Chapter 215 Zootopia
Qiao Song has ridden more dragons on the Infinite Highway than he has driven cars, but this is the first time he has ridden on a mole's head. It feels like riding a bear.
The mole, who had been so aggressive before and wanted to capture her and bring her back for the princess to enjoy, was now as obedient as a kitten.
If for no other reason than the sword pointing at the mole's head.
"Oh, don't be angry. We are acquaintances in the fairy tale kingdom. If we count a few books back, we might even share the same worldview. If I had told you about your heroic deeds earlier, I would never have tied you up so easily."
Qiao Song had already drawn her sword and was ready to chop the mole, but this big guy smelled the scent of her dragon-slaying sword and slid to his knees.
Although the clothes make him look like a prince, the owner of this sword is not someone you can mess with.
[Fairy Tale Kingdom Exclusive Dragon Slaying Sword]
[As the first princess to become a knight, and successfully slay the dragon and save two countries, you will be respected by the native creatures of the fairy tale kingdom, but at the same time, please be careful of all creatures related to dragons, they will hate you extremely. ]
But the biggest black dragon in the fairy tale kingdom had already come to Qiao Song in a daze, and was still giving her the rule-abiding card.
"Since you killed the black dragon last time, there have been very few evil dragons in our kingdom. But since we are fighting with other zodiac areas, many snakes have come and are swallowing people everywhere. It's really annoying."
Qiao Song remembered that his predecessor Wu Ma Zhu Dingshan had said that when a snake swallows a person, it seems that it can replace the other person.
I haven't met him yet, so I can't make a conclusion.
Qiao Song sat on top of the mole's head and soon saw the hillside in the distance.
The green hillside looks like the roof of some houses, with a red wooden door and round windows underneath.
You can see a few little faces, looking out curiously.
"Didn't the fairy godmother go to catch the prince? How come she came back with a man hanging on her head?" Several people were twisting their butts here and there, and they all looked like dwarfs.
"Won't the Fairy Godmother be angry if the Prince sits on her head?" asked the Red Hat.
"That's not a prince at all, he's clearly a warrior in knight's clothes, so handsome." The man in the blue hat exclaimed.
A few little kids twisted their butts and watched for a while, and were soon dragged out by a short-haired girl behind them:
"You little dwarfs have been slacking off all day long. Why don't you get to work? If you don't complete the story, you will be dwarfs for the rest of your lives."
The little man in the pointed hat said with a serious face: "There's nothing wrong with being a dwarf. You eat less, poop less, and don't have to worry about being bitten by snakes due to overnutrition."
There have been a lot of pythons in the fairy tale kingdom recently. They specialize in eating fairy tale characters and only pick the fat ones to eat.
"If that's the case, wouldn't it be quite fun to eat you? You're like little buns, one at a time. Stop talking nonsense and get to work. When the mole mother comes back later, she'll beat you up one by one."
After the girl in the gray apron finished speaking, the dwarf finally left reluctantly.
In the kitchen, another fair-skinned and beautiful girl who was making apple pie waved her handkerchief.
"Is Mother Mole back? I just finished making my apple pie. It will be fine this time!"
The girl in the gray apron looked up at the delicious apple pie in the kitchen. She couldn't help swallowing and tried hard to resist the desire to eat.
"Hurry up and put a label on it, draw a poisonous sign, otherwise who knows who will run up and take a bite."
At this time, the mole just came to the outside of the house. Before Qiao Song came down, he noticed the situation in the house: "It's quite lively here."
The giant mole's body deflated like a ball with a hole in it, turning into a medium-sized gray furry creature.
"After all, there are many players in the family, and they are all children who need to be taken care of."
Qiao Song looked at her gradually lengthening pointed mouth, sharp teeth, and the small floral hat on her head, and recognized that this was Grandma Wolf.
Grandma Wolf coughed twice. Even though she had returned home, she still knocked on the door in a pretentious manner.
"Is Piggy Pig home?"
"at home!"
The line was clearly about the piglet building a house, but the person who opened the door was a dwarf.
Through the crack in the door, Qiao Song saw a blonde, blue-eyed mixed-race beauty.
"Mole, you're bringing the princess again... Hey, this outfit is a knight? Mulan?"
"Shirayuki, how many times have I told you to call me grandma?"
Qiao Song looked at the player who was dressed like Snow White and was completely confused by this family.
"You, as a player, would have two fairy tale identities at the same time?"
The big mole before, now Grandma Wolf, took out a big basket from somewhere and was taking out snacks.
"We can't help it. Fairy Tale City is in chaos now. It's not easy for players to survive. You have to play different roles according to your identities. You have to play them every day. Otherwise, you will go from active role playing to passive role playing. You don't want to wake up every morning without eating or brushing your teeth, just to open the window and sing to the little animals, right?"
The people in the room finally noticed Qiao Song and exclaimed, "Godmother, where did you find this wild prince? Is this a player who possesses both the identities of a prince and a princess?"
Qiao Song was just about to say that he had not unlocked his identity yet, but the moment he saw Cinderella in the corner, a system prompt suddenly rang in his mind.
[Ding——In a rich gem city, the prince picked up a beautiful crystal shoe after a ball. He had been looking for the beautiful commoner girl, and finally on this day, they met.]
[Ding——Congratulations on getting the prince identity in Cinderella, and at the same time getting a lost crystal shoe. Put it on any princess's feet and complete the Cinderella ending to end the Cinderella story mission! ]
In an instant, the people in the house who had just been bustling with activity and greeting each other, like hungry wolves, all stared at the crystal shoes in Qiao Song's hand.
Even Grandma Wolf swallowed her saliva.
Qiao Song didn't say anything. He calmly put the things into the toolbox without worrying about others snatching them away.
As soon as the shiny shoes disappeared, everyone in the house instantly regained their mood. They were enthusiastic, but some were hesitant to speak.
As the previous mole mount, Grandma Wolf couldn't help but speak up: "Big sister, oh no, big brother, do you want to use these shoes? If you like them, you can choose someone in the house to be a princess, regardless of age or gender."
According to the system prompt, Qiao Song knew that as long as he put the crystal shoes on any princess player's feet, he could force the other party to be bound as Cinderella and complete the story line.
"If we finish the story, can we eliminate the storybook?"
The guys in the room were nodding frantically.
The one holding the apple pie, the female player who looked exactly like Snow White in the fairy tale, sighed:
"If you don't eliminate it, you will inexplicably have an additional identity every few days. If it's a well-known story, it's okay, at least you can guess the pattern. For example, I can't eat apples. If I eat them, I will die. Moreover, all food made from apples I make is highly poisonous."
She showed the apple pie in her hand to everyone. Even though she said it was highly poisonous, the steaming apple pie that looked as if it had just been baked instantly attracted everyone's attention.
It's as if as long as you ask if you want to have a bite, you can't help but take it.
Snow White's Poisonous Apple
[Combined with the gourmet UP master skill of player 1527, this apple has a highly toxic toxicity. After eating it, the enemy will be poisoned and die immediately, and the player will enter a state of suspended animation after eating it. In the suspended animation state, only the prince can wake you up with a kiss. Apart from this, no other healing skills can help. ]
What a domineering skill.
It was the first time that Qiao Song had seen this kind of rule-based food skills.
Grandma Wolf also sighed: "Those girls are pretty good. The identities I drew are all cannon fodder for the elders."
She pulled out some soft papers from her hat, which looked like illustrations from a fairy tale book.
Qiao Song saw the three identities of the mole, the fairy godmother, and the wolf grandmother at a glance.
Snow White, who was the apple, also pulled her red hat and said, "I forgot to mention that Little Red Riding Hood is also me. We only need one more hunter to eliminate a book."
The girl in the gray apron also spoke up at this time: "Actually, a hunter came here once before, but that guy was also a prince, so he was quickly taken away by other players."
Qiao Song also realized from the system prompt just now that being a prince seems to be a very precious identity.
"So the fairy tale kingdom of Maotu is hunting down princes?"
This is also the reason why Qiao Song was targeted before. The big mole didn’t want to eat her, but to capture her and mate with the princess.
This pairing is pretty sloppy.
The mole got a little angry when he mentioned this: "Isn't it? I don't know who stipulated that the prince and princess in fairy tales must live happily together for the ending to count."
"The entire fairy tale kingdom is now in chaos. The plots of dozens or even hundreds of fairy tale books are mixed together. If we don't want to close these plots, we have to reach the ending first, so the princesses are searching for the prince."
The apron girl took out a newspaper and said, "It's not just that. The newsboy just brought me news this morning. The players of Snake have already taken up one-third of the Fairy Tale City map. Now the snake in the Fairy Tale Empire looks like it has grown legs and wings, and is becoming more and more like a dragon. The bard said that only a brave man and a prince can kill that guy."
Bai Xue grabbed the spatula and was eager to try: "Damn it, if it weren't for the inconvenience of using the skill, I would have stewed a pot of snake soup!"
Qiao Song understood why this mole was so eager to take her home even though he had a sword against her neck: "It seems that you are not only attracted to me, but also to my sword and shoes?"
Grandma Wolf was a little embarrassed: "Every time you clear a book, you will unlock a prop. Then we can all do without props. There are too many identities on us, so there are many rules. Snow White can't eat apples, and I can only dress up as Grandma Wolf in front of Little Red Riding Hood. Cinderella has to clean the house every day. Oh, and the same goes for the dwarfs. If they don't complete the cleaning task, they can't even leave the house."
Only then did Qiao Song notice that there was a group of little kids around.
The white hat closest to her sighed, "It's actually much better than when I first started. In the previous story of Beauty and the Beast, I was a teacup for several days and took a hot bath every day. But some players have already eliminated this story."
Among the dwarfs next to them, there are some who previously served as animal extras in the story of The Ugly Duckling.
Qiao Song calculated that there were already four or five fairy tales in this house.
“What is the basis for the division of identities?”
Grandma Wolf thought for a moment and said, "It should be related to my profession. I am a confinement nanny in the real world. After awakening the fairy godmother ability, it feels similar to taking care of children."
Not to mention Snow White, who was originally a food UP host, but the things she makes now are delicious but inedible.
The dwarfs included both male and female, most of them were students who had not yet graduated, but in fact one could tell they were not young anymore, at least adults, yet they were not allowed to go out by Cinderella.
Cinderella was a little embarrassed: "I'm a kindergarten teacher... professional instinct..."
In addition to Cinderella, she is also the little match girl who has a natural sensitivity to environmental risks.
"The weather in the Fairy Tale Kingdom is changeable right now, so I just let them clean up at home. After they finish today's role-playing task, I won't let them go out anymore. I have a feeling that there might be a snowstorm tonight."
Cinderella's feeling was very accurate. When the whole family was preparing to cook at night, the sky outside the window darkened in just a few minutes.
The sun is shining brightly during the day, but heavy snow falls at night.
Not only snow, but also the howling of hurricane force winds.
The temperature in the house quickly dropped. Fortunately, the dwarfs remembered their duties and had chopped the wood during the day. While the princesses cooked, Grandma Wolf and the dwarves lit the fireplace.
The house was filled with orange light and soon became warm. Qiao Song did not agree on the use of the crystal shoes and kept using his phone to contact players in other areas to explain some things to do later.
After Qiao Song gained the management rights of the Wu Ma area, the signal of his cell phone was greatly strengthened, at least he could contact the players in his own territory without any obstacles.
Xin Yue was shocked when she learned that she had left Wu Ma and came to Mao Tu's territory.
She cried and said that fairy tales were all lies and told Qiao Song not to be fooled. She and her brother rushed over immediately and took the second wave of teleportation channel.
As a result, during the meal, Qiao Song could no longer receive any news from them. He wondered if they had gone somewhere else due to the disorder in the passage.
The delivery boy Chi Xiaoyao said that he would deliver food to Boss Qiao, but he disappeared while delivering the food. Qiao Song soon learned that this guy and the fortune teller Kong Li were also in the customs channel when they last appeared.
It seems that everyone has been randomly teleported to the northern game area, but not necessarily to Maotu.
Anyway, the north is in chaos now, so we might meet again soon.
It was two hours later when Qiao Song finished his work.
She discovered that being a zodiac sign was not completely a hands-off decision. Many major decisions, such as game rewards, planning for new areas, whether to expand territory or fight with neighbors, all required her approval.
Tong Yao and Tong Nan have already created a Chinese dungeon game called Zhazhi, and Hao Meili's company's wig business has great potential...
Dongdong——
Outside the goblin house on the hill, there was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting Qiao Song's thoughts.
The house was bustling with activity. The dwarf, who had almost finished preparing dinner, also noticed the noise outside. "Isn't there a blizzard outside? There are still players coming here at this time..."
The slug in the white hat was about to open the door, but Cinderella, who was holding a giant match in her hand, quickly stopped him and said, "Stay back, stay with the other dwarves, and don't get close to the door."
Snow White and Grandma Wolf, who were setting the table, also realized that something was wrong.
Especially the wolf grandmother who is also a mole.
There are actually caves everywhere near these houses on the hillside. If it weren't for her leading the way, few players would be able to get here.
Who would dare to travel in a snowstorm this late at night?
Unless, it is a strong fairy tale plot.
Once players gather together, this situation is likely to occur, where new NPC characters will constantly come to them and give them new identities, starting new stories.
Generally speaking, as long as the fairy tale book is not eliminated, new stories will appear around within 72 hours.
But didn’t Qiao Song unlock the plot about the crystal shoes and the prince as soon as he arrived?
"No way, it's been 72 hours already? How come a new fairy tale has been unlocked?"
The dwarf only complained a few words before being urged by Snow White to go back into the room.
"You guys don't have enough combat skills, try to hide first."
Cinderella, who is a kindergarten teacher, is holding a huge matchstick in her hand as if it were a hammer, and is very fierce. Next to her is the ferocious-looking wolf grandmother and Snow White, who is holding a piece of delicious apple pie in her hand.
The Trinity looks like a magical fairy tale.
But compared to Qiao Song, who had just finished a strawberry egg tart, still had a little red jam on his mouth, and was ready to pull the chainsaw in his hand, their lethality was still not enough.
Snow White winked and said: Boss, where is your sword?
Qiao Song: This is more convenient.
Grandma Wolf gave a thumbs up: What a prairie chainsaw maniac!
Fortunately, I was quite polite to this person after I got home.
Cinderella held up the matchstick with a serious expression: Can you please stop playing guessing games? There’s a big guy coming outside!
Her nerves were much more tense than the others, mainly because there were 12 dwarfs behind her, which passively stimulated her kindergarten teacher skills.
[Being a kindergarten teacher is really annoying, but when there are children around, I am like a superhero with three heads, six arms and one mind! ]
[In a closed space, once the number of children who need shelter exceeds 10, the combat power of a kindergarten teacher will be tripled, and the keen perception of danger will be tripled]
With the blessing of her identity as the little match girl, she could feel that there was a group of creatures outside the door in the snowy environment, not just one.
Their body temperatures were very low, and they looked like corpses walking upright. On the stormy night, they gently knocked on the door of the quiet and peaceful cottage.
"Hello, is anyone there? We are travelers passing by and encountered a snowstorm. We would like to stay here for one night."
The sentences without any punctuation marks sounded very strange, like the recitation of a robot AI, and it was not even smarter than the AI on the infinite highway.
The people in the room looked at each other, and Grandma Wolf was the first to shake her head. She mouthed and whispered, "I set at least dozens of traps, and they avoided them all. With this ability, they don't need to stay overnight."
You have to know that where there are players gathering, there will generally be various fairy tale book identities, which means that various rules are gathered together.
Moreover, if it was related to a fairy tale plot, they should have heard a system prompt the moment they knocked on the door, such as a princess visiting or a passerby from afar needing to stay overnight, just like Qiao Song before, but now they heard nothing.
Bai Xue put her hands down, bit her tongue and made a hissing sound: Is a snake coming?
In fact, everyone else had this feeling vaguely. Qiao Song had heard them mention before that the Snake players had been actively hunting down the key fairy tale characters on the Rabbit side.
It is said that after the fairy tale books were eliminated, the props left behind were too useful and the native residents of Rabbit were unwilling to leave them to them.
Bai Xue and the others didn’t bring it up before, but when Qiao Song looked at the uninvited guests outside, he seemed to understand. Can one get the fairy tale book by killing the key fairy tale characters?
She thought about it for a while and it seemed that she had to kill the entire book at once. Otherwise, if she only killed one to get the item, there would be a bug in the reward distribution.
If Grandma Wolf knew what she was thinking, she would probably be so scared that the hair on her tail would explode.
But now, the knocks on the door outside, which had started out polite, became heavier and heavier.
The mechanical voice outside the door turned from one to two, and finally several voices repeated the previous words: "We are passing travelers who encountered a snowstorm and would like to stay here for one night. We will not harm you. Can you open the door?"
The mechanical sounds overlapped with each other, accompanied by the howling wind outside, like a ghost story.
Only a sick man would open the door for these guys!
"No, stand back, they're coming in!"
Qiao Song was the first to notice the crack in the door. As soon as she shouted, Cinderella was the one who reacted the fastest. She quickly lit the match in her hand.
[The little match girl, every time a match is burned, it illuminates the fantasy safe zone. Please use your imagination according to your life experience! ]
When Grandma Wolf saw the match being lit, she was instantly frightened and her expression looked even more distressed than the invader who had come in.
"Why are you so impulsive to use this thing? Everyone, get inside! Another ghost is about to come out!"
Before Qiao Song could figure out the situation, Snow White grabbed him and brought him into the house, as if their companions were more terrifying than the snakes knocking on the door outside.
Soon, Qiao Song knew why.
Cinderella used the skills of a kindergarten teacher and the skills of the little match girl, and soon a group of mud-like shadows of children appeared behind her.
These children looked like ghosts crawling out of the underworld, with pale faces and screaming non-stop.
"Teacher, I'm hungry. I want to eat bubble gum."
"Teacher, Xiaomei stole my toy."
"Teacher, Xiaomei and Xiaoyu are fighting."
"Teacher, I peed my pants."
Dozens of children suddenly appeared, all surrounding one person and chattering dozens of non-repetitive demands.
Apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, there are fighting and pulling hair, occasionally mixed with shit, urine and farts, and all kinds of unrealistic lies that come out of their mouths.
Those who said these words were white-faced ghost children with only two black holes on their faces and a mouth. Blood was still oozing from their palms. Anyone surrounded by these children would easily suffer a mental breakdown.
But Cinderella was all smiles, calmly pointing to the players in robes and with snakeskin on their faces that suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Children, there are volunteers outside who want to play with you. Go find them."
Qiao Song finally understood. Is this the mental state of a kindergarten teacher?
Being a kindergarten teacher is bound to drive you crazy, unless you don't have to take care of the children yourself.
