In the "Thousand Islands" plot of the previous life, the players still focused on fighting against the Fallen Abyss, but this time it was not the Water God who was corroded by the Fallen Abyss, but... the Water God's dependents.

It was a sacrificial beast believed by the people of "Thousand Islands", the most powerful "Shikigami" monster, a giant snake in the sea with several heads and a body over a hundred meters long.

Liao Zixuan clearly remembers that the scene map of the final boss battle was in a copy called "Abyss", and it was here that the wreckage of the Astologis appeared.

only...

In addition, what left an impression on Liao Zixuan about this copy was that he received a strange sparring order here.

Liao Zixuan has mentioned several times before that he has a friend in the "witch" profession, and this is where their acquaintance began.

At that time, Liao Zixuan was exploring the Abyssal Sea map. As a professional high-level player, his progress was naturally far ahead of others, and he had penetrated deep into the innermost core.

As a result, because the game content has not been updated to this point and there is a lack of key props, Liao Zixuan finally fell into the trap. Some teleportation magic was triggered. When he came to his senses, the map changed and he was in a completely dark and unfamiliar area.

This is normal in "Abyss". After all, it is on the "Map of the Underworld" ranked by players.

Abyssal sea, abyssal sea, sea like an abyss, sea below the abyss.

Normally in this situation, one could only secretly be unlucky and choose to commit suicide and return to the teleportation point. However, unexpectedly, it seemed that he was not the only unlucky person to be tricked. Liao Zixuan was actually here and met another female player.

At that time, the female player was very withdrawn and taciturn. Compared to him, she was in a worse state. She seemed to be trapped in a trap.

I won’t go into details about what happened next. With good intentions, Liao Zixuan introduced his business to the female player and gave her a 30% discount for her pity.

Now that I think about it, I was really at a loss. Liao Zixuan spent almost a whole day and solved countless puzzles in the underworld before he rescued this unlucky guy who was sealed in a trap.

After the other party chose to pay with game props, he didn't even say a word of thanks, and walked away without saying a word.

Until the end, when the players killed the Shikigami Orochi who was corrupted by the Fallen Abyss, broke into the temple, and obtained the "Chain of the Water God" to purify the ocean polluted by the Fallen Abyss, the plot of Thousand Islands came to an end.

But then again...

Players at that time, including Liao Zixuan, were curious and puzzled as to why the "Chain of the Water God" was quietly placed in the altar of Yuanhai.

This necklace was originally in the hands of Harvey in the Flame Territory. The unsealed Concentration Necklace was transferred to Damir's hands after the Flame Territory was destroyed. As a token, he went to the Water God to ask for rescue.

Under the main plot, there are obviously too many unsaid inside stories hidden, waiting for players to explore later.

But this time, the dynamics of the Water God's Chain were firmly controlled by themselves. After all, this extremely critical version of the prop was in their hands.

It can't be lost in Yuanhai Temple this time, right?

wrong.

Having said that, why did he suddenly think of these old things? Shouldn't he be a little wolf cub now and sleep with An?

Wait...sleep?

Shouldn't he stay by Ann's side while she sleeps?

After realizing this, Liao Zixuan seemed to wake up from a dream, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Oops!

Because of the three days of intense mental stress and non-stop sleep, coupled with the fact that An's arms were really comfortable and he had the same inexplicable sense of security as the little girl, the little wolf cub accidentally fell asleep too!

I don't know how long I slept. After getting up, Liao Zixuan quickly looked around, but An was nowhere to be seen.

broken.

While the little wolf cub secretly complained about his laziness, he began to look for An in the coolie's activity area in the cabin.

Today is the last day, don't have any problems at this juncture.

After searching for it, they still didn't find it. This can only mean that An was called out by the supervisor and went to work on the third floor to do hard work.

The little wolf cub hurriedly left the bottom of the cabin.

But as soon as he returned to the top, the light from the afternoon sunset made the little wolf cub pause. He suppressed the idea of ​​​​looking for An for a while, ran to the top deck, and looked into the distance.

Within the field of vision, there is still the endless sea, and there is no shadow of any island.

this...

Logically speaking, the Astorogis should be able to see the coastline from a distance even if this time has not yet arrived.

Next, Liao Zixuan came to the passenger cabin corridor on the second floor. As soon as he entered, the little wolf cub clearly felt a depressing atmosphere. Although it was not obvious on the faces of many passengers, they were more or less full of... There was a worried expression.

After listening to the conversation among the passengers, the little wolf cub knew the reason for everything.

Sailing... something went wrong.

This is an official statement from Luzi, the absolute leader on the ship. The specific reason is not stated, but the Astorogis's originally planned arrival time at the Thousand Islands will be postponed.

The only thing that made the little wolf cub breathe a sigh of relief was that he learned from the passengers that although Luzi didn't say how long the delay would be, he still guaranteed that he would arrive at Qiandao by tomorrow morning at the latest.

After feeling a little more at ease, the little wolf cub came to the door of Vivian's room. The door was still tightly closed. It could be sensed that the little girl was staying inside well, and everything on Vivian's panel was normal.

After doing all this, the little wolf cub set off again and continued to look for An's figure on the boat.

There are none on the deck, nor in the corridors on the cabin level.

The only place left is the restaurant on the first floor.

There are not many passengers at this point, and with the announcement of delay, there are probably not many who have appetite. On the contrary, the samurai on the ship don't seem to be too worried about this. It is more likely that because they are approaching, they behave far more than The first two days were loose, with several people gathering together to eat, drink, chat and brag.

There was one table among them, and the little wolf cub quickly recognized it. It should be the overseer samurai responsible for managing the coolies, because the one in the middle who was drunkenly and loudly was the one who led the team in the previous two times.

Thinking of this person's attitude towards An during the two experiences, the little wolf cub felt a burst of fire in his heart. He originally wanted to leave quickly, otherwise he would really be tempted to teach him a lesson, but in the end, the little wolf cub had no choice but to leave. Stopped.

because...

"Well, you said there are so many fools these days. Do you still remember the bandage weirdo I mentioned to you two days ago who insisted on joining the ship as a coolie and even paid me to bribe me?"

"I have an impression. We were saying at the time, Ichiro, you are such a bad boy. People are willing to work as coolies just to get on this ship. You also deliberately make things difficult for others and insist on charging some favors."

Several other supervisors nodded one after another, which seemed to be condemnation. In fact, everyone could see that they were a little envious. Why did they not catch up with such a good gift of money and oil?

"It's this bandage weirdo. Guess what happened today? He actually came to our restaurant and wanted to spend money to buy food. Hahaha. When I arrived, I almost laughed to death!"

The supervisor laughed heartily and slapped the table while the remaining colleagues also looked surprised and quickly followed suit.

"I'm not telling you, that coolie of yours doesn't really think that they are passengers on this ship, right? She still wants to buy food. What can she buy here with her meager copper coins?"

"Hey, don't worry, the fun is in the back. Guess why she suddenly came to buy food?" Ichiro said with a mysterious smile.

"hungry?"

"No, no, no, I only found out after asking other coolies. Can you believe it? She actually picked up a stray dog ​​under the cabin."

"Stray dogs? Since when did we have this kind of thing on our ship?" Several colleagues looked strange.

"I don't know. I guess he sneaked onto the ship from nowhere when it docked at Akabane Port. Oh, that's not the point. The point is that a coolie who can't even fill his own stomach actually wants to Why don't you think you're a fool for buying food for stray dogs? Haha, it made me laugh so hard!"

Ichiro smacked his lips and took another sip of wine in excitement.

"What about the result? Did you call her back?" The other colleagues showed interested expressions.

"No, no, no, how can I be so cruel? I told her that it is impossible for the restaurant to sell her food, but if she gives me all the money to buy food, I can open a small back door for her. Go to the kitchen, wash all the dishes, mop the floor, and finally clean up the kitchen garbage, so she can secretly get some leftovers from the kitchen, right? "

"Really, Ichiro, this is not like your style." Even so, those colleagues actually felt that this was really a favor.

The samurai supervisor named "Ichiro" laughed maliciously.

"Don't you know this? Didn't you notice that Wu Si guy is not here?"

"Huh? Yes, where is the Wu Si people?"

"Of course, I went to enforce the law impartially. During the patrol, I happened to catch a little thief coolie who pretended to be working, but actually stole food from the kitchen! If he was discovered, he would be beaten at least, and he would not be punished. It’s a little money, right? According to my observation, that bandage weirdo doesn’t know what he does in the Flame Territory, and he has a lot of money.”

After Ichiro spoke, other colleagues reacted, patted him on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.

"You... Ichiro, you are so vicious, and so uninteresting. It's such a good thing to have such fun, but you only call him Wuji!"

"No, drink, drink, drink, I have to drink you to death today!"

A few people were drinking, and after a short while, they suddenly noticed something strange.

"What's going on? Why do you feel... so quiet around here?"

"Eh? What you said is really..."

When they took their eyes away from the wine table and really looked around...

Snapped

He could no longer hold the wine glass in his hand and fell to the ground. The sound of breaking glass was particularly harsh in the silent space.

"What...what's going on? Why aren't these people moving?"

The overseer warriors all discovered that except for them, everyone else around the restaurant seemed to have been pressed to pause time.

This situation also happened once outside the battlefield of Huodian City. At that time, the little wolf cub used his authority to pull Harvey, Chris and others into the soul space.

However, the difference between this time and the last time is that the former is for conversation, while the latter is for...

"Quick... look, what is that!"

Among the overseer warriors, a sharp-eyed one discovered that in this static soul space, besides a few of them, there was another person who could move.

And that's...

A wolf cub?

But the current little wolf cub does not look cute to the overseer warriors at all. On the contrary, the dim wolf eyes are scanning these people coldly, and just one look at them makes the back feel cold. A chill ran down my spine.

"Yao...Yaoxie! It's an evil spirit!"

Several people were scared out of their wits. They drew their samurai swords to embolden themselves, but the next moment, when the body of the little wolf cub began to expand rapidly, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a head. The samurai had to look up, even the restaurant. When they almost couldn't contain the giant wolf, the samurai swords in their hands, like the wine glasses before, fell to the ground, and they lost the courage to practice fighting.

The little wolf cub... no, it should be a giant black wolf now. With a slight push of his claws, these warriors who had no resistance were crushed to death as if they were trying to cling to ants.

"ah!!"

After the screams of death ended, it was not over yet. Those who died were just the afterimages of their souls. Soon they condensed again, but their faces were all pale and bloodless.

In the soul space, everyone has no entity. In other words, they have to die as many times as Liao Zixuan wants them to, and they are just resurrected again.

Just when the several overseer warriors were in shock, touching their bodies that were not crushed, the next moment, the black wolf's claws tore them into pieces again, like toys.

So soon, the same screams started to rise and fall one after another.

that's all.

When the little wolf cub felt that it was almost time to vent his lesson, he released a few of them. In the eyes of outsiders, the overseer warriors who were drinking and eating meat, talking and laughing one second, but the next second, they all looked like It was a drowning person who was rescued. He was gasping for air, his pupils were tightened, and his face was full of fear and panic.

This is especially true for the supervisor named "Ichiro". As the object of special care by the wolf cub, he was torn apart and crushed by claws in the soul space many times more than others.

"Demon...demon...no, you, you are with Lady Vivian..."

When the little wolf cub appeared in the sight of the overseer warriors at the table in reality, they first instinctively trembled with fear, but soon, without the shadow effects in the soul space, a few smart ones still recognized the little wolf. Cub identity.

At this time, they were completely unable to say a single word.

The overseer warriors were not stupid either. After a little analysis of the causes and consequences, they immediately understood the reason why they suffered so much torture.

Disaster...

Could it be that the so-called "stray puppy" that the bandaged man picked up at the bottom of the cabin was... the summoned beast of Lady Vivian, the little wolf cub in front of him? ?

This, what the hell kind of luck is this! !

Thinking of this, the overseer warriors broke into cold sweat. Lord Vivian and the others knew very well that she was their immediate boss. Miss Luzi and them specially emphasized that this very distinguished guest was also a powerful summoner. It is said that the wolf cub in the opponent's arms is as powerful as a "Shikigami".

Originally, the samurai were a little skeptical about this, because they knew how terrifying a monster that could be called a "Shikigami" level was. How could a little cub that looked like it was only a few months old really be that powerful?

The result is now...

"Yes...I'm sorry! Shikigami-sama, we deserve to die...we deserve to die!"

"I'm going to call Wu Si back...ah!?"

When Ichiro burst into tears and almost knelt down to kowtow to the little wolf cub a few times and apologized repeatedly, who would have thought that the Takeshi in his mouth would stagger back from outside.

Everyone's eyes turned around, but all they saw was...

This warrior's face was pale, his lips were purple, and he seemed to have lost his soul. He looked no worse than the warriors at the wine table who had just suffered brutal torture in the soul space.

On his neck, you can still see a faint line of blood, as if it was rubbed by something extremely sharp.

When he came back to Ichiro with weak legs...

thump.

He half-knelt down on the ground without energy.

"Ichi...Ichiro, Qian, please don't mess with that person again, she...is a monster...yes, a devil!!" Wu Si's trembling voice made it difficult for him to speak clearly.
