Isabelle's mission is obviously more difficult than Ellie's mission to find her sister. Judging from the system's prompts, this is likely to be a hidden plot related to the main plot of Sacrifice the Witch, and he even thinks that it may be necessary to play the true ending. Conditions, there must be key elements related to this mission in Isabelle's lost memory, and they have to find a way to get her back to that memory.
Qi Leren thought about it and didn't know how to start, so they simply discussed with Ning Zhou to take Isabel back to the palace first. Ning Zhou had no opinion, so the three quickly returned to the hall.
As soon as they entered the hall, Qi Leren saw Ellie and Aisha looking at the stone wall in anxiety, Lu Youxin, Xie Wanwan and Ye Xia were not there.
"What's wrong?" Qi Leren stepped forward and asked.
Elsa pointed to the stone wall and said, "A new text suddenly appeared on the stone wall just now..."
Qi Leren took a closer look. Originally, there were only two lines of text on the stone wall. One line was at the top and center, telling them that the living witches had gathered and the dead witches were about to wake up. Then, below this line of text, near the left side is the reminder of the first witch, that is, a witch candidate that Qi Le people worked so hard to kill. At this time, the right and the bottom of this line of text have A new line of text.
The sentence on the right is like a clue to the puzzle: [Kill us all, and the altar will appear.]
The sentence below is similar to the prompt of the previous witch candidate: [I have awakened, wandering around, and those who kill me will gain my wealth.]
Qi Leren thought for a while and felt that he understood the routine of this task.
Every time a witch is killed, a hint about the new witch will appear below the previous hint, and a decryption hint related to completing the mission will also appear. When they kill all seven witches, there will be a total of seven clues. These seven clues may be the location of the final altar or the method of sacrifice.
"The second witch is not the same as the last one. She should be a random walk boss." Qi Leren said.
Ning Zhou nodded.
Because of the skill cooling, Qi Leren didn't want to go out to take risks now, so he asked Ning Zhou, Ning Zhou looked at his injuries and shook his head.
"Let's go after my skills have cooled down. It's enough for another half an hour." Qi Leren leaned close to Ning Zhou's ear and whispered, his warm breath sprayed on his ear, and Ning Zhou jumped out twice. meters away.
Qi Leren looked at the goddess who was blushing and pretended to be cold, and felt that her cuteness had been broken. It was really fun to tease the goddess!
Do this next time! He secretly said to himself.
"Two more sentences appeared!" Isabel's exclamation made Qi Leren sober up and hurried up to check.
After the second witch's prompt, the corresponding puzzle sentence appeared again. Someone should have killed the second witch. Qi Leren looked at it seriously.
[We used to serve the old demon king, but now, what we serve is the demon king who is in charge of deception.]
Qi Leren suddenly remembered that on the airship heading to the Land of Twilight, it seemed that two players had signed a demon contract with the Demon King of Deception, which could rob others of their survival days. Power, killing and deceit, in the setting of Nightmare Games, these three demon kings replaced the old one and ruled the demon race. It turns out that the witch who finally won in this mission is the one who serves the Demon King of Deception? Could it be that the player who completes the final sacrifice in this quest will be transferred to the demon camp
Because he couldn't understand for a while, Qi Leren read out the hint of the third witch in a soft voice.
[Are you willing to sacrifice, have you ever been betrayed, have you seen the distortion and beauty of love sprouting in despair? The fire of unrequited love has been burning to the end of my life.]
The blood-colored words were engraved on the stone wall, flowing with a dark red luster. The twisted love seemed to penetrate the words and penetrated into people's hearts. Qi Leren suddenly remembered the angry words of the witch who was watered with molten iron in the courtyard. She said, "I didn't hurt her... She deceived you..."
She... cheated
At that time, the situation was too tense, and Qi Leren didn't take the witch's crazy words to heart, but in retrospect, why was she kept alive in a coffin and drowned in molten iron? Who is this cruel torture? Executed, and why? When Qi Leren was on this task, it was difficult for him to regard these details as ordinary coincidences, and he believed that there must be a reason for it.
What happened in this underground palace the last time a witch was sacrificed? What does this have to do with Isabelle's lost memory? Amidst the confusion, Qi Leren could never find a clue.
There were footsteps outside the hall, everyone on the stone steps looked towards the gate, and Lu Youxin walked towards them expressionlessly, the originally neat sacrificial clothes were covered in blood, which looked shocking.
Lu Youxin, whose killing intent was still alive, looked a different kind of coldness, like her right hand soaked in blood water kept dripping blood, and she couldn't tell if it was her own for a while.
"Don't worry." When Lu Youxin saw several NPCs retreating back and forth, looking horrified, she laughed brightly, "It's not my blood, it's a piece of dead flesh that has been rotten for three years, in fact, it looks pretty good, I don't even have Give it a shot while it's hot, it must be because you accidentally pinched it too much."
As she said that, she walked slowly to the stone wall, stroked the second witch's prompt with her half-dried blood-stained hand, and murmured: "Whether you are willing to sacrifice, you can I have been betrayed, have you ever seen the distortion and beauty of love when it sprouted in despair? The fire of unrequited love has been burning until the end of my life... This feeling of despair is so beautiful."
Lu Youxin looked at the words on the stone wall and smiled like she was enchanted, until... She was pecked by the big black bird.
"Oh, you are quite a fierce bird!" Lu Youxin cried out in pain while clutching the pecked back of his head, angrily.
Ning Zhou whistled and called the bird back. After such an interruption, the atmosphere was much better, and the sense of oppression that was tugging at the heart also dissipated. Qi Leren thought about it for a while, but asked, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, I'm doing fine. I saw two beauties fighting on the road. I did a good deed every day. Tsk tsk, I'm really kind-hearted." Lu Youxin boasted shamelessly, and looked up and down on Qi Le and Ning Zhou. After a while, his expression was a little subtle, "Mind if I ask, how did you meet?"
Oops, Lu Youxin knew he was a man! If this kind of thing is not said by oneself but is exposed by others, it is easy to be regarded by the goddess as having ulterior motives! He also wants to use the convenience of being a girl to be friends with the goddess first, and then give the goddess a surprise when the copy is released! With the foundation of sharing weal and woe, the goddess should accept him better at that time! Even if he can't be a couple, he can be a good spare tire. He will work hard to become a spare tire with self-cultivation!
The nervous Qi Leren naturally didn't notice Ning Zhou's strangeness. He was busy giving Lu Youxin a wink, and wished he could send his inner cry to Lu Youxin's mind: Big, please, don't expose me!
"Cough, what we saw in the woods, Ning Zhou saved me a few times..." Although the Qi Le people actually heard Chen Baiqi talk about Ning Zhou when he was in the Land of Twilight, but Chen Baiqi didn't tell me at that time. His name, Ning Zhou, only said that she was a cold beauty. This description is really accurate. She is really cold and beautiful, goddess!
Lu Youxin's eyelids twitched wildly, she didn't need to look to know that Ning Zhou was staring at her with murderous eyes, and told her to shut her mouth and move away. I thought that Ning Zhou didn't want to expose his gender at this time. From then on, he was regarded as a guy with bad intentions by his favorite cute girl. Now the mission environment is so dangerous, it would be bad if Qi Leren had a grudge against him, and he is still equipped with [ Shut the mouth] This skill card, once the energy accumulated in the opening has to start from the beginning, it is better to wait for the task to end and then find a way to explain it slowly.
However, Lu Youxin, who has already seen through everything, can only laugh at the two who firmly believe that they are straight men but Lily in the eyes of others are actually cheating: "You told me to shut up, then it's okay. Don't blame me.
PS: "You are looking for a dead end." BY Lu Youxin is huge.
PPS: The witch's hints and clues made me dizzy. The text is as follows:
[The living witches are gathered together, and the dead witches are ready to go.]
1. Sleeping in rusted iron, fire burns my body, blood nourishes the vegetation of hell, whoever awakens me will be hanged.
- Hint after killing the witch: kill us all and the altar will appear.
2. I have awakened, wandering around, and whoever kills me will gain my wealth.
—We used to serve the old Demon Lord, but now, we serve the Demon Lord who is in charge of deception.
3. Are you willing to sacrifice, have you ever encountered betrayal, have you seen the distortion and beauty of love sprouting in despair? The fire of unrequited love has been burning to the end of my life.
