Lin Fuxia put on a piece of anti-corrosion clothing, carefully tied his wrist guards and leggings, put on a mask, hung several anti-corrosion props on his body, and then walked into the cage.
The cage next to her had a clutch going in it.
This was Lihe's fifth time carrying out this mission, but she had already died once before, leaving her with three chances. If she died again, she would lose money on this mission.
This is Lin Fuxia's seventh time, and he has never died. Whether he dies or not this time, it is a sure win.
Therefore, Lin Fuxia was very relaxed, but Li He was a little nervous.
Lin Fuxia looked at her and said, "Relax. If you encounter an emergency again, you can use props, okay?"
Lin Fuxia gave each person on the front line a substitute puppet. Although it cannot trigger the substitute effect 100%, it is also a trump card to save lives.
She also had a clutch. Last time she encountered danger, she was reluctant to use it. She also failed to predict the situation and lost her life.
Clutch took a deep breath: "Yeah, I understand."
The others came over and helped them lock the cage door, double-checking it was secure. If the door opened, the people inside would be in danger.
Other guilds nearby were also making the same preparations. The camps of each guild were different in size, and the width of their garrisons was also different, so the number of people they needed to send into the abyss was also different.
For a guild like the Waldorf Guild, they have to send out five people at a time.
On the side of the Wal Guild, Wen Qian was hiding in the crowd. When he saw Lin Fuxia appear, his eyes turned green and he rushed over like a wolfhound seeing a bone.
The people around him quickly grabbed him tightly.
With so many people watching, now is not the time to talk about this!
Wen Qian had no time to care about these things. Who knew when Lin Fuxia would come up? Would there be a chance to talk in private later?
He rushed out regardless of being stopped: "Making money is important!"
Lin Fuxia looked up at this person in surprise. At first glance, he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Then she had an impression that this person seemed to be one of the newcomers in the team who was rejected by her?
When the people from the Money Making Guild saw Wen Qi approaching, they quickly stopped him and said, "What do you want? Our president has to go on a mission."
The members of the Wal Guild also hurried over to stop him. After all, Wen Yi was now a member of their guild. The captain in charge of Wen Yi said coldly, "Wen Yi, what are you doing?"
Wenqi's name in the game is Wenyi. Firstly, it is a homonym, and secondly, it means the first in the Wen family.
He chose this name casually. At that time, he didn't know about immigration, nor did he know that he would meet Lin Fuxia, so he was not afraid of being recognized.
At this moment, when someone called out this name loudly, his first reaction was: Lin Fuxia now knows who he is.
After all, I have seen him in real life and know his name. We look similar and his name sounds similar to mine. How can I not recognize him?
So he didn't say anything else, just stood there, waiting for Lin Fuxia to show an expression of sudden realization, and then take the initiative to come and talk to him.
However……
Lin Fuxia just glanced at him, then looked away and continued to busy herself with her own things.
In her eyes, the person who came out and called her name for no reason was stopped by his superior, so there was nothing to worry about. As for what he wanted to say when he called her, it didn't matter.
She gave the cage one last check and said, "Okay, you can go down now."
The clutch was also ready, so the people from the Money-Making Guild worked together to pull the mechanism, and the golden cage was pulled up by a rack on the wall and slowly placed outside the wall.
Wen Qi's face changed, but Lin Fuxia said nothing!
Did she not recognize herself, or did she recognize herself but was dismissive?
No matter which one it is, I can't tolerate it!
He wanted to move forward, but his captain, impatient, cast a restraining spell, freezing him in place and whispering, "Don't cause trouble!"
He was about to fall into the abyss, why did he have to say it now? These newcomers were really troublesome and so tactless!
Wen Qi's body was nailed down and he couldn't move at all. He could only stare at the captain with flaming eyes.
If it wasn't for the purpose of getting close to Lin Fuxia, why would he come to the front line, hide his identity, and condescend to join the Wal Guild and act as an ordinary player?
hateful!
On the other side, the golden cage slowly lowered from the top of the wall, and below it was an abyss filled with black fog. The abyss today seemed to be more turbulent than before, with the black fog constantly churning. It was impossible to see the situation below at all, and only the sound of flowing water could be heard. It was the monsters in the abyss swimming and splashing in the water.
Lin Fuxia looked around and saw that the cages of other guilds had also been lowered, but they were all quite far away from her. The closest one was Lihe. Lihe was paying close attention to his surroundings, holding a big knife and a light water spray gun in his hands.
After a while, the golden cage was lowered a distance away. The black fog had filled the entire field of vision, and Lin Fuxia could not even see the clutch.
The black mist that stuck to his body began to corrode his clothes and equipment crazily, just like acid hitting active metal, and even made a crackling sound.
Equipment is being worn out every minute and every second, and once the equipment is worn out, the player will be in danger.
Lin Fuxia remained calm, raised her hand, and began to apply a layer of light blue light little by little, starting from her fingertips, and then covering her entire body.
This is the resistance to decay she gained after passing through the belly of a snake.
With this layer of green light, the black mist could not directly touch her skin, let alone corrode her body.
Moreover, this corrosion resistance is very strange. It is a passive attribute in itself, but it can also become an active skill: corrosion.
When she actively uses it, this attribute becomes doubly stronger and more aggressive.
The green light on her hand became brighter and brighter. She stretched out her hand and grasped a wisp of black mist. At that moment, the black mist and the green light collided slightly, and soon, the black mist was dissolved silently.
Including the green light on her body, it was also constantly consuming the black mist that touched her.
Seeing this scene, Lin Fuxia was satisfied. The experience in the snake's belly was indeed worth it.
With such an attribute and skill, she no longer needs to worry about the black fog.
In fact, Lin Fuxia has huge advantages in carrying out this mission of exploring the abyss.
First of all, she had used the extra hour to explore the abyss and died here thirteen times. Therefore, she knew more about the abyss than other players and was less afraid of it.
Secondly, she has the ability to resist corrosion. Other players are most afraid of the terrible corrosiveness of the black fog, but Lin Fuxia, who has the ability to resist corrosion, does not need to worry about this at all.
At this moment, there was a loud splash and something broke through the water.
When Lin Fuxia heard the sound, he shook the joystick in front of him, and the golden cage in the air swung suddenly to the left.
The next moment, a huge, pitch-black fish with wings jumped out, and its huge mouth bit the place where Lin Fuxia's golden cage was just now.
Its mouth was so wide open that it could swallow the golden cage whole.
The golden cage is difficult to bite into, but it is also very dangerous if both the cage and the person are eaten into the mouth.
Lin Fuxia reacted quickly, not only dodging the giant fish's bite, but also throwing something into the giant fish's mouth.
The giant fish bit the air in one bite and swallowed the thing in one bite.
Then he glared at Lin Fuxia unwillingly and fell into the water again.
It splashed a lot of water.
The black water stains splashed onto Lin Fuxia's body. They were dirty and sticky, and they dripped down like glue.
Fortunately, the green light on his body is like a protective film, which is not only resistant to corrosion but also to pollution.
In the end, Lin Fuxia was still clean.
Lin Fuxia looked at the water quietly and waited for a moment. Then there was a loud "plop" sound, accompanied by a strong white light and a huge splash of water.
It was the thing she had thrown into the giant fish's mouth that exploded.
That was provided by Jeff. It was something similar to a □□, but more powerful than that one. It was said that it contained the power of the ancestor god, that is, divine power. It could be called a monster nemesis and was affectionately called a thunder ball by the people on the front line.
Every time she went down into the abyss, it was to place these little things in the corresponding places. For example, this time Lin Fuxia came down to place 50 of these things, but she actually brought 22 with her.
The extra two are given to prevent loss. If these two cannot be used, they will belong to the player.
After the previous six missions, Lin Fuxia had already accumulated seven or eight of them. She had also studied them carefully, but she still didn't understand what the so-called divine power was. Anyway, it was quite powerful.
Sure enough, after the giant fish was blown to pieces, the surrounding black fog was cleared away at once, and other monsters did not dare to approach, and then everything was calm.
However, players' screams were heard from a distance, and it was obvious that others had also been attacked by monsters.
Soon, the golden cage came to the water surface and then slowly sank to the bottom.
Lin Fuxia was wearing a mask and had a reed-like object in his mouth.
This is called a hollow reed, an underwater breathing prop. There are many kinds of underwater breathing props in the game, hollow reed is one of them, and there are also crystal balls, fat fish bladders, breathing seaweed and other props.
Although the Money-Making Guild did not have a deep foundation, it had accumulated a lot of similar props. After knowing that they were going to the abyss, they asked the base camp to send a lot of them.
The hollow reed that Lin Fuxia is using now can support ten minutes of underwater breathing. In addition, she has many other breathing props in her bag.
In addition to using the hollow reed, she also wore two night-shining pearls, which, when placed in front of her eyes, allowed her to see in the dark.
Thus, even in the dark and suffocating abyss, she could breathe and see freely.
She saw the giant fish's body, its intestines ripped apart, floating on the water. Because of the explosion, there were no other monsters in the surrounding waters.
She kept diving down with the cage.
Ten meters, twenty meters, fifty meters...
As they went deeper, the water pressure became greater and greater. Lin Fuxia felt her body being squeezed, and then a -1-1 blood loss indicator began to appear above her head.
Lin Fuxia is now level 51. When she reaches level n+10, her health is a multiple of n+10, so she now has 2550 health points. Losing a few points is not a big deal, but she still silently gave herself a blood recovery spell.
After diving for two or three hundred meters, the cage touched the riverbed with a thud and finally reached its destination.
There is a mountain-like existence at the bottom of the abyss. When Lin Fuxia did the mission for the first time, he scanned the terrain below and marked the minefields that Jeff requested on the map in advance. Now he only needs to act according to the map.
She stood in the cage and stepped on the pedal. It was as if two legs grew out from under the cage and it started to walk.
After finding the first spot, she took out a shovel, squatted in the cage, shoveled through the gaps in the cage, shoveled through the rocks and mud, and the piles of strange remains, shoveled away all these things, then dug a hole and buried the thunder ball.
Then the second location, the third location...
Of course, there will be all kinds of situations. For example, while digging, a pair of black bone claws suddenly stretched out from the pile of bones, or a monster's head suddenly jumped out, or even long and thin snakes appeared from nowhere and crawled into the cage.
Lin Fuxia really hates snakes now. He is so annoyed that he sprays them with bright water and burns them into ashes.
Ten minutes passed quickly. She spat out the reed in her mouth and used a fat fish bladder. The fish bladder covered her entire head, but did not affect her vision.
Her blood was dropping very quickly, about 100 points per minute, and her blood recovery skills could not replenish it at all, so she had no choice but to start taking drugs.
After working so diligently, she finally dug the last hole. She was happy that the task was completed successfully today, but suddenly, a terrible sense of crisis emerged.
She raised her head and saw something covered with "tumors" swimming faintly in the distance.
When she saw that thing, her heart skipped a beat. It was that big monster!
The first time she came down to the abyss, she didn't go so deep, but she saw a huge monster covered with tumors. She just took a look at it, her head started to feel dizzy, and then she died.
Later she discovered that this big monster was patrolling everywhere. It seemed to be guarding something. If it saw an intruder, it would kill the intruder directly. Many players who came down to complete the mission were killed in this way.
She looked at the hole she was about to dig, gritted her teeth, and pressed a mechanism on the cage. A bubble appeared above the cage, and the bubble grew bigger and bigger, so the cage began to float up silently.
At the same time, she in the cage also disappeared directly.
The huge shadow swam over.
It was a huge oval monster with huge eyes all over its body, which were called "tumors". It was so scary that people would suffer from claustrophobia.
But when you see it, there is always one eye on it that can see you. As long as your eyes meet, you will die.
The monster swam here, rolled its eyes in all directions, seemed not to see anything unusual, and swam away slowly.
After a long while, Lin Fuxia calmed down again and continued to work carefully.
While digging, he kept an eye on his surroundings.
After digging a few times, they found something particularly hard.
She looked down.
Beneath a patch of mud and gravel was a very hard object that felt extremely cold to the touch. She brushed away the mud and slowly dug out a huge, scale-like object.
This scale is bigger than her body.
Moreover, this is not a single scale, it seems to be scales stacked on top of each other.
When you put your hand on these scales, you can faintly feel a rhythmic feeling, as if something is breathing.
She was surprised. Is this thing still alive?
Looking more closely, black mist was constantly pouring out from the gaps between the huge scales. Holy shit! Could this black mist in the abyss be coming out of this thing?
A terrifying thought popped up in her mind: Could the mountain range at the bottom of the abyss be a huge, long, narrow, scaly monster that constantly emits black mist?
And these thunder balls were buried to blow up this monster?
She took out the last thunder ball. Compared with the scales, the thunder ball was like a doorbell on the door, except that this doorbell was slightly bigger.
Does this thing actually work?
Suddenly, it got dark above his head, and the feeling of being stared at by countless eyes made Lin Fuxia's scalp tingle.
Holy crap! The "many eyes" are back!
Maybe it didn't leave at all!
He has been staring at me silently in the dark.
Lin Fuxia quietly took out a defensive item, cast a golden bell shield on himself, and then continued to work.
Cover the silt back up and then bury the last thunder ball.
Then she heard the system prompt.
[System Notice] You have completed today's 'Attack' mission and the seven-day chain of missions. You have received a revival opportunity x1. Please go to your superior to claim your reward.
Lin Fuxia let out a breath. As long as the mission was completed, the only thing left was to save his life and escape.
The shadow was getting closer and closer, and the feeling of being stared at was getting stronger and stronger. Lin Fuxia was sure that if he raised his eyes to look over there, he would be dead.
The most terrifying thing was that she had a strong urge to look over.
It was as if a hand was twisting her neck forcefully, lifting her eyelids, and forcing her to look over.
Damn, this is too scary!
She had never encountered such a tactic of forcing you to die.
It was as creepy as if being stared at by a female ghost.
So she gritted her teeth, pulled out the night pearls from her eyes, and her vision instantly went dark.
But the place where the "many eyes" were seemed to be even brighter.
Damn, those eyes glow in the dark!
She took out a piece of cloth from her backpack, quickly covered her eyes with it, and tied a knot behind her head!
I can't even see, let me see how you can seduce me.
At the same time, she quietly pressed a mechanism to alert the people above that they could pull her up.
"Many Eyes" floated in front of her and seemed speechless for a moment when they saw her like this.
Then came shock. The pupils of every eye trembled, expressing shock. They didn't understand why this person, who had been devoured by them again and again, could come back again and again.
The cage began to be pulled up by the net, and the "many eyes" also floated up with her, silently and in sync with her, and then those eyeballs gradually became ferocious.
The whites of the eyes, which were originally a little white, gradually turned dark red.
At the same time, the water at the bottom of the abyss became more turbulent and turbid.
Then with a snap, the cage chain broke and it fell down.
Lin Fuxia: ...
Fortunately, she was not unprepared. She opened the door of the cage and quickly rushed out.
…
The abyss today was a little different. After the cages were lowered one by one, the people left on the wall looked down worriedly, but gradually, the black fog spread up, and then monsters climbed up one by one, coming with great momentum, and their number and posture were much more powerful than usual.
Everyone had no choice but to fight.
And because it was difficult to resist, we had to call up the people offline.
On the Money-Making Guild's side, due to the lack of manpower, the monkeys and squirrels had to come out to help fight, leaving only horses and a little lion beast in the camp.
They were placed in a venue, and underneath the venue was a teleportation array. This was a group random teleportation system developed by Zhang Zhao, so that if anything went wrong, these animals could be sent away.
Otherwise, the players can't just run away by themselves and leave these guys to die.
In fact, if the supply transmission was not one-way, Lin Fuxia would have wanted to send these mounts back to the base camp long ago. After all, except for the first month, they were not of much use here.
The little lion beast was very uneasy and paced back and forth. Suddenly, it froze. In the fur on its neck, an egg was making a crackling sound and a little red bird was hatching.
It cried out in fear.
Outside the camp, in the chaos, no one saw a cat climb up to the top of the wall, clinging to it, staring into the abyss below with a heavy face.
Black air was coming out of his whole body, but because the surrounding area was already filled with black air, his abnormality was not noticeable.
This year's outbreak came earlier than in previous years.
He touched his chubby face. Was it because he hadn't stayed still and had run away twice? Or was it because his body was too fragile at the moment?
According to the plan, these aliens will use three months to build a defense line, lay down a mine net, and at the same time withstand the black fog spreading eastward and continuously consume the spreading black fog.
After all this is done, they evacuate, and then the front-line troops detonate the buried thunder balls, thus ending the year's outbreak period.
This has been the process for so many years. In just three months, who knows how many people would have died. That’s why this year we used people from other worlds to replace local soldiers.
However, now the outbreak has come early.
The big cat looked down worriedly, and the little believer was still there.
At this moment, the people guarding the wall got the signal and immediately shouted happily: "The president is coming up!"
"Quick! Pull the president up!"
However, as the chain was being pulled, it suddenly loosened and the force was no longer applied to that end of the chain.
A few people were startled and quickly pulled up the chain, but found that the other end of the chain was empty.
The cage is gone!
They were dumbfounded.
Jeff said that this cage and chain are extremely strong and are the killer weapons on the front line. The cage will never crack and the chain will never break.
But now the chain is broken, and the broken end is particularly flat and smooth, obviously it has been cut!
"Is this, this must have been done by a particularly powerful monster?"
"Then is the president in danger down there?"
"See if I can get in touch... No, I can't!"
They quickly contacted Clutch again and found that Clutch could still be contacted, and that everything was going smoothly with Clutch, and the mission was almost completed.
Also at the bottom of the abyss, if one can be contacted and the other cannot, then something must have happened to the other one!
Although everyone was anxious, there was an endless stream of monsters climbing up, and they had no time to distract themselves and could only fight in a desperate manner.
The big cat was still clinging to the wall, and the people there hadn't noticed him.
He frowned. What had happened to the little believer? If it was just an ordinary danger, then dying once wouldn't be a big deal. But if that guy targeted him, it would be terrible.
He leaned forward slightly and was about to jump into the abyss when suddenly a hand reached out, grabbed the back of his neck and lifted him up.
Big Cat: Meow???
He turned his head and looked, who is this?
Wen Qia grinned: "Let me see, what is this, isn't this Lin Fuxia's ugly cat? I heard that she treasures this cat very much. With this cat in hand, I don't think she dares not to come to me after she comes up."
Wen Qian was hurt by Lin Fuxia's disregard, and he decided to take the initiative again. This time, he set his eyes on the cat. Lin Fuxia couldn't possibly fall out with him just for a cat, right?
He was about to hand the cat over to someone nearby and ask them to keep an eye on it, but the cat kept staring at Wen Qi.
The cat's eyes were wide open and staring straight ahead, which made people feel uneasy: "What's wrong with this cat?"
Someone nearby: "Sir, this cat seems to be emitting black smoke."
"...What's with the black smoke? This is fucking black fog. Is this a monster?"
Wen Qi was horrified and subconsciously wanted to throw the cat away, but the big cat had already recognized him.
The big cat had never seen him, but the helmet recorded the scene of this man bullying the young believer.
The big cat was furious. How dare you bully my people and hurt them like that!
If it weren't for you, Old Six, would the little believer have been injured and missed roll call? If the little believer hadn't missed roll call, would I have gone to find her? If I hadn't gone to find her, would she have beaten me? If she hadn't beaten me, would I have become fat-faced and crooked-necked?
You are the source of all evil!
Then Wen Qian saw the cat meowing.
The voice was shrill and sharp.
He shuddered with fear.
The people in the Money Making Guild who were fighting heard the familiar shout and looked over, then flew into a rage: "Let go of Brother Qiang!"
Before Wen Qian could do anything, the big cat pounced on him and punched him three times with a bang, leaving a bloody mark on his neck, and then hit him with a flying knee, breaking his jaw.
No matter how Lin Fuxia beat him, he beat this guy the same way, and he was unstoppable.
Finally, it kicked his face with its hind legs and lunged straight into the abyss.
However, in the eyes of others, Wen Qi caught the big cat, the big cat was frightened and resisted, and then he threw the big cat out.
"Brother Qiang!" The people from the Money-Making Guild were furious. They rushed to the top of the wall and could only see the cat falling into the abyss and being swallowed by the black fog in an instant.
They went crazy instantly. Brother Qiang was the president's favorite and the treasure of their guild!
Now the president hasn't come back yet, and Brother Qiang has gotten into trouble. How are they going to explain this to the president?
An impulsive member rushed directly towards Wen Kari and his companions.
Wen Qi's face was swollen, his neck was covered in blood, his chin was crooked, and his eye was almost popped out by the last kick. His health bar was dropping, and before he could recover, the people from the Money-Making Guild had already rushed in front of him.
"Shit! It was that cat that hit me. It's a monster. You guys..."
Before he could finish his words, he was drowned by the fist as big as a sand bowl.
…
Lin Fuxia was being chased badly by that group of eyes. That thing was really like a female ghost, silent and elusive, and it was impossible to get rid of it.
Lin Fuxia didn't dare to look at it and covered her eyes, so she bumped into the other person's eyes several times. It felt like she was bumping into a pile of flesh, which made her shiver with fear.
"Fuck, why are you chasing me?" She couldn't help but swear in the water and almost choked.
It was extremely difficult to escape in the abyss. The resistance of the viscous liquid around was too great, and she was constantly losing blood. This time, even taking drugs could not keep up with the speed of blood loss.
At this moment, the bottom of the abyss began to shake, as if the mountains below were turning over.
Lin Fuxia's face changed as he thought of the guy with scales.
Could it be that the guy has woken up?
She gritted her teeth and decided not to bother with the eyes anymore. She took out a scroll and tore it open.
There was a flash of light, and she disappeared from the spot. The next moment, she crashed heavily into a piece of hard rock.
...Oh my god!
Where did I teleport to? Why does it feel like I'm still in the abyss?
Lin Fuxia was confused. Why was there still this sticky water around?
She carefully lifted the blindfold, took out a night pearl and pressed it against her eyes, allowing her to vaguely see the surroundings.
Isn't this still in the abyss? The wall behind her seems to be the bottom of the Shinki Mountains and the top of the wall?
No way, if you teleport in the abyss, the easternmost location you can reach is the foot of the Shinki Mountains?
She didn't believe it and tore off another one.
So I hit the wall again.
After trying three times, she resigned herself to her fate and decided to swim up on her own.
But at this time, the abyss was already filled with rolling gravel and surging waves.
It really felt like something terrible was about to come out.
…
At the foot of the Shinki Mountains, in the second-line military camp, Jeff frowned and looked up at the top of the mountains. From here, black fog was rolling on the mountain. Almost the entire mountain was covered by black fog, and even the sky was getting darker and darker.
He said solemnly, "It's not time yet. Why is it so early this year? This hasn't been arranged yet."
The snake coiled on his arm spit out its tongue, indicating that other generals were calling him. Jeff's figure disappeared on the spot and soon appeared in another military camp.
At this time, the place was surrounded by armored generals who were discussing matters.
One of them said, "The thunderballs are only half deployed. Detonating them now may be useless."
Another person said, "But if it's not detonated, that thing will come out."
"We can ask those aliens to go down and make arrangements immediately. There are so many of them, so there's still time."
"If we go down now, that eye will probably be very active. If we look into its eyes, even our soul will be devoured."
"Then don't let them know. Tell them that as long as they go down, they will have a chance to be resurrected. They will be willing to do it."
Faced with this proposal, some generals agreed immediately, while others hesitated.
The latter did not want to deceive those people from other worlds. This had nothing to do with morality. It was just that people from other worlds were a very large group and a very useful labor force. If they were deceived this time, next time, I'm afraid no one would be willing to come to the front line.
This time, because they were on the front line, their own soldiers suffered almost no casualties, which was unimaginable in the past.
A general said, "From the beginning, I disagreed with hiding anything from them. You insisted that people from otherworldly realms shouldn't know too much, and that they should just follow the instructions and tasks step by step. Now, you're still trying to conceal such an important matter. This kind of deception is bound to cause trouble."
Another general also said, "I also said that before letting them go into the abyss, they should be made aware of the existence of the eye. You said that it was not necessary and that the eye had not yet awakened. Now, the eye must have awakened. If you don't let them know, you are really sending them to their deaths."
The two sides, each with their own stance, were deadlocked. The leader looked at Jeff and said, "Jeff, what do you say?"
Everyone looked at Jeff. Jeff also said that he would use the aliens as bait. His attitude towards the aliens was not very good. Everyone thought that he would also support not telling the aliens the truth and tricking them into the abyss.
Jeff said solemnly, "During the three-month black fog outbreak period, the black fog will cross the Shenqi Mountains and spread towards the Eastern Continent. Therefore, someone must guard the mountains for three months.
"At the end of three months, the evil dragon at the bottom of the abyss will awaken and fly out, bringing disaster to the East Continent. Therefore, we must hang lightning balls all over its body before it wakes up and injure it. This way, we can survive another year.
"The timing of the ball can't be too early, or it will alarm those eyes, nor can it be too late, otherwise there won't be enough time. This is how we get through year after year. As soon as this year's explosive period ends, before we can even breathe a sigh of relief, we have to prepare for next year's explosive period. There is no time to relax."
Everyone fell silent. They knew all too well what Jeff had said. It was precisely because of this that they did not want to see their own people sacrificed.
Jeff continued, "Few commanders can survive three full years on the front lines. A commander could arrive one day and be dead the next. Why can't a commander take off his full armor? It's to prevent the soldiers below from discovering the commander has been replaced and shaking their morale. Soldiers die one after another, and we dare not publicize it, nor publish the casualty figures. But don't we know whose remains are in those mountains and in the abyss?"
Jeff touched the little green snake on his arm, his reddish-brown eyes lost in a gruesome memory. "To be frank, the Western Continent was actually raised year after year by us from the Eastern Continent, but none of us can end this cycle. Do you still want to continue living like this? Do you still want our soldiers and our children to live like this? Or, how many children can we send over here?"
"This group of aliens is our turning point, and even more so, the turning point of this continent. They will prolong our lives and allow us to wait for our god's return."
"It's us who need them, not them who want to cling to us. No one is stupid."
Jeff said and walked out.
"What are you doing?"
"There are still half of the thunder balls left to hang. Go hang them up."
This is what they were supposed to do. Now that it is so urgent, do they still have to rely entirely on others to do it?
A magical light flashed on Jeff's body, and he disappeared again. The other generals looked at each other, and one of them murmured, "God? Will our God come back?"
"Yes, God will not give up on us!"
As they spoke, one person after another disappeared from the spot.
At the same time, below the dark abyss, sticky water waves rippled and mountains rose and fell, as if a big guy was trying to struggle out from inside.
A cat with a crooked neck and a fat face slid its short and thick limbs and swam to the bottom with great difficulty, landing on a small hill.
He took two deep breaths, his sparse fur floating in the water, and then looked at the hill under his paws.
At first glance, it is just a small hill under the water, but if you look closely, you will find that the hill is in the shape of a dragon head, and it is trembling faintly, and cracks appear on the surface of the hill.
The big cat looked at the hill with complicated feelings.
This time he woke up a little too early. If he could not be injured by the thunderball, no one would be able to control him. At that time, only if he re-entered this body could he control him.
But he finally got out.
