Chapter 133 Your mission is completed (three-in-one)
Soon, the five people met again.
They looked at the old wooden box in the middle of the pool with hesitant expressions.
"——I'm 100% sure that there are definitely monsters in the water. As long as we get close to the treasure chest, we will be slaughtered."
Nugget Gold sent a text message.
"——But we have no extra time to continue exploring. Even if we know that this is a trap, we still have to... (helpless expression)"
the centaur replied.
"——You only have this life left. I have one more chance to be resurrected. It just so happens that this life doesn't have much sense. I'm going to take a trip."
After sending the message, Polaris walked forward without looking back.
"—Be careful, Polaris."
Su Keying gave an instruction.
Polaris nodded silently, and as he walked forward, afterimages began to appear in his vision, and he felt like he would go crazy soon.
When I came to the pool, I looked around for a while and found that the water was very turbid and I couldn't see what was underneath. There was no wind at the moment, and the entire water surface was quite calm and without any ripples, just like the open bloody mouth of a giant beast, quietly waiting for its prey to come.
Polaris took a deep breath, and the next second he jumped directly into the water.
Wow!
The pool splashed.
He didn't waste any time and swam directly towards the small piece of land in the middle of the pool.
The pool is not big, only about the size of two or three basketball courts, and Polaris can swim to its destination quickly.
But when he was halfway through swimming, he suddenly felt that his leg was entangled with a huge and soft object, and then a huge force came from him.
There was no room for struggle as he was dragged down.
Gululu...
The few people at the pool saw the North Star swimming, then suddenly sank, a few bubbles appeared on the water, and the entire pool returned to a deathly tranquility.
"..."
"——There is indeed something strange in this pool! What happened? Polaris?"
Several people looked at each other, and the centaur asked eagerly.
"——I don't know, but I suspect it's some kind of large creature...an octopus? Maybe it's something else, I can't see clearly."
"——Then we won't wait for you. Our rationality has been diminishing and we can't waste time."
"——Let's fight and get something back."
"——Go into the water at a distance to avoid being caught by the monsters under the water."
The players exchanged a few words briefly in the public chat.
They ran around the pool, about ten meters apart.
"——I count to three, get into the water at the same time, and then don't care about anything and swim straight to the treasure chest!"
The centaur commanded in the public chat.
"——Okay, received!"
"——Understand!"
"——Let's begin."
However, just as the centaurs were preparing to count down, the pool suddenly changed dramatically.
Wow!
The water surface seemed to be boiling, with splashes of water.
Dozens of densely packed small black shadows emerged from the water and rushed towards the players on the shore.
"There's something strange! They're ashore! Move back!"
The centaur didn't have time to speak in the public chat, so he shouted directly.
Others didn't need to be reminded. When they saw this scene, they were shocked at first and then quickly backed away.
After they calmed down, they saw clearly what was coming out of the pool, and they couldn't help but be shocked.
They were "fish-men" less than one meter tall, with torsos similar to human bodies, disgusting scales all over their bodies, webbed membranes growing on their palms and toes, and carrying various rusty kitchen knives and harpoons.
Guagua! !
Their fish heads are huge, almost the same size as their torsos, and their mouths are constantly opening and closing, making strange frog-like sounds while revealing the fine fangs inside.
Zhi——!
The gills tremble and spray water.
They raised their weapons and rushed towards the players almost madly.
Bang! !
The centaur took the lead in taking out [Wrath] and pulled the trigger on a fishman.
Small steel balls sprayed on it, sending it flying several meters. The rusty iron hook in the fishman's hand fell off, and his whole body fell to the ground and rolled over. Disgusting dark red blood flowed out of the holes, soaking the soil on the ground.
What made the centaur panicked was that the eyes on both sides of the fishman's head turned and stared at him, eyes full of malice and madness.
Wow!
The row of fins on its back folded, its body stopped twisting, and it died.
[Kill the contaminated extraordinary creature "Walking Fish" and gain 120 experience points! 】
"——Don't be afraid, they are actually very weak, but their experience value is good, kill them all!"
The centaur grabbed a handful of steel balls and loaded them, then fired another shot, killing a walking fish, and took the time to issue a reminder in the public chat.
Bang! Bang bang! !
Others fired one after another, and the dense steel balls sprayed out instantly killed several walking fish.
But the walking fish behind did not stop at all. They did not care about the death of their companions and continued to rush forward with their rusty weapons.
"——It's really weak. You can basically kill one with one shot."
Forgot to reply.
"——Kill more! Each one is worth more than 100 experience points. Where can I find such an easy experience monster?"
Kotou Jin looked very excited.
He also had the highest fighting enthusiasm. After firing a shot, he loaded the gun skillfully with his left hand without stopping at all.
But there are many walking fish, and soon they are approaching the players, raising their weapons and slashing at the players.
Poof!
Wang Wuji made an accident and was stabbed in the arm.
While blood spattered, he also received a [Continuous Bleeding] DEBUFF effect.
Bang! !
Forgetting the walking fish in front of Wuji, the huge fish head suddenly exploded, and countless yellow-brown things burst out. Its body flew backwards, rolled, and finally struggled a few times until it became stiff.
Looking back, Polaris rushed to the scene, panting heavily.
"Thank you, Brother Beizi..."
Forgotten Wuji smiled and said hello.
"Don't be distracted, move quickly!"
Polaris crossed him and put on his own [Connie No. 1] mechanical gloves.
boom! !
Flames spurted out from the gloves. Polaris waved his hand, and the flames formed a curtain, covering the first few walking fish.
Guagua! !
The walking fish that was burned by the fire screamed and made a crackling sound all over its body. Then it ran forward a few steps and fell to the ground with its whole body scorched.
Polaris had a cold face and fired two high-temperature fireballs in the left and right directions again.
boom--! !
The walking fish in front of the other players exploded into the air, squawking and squealing on fire.
"——You Polar Star, you didn't help me!"
The dog-headed gold was covered in blood and was being chased and chopped by two walking fish with rusty kitchen knives.
Seeing his miserable look, Su Keying couldn't help but chuckle.
"——Don't you farm very hard? He doesn't want to steal your monsters."
Pong! Snap!
The centaur had put away his anger and took out the spoon. After it grew bigger, it seemed to be holding a "shovel" in his hand. He swung the big spoon and hit the two walking fish on their heads, making a loud noise.
It seemed that this strange thing had a strength bonus. The walking fish couldn't bear it after a few blows. The big fish's head was smashed to pieces, and it soon fell to the ground and died.
With the strong addition of Polaris, all the walking fish were quickly killed.
Everyone who had their hands free rushed to Kotou Jin and helped him kill the two walking fish. Silence fell once again by the pool.
A strange corpse was left on the ground, surrounded by a disgusting fishy and burnt smell.
"Huh... NND, I was almost killed by two experience monsters."
Goutoujin sat on the ground and wiped his sweat, but his hands were stained with blood.
He hissed and screamed a few more times in pain.
"The pain in this game is so real that I even turned it to the lowest setting, but I still can't stand it."
Polaris turned his head and looked around, and found that the corpse of the walking fish on the ground began to slowly disintegrate, and soon turned into fine particles that sank and merged into the ground.
Some strange remnants were left on the spot, including scales, teeth, internal organs and some unrecognizable flesh and blood tissue.
But soon, these remnants began to become illusory, and a few slowly disappeared.
"Quick! Pick up the loot, these things have a time limit!"
The centaur also noticed this detail and reminded him.
Everyone was startled and ran over quickly, bending down to pick up the residue on the ground.

The screen fluctuates.
Under the statue by the lake, Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and was holding a piece of gill-like tissue in his hand.
[Extraordinary Material-Walking Fish Gills]
Item description: A biological tissue that contains a hint of deep sea power. It is gill-shaped and seems to be the underwater breathing organ of extraordinary fish creatures. It can be used for refining potions, forging strange objects and other extraordinary blending rituals.
"Well..."
Chen Lun put away the extraordinary materials in his hand and pondered.
"I seem to have absolute control over the players' loot in 'Wonderland'...?"
He looked towards the lake again.
The five members of Polar Star were cleaning up the remains of the walking fish on the edge of the pool, moving quickly like a few hard-working old farmers.
"Try it again."
Chen Lun focused on a kidney-shaped object next to Goutou Jin's feet, and it suddenly began to become illusive.
Goutoujin looked down and his expression changed drastically.
"Don't go!"
He pounced forward and reached out to grab the kidney-shaped object that was as big as a baby's hand.
Snap!
The dog-headed gold took back his hand and spread it out, only to catch a handful of sand on the ground.
“Blank it!!”
His hands were shaking, and the sand shook all over his body, but he didn't notice it. His face was twisted into a ball, revealing a mask of pain.
"The goose drips with kidney!!"
When the others heard his wailing, they trembled all over and moved their hands faster, fearing that the trophies on the ground would disappear.
Lakeside.
Chen Lun shrugged and put away the kidney-shaped extraordinary material in his hand.
"It's true..."
He then looked at the lake again, his eyes focused and his expression serious.
"In that case, I won't be polite."
The five members of Polar Star all froze, and their faces suddenly showed horror.
The most worrying thing has happened, the relics on the ground are disappearing quickly!
"Quick! Move faster!"
They no longer cared about how dirty the ground was, and rushed towards each relic. Sand flew everywhere. They instantly transformed from "old farmers in the fields" to "dancers at the head of the village".
Soon, not a single thing was left beside the pool.
In the final "rescue stage" of the five-player group, everyone on average got one or two extraordinary materials, which made them feel a little better.
"Bah, bah, bah...!"
The dog-headed gold spit out the sand in his mouth, with a look of lingering fear on his face.
"Fortunately, I moved quickly enough, otherwise everything would have been lost!"
Polaris counted his harvest, took a deep breath, looked at the others and said:
"We only have a few minutes left, let's go for one last wave."
Everyone turned to look at the old wooden box on the small piece of land in the middle of the pool, their eyes burning.
"Try! We can get the best if we can't get it, but we still gain something."
The centaur said, raising the two scales in his hand to indicate.
"And the experience points from killing monsters are enough to upgrade you a few levels."
Su Keying nodded and pointed to the pool.
"Then let's spread out our positions and go into the water together as we did just now."
"Be careful of the creatures under the water. Whether it's the 'walking fish' just now or the giant monster that dragged me down before, they are all very dangerous."
Polaris gave an instruction.
The others nodded, then dispersed and stood by the pool.
The horseman counted down to three in the public chat, and then sent a message——
"Action!"
thump!
Wow! !
After the five-player group fell into the water, they swam straight towards the old wooden box.
They remained vigilant, with strong uneasiness in their hearts. The feeling of the water pool was too weird for them, and after experiencing the death of Polaris and the attack of the walking fish just now, no one knew what would happen in the next second.
The water in the pool is turbid, giving people a feeling of being filled with dirt. Just thinking about the strange creatures in the water makes me feel bad.
I just feel like my heart is tingling.
Wow...!
At this time, the dog-headed gold not far away suddenly looked stunned, splashed the water twice with his hand, then made a grunt, dived down, and disappeared into the water.
"——Well, I died first again... Just like what Polaris said, there was a huge tentacle that dragged me away. Please hurry up!"
A text message came from the dog-headed blond.
His number of resurrections has been exhausted and he can no longer go online.
The next time we meet again, it will probably be after the public beta.
The others saw the nugget gold's "last words", tacitly speeded up and swam forward desperately.
Wow!
"It's coming to find me!"
The centaur's expression suddenly changed, and he felt the fluctuations in the water.
"You guys swim quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he sank and disappeared without a trace.
Only ripples on the water surface were left.
The remaining three people gritted their teeth and swam forward, and soon reached the center of the pool. The land was very close at hand!
Wow! !
There was a violent vibration, Polar Star and Su Keying turned around to look, and Wang Wuji flew into the sky.
"Ah!"
Forgotten Wuji himself was startled and couldn't help shouting.
Immediately afterwards, a blue-gray tentacle as thick as a bucket broke out of the water, captured Wang Wangwuji who was still in the air, curled around his body, and pulled him down sharply.
boom!
The water splashed everywhere, as if it was raining lightly.
Su Keying turned around and saw that Polaris had climbed onto the small piece of land in front of her without looking back, and had already reached the side of the old wooden box.
"——Well done! Polaris! You did it!"
Su Keying sent a message.
But the next moment, she noticed that Polaris' expression changed.
"——What's wrong?"
Polaris pulled hard on the old wooden box, but the latter didn't move at all.
"——There is a lock! Can't open it!"
He took out a small knife, pried it twice more, and finally gave up.
He sat down on the ground, punched the lid of the wooden box a few times with his fists, and waited to die.
Su Keying's smile gradually disappeared.
A huge force came over her, and before she could shout, she was already following in the footsteps of the three centaurs.
Polar Star watched Su Keying sink into the water calmly and sighed.
"The level is still too low..."
He sighed and watched as seven or eight giant tentacles appeared all around and whipped towards him.
"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, Mo..."
Bang!
Before Polaris died, he took one last regretful look at the treasure box, but what he found puzzling was that the old wooden treasure box began to become illusory.
Why?
With questions, he turned into a white light.
Safe area of the lake.
Chen Lun spread his legs and sat under the statue. A wooden treasure box suddenly appeared at his feet. He reached out and touched the lid and made a tut-tsk sound.
"Don't poke, the needle won't poke..."
He only tentatively focused his attention on the treasure box next to Polaris, but he didn't expect that he could actually take it.
"So this box has been determined to be Polaris' trophy? It's just that he can't take it away... then it's up to me."
Chen Lun nodded with satisfaction.
He didn't keep all the extraordinary materials at the pond for himself, but showed mercy and let go of about a third to the five players.
As a human being, you should not be too selfish or short-sighted, and you should know how to cultivate reasonably. Think of it as watering the five closed beta players so that they can thrive in the future.
The treasure box in front of them is their first reward to themselves.
"Before unpacking, I still have something to finish..."
Chen Lun stood up and walked to the lake.
Looking at the lake gradually disappearing, the pool and the huge tentacles stretched out.
His eyes are deep.

wonderland.
Gray forest.
The small pool was like a pool of stagnant water, and the black-haired young man slowly walked to the edge of the pool.
"This is it. The giant pollution creature that looks like an 'octopus'...is hiding in the pool."
Chen Lun looked at the water and thought.
boom!
A pair of black wings appeared behind him, flapping, taking him off the ground and flying slowly over the pool.
Chen Lun's eyes trembled and instantly turned into snake pupils, with a mist of chaos filling the surface.
In his field of vision, the water pool turned into black, with flashing orange-red light spots densely hidden underneath, and one of the light spots was the largest.
Wow!
A huge blue-gray tentacle emerged from the water, causing countless splashes.
The tentacles are covered with suckers, and in the middle of each sucker, there is an underturned fang, which looks very scary.
Chen Lun had no expression on his face and kicked out.
boom! !
The tentacle seemed to have been hit by a siege ram, bounced away with a loud noise, and fell back into the water with a crash, causing a huge wave.
"The name is 'Gun Yi', an extraordinary creature contaminated by the mysterious power of [Deep Sea Faction]... The strength is about the level of [Sequence 8], but it is much stronger than ordinary [Sequence 8] extraordinary beings."
< br>
Through his life-seeing eye, Chen Lun learned some information about the octopus monster.
After the octopus monster's test was roughly solved by Chen Lun, it seemed to arouse its anger. The next moment, the water pool trembled, and four or five tentacles flew out and struck Chen Lun in mid-air.
Click! Knock, click, click... bang!
The silver cane in Chen Lun's hand disintegrated on its own, and sparks flew out, turning into a long silver whip. Immediately afterwards, the leather gloves spurted out flames, coating the silver whip with a layer of burning fire.
Phew—pop! Bang bang! !
Several rays of silver light accompanied by high temperature collided with the flying giant object, making an explosion.
The thick tentacles broke off in response, and the broken parts were bloody and bruised, beaten to pieces by the spikes and blades of the silver whip. The broken tentacle burned with extraordinary flames and fell into the water with a squeak. Even the flames did not extinguish, it was still burning, causing violent bubbles to emerge from the water.
Several bloody tentacles waved wildly, causing splashes of water. Immediately, a huge spherical head emerged from the water.
The surface of the blue-gray octopus head has blue ring patterns, and two dark horizontal eyes stared directly at Chen Lun.
A deep sense of madness and desire to kill came over me.
"Want to kill me?"
A smile appeared on Chen Lun's face, and dark golden scales slowly covered his face. He raised the flaming silver whip in his hand and whipped it hard.
"Then let's try it!"
call out--! !
The silver light suddenly appeared, and the octopus monster was too big to dodge, and could only raise its other intact tentacles to resist.
Snap! !
Amidst the loud noise, its tentacles broke again.
hold head high--! !
The octopus monster made a strange cry, and the entire small pool rippled.
call!
The black wings on Chen Lun's back flapped, and he swooped down. The silver whip in his hand was retracted and turned into a thin sword, with blazing flames burning on it.
--puff! !
A large circular mouth suddenly opened on the top of the octopus monster's head, and densely packed serrations squirmed inside, and then a thick black mist was sprayed out.
Chen Lun's figure was suddenly submerged in the black mist.
As the black mist spreads, the soil and weeds by the pond instantly turn black and rotten after being contaminated, and then disintegrate. It seems that the black mist contains extremely strong extraordinary toxins.
call!
The black mist dispersed, and a figure suddenly appeared, raising the silver sword in his hand and striking it down on the head.
"This level of poison can't do anything to me..."
Chen Lun grinned, and the flaming silver sword had already cut open the octopus monster's big head.
The silver sword was like cutting through a piece of tough leather, and thick dark green liquid burst out, which was immediately burned by the flames and made a sizzling sound.
hold head high--! !
The octopus struggled wildly, and the entire pool trembled. It was like several depth charges exploding, water rose into the sky, and light rain fell.
Then, it dived suddenly, as if preparing to escape.
Chen Lun flapped his black wings, swooped down with his silver sword, and dived into the water with a bang.
At the bottom of the turbid water, three cracks appeared on the sides of his cheeks, and fine bubbles appeared when he was gently fanned.
【Gills】!
As a man with the ability to conduct sea, land and air amphibious operations, it would be impossible for the octopus monster to dive and slip away in front of him!
In his dark and turbid vision, Chen Lun stared at the huge red outline in front of him and chased after it.
Several walking fish that he had seen before on the lake swam past him and were caught by him. The walking fish struggled in his hands, but it couldn't shake the iron-like palm at all.
Gala...!
The ring on the finger bloomed with a coquettish red light, and immediately the walking fish's body twisted and was rolled into a ball of blood mist, which was sucked into the blood poem ring.
[Kill the polluting creature "Walking Fish" and gain 10 experience points! 】
A blush flashed across Chen Lun's face, and his snake eyes became even brighter.
Through the power of the blood poem ring, he swallowed the walking fish and recovered part of his physical and spiritual consumption.
"It seems that because the level difference is too big, there has been a revenue penalty..."
Chen Lun noticed the prompt box and thought to himself.
He stepped on it, creating a circular bubble, and immediately accelerated his speed and chased forward.
In the process, he repeated his old trick, catching and "eating" passing walking fish, causing other walking fish to panic and flee in all directions.
Whether it was the octopus monster or the strange creature chasing it behind, it exuded a terrifying aura. The walking fish did not dare to get closer and stayed far away.
Soon, Chen Lun gradually caught up with the octopus monster. At the same time, the two of them had reached the depths of the pool. There was no light around and it was pitch black.
This made Chen Lun feel a little surprised, because he didn't expect that a small pool was actually bottomless.
But then I thought about it, and in this weird "wonderland", everything seemed possible.
Snap!
Chen Lun smiled and dug his big hands into the octopus monster's flesh.
[You used the skill [Animal Imitation LVMAX+2] to learn the corresponding characteristics from the target]
【Touch of the Abyss】
Characteristic description: Your body can be partially tentacled, and will temporarily have extraordinary flexibility, high mobility, powerful grabbing and underwater breathing abilities!
This is Chen Lun's first-level reward for the main mission. After adding that 1 blessing point to [Natural Favor], the [Animal Tamer] exclusive skill has been improved again. The memory grid of [Animal Imitation] can accommodate One more extraordinary characteristic has been added.
Chen Lun removed the [Gills] and preserved the [Touch of the Abyss].
The next second, the three cracks on his cheeks dissipated and were replaced by two blue circular patterns that emerged, giving Chen Lun the ability to breathe underwater as he squirmed.
All this was as he expected.
"This feature is great... [Touch of the Abyss] plus [Snake Body Incarnation], what wonderful changes will there be..." (End of Chapter)
