Yueya remembered that there was kelp in the salad that Hongcha had. He was a little worried, so he asked the round-faced boy before leaving: "Do you still have your seasickness medicine?"
When the attack occurred on the ferry, these NPCs were not present. If they did not take seasickness pills, they can ask for one for Hongcha as a backup. Seasickness pills are just a name, and the real purpose of the pill is to treat the various symptoms caused by "food poisoning".
Unfortunately, the round-faced boy shook his head: "I was feeling uncomfortable on the boat, so I ate it."
Another NPC rubbed his stomach and looked pale: "The hallucinations caused by seasickness are so terrible. Fortunately, the professor gave me seasickness medicine in advance."
The students from the Academy of Fine Arts said that they were out of seasickness medicine. Yue Ya asked the professor, and he said that they had all been distributed before boarding the ferry and he had no spare medicine.
The professor touched his chin and said, "We don't need to take a boat anytime soon. What do you want seasickness medicine for? Is there any side effect?"
Yue Ya pursed her lips and said, "It's okay, I'll think of another way."
"Are you suffering from seasickness?" The girl working at the front desk next to me interrupted, "We have a secret recipe on our island that can relieve the symptoms of seasickness. Do you want to hear it?"
Yueya raised an eyebrow: "Tell me about it."
"Have you seen the flowers in front of our shop? They are called God's Blood Flower. Legend has it that the god was once injured while protecting the island. Her blood dripped onto the ground, and beautiful flowers grew wherever it touched. This flower carries the blood of the god. Unlike ordinary flowers, human blood dripped onto the petals and will be absorbed by them in less than a second." The girl at the front desk paused and said, "The God's Blood Flower that is fused with human blood has a miraculous effect of calming the nerves. It can not only treat the symptoms of seasickness, but also indigestion and stomachache."
Hongcha asked Yueya quietly, "Why would she be so kind to tell us this method? Is there a trick?"
"We can just ask a few passers-by and find out whether the effect of the God Blood Flower is real or not. There is no need for her to lie to us on this point. Maybe she is lying somewhere else." Yue Ya thought for a while and said, "Let's pick some flowers first. If something unexpected happens, we will be cut open by the monster if we don't use this method."
Hongcha imagined the scene and shuddered: "Okay, pick the flowers."
Yue Ya suggested that all players who had eaten the cold dishes pick a God Blood Flower as a backup. The leather jacket man looked at him and shook his head: "You are making a fuss. We finally had a meal. Can you please stop creating anxiety?"
Yue Ya looked him straight in the eyes, her light-colored pupils even showing a hint of smile: "Can you please shut up?"
Leather jacket man: “…”
Yue Ya had never paid attention to his provocations before. He was caught off guard and was stunned.
After Yueya got angry, she left. Hongcha and Zhuang Yan couldn't help laughing, and the leather jacket man's face turned green. But now that everyone had left, he had already lost the opportunity to retort, and would only make people laugh. He had no choice but to swallow his anger.
[Hahaha, the host said what I was thinking. I have long wanted the leather jacket guy to shut up. He is so sarcastic every day. He is really annoying.]
[Yuezi is so lazy that he can't help but respond to her. You can imagine how annoying this leather jacket guy is]
[The leather jacket guy also warned other players not to delay the mission. I think he is the most unreliable.]
The Evil Dragon Cave and the Dense Forest are in the same direction, and the two teams plan to travel together.
Zhuang Yan watched Yueya and Hongcha picking the sacred blood flowers and suddenly changed his mind: "I don't trust the guy in the leather jacket. The black-clad player is not in good condition either. I will stay and do the task of cleaning the altar with them."
Yueya thought of Feifei's reaction to the man in leather jacket and lowered her voice: "I suspect the man in leather jacket has some ominous power. He is targeting us. Are you sure you want to go?"
"I have the same intuition as you, which is why we have to go. If he does something wrong during the mission, we may not have enough time to make up for it." Zhuang Yan was very firm. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know my limits."
Zhuang Yan was cautious and prudent, so Yue Ya was naturally relieved: "Be careful and contact us in time."
Zhuang Yan: "You guys should be careful too."
The three teams separated at this point. With the guidance of the pointer, Yue Ya successfully found the dense forest. As the name suggests, this forest is very dense and primitive. There are only some paths walked by humans and animals. There are lush and tangled vines everywhere. The further you go in, the more towering trees there are.
When they came to a fork in the road, Yueya and Hongcha compared their pointers. The two pointers pointed to different intersections. Yueya said, "Let's go separately."
Hongcha nodded, and the pointer on her hand suddenly began to shake violently. Yueya saw that the blood vessels on her wrist were swollen and throbbing under the thin skin, as if they would break through the skin at any time.
"Ahhhh!" Hongcha groaned in pain and fell to the ground holding her stomach. She opened her mouth wide and clumps of black hair came out of her mouth. These hairs had their own consciousness and they spread along Hongcha's body and rushed towards the nearby players.
These strange black hairs came at him fiercely, and the sight of Red Tea rolling on the ground was very scary, so the players immediately retreated.
The situation I was worried about still occurred!
"Sister!" Xuecha opened her hands and formed a mark. Frost condensed and froze the hair that spread outwards.
Yue Ya took out the divine blood flower, cut his fingertips and let the blood drip on the petals. The blood merged into the petals and disappeared without a trace. Yue Ya knelt down and put the divine blood flower into Hongcha's mouth.
He didn't even frown when his fingertips touched the wet and cold hair.
Xuecha stepped forward, ignoring the black hair tangled around her arms, and pushed the divine blood flower down Hongcha's throat, tears welling up in her eyes: "Sister, swallow the divine blood flower!"
Hongcha was in pain, but he could hear her words and swallowed by will.
All the black hair disappeared, and the frost on the body also dissipated. Hongcha turned his head and spat out a pool of black liquid: "It hurts so much..."
Xuecha slumped to the ground and realized that she was also covered in cold sweats like Hongcha.
[I feel sorry for Sister Hongcha, rub her belly]
[The host is so reliable. Fortunately, he prepared in advance and responded quickly.]
[Whose hair is this kelp? It’s scarier than an octopus tentacle]
Yueya treated Hongcha. The fatigue and sleepiness accumulated throughout the day suddenly came up, and he shook his head to stay awake.
I don’t know what she saw, but Xuecha’s face changed and she pushed him away: “Be careful!”
A whirlwind rushed out from Xuecha's palm. Yueya felt half of his face numbed by the wind and woke up completely.
He looked back and saw a whirlwind wrapped around a statue holding a dagger. Part of its head was missing, and its hair and lower body had turned into soft vines connected to the ground. Its stone eyes stared at Yue Ya motionlessly.
If Xuecha hadn't pushed it away, the dagger in the statue's hand might have stabbed into Yueya's back.
Yue Ya frowned, thinking that he seemed to have seen this statue somewhere.
He quickly remembered: "I saw this statue at the pier, and it has been following us ever since."
Xuecha controlled the whirlwind and gritted her teeth: "Our intuition was right, but it followed us all the way without showing up, why did it attack here?"
Cracks appeared on the face of the statue, and lime fell off, revealing dry skin and blood-red fleshy eyeballs. Yue Ya followed its greedy gaze and saw his own fingers still covered in blood.
He immediately healed the wound and wiped off the blood: "It's the blood. It was stimulated by the smell of blood. The reason why the receptionist told us the treatment method so readily is because she knew that Hongcha would definitely get sick, and she also knew that the statue was following us. As long as I cut my skin, the statue would attack."
"She wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Yue Ya clapped his hands, and two puppets appeared behind the statue, attacking it while it was controlled by the whirlwind. Nearly half of the lime on the statue fell off, and its limbs became soft. The vines absorbed the power of the land, and its body suddenly grew several times larger.
The vines entangled the two puppets and strangled them fiercely!
This time the puppet was shattered more thoroughly, and Yue Ya suffered the backlash, with a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his lips.
The huge statue became more excited, its eyes glowed red with desire, and it stretched out its huge hand towards Yue Ya.
Hongcha struggled to stand up, shaking off the blood-red soul-locking rope that was wrapped around the statue's palm: "You've done me a favor, and you risked your life for it... I can't let it hurt you."
Xuecha put her hands together, and a more complex purple light mark appeared in the air. She opened her palm and pushed forward: "Freeze."
The struggling statue was frozen in the snow and ice, like a huge ice sculpture.
They breathed a sigh of relief.
Black Tea said in a hoarse voice: "I will try to seduce its soul."
As soon as he finished speaking, the thick ice on the statue began to crack, vines sprouted from underneath, and ice cubes fell to the ground, quickly turning into pools of dirty blood.
The statue smiled sinisterly, grasped Hongcha's soul-locking rope with one hand, and raised the dagger towards Yueya.
"Ouch!" Feifei rushed to the statue's shoulder like lightning, bit its shoulder viciously, and tried his best to suck away its negative energy.
The statue wailed, and its huge body shrank by one third.
The dagger that was originally pointed at Yue Ya turned towards Fei Fei.
Feifei didn’t know that danger was approaching, or maybe he knew, but he just wanted to protect his master, so he held on to the statue tightly and didn’t move.
"Fei Fei!" Yue Ya clenched his fists, his indifferent eyes filled with hostility.
The weak cannot protect anything! Yue Ya rushed forward with his bare hands, his horns and elf ears appeared at the same time, and a powerful aura burst out from his body. The terrifying pressure brought by it suppressed the statue so that it could not move.
Yue Ya snatched the dagger from the statue's hand, cut off its palm, and severed all the vines connecting it to the ground.
"Disappear." Yue Ya stabbed the dagger into the statue's body, watching it scream, twist and struggle, and finally turn into a pile of ashes.
The dagger fell and stuck on top of the ashes, like its tombstone.
Yueya hugged Feifei and rested his forehead against it: "It's okay."
Yueya's body was filled with a cool and strange fragrance. Feifei took a deep breath and said, "Meow~Hiccup~"
[I heard Feifei burp. It seems that although it was thrilling just now, the child was full.]
[Fei Fei is awesome! It must be the power of mutual protection that allowed the anchor to break through. This move just now was very cool]
[I touched the cat’s head and my eyes were a little wet when I realized it. Feifei really loves his owner]
Yue Ya's spiritual energy drifted everywhere, and nearby plants grew wildly. Vines covered the winding paths and bloomed large, colorful flowers.
The sound of footsteps was heard in the woods. Yue Ya looked to the side and saw that his scent attracted a group of tall deer.
A tiger with huge teeth slowly approached, and the deer panicked and made way for it.
The tiger walked up to Yueya, lowered his head, and rubbed his calves. This posture was exactly the same as Feifei's when he usually asked for caressing.
“…”
Yue Ya had no mood to pet the big cat now. He dismissed the animals, gathered his spiritual energy, and pulled out the dagger from the ashes.
A palm-sized stone tablet was revealed under the collapsed ashes.
This statue carries clues. It is not an ordinary NPC. No wonder it is so difficult to defeat.
