"The cave-dwelling beasts were unable to resist the barbarians, so they and humans sent out a request for help from humans."
"After negotiations, the cave dweller beast clan wants to return the demon species to humans, namely His Highness Mingyue."
Listening to Argyle's explanation, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
Demon seed? What the hell is that?
Wei Tao asked: "What happened next?"
"When we met here last time, the cave-dwelling beast clan had verified His Royal Highness Mingyue's royal identity. Originally, His Highness Mingyue would go to the underground world in the Xisai Forest area as agreed, retrieve the demon species and find a way to completely eliminate them.
"
Argyle said and looked at Tang Mingyue carefully, "But according to the leader of the cave-dwelling beast, His Highness Mingyue's team encountered an accidental collapse of the underground world passage halfway, and was attacked by barbarians. After that, His Highness Mingyue even more
I don’t know why I opened the box that sealed the demon species.”
"Now that His Highness Mingyue has obtained the power of the demon species, it is very likely that he will become a powerful demon. That's why the cave-dwelling beasts just now thought of ways to lead us into the underground sealing area where the demons are sealed, hoping to use the power of Xie Guba
Seal His Highness Mingyue."
"Demon species? Me?"
Tang Mingyue pointed to the tip of her nose, with a confused look on her face, "Are you sure you didn't translate it wrong? Or did they make a mistake? When did I get the power of the demon seed?"
Argyle looked at Tang Mingyue seriously, "Your Highness Mingyue, they are very sure that you have obtained the power of the demon species. You have just gained the power now, so it may not be obvious, but the squirming bloodshot eyes in your eyes have already been revealed.
Already."
Everyone looked at Tang Mingyue.
There weren't many bloodshot eyes in Tang Mingyue's eyes, but if you looked carefully, you could see that the bloodshot eyes were indeed moving.
Tang Mingyue's heart suddenly sank when she saw the expressions on everyone's faces getting weirder and weirder.
Isn't it? Is everything they say true?
Fang Heng did not dwell on whether Tang Mingyue had become a monster, and continued to ask: "Okay, what exactly is a monster?"
Argyle looked very embarrassed. He tried to translate, "They can't explain it clearly. Judging from the information on the murals, both humans and barbarians have gained powerful power from the demon species, but power also comes with expensive costs."
At the price, most people will be lost in the power of the demon species and become puppets of the power."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other again.
Listening to his explanation, it seems that demon seeds are good things that can improve abilities and attributes? Did Tang Mingyue make money?
Mo Jiawei scratched his head and said suspiciously: "But that's not right. The box we found at the beginning of the trial was obviously empty. Where did the demon seed come from? Not to mention the power of the demon seed, Tang Mingyue didn't have it either.
Get game tips."
Tang Mingyue also agreed, "That's right! I don't have any relevant game tips now."
"The game prompts that this cannot be used as direct evidence. It may also be the difficulty setting of the task." Wei Tao said and looked at Argyle: "Translate to them and ask him about the empty box."
After hearing Argyle's question, the barbarian leader chattered again with several elders behind him, and then talked a lot to Argyle, looking a little excited.
Argyle wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to everyone again: "They said it was impossible. The demon species has been guarded by the cave-dwelling beasts for generations. The box was also made by human saints for a long time to seal the demon species.
Yes, except for the crisis that arose among the cave-dwelling beast clan a long time ago, some clan members opened the box once and no one touched it again, so there cannot be anything inside."
Tang Mingyue frowned as she listened.
She felt that the behavior of these cave-dwelling beasts was so real that it didn't look like they were lying at all.
So something must be wrong?
What's the problem?
"All right."
There were many doubts, and Fang Heng didn't care about one more. He continued to ask: "Two questions. First, what is the stone we found behind the water curtain? Second, what did we see outside the black box that sealed the demon species?
There are murals, but what do those murals mean?”
Argyle gestured and communicated with the leader again, frowned and said: "The mural was painted by the ancestors. It is said that the ancestors of humans, barbarians and cave-dwelling beasts accidentally obtained the power of the demon species from a huge stone, but after gaining strength
At the same time, he was also cursed by power."
"They believed that this terrifying power would lead to the destruction of the world, so they unanimously decided to hand over the demon species to the cave-dwelling beast clan for safekeeping."
"Later, there was a crisis in the underground world. In order to deal with the out-of-control giant scale dragon of the abyss, some of the cave-dwelling orcs wanted to use the power of the demon species."
"The leak of the demon seed occurred during that period. Fortunately, human saints came to help and created seals and alchemical life underground. It was at that time that Xie Guba obtained the power of the demon seed."
"They don't know what the black stone you found behind the cave is. They only know that it was passed down from our ancestors, and our ancestors did not allow any ethnic group to go near it."
Listening to Argyle's explanation, everyone fell silent again.
Demonic seed... stone...
Fang Heng murmured to himself.
Everything is related to the demon species, but the box where the demon species was originally stored was empty.
Just as he was thinking about it, Argyle continued: "Fang Heng, the leader of the cave-dwelling beasts said that many barbarians have invaded the underground world recently, causing great trouble to the underground world. He hopes that we can help repel the barbarians."
Just as they were thinking about it, game prompts appeared in the retinas of Fang Heng and other players.
[Tip: The player team triggers the main mission - Demon Seed].
Mission name: Demon Seed.
Mission Difficulty: SSS.
Mission requirements: You have reached a cooperation with the cave-dwelling beast clan. Please try to find out the truth about the demon species and help the cave-dwelling beast clan get rid of the curse of the demon species.
Mission reward: The trial rating is greatly improved.
Wei Tao and others looked at each other, and their faces suddenly showed bitterness.
Three-S level mission difficulty...
In the previous S-level missions, the team was almost wiped out. If they hadn't encountered Fang Heng and a clan of cave-dwelling beasts to help, they might have failed and exited the game long ago.
Now, still SSS?
"Ahem."
Wei Tao coughed lightly and forcibly boosted his morale, "This mission is different from the ones we encountered before. We don't necessarily have to solve it through combat. After all, the difficulty of the mission also includes the decryption part, so we still have a chance."
Recognizing the gap between fantasy and reality, Wei Tao's wording changed from definitely being able to get it to just having a chance.
Fang Heng shrugged.
He and Tang Mingyue communicated frantically with their eyes.
good news!
Ignore his main quest and his demon seeds!
In short, they have another twenty-four hours of trial time, and they can also find an excuse to fish!
