Chapter 185 Desert Party Arrives Little Black Man cosplay option
In the dark and silent seabed, a group of small fishes only half the size of a finger were swimming slowly, their scales faintly glowing with a faint blue light, agile and light, looking particularly leisurely and comfortable.
Suddenly, a black shadow swooped down from above like lightning, passing through the slowly swimming school of fish, causing the sea water to surge, bubbles to rise, and the light blue fishes instantly panicked and scattered.
"Beautiful little blue fish, can I eat it?"
The one who suddenly appeared and broke the peaceful atmosphere was Chu Xiuyan who was busy exploring the ocean.
He stopped in the surging sea water, spat out a small, still lively light blue fish from his mouth, and asked the system curiously.
The system is flipping through the ocean encyclopedia in the Aletta Palace. Answer: [The scales and bones are poisonous. Eating the fish raw will also cause poisoning, but it tastes delicious after being cooked. Eating it can improve insomnia. ]
Chu Xiuyan pondered, "I suspect there is still a small amount of toxicity left that makes it easier to fall asleep, but never mind, just take it with you!"
He casually threw the light blue fish into the net cage behind him, caught a few more around it, tied the lid tightly, and swam deeper into the sea.
The dark blue sea water was surging slightly around, bringing with it a cool breath.
A dark blue pearl was slightly suspended in front of Chu Xiuyan's chest, emitting a faint and mysterious luster, spreading a looming mysterious power, like a transparent and solid film, clinging to his body surface. The seawater was constantly diverted in front of this layer of power, forming soft water lines.
The mysterious power from the deep blue pearl made the sea water untouchable? Chu Xiuyan's skin, even the hair floating in the ocean, was not wet at all.
——The deep-sea exploration props provided by Sabrina perfectly isolate the seawater and pressure, meet the oxygen needs, and have built-in positioning and navigation functions, but the duration is not long? Only two hours.
After continuing to sink, Chu Xiuyan quickly found his target.
Sea urchins are clustered together in a large group of rough rocks. Their dark black spikes are particularly inconspicuous in the dim seabed.
He immediately took out a small sickle and said excitedly: "Pick, pick, pick, pick as much as I can!"
The system watched the host who was digging sea urchins, and commanded with the same enthusiasm: [Left, left, there are more sea urchins on the left side? Wow, see? That hole? There is a big? Crab in it, steamed and braised with fermented rice wine...]
After digging for about ten minutes, Chu Xiuyan was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he looked down and found that a big fight was happening in the net cage in his hand.
He was shocked on the spot.
"Oh my goodness, the squid is eating my little fish, the crab is eating my little fish, the big? Shrimp is also? Eating my little fish..."
Looking at the few light blue fish that were shivering and curled up at the bottom, Chu Xiuyan fell silent and sighed, "We are from the same roots, why are we so anxious to hurt each other?"
He knocked the small sickle against the rock wall to fix it, ready to save the light blue fish that was about to be eaten. However, the next second he found that the sickle he had knocked against the rock wall seemed to have fallen on something soft.
System too? It began to detect the surrounding environment, and then the voice became unstable due to its haste, [Host! F-fuck! Host! There is your natural enemy——]
"What the hell? How is it possible? Is there a natural enemy of mine..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a dull thud, and a tentacle came from behind with the force of thunder, bringing with it a turbulent torrent of water.
Chu Xiuyan quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding it. The tentacles brushed past his shoulders, and he could vaguely feel the smooth and cold touch.
His scalp tingled and he gritted his teeth and looked back.
I saw a dozen giant scarlet eyes gradually light up in the dark seabed.
It was a giant octopus monster, staring at the black-haired boy above with its countless eyes as big as copper bells. It was like a swimming mountain, with countless thick and slimy tentacles waving wantonly in the water.
Chu Xiuyan: "...It seems we accidentally stepped into a monster's lair."
System: [Yes, so? Why don’t you run? ]
Chu Xiuyan silently took out the small sickle, his face solemn.
"I have decided that everything that cannot defeat me will only make me stronger - I will avenge my previous shame. Today I will conquer this giant octopus! Fear, submit to me!!"
System: [Wait, conquer? Aren’t you planning to be food?! Don’t raise weird things——]
The boy rushed forward, chattering.
——
Unlike the forest guests who made a sensational appearance, the guests from the desert were very quiet, arriving outside the eastern town of the Holy City of Aleta on a giant ship.
Sabrina noticed that the first few people to get off the boat were all quite strong. One of them was a young man in a red robe who walked slowly towards her. His blue eyes looked at her coldly and seemed a little impatient.
"Hello, Desert Fortress, Cui Zhiyong."
Sabrina lifted her skirt slightly and said politely, "I am the head maid of Aletta Palace and the personal maid of Elaine. I am Sabrina. Thank you for coming from afar. We are ready..."
"Excuse me for interrupting."
The strange young man opposite suddenly spoke, his tone was also stiff, and then he suddenly fell back in front of Sabrina's sight and fell directly into the arms of his companion who hurried over.
Cui Zhiyong closed his eyes peacefully and said to Sabrina, whose expression changed slightly: "I will faint for a while. If you have anything to say, please tell the knower."
However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell into coma on the spot.
The companion with short white hair, who looked androgynous but had a sense of fatigue that could not be relieved, showed a reserved expression, "Sorry, he is a little seasick..."
Sabrina: "..."
Following the seasickness and dream sickness, there is another one called seasickness.
Fortunately, she was prepared. She raised her hand and waved, and more than ten carriages rumbled over from a distance.
"Please get in the car," Sabrina said helplessly as she looked at the group of people who had fainted from the boat. "The doctors at the Aletta Palace haven't left yet. Maybe they need to stay for two more days."
The guests from the northwest haven't arrived yet?
…
Cui Zhiyong felt that he was in conflict with the ocean.
"Mingming, I am the one with water ability?..."
He was helped down from the carriage by a kind-hearted person. The moment he landed, he felt his whole body go limp and almost fell to his knees.
"Maybe it's the dream world." The wise man didn't have the heart to say it, because his friend and superior was afraid of the deep sea.
Cui Zhiyong covered his mouth, his face pale, and turned his head to look at the group of people around him without saying a word.
The imposter Desert Messenger No. 1, Wu Gaoyuan, was stroking the white dream horse curiously, trying to discuss the purchase with its owner and was rejected without hesitation.
The desert messenger who temporarily served as the desert library manager? Number 2 - Chu Li was bored and was about to leave the team and walk to the side of the town, holding a treasure chest in his hand, apparently planning to buy a street.
This? The two could barely explain it by saying that the physique of a superpower? was different from that of an ordinary person, but the other normal superpower? companions who followed them quickly returned to normal after a brief discomfort reaction.
Cui Zhiyong began to seriously consider the possibility of his conflict with the ocean.
Sabrina, who was in charge of welcoming them, was introducing the Aletta Palace to everyone. "The first floor is the public area, the second floor is the entertainment area, the third floor is the guest room area, and the fourth floor is the collection area for various precious treasures. As for the fifth floor and above, I'm sorry that they are the private living areas of Elaine, so please do not trespass. You can go to the east corridor on the third floor first. The guest rooms have been cleaned and are ready for check-in at any time."
Cui Zhiyong was leaning on the shoulder of the wise man like a weak handsome man. He coughed twice and focused on another thing. "I heard that the people from the ruined city have arrived?"
Sabrina: "Yes, their guest rooms are located on the south corridor."
Cui Zhiyong cautiously probed: "Then, have you had any broken walls, or all the tiles in a corridor pried away, or any supernatural incidents at night?"
Sabrina recalled the scene of the secret room being invaded and destroyed one night, and said calmly: "No, everything is normal."
Cui Zhiyong took a deep breath and said, "Has there been any news about any terrifying man-eating monsters or mysterious organizations in the nearby towns?"
Sabrina thought of the recent influx of people into Wind Town to search for the fictitious treasure map. She paused for a moment, still calmly saying, "Under the governance of Master Elaine, the Holy City of Aletta is peaceful and tranquil."
Cui Zhiyong was shocked and his face turned even paler, "Yun Yan didn't come?!"
He felt strangely lonely.
Sabrina felt that something was wrong. "That black-haired boy named Yunyan? He came with the forest team and has been here for almost a week. But from what I've seen, although he's a bit more active, he hasn't caused any major disturbance."
She had investigated the clues related to the secret room invasion and Fengzhen treasure map, but she couldn't find any? On the young guest of high status.
Cui Zhiyong fell silent, then shocked, and finally horrified: "Lively and active? You call that lively and active? Is he? The kind of person who can directly kidnap and drag away an entire base!"
Before Sabrina could say anything, another familiar voice sounded not far away.
"That's too much. After such a long time, I was thinking of getting some good stuff to prepare a big meal, but someone actually said bad things about me behind my back. Tsk, just take a bowl and eat in the corner tonight, stupid water monster brother."
Cui Zhiyong heard this and turned around to look, "Long time no see, Yunyan—"
On the street not far away, a familiar figure was using a coat and a sickle to tie up the slippery tentacles of a giant octopus that was ten meters tall, and was dragging it towards him with a panting sound.
The familiar figure, familiar spirit, and familiar style made Cui Zhiyong feel quite gratified.
He walked forward and took the initiative to greet him, but he didn't notice that Chu Li, who was walking slowly from the town not far away, saw the giant octopus and began to retreat silently.
"Such a big octopus! Did you catch it from the sea? I have never eaten a big octopus..." Cui Zhiyong touched the octopus's tentacles curiously.
Chu Xiuyan also? He said proudly with his hands on his hips? "I have successfully overcome my fear! By the way, brother Water Monster, what do you feel when you see me?"
Cui Zhiyong subconsciously said, "Slimy and soft, there is no such creature in our desert - Bah! Who is the same species as who?!"
Suddenly, the giant octopus that originally seemed half-dead slowly raised a tentacle.
Cui Zhiyong slowly raised his head following the raised tentacle and said, "Is this? To greet me?"
Chu Xiuyan also looked up. The half-hour battle experience gave him and this octopus monster a strange tacit understanding. "It doesn't seem like it. It should be smashing down or spraying ink."
The moment the words fell, ink-black juice gushed out from the giant octopus's body and poured down on Chu Xiuyan and Cui Zhiyong without any warning.
Chu Xiuyan, who was sprayed with black liquid all over his body, thought thoughtfully: "So it was lifted up? One of the tentacles is spraying ink!"
Cui Zhiyong, who was also sprayed with ink: "..."
He closed his eyes peacefully and slowly fell to the ground.
Until this moment, Chu Li in the woods pretended nothing happened, and slowly walked towards the black-haired boy... who was now all black. He looked at the round eyes, took out a large tissue he carried with him, and sighed, "Wipe your face, remember to hide next time."
"Wuhu! Brother Chu Li, you are here too! Our team can be reunited again! Unfortunately, Uncle is not here, otherwise it would be so lively... Damn——"
"Hey, it seems that it can't be wiped off."
Chu Xiuyan lowered his head in deep thought, and then an idea suddenly occurred to him. He squatted down and shook Cui Zhiyong, who closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, and said, "Wake up, Brother Water Monster, wake up. Look at us, we can even go to the Ko O Theater to cosplay as the little black man!"
