The deafening crash sounded outside the iron coffin, hoarse, and gradually returned to dead silence.
In the darkness, Qi Leren felt relaxed for the first time. The narrow space gave him an indescribable sense of security. Compared with the endless danger outside, this darkness made people feel at ease.
Until the oxygen was insufficient, Qi Lecai carefully opened the door of the iron coffin with a dagger.
When the first ray of sunlight passed through the gap of the closed iron coffin and came to Qi Leren, the feeling of seeing the light again made him unable to calm down for a long time. The pools of solidified molten iron on the ground and the golden treasure chest floating in the air made him realize what kind of ordeal he had gone through.
With his current fighting power, it is impossible to defeat the witch head-on, and he can only rely on this opportunistic method to win, but from this point of view, this game is not a way for ordinary players to survive, as long as he can find the chance to survive. Not without hope.
They are all born and die like this, I hope this treasure chest can open something good.
Qi Le people stepped forward and opened the treasure chest.
[Card slot+1]
Qi Leren was stunned for a moment, unable to say whether he should be surprised or disappointed, but at present his card slot is indeed not enough. Slots let it continue to consume cooldowns.
After the resurrected witch died again, the courtyard has returned to peace, and the Qi Le people can finally see the place that was shrouded in darkness. It should be a corner on the edge of the courtyard. There are vegetation everywhere, and the witch died. The molten iron that solidified later stood there like a twisted and ridiculous statue, no longer alive.
Um? Something seems to be flashing
From a certain angle, there seems to be something on the solidified molten iron that refracts the sun's light, making it look extraordinarily bright.
Qi Leren stepped forward and touched the crystal with his fingers. It rolled out of the solidified molten iron, fell to the ground, and was picked up by Qi Leren.
The crystal is only the size of a fingernail. It is strange that there are two opposite holes in this glass-like crystal, as if someone had used it as a pendant by threading it.
Does this crystal even melt at high temperature? Qi Leren watched the crystal curiously for a while, and couldn't figure out what substance it was.
It's time to leave here, I don't know what happened to Ning Zhou...
Worrying about the goddess, the Qi Le people walked in the direction they had come from.
Crossing the path between the trees, he returned to the place full of sculptures before. Under the sun, these sculptures had already returned to normal, and there was no trace of the terrifying appearance in the moonlit night. Qi Leren even had the same face as him before. Standing in front of the sculpture for a while, it was no longer his appearance, but a male sculpture quietly reading a book with an indifferent expression.
There was a familiar strange sound above his head, and Qi Leren immediately looked up. Ning Zhou's big black bird found him, and immediately landed on the sculpture and jumped to his arm.
"Where's your master? Is she all right?" Qi Leren asked anxiously.
Just as he was asking, Ning Zhou was already walking towards him from a distance, and there seemed to be a hint of worry in his indifferent expression.
Qi Leren hurriedly reported safety: "I'm fine, that witch is dead, as the hint said, she should have been locked in an iron coffin, filled with molten iron to vaporize, and can control the surrounding vines Attack, but I'm lucky..."
Said, Qi Leren smiled at Ning Zhou particularly brightly, and wanted to show his reliability in front of his favorite goddess, but unfortunately the bruises and abrasions all over his body seemed unconvincing.
Ning Zhou frowned slightly, and some incomprehensible emotions flashed in his blue eyes. Qi Leren was talking to her with brows and brows, and she was touched by surprise, and she stayed stunned. mouth. The goddess seems to especially like to touch his head? Does this mean consolation
There seemed to be a different aura floating in the air. Qi Leren opened his mouth, wondering if he should continue to brag, so he simply asked about Ning Zhou's situation: "What about you? After I climbed the tree, I found out that you were gone. Well, what happened to you later? Did you encounter any danger?"
Ning Zhou's eyes drifted to one side, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Qi Leren was in a hurry, and without waiting for him to ask, the big black bird spit out a few words: "She's lost."
"..." Qi Le people looked at Ning Zhou blankly, what, the goddess is actually a lunatic? The goddess also blushed, she turned around, the goddess must be shy! My goddess can't be this cute!
Qi Leren, who was so cute that he fell to the ground, saw that Ning Zhou had walked more than ten meters, and then chased after him. Almost couldn't find the right way at all, trying to excuse the goddess for getting lost, but the goddess didn't seem to appreciate it.
"What's wrong?" Qi Leren asked strangely.
Ning Zhou took out a box of ointment from the package and handed it to him, but Qi Leren quickly declined: "You gave it to me last time, and I don't feel any pain now."
Seeing that Ning Zhou was still looking at him with disapproval, Qi Leren had to take out the ointment to apply a little to the scratches and bruises. When he took off his coat to reveal his arms and collarbone, Ning Zhou turned around neatly. She turned around, but it was her bird, shaking her head at him, staring at him carelessly.
Qi Le people have become accustomed to the shyness of the goddess, and while applying medicine to themselves, they wonder in their hearts what kind of environment the goddess lived in before, which is really cute.
After the medicine was applied, the two walked to the hall in the center of the underground palace. The journey was more silent than when they came. Qi Leren secretly looked at Ning Zhou's profile, inexplicably felt that she seemed to be in a bad mood. It's a bit related, but I don't know what's going on.
Could it be that the goddess was unhappy because she didn't meet the BOSS when she got lost all the way
But it is strange to say that after entering the courtyard under the moonlight from the courtyard under the sun, he walked around the courtyard for a while without seeing Ning Zhou. Could it be that they were separated into different dimensions at that time? Until one of them finds the witch and destroys her, can both return to the courtyard in the sun
Just like the time in the hospital's goldfish tank, he was also separated from Dr. Lu and the others, and even Su He in the end. This kind of power that unknowingly divides people into different parallel worlds is really terrifying.
There were light footsteps in front of him, Ning Zhou stopped and stopped Qi Leren, a figure flashed in the corner in front, saw the two of them stunned for a moment, and asked in a panic, "You met that witch. Yet?"
It was the NPC who came in with Xie Wanwan. When she was in the hall, she kept silent and only had some contact with Sister Alyssa. She seemed to be wary of others. Qi Leren didn't even know her name. However, he heard Elsa talk about a girl from the same village named Isabel, who was also sent to participate in the sacrifice this time. She also has a sister who was sent to participate in the sacrifice three years ago. Is it the NPC in front of me
"Yeah." Qi Leren nodded. If the NPC in front of him was the Isabelle in Elsa's mouth, then he should be able to guess her intention.
She looked more nervous, and asked with a little anxiety: "Then do you see what she looks like? Does she look a bit like me?"
really…
Qi Leren sighed: "You are Isabelle, right? I heard Elsa talk about you. The witch I met has lost her appearance, so I don't know if she is the one you are looking for."
"She... what has she become?" The girl looked at him begging and asked.
Qi Leren hesitated. He hesitated to tell her everything he saw. If that witch is really her sister, then the truth is too cruel. Oh yes, there is that crystal.
Qi Leren found the crystal he picked up from the package and put it in the palm of his hand: "I found this, is it your sister's thing?"
Isabelle snatched the crystal, trembling and weeping: "It's really her... really... no... no..."
She broke down and burst into tears.
Qi Leren looked at Ning Zhou at a loss, but found that she was more uneasy than him, from her standing posture to her expression was stiff, with a look of bewilderment. It seems that the introverted goddess can't count on her to comfort a sister who has lost a loved one. Qi Leren had to go up on her own and comforted her for a while, and while comforting, she was a little flustered. Killed it once again... Although she can't be considered a living person after being resurrected.
"I just knew... Three years ago I had a dream that she was locked in a dark place and then burned to death... When I woke up, I found that I had lost a memory..." After crying, Isabel's His mood seemed to have stabilized a little, but his expression was still dull, and he talked to Qi Leren about what happened three years ago.
"Losing your memory?" Qi Leren keenly felt that he seemed to have triggered some special plot, and quickly repeated the question.
"Yes, because I have the habit of keeping a diary, but when I woke up that day, I found that I couldn't remember the things in the diary." Isabel stared blankly at the crystal pendant in her hand and said, "It is written in the diary that my sister was sent to On the day I left, I was very worried about her and decided to follow her secretly, but when I woke up, I only remembered that I had that nightmare... Did I follow her secretly that day, did I see her for the last time... I don't remember anything..."
Following Isabel's statement, the system suddenly jumped out:
[Player Qi Leren triggers the hidden mission: Dusty Past. Help Isabel retrieve her lost memories before the Sacrifice the Witch quest is complete. If the mission is successful, the sacrifice of the witch will be rewarded after the mission is completed, and there will be no penalty for failure.]
Qi Leren immediately looked at Ning Zhou, and she happened to be looking at him. Qi Leren immediately understood that it seemed that both of them had received this task.
A hidden quest that is not a sideline.
