Immortal quest system

Chapter 174 Underground Monster Federation (4k)

"very good!"

Seeing that the owner of the store was on the verge of collapse, and insisted on saying the words of following the raise, Chen Yao smiled slightly, imitating the mantra of the owner of the store, reached out and tapped on the counter lightly, and said with a smile: "Then, the game begins!" !"

"Okay! Come on! Come on!!"

The store owner's spirit has reached its limit, and now he is only relying on his years of gambling experience and the last bit of confidence to hold on. He stood up and stood inside the counter, his face was flushed, and he cheered loudly for himself.

"Skinny boy, come on! If you dare to lose to that fat man, I..."

"How about you?" Chen Yao interrupted the shop owner's words, and said coldly: "Don't forget, we have a gentleman's agreement in advance, no matter whether we win or lose, we can't intervene in the progress of the game, let alone threaten These two lads."

"Guys, don't worry, you can play normally." Chen Yao tilted his head slightly, and said to the two terrified boys, "I, Chen Yao, will keep you safe...!"

Chen Yao's words were so loud that the store owner lost his temper, and the two young men calmed down a little. They looked at Chen Yao who was with the old god, and the distraught store owner, and then looked at the silver light on the table. 50 taels of silver, each cheered for themselves, and then sat at the corner of the counter, touching their palms, ready to start at any time.

"Okay, let's get started!"

When Chen Yao gave the order, the two boys tried their best to fight for the victory of the competition.

"Come on, come on!"

The owner of the store cheered up the skinny boy loudly, but Chen Yao leaned back on the chair back with a smile, as if he didn't care about the outcome of the game at all.

"boom!"

And this match didn't last too long, but after a short while, the skinny guy was obviously weak, and his wrist softened, and he was easily pushed on the counter by the fat guy.

"This……"

There was no suspense in the result of the competition, the fat guy won easily, the owner of the store collapsed instantly, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly opened, his head was tilted to one side, completely speechless.

"Young man, good job~"

With a wave of his hand, Chen Yao signaled the fat guy to take the silver, then took out a few taels of silver from the purse, threw it to the thin boy with a lonely face, and said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work, you two, take this little silver. Go buy wine and drink~!"

As soon as Chen Yao finished speaking, the two young men hurriedly put away their money as if they were being pardoned, nodded and bowed to the people in the room for a while, and then fled the shop as if flying away.

"why……"

After the young man left, only Chen Yao, the "medicine buyer" and the owner of the store remained in the store.

The owner of the store lost all his body in this match, and was taught a hard lesson by Chen Yao. He had completely lost his fighting spirit, collapsed on the back of his chair, and murmured in a low voice: "Why, why do you know... ..."

"Hehe~"

Chen Yao shook his head with a light smile, and said with a smile: "It's also luck~"

"step, step"

As he spoke, Chen Yao came to the owner of the store in a few steps, staring at the latter with a half-smile in his eyes, and said softly: "Okay, I won, it's time for you to fulfill your promise...!"

"Ugh……"

The owner of the store let out a long and dejected breath, shook his head unceasingly, and with a flick of his wrist, a powerful monster struck out, quickly enveloping Hu Yi and Jiang Bo.

"Dangdang"

Behind him, two ancient clay pots also made a light sound, the lids trembled slightly, and then opened suddenly.The two hearts inside flew out with the evil spirit, and returned to the master.

"Bah"

After a strange sound, there were bursts of white light, and when the light dissipated, the faces of Hu Yi and Jiang Bo instantly regained their vitality.

"Ha... woo...!!!"

After a while, both of them took a deep breath, and then panted heavily, opened their eyes respectively, and regained their vitality.

"Ah, I'm going to die, I'm going to die!!"

As soon as Hu Yi recovered, he immediately yelled, waving his fat arms in the air, as if he was still trying to resist the attacking evil spirit.

"Cough... cough..."

Jiang Bo, on the other hand, seemed much calmer. After breathing lightly, he stood up slowly, saw what was going on in the room, and immediately understood what happened. He looked at Chen Yao and smiled brightly, "That's great, I knew Brother Yao would definitely not lose!"

"This Jiang Bo, why does he trust Chen Yao so much? It was the same before the bet was started, and it is the same now that it has recovered."

Seeing Jiang Bo's reaction, the owner of the store couldn't help shaking his head in puzzlement, thinking to himself: "What is the charm of this Chen Yao, and why can people have so much confidence in him? Could it be that he has never lost before, the powerful Is it so scary??"

"Stop yelling!"

Chen Yao walked up to Hu Yi's side, stretched out his hand and patted him on the head, like patting an alarm clock in the early morning, and stopped the latter all of a sudden.

"Very well, the next bet is the second."

After confirming that both Hu Yi and Jiang Bo were fine, Chen Yao returned to the counter, looked at the shop owner with a smile, and said, "Tell me everything you know."

"me……"

The owner of the store could no longer speak a whole sentence. Facing the smiling Chen Yao, who was harmless to humans and animals, his heart was full of unspeakable fear and uneasiness. He just kept shaking his head, opening and closing his mouth, not knowing what to do. Express.

"Step, step", "crack, crack, crack"

At this time, in the back room of the small shop, the door curtain suddenly lifted, and two young men came out, both of them were dressed in nothing special, no matter how you looked at them, they were just ordinary Wengcheng youths.

One of them had a rather ordinary face, but his expression was quite kind, and he couldn't stop applauding for Chen Yao,

The other person belongs to the type that people will never forget at a glance: there is a deep scar on his face, extending from the corner of his eyebrows to his cheeks, with a violent expression on his face, as if he is dissatisfied with everything , with his hands wrapped around his chest, silent.

"It actually made our 'Gambling King' so embarrassing, amazing, amazing!"

The kind person said: "Finger Chen Yao, congratulations on passing the test, now you can join our 'Union of Monsters Underground'!"

"What fraternity?!"

Chen Yao, Hu Yi, and Jiang Bo were all taken aback, quite wary of these two people who appeared out of nowhere.

"It's the Underground Monster Federation."

The kind man smiled and said, "As the name suggests, it is a huge organization composed of monsters hidden among humans on our borderless continent."

"Our Federation spreads all over the Boundless Continent. Although it is a little-known underground organization, its power is huge, its members are numerous, and its strength is strong. It is definitely not inferior to any famous sect!"

Facing the doubts of Chen Yao and others, the kind person introduced without reservation.

"The members of our federation are mostly monsters who want to make friends with humans. They usually lurk in the human world. In the world of monsters, they can be considered strange, haha."

"In the current world, as Brother Chen Yao knows, due to the chaos of the demon king in ancient times, humans and monsters have been at odds for a long time, and they are almost irreconcilable with each other. Because of that battle, humans lost a lot of powerful monks, We monsters have also lost the demon king, and we are suppressed by humans and have no power to turn around."

"For a long time, many monsters have hated humans because of this, thinking that humans have robbed us of the borderless continent that originally belonged to us." But as he said, the kind man pointed to the scarred face beside him, "the person who bought the medicine", And the owner of the store continued: "There are also many like us who can see the demon of practice clearly and let go of that hatred."

"We believe that the world has changed, and we can no longer live a lifetime of hatred like before. It's time to get out of the monster's own world, make friends with humans, and create a prosperous world together."

"It's a pity that in the human world, there are still relatively few people who have the same idea. In addition, there is a lot of resistance in the monster world. Therefore, we can't promote our ideas with great fanfare. We can only temporarily bury the organization in the Underground, when we fully integrate into the human world and get the support of most monsters, we can tell the truth and share this continent with the human world.”

The kind man's words sounded quite reasonable and very logical. They were obviously the kind with a high IQ among monsters. Chen Yao and the others also nodded slightly in agreement.

"Then here comes the problem."

After the other party's introduction, Chen Yao said, "How did you know about me?"

"Haha, it's very simple." The kind man smiled: "Follow and observe."

"Because the Chen Yao brothers also know the reason, our underground monster association is very concerned about the situation of the 'existence' under the Cangyue Mountains. Because it has the deepest hatred for human beings, and it is so powerful that it is almost immortal. Although it has been sealed for tens of thousands of years, it is still possible to be resurrected."

Chen Yao knew that what the other party was talking about was the demon king "Ruo", recalling his previous experience underground in the Cangyue Mountains, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

"If 'that existence' is revived, it is bound to gather a group of monsters who also hate human beings to launch cruel revenge and counterattacks against the human world." The kind person continued: "If things have evolved to that point, then we All previous efforts will be in vain, and humans and monsters will never be able to coexist peacefully."

"So many years ago, we began to ambush the eyeliner under the Cangyue Mountains. All your actions in the caves of the mountains were seen by our eyeliner and reported to us, so we will not be concerned about your affairs. , especially about you, I know everything about you."

When the word "you" was mentioned, the kind person specially emphasized it, and gave Chen Yao a meaningful look, as if reminding Chen Yao, "We all know your secret".

"I see."

Thinking of the number and distribution of monsters in the Cangyue Mountains, Chen Yao was not surprised by this result. After thinking for a while, he asked the question he was most concerned about right now: "Where is Yue'er? Who took Yue'er away? ?”

"We didn't take it away." The kind man said seriously.

"Your eyeliner, did you see who did it??"

"I saw it, but I didn't see it clearly." The kind man nodded, then shook his head and said: "The other party's speed is too fast, our eyes can't see clearly, and we can't keep up. But one thing is certain, that that is……"

As he said that, a complex look flickered in the eyes of the kind man, he hesitated for a while before continuing: "The one who kidnapped Qi Guan Yue'er is a monster...!"

"call……"

Chen Yao let out a long sigh, shook his head constantly, and said to himself after a long silence: "Who the hell is this? Why did you do this? Yue'er is innocent, why did you take Yue'er away..."

"We don't know either." The kind man shook his head and said, "But brother Chen Yao don't need to be too discouraged, we already have some clues."

"What clue??"

Jiang Bo was also very concerned about Yue'er's situation and hurriedly asked.

"Yue'er is very likely to be in Wengcheng, and there is a great possibility that she is in Tianyuan Arena!"

Just when Chen Yao and Jiang Bo were about to complain that this clue was nothing new, the kind person continued: "According to the news reported by one of our eyeliners, there is a person who is suspected of being Qi Guan Yue'er in Tianyuan about seven days ago. It appeared near the general-level venues of the arena, and then disappeared without a trace."

"General...!"

Both Chen Yao and Jiang Bo took a deep breath. The two who had worked hard in Tianyuan Arena for several days knew exactly what it meant to be a general.

At present, Chen Yao and Jiang Bo are at the artillery level, and the soldier level and pawn level are not worth mentioning. Starting from the artillery level, the strength of the fighters has risen geometrically.In high-level competitions at the cannon level, the strength of fighters at the level of the black-robed fighters can already be compared with the monks of the Hanqingmen Shangxuan and even the star-top monks.

Above the gun level, up to the general level, there are four levels of chariot, horse, minister, and soldier. Although going up further, the increase in strength of fighters may not be as obvious as between the pawn level and the artillery level, but layer by layer The improvement is unquestionable.

What kind of terrifying strength will a general fighter have?With the strength of Yue'er's "Hundred Star Lanterns", can she really participate in fighting skills at the general level?
Moreover, according to the kind person, the person suspected of being Yue'er only appeared at the general level, maybe she is still above the general level.If you have reached the soul level, fierce level, or even the level of competing for star positions...

In addition, why did Yueer appear near the general-level stadium?Did she walk by herself, or was she held hostage by someone?What happened to Yue Er?

Chen Yao no longer dared to think about it any longer.

"Above the general level, there will be no informants for us, so we don't know the specific situation of Qi Guan Yue'er."

After the kind man finished speaking, he stretched out his finger in the air, and continued: "Furthermore, according to the comprehensive analysis of the clues gathered in many places, the monster who kidnapped Qi Guan Yue'er is very likely to be lurking around you on weekdays." Inside the Hanqing Gate...!"

"There are monsters in Hanqing Gate!"

Both Chen Yao and Jiang Bo were taken aback, their minds started to search continuously, trying to find some clues.

Who is the monster?Are disciples?Is it a servant?Is it Yaonong?Doom Palace, Zhongpin, Shangxuan, Xingding, where is this monster?
Or...a certain elder...?
