Chapter 188 The Mica That Led Us the Wrong Way
Long-term side quests?
This is the first time such a mission has occurred.
Shen Jue also found it novel. She had done quite a few side quests and had gained some experience.
Generally speaking, the rewards for tasks like this are not bad.
But she's going to be quite busy at the Sky Arena from now on!
Let's address the needs of this mica first.
Let's see what it's trying to do by stopping her.
Seeing that Shen Jue was not leaving, the mica left only one tentacle loosely wrapped around Shen Jue's wrist.
It also used its other tentacles to gesture at Shen Jue in the air, as if trying to tell Shen Jue some message.
Mica's body language left Shen Jue completely bewildered.
Even though she was an expert in animal literature, she didn't understand what this mica was trying to express.
All that could be observed was an anxious emotion, which was expressed intermittently, making it impossible for Shen Jue to guess Yunmu's thoughts.
"What do you want to do?" Since you can't guess, just ask directly.
What if this mica could understand human speech and talk?
I don't know the details, but I'll ask first. Anyway, the creatures you encounter in this game system are all quite unique.
Blue mica: It can't speak...
The two, one person and one mica, remained frozen in place.
His movements seemed frozen in place, which was a little awkward.
After a short while, Mica realized that her actions could not take Shen Jue away.
Blue Mica finally released its tentacles that were binding Shen Jue.
It thought for a moment, then gestured again with its two tentacles, hoping that this time the human would understand what it was trying to say.
Mica hadn't expected that its proud gestures would be seen by Shen Jue as just random, haphazard movements.
There was absolutely no pattern to it, and Shen Jue stumbled upon this for the first time.
If we don't know what mica is trying to express, then all that's left is to ask.
From that question, Shen Jue knew that Yunmu could understand her.
If that's the case, then things will be much easier.
By following its body movements little by little, you can always figure out what it wants to do.
"You want me to come with you?"
Mica nodded, then made a big X.
It seems you guessed pretty much right, but not quite. Let me ask you some other questions.
"You want me to help you solve your problem?"
Mica nodded and then gestured again, linking the gestures she had made earlier with the current actions.
"You want me to come with you and help you solve the trouble you're facing?"
This time, Yunmu nodded in satisfaction; this player did have some understanding.
Shen Jue: With your scribbles, if I hadn't triggered a long-term side quest, who would have thought you were asking for help?
When asking for help, one should have the right attitude. Shen Jue suspected that if she wasn't strong enough, she might have been dragged away by Yun Mu.
How could she patiently and gently gesture to Shen Jue to convey her meaning?
"If I help you solve your problem, is there anything in return?"
When asking for help, one should offer a reward. Yunmu knew this, so she nodded, indicating that she would take Chen Jue to a treasure trove after the matter was settled.
After watching it gesture for a while, Shen Jue roughly understood. He then gestured for Yunmu to lead the way.
Seeing that Shen Jue had agreed, the mica's umbrella-shaped body trembled even faster.
Previously, the players it encountered would basically ignore it upon seeing it, but later it learned the skill of becoming persistent.
The previous player who got caught in it attacked it relentlessly, using all sorts of moves on it. It didn't feel any pain and just took all those hits.
After being beaten for a long time, Mica finally realized that it seemed to have been bullied all along.
Therefore, it decided that when it encountered the next player, it would swarm them with lightning speed.
If you harm it, the person it afflicts will also be forced to suffer harm.
Fortunately, the player it encountered was patient and did not attack directly.
Yunmu would walk a short distance and then stop to see if Shen Jue was following.
In order to complete the mission, Shen Jue would naturally not let this opportunity pass. In fact, she was thinking about how she could get something out of Yunmu.
The rewards from the game system are one thing, and what you get from Mica is another; the two should not be confused.
How can a reward she earned through her eloquence not be considered a skill?
As they moved forward, Shen Jue kept track of the route.
She wasn't familiar with the area yet, so she wanted to prevent the mica from taking the wrong route.
As it turned out, Shen Jue's act of memorizing the route was correct.
Currently, Yunmu has taken her on a long detour, only to return to the starting point.
"Ahem! You seem to have led us the wrong way."
Mica, who was excitedly leading the way, suddenly stopped.
He turned to Chen Jue and gestured: (Impossible!! The path I'm on is the right one!)
After spending the afternoon with Yunmu, Shen Jue had quite a bit of interaction with her and now understood the meaning behind her gestures.
"But we're back to square one! Look at that colorful cloud over there, doesn't it look familiar? Doesn't it resemble the first time we met?"
Yunmu looked at the colorful cloud that Shen Jue was pointing to.
Mica: ? ? ?
Did it really lead us astray?
