The two of them had a close and intimate time. Who could resist a little idiot
I don't know if it's because Jian Qingrong's real body is here, the mimic octopus's big head is almost translucent, and you can't see much of the brain. But Wen Shi saw a few black spots that looked like tadpoles. Could it be... condensed
Apart from Jian Qingrong himself, Wen Shi was unable to fully understand Jian Qingrong's physical condition.
However, he was very familiar with Jian Qingrong's eyes that concealed murderous intent.
The only remaining eye was as gloomy as the weather today, and the slender and powerful joints were bent back and forth. Wen Shi reasonably suspected that Jian Qingrong wanted to squeeze the little octopus into a juicy octopus. He used his eyes to hint the little fool to restrain himself, but the little octopus went even further and rubbed all over, as if it was having a spa, and Wen Shi's palm was its sunny beach.
Just as Wen Shi was thinking about how to save the little octopus, Yaerlin and Ji Yuanzhi came in one after another.
Ji Yuanzhi had already chosen the target to be replaced by the art of substitution. He had previously hidden in the dark and recorded that group's rehearsal program, intending to knock out the hidden target after learning it, and then take his place to go to the concert that was destined to be troubled.
Seeing the mimic octopus tumbling in Wen Shi’s palm, he straightened the frame: “Scarecrow?”
"..." Wen Shi was really shocked by his logical connection ability.
Yarlin didn't pay much attention to the little monster. He looked at the mimic octopus in the same way as the old lady, as if he was looking at a little idiot.
Whichever way you look at it, it's pretty stupid.
Wen Shi stuffed the octopus into his pocket. Just as he said that there was no need to search the floors below the third floor of the exhibition hall, there was a knock on the door.
The door was not locked to begin with, and monsters would not knock politely in broad daylight, so Wen Shi said, "Come in."
The person who came in turned out to be a fat man.
He always looked humble: "Student Aaron, Teacher Ruan wants us to come over."
Wen Shi felt a little uncomfortable when the fat man suddenly called out the character's name, and he looked at him suspiciously.
The fat guy smiled and said, "I am also a class representative now."
After Song Yan disappeared, Teacher Ruan selected another class representative to replace him. The fat guy seemed to have even more trust from Teacher Ruan.
Wen Shi lied with his eyes open: "My stomach hurts a bit, I'll be there later."
The fat guy was only responsible for delivering the message: "Okay, hurry up, we'll go together later. I live in dormitory 404, remember to call me when you come down."
After saying that, he left neatly.
After the door closed, Wen Shi's polite smile disappeared, and he wondered why Teacher Ruan had called him over. The mermaid he met last night must have told Teacher Ruan about the fox fairy's ghost story, and the possibility of the latter believing it was estimated to be zero.
Fortunately, since he has not violated any rules, Teacher Ruan is unlikely to kill him simply and brutally. At most, he will give him the next difficult task.
Already knowing the location of part of the Mermaid King's torso, he really didn't want to waste time dealing with Teacher Ruan.
Wen Shi rubbed his brows and sighed that there were too many things to accomplish.
Seeing that he seemed to have a headache, Yaerlin suddenly used his mental power to cover the dormitory to block the possibility of eavesdropping by people outside.
The moment the air began to fluctuate, Wen Shi subconsciously looked at Yaerlin, as if he had guessed what the other party wanted to say, and said with a wry smile: "Brother, the more important the matter, the more I have to do it myself."
The will of the game is everywhere, and he doesn't want to be targeted for taking shortcuts.
"Combat requires strategic deployment." Yaerlin looked at him with a hint of doting: "Don't take it too seriously."
Wen Shi always listened to advice, so he immediately pulled a stool and sat in front of him to listen.
"Which part of the Mermaid King's torso is the most difficult to deal with?" asked Yarlin.
Wen Shi thought for a moment and said, "Head."
The most important parts of any living creature are the brain and the heart, but the mermaid king has no heart.
"Yes, the principal took away the heart, and that part of the torso is no longer important to him. So the place he went to after the explosion last night must be the place where the Mermaid King's head is sealed."
Yaerlin did not participate in the players' daily discussions, but he did not miss a single piece of information, including the previous conversation between Wen Shi and Jian Qingrong when he returned to the dormitory. He heard it clearly, but he just politely stood at the door and waited for them to finish talking before coming in.
"It should be the exhibition hall." Ji Yuanzhi interjected.
When interpreting the information this morning, the information of the exhibition hall and dormitory No. 34 was very dark in color, but the information of the exhibition hall was a little deeper, almost like thick black water that could not be dissolved, representing the information that the other party cared about the most.
Yaerlin said slowly: "When you wake up, your brain will definitely wake up first. Leave the most difficult part of the exhibition hall to me."
Wen Shi mentioned devouring the torso in the chat, and it was obvious that he wanted to choose to kill the Mermaid King.
After Yaerlin takes over the Mermaid King's head, the difficulty of the dungeon will be greatly reduced.
"There are four parts to a mermaid's torso, and each part is vital. It's not considered inaction if you pick a different one."
Wen Shi hesitated for a moment. It made sense from this perspective, but he didn't know how the game would judge it.
Yaerlin smiled: "Which part are you going to deal with?"
Wen Shi subconsciously pointed at Jian Qingrong: "Help him devour the contaminated torso first."
Jian Qingrong quickly glanced at Wen Shi and was sure that his position in the other's heart was higher than that of the silly octopus.
"So you are just participating, and you need to rely on his devouring ability."
Wen Shi nodded. This was how playing games was. The important thing was participation. However, he was sure that Jian Qingrong's devouring process would not be smooth, and he would also have to put in a lot of effort.
Yaerlin probably had an understanding of the criteria for judgment: "Don't worry, I am also borrowing strength, and the role I play is similar to yours."
He looked at Ji Yuanzhi and said, "Take that pretty idiot and find a way to find the other two locations."
Pretty idiot
Ji Yuanzhi reacted and realized that he was talking about Louis.
Speaking of Louis, Wen Shi said, "We have to ask Louis to find out about the exhibition hall, especially the fourth and fifth floors, to see if there are any horror legends and help determine the location of the head."
Ji Yuanzhi: “…”
He has only brought Louis back as a partner for less than a day, and you two brothers are almost stealing him away.
Wen Shi checked the time and said, "I'll go to Teacher Ruan first to see what he's going to do."
Before leaving, Yaerlin reminded him, "The first explosion yesterday was caused by your mentor."
Wen Shi nodded when he heard this and pushed the door open to go out.
Before leaving, he temporarily returned the little octopus to Jian Qingrong. As they were both marine creatures, the scent of the little octopus might be captured by Teacher Ruan.
Downstairs, dormitory 404.
There are only two people left in the dormitory where the fat guy lives, including him. In the game, numbers containing four and thirteen are not good numbers, so this dormitory number is quite unlucky.
"Here I come!" He glanced at Wen and nimbly rolled out of bed.
The two of them didn't communicate much on the way. Teacher Ruan was a person who knew a lot about time, so they quickened their pace to get there.
When they arrived outside the office, the fat man walked half a step ahead of Wen Shi into the office, but Teacher Ruan's eyes fell on Wen Shi who came in later. Unfortunately, that look was not very kind.
Teacher Ruan did not mention the fox fairy, but instead talked about the class representative's role: "The class representative is the one I trust the most among all the students."
Wen Shi: “…”
Just blow it.
But the fat guy must have eaten mermaid meat before, and he didn't do anything weird, so Teacher Ruan still had some trust in the fat guy.
"I have something very important to tell you..." Teacher Ruan said sincerely.
Before he could finish his words, the game prompt sounded.
"You finally discovered the secret of Pearl Academy and knew that the concert could turn into a large slaughterhouse."
"Humans kill mermen, and mermen also eat humans and mate. You don't know how to settle this bad debt. You just want to survive. Please choose a camp based on your personal judgment."
"Camp 1). Mermaid camp. You need to help the mermaids and kill the principal."
"Camp 2). The principal's camp. You need to help the principal kill the mermaid king."
Teacher Ruan continued to speak: "You all claimed to be the most loyal believers of the Mermaid King. Now someone is desecrating his body. Are you willing to help find and execute this sinner?"
This kind of task can only be triggered when a certain amount of copy information is collected. What surprised Wen Shi was that this meant that the fat man also knew the sealed place of the Mermaid King's torso.
No matter how powerful Wen Shi was, he couldn't be omniscient. Naturally, he didn't know that President Liujie cooperated with Fatty last night, divided the work and followed the NPCs, and finally shared the information.
Sensing his doubts, the fat man smiled but said nothing.
"I do." Wen Shi didn't hesitate for a second.
The fat man's smile suddenly froze. Normally, when faced with a situation like choosing a camp, he would at least hesitate for a few seconds.
Wen Shi was very open-minded. It didn't matter which one he chose. He would kill both NPCs anyway. It would be the same end result.
"Teacher, please hand it over to us. We must not tolerate such shameless people. My spirit will always be with the king!" Wen Shi said with a pious look on his face.
Apart from the fact that the camp itself had little impact on him, Wen Shi intuitively felt that he was not qualified to refuse like the fat man.
This is very much like a trap dug by the game.
The one who blasphemed the mermaid king's torso in Teacher Ruan's mouth must be Jian Qingrong. Later, a side quest will be generated. Choosing the mermaid camp is equivalent to sacrificing Jian Qingrong to the heaven. From this perspective, I will most likely refuse. Once that happens, coupled with the fox fairy incident last night, he will become the person that Teacher Ruan must kill, and it will be a bit difficult for him to leave this office today.
As for the mission itself, Wen Shi was not worried. If it was a side quest that had to be completed, he would just buy a [King Card Box] at a high price and complete it.
If it is a special task that cannot be refreshed, then you can only take the risk and find a way to kill the person who asked the question.
Teacher Ruan did not expect Wen Shi to agree so readily.
This student always surprises.
The speed of his answer made Teacher Ruan look at the fat man with dissatisfaction and asked, "What about you?"
"I... certainly do."
I am totally unwilling in my heart!
The fat man originally wanted to choose the principal. He already knew some locations on the mermaid king's torso. Of course, it would be easier to kill the fish, but there happened to be a control group. If he refused now, he didn't know what consequences would be caused.
Wen Shi heard the fat man grinding his teeth.
“You did a good job.” The fat man mouthed.
It was originally a multiple-choice question. Everyone could have gotten away with it by just saying "go back and think about it", but this person turned it into a single-choice question.
Teacher Ruan's expression finally returned to its usual gentleness.
"Starting tonight, you will wait near Dormitory Building No. 34. If the blasphemer appears again, kill him at all costs."
[Side Quest: Kill the Blasphemer
Mission content: Go to dormitory building No. 34 after sunset and wait until the target is eliminated.]
Logically speaking, as long as Jian Qingrong didn't go, he wouldn't be caught, but the mission couldn't be that simple.
Teacher Ruan must have just found out about this, otherwise the little octopus would have been gone long ago. That leaves only one possibility: after the explosion last night, another mermaid went to check the place where the Mermaid King was sealed and made an unexpected discovery.
Wen Shi suspected that these mermaids did not know the sealed locations of all the trunks, but only knew the location of the trunk where the heart was dug out. Otherwise, a mermaid could not go to four places, and Teacher Ruan would also take action last night.
If this is the case, the player who was responsible for tracking him and causing the subsequent explosion would have made some discoveries, and Ji Yuanzhi would not have only deciphered two locations.
Wen Shi raised his eyebrows. Things were getting interesting. The Mermaid King did not completely trust his people, otherwise he could at least tell them where the seal on his head was.
After saying a few empty words to promise to complete the task, Wen Shi and the fat man left the office.
The fat man smiled but said in a sinister tone: "You are a very responsible class representative."
Just stand in line without thinking.
However, when he looked at Wen, he only saw a cold expression on the other's face.
"Until the target is eliminated." Wen Shi repeated the mission in a low voice.
According to his previous inference, the other mermaid might still be near dormitory building No. 34.
If they don't wait there tonight, the mermaids will regard it as a betrayal. If they go there and Jian Qingrong doesn't show up, they will have to wait there day after day and will have nothing to do in the future.
This is the most vicious part of this mission.
"Do you want to use the [King Card Box] to complete the task?" the fat man suddenly asked.
The doubt in his eyes was covered by his natural tone. Pei Wenwei's reaction to a side quest seemed a little too intense. This intensity was in contrast to the other party's initiative to find him to form a debt relationship. Such a person should not show that kind of expression because of a mission.
Wen Shi shook his head: "No need."
Since the game must be played this way, it would be a shame not to show it a reverse clearance.
