The bottom of the lake was pitch black, but there were no living creatures. Apparently, those who dared to get close were eaten by Hechimujia who was ruthless in order to protect the eggs. Although Sheyan and Reef had no experience in diving underwater, Sister Wuge could.
Directly enter the 3D mode of detecting plants, and under her leadership, twist and turn in the labyrinth-like underground water veins, and then swim back into the lake where the orcs called "Karndum" from whence they came.
At this time, Sheyan and Liao Shi realized that the temperature of the lake water had dropped significantly. Apparently, the Balrog's injury triggered a chain reaction. It began to frantically absorb geothermal energy to heal its injuries, which naturally caused the temperature at the bottom of the lake to drop rapidly. Those weird
The strange fish also began to wander over cautiously and greedily, and some of the hungry ones even began to attack Fang Senyan.
However, because of Sister Wuge, those giant brachiopod earthworms that were the most threatening were just swimming around curiously, which saved Sheyan and the others from too much trouble.
Obviously, the previous octopus monster Hechimugar had fought with the Balrog more than once, so a small amount of its previous eggs should have been washed into the lake along the flood, and in the process of decay, it affected and polluted the creatures in the lake.
, causing them to mutate into what they are now, and the bodies of these mutated creatures have also been "contaminated" by the Hechimga gene, so the big octopuses regard them as "one of their own" and will not hunt them, so they
The properties remain high.
Fortunately, although the strength of Sheyan and Liao Shi had declined at this time, there was an extra Dawn Elf to escort them. Sister Wuge did not harm them either. With every move she made, there were a large number of green thread algae growing around them.
It flows like hair. Once a strange fish approaches, a ball of green thread algae will separate to block their mouths, forcing these guys to flee in panic.
After the three people landed, they were of course shocked by the plague land that was burned to ashes. Even Sheyan didn't expect that Saruman would resort to such a vicious method in order to safely transition to this ghost place.
Housebreaking plan.
According to Fang Senyan's speculation, the water veins below the Plague Land are probably connected to a long-term nest of Hechimugar. The body fluids secreted by this giant octopus also have a huge hallucinogenic effect. After mixed in the water,
The roots of the pine trees growing here are sucked up continuously like a pump and soaked into the soil, thus causing people to enter fatal hallucinations when the sun is shining.
The group of people continued to move forward and saw the scene of the previous avalanche. They couldn't help but sigh. They felt like they were in another world. Because the orc tribe that came out in large numbers had trampled a broad road in the snow valley, so the three of them didn't have it.
There was a danger of leaving traces and being discovered. After walking about ten kilometers ahead, you could see the orc camp that looked like a giant white beehive appearing in front of everyone.
At this time, the three of them have two choices. One is to turn left, which is to return to the orc camp, the other is to turn right, which is naturally to leave this damn ghost place. After thinking about it, Fang Sheyan said seriously:
"Wuge, do you really have the ability to survive at a critical moment?"
Wu Ge nodded seriously. Sheyan handed the animal skin package on his shoulder to the reef, which contained the plundered eggs of Hechimujia, and then looked at him and said:
"It seems it's time for us to break up here. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This orc camp is unprecedentedly empty. I estimate that most of the people inside have been taken away by Saruman's clone. Because Saruman
The clone's plan is huge this time, so he will definitely use the last bit of power in his hands - even the old, weak, sick and disabled can be used as cannon fodder. So I think it is very possible.
Gained great benefits.”
Jiao Shi nodded and said:
"Understood, I am the remaining insurance, right?"
"Yes, you have the blessing of the Dawn Elf on you, and the good energy is integrated with nature, so as long as you enter a place with lush vegetation, the chance of encountering danger is greatly reduced. At this time, there is still time before the blessing of the Dawn Elf fades.
It's morning." Fang Senyan said calmly:
"Your existence is my trump card to take risks boldly."
Jiao Shi also smiled. In fact, he has always been a very serious person, but now a smile appeared on his face, and he also had a different kind of calmness and cheerfulness:
"Take care, sailor, but I still have a few concerns."
Fang Sheyan said seriously:
"You speak."
Jiao Shi thought for a while and said:
"This Saruman is just a clone, so it is conceivable that there must be very few collections in the Mage Tower. Moreover, he is going to fight a powerful enemy this time, so he must bring all the recovery, combat props, and even equipment he can bring.
Bring them all. This will inevitably lead to a further decrease in the chance of catching good things."
"In the end, because of those damn rules, what we can take out is restricted. After three full weakenings, there are very few benefits that can be gained. So the main purpose of your adventure is to let go
I’m finishing up my sixth-level ability.”
Sheyan nodded and said:
"Well, that's what I think too. But I still think the risk is worth taking."
Jiao Shi thought for a while and said:
"Okay, then, take care."
Sheyan had to hurry up, because he didn't know when Saruman's clone would come back, so he turned his back and strode towards the orc camp, with a dangling cowhide bag hanging around his waist, and he raised his hand to deal with it.
He waved against the rocks.
And just when the two of them separated, a ruthless voice sounded again from the nightmare mark:
"Scanning: Execution team mission No. 1018: Survival has once again reached a time-related critical point!"
"Congratulations: No. 1018, you performed the team mission: survival has reached the time-related critical point in the final stage!"
"Warning: The difficulty of your stay in this world will increase again. From now on, all attribute bonuses you obtained in the nightmare space will disappear, and your physical fitness will be reduced to the level of normal people when you first entered the space.
!!”
"Tip: You have reached the final stage of Team Mission: Survival. You can stay in this space for up to 8 hours. At that time, you will reach the highest standard of Team Mission: Survival Rating LVmax, and you will be forcibly teleported back to the Nightmare Space.
.If you can achieve this goal, you will receive the relevant milestones and the highest reward for this task!"
Although Sheyan was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but burst into ecstasy. In addition, there was another thing that he had already deduced, but he still had to ask out of caution at this time:
"If I choose to return to space at this time, and the companion who entered this world with me stays until the end, how will the mission reward be calculated?"
"Looking for answers..."
"Backing up..."
"Answering..."
"You chose to enter this world together, and at the same time started to establish a team mission: survival. Therefore, as long as anyone survives to the end, the mission completion evaluation will only count the best results among the members participating in the mission."
After receiving this answer, Sheyan felt relieved and returned to the orc city with confidence and boldness. However, the sudden return to an ordinary person's physique really made him quite uncomfortable. Sheyan couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
, in this case, the time spent on the road alone will be at least five minutes longer!
And at this critical moment when we are about to sneak into Saruman's mage tower and cause trouble, five minutes may very well mean success or failure, life or death!!
During this period, Sheyan checked his own attributes and found that all of them returned to the personal data when he first entered the space. All abilities, including active/passive, showed the word "sealed", but the only exception was,
But it is his talent "tenacity"!
Although tenacity has also not taken effect, the three words displayed above are "Not Awakened!" This display method is no different from when viewing talents in the real world!
Although the orc city seemed completely dead, everything still seemed in order. Apparently Saruman's clone had been preparing for this expedition for quite some time.
Walking in this town that was full of stinking, dirty, but extremely durable, and reading the chaotic and noisy memories, Sheyan even had a vague fear of being in a ghost town.
The mage tower is just ahead.
Because strictly speaking, this mage tower is actually a copycat version of Scrawled. Only the top floor is built according to the most formal mage tower using precious materials such as mithril and krypton gold. Therefore, when entering the first four floors,
, there is no need to worry about the magic mechanism at all.
And with the wisdom of half-orcs/strong orcs, whose brains are almost filled with muscles and tendons, it is absolutely not difficult to identify those rough and powerful ordinary mechanisms. What's more, Fang Sheyan had to feel the environment inside when transporting materials.
I have to say that I am very familiar with it, but I still know about it.
"Let's go this way." After entering the mage tower, Fang Senyan, although he is an ordinary person, does not have strong and flexible hands, so he leads the way. "Be careful with this staircase. Do you see it? Yes, that's right.
If you step on the black wooden board in the middle, a huge boulder will roll down from it."
Wu Ge walked silently behind Sheyan, and suddenly looked at him with sadness in her clear and flawless eyes:
"I can feel that you are getting weaker and weaker."
