Obviously, Chen Shen bumped into a player who was also wearing an invisibility cloak.
However, it was covered by a cloak and Chen Shen couldn't see clearly what the other party looked like, but he didn't care.
"You are also here to investigate the great elder, right? How about we cooperate? Maybe two people can go better than one?" Chen Shen suggested.
The other party didn't say anything, he just pulled the corner of his cloak out of Chen Shen's hand, turned around and entered the whirlpool.
Apparently he refused.
Chen Shen sighed. Although he originally planned to come by himself, now there is someone who is not sure whether he is an enemy or a friend. What if it affects his actions?
The young man covered himself tightly with an invisibility cloak. Seeing that the vortex seemed to be getting smaller, he no longer hesitated and walked quickly over. After a moment of dizziness, he fell into a damp cave.
Chen Shen got up and something cold seemed to be dripping. He wrapped himself in a cloak and dodged.
If it were Sang Qi, what would she do?
Chen Shen lowered his eyes and thought, and then he reluctantly came to the conclusion that Sang Qi would just rush forward.
A little light flashed in front of him, it was the light in the hand of the great elder.
Chen Shen followed him on tiptoe. He tried to breathe as calmly as possible. In addition to paying attention to the great elder, he would occasionally look around for the unknown player who came in with him. Wouldn't it affect his actions?
The young man walked forward, and when he reached the corner, he smelled a strong smell of blood, as if something had been left there for a long time, creating a sour and strange odor.
Chen Shen stopped and looked up.
What caught my eye was a coffin.
Different from the ice coffin of the goddess in the snake cave, this seems to be just a simple coffin, and the air is still filled with the rotten smell of corpses.
Chen Shen covered his cloak and boldly stepped forward to take a look.
It was a woman, with beautiful and gentle features. Her body had almost rotted into a skeleton, but her face remained intact.
Her face was pale as death, and she was lying there with her eyes closed, and there seemed to be a smile on her lips, as if what she was facing was not death, but something that made her feel very happy.
Three huge question marks popped up in Chen Shen's head.
Who is this?
The great elder came over holding the weird piece of jade. Chen Shen quickly gave up his seat and let the great elder stand there. He held his breath and stood aside to watch it at close range.
The barrages in the live broadcast room are flowing very fast.
【A new character has appeared!】
【Has this person appeared before? 】
[Back upstairs, I haven’t seen this woman before. At least the previous players have never seen this woman when they went through the dungeon. In my impression, after the goddess started the sacrifice, it caused thousands of Gu to fight. The Gu bugs lost control and affected the players, almost falling into a kind of chaos.
Fighting mode.]
[I used to think that this dungeon was too simple, purely relying on force value. But why... there are so many hidden plots? 】
Chen Shen couldn't even see the discussion about the plot. He took a quick glance at the barrage, but the Great Elder was right next to him, so he didn't dare to answer. He just stared at the Great Elder without blinking, memorizing all the details.
.
I will share the clues with Sang Qi later. Chen Shen thought, this is something she has not discovered.
Finally, he was able to catch up and overtake Sang Qi once.
The great elder had already placed the piece of jade in the hands of the woman in the coffin who had turned into a skeleton. The face without features stared at the woman's face.
After a long while, he spoke through Centipede's mouth: "You will open your eyes again, I promise."
Chen Shen: "?"
How can you open your eyes when they have rotted into skeletons?
Chen Shen looked at the skeletal woman with only a intact face in the coffin, and then at the faceless elder.
He was lost in thought.
In a sense, the two people seem to complement each other quite well?
"Sister Ayan, since you left, I have become the Great Elder, but I feel very boring. Without you in this village, there is no one else worthy of my nostalgia." The Great Elder continued to ramble.
Chen Shen was listening when his shoulder was lightly tapped.
He suddenly shivered and almost jumped up.
Fortunately, Chen Shen remembered that he was in front of the Great Elder. He suppressed the scream in his throat and turned his head to look.
No one can be seen, it should be a player wearing an invisibility cloak.
Or... ghost?
Chen Shen stiffly pulled his lips.
…
…
At this time, Sang Qi was also standing in the cave, right next to Chen Shen.
She was also the one who tapped Chen Shen on the shoulder just now.
It's just that Chen Shen couldn't see her because of the invisibility cloak.
Wu Zhu seemed to be convinced by her in the end and led her to the corner of the altar. Because the little black snake couldn't speak, it took a lot of effort to figure out how to open the vortex.
The great elder is still talking: "You always said that if I grow up and become a powerful person, I can take over your position and become the great elder. But now that I have become the great elder, you are no longer here."
Sang Qi's eyes froze slightly.
succeed……?
To replace the woman in the coffin and become the Great Elder?
The girl moved her fingers slightly, which meant that the woman lying in the coffin was the former great elder.
He is also the owner of that diary.
Sang Qi blinked softly, breathing softer, almost even his heartbeat slowed down.
She thought wrong.
Because the great elder they saw was a man, they preconceptionally believed that the previous great elder was also a man, and even considered whether this great elder was Wu Zhu's father.
But they ignored the possibility that the previous great elder was a woman.
Then what she wrote in her diary was that she was not in harmony with the goddess, and even had some thoughts of resisting the goddess. The strongest idea appeared after the death of the stranger who broke into the village.
Sang Qi was thoughtful, so if the sacrifices had been stopped for so long, would it have anything to do with the former great elder?
Was it she who caused the goddess to fall into a deep sleep?
"...I will inherit your legacy and help you destroy this village." The great elder suddenly said: "I will avenge you and your child who died in vain."
Following the direction the elder was looking, Sang Qi quietly looked down and saw clearly what looked like a small embryo hidden in the piece of jade.
For some reason, the little black snake on the shoulder seemed to have serious mood swings. Wu Zhu used the snake's body and tail to tightly wrap around Sang Qi's arm, and couldn't tell what kind of mood it was in.
It's very strong, like a spirit that has been stored for a long time.
Sang Qi patted the little black snake's head soothingly.
The great elder continued to recall some past events. He seemed to be saying whatever came to his mind, and the words he used before and after were a bit inconsistent.
A few people hidden in the cave listened quietly to the great elder recalling his childhood past.
