Chapter two thousand six hundred and six lakeside monsters
The Adventurer's Guild does not doubt Jia Zhengjin's words, because fundamentally, it agrees with other adventurers that with Cohen's strength, it is absolutely impossible to kill the Havedi team.
So the focus is on getting information about the armored knight, although the truth of the case is not that important.
Unless someone pays a high price to investigate the facts, similar things happen frequently, and the Adventurer's Guild will not make a thankless deal.
Jia Zhengjin didn't know anything about it anyway, and he turned out to be an armored knight whose appearance was completely invisible, and he didn't even know whether he was a man or a woman. His acting skills were very natural, and he was not afraid of being seen through at all.
After getting through the situation, the adventurers discussed the matter of the armored knight one after another, and were very interested in this illusory existence, which was completely fabricated by Jia Zhengjin.
Just as he wanted, Jia Zhengjin went to Molly to inquire and receive a new E-level exploration mission [Twin Moon Lake], and quickly set off on horseback.
This task also has a relatively high risk factor. Like the previous ancient tombs, it is a type of miscalculation.
The reason why Jia Zhengjin specifically chooses this kind of exploration mission is to quickly strengthen himself and quickly change his image in the eyes of other adventurers. It's like being "lucky" to complete a mission every time. Anyway, you can get points by completing the mission and constantly improve your adventure.
level, and then take on missions that are more dangerous and have higher bounties.
Shuangyue Lake is seven kilometers south of Tongshan City and is located in a remote mountainous area.
Even riding a horse requires a lot of effort, and it is not easy to travel through mountains and rivers to get there.
The so-called Shuangyue Lake is actually a natural lake similar to two crescent moons with their backs facing each other. It looks very magical.
Some time ago, many passers-by said that they could hear strange cries when passing near Shuangyue Lake, which made people feel creepy.
If one or two people say it's okay, but everyone who passes by here says the same thing, then there's something wrong!
In view of the fact that there have been no casualties or injuries in attacks so far, the guild designated it as an E-level mission, and obviously Jia Zhengjin was not the only one to investigate.
"Listen to me! Everyone spread out and investigate carefully, don't miss any clues!" When Jia Zhengjin arrived at Shuangyue Lake on horseback, he saw a dozen adventurers wandering around the lake.
They didn't even care about Jia Zhengjin who appeared here. They completely pretended that he didn't exist and only focused on exploring the surrounding situation.
After all, Jia Zhengjin is now playing Cohen, a well-known loser.
This is a little-known adventurer team, but it is definitely more famous than Cohen.
They didn't care about Jia Zhengjin, and Jia Zhengjin didn't bother to leave them. He dismounted and tied the horse to a nearby grassland.
When you come to the lake, you don't need to run around and investigate like these adventurers. You can directly open the virtual map and see several red dots in the lake.
The real target of this mission is actually those dangerous creatures in the middle of the lake. If these adventurers are as stupid as these and wander around the lake, it goes without saying what their fate will be.
As expected, the red dots in the screen reacted immediately after the adventurers dispersed.
One of the red dots moved quickly towards the shore, quickly heading towards one of the farthest adventurers.
Jia Zhengjin stood quietly observing from a distance, staring at the location of the red dot.
"Hey!" At this moment, an adventurer on the left bank spotted him and turned around and shouted to him, "Don't approach casually, there may be danger nearby!"
Xun Sheng looked around and saw that she was a young woman, about eighteen or nineteen years old, holding two daggers in her hands. She turned out to be a dual-wielding warrior.
"Meili, leave him alone!" Another adventurer not far away immediately shouted, "The mission is important!"
"Okay!" The young woman named Meili glanced at Jia Zhengjin and continued to explore the lake.
Except for her, the other adventurers ignored Jia Zhengjin at all.
Jia Zhengjin was reciprocal, because the woman named Meili had reminded him, so he kindly shouted: "There is a monster in the lake, you'd better stay away immediately! The person farthest away is especially dangerous, hurry up and let him run away."
!”
Hearing this, several adventurers nearby turned to look at him, including Meili, but they quickly ignored him.
After all, Cohen is a good-for-nothing that everyone knows about in the Adventurer's Guild. He only does the lowest level tasks every day. Who will believe what he says?
There's nothing you can do, I've already reminded you anyway, it's your own fault if you don't believe me.
Jia Zhengjin squatted on the edge and observed the lake carefully. The red dots would definitely jump out and attack the adventurers. He just took the opportunity to see clearly the true face of the monster.
In the virtual map, other red dots also move quickly, swimming towards other adventurers.
Counting carefully, there were 8 red dots in total, and they all seemed to be similar. But Jia Zhengjin couldn't tell the true identity and name of the red dots before seeing them face to face.
The farthest red dot was very close to the shore, but the locked adventurer didn't notice it and was still carefully surveying the surrounding terrain.
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly appeared where the red dot was, just like a finger crossing a blackboard, making goosebumps all over the body.
The adventurers were immediately attracted to their attention, especially the one closest to them.
He was brave enough and walked directly to the lake and looked into the water.
At this moment, a humanoid creature suddenly rushed out of the lake. Its upper body looked like a naked woman, but its whole body was covered with scales, clinging to its body like clothes.
The sound was made by this strange humanoid creature. Before the adventurer could react, the humanoid creature's hair turned into life, turning into more than a dozen thick tentacles, which shot out quickly, tying up the adventurer directly.
Then he turned around and plunged into the water.
The adventurer at the farthest end screamed in surprise, and was dragged into the lake before he could react. He panicked. There was silence for a few seconds, and a bunch of bubbles appeared on the water.
This scene frightened the other members of the adventure group, and they hurriedly ran along the shore.
After the nearest person arrived, he only saw the bubbles disappearing, and then red blood quickly appeared, which made people look horrified.
The adventurers who were rushing over here suddenly heard the same strange scream when they were halfway there. Then a large number of humanoid monsters appeared and shot out their tentacles. In just an instant, they dragged seven other people into the water, and there were also bubbles.
, accompanied by the appearance of scarlet blood.
Such a terrifying situation made the few remaining adventurers feel like they were dying, and they screamed and turned around to get away from the lake.
But it was too late. Before they could escape, the humanoid monsters appeared again, shooting out tentacles and pulling them one by one under the water.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk~" Jia Zhengjin saw this scene and said to himself that the monsters in the lake are quite powerful!
Several adventurers nearby were pulled into the water one after another. The dual-wielding warrior Meili was closest to Jia Zhengjin. When she saw him squatting next to her in a panic, she hurriedly shouted: "Run!!"
Move towards him.
Jia Zhengjin felt a little surprised when he even thought about letting others run away. He saw a humanoid monster rushing out of the water and shooting its tentacles at the dual-wielding warrior. With a thought, he quickly took out his bow and arrow and shot it with a "swish".
