The octopus was so eye-catching that it was impossible to ignore it. Even the group of people who were still thinking about the team battle mission were attracted by it.
"Where does the seafood come from?" someone asked.
To be honest, I'm not afraid. What's really scary are the rules of death that come unexpectedly. The danger of an octopus lying on the door frame can be ignored.
Especially the conservative gentleman's hat on his head further weakens the deep-sea fear brought by his eyeballs.
"…"
Without even thinking too much, one could guess who this octopus really was. Wen Shi calmly walked forward, his voice drifting back as he explained perfunctorily, "My battle pet."
The battle pet octopus silently took on this identity.
Wen Shi did not see the old lady at the door. She, like the little scarecrow, was wanted, so it was not convenient for her to show up directly. However, she should be nearby.
A tentacle nimbly wrapped around his thin wrist, trying to draw his attention back.
"Evolution... not bad." Wen Shi couldn't say anything more that would go against his conscience. "It looks very much like the Law of the Jungle."
He tried to use a noun as an adjective. At least the octopus was a relatively capable marine creature.
The octopus accepted the compliment calmly.
The tour guide led everyone back to the city. While waiting for the bus, Wen Shi took advantage of the boy looking at the octopus with an indescribable look. He walked over to the girl and gently reminded her, "Do you remember what happened in the Screaming Shack?"
In order to get a chance to refresh their mission, most of the shadows signed a contract with Wen Shi, requiring him to do something for them. Although there were many prerequisites and restrictions for this matter, all of them were based on maintaining the shadow's personal safety.
"I said at the time that there was a third purpose," Wen Shi raised an eyebrow and changed the subject, "Now it's time to make a decision. Can you persuade him?"
Being simple-minded does not mean being stupid. Sooner or later, the shadow and the original body will face the choice of killing each other, and the girl knows this.
Wen Shi's repeated actions were enough to prove that the boy was no match for him, not to mention that he could use other shadows to harm the boy. The third purpose was to make the girl understand that when it was time to dominate the boy, she should do so ruthlessly and not let him seek his own death.
The girl did not respond to him immediately, but stood aside in deep thought.
At the same time, the octopus took out a gift box and handed it to Wen Shi like he was presenting a treasure. When the latter opened it, he saw the shell of a little scarecrow.
The parasitic demon body had lost its big eyeballs, and the deformed little wings behind it were still emitting black light. It was obvious at first glance that it was not an ordinary creature.
Wen Shi stared at him for a few seconds, then bent down and pretended to whisper in his ear. Although the octopus has no ears and its hearing has deteriorated severely, it is not a problem for its big eyes that can quickly read any lip language. It enjoys the feeling of whispering.
Until he heard that Wen Shi wanted to use the money from selling his original body to treat other people's illnesses.
"!" The tentacles tensed instantly.
Wen Shi sighed and made a promise: "I will explain the details to you when I get back, but I promise that the ultimate goal is for you."
As he said this, he turned the hat around and put it on straight.
Having a brain is more or less useful. If this had happened before, the little scarecrow would probably have fainted from anger. Now he retained his rare rationality and did not make a fuss.
It modestly inserted one of its tentacle into Wen Shi's palm, indicating that it wanted to hold hands.
"…"As long as you are happy.
Wen Shi found the tour guide, handed her the box containing the scarecrow's body, and made a request: "I want to restore the sight of those two blind tourists. You can keep the rest."
If Wen Shi himself went to collect the reward, it would be difficult for him to explain it clearly. It would not be difficult to make up a story, but it would probably arouse more suspicion.
Besides, he was just an ordinary human in Sunset Town. Dealing with a group of orcs with ulterior motives would only make things doubly complicated. The tour guide had been staring at the octopus, clearly suspecting Big Eyeball's identity. If she reported it, and the evolutionary fluid lost from the hospital happened to contain octopus, it would be a problem.
"How about we all take a step back?" Wen Shi asked.
The tour guide has lost her original intention and won't hold on to it too much.
After putting the box away, her expression softened a little when she looked at Wen. There was nothing more practical in the world than talking about money.
The tour guide even quickly downplayed the pain she had suffered in the past two days and felt that it was acceptable to receive the mental compensation.
The bus is coming, but it's not easy to get on with a big octopus.
The octopus's body shrank instantly, turning into a palm-sized mimic that stuck to Wen Shi's shoulder like a pendant.
Wen Shi caught the fallen hat with one hand and blinked: "It looks pretty good now."
Compared to the fat worm's appearance when it grew in size, and the shadow tour guide's appearance when he was more than two meters tall, he was strangely receptive to the octopus.
The mimic octopus couldn't stand the praise, and with a "plop", it slid down into the soft palm, and its big eyes blinked.
Wen Shi secretly sighed that she had become smarter and could even make use of her own cuteness to make a fuss.
Only tourists boarded the bus at this stop. The tour guide, preoccupied with the bounty, quickly fulfilled her duties before disembarking. "This afternoon is free time. Interested travelers can gather at the inn entrance at 11:00 tonight. I'll take you to experience Sunset Town's most famous cosmetic surgery."
"...You can get a free minor surgery while traveling. Doesn't that sound like a good deal?"
No one answered, but they could tell from his words that in addition to the three options, people who chose to go to the hospital also had a to-do item for plastic surgery, but they didn't know whether it would generate a task.
The tour guide asked the two blind newlyweds to get off the bus with her. Wen Shi, who was sitting in the first row, said quickly, "We don't need to go to a very expensive hospital, but we must ensure the safety of the surgery."
The tour guide sneered: "Please trust my professionalism."
Her professional ethics is that she gets things done for money.
After the tour guide got off the bus, the atmosphere in the car became a little more relaxed. Qian Lai also sat behind Wen Shi, still struggling with which way to choose.
"I envy you so much," his voice drifted over, "you'll definitely be able to get a good night's sleep at the inn."
Judging from the current relationship between Wen Shi and his shadow, Qian Lai also felt that the other party would not hunt the shadow. In addition, Wen Shi himself had the ability to transform, so he did not have much need for skills.
Wen Shi shook his head upon hearing this: "You are wrong, the inn is not safe either."
Hunting must be done within the hospital, a restriction players must adhere to, though not necessarily within the shadows themselves. Furthermore, the game doesn't emphasize killing your own shadows; the final outcome should fall within a certain range. For example, the stronger the shadows, the higher the overall quality of the hunter.
The details can only be known when the mission is accepted. The only thing that is certain is that no one is truly safe in this process, and Shadow Afraid has no fixed restriction to kill the original body.
Qian Lai also perked up: "So you're still going to the plastic surgery hospital?"
Wen Shi nodded directly. There was no point in hiding this point.
The car happened to pass by a restaurant along the way, and Wen Shi quickly got up and walked back, deciding to have a good lunch and skip dinner.
Before getting off the car, he greeted the boy: "Let's go, eat, it's my treat."
When the car pulled over, Wen Shi continued to say to the boy, "Think about your tasks tonight while you eat, and I'll help you complete them."
Of course, killing each other is an exception. If the boy chooses to hunt the original body, he can only send the other party to death.
He is rich, handsome and will take the initiative to help. When the other shadows saw this scene, a sentence inexplicably popped up in their minds: It is important to follow the right person.
Qian Laiye's shadow said to his original self sarcastically, "We're all human, but some people have a head start from birth."
If they weren't in the car, Qian Lai would have taken action directly: Is he blaming himself for not providing him with a good environment for growth?
…
After getting off the car, Wen Shi walked back to the seafood barbecue restaurant he had seen earlier.
The boy discovered that this man had a childish side and deliberately chose a seafood restaurant, obviously just to tease the octopus.
One is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. The mimic octopus naturally wrapped its tentacles around Wen Shi's fingers, put its head against them, and put its hands in its pockets as if shivering.
"…"
He really couldn't understand where the fun was in this kind of mutual performance.
The extra money he earned from the turtle man had not been spent yet, and the banknotes here could not be used outside. Wen Shi asked to sit in a private room and ordered the most luxurious seafood buffet. He asked the waiter to bring five sets of tableware and fill all the cups when pouring water.
The boy was about to ask why he was given an extra glass of water when a piece of the ceiling above his head was lifted up and the old lady climbed down.
"Grandma, drink some water."
Wen Shi handed the cup to her.
The young man's mouth twitched, and he had to admit that he was indeed not as good a person as this bastard.
The box was very large, and the old lady sat alone on the deserted side.
"His shadow is not here." The old lady said something without any context.
Wen Shi knew that this referred to the scarecrow's shadow, no, now it should be said to be the little octopus.
The little octopus could feel a vague connection with the shadow, but this connection continued to weaken after it went out. Finally, he and the old lady decided to steal the evolution liquid first.
"Which hospital did you steal from?" This was what Wen Shi was interested in.
"Sunset Red Plastic Surgery Hospital."
The answer was not surprising, and Wen Shi's eyes lit up. After all, a hospital that could spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to hunt down a thief was definitely not an ordinary hospital.
The old lady herself was not very talkative, so it was the little octopus who explained in detail: "I can sense where the pollution is most serious, and that's where there are viruses suitable for me."
The bass voice is calm and magnetic, and compared with Jian Qingrong's own voice, it has a hint of hoarseness.
Wen Shi was almost bewitched by the sound and silently picked up the water cup and took a sip.
"Is the hospital heavily guarded?" he asked as he put down the cup.
The little octopus shook his head: "I entered through the sewer."
That is a pipe dedicated to draining wastewater, which contains all kinds of powerful viruses. This is exactly what Big Eyeball is least afraid of.
Although the evolution liquid it stole was expensive, it was actually nothing compared to the purchasing power of the wealthy people in the entire market. There were dozens of boxes of similar evolution liquids on display there.
"The worst pollution sources are underground, and I haven't been there."
To be on the safe side, it only visited the ordinary inventory area, and the old lady was responsible for meeting it in the lobby.
The little octopus pondered for a moment and said, "But that place shouldn't be simple."
It only took away one bottle of evolution liquid and tampered with the surveillance. The fact that it was discovered only means that the quantity of goods is rechecked every day.
"Originally I wanted to take some more things, but I vaguely felt something was coming towards me, so I stopped in time."
The brain is important, everything else is external.
The waiter knocked on the door outside and was about to come in to deliver the food. The old lady hid temporarily.
While eating, Wen Shi's throat felt a little sore and he coughed a few times. Suddenly, he remembered that he was not in a good condition to eat seafood, so he ordered some vegetables.
The little octopus asked with concern: "Are you catching a cold?"
The young man sneered, "He's made too many enemies. Being chased by the tour guide's shadow in his bathrobe late at night, who else would be sick if not him?"
The little octopus dropped the fork in his hand.
What bathrobe? Whose bathrobe?
Wen Shi glared at the boy fiercely and said nonchalantly, "I was chased when I just came out of the shower, but the killer is already dead."
The little octopus's tentacles shrank in autistic manner. It had only been away for two nights.
Wen Shi changed the subject in time and started to hurt each other with the boy: "Have you thought about what task you will do tonight?"
The boy didn't answer immediately.
The desire to devour the original body was boiling in his blood all the time. He did not make an immediate decision to devour the original body, which showed that he had used great self-control.
Wen Shi looked at the time: "There is not much time left for you to make a decision."
He said this to the girl, then he stood up, put the little octopus in his pocket and walked out.
Shortly after leaving the private room, the waiter came over and asked, "Hello, is there anything I can do for you?"
He thought the customer wanted to come out for more food or to get a plate.
Wen Shi shook his head.
The waiter had a dog head and good hearing. He caught some crying sounds in the private room and was slightly stunned.
Wen Shi said calmly, "It's just a small scene. An elder is crying, making a fuss, and even trying to hang himself."
The old lady in the box was given a headache by the noise and climbed back up to the ceiling. She knew too well what a troublesome person she was when she was young, so she even stuffed her ears with paper before going up.
The effect is not great, but it can provide some psychological comfort.
The teenager tried to reason: "This is a crucial choice."
The girl interrupted him and told him about her miserable childhood, crying about how difficult it was to have a relative nowadays.
The boy couldn't help but yell at her, and the girl's tears burst out like a flood.
After a while, the young man was still the first to give in: "I never said I had to fight him to the death."
However, this decision, which seemed to be dominated by him, made him somewhat unwilling.
At this moment, a faint voice came from the ceiling: "In one's life, one will inevitably have to compromise a few times. Knowing that there is no hope and still doing something that harms others and oneself is not called persistence, it is called stupidity."
After a pause, the old lady gave an irrefutable example: "Look, my shadow is quite stupid."
The boy was silent, unable to refute.
A quarter of an hour later, Wen Shi returned. The moment the young man saw him, his expression shifted. He was about to call him cunning and calculating, but Wen Shi spoke first, saying calmly, "I just went out to pick up a bill."
"…"
All the words came to my lips but were swallowed back.
Those who don't have money to pay for the bill don't deserve to speak.
After dinner, the boy was in a bad mood on the way back in the car. He was sweating while sitting on the sunny side. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing the smooth muscle lines of his forearms.
Glancing at Wen Shi standing beside him, the young man didn't know to vent his frustration to anyone. The car drove into the alley and Wen Shi paid the taxi driver.
The young man thought with sadness that he was now a gigolo.
And he's still trying to get something for free.
"God-level evolution liquid." After getting off the car and taking two steps, the boy suddenly said, "I want the God-level evolution liquid."
Wen Shi listened to him patiently.
"If I choose to devour your original body, I can keep your skills forever. If I choose the evolution fluid, then I can only use the transformation skill from now on. Or I can do nothing and be thrown into a suitable dungeon world to survive as an ordinary human."
The game also gives Shadow three choices.
Wen Shi thought for a moment and asked, "What if you choose to kill other players?"
"There's a certain chance of plundering their skills."
No one knows what the probability is, and risks and benefits are always equal. The boy deduced that the higher the hunting skill level of the player, the higher the success rate of capturing.
After listening to him, Wen Shi could already imagine that a bloody battle would break out tonight.
After reaching a consensus, the two of them simultaneously chose the mission of obtaining the God-level Evolution Liquid.
The game doesn't specifically emphasize that there must be more than one evolution liquid.
Almost at the moment of making the choice, the system prompt sounded:
"You have selected the Thief mission."
[Main Mission: Thief
Mission: You're a man who gets what you want without working, and you've decided to steal a bottle of divine evolution fluid from Sunset Red Plastic Surgery Hospital to make up for your losses on this trip. Starting at midnight tonight, you'll have twelve hours to steal. As daybreak approaches, employees will arrive for work, and your situation will become increasingly dangerous.
"Tip: Be careful of the night security guards, they're determined to catch every damn thief."
"Tip: If you're caught by security, the high-level VIP patient bracelet can help you get away with it once.]
Patient bracelet?
Xiaohua saw the players who were wiped out in the previous wave in the mirror, and they were wearing this thing.
Wen Shi pursed his lips. However, the previous wave of players probably didn't have so many choices. Devouring each other and resting in the inn for a night before leaving were definitely problems that would be faced when the dungeon was about to end.
The boy said: "Prepare some gasoline. If someone comes at daybreak, light it on fire to attract them to put out the fire."
The murderous and arsonous thoughts engraved in his bones matched the dark and bloody plastic surgery hospital in his eyes.
Wen Shi gave the young man a deep look and interrupted, "The most troublesome thing is the night shift security. The security guard is definitely not human." His thinking was slightly more flexible than the young man's, and he analyzed, "We have never encountered a game where lifespan is sealed, but in the segment where four people hold candles, the background of this project is that lighting candles can extend the lifespan of living people."
Why would they borrow my life span for no reason? I'm afraid there's something fishy going on at the plastic surgery hospital.
The two of them walked into the inn while talking.
There was a series of clanging sounds coming from upstairs. Mosquito Boss was repairing the wall that was damaged yesterday. He had no idea that while he was haggling over such a small amount of belongings, Wen Shi was passing by him with a wanted criminal worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Wen Shi and the boy returned to their respective rooms.
The old lady hasn't come back yet. Her identity as a wanted criminal brings many inconveniences, so she needs to take a more troublesome approach when she comes back.
Wen Shi's eyes hurt from the flash of the mirror house in the morning, so he leaned against the headboard to rest. The little octopus stopped beside his hand. At the sticky touch, Wen Shi suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at the little octopus quietly for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly talked about the matter of the true spirit.
From the existence of the True Spirit to its incarnation, and finally back to its true self: "I've never told you, the stronger the shadow, the greater the temperature rises. When you came that day, there were almost nine suns in the sky."
Worried that this incident would have too much of an impact on the octopus, Wen Shi gently kneaded the octopus's little head with his fingertips while speaking.
"Don't worry too much, the True Spirit is not omnipotent."
Everything is checked and balanced by the rules of the game. For monsters with absolute power, violent crushing is exactly the thing they cannot do.
The air fell into silence.
Wen Shi knew that it would require a painful and long process of acceptance. If someone told him that he might be the incarnation of a powerful being, it would be difficult for Wen Shi to accept this fact.
However, compared to humans, monsters have a more complex and distorted worldview, and are more capable of accepting new things. It seems that the world itself is deformed in their eyes, and time travel is normal.
In an overly quiet state, Wen Shi was lost in thought, Song Yan understood everything about the real world, which meant that the True Spirit knew of the existence of the real world.
This is simply too outrageous.
Or, in other words, from whom had the True Spirit heard about things in the real world? Speaking of which, although Song Yan could understand the meaning of online terms such as "contrast cuteness", this term had appeared many years ago.
At this moment, the little octopus, who had been silent for a long time, finally found his voice again, "So you are willing to spend money to treat people, it is really for me."
"…" Wen Shi came back to his senses in a second.
Bro, you've missed the point.
Wen Shi picked it up and looked into its big eyes seriously. It seemed that for a moment, a faint blue light flashed in these cute eyes, but it quickly disappeared without a trace.
After making sure that there was no more abnormality in this eye, Wen Shi put it down. He could only guess that it was because the big eyeball could not fully represent Jian Qingrong himself. Perhaps the one who was experiencing emotional ups and downs was Jian Qingrong who was still in the big factory.
"By the way, do you need some water?"
The little octopus shook its head. As evolution progressed, it would become increasingly similar to the habits of similar species, until they became similar. However, that only applied to creatures that had mutated under normal circumstances. For the big-eyed creature, the intrusion of pollution had long since transformed its body into a parasitic monster.
There will definitely be another fierce battle in the evening, so Wen Shi prepared to take a shower first, and the little octopus subconsciously followed him closely.
Her steps paused, her beautiful yet sharp eyes fixed on the tentacles clawing at the door frame below, and she reminded him warmly: "I'm going to close the door."
The little octopus thrust its tentacle forward slightly and uttered trash talk in its deepest, sexiest voice: "Tentacles can still regenerate if they're broken."
"..." A dark line appeared on Wen Shi's forehead. He removed its two restless tentacles and said, "Take them back."
His tone was as stern as that of a principal.
Being aggressive is sometimes very effective. The little octopus was completely subdued and sat quietly on the chair waiting.
The moment the door closed, Wen Shi looked at the well-behaved little octopus and felt a little pitiful: "Get bigger."
In an instant, Big Head came back.
Wen Shi put his hat on it and said, "Mr. Polite gentleman, could you please wait here for a moment?"
The two longer tentacles pulled the brim of the hat down a little, promising with actions that he would never peek.
The wooden door could not completely block the transmission of sound, and the sound of water in the bathroom continued to reach his ears. At this moment, the top hat octopus suddenly felt that it really needed to replenish water.
The last time he was in the shower, the shadow of being chased was still there. Wen Shi came out quickly and asked as he walked to the table to pour water: "Would you like some water?"
This time the octopus did not refuse.
Today was destined to be no ordinary day. At around five o'clock, the sun showed signs of setting.
The sunset came exceptionally early, and blurred green hills could be seen in the distance. The bustling noise outside faded into dust, and in the blink of an eye it was Sunset Town's daily emo time again.
Since noticing the existence of the true spirit, Wen Shi has been less and less affected by the sunset. Even if the boy was not there, he would still go to the plastic surgery hospital.
Wen Shi was curious about this place. A plastic surgery clinic within the jurisdiction of the True Spirit, seemingly connected to Frank, made for an interesting pairing. And then there were the passengers in the train station waiting room who couldn't buy tickets. Compared to the average orc, they were more aggressive and less rational, like failed experiments abandoned on an old platform.
"Twelve hours..."
The task deadline is half a day, so he will probably get the answer soon.
After the fiery red in the sky gradually faded, Wen Shi saw Li Nan and Yu Xingzhou walking back from the alley. They also saw him. Wen Shi thought for a moment and turned to leave.
The octopus also wanted to follow, but as its body shrank, the hat fell off accurately. When it was about to overturn it, Wen Shi fished it out first and took it downstairs.
Near the inn, Li Nan and Yu Xingzhou were discussing topics related to true spirits. After Wen Shi came, they did not talk behind his back. They waited until others joined the discussion before using anti-eavesdropping props.
"It's a tough battle." Yu Xingzhou knew very well that his shadow would definitely choose to hunt him, and the other party would not give up the skill of stopping time.
Wen Shi suddenly became curious and told the boy about his mission: "If two shadows attack at the same time and kill a player, who will get the skill in the end?"
"The possibility is very small. Even if the knives were aimed at the heart at the same time, there would be a subtle order in which they would be stabbed." Yu Xingzhou said, "Didn't you also say that there's only a certain chance of gaining skills when a shadow kills another player, so it's safest to kill whoever's shadow kills."
Shadows also avoid wasted effort.
Li Nan said little, looking up at the sunset in the sky. His eyes, which were always full of smiles, had a bit of coldness and hardness. "Why did you notice the existence of the True Spirit at this time? Trouble."
This means that in the main mission later on, there is a high probability that you will be targeted by the rules.
He retracted his gaze and looked at Wen Shi again: "Pay more attention to Song Yan to prevent the consciousness of the True Spirit from reviving in him."
Wen Shi heard this for the first time and frowned: "Can it be revived?"
Doesn't that mean that Jian Qingrong's consciousness may also be swallowed up in the future?
"Resurrection is an exaggeration. At most, it can affect the opponent's mind for a few moments, leading him to make the wrong decision." Yu Xingzhou explained beside him: "This situation rarely happens. The true spirit cannot forcibly interfere with the life and death of the incarnation. However, this does not mean that it can't interfere with yours."
Wen Shi immediately understood: "You mean the True Spirit might control Song Yan to do something detrimental to me?"
Yu Xingzhou nodded.
"As long as it's within the rules, this possibility can be ruled out. If you still want to take him along with you on the main quest, you must be extremely careful."
There's a saying that goes, "A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can't be on guard against him for a thousand days." Wen Shi said seriously, "Is there any way to stop it?"
Yu Xingzhou laughed: "Unless the incarnation's willpower is strong enough."
Unfortunately, willpower is not a fixed number; it is flexible and can be increased or decreased at any time.
The topic gradually became heavy.
The little octopus in his pocket seemed to feel Wen Shi's pressure and helped him relax and massage his fingers.
As he said, a voice came from not far away. It was Song Yan who had just finished the operation and the newcomer Chong.
The gauze covering their eyes was gone, and the two men could see normally. Song Yan saw Wen Shi almost immediately and hurried over to share his joy: "Boss, I can see again."
Yu Xingzhou removed the anti-eavesdropping props, and Wen Shi nodded: "Congratulations."
Song Yan wanted to say something, but when he saw that there were other people around, he hesitated.
Wen Shi: "Just tell me if you have something to say. I'm on this mission with them."
Song Yan and the newcomer Bug looked at each other and quickly stuffed something into Wen Shi's hand.
Wen Shi opened his palm and took a look. It was a small sealed medicine bottle.
The little octopus recognized the packaging: "Evolution Liquid."
"The tour guide just dropped us off at a plastic surgery hospital and left. The people there seemed to know her and weren't on guard against us." Song Yan suppressed his curiosity about the little octopus and fearfully shared what happened: "We found an opportunity to cooperate and stole a bottle of evolution fluid."
The tour guide was reluctant to take them to Sunset Red Plastic Surgery Hospital, so they were sent to a cheaper, regular hospital. The evolutionary fluid there was also ordinary, and could only evolve into ordinary beastmen.
The insect man took advantage of his ability to crawl quickly and adjust his body size freely and fished out a bottle.
Song Yan was a little excited: "Fortunately, the turtle people's evolutionary fluid is classified among ordinary beastmen, and the storage is not very strict."
"What are you doing stealing the Turtle Man's evolutionary fluid?"
They have simple limbs and like to escape when encountering problems. There are almost no characteristics that Wen Shi likes about them.
Song Yan asked in return: "What will happen if the main mission fails?"
Wen Shi subconsciously said, "I might die, or I might be stuck in this dungeon forever. The latter possibility is more likely."
This team battle mission is not like the previous ones, where it is a life-or-death battle for both sides. It is more flexible.
"That's right, so you have to leave enough room for retreat early on."
"...and the turtle man has a lifespan of five hundred years!" Song Yan's eyes sparkled as he mentioned a little-known fact he had read in a book: "If, I mean, if something unexpected happens, like a serious injury, and you can't complete the main mission within the stipulated time. I believe that even if you become a turtle man, you will still be the most powerful."
"That's right, that's right." The newcomer nodded heavily in agreement.
Song Yan: "Big Boss, you turned the world upside down in just three days. Five hundred years is about 182,500 days. By then, maybe this world will belong to you!"
Rumble!
There was a loud thunder in the sky.
Song Yan looked up in surprise: "Why is it thundering again?"
The weather is awful with thunder every other day.
Wen Shi's face was instantly illuminated by the pouring lightning.
Li Nan was silent, Little Octopus was silent, and Yu Xingzhou repeated the three words he had said in the Mirror House: "Well done."
