Give the Terrans a little shock

In this way, all the large and small strategy groups focused their main energy on the Xiosta volcano. They were betting that the crisis in Xiosta this time all came from the volcano.

Chapter 107 Ceylon, Skyfire and Big Tail Wolf

Black Knight Mace's actions were very efficient. When she received SilverAsh's new order, she had already arrived at the foot of Xiosta Volcano, just about to enter the dense jungle in front of her.

While waiting, Mace, acting as an operator named Lin Guang, once again examined the Kuranta girl. The name of the Brilliant Knight was well-known, even to her in Kjerag. With the support of the SilverAsh intelligence system, she had been keeping an eye on this up-and-coming girl.

This attention continued until the Knight of Glory became infected and was expelled from Casimir and lost contact. Although Jian had plans to win over the Knight of Glory during this period, she was powerless as she could not contact him.

The next time they met was when she drew this apostle Lin Guang in the game, whose edge had mostly faded and become mature. Out of preference, she has been using this image since the beginning of the game.

Just as she was staring at the calluses on Lin Guang's hands in a daze, Lin Guang's excellent hearing made her seem to hear a faint cry for help.

Jian almost instinctively raised his head to identify the direction, took out his communicator and briefly informed her of the reason for her sudden action. Then, Jian jumped up and turned into a dazzling light and rushed into the jungle directly in the direction of the cry for help.

Soon, the mace found the person who was crying for help. It was a Liberian girl who was being attacked by a swarm of Originium insects. She fled desperately while protecting the notebook in her arms, and dodged the acid sprayed by the insects in a somewhat awkward manner.

Then, when she turned back to observe the acid spewed by the Originium insect swarm and adjusted her escape route at any time, she accidentally kicked a tree root on the ground and fell forward with a scream. Her originally clean clothes and face were covered with mud.

But she had no time to care about these. Instead, she lowered her head to check the notebook she had been holding in her arms. After confirming that the notebook was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and looked at the approaching Originium swarm and retreated timidly.

Jian had already recognized that this Liberian girl was none other than Ceylon Dolkos, the daughter of Lord Xiosta, whom they had intended to contact but had not been able to find.

Just as she was about to rescue people, there was movement coming from several other directions of the jungle, forcing her to speed up.

Just when Ceylon was feeling desperate as she looked at the swarm of Originium Bugs that had crawled in front of her, she suddenly saw a beam of light descending in front of her, and then a hammer flew out from the light, knocking away the nearest Originium Bug and knocking down several Originium Bugs.

Then a Kuranta girl emerged from the light, holding a shield and walking towards the Originium worm that was knocked away, and lifted the acid-stained hammer from the opponent's remains.

Just when the mace blocked the Originium swarm, a fire suddenly broke out from behind Ceylon, repelling part of the Originium swarm. Ceylon looked back and saw a thickly dressed girl holding a flaming staff and walking out, followed by a Luper girl holding a crossbow and a very large tail.

Opposite her, a greatsword flew out and skewered several Originium worms. At the same time, a white-haired, red-eyed girl with no clear racial characteristics strode out from the tall grass torn by the greatsword and fearlessly picked up the greatsword stuck in the ground.

Several people surrounded the large group of Originium insects from the front and back and began to clean up the insects that began to attack people.

Jian, who arrived first, looked at these people who had snatched away some of her credit and sighed inwardly, knowing that she could no longer keep the information to herself.

Even, Jian could sense that there were more people who were too late to help and were lurking in the jungle, watching and quietly waiting for their conversation with Ceylon to get more information.

But how could the mace let them get what they wanted? At least at this moment, they were all competitors.

So after clearing out the Originium swarm, Mace took back the shield and hammer in his hand, and politely invited the Liberi girl and others to return to Xiosta to rest.

Ceylon hesitated for a moment holding the notebook in her arms, but still agreed. She knew that it was not safe for her to rely on herself now, and it would be nice if someone was willing to escort her all the way out.

Tianhuo and Provence (original characters in the story) were unaware of the players' little tricks. They were more concerned about the data recorded in the notebook in Ceylon's arms. Based on the conversation in the previous battle, they already knew that this small notebook recorded all of Ceylon's observation data on the Xiosta volcano, which might become a strong evidence to confirm their guess.

Ishamara snorted lightly, shook off all the acid on the sword in her hand, put it back into the scabbard, then followed Ceylon with the sword on her back to show her attitude.

After that, Jian sent a friend request to Ishamara. While waiting for her approval, he subconsciously glanced at her personal information, and then his heart stopped.

It was because she saw the other party's name, Ishamara #94742, who was the new great player - the only outsider in the large group strategy group. Ishamara was currently recognized by players as one of the strongest players, with a glorious record of speedrunning Faust's Purgatory Challenge in 5 seconds.

But her good psychological quality made her look calm. She just leaned on the knight's hammer with both hands to signal Ceylon to lead the way, and then walked in front to clear the way. In fact, she had secretly sent several messages to her teammates through the game chat channel.

As for Provence and Skyfire, they are nowhere to be hidden in the players' game interface. After all, the blue names above their heads, which symbolize NPC, are highlighted.

Soon, Ceylon returned to her residence under the escort of several tough guys.

As soon as Ceylon returned to her residence, she completely relaxed. She held her notebook and trotted to her room with Tianhuo to find her computer to look up information.

Tianhuo, who was about to contact a real volcanology expert in Rhodes Island, was pulled into the room with a confused look on his face. Seeing Ceylon had already turned on the computer, he subconsciously grabbed the other party, then took out his communicator to indicate that he had a way.

Then he dialed the number of that big guy, and soon, a brown-haired Caprini girl answered the video call. It was the recognized volcanology expert - Miss Lamb, Eyjafjalla.

"Skyfire? Aren't you guys on vacation in Xiosta? Why did you suddenly think of sending me a message?" The lamb on the other side of the video asked a little puzzled.

"There's no time to explain. Miss Eyjafjalla, please check these data about the Xiosta volcano. We suspect it's about to erupt."

Tianhuo kept moving his hands as he spoke, packaging all the data he had collected and the data recorded in Ceylon's notebook and sending them to Eyjafjalla.

After hearing this, Xiaoyang did not dare to slack off and quickly began to analyze the data after receiving it.

In the living room, Provence, Mace and Ishamara were sitting in three directions respectively.

Provence carefully tended to her big tail and asked casually, "Can you tell me now? About the reason why you appeared near Xiosta Volcano, and about those guys who were hiding nearby and acting suspiciously when we came to rescue Ceylon when it was attacked."

Upon hearing this, Jian and Ishamara, who were sipping tea, raised their heads and looked at Provence. Then they saw that the big-tailed wolf had one hand on the trigger of her crossbow at some point in time. The crossbow was slightly raised and aimed at the lower bodies of the two.

"I have no intention of being your enemy, but you have to give me a reason to trust you, especially those of you who are using the image of our Rhodes Island operators."

Provence was smiling happily, at least on the surface it seemed so.

Chapter 108 Ishamara also learned to lie

But Provence was only proud for a few seconds, and she could no longer laugh, because she was now being pinned down by Mace and Ishamara. Mace was riding on Provence's back and tied her hands behind her back with one hand.

Ishamara held down Provence's legs and looked at his tail curiously. This was the first time she had seen such a big, smooth and furry tail. When she came back from the volcano, she wanted to touch it and try it.

The poor big-tailed wolf didn't dare to shout loudly, and could only make mournful whimpers and tried to struggle to turn over, but the double pressure from her back and thighs made her unable to move.

"We have no intention of being hostile to you. Perhaps we have common goals, such as investigating the true situation of the Xiosta volcano."

After saying this, Jian released the hand that was suppressing Provence, and stood up from the back of the big-tailed wolf, raising his hands high to show his sincerity.

Ishamara, who was still happily feeling the furry beauty, widened her eyes and reluctantly let go of the tail whose fur had been tangled from being pulled. She stood up with the wonderful touch remaining on her palm, which made Provence feel much lighter in an instant.

After getting rid of the heavy burden, Provence quickly turned over and sat up, rubbing his hands back and forth to relieve his numb thighs. At the same time, he put the messy tail in front of himself. Looking at the messy tail with countless knots, he felt so distressed that he almost cried.

The sense of grievance from Provence made the culprit hide her hands behind her back and whistle an innocent little tune, but looking at her slightly shaking arms, you could tell that she was still reminiscing about the good old days.

But Provence is a qualified messenger of natural disasters, and he is best able to distinguish the priorities of things.

So she wailed for her tail and swung it behind her back. As long as she couldn't see it, she wouldn't feel upset, Provence deceived herself.

She pulled out a notebook and pen from her shoulder bag and prepared to start recording whatever information Mace and Ishamara could tell her.

At least, for now, she could only trust the two people who had not shown any hostility. For Provence, this was much better than those rats who were still hiding in the dark.

In Tianhuo's room, Tianhuo calmly turned off her headphones. At least from the headphones she could tell that she didn't need to worry about Provence anymore, so she should concentrate on dealing with the problem in front of her.

As for how big the problem is, you can tell by looking at the frown on Eyjafjalla's face in the video communication.

Eyjafjalla has always been very efficient. She looked through the information she had collected and carefully checked the volcanic data provided by Ceylon before reaching a conclusion. At this time, Provence and Ishamara walked in with a combing brush and mace.

For the two Scourge Messengers, as long as they can work together to fight against the Scourge and rescue people, they don't care what people from other forces think. Unless they have ill will towards the Scourge Messengers or them personally, or if they don't help or even make things worse when facing the Scourge, they will choose to use force to solve the problem. They just haven't fought.

"Finally, based on the isotope comparisons and final analysis of multiple samples...

Volcanic activity is expected to peak in two to four weeks, after which a catastrophic eruption will occur.

If possible, it is best to arrange for citizens to prepare for evacuation immediately."

After hearing Eyjafjalla's conclusion, Provence, who was combing his tail with a brush, stopped what he was doing and looked at each other with Tianhuo, Ceylon and others.

Provence and Skyfire: How could a vacation lead to such a big trouble?

Ceylon: What? My family is really going to be gone?

Mace and Ishamara simply expressed their sympathy and did not say much, because they knew very well that they were only experiencing the future of another world. In reality, Hermann should have acted earlier and taken preventive measures based on the cause of the crisis.

After listening carefully to these contents through the communication channel opened by the mace, SilverAsh thought about it and decided to let Nosis share the abnormal data they found through the mace in an attempt to obtain more information.

After receiving the order, Jian called out to everyone who were about to close the communication after they had finished praising each other.

"Wait a moment, please. I have some unusual data on volcanic surveys that might be of interest to you."

Several people looked at him with curiosity and doubt.

Jian didn't want to explain anything more, he just stepped forward and sent all the information he received in his communicator to Ayafara.

"Let me take a look." The lamb said as she opened the document and quickly read the contents. After a while, she sent a confused voice.

"This data looks a bit like earlier volcanic survey data."

Hearing this, Ceylon subconsciously turned around and looked at Qian, whose expression was calm. It turned out that you had been secretly surveying the information about the Xiosta volcano for a long time?

(锏: How can I explain to you the time difference between my real world and yours?)

But Eyjafjalla, who obviously didn't know their specific relationship, didn't care about these things. Instead, she compared these data with their existing data and quickly discovered the abnormality.

"Hey, what is this data? Life activity response?"

Having said that, Jian knew she could speak.

"Yes, we discovered some signs of life activity in the Xiosta volcano during our observations. According to the data, it is a large creature that is currently active in the magma. However, we can only speculate this much, after all, we are not good at this."

"Wait a moment. I'll contact my biology friend and ask her to help analyze it." After saying this, Ayyafalla hurriedly hung up the video call.

Seeing that the communication had been closed and making sure that the conversation on his side would not be heard by Ayafara, Ceylan turned around and looked at the mace and said.

"So, you surveyed data on our Xiosta volcano a few years ago, even without our knowledge. Can you explain this behavior?"

Just when Mace was still waiting for Silver Gray to teach her how to answer step by step so as not to reveal any flaws, Ishamara answered her.

"We are from the logistics department of the Scourge Messengers. We have been operating in the more dangerous areas of Terra. To this end, we even use other people's images to facilitate our operations. Ordinary Scourge Messengers don't know us, so it's normal that you haven't heard of us."

"Is... is that so? I've never heard of it." Provence, who was already a veteran messenger of natural disasters, widened her eyes and said in a daze.

"What about our Xiosta volcano?" Ceylon wanted to refute.

"At least for those of us who are surveying data in the crater and even inside the volcano, yes." Isamara said seriously without changing her expression.

"Okay then." Ceylon reluctantly accepted this statement, but from her expression, it can be seen that it's up to me whether I believe it or not.

"In fact, in response to the frequent crises that are about to occur recently, we have no choice but to increase the frequency of our activities. We expect that in the next period of time, we may contact you frequently and ask for your assistance. Please do not refuse then."

Ishamara thought about it and decided to make a patch for them to cooperate with the locals in their subsequent activities.

(Although Provence only has one year of combat experience, the files, voice, and plot show that Provence is already a responsible and experienced Messenger of the Scourge. By the way, her Trust Touch can make her sing a cute song.)

Chapter 109: First Meeting with the Lord of the Volcano

Eyjafjalla has always been very efficient. She quickly confirmed through her friend that this was the life activity reaction of an Originium worm. Even her friend had confirmed which kind of Originium worm it was.

Everyone held the records sent by Eyjafjalla in their hands, looking at the lifelike drawings of giant mutated Originium worms on them. Tianhuo had already recognized what it was.

"Pompei is a special individual that mutated from an Originium worm that lived in volcanoes for a long time. It has been seen in different volcanoes in history. Some people also say that it is the culprit that caused the volcanic eruption."

The lamb carefully introduced the situation of this Pompeii, and then took out a comparative data to remind everyone.

"But you need to be extra careful when you act. This Pompeii is currently the largest of its kind that we have observed. They also carry a terrifyingly high temperature. Close combat is not recommended. They are also highly resistant to fire spells. You even need to be careful of their possible long-range attacks.

That's all I know, I hope this helps you."

After explaining the information about Pompeii that she had at hand, Eyjafjalla bowed. She knew that if they only relied on Skyfire and Provence, they would not be able to fight against Pompeii. This might be a difficult task for them.

"Thank you for your help, Miss Eyjafjalla." Provence was not panicked at all. She was still confident that she could complete the task.

"After suppressing Pompeii, I will collect some of its information, which should be able to provide you with some help." Tianhuo was already thinking about what to do after suppressing Pompeii.

"If possible, please be as careful as possible and stay safe." Ayafara gave a few more instructions with concern and then cut off the communication.

At this time, Jian was folding her arms and looking at the remote communicator with a black screen, thinking deeply, while the Sheragg strategy team behind her had already gathered people to gather at the Xiosta crater.

SilverAsh, the employer behind her, has a hunch that this Pompeii may become the biggest BOSS in the Xiosta story event, and the first kill of Shelagh by the strategy team will be today!

He glanced at Ishamara who was still in a daze without leaving a trace. Since the conditions seemed sufficient at the moment, Mace did not intend to act with her.

But just when Jian was about to find an excuse to start, her wrist was grabbed by a strong little hand.

Jian glanced at the object that grabbed her wrist, and saw that the seemingly silly little killer whale gave her a sly smile.

"I just helped to give a good reason, and now you suddenly want to leave. Where do you want to go? Don't you think so, Black Knight, Mace?"

The last sentence was said by Ishamara, who leaned her whole body against Mace and whispered in her ear, but it had a great effect.

Because of Ishamara's interference, Tianhuo and Provence, who had just finished checking the Pompeii data, withdrew their gaze from the documents in their hands, and called on Mace and Ishamara to prepare to go to the volcano. Ceylon clamored to catch up and showed them her medical Originium skills, trying to prove that she was useful.

After revealing the identity of the mace, Ishamara simply said "Coming!" when Provence called her and followed happily, leaving the gloomy and uneasy Black Knight behind, as if she was not worried at all that the other party would run away.

"Boss, can I?"
