At the same time.

Li Er Pang, Ning you and Xiao chu'er formed a team and painted the magic objects in the new level training area.

We have been together for so long. Although we don't like each other, the team configuration is very reasonable.

With Li Er Pang's body getting bigger and bigger, his defense is terrible. He forms a "fetter" with the divine sword Su Su behind him. Li Er Pang is fat alone, carrying a big shield in front of the other two, whining and mocking to attract the attention of the demon.

At the same level, the demon's attack is equivalent to tickling for him.

One tank, two DPS, brush monster, very efficient.

Although Luo Miya doesn't know the way, she can recognize it here. There is a little impression there. Unexpectedly, they really found the "white beach" that Luo Miya said.

But when they arrived at the "beautiful" white beach mentioned by Romea, they were stunned.

As far as I can see, it is desolate.

In the vast white fine sand, there is a pit about the size of moonlight village.

The pit is also covered with fine sand.

Not to mention people, not even a demon.

In the dry and hot climate, the rising heat makes the distant scenery slightly distorted, resulting in the phenomenon of light refraction.

"How?"

In the water bottle, Luo Miya looked at the "white beach" which was very different from her memory, but she was also staring at the fish.

"Romea remembers that there are beautiful white shells everywhere on the white beach."

"There is a clear lake here."

"The lake is full of red and white corals."

Mini Romea lowered her head in the water bottle and whispered in a sad voice: "but why did they all disappear? Where Kenai listened to Romea singing..."

Ning you listened silently and suddenly felt something wrong.

"Wait, you said there were many corals here?"

Xiao Chuer noticed Ning you's strange tone: "is there anything wrong?"

"It's very wrong," Ning you frowned and said in a low voice. "Coral is theoretically formed by the growth and death of an aquatic creature called 'coral insect'. Don't forget that the 'world view' of the world is surrounded by a sea of clouds."

"Cloud sea", though it also carries a word "sea", is essentially a cloud. You always say that game settings need not be studied deeply, but a successful game is always self consistent, and it will cause many bars to be tuckled. A successful game will make complaints about the world. Even fantasy games will try to make the world view logically. I have to go. "

Xiao Chuer understood Ning you's words. Liu Mei frowned slightly and said softly, "what do you mean..."

Ning you sighed: "either the game designer has given up his intention to speak logic with the player. Or..."

"It used to be a sea! At least it's a lake."

“……”

……

Finally, the three were on the white beach without any harvest.

But they didn't come here to harvest.

Luo Miya saw that the once white beach had become a dead land and was depressed.

After finding this place, Ning you and the three successfully found the village mentioned by Luo Miya.

Since romiya said that the village was rich in fishers, it was easy to find it by looking along the shore.

——[yasim village].

Yasim village, there is a small port.

In the harbor, there are many small floating boats.

These floating boats can only accommodate a few people and are not fast. These floating boats cannot be used for navigation between giant beasts.

When several people in Ningyou passed by the small port, they happened to see a small floating boat coming back from the cloud overseas.

The salvage crew wore equipment like a submarine suit. On the round head cover, there was a pipe connected with the floating boat.

It is through the pull generated by this pipeline that the Salvage workers enter the sea of clouds and salvage all kinds of relics sunk in the sea of clouds for a living.

"Excuse me, do you know Kenai?"

Ning you stepped forward and asked.

Originally, the villagers looked at the three people with vigilance.

But when Xiao Chuer came forward, the villagers became enthusiastic again.

When they heard that they knew Kenai, they happily and happily pointed out the way for Xiao Chuer.

"... your charm is very high."

Xiao Chuer smiled a little proudly: "it's general. It's estimated that it's only two or three times that of ordinary people."

“……”

In yasim village, there are few pedestrians on the road.

It seems that most of them have been salvaged at sea.

As they walked along the road, they paid attention to whether there was an exclamation mark on the NPC's forehead from time to time.

But some errands that reward petty profits, they don't want to brush, so they just go straight to the "Kenai home".

When I came to the place pointed out by several Salvage workers, it was a small bungalow. It was estimated that Kenai's family environment was barely well-off, not too poor.

An old woman in plain clothes was pushing a flat car. With the help of the vivid illustrations on the flat car, she told the children around with a smile and a story.

Ning right three people walked forward.

"Once upon a time, there was a handsome fisherman."

"One day, he met a mermaid..."

After approaching, the old woman spoke in a storyteller's tone. When she came, Ning you three were stunned.

It's a mermaid story.

Originally, they wanted to go straight to the subject and ask where Kenai was. But when they found that what the old woman said turned out to be a mermaid's story, they joined the ranks of children and listened quietly to the follow-up of the illustration story.

But listen... The three changed their faces.

At the beginning, I listened to it with the mood of listening to love stories.

After all, this beginning is a typical Mermaid love story.

But no one expected that the painting style suddenly changed into a thriller.

The old woman quickly switches to the next illustration.

In the illustration of the image, a mermaid, with a green face and tusks, frightens the children into screaming.

But although the children roared in their mouths, they didn't look too frightened. It seems that they have heard this story more than once.

The story is simple from beginning to end.

Once upon a time, a fisherman went out to sea and met a fish. Ah, no, mermaid.

If the mermaid gets away from the water for too long, it will become a bubble and disappear, so the salvor is kind enough to save the mermaid.

Before meeting the mermaid, the fisherman had a beautiful wife who was about to marry. She lived a happy life and was about to step into the peak of her life.

But after saving the mermaid, the handsome boy hid the mermaid on the white beach and ran out of the village every night to listen to the mermaid singing.

Really, it's just a simple song, a serious one.

Later, the mermaid returned to her hometown.

The salvage worker was under a spell. He didn't think about food and tea and became thinner and thinner day by day.

Finally... Died.

"No one can listen to the mermaid's song. Once you listen to it, you will become as fascinated as the salvage man! Oh, do you want to hear it?"

"I don't listen, I don't listen, I don't listen!"

The children seemed to have known the old woman's frightening routine for a long time, but they were really frightened. They covered their ears one by one and dispersed in a mass.

In Xiao Chuer's arms, Luo Miya listened to the sad story from beginning to end and patted the inside of the water bottle.

"No, no, Kenai... Kenai is still alive. He promised to come to me one day."

There seems to be something wrong with this task.

Ning you smiled bitterly. He stepped forward and said, "excuse me, is Kenai at home?"

The old woman smiled at the three: "Oh? Are you Kenai's friends? He went out to salvage and came back in the evening. Otherwise, you come in and have a seat. Kenai doesn't have many friends. Just stay for dinner tonight."

Li Er Pang was already hungry and hurried to promise.

Luo Miya was relieved when she heard that Kenai was all right, and she stopped making trouble in Xiao Chuer's arms.

Until night.

"No! No! Kenai's old mother, Kenai, Kenai, their boat was attacked by the sea monster kuragon!"

what the fuck?

Ning you, the three people who were ready to lie down at Kenai's house to complete the task, were stunned in an instant.

Should it be a coincidence? Or is the game plot arranged too much dog blood?

Whether they came early or late, they found the door, and something happened to Kenai?

Do you want to be so ridiculous? Dog planning!

"Let go of that Kenai!"

Brave team, three people beat the table at the same time.

……

……

Vulcan mountain.

Along the mountain wall, the hometown of fire, the previous generation built a stable plank road, which is not difficult to climb the mountain.

The plank road can accommodate three people. Kikyo walks in front of him with a bow on his back. Four strong villagers stably support a gorgeous flower sedan, which is covered with flowers.

The rest of the villagers held paper umbrellas and sang songs to send off the bride to marry the God of fire in the ashes.

If he didn't know the background of the story in advance, Yilin might think that this is a happy wedding team.

As the team went deep into Huoshen mountain and sat in a sedan chair, Li Nali, who had been silent and biting her lips, turned whiter and whiter. Between the white and neat teeth and the round lips, a trace of blood was bitten out because of too much force, which seemed to add a touch of lip red to the bride's makeup.

With the deepening of the team, the singing style gradually changes.

"Oh, babbling, babbling -"

The villagers experienced and began to cry.

To Yilin's feeling, the team is less and less like sending a marriage, like sending a funeral.

It's just that the person who was sent is not dead.

Still sitting on the flower sedan.

The bride's face is getting whiter and whiter.

Like dead.

Li Lei presents his sister with a long gun in his hand, and his fingernails are embedded in the meat.

Yilin followed the team steadily, no one found or knew, just like a shadow.

His expression was calm, he witnessed all this with his own eyes, like a passer-by.

Yilin should ignore it.

After all, he hasn't received any tasks so far.

Even if it destroys the "marriage giving" this time, it is only white work.

There will be no experience, no gold coins, no equipment and no harvest.

What's the point?

Yilin has been thinking about this problem.

It's just a game.

He is just a "player" trapped in the game world.

Savior, brave, kind assassin, great engineer... All identities are just settings in the game, and everything is illusory.

But somehow, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

Whether it's the depression of the dust all over the sky, or the girl who is about to be sacrificed, or the Platycodon grandiflorum with a long bow in front of the team, or the villagers of the fire source town who are sad and indifferent, everything makes Yilin feel uncomfortable.

Finally.

The team followed the plank road to the hillside.

There is a deep cave here.

The hot breath came out of the cave. The closer it was to the cave, it seemed that even its fur was scorched, which was unbearable.

"Here we are."

Kikyo said calmly.

Li Nali on the sedan chair, whose face was already pale, was as white as a piece of paper.

But she still clenched her teeth and stumbled down from the sedan chair silently.

Other villagers watched the two people, one before and one after, into the cave.
