Alien Paradise.

Chapter 396 Unsolved Mysteries
The bottom of the cave was already in chaos.

The fishermen in the Acropolis have never seen such a terrifying monster. Their tentacles, as soft as strips of cloth, can easily cut off a human body, and their bodies can still move even after being stabbed with knives and spears. It often takes more than a dozen lives to do so. Destroy a monster. What's even more frightening is that it may appear from around you at any time. It may be one's friends...maybe one's family. One second they were fighting side by side, and the next second they will become unreasonable enemies.

This is a fatal blow to morale.

"You haven't been able to contact the host yet!" Zhang Zhiyuan fired at the potted plant monster in the distance while shouting at Naruko Asahara behind him.

The latter is arranging mass evacuation - in order to prevent new potted monsters from emerging from the crowd, she requires that all people entering the cave must line up in even-numbered rows and stand face to face, supervised by the remaining special operations team soldiers . Once anyone is found to be making any changes, they can be eliminated as soon as possible.

"I'm in the same situation as you! Of course I can't contact you if you don't get a reply!" Naruko Asahara yelled back, "How much ammunition do you have left?"

"Two magazines, plus three grenades. If one more potted plant pops up, I'll be out of ammunition!"

The single-shot musket alone cannot suppress the cult monster.

Zhang Zhiyuan did not expect to be able to defeat the company's encirclement and suppression with great difficulty. Before he could celebrate his victory when he returned to the cave, he was caught off guard by a potted plant that suddenly mutated. Although the individual strength of these monsters is not as strong as the ones encountered in Brilliant Castle, they are definitely formidable killers to the defenseless residents. They have dealt with three of them so far, and their combat resources have basically reached their lowest point.

But what he is more worried about is Chaoyang's side - the park rarely fails to respond to players. If something happens to the host, it is basically equivalent to taking away their trump card, and there is no chance of winning against the evil god.

At this moment, a strong wind struck, turning the monster in front of Zhang Zhiyuan into a pile of broken limbs.

The angel flew out of the darkness and landed in front of everyone, holding Chaoyang wearing a Sichuan opera mask in his arms.

The moment he saw the two of them, Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and the long-lost sense of security returned.

"Where have you been? Why didn't you give me a message?"

"It's a long story." Chaoyang asked eagerly, "Have you seen Vanrick Fish?"

He was slightly startled, "It seems like I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Didn't you ask him to leave before?" Portland also leaned over and looked at Elodie with some confusion.

"He ran away."

"...What do you mean you ran away?"

"Vanrick is related to the cult. Maybe he was controlled, maybe he volunteered. In short, he released all the monsters here."

Elodie briefly explained that maybe Li Qiong planted the seeds, but this detail was irrelevant.

Portland was shocked, "The fisherman boss...and the cult? How is this possible!?"

"Hurry up and get everyone out of the cave, go to the beach, to the lower city, anywhere. This is already an extremely dangerous place!" the angel urged.

"So you two are still alive...The contract was suddenly interrupted, I thought you were already..."

Coco Moqi also appeared from the darkness - because she had very little energy left, she did not join the battle rashly, but kept watching with invisibility.

"I can only say it's almost." Chaoyang said with emotion, "It's great that you're okay too."

"It's not that easy for me. You are looking for Van Rik, right? I have seen him." "Where is he?"

The goddess of magic pointed to the deep pool of water in the north of the cave, "He crossed that water and should have gone to the other end of the cave. I originally wanted to ask someone to stop him, but at that time everyone was suddenly attacked by evil things and couldn't care less. Come."

Chaoyang and Elodie looked at each other, "Good job, we'll chase him right away."

"Wait a minute!" Portland quickly stopped them. "This body of water is not easy to cross... In the past, only the Tritons could easily reach the other side. Later, after adding pumps, they also had to drain water all night. By early morning, along the You need to hold your breath for at least a minute while diving with the guide rope. After early morning, the water level will rise again and the water pump will not be able to drain it. "

No wonder Barif mentioned in his diary that the decrease in Triton slaves had slowed down the progress of the excavation.

"This is not a problem. I can give you the ability to breathe underwater." Coco Moqi added, "Not only can you breathe, but you can also swim faster without getting wet..."

"You are really a miracle, come on!" Chaoyang said in surprise.

"But... I no longer have enough energy to cast magic..."

"No problem, I'll replenish your wish later." Chaoyang held her hands up and put them behind his back.

"What about us?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked.

"You and Naruko Asahara will protect these people and leave." He replied, "Don't worry, we will win this battle."

When he came to the water pool, Chaoyang bit his finger and fed the wishing power to Coco Moqi. The latter didn't care about being disgusted anymore. After sucking on it for a while, his hair returned to its previous luster. Then she took out three fish scales from her purse and put them on the foreheads of the two of them and her own, "Okay, let's get in the water."

"That'll be fine?"

"Of course, miracles sometimes appear in simple and unpretentious forms."

Chaoyang took a deep breath, held his nose and got into the water. The water temperature here was so cold that he shivered involuntarily. But he soon discovered that the accumulated water did not wet his skin, but wrapped him like a film. He tried swimming for a while, kicked off his legs and easily ran out for several meters, as if all resistance had disappeared!
This is too amazing!
Giving a thumbs up to Coco Moqi, Chaoyang took the lead and swam towards the opposite side of the deep pool. Through Lingxi Vision, we can see that the water here is almost six or seven meters deep, and there are various skeletons and incompletely decomposed corpses scattered underneath. God knows how many people died here. The guide rope in Portland's mouth was also missing. Van Ricker probably cut the rope after crossing the stagnant water.

"What are you going to do next?" Elodie followed him and asked through consciousness, "Are you going to stop Vanrick from summoning the evil god?"

"I'm not sure yet, I have to take it one step at a time."

"Hey, I thought you had it all figured out." Angel said in surprise, "Then what do you mean by the double shadow you mentioned before? The first stage and the leading actor are both believers of the God of Karma, what about the second one? ?”

Chaoyang turned around, pointed at Elodie, and then pointed at himself.

"Both of us?"

"We are a group of people, the members of the expedition group riding the train. In fact, this green light did not even affect the nearest Qianlim Castle. Otherwise, after the reputation of the park spreads, you should have gathered a large number of followers around you. .

That's right, the builder of the second stage was the Xian Shen Wei Mi, and it was the same Wei Mi who was imprisoned in the Acropolis fifteen years later!
This is a struggle between gods and gods, and they are the participants chosen by the gods.

"Uh...so the double shadow refers to Wei Mi and Karma?"

"No...the double images in the puzzle represent different forms of the same thing. They are both unmysterized, but one was fifteen years ago and the other was fifteen years later!" Chaoyang boldly deduced, "Ten The purpose of Weimi pulling us into the Acropolis five years later is probably to prevent its arrival fifteen years ago!"
