Chapter 24: The title of long-distance running champion is at risk
After a while, Lu Zhenqiu knelt on the ground in pain.
When Chu Cheng'an saw his companions being bullied like this, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He angrily changed his target of attack from Yan Qing to the Sea Witch.
"Put the conch away! Stop blowing that thing!"
The sea witch stared at Chu Cheng'an with her innocent big eyes, but her mouth movements were much slower. She watched Chu Cheng'an walking towards her.
This game didn't bring her much benefit. If only she could...
One step, two steps, it would be best if I could get closer to her...
She was only a few steps away from...
Yan Qing, who obeyed her orders, seemed to have found an opportunity.
She immediately pointed the pointed end of the wooden hairpin at Lu Zhenqiu on the other side.
She had been stabbed in the neck by this mermaid before, and now she was going to stab her to death. It was really karma.
Chu Cheng'an was almost reaching the Sea Witch, but he sensed that Lu Zhenqiu was in danger behind him, so he turned back in the blink of an eye and chopped off Yan Qing's right hand holding the wooden hairpin with one knife.
Yan Qing covered his right hand, fell to the ground and began to twitch.
The painful expression on her face was self-evident. Just a little bit, just a little bit, her mission would be completed.
Lu Zhenqiu's mission was to kill her, and wasn't her mission to kill the Little Mermaid?
…
Yan Qing was not the only one who felt that she was just a little short of success. The Sea Witch was so angry that she wanted to send the human princess away directly. She was really just a little short of success. If Chu Chengan could be closer to her, she would be able to activate her special skills.
The two players she had previously approached for a trade were both trash, one was a little mermaid who was now kneeling on the ground unable to move, and the other was a human princess who was so stupid that she hadn't hurt the prince in the previous three or two attempts, nor had she gained any advantage over him. Now her right hand was completely disabled, turning her into a useless person with no offensive power.
The body in front of her, the prince's body consciousness is what she wants most. If she can control such a puppet...
She wanted to make a deal with Chu Chengan.
The sea witch put down the conch and asked the prince to come over. As long as the prince was willing to come over, she promised not to blow the conch again.
This seems like an obvious trap, but...
Chu Cheng'an went to see Lu Zhenqiu, and Lu Zhenqiu just happened to have something to say to him at this time. He didn't know when it started, but the two of them had such a tacit understanding that they could communicate with their eyes and minds.
Lu Zhenqiu seemed to be telling him, don’t worry about him, go kill Yan Qing!
Yes, killing Yan Qing is the primary task. After completing the task, the system can send them home, and they can be far away from this sea witch and this world that is about to be swallowed by natural disasters...
Chu Chengan gripped the knife tightly, without any hesitation, and immediately implemented the plan they had discussed.
A few seconds later, Yan Qing was hit hard on the side of her neck.
Blood was splattered on the ground, and half of Yan Qing's clothes and skirt were stained red...
Chu Chengan himself was also quite shocked. Although he had killed old witches, pirates, and many bad guys, it was still unbelievable that he would chop off the head of a girl, who was his schoolmate, so realistically...
He felt a surge of acid in his stomach and was extremely resistant to it. Beheading was too bloody, and being able to chop so deep in the neck was already the limit, and it was also his last bottom line as a human being.
After Yan Qing's death, Chu Chengan's system did not show any reaction. That was natural, as he had no mission to kill Princess Hannah.
Lu Zhenqiu's mission was completed. Regardless of whether he killed the people himself or instigated others to kill them, he was considered to have completed the mission. But even if it was completed, the system still refused to send them back...
It seems like there are more tasks to follow?
…
Chu Cheng'an turned his head away and stopped looking at Yan Qing's body, as if this would make the physiological reaction better.
The sea witch didn't care whether he was trying to suppress his disgust or was really about to vomit.
Chu Chengan's refusal to listen to her had already made her extremely angry. She was not angry about the human princess or the dead puppet.
Think about it, the prince actually helped the mermaid to complete a mission that was not his. (The sea witch had already guessed that killing the human princess was the little mermaid's mission.)
She was even more jealous. She was almost going crazy with jealousy at the two of them committing such a crime.
When did the little mermaid learn how to use her new toy (:D) so well?
She was so close to having this new toy.
The sea witch's big skirt looked like Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket, and she casually took out an iron vessel.
This thing looks a bit like a vase, one of the weapons that medieval women usually used, but it is much heavier than a vase. She smashed it at Chu Cheng'an's head, causing Chu Cheng'an, who was unable to dodge and was still feeling nauseous about what happened before, to get a big bump on the top of his head.
This sound finally drowned out the endless rain of fire pouring down outside.
The quality of the head is good.
It's not broken even after all this. You can really say that you have practiced iron head kung fu and have been a walking pot lid.
The sea witch was still not satisfied at this time, because she saw the mermaid looking at the prince with an expression full of worry and heartache.
Why...why can they be so good?
She begins playing the conch again to attack her other puppet, the Little Mermaid.
This was forced upon her by the system, and she had no choice but to accept it, so her control over this puppet was also very low.
She now blew the conch as hard as she could, hoping to break the little mermaid's legs.
This mermaid is also a useless piece of junk.
So what if I grow legs? Don't I still have to let her do whatever she wants?
I am actually so fragile that I have no chance of winning. If it weren’t for the prince…
Yes, Prince...
The prince and the mermaid princess are an old witch. Oh, just thinking about it makes me want to peel the mermaid princess' skin and make soup...
After Chu Cheng'an was knocked down by the vessel, he forced himself to stand up.
He couldn't allow the Sea Witch to blow the conch to torture Lu Zhenqiu anymore. His partner couldn't stand up now and had to rely on him.
Now that Yan Qing is dead, there is nothing to worry about. The only enemy left is the Sea Witch, and he must kill her to get through.
Chu Chengan called the system in his heart, and he went to the system to eat another piece of chocolate. How much chocolate did he have left now?
After hearing his question, the rabbit generously told him: "You have 5 pieces left."
5 yuan? That much?
This gave Chu Cheng'an some unexpected surprises. When he was fighting the tiger before, he ate a piece of chocolate to replenish his combat attributes. After eating it, he felt that his attack speed and reaction ability had greatly improved.
If that were the case, he would surely be able to...
After exiting the system, Chu Chengan chased after the Sea Witch with a knife in hand.
The sea witch put down the conch and ran backwards.
There is a big house on the map here, which happened to be built by the Sea Witch herself. She circled around the house without much effort. For a while, even the long-distance running champion could hardly catch up with her...
This made Chu Cheng'an think of the damn rabbit that had cursed him, that is, the difficulty of the system game had been raised to S level, and the running speed of the NPC in the copy had been changed to the world champion in the world champion, which was somewhat unreasonable.
The Sea Witch knew that she had speed, attack speed, and agility bonuses around the house she built, so how could she not run fast? Even the famous horse couldn't run as fast as her, but she expected that Chu Cheng'an would not be able to find her, and even if he did, he would not have the time to tear down the house.
Chu Cheng'an attacked while the Sea Witch retreated, and the only thing being consumed was time.
As for the surrounding environment, not only was there fire raining all over the sky, they could also feel that the ground beneath the island was also shaking, as if the ocean was rolling upside down. It was not difficult to imagine the torment that the marine creatures living on the seabed were going through.
Fortunately, Lu Zhenqiu was not allowed to hide at the bottom of the sea. He himself could not hide at the bottom of the sea, but as a half-human, half-fish, Lu Zhenqiu could have multiple hiding places.
At least the island is still standing strong under the protection of the Sea Witch's barrier and will not sink in the short term.
only……
Chu Chengan was a sports student. He had run so many laps, at least 10 1000-meter races. He noticed that among the two of them who were running, only his breath was getting more and more chaotic. No matter how hard the sea witch ran, she didn't seem to need to spend any effort. How could he catch up with her at this rate? She was just constantly wasting her energy.
This damn game system actually gave NPCs unlimited stamina and energy...
This broken system is too lax.
Chu Chengan had no choice but to return to the system space and eat another piece of chocolate to see if he could add his attributes to it.
As a result, when he came to the Rabbit's space this time, Chu Chengan's mission was refreshed for the first time...
In other words, the system reminded him that he had a new task to do...
New mission...
If he doesn't come again...if he doesn't come again, he will almost forget that he still needs to complete the mission.
The system's electronic voice said: "Your current mission is to defeat the powerful enemy, the Sea Witch, and the evil forces. As a prince of mankind, save the world and eliminate evil and promote good."
“…”
"Wait!" Chu Cheng'an called the system again, "System, don't leave yet. You said earlier that my current mission is to defeat the Sea Witch. How many missions do I have to complete in this dungeon level? You can't just keep asking me to complete missions one after another like a nesting doll, right?"
Got to give him hope.
The system seemed to be stuck and it took a while to react. Chu Chengan asked it what it was.
The system said: "Dear player, we understand your needs. The number of tasks you need to complete is 5, 6, 7, 8, 9..."
“…”
There was a brief blank in Chu Chengan's mind. Was it because he kept insulting the system and the rabbit, so the system set up a conspiracy theory and didn't let him go back?
