Returning from the abyss

Chapter 137 Critical Action
Before the sun set, both Ning Yeyi and Shu Xingruo returned to the hunter's hut safely.

The castle that Yetis saw had already become a situation where everyone was a bit suspicious, but at this moment, no one would question whether she had hallucinations or something—people who have lived here still have this insight.

The return of Ning Yeyi and the others calmed everyone's minds a little at the right time. At this time, some people already thought that the problem might be caused by the things that Yetisi touched just now.

"Don't worry about the issue of the castle yet, Lettis tell the result."

After Cheng Wuling reluctantly stopped people's topics, she asked about the most important matters first.

"Well, first of all, first of all...the things we got include two aspects, one is the notes left by the missing hunters, and the other is a few prayer utensils that Lu Ning retrieved from the pig-faced settlement..."

Yetis took a deep breath, tried not to let her attention return to the castle, and continued; "Some of the words used in the hunter's notes are not our language, but another ideographic language. I passed The comparison has roughly confirmed the content of these articles, which roughly mean the use of the core of the curse, the study of powers other than the curse, and the classification of magic and blood. As for the writing on the pig-faced wooden board, it is similar to prayers , but we don’t know how to recite it, so it doesn’t work much.”

"Is there any record of how to use divine and blood techniques?" Ning Yeyi asked.

"Divine spells require a fixed chant, similar to some magic. Pig-faced people should use divine spells. And blood spells...need a catalyst."

Ning Yeyi nodded, and took out a cloth bag, which contained the four clay pots that Lu Ning found.

"After the time reset, they returned to the hunter's hut, and I just took them back. If there is anything that could be a catalyst, it should be these."

Lu Ning took the jars, checked them one by one, and confirmed that they were still correct.

"In this case, the reason for the disappearance of those hunters will be clear." Zhao Chenshuang clasped his hands together and suddenly said, "They want to lift the curse on their bodies, so they study different powers from the magic department, and then use this power to prepare To kill God?"

"But they failed." Lu Ning handed the jar to Ning Yeyi to put it away, and said coldly, "Being missing for so long, and the curse has not been lifted, it can only prove that these hunters have failed. If they are not dead, then say Maybe it will become a puppet of those 'gods'."

"That means our enemies have increased again?" Shu Xingruo looked at Cheng Wuling with a headache, "I thought the news we got from the village was good news."

"What good news?"

"The hunter's strength is not as good as before because of the departure of several leaders. We specially visited several villages. Those families with a large number of families always have some older people. They have experienced the most powerful pure blood hunters. era."

"But the hunter disappeared for about 20 years... Ah!" Lu Ning realized the time span.

"This hunting program started 150 years ago."

Cheng Wuling simply stated his conjecture.

"About that time, the negotiating members of the hunter's hut and the village were replaced by the 'fourth brother', and the three elders who were the founders of the independent organization of the pure blood hunter probably started to study the blood technique to carry out the god killing plan at that time Right. This fourth brother is undoubtedly a very powerful hunter, but unlike those three elders, the elders in the village no longer show fear when talking about him, that is to say, this 'fourth brother' The strength of the hunter is weaker than the top three. In addition, the change from the "fourth brother" to the "fifth brother" happened 30 years ago. This change once again weakened the hunter's external strength. Now the villagers still do not know the top four The fact that a hunter has disappeared, but even now, they dare not gamble—don’t dare to fall out with the hunters.”

"Yu Wei?" Mo Lianren asked.

"They don't dare to bet on the possibility of those veteran hunters coming back. Now there is still a question...Yetis, are the divine scripts studied by the hunters the same as the prayer scripts of the pig-faced man?"

"Are the same."

"Then the strength and danger of all known existences here are already clear."

"At the top is the cursed mountain people, the culprit of everything, the god. Then, there are three veteran hunters—maybe including the 'fourth brother'. They successfully hunted the pig-faced man, and from They obtained the divine art in their hands, and started to study blood art based on this. The pig-faced man and today's pure-blood hunter should be next, with similar strength and danger. Although the murlocs are not very aggressive, they Their singing is enough to stop any prying eyes, and at the same time, they are descendants of gods, so if they want to invade the territory, they will encounter difficult situations. In the end, the villagers are actually the weakest."

The villagers who are the first obstacle to block the player are actually the weakest. This sounds normal, but it is a bit unacceptable to everyone present.

"But now we can't even beat a group of villagers," Deng Wei said.

Swarms, physically strong, resilient, and even invulnerable to death.Even players who are proficient in fighting can only die if they face such a group of people.This kind of attribute is not difficult to deal with in normal times, artillery bombardment, special explosives, corrosive toxins and so on can be dealt with, but now they really don't have any weapons that cover a wide range of strikes.

"So we will continue to release people tonight, and this time we will release people beyond a certain limit."

Time reset is buggy.

The dead and those hiding in the Moon Lake cave will not be reset, so the number of people in the cell will decrease with the reset.In this way, sooner or later, people in the village will change from "sufficient reserves" to "short reserves".

What happens after this tipping point is crossed?

"This time, tell all the released people how to get rid of the reset effect. Now is the time to act. We will go back and find more companions to come out. There are about [-] households in the village, so the tourists in this scene On average, there are nearly a thousand people, and at least half of them will escape tonight."

The task is heavy, but they are well manned.

"Lu Ning, I have something to ask you."

Ning Yeyi walked up to Lu Ning while everyone was distributing tools and routes, and whispered.

"what?"

"You also got a tool for the dirty blood ceremony? Do you know the conditions of the ceremony?"

"know."

"I have to make a preparation in advance, and I also need to verify my conjecture... Please do me a favor."

Lu Ning was slightly taken aback, then nodded cautiously.

======================
The actions of the previous night have verified the fact that people in the village will not come out unless they hear the movement.So for tonight's operation, everyone teamed up and acted quickly, which was several times faster than Lu Ning's previous one-by-one search.

With the number of multiplication explosions, the subsequent explanations are much simpler.Due to the principle of fair distribution at the beginning, at least a few people in each dungeon can quickly understand the so-called time reset and dodging methods, which is enough.

In addition, Lu Ning, Ning Yeyi, Cheng Wuling and Shu Xingruo did not participate in this operation.They thought about the hilltop castle during this quiet time.

"First of all, it's time, dusk—it doesn't rule out that Yetis triggers something special to see it, but we can't see it now." Ning Yeyi leaned on the stone, looking at the moment when Yetis saw the castle. mountain top.

"Then there are other conditions. In fact, I think it should always be visible, but the hilltop castle is opened as a later location." Shu Xingruo said, "As our exploration deepens and we understand more and more, we will naturally be able to see it." Saw it. Every reset ensures we never miss it once we see it."

"But there is a question. Is there a connection between seeing it and being able to enter?" Cheng Wuling said lightly, "This time, Ye Tisi can see it, which means that there is at least a sequence of seeing. Does it mean that only those who see it are eligible to enter the castle?" ? And if the castle is where the gods live, isn’t it an extremely dangerous place?”

"Indeed. An unknown number of gods, and possibly four high-level pure-blood hunters, this is already an insurmountable hurdle." Lu Ning glanced at Ning Yeyi and Cheng Wuling, "You really want to challenge Ninth mission? I'm not afraid of going all out, but I reject this obvious suicide."

"How is this possible now... We still have to accumulate strength for about a day. Now we can't even see the castle, at least wait until we can see it before we can discuss the possibility of killing it."

Cheng Wuling is not someone who will rush forward.

"Pure-blooded hunters can be drawn into our camp. We need information on the abilities of those veteran hunters. The people in the village can't tell why just by chatting. Only the closest people will know the abilities, right? In addition, we can use this to let them attack the castle together."

"To die together?"

"Don't you already have countermeasures? We don't need to let these thugs with outstanding combat effectiveness face the 'God'."

Ning Yeyi let out a long breath.

"Then try it according to my idea today. If it really succeeds, we will make money."

"I have to remind you that even if you succeed, the remaining time may not be enough for us to implement it together. In addition, I have other things to do, which may not be compatible with your current one."

"Then you do it." Shu Xingruo gave Cheng Wuling a slightly complaining look, "Isn't it appropriate to tell us something again? If it wasn't for survival this time, I would doubt your camp again."

"It's a good thing for us, don't worry. Lu Ning, your side..."

"There are things that I should deal with in my current status, I understand. Then after tonight—"

"We'll see."
