Chapter 60 Transparent Teeth
hint
If something is invisible, isn't it transparent?
Are there any transparent monsters in this game?
Just when Chi Dong was confused, Bu Qianli walked straight towards the cave where the boss came out. Seeing that Chi Dong did not react, Lin Jie grabbed the mouse and controlled the character to follow in.
What they didn't expect was that the seemingly ordinary cave was actually a different world. Chi Dong and Lin Jie couldn't help but look at each other, with surprise in their eyes.
Seeing that Bu Qianli was about to go out of sight, Lin Jie hurriedly pressed the W key to follow. They passed through one waterfall after another and didn't know how far they had walked until the waterfall disappeared. The next moment, what came into view was rows of fangs and saw teeth. Fortunately, Chi Dong and Lin Jie did not have claustrophobia, otherwise they would definitely not be able to stand this scene.
Even so, Lin Jie couldn't help shaking his body, touching his goosebumped hands, and complained: "This plan is really disgusting. Once this map is released, it will definitely be criticized."
Chi Dong nodded, agreeing with what he said. Although he was not a person with trypophobia, he still got goosebumps all over his body when he suddenly saw the densely packed, mountain-like white tooth-like objects.
However, Bu Qianli, who was walking in front of them, did not stop. He went straight to one of the teeth with a bumpy surface and yellow-black color without hesitation. He walked close to it, stopped and made an observation gesture, as if he was looking for something.
Chi Dong wanted to help, and just as he put his hands on the keyboard, he heard his voice through the earphones. Lin Jie, who was sitting next to him, was curious and wanted to listen, so he looked at Chi Dong and wanted him to unplug the earphones and play the music out loud so that they could listen together.
Chi Dong couldn't persuade him, so he finally unplugged his headphones obediently. The next moment, Bu Qianli's steady and attractive voice could be heard in the bright and spacious dormitory.
"Dongdong, come here."
Chi Dong was about to type a response, but Lin Jie got there first, pulled over the keyboard and clicked back with a cheerful tone, unlike Chi Dong's usual expression.
[Team] Dongdong hid: Here I come, here I come, Master.
"Boss!" Chi Dong, whose keyboard was inexplicably snatched away, looked at him helplessly.
"Oh, don't worry. My reply is the same as your reply. The other party won't know about it anyway." Lin Jie looked confident, and he was sure that Bu Qianli would not be able to guess who was replying to him.
However, what they didn't know was that Bu Qianli looked at the words that appeared above the screen, was stunned for a moment, then took a close look at the team and the YY channel column, as if he had confirmed something, then frowned tightly, and the corners of his mouth that were originally upturned suddenly disappeared.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird. Seeing that the person on the other side didn't say anything, Chi Dong and Lin Jie suspected that he was offline. Chi Dong grabbed the keyboard back and prepared to input, but the next second he heard Bu Qianli ask in a cold tone.
"You are not Dongdong, who are you?"
They never expected that Bu Qianli could actually detect it. Chi Dong and Lin Jie looked at each other in surprise, their eyes full of disbelief.
Damn, how did he know?
"Speak up, who are you? Where is Dongdong?" Bu Qianli's voice was as cold as ice.
Seeing this, Chi Dong didn't dare let Lin Jie touch the keyboard anymore, and hurriedly tapped on the keyboard to explain.
[Channel] Dongdong hid: Master, it’s me. I was thirsty just now and went to get some water. My roommate replied to the message for me. What happened?
Bu Qianli glanced at the newly popped up text and was silent for a moment. Then he was sure that it was Dongdong who hid himself. His tone suddenly softened a bit, "It's okay, I thought your account was hacked."
"Come to these coordinates (255, 766), stand still, and follow my instructions."
[Channel] Dongdong hides: OK.
Chi Dong flew quickly to the coordinates, and after standing in position, Bu Qianli took out a pair of scissors and cut straight at the edge of the yellow-black tooth in front of him, which emitted a foul smell from time to time.
On the other side, Chi Dong and Lin Jie stared at the screen blankly for a long time, but still couldn't tell what he had edited.
But at the moment he cut it, a sharp scream came from the computer, as if something was cut by Bu Qianli, but they couldn't see it.
Lin Jie scratched his head, somewhat confused by Bu Qianli's actions, and asked in confusion, "What are you doing, Master? Are you trimming my teeth?"
Chidong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
"But you know what, this pair of scissors can only cut transparent things, which is quite interesting." Lin Jie clicked on the prop description, his tone slightly excited, "By the way, has "Heroes" released so many interesting props now? When I have more free time, I will also go back to play."
A few months ago, in order to pursue a girl, Lin Jie specially got everyone in the dormitory to play together. However, when his pursuit failed, he turned around and made excuses that the game was not fun and he was too busy, so he left Chi Dong and the others and gave up playing the game.
So during that time, he was just picking up girls and didn't play the game seriously, so he couldn't experience the fun of the game.
Lin Jie told Chi Dong that the student union and clubs were changing terms recently, and he would be busy for a while, so Chi Dong would have time to help him with daily tasks and accumulate some credibility points. After a few days when the club work was done, he would download the game again.
Seeing that Lin Jie looked serious and didn't seem to be joking, Chi Dong readily agreed. Anyway, he usually opened extra accounts for daily tasks, so this was a piece of cake for him.
While the two were talking, Bu Qianli had already cut off layer after layer of something on the other side. This thing was attached to the teeth and appeared transparent. However, after it was cut with scissors, in less than two minutes, white shells slowly appeared on the ground.
Before long, more and more shells were cut, almost piling up to the calves of the game character. However, Bu Qianli seemed not to notice and continued to cut.
Chi Dong had never thought that this seemingly insignificant tooth could actually make the things it cut bigger. Seeing that Bu Qianli was cutting slower and slower, he thought that he had encountered some difficulties, so he controlled the character to go forward to help. However, he was stopped by Bu Qianli in a loud voice before he could take two steps.
"Don't move. If you move, the number of shells will be wrong." Bu Qianli said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, it will be over soon."
Hearing what he said, Chi Dong didn't dare to move anymore and stayed where he was obediently. After a few minutes, the more shells piled on the ground, the smaller the tooth area became. Gradually, two figures, one big and one small, slowly appeared on the surface of the teeth from top to bottom.
"Oh my god, there's someone inside." Lin Jie widened his eyes and looked at the game screen in shock.
Not to mention him, even Chi Dong was surprised. After they defeated the boss, the task bar refreshed and reminded them that they had only completed one of the tasks, and the other task, "rescue the wife and children of the Lord of Hongyu City," was shown as unfinished.
When Chi Dong saw this scene, he remembered that the humanoid monster named A Liao had said "lips and teeth with double flowers, hiding in the heart of the world, blind in both eyes" before he was killed. So this was what he meant.
No wonder he couldn't find it no matter how hard he looked, it turned out that the NPC was hidden here.
The person who designed this mission is such a jerk! If it were someone else, they would definitely not be able to guess the secret and thus would not be able to find the NPC.
But why does this place look so familiar? It seems like I have seen it somewhere before. Chi Dong recalled the path he took when he came back, but at that time their screens were all black and they could not see the surrounding environment, so he was not sure if it was the place he thought it was.
Soon, the two NPCs were rescued by Bu Qianli. After untying the shackles that trapped the two people, Bu Qianli called Chi Dong to his side in a low voice.
"Dongdong, come here."
Chi Dong did not dare to hesitate. He lightly pressed the space bar and flew over with a few quick moves. Just as he landed next to Bu Qianli, the mission reminder sounded.
[System] The player killed one person every ten steps and hid Dongdong to successfully rescue the long-missing wife of the city lord and the young city lord, gaining the trust and appreciation of the city lord.
[System] The favorability of the city lord +30.
The only mission reward besides favorability is experience. The rest of the rewards have to be claimed at the City Lord's Mansion.
The mission was accomplished, and the mother and son disappeared on the spot after finishing the plot. When everything returned to normal, Chi Dong asked Bu Qianli questions.
[Channel] Dongdong hid: Master, why didn’t you let me go over to help you just now?
"You have been eroded by Red Flower. Once you come over, all the Fangs nearby will be awakened. When they start to attack, the trapped NPCs will be moved to other places."
Bu Qianli explained calmly. If anyone else had asked, he might not have answered. But the person who asked was Chi Dong, with whom he had just formed a chivalrous bond, so he had no choice but to tell the truth.
Hearing this, Chi Dong suddenly realized what was going on. Lin Jie, who was sitting next to him, had no idea what the two were talking about. He came back late and did not see the scene when Chi Dong passed through the cave before.
[Channel] Dongdong hides: So that's how it is. I almost made a big mistake. I'm really sorry.
"Don't apologize. It doesn't matter if you made a mistake. You'll still be fine."
Bu Qianli smiled softly, and her magnetic laughter came through the computer and echoed in the dormitory. Even Lin Jie, who considered himself a straight man, couldn't help but tremble. "This voice is quite nice. If you become a voice actor, you will definitely gain a lot of little fans."
Chi Dong felt the same way and nodded to show his agreement. If he didn't already have someone he liked, he would have been intoxicated by that magnetic voice if he listened to it for too long.
Now that the mission is completed, the mission column automatically refreshes and urges the two to go to the City Lord's Mansion to claim their rewards and meet the City Lord. Chi Dong guessed that this meeting with the City Lord should be the prelude to the next round of missions.
He didn't know whether Bu Qianli was going to the City Lord's Mansion right now. He switched back to the game interface and stopped communicating through the YY channel. It was too troublesome.
Anyway, the mission has been completed, and communicating in the game is more convenient than on the YY channel.
[Team] Dongdong hides: Are we going to Hongyu City now?
Bu Qianli said calmly: "Yes."
[Team] Dongdong hid: Okay, let’s set off now.
"No hurry, I'll take you somewhere first." Bu Qianli was not in a hurry to leave this place immediately, but asked Chi Dong to follow him and walked in the direction they came from.
