what? manage
Maybe not only can't exchange Lance back, maybe even Xiao Zhi himself will be taken away.
But you always have to take a risk, Xiao Zhi thinks that the big octopus should like this pink girl doll more than himself in black and the fierce-looking Lance.
Xiao Zhi glanced at Alifa: "Does Alifa want to go with me? Or wait for me here?"
Alifa climbed onto his shoulder decisively: "Goo."
That's what it means to go together.
"Okay." Xiao Zhi patted Alifa's head, and left the house with the pink doll. They were still followed by a group of colorful small fish, because they had to face the dangerous big octopus, Xiao Zhi also tried to drive away the school of fish, but this group of curious guys were unwilling to leave at all.
Xiao Zhi had no choice but to take a group of small fish to meet the big octopus.
·
According to Alifa's instructions, the location of Lance and the big octopus is still the same as before. Xiao Zhi carefully used the building to hide his figure, and slowly swam towards that side.
Xiao Zhi quietly poked his head out from behind the building, looking towards the big octopus.
Lance was still sitting in the same place with nothing to love. He had changed a piece of clothes, and there were several small skirts beside him. Perhaps all of these were changed by Lance in the past two days.
Xiao Zhi looked sympathetic, and said in a low voice: "Lance has really worked so hard..."
Alifa: "Goo..."
It's so miserable, I won't beat Lance this time when I go back, Alifa thought very generously.
The big pink octopus on the side is still weaving the seaweed with great interest. The seaweed is still the familiar pink color, and it doesn't look tired at all.
"Let's go." Xiao Zhi and Alifa said, and then they clenched the heavy puppet in their hands and swam towards the big octopus.
Sensing something coming out of the city, the big octopus looked in Xiao Zhi's direction. After discovering that the toy he had been longing for came, the big octopus became excited, directly put down the unfinished skirt in his hand, rubbed his tentacles, and suddenly rushed towards Xiao Zhi.
It still hasn't forgotten to hold Lance firmly with a tentacle, it's so convenient with so many hands.
The huge body of the octopus stirred up a violent undercurrent on the bottom of the sea, and the sediment on the bottom of the sea was lifted up by this movement. Like a sudden storm, it swept towards the city.
The little fishes behind Xiao Zhi finally panicked, and they all hurriedly swam towards the city of Kernas, hurry up! It turns out that there is such a scary big monster fish outside, don't come out again...
But Xiao Zhi couldn't retreat, he looked at the menacing big octopus, raised his hand vigorously, and raised the delicate and beautiful pink girl doll in front of him.
A burst of intense water brushed past Xiao Zhi's side, but the tentacles of the big octopus did not land on Xiao Zhi's body.
Xiao Zhi looked up, and found that the big octopus had stopped its forward movement, and now it was bringing its huge head in front of Xiao Zhi, its eyes fixed on the doll, as if it was looking at it carefully.
As he got closer, Xiao Zhi realized that the eyes of this big octopus were pinkish-brown and round in shape. The way he looked at the doll so seriously gave him a somewhat naive look.
Xiao Zhi tried to raise the doll in his hand a little higher, shook it at the big octopus, then pointed to the doll, then pointed to Lance who was dragged behind by the big octopus, signaling that he wanted to exchange.
Xiao Zhi didn't know if the big octopus could understand his body language, so he waited quietly after finishing his movements.
The two sides confronted each other for a while.
Suddenly, the big octopus stretched out its big pink tentacles, gently touched the doll's skirt, and then touched the doll's long pink hair floating in the sea, looking very careful.
A moment later, the big octopus stretched out another tentacle, and this tentacle was holding Lance in a pink dress with "I'd better turn into ashes" written on his face.
The big octopus put Lance in front of him, and its round eyes kept switching between Lance and the puppet, as if they were comparing each other.
Soon, its eyes fell on the puppet motionless, as if it was glued.
Still this looks good!
It casually threw Lance aside, then gently picked up the doll with its two tentacles, and held it in front of itself. With the movement of the big octopus, the hands of the puppet are lifted up with force, as if cooperating with it.
The big octopus felt like its heart was about to melt, it couldn't help but rubbed its huge face against the doll, then switched sides, and rubbed it again. Fortunately, the doll is made of solid stone, and it is still strong in the face of such a big scene.
Xiao Zhi saw that the big octopus stretched out two empty tentacles and swayed in the air. This time the frequency of the octopus was more brisk, and it looked extremely happy. Even the tentacles below were jumping rhythmically. It seems to be dancing.
Judging from this posture, it probably looks down on Lance.
Just when Xiao Zhi was relieved, the big octopus suddenly stretched out its tentacles towards him again.
Xiao Zhi was startled, and subconsciously wanted to back away, but this time the big octopus moved very quickly, its tentacles quickly tapped Xiao Zhi's forehead with very light force, and then quickly retracted.
Xiao Zhi only felt a softness on his forehead, and he stretched out his hand to touch it but did not find any wounds, which felt a bit strange.
At this moment, he heard the system prompt:
"You have gained the favor of Abyss Unodi. Abyss Unodi thinks you are a good person. It and its dependents will no longer actively attack you and allow you to explore in its territory."
At the same time, there is also a hint of +5% exploration speed, as well as a lot of experience. Now Xiao Zhi's exploration speed in this new area is 18%, and there are still 12% left before opening the map to 30%.
Xiao Zhi was overjoyed, he didn't expect such an unexpected harvest.
The big pink octopus named Abyss Unodi happily left with his beloved doll, bouncing wildly on the seabed like a big pink mountain.
Xiao Zhi turned to Lance who was dressed in pink: "Long time no see."
Lance was about to speak, but saw the playfulness in Xiao Zhi's eyes, he finally remembered his current attire: "..."
Alifa made a sneer that was not polite at all: "Googoogoogoo—"
With a fierce face on his face, Lance reached out and pulled off the lovely seaweed skirt on his body. Coupled with his tall body and thick arms, there was a bit of aggrieved feeling in that action.
Provoking Alifa laughed again.
Xiao Zhi patted Lance's arm: "Thank you."
Lance scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "It's because of your hard work."
Alifa secretly pawed Xiao Zhi's shoulder, as if to signal something.
Xiao Zhi understood in seconds, he smiled and asked Lance: "Where is Alifa's baby?"
Lance glanced at Alifa who was staring at him with empty eye sockets, and after a while he reached out and took off his head, which was indeed the head. Then I saw him put his hand from his neck into the armor on his chest, and pulled out a shiny skull from it.
This skull has a round and smooth appearance, exuding a faint green light, which looks like props that appear in ghost movies.
Alifa was immediately happy when he saw the skeleton, and kept yelling "cuckoo" on Xiao Zhi's shoulder, urging him to grab his treasure quickly.
Xiao Zhi stretched out his hand to comfort Alifa, and asked Lance, "Lance, do you want to go back now?"
Lance nodded: "It's uncomfortable in the water."
For the heavy Lance, he can't enjoy the buoyancy of the water at all. Instead, there is a lot of resistance, which makes his movements very slow, and he can't run away when he encounters danger. He couldn't take off the heavy armor, because it was an accompanying item after he became an undead, almost a part of his body.
Xiao Zhi nodded, pretending to take out a black diamond-shaped stone from the storage ring, but in fact he took it from the player's backpack, and handed the stone to Lance: "You and Alifa should go back to Hesse first, this is to return to the trade zone The teleportation stone, the trade zone has not been officially opened, but the teleportation array is already available."
Since the trade zone is to be planned, how can we not set up a teleportation array for the convenience of people coming and going? But after discussing with Milton, Xiao Zhi and Milton decided not to connect to the mainland's teleportation array network, but to use this exclusive teleportation stone, which can control the number of people going to and from the trade zone, and facilitate management and monitoring.
By the way... also cut a wave of leeks to ease the financial pressure of Hesse due to the construction during this period.
Lance took the teleportation stone: "Aren't you going back?"
Xiao Zhi said, "I still want to explore here."
With Lance and Alifa, it is inconvenient for him to open the address book, check information or contact other players. It is better to act alone when exploring the map.
Lance is a kind ghost, he scratched his head and didn't ask much: "Okay."
Xiao Zhi handed Alifa to Hessen, Alifa glared at Lance fiercely: "Gu—"
Lance understood in no time, and returned the skull in his hand to Alifa. Alifa hugged his precious skull, and then obediently sat on Lance's shoulder and did not move.
Lance and Xiao Zhi waved goodbye: "Then we'll leave first."
Alifa also waved: "Gu~"
The next moment, Lance used the teleportation stone to leave. Lance and Alifa were missing, and the surroundings became quiet again, only the slight movements that belonged to the bottom of the sea.
Xiao Zhi turned around and returned to Kernas City, starting a new round of exploration.
·
Knowing from Teague that Knass has the blessing and protection of the High Priests of the Sea Clan, and seeing the effect of this protection with his own eyes, Xiao Zhi relaxed a lot when exploring the city, and his speed also accelerated.
He quickly moved forward in the city, trying to advance the progress of exploration, but this time, he had already traveled half of the city, but he still couldn't increase his exploration speed by even 1%.
"Strange." Xiao Zhi pondered, "Could it have reached the upper limit?"
He flipped through his address book and looked it up on the forum. However, although there are many players who are explorers, not many are willing to share their experience. Some of them discover new maps are NPCs of other races. Many maps were opened hundreds of years ago, so the degree of exploration The message is still vague.
Xiao Zhi can only guess, and there is only so much exploration speed that can be obtained by exploring in Kernas City.
After a while, Xiao Zhi suddenly came to a place with a slightly different architectural style.
How should I put it, this place also belongs to the area close to the center, but the architectural style is somewhat different from the part of the city that Xiao Zhi passed through.
Although the stone materials used in the building are also high-quality, and the layout is also very grand, but in terms of decoration, it seems very perfunctory, just like completing a task. Many places directly choose exactly the same decoration, which is different from previous buildings in the same area. It's hard to see here.
To put it simply, it is - straight male breath.
Xiao Zhi also saw the symbol of the trident on the gates of these buildings, which reminded him of the Yuan clan. Whether he had personally come into contact with it or seen it on the carvings in the city, the trident belonged to the Yuan clan. Iconic weapon.
He sized up the area. Could it be that this direction is the residential area of the Yuan Clan
Teague said that the Yuan clan used to live in Kernas with the Xiyue clan, so it is not surprising that there is an area belonging to them.
Xiao Zhi chose the largest and most gorgeous building in this area, and planned to look at it from here.
The building had tall doors, but the doors are now down, presumably from the impact of the Cataclysm. After entering, there was a hall, the inside was chaotic, the tridents fell on the ground, Xiao Zhi looked at the wall, there were still some fixed brackets on it, probably these tridents were originally fixed on the wall.
He looked at the tridents on the ground, and found that they all had scars of varying degrees on the surface, obviously all of them had gone through actual combat, and some of them were even broken, but they had been meticulously repaired.
Xiao Zhi thought, maybe these belonged to the powerful Yuan clan, and after their death they were placed here for future generations to look up to. Other races on the road also have this tradition, especially the warlike races.
It seems that this is a very important place for the Yuan Clan, Xiao Zhi feels that he has come to the right place.
He continued to move forward. After passing the hall, there was a long corridor. There were many rooms on both sides of the corridor. Xiao Zhi went in and took a look. One part looked like a training room, and the other part was probably used for medical treatment and meetings.
At the end of the corridor was a closed door, still strong even after the cataclysm.
Xiao Zhi tried to push, but found that there was no movement at all, and there was no lock on the gate, only a mysterious magic circle was depicted. Behind the door should be a very important place for the Yuanzu, perhaps hiding the exploration speed or hidden missions, but how to get in
This magic circle should need a special method to open, but Xiao Zhi didn't see any special items along the way, even if he got it, he didn't know how to use it.
Xiao Zhi thought for a while, then tentatively rubbed a small fireball and threw it on the door.
The moment the fireball touched the door, the magic circle on the door flickered, and then the fireball disappeared as if it had been swallowed. At the same time, rapid bells rang throughout the building, as if to warn that someone had invaded an important area.
If it was a thousand years ago, there must be a large number of Yuan clan holding tridents rushing towards Xiao Zhi aggressively at this moment, but now it is a thousand years later, and Xiao Zhi is the only one in the entire Kernas City.
Knowing that the formation on the door was for the alarm, Xiao Zhi was relieved, and he just stood in front of the door where the alarm was ringing non-stop, and started throwing fireballs towards the door continuously.
The more smashed, the more intense the alarm bell rang.
Unfortunately, even if it breaks the bell, no one will come to rescue it.
While Xiao Zhi smashed the door with fireballs in a big way, he also leisurely opened the address book and water forum to see what sand sculptures the players have done recently.
Xiao Zhi watched with relish a few posts about Shangshan Ruoshui and God of War's daily fights, and couldn't help expressing his admiration for the language skills of the brothers and sisters in the history department. People can't help feeling sympathy for everyone in the mecha department.
Finally, the last series of fireballs hit the closed door.
This time the formation flickered for a moment, but the fireball did not completely disappear. The tall and strong gate let out a final whine and fell down.
What appeared in front of Xiao Zhi's eyes was not a room, but a long, downward passage, inside it was pitch black, without any light source, like a wide open mouth.
Xiao Zhi took out the soul lamp again, and entered it cautiously.
There was a dead silence in the passage, and no marine life could be seen. Xiao Zhi walked down the passage, feeling like he had been swimming for a long time. To be honest, being in such a narrow and dark environment all the time made people feel quite depressing.
Although... half of the credit may come from Hessen's special soul lamp. With a dozen of that dark green light, it looks like everything follows the scene of a ghost movie.
But this is our own specialty product, so I can throw it away, let's make do with it.
Finally, the space in front of him finally opened up a bit. Appearing in front of Xiao Zhi's eyes was a small altar, surrounded by some glowing gemstones, so that the place would not be completely dark.
There is a high stone table in the middle of the altar, on which there is an arm-long stone statue. The stone statue exudes a slight white light, which looks a bit holy.
Xiao Zhi observed his surroundings, there were many stone statues on the surrounding walls, all of these stone statues were from the Yuan clan without exception, their ages and appearances were all different, but they all held tridents in their hands, and all of them exuded a The feeling of being brave and good at fighting.
Probably the famous warriors in the history of the Yuan Clan.
After checking the surrounding environment again, Xiao Zhi carefully approached the stone statue.
This is a beautiful woman with a slender fish tail, which is closer to the legendary mermaid. But she was wearing a slim battle armor and holding a sharp trident in her hand, which made her look like a mermaid, but instead exuded a heroic spirit all over her body.
Xiao Zhi glanced at the item description, which read: The statue of Goddess Shifa, the guardian statue of the Yuan Clan, is the supreme treasure of the Yuan Clan.
The supreme treasure? and was left here...
Xiao Zhi vaguely felt that this might have something to do with the Yuan Clan's reluctance to go ashore and their insistence on staying at the bottom of the sea in search of Kernas City, perhaps even the Yuan Clan's changes had something to do with it.
But Teague didn't mention the news related to the guardian icon at all. Whether he didn't know, or whether it was a secret of the Yuan Clan, even the Xiyue Clan who were the Sea Clan, didn't know.
Feeling that this thing might be related to the speed of exploration, Xiao Zhi carefully stretched out his hand, trying to touch the icon.
At this moment, a sense of crisis suddenly rose in Xiao Zhi's heart. At the same time, he also felt a subtle change in the water flow. Knowing that the situation was wrong, Xiao Zhi directly jumped up and left the original standing position.
After dodging, he took the opportunity to look down, and saw a stone statue appear behind where he was originally standing. This stone statue looked very familiar, it was the ones he had seen on the wall before, Xiao Zhi quickly glanced at the direction of the wall, and sure enough a vacancy had appeared.
The stone statue of the Yuan Clan below seemed to move flexibly, not a stiff stone statue at all. He raised his head and glanced at Xiao Zhi, clenched the trident in his hand and rushed towards him.
Xiao Zhi was not polite to him either, he raised his hand and a series of undead flames struck back.
The stone statue of the Yuan Clan's attack speed is very fast, every attack is ruthless and accurate, as if it is a replica of a warrior who has experienced many battles.
Almost every time the trident brushes against Xiao Zhi's vitals, he narrowly avoids it. While Xiao Zhi dodges the opponent's attack like a storm, the movements in his hand are non-stop, and the fireballs are continuously fired, almost connecting the city. fire wire.
But the stone statue knows no pain, nor is it afraid. Even though the surface has been corroded by the fire of the undead, his movements are still fierce.
Moreover, facing the stone statue, the stun fireball is useless, because this thing will not stun at all, and the flame thorns cannot be summoned in the deep sea, so it is difficult for Xiao Zhi to restrict his actions.
The offense and defense of the two sides constantly exchanged, the trident of the stone statue left a hole in Xiao Zhi's body, and Xiao Zhi's undead fire also melted his surface mottled.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhi caught the movement of the stone statue's tail flicking every time it moves, which is a necessary movement for fish to move forward in the water. The fish tail of the stone statue is not light, which makes his speed much slower than that of the Yuan Clan before. Although this effect is not great in a small space, it is slow after all.
Xiao Zhi paid attention to the movement of the stone statue, taking advantage of the moment when he moved next time, the fireball in his hand turned and pointed directly at the stiff tail of the statue.
After the fierce flames passed, the tail of the stone statue made an overwhelmed crisp sound and shattered.
The body of the stone statue also fell down, and Xiao Zhi took the opportunity to throw another series of fireballs towards the opponent. Seeing that the head of the stone statue was about to be crushed, the stone statue suddenly raised its hand in Xiao Zhi's direction, and threw The trident in his hand.
The speed of the trident was very fast, and it stabbed fiercely at Xiao Zhi's head.
"click"
The stone statue finally shattered.
The trident also brushed against Xiao Zhi's cheek, leaving a deep scratch on his face.
Xiao Zhi stretched out his hand to touch his face, and said with emotion: "What a powerful guy."
If it was the original warrior of the Yuan clan that was reproduced in the stone statue, he might have been headshot.
At this time, the subtle water fluctuations came again, Xiao Zhi looked in the direction of the fluctuations: "No way, it's coming again? Do you know that wheel battles are embarrassing?"
The newly finished stone statue was quiet and unaffected by the words.
If you hit you, hit you, don't you care if you lose face
They're not human anyway.
