Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit Chapter 178

  Chapter 178 A New Cycle, Mother of Gargoyles

  'Could it be because of the coming of the blood sacrifice incident that the player's world existed for a few days.

  So this set of coral cards has changed because of feeling extraordinary? '

  The night of August 31st, the player world, the last day of the eighth cycle.

  Li Feng sat in front of the desk, looking in surprise at the five cards made of red coral placed on the table in front of him.

  He discovered this at Huang Yanyan's house. At that time, these cards formed an enchantment, which made Huang Yanyan sick.

   Later, when Li Feng deciphered the words on the head of the gargoyle, he found the answer on this deck of cards.

  Now, in bright light.

  The red coral card exudes a jewel-like soft light, dyeing the log-colored desktop with a layer of light red.

  Li Feng looked carefully one by one, and compared the most exquisite patterns with the original memory to check whether he missed anything.

  The vast sea, the bright starry sky, the dense coral group like a forest, the majestic underwater palace, and the back of a mermaid.

  Because of the matter of the mermaid and the city under the sea, when he first got the card, Li Feng took a second look at the back of the mermaid.

  That is her full back, only slightly looking back to reveal the back half of the fin-like ears, and a little bit of the cheeks at the base of the ears.

   Li Feng had this impression, but now, he found that the mermaid seemed to have turned its head a little.

  The fin-like ears can be seen more clearly, and the exposed cheeks are a little more.

   Li Feng calculated, it was about 5 to 10 degrees.

  'This thing can't really be alive, can it? '

  All kinds of horror stories I have read come to my mind, what kind of things came out of wells, TVs, mobile phones...

  Inexplicably, the hairs on Li Feng's arms stood up.

  He picked up the card that he thought had changed, and knocked **** the corner of the table a few times.

   Pick it up and take a closer look, the mermaid on the card has not changed in any way.

   Moreover, looking at the light, this coral card didn't even have a trace of bumps.

'This! '

   Feeling something was wrong, Li Feng tried to put it into the system backpack again.

  He took the card in his hand and thought about it.

   The card is still in hand.

   There is really no response.

  'The system can't even store it, what the **** is this? '

   Aroused to explore the curiosity, Li Feng took this card to the kitchen cutting board.

  He looked at the mermaid who seemed to be nodding back on the card, then found a hammer and smashed it down heavily.

   "Boom!"

   "This thing is definitely not coral material."

  Li Feng touched the hammer that had been smashed with bump marks, feeling complicated.

   'I don't believe it yet…'

   Li Feng, who didn't want to make any troubles anymore, took the cards back to the study.

  Afterwards, he took out extraordinary materials and prepared to set up an enchantment, this time he was going to try with flint.

  However, just halfway through the formation of the enchantment, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the patterns of other cards on the table.

   "Starry sky, underwater palace, mermaid, could it be..."

  Call out the system task interface.

  【Hunter promotion task: find and obtain the chart of fate】

  【Task prompt:】

  【It is said that the previous owner of the Destiny Sea Chart placed it in the deep sea, a mermaid library forgotten by history.

   It is rumored that starlight will guide you to its location in the vast sea. 】

  【Task Reward: On top of the original hunter rank, advance to another rank. 】

  'Could the underwater palace be... the mermaid library in the mission? And that starry sky...'

  Li Feng picked up the pair of cards engraved with the starry sky. Under the vast night sky on the card, there are densely packed stars.

  Under the exquisite carving, even the false stars can be seen to be somewhat dazzling.

  'Finding the starlight in the library, is it related to the star on this card? '

   Li Feng, who suddenly realized some problems, sat down with his support on the table.

  He looked at the three system tasks he had:

  The first task is to investigate the gargoyle and kill the mother of the gargoyle. The clue of this task is in Storm's End.

   And when he accepted the mission, he happened to live in Wind's Rest.

  The second task, to replace the Governor of Storm Island, Li Feng remembered that when the system gave him this task, he happened to be dealing with Governor Fell.

  The last third mission is to find and obtain the chart of fate. The mission prompt mentions starlight and the mermaid library.

  And the deck of cards I got once also happened to have mermaids, underwater buildings, and starlight.

   What's worse, Li Feng took out a key from the system backpack.

  【The key to the old library: it may be able to open a forgotten library】

   This is the remnant of the book of demons that he got when he fished the first mate who was possessed by demons in the beginning.

   Then I fished for the remnants of the Book of Demons and obtained this key.

'so…'

  The tasks issued by the system are all related to your previous or current experience.

  Although these tasks seem to be out of reach, there are even very few clues.

  However, it must be something you already have, or have access to.

  After thinking about this point, Li Feng silently removed half of the enchantment that was arranged.

   Then put the set of coral cards back into the safe and lock it.

   After thinking about it, Li Feng took them out again.

   Then I used my mobile phone to take photos of the front and back of each card in turn, so that I can save them for later comparison.

   Still feeling inappropriate, Li Feng printed out the photo again and put it in the system backpack.

   In this way, no matter what the mermaid is in the card, she will not be able to affect the contents of these photos.

  Outside the window, the brilliant neon lights disturbed the bright moon hanging in the sky, and it was approaching midnight.

   Li Feng dimmed the lights in the bedroom and lay on the bed, thinking about what happened in the last game cycle.

   First appeared in Wind's Rest as the Theater of Sorrows in the Lost Lands.

   After that, a new island appeared in the sea.

  The owner of the new island is suspected to be a troll holding a voodoo doll in one hand and a white candle in the other. Li Feng has already seen this troll.

  At midnight on the last day of the last cycle, the soul-state troll showed up in his bedroom.

   Moreover, the troll claimed that he was loyal to the Black Dragon Queen and Shia.

  However, the chief of Violet Eyes once learned through divination that this troll is the new owner of Haishi—"Tyrant".

   seems to be a very influential figure.

   And this influential troll came to tell Li Feng that night that the monster in the Theater of Sorrow was coming out.

   Thoughts go back to another thread.

  In the Theater of Sorrow as the Lost Land, there is the power of the ancestors of the black dragon, but obtaining these powers seems to require some rituals.

  That's why Shia's mother, the previous black dragon queen, collected many gargoyle heads.

  But coincidentally, Li Feng once found the lost goods of Storm's End on the new island that appeared in the sea, and what was inside was a box of gargoyle heads.

  Recalling the task of investigating the gargoyle and killing the mother of the gargoyle, the clue of the task prompt happened to be Storm's End.

  Storm's End is also collecting gargoyle heads, perhaps…

   Li Feng suddenly thought of a possibility, whether it was the dragon slaying governor, Penrose Fell, who learned the secret of the power of the black dragon clan after slaying the dragon.

  So, like the former black dragon queen, he collected the heads of gargoyles and prepared for the ceremony of obtaining the power of the black dragon ancestors.

   But, is there any relationship between the ceremony arranged with the head of the gargoyle and the monster that is about to come out of the Theater of Sorrow?

  Could it be that the ritual is a way to restrain the monster and completely seize the power of the Theater of Sorrow.

  From the perspective of the former black dragon queen and the current governor.

  They are all for the power of the Lost Land, so it is not impossible.

   As for the real power contained in the Sad Theater, Li Feng has always had a vague premonition.

  Because even though the theater was destroyed by Shia from the first floor to the seventh floor, it still stood tall.

   Does this mean that there is actually more power hidden in the theater of sorrow.

  One thought is this.

   Li Feng was even more certain that the seven levels that he and Xiya had promoted to seven ranks before, and were destroyed by Xia, were just a small matter.

  The true strength of the theater of sorrow is yet to come.

   It's just, who will get this power in the end.

   Is it Shea who is the black dragon, or the governor who prepared the gargoyle head ceremony, or is it the monster in the tower?

   'Monster... stepdaughter princess...'

  Because the ritual of combining the head of the gargoyle with the monster in the tower is inexplicable, Li Feng has some guesses.

  Just as he was thinking about doing a fortune-telling, he suddenly felt the mattress under him harden.

  The wide double bed becomes a narrower single bed.

  Heavy blackout drapes become airy white tulle.

  The long floor-to-ceiling windows become retro oriel windows.

  The scene in front of him was spinning, and he felt slightly dizzy. When he calmed down, Li Feng realized that it was already midnight.

  He returned to the world of the Endless Sea, in his personal room in Storm's End.

   At the same time, the system announcement prompts:

  【The eighth game cycle ends, and the ninth cycle begins. 】

   Quickly adapted to his current body, Li Feng turned over and got out of bed, turned on the gas lamp, took a piece of letter paper and wrote:

   "Is the monster in the Theater of Sorrows the Mother of Gargoyles?"

   Seal the letter, designate yourself as the recipient, seal it with wax, and finally take out the fortune teller's letter opener.

  With a drop of blood as the price, Li Feng opened the letter.

  I saw the changed text on the letter, which read—

   "Under the moonlight, on the bell tower, the blood of the boa constrictor frightened her, and the head of the heir imprisoned her..."

  The letter opener still maintains the original style, and does not speak human words, but Li Feng, who has enough clues, has almost understood it.

   And at the same time, a system prompt appeared in front of him.

  【Hunter promotion task: investigate the gargoyle and kill the mother of the gargoyle. 】

  【Task Reward: On top of the original hunter rank, advance to another rank. 】

  【Mission progress: +50%】

  【Total progress of the current task: 72%】

  'Sure enough! '

   There is no endless sea of ​​neon lights, and the starry sky is as bright as diamonds.

   Having obtained clear clues and goals, Li Feng stretched his brows. He opened the curtains and looked at the night sky, and began to think about the next plan.

   "I gave you strength, but you didn't give me anything in return."

  In the dock area of ​​Wind's Rest, the lights on the seventh floor of the Theater of Sorrows are fully lit.

  The warm yellow light illuminates the dark sea water under the night sky, and there are two figures standing on the embankment, one tall and one short.

   "My reward is a person's information. This person will be an enemy that hinders you from gaining power."

  Wearing a thick hood and blood red eyes, 0776 said to the mother of gargoyles with white skin and blood red lips.

  0776's system task is to complete the "Undead Believer" achievement, and the reward is the blood sacrifice event that descends on the player world.

  Through the blood sacrifice, the Mother of Gargoyles can come to the player world.

  The paper crane once promised the mother of the gargoyle that she would obtain the power of immortality from the mother of the gargoyle on the condition of countless living beings.

  But by mistake, Zhihe was killed by Li Feng.

   0776, who formed an alliance with Zhihe, inherited Zhihe's behest and completed this task.

   It's just unfortunate that Li Feng completed the player's periodical mission and prevented the blood sacrifice event from coming.

   Now, 0776, who has obtained the undead power of the Mother of Gargoyles, is somewhat unable to explain.

   "Didn't you say that when midnight comes, I can get endless creatures?

   But now it's past midnight, and I don't see anything. "

  Mother of Gargoyles asked, she looked exactly like the princess in the story at the Theater of Sorrows.

  Under the moonlit night, the atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

  0776 The player traveled back from the world just now, and he failed, but now, he has to deal with the mother of gargoyles.

   "Someone is preventing you from connecting with those beings."

  0776 began to explain casually:

   "This man's name is Rhine, and he is in Wind's Rest."

  0776 knows he must transfer his hatred now.

  In fact, his first choice must be to kill the paper crane and stop his No. 67 player.

   But he didn't know who number 67 was or where it was.

  So 0776 can only make a good plan and put the matter on the people of Wind's Rest City and Rhine, who is the people of the player world.

   Indeed, apart from player 67, 0776 hates Rhine the most.

  So he felt very happy to borrow a knife to kill someone.

   "Rhine?"

   The Gargoyle Mother said the name.

  Actually, the mother of gargoyles has never been very interested in paper cranes and the countless creatures promised by 0776.

  Because in her opinion, this is too nonsense, as for giving them strength, it is purely just raising two errand dogs.

  But this Rhine...

"Yes."

  0776 saw that the Gargoyle Mother had no intention of punishing him, and really turned her attention to Rhine, and immediately replied:

   "He is a bachelor of Storm's End, a second-tier hunter."

  The Mother of Gargoyles remembered something, and turned her gaze to the Theater of Sorrows, which had already lit seven lights.

  She seemed to have heard the name before in the Tower.

"understood."

  Under the warm yellow light and the reflection of the moonlight, the mother of gargoyles smiled.

   Neither Rhine nor anyone else could prevent her from gaining the true power in the Theater of Sorrow.

   and what lies beneath the Isle of Storms.

  At midnight, in the basement of Storm's End where the moonlight never shines.

  In front of hundreds of flickering candles.

  Mathas the Soul Eater, who was involved in forbidden spells, stood up and saluted the newly arrived governor of Storm Island, Penrose Fell.

   "Under the moonlight, on the bell tower, the blood of the boa constrictor frightened her, and the head of the heir imprisoned her..."

   Seeing Marthas, Governor Fell recited a ballad of the ancestors of mankind, and then asked:

   "Mathus, how are you preparing?"

   Hearing the governor's inquiry, Marthas replied:

   "My lord governor, my apprentices have placed the heads of gargoyles in various corners of Wind's Rest.

  As long as the mother of gargoyles does something, the barrier formed by the heads of her offspring will imprison her.

  And soon, the ritual contained in the enchantment will help you get the real power in the Theater of Sorrow. "

  Governor Fell nodded in satisfaction.

   Holding the flame on the candlestick casually, the fourth-rank and ninth-rank Holy Inquisitor Penrose Fell couldn't hide his excitement in his eyes.

  Mathus is right, soon, he will gain the true power of the Theater of Sorrow.

   But what Marthas didn't know was that besides the Theater of Sorrow, he must also get the things under the Storm Island.
