When Livia regained consciousness and opened her eyes, she saw Natalia shrouded in a layer of gray fog and a gray demon looking at her at the entrance of the cave.
It looked like less than a minute had passed since the confirmation.
Even though the gray demon demigod had deep ill will towards him, as a demigod he would not deceive himself on such a small matter.
Just as he was thinking this, a familiar prompt from the system suddenly sounded in his mind.
The task panel appeared before my eyes.
[A new main quest has been accepted] [Main quest: Origin of the World] The origin of this world is being stolen by gods and demigods from other worlds. In the long run, this world will be destroyed. As the origin of the world weakens again, the gods and demigods of this world come to you who have no origin and entrust you to solve the problem of those who are stealing the origin of the world.
ps: Of course, you can also choose to join the other party that steals the origin of the world, but the risk will be higher.
The first part of the mission: reach the capital of the Kingdom of Sava within three months.
(Remaining time: 89 days, 23 hours, 58 minutes) Reward: Attribute points × 2, reward from the gods.
Um?
It turned out to be the main quest.
Livia looked at the tasks that appeared in front of him. He was not too surprised. He had completed many system tasks and had his own guesses about the mechanism of the tasks. Logically speaking, there would definitely be tasks about such a big event as the origin of the world, but...
Why didn't it show up the first time...
You know, usually the tasks always appear at the first moment, but this time it appeared after a while.
Could it be because of those gods and demigods? Livia thought that the system tasks only appeared after leaving the realm of gods, and guesses came to her mind.
“Livia, how are you?”
The anxious words that suddenly came from the front interrupted his thoughts and made him put the ideas in his mind aside temporarily.
Natalia noticed that Livia had woken up the first time and asked quickly.
Feeling that Natalia was obviously on guard against him, Livia immediately understood what was going on. She was simply worried that he was being controlled by the gray demon. After all, he himself had previously believed that the gray light that the gray demon cast on him was a mental or soul technique.
"I'm fine."
Without much explanation, Livia walked to her side with the silver sword tightly grasped, ignoring the sword tip she moved towards herself, and looked at the gray monster at the entrance of the cave.
Although he still appeared very solemn, as if facing a formidable enemy, he was not worried at all that the gray monster would attack them. After all, he already knew that this gray monster was just a tractor sent by the gray monster demigod to pull his soul into the so-called realm of gods. Now that the matter was over, it would naturally leave.
Just as Natalia was still wary of approaching Livia, she was surprised that the gray monster at the entrance of the cave suddenly turned around and disappeared into a gray mist.
this……
Although she knew the reason, Livia still pretended to be surprised and puzzled. After all, it was better not to let them know about the gods and the origin of this world, otherwise it would cause a lot of trouble.
Although the gray monster at the cave entrance seemed to have left, the people in the cave were still alert to the entrance. Who knew what tricks the gray monster was trying to play.
Livia, who knew everything, had no choice but to pretend to be alert, but he didn't expect that this would make Natalia next to him relax her guard against him.
In fact, Natalia thought that with the strength of the gray demon, there was no need for her to do anything fancy to kill them. Since Livia did not show any abnormality, there was no need for her to be on guard all the time. Maybe the light before was just like the gray fog that was shrouding her and was slowly dispersing, a temporary curse or a mental attack.
Livia felt that the gray mist on Natalia beside her had almost dissipated, and estimated that the time was about right, so she pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Did the gray demon leave?"
His words attracted the attention of Natalia beside him and Honasan who was walking towards him after recovering from his weak state.
Um?
Seeing them looking at her in confusion, Livia controlled her expression and didn't show any strangeness. She looked outside the cave with a serious look and said with some certainty: "I felt that the gray monster left very quickly and has already left my perception range."
Livia was not lying. The gray demon did leave as expected. After all, it was only carrying out the orders of its demigod self. After completing the orders, would it stay here and watch them?
"are you sure?"
Natalia frowned and asked solemnly.
Although she still trusted Livia's perception, she still had to confirm matters concerning her safety.
Livia was silent for a while, then nodded seriously.
Seeing this, Natalia put down her weapon and breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had just planned to fight to the death, who would want to die if they could live?
Upon seeing this, Honasan also put away his knight's sword. Since Livia, who had the strongest perception, said so, and Lady Natalia also believed it, there was no point for him, a weak extraordinary being who was seriously injured, to remain on guard.
"There is no danger around here. It may be because of the aura of the gray demon that the beasts and monsters dare not approach this area."
Livia also put the silver sword back into the damaged scabbard behind her, and added.
Caius and the others in the cave also breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, they, the ordinary people, were the most nervous. When faced with a powerful supernatural creature like the gray monster, they had almost no ability to resist. Even if they tried their best, they might not be able to cause any harm to the gray monster with such strange abilities.
What was unexpected but reasonable to Livia was that Natalia recovered very quickly, as if the gray demon had never appeared before, and they began to pack up their equipment quickly.
"I will increase your compensation after this time, so please help collect the alchemical materials you need. Here are the appearance and location of the remaining alchemical materials that need to be collected."
Natalia stood in front of everyone and spoke solemnly, while Dennis beside her took a stack of precious papers and distributed them to everyone, even Livia got a few.
After a quick look, I found that most of the plants were unfamiliar and I had never seen before.
Wait, this is...
Lanogreen grass and Northtrick wall grass?
Livia recognized the two plants on the paper as the two alchemical materials in the wizard game.
Although the pictures on the paper had no colors, the descriptions next to the pictures reminded him of the colors and some precautions. After becoming a witcher, his memory was very good. Things from his childhood could come to mind as soon as he thought about them. After seeing these two familiar pictures, he recognized them immediately. After all, he was still playing The Witcher 3 before traveling through time.
