[Mission Clues: Star Trail]
Star trails...
The Mermaid King stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at Jiang Yaoqing with a half-smile.
The light of the crystal coffin gradually dimmed, and a huge machine sound came from behind Jiang Yaoqing.
It was the sound of walls falling.
Jiang Yaoqing looked back, and the huge wall behind her began to move down, with gravel splashing everywhere.
"Little mermaid," the Mermaid King said in a steady voice, "although I don't know how you dug a big hole in my royal city..."
"But I can tell you."
"Everything is destined."
Jiang Yaoqing looked at the stone wall that was gradually opening in front of her, and her heart skipped a beat.
He knew something was wrong.
According to common sense, if the Mermaid King's plan is affected, he should try his best to stop himself.
But not only did he not stop it, but he watched helplessly as he completed all of this.
And this crystal coffin...
It was my own negligence.
If the crystal coffin could really stop the Mermaid King's plan, why would he place the crystal coffin in the palace and near the exorcism ceremony?
What is he planning?
but……
Jiang Yaoqing glanced at the crystal coffin with thorns growing out of it.
This is very contradictory.
Because the crystal coffin can indeed keep Sith's soul alive.
So to some extent, the sacrifice should fail.
The wall rose completely, and the burning sensation in the lower abdomen became more obvious.
[Current task completion progress: 85%]
The progress bar suddenly increased by a large amount.
[Current survival time remaining: 2 hours]
Everything is doomed...
The Mermaid King swam to her side, and Jiang Yaoqing subconsciously took a step back to avoid the Mermaid King's movements.
so……
When I first got married, it was a trap in itself.
so……
Jiang Yaoqing raised her eyes, and a cold light flashed in her amber pupils.
Therefore, there was more than one Sisili sacrificed. The other one is myself.
[Current task completion progress: 90%]
——
"What is this place?"
Lu Xingye's voice was the first to break the silence.
Jiang Yubai's flashlight flickered, and the moment he met a huge pupil, his face turned pale, and he half-knelt on the ground with a muffled groan.
"Close your eyes."
Hearing the sound of declining mental strength, Jiang Yubai's eyes darkened, and the rose spear in his hand barely supported the ground to steady himself.
"Don't look directly at the things inside, otherwise you will lose your mental power."
Lu Xingye and Xiao Shi closed their eyes obediently.
"I just seemed to see the inscriptions on the stone tablet here."
Lu Xingye closed his eyes and said, "Call Laleye."
——
Raleye City.
Rows and rows of soldiers gathered behind the Mermaid King, holding hard weapons in their hands and standing neatly behind the Mermaid King.
Jiang Yaoqing couldn't see what was behind the wall, but she felt that her lower abdomen was burning so much that she was a little confused.
If you are also a part of the sacrifice...
So how to break the situation?
How can they obtain their own souls and make themselves sacrifices?
Jiang Yaoqing turned on her system bracelet.
I still have one draw reward and one prop left that I haven’t checked yet.
Now, it seems that I am trapped in a siege that I can never get out of. It is difficult to enter and it is also difficult to retreat.
All the clues seem so clear and visible, but also seem elusive.
"Great Lord of R'lyeh, I am your most sincere believer."
"Please allow me to offer you the meager sacrifice to welcome your recovery——"
"The entire mermaid city-state will be your world——"
"We will always believe in our Lord."
The Mermaid King and his soldiers knelt on the ground devoutly, worshiping toward the dark hollow.
Jiang Yaoqing did not hesitate.
I don't have much time left.
【Do you want to start drawing? 】
【whether】
Jiang Yaoqing chose [Yes].
A stream of data flashed before my eyes, and along with the Mermaid King's prayer, it echoed throughout the crystal coffin cave.

Jiang Yaoqing composed her expression.
My mind began to integrate the clues I had gained so far.
[He is dormant in the deep sea, He is the supreme sacrifice, He is waiting for the opportunity to move]
【Star Track】
As well as various synchronized clues that came from Jiang Yubai and the others before.
With her brain running rapidly, Jiang Yaoqing was thinking about how she could break the situation.
The system will definitely leave a loophole for itself to break the situation, but I just didn't find it.
What exactly went wrong...
"Ph'nglUi mglW'nafh CthUlhU R'lyeh Wgah'nagl fhtagn"
"In the eternal mansion-R'lyeh, the sleeping Cthulhu awaits you in your dreams.[1]"
The Mermaid King murmured.
Cthulhu...
Jiang Yaoqing looked confused...
What exactly is Cthulhu?
This creature has never been recorded in the history of Blue Star, and I have never heard of it.
Star trails, as the name suggests, are the orbits of stars.
Between the awakening of Cthulhu and the star path...
Is there any connection?
[Warm reminder, your current survival time is only 1 hour left]
The flow of time speeds up.
The Mermaid King's prayer was still going on, and Jiang Yaoqing looked intently at the black hole in front of her.
The heart was beating in the chest.
——
"There's only one hour left, and we're still confused now." Jiang Yubai felt irritable for no reason, and turned off all the flashlights. Out of sight, out of mind, his mental strength would not drop too fast.
"It's okay, brother." Lu Xingye's dark green pupils turned into vertical ones, and he looked around at everything in the secret room as his mental power continued to decline.
"We will definitely be able to find key clues to help Brother Yao Qing." Lu Xingye stepped forward and reached out to touch the runes on the wall.
"While we don't know who Cthulhu is, we can deduce how to prevent his awakening."
"How to infer?"
"According to the runes on the wall."
Lu Xingye replied.
Xiao Shi stood on tiptoes, frowned and said thoughtfully, "I have a reasonable guess."
"The secret room we are in now has actually been processed and transformed by later generations."
"I suspect that this secret room was originally the site of No. 007 Asylum, but an accident occurred during the construction process, and some people fell into the hole. Like us, we discovered this building that does not belong to Blue Star. and words.”
"Do you still remember the English part on the previous mural?"
Jiang Yubai and Lu Xingye nodded.
"Those English words are obviously incompatible with the ancient writings on the wall. They should have been left by later generations."
A flash of purple flashed in Xiao Shi's eyes, and his fingers gently rested on the wall.
"So, Cthulhu actually woke up once a long, long time ago, but was interrupted."
"As long as we find the words on this wall that were left by later generations and light them up, we can send a message to Jiang Yaoqing."
