Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 188: Quiet Platform
[Search successful, four areas have been marked. ]

[Area 28064: Quiet Platform ( wax oil required, Danger Level: Extremely High)]

[Area 18076: Box in the House ( wax oil required, Danger Level: Very High)]

[Region 3…]

After refreshing a circle.

Rogge suddenly stopped what he was doing, and he felt the feedback from the spirit candle.

These two areas were searched together, and the amount of wax oil consumed was far more than that of the previous areas.

One reason is naturally because the scale of these two copies is large, and another potential reason is that there may be "Broken Cores" in these two copies!
This is the feedback given by Lingzhu.

Of course, Lingzhu couldn't be completely sure, it could only feel it vaguely.

Whether it exists or not can only be known after the identities of these two areas are fully revealed.

However, this made Rogge feel relieved.

He was not afraid of not having the Broken Core, but he was worried that he would never be able to find the whereabouts of the Broken Core, which would be troublesome.

It seems that the areas that can be searched in different areas of the Spirit Fire Port are also completely different...

You know, in the previous area search, Lingzhu never gave him any feedback in this regard, otherwise Rogge would not have placed his hopes on the little snail and the shadow cave...

There doesn't seem to be much progress in the Shadow Cave, and Ryan hasn't appeared for a while...

Shaking his head and throwing away the thoughts in his mind, Roger regained his attention and began to pull the area.

[Confirmed traction area 1...]

[Confirmed traction area 2...]

……

[Attention, the new areas "Quiet Terrace" and "Box in the House" are now unlocked and available to all players! ]

[Tip! There is a high probability that there are important mainline items in this area. Collect the items and hand them over to the Candle Keeper to get generous special rewards! ]

A system message quickly reached the sight of all players.

Of course, many players have already seen the Candle Keeper in the traction area. After all, the traction area can cause quite a bit of noise.

It was already evening in the real world. Many players went online after dinner, rubbing their hands together and preparing for a hearty adventure in another world.

"Wow, a new copy has been opened!"

"Hmm? Where is this copy? Why don't I see it?"

"Not on Candle Firewood Island, but in the coastal town. The Candle Keeper is in the traction area here. Come quickly, brothers!"

"Ah... I hope the plot of this new dungeon will be better. To be honest, the plots of the previous dungeons were either non-existent or just a few small side quests. It was always dry and boring to fight monsters."

"What's the big deal? I just like fighting. Fighting! It's awesome!"

"What is the important main plot item? Is it the 'Broken Core' mentioned in the previous hint?"

"It should be. I saw in the storyteller's video that this thing is likely related to the advancement of the main storyline, and it may be able to increase our level cap."

"What are you waiting for? Go for it!!!"

"..."

Otherwise, why do we call players “super leeks”?

Before the little snail's shell has fully grown, the new players have already grown.

After more than a week, most of the original mid-level players have upgraded their levels and equipment, and the newbies who had just joined have now become mid-level players and are working even harder to kill monsters.

Look, it can even find soil to develop on its own, it’s really intelligent!
In the prison player group, the scouts who were exploring the map also sent new news.

Gray Sky: "Quiet Terrace single-player copy, Box in the House five-player copy."

My hamster is called Guagua: "Ah? One is a single and the other is a five-person group? Why is there such a big difference?"

Time to eat mushrooms: "A five-person dungeon... We can form an expedition team, like the brave team in the novels hhh."

I did push-ups with the Bull: "I'm going to check out this five-player dungeon... It's the first five-player dungeon. Maybe the Broken Core is in there. Anyone want to team up?"

It’s time to eat mushrooms: “I have something else to do, you guys go first.”

My son failed the exam and I went ashore: "I'll go, Brother Niu will take me with him."

Scheming Frog: "I'll come too."

My hamster is called Guagua: "Take me! I want to come too! And Tianji wants to join too!"

Gray sky: “…”

Soon, Niu Niu's team was full of people. The group was silent for a while before Li Miao, Zhan Doushuang and Bu Long arrived late.

After Li Miao flipped through the chat history, he couldn't help but spit.

Brother Miao did not fail the exam: "I asked this bastard on the shore to wait for me, but he went straight to the dungeon. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I get offline."

Zhan Dou Shuang: "Hahaha, doesn't he do this kind of thing often?"

Brother Miao never failed the exam: “So I beat him up often.”

Brother Miao did not fail the exam: "Brother Mangzi, I am not deaf, do you want to take the exam together?"

Battle is cool: "No, Bulong and I are going to Yuxing Island to brush some equipment to increase our attack power."

Braum is really not deaf: "By the way, where is the storyteller? Why doesn't he come out and analyze it for us?"

Brother Miao did not fail the exam: "He should still be doing the task given by the Candle Keeper... Then you guys go, I'll go to the Quiet Platform to take a look."

Fighting cool: "Okay."

There are many people in the player group, but not everyone can stay in the group all the time. In order to enhance their strength, many people are collecting equipment and weapons according to their own combat systems.

Therefore, Li Miao had to give up the idea of ​​going to the [Box in the House] for the time being and went to the coastal town through teleportation.

……

Quiet high platform.

There was a strange reddish hue in the gloomy sky. There was no breeze, no drizzle, only dead silence. Even the chirping of insects at night seemed to have been muted.

The bottomless fog connected the boundless dark border. In the center of the fog was a mountain with a flat top and steep surroundings.

However, this combination of thick fog and high mountains is more like an "isolated island"...

Outside the isolated island, a nearly rotten dead tree with a bloody color extended from the edge of the cliff and connected to a foothold that had not been completely swallowed up by the border of darkness.

next moment.

The spiritual candle appeared and the candle flame flickered.

The wax condensed into the shape of a knight in heavy armor, and then dried and solidified.

The dark and lightless night made his armor dim.

The knight who was half-kneeling on the ground slowly stood up.

Li Miao glanced around, then saw the bottomless cliff and single-plank bridge in front of him, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

You don't need to look to know that the spiritual candle is guiding you on the other side of the single-plank bridge.

Is it so exciting to play at birth?

After searching all around without any results, Li Miao could only look at the single-plank bridge.

However, just as he was about to take the first step, he suddenly became alert, then retracted his foot, stroked his chin and looked at the darkness on the other side.

The bloody single-plank bridge...the dark other side...

Something always feels wrong.

As some not-so-nice gaming memories came to his mind, Li Miao became more alert.

After thinking for a moment, he frowned, then took off all his weapons and equipment, put the important items into the spirit candle, and only wore shorts and held an initial long sword.

If you explore the way this way, you won’t feel bad if something happens.

Anyway, he had saved up a lot of wax oil, which was enough to save money. Naked Li Miao quickly stepped onto the single-plank bridge with a nonchalant look on his face.

The sticky feeling under his feet was just as he expected. The blood on the single-plank bridge was not without purpose.

This log bridge is as slippery as a stone covered with wet moss!

Snap, snap, hiss!

Li Miao slipped, but fortunately he inserted the sword into the single-plank bridge and managed to keep his balance and not fall.

Looking at the bottomless fog beneath his feet, Li Miao seemed to hear some vague sounds, but he didn't know if it was an illusion.

If it were a bull, he would probably jump down.

But Li Miao had a different idea. He planned to go and find the milestone spirit candle and then observe.

Thinking of this, Li Miao breathed a sigh of relief, set his eyes on the other side, and drew out the sword under his feet.

Although this single-plank bridge is slippery, it is still relatively spacious and stable, and the surface seems to have been cut flat, so it is estimated that it was not so slippery at the beginning.

"Why not just build a bridge..."

Li Miao complained in his heart while stabbing the ground with his sword and slowly moving his body towards the other side.

Gradually, the journey was halfway through.

He seemed to be overthinking it. This single-plank bridge was just slippery, and there didn't seem to be anything else wrong with it...

Swish!
Just as Li Miao gradually relaxed his vigilance, there was suddenly movement on the single-plank bridge under his feet.

Two hands covered with eyeballs suddenly appeared in the place where the blood was the thickest, and then they flapped and struggled frantically like stranded fish.

clap clap clap!
"Fuck!"

Li Miao's pupils shrank and he screamed in fright, almost falling down. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and inserted the sword into the single-plank bridge again.

"Fuck you!"

Li Miao was furious and swung his sword to cut off the two eyeball hands.

Besides being angry, he was also somewhat confused.

The damn thing didn't try to restrain him or attack him.

It's like it was just to scare him?

The designer's bad taste?
Just as he was puzzled, he didn't realize that the screams and curses just now had quickly spread and echoed to the other side, becoming the only sound nearby...

Li Miao continued to move forward.

But soon, he suddenly noticed that the scenery on the other side seemed completely different.

I saw a bunch of monsters wrapped in dirty blankets and covered with thick hair suddenly standing in a row on the other side of the river. The most eye-catching thing was their erect, thick-haired ears.

Under normal circumstances, this might be somewhat cute.

But at this moment, they were all staring at Li Miao on the single-plank bridge with their calm vertical pupils.

【High platform audience】

They were not of high rank, only embers, but the descriptions about them were somewhat chilling.

[Explanation: The loyal listeners of the high platform expect to hear wonderful music. If they hear unusual sounds, you'd better pray that this is the prelude to the music.]

Li Miao was startled and felt something was wrong.

What the hell is this? Why do so many monsters suddenly appear?

He forced himself to steady himself, holding his sword in alert while preparing to fall off the cliff.

Anyway, I didn’t bring any equipment this time, so it doesn’t matter if I don’t pick up the wax ash.

But what is surprising is that.

These [audience members on the platform] just looked at him quietly, seemingly without any intention of launching an attack.

Li Miao frowned slightly, then noticed the descriptions about them.

Audience…Strange noise…Prelude to the movement…

So, these so-called "listeners"...are here to listen to music?

Li Miao immediately realized the key point.

Before he was frightened by the eyeball man, the other side of the river was empty.

But as soon as he made the sound, these "listeners" came in droves, probably because they thought they could hear the so-called "music" here...

If this is the case, it would not be difficult to explain why they kept staring at him instead of attacking him.

After sorting out the logical relationship, Li Miao breathed a sigh of relief.

Therefore, as long as no unusual noise is made next, this group of listeners will not attack me.

But...what if they keep following him? Where can he get music for them?

...Forget it, let's go there first. If all else fails, find the milestone spirit candle, take out the equipment, and then kill all these guys.

After making the decision, Li Miao continued to walk forward, while also paying attention to both sides of the single-plank bridge, alert for the reappearance of the Eyeball Man.

Not long after, in a place filled with blood, the eyeball hand reappeared, struggling frantically and banging on the single-plank bridge.

But Li Miao was mentally prepared. He kept his mouth shut and stared at the audience on the podium on the other side.

Swish!
Sure enough, the next moment after the eyeball hand made the noise, the originally calm pupils of the audience on the podium suddenly turned bloodshot and their faces turned scarlet.

Many of the audience members on the high platform directly pulled out their sharp flying blades and threw them madly at the two eyeball hands.

Bang!Bang!
Among them, two of the audience members on the high platform twitched, and two blood-red wings burst out from their backs and flew towards the eyeball hand.

They can't stand any noise!
But this brought bad luck to Li Miao.

Although the audience on the platform were not targeting him, the flying blades were not always accurate, and he was very close to the eyeball hand.

Not to mention the two high-platform audience members coming over with flapping wings.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

Li Miao subconsciously raised his sword to block, but the sound of the flying blade falling on the sword was very crisp.

puff!

After the two eyeball hands were torn to pieces by the audience on the podium, they soon cast their scarlet and terrifying gazes on Li Miao.

"..."

Li Miao smiled awkwardly.

Then he shrugged, stood on tiptoe, and jumped down swiftly.

Although there was still hope if he fought to the death, he had to investigate the sound below anyway, so he might as well jump directly and save some time.

Two audience members on the platform flapped their wings frantically and rushed towards him. If you didn't know better, you would have thought they were trying to save him.

bang——

【die】

Li Miao fell into a pool of wax mud, and his wandering soul rose up.

"It seems that we must deal with those eyeballers in advance..."

"It's best not to make a sound at all, otherwise the audience will appear..."

While Li Miao was thinking, his soul returned under the guidance of the spirit candle.

It seemed that due to the long distance, the traction speed was very fast and the scenery was falling rapidly.

The cliff under the thick fog was indeed very deep. Even if he could jump twice and summon the Wings of Wind, it would probably not be of any use.

"Ok?"

Just as Li Miao was thinking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something dark and deep passing by in the rapidly falling scenery.

Like... a cave entrance on the cliff?
