Chapter 3792 Smokescreen Scholar
Chapter 3791 Smokescreen Scholar
Half an hour ago, in the central area.
The acid rain was still pouring down, and there was no one on both sides of the street, all hiding under the eaves.
There was only one old beggar, still dragging his somewhat weak legs, walking in the rain.
"Hey, old man, you don't want to live anymore? If you keep getting wet in the rain, your skin will all ulcerate tomorrow!"
"Come here quickly."
"Why doesn't this old man listen to advice? You are not a young man. Even if young people's skin ulcers once, they can still survive, but if your skin ulcers, you may be halfway into the grave!"
"Forget it, forget it, you deserve it if you don't listen to advice."
The people hiding under the eaves are still talking, but the old beggar walking in the rain seems to have not heard it at all. He just looks at the Tina Entertainment Building in the distance and mutters in a low voice: "It's almost there... It's just a little acid rain, just some hair loss..."
Compared to these minor problems, Zuniga wants to get to the Tina Building as soon as possible.
According to the tips of "Fixed News", the "outer man" is very likely near the Tina Building.
Zuniga limped forward, and before he knew it, the rain seemed to be getting heavier, and the rain curtains on the ground were raised, and with the surrounding light fog, the front was dazzling.
Zuniga subconsciously covered his eyes, and then the next second, he felt something coming from the rain curtain and drilling into his body.
The body lost weight and darkness came.
"This familiar feeling..."
"It's here again."
Before he fainted, Zuniga only vaguely heard a cry from his ear, and the young man from the nearby bakery rushed towards him with an umbrella...
When Zuniga opened his eyes again.
He found that he was no longer on the long street where the rain fell, but came to a city shrouded in mist.
The shape of this city is completely different from the modern city.
If the modern city is a steel torrent under the neon lights, then this city looks like a "modern forest city".
The buildings still exist, and some are even bigger than those in the Modern City, but the outer shell of the buildings is not covered with colorful lights and shadows, but is covered with various flowering plants.
The combination of the original forest and the modern high-rise buildings is the city in front of us.
"This is a bit like the 'Mist Forest City'." Zuniga looked up at a corner of the city and then lowered his head silently.
If nothing unexpected happens, this city is the "Mist Forest City", but it is definitely not the real Mist Forest City, but a challenge space created by a fashion monster.
He is very familiar with the situation of weightlessness and mental sleep just now.
He must have been targeted by a fashion monster.
Now, if you want to go out, you either have to complete the challenge task given by the fashion monster, or wait for the time to end and the challenge space to automatically dissipate.
If it were in the past, Zuniga might choose to sleep on the spot and wait for the challenge space to break. Although there might be backlash at that time, Zuniga doesn't care about these backlashes.
But now is different from the past. Zuniga does not plan to choose to rest, but supports the ground and stands up.
"We must complete the challenge as soon as possible." Zuniga murmured in a low voice, "So that we can leave earlier and look for the outsider..."
The ability of the outsider involves Zuniga's future happiness... He is tired of being stared at by fashion monsters and sleeping anytime and anywhere. As long as he knows which fashion monster the ability of the outsider comes from, maybe he can be free!
Thinking of this, Zuniga did not hesitate.
He first looked around. At present, he was in a long street. There was no living person, only mist, and various creatures made of mist.
From fog people, fog birds, fog dogs, fog cats... There are creatures made of fog everywhere.
They are like the residents of this city, forming the cornerstone of the ecology.
Moreover, they are all "moving", as if they really live in this city.
Although Zuniga has never been to the Fog Forest City, he knows that the residents of the Fog Forest City are actually not much different from those of the Modern City. They are all of the same race, but with some differences in customs, culture and skin color.
So there is no doubt that all these fog people were created by the unknown fashion monster.
Zuniga has spent countless challenge spaces in his life and is very clear about the rules of the challenge space. As long as he finds any breakthrough, he will sense the challenge target of the task.
And from the current situation, these fog people must be the breakthrough.
Thinking of this, Zuniga stood up and limped to a nearby fog man.
Looking at his body shape, he seems to be a child, but there is no face and details, and his body is all made of fog.
Zuniga slowly reached out and touched the fog man child.
At the moment of touching, he had sensed the information of this task.
"Within forty-eight hours, find the real mastermind hidden in the fog spirit..."
Zuniga immediately realized that it was a typical challenge task: to find the body of the fashion monster.
It is not complicated. Whether it is a low-level fashion monster or a high-level fashion monster, this task may appear. However, the difficulty is very different.
The larger the challenge space, the more troublesome it is to find the body of the fashion monster, and the more difficult the task.
And although the city in front of us is not a one-to-one replica of the foggy city, judging from the shadowy high-rise buildings in the distance, it is at least one-tenth or one-twentieth of the foggy city?
In such a huge city, it is not easy to find the true form of the fashion monster.
However, no matter how hard it is, you still have to find it.
Zuniga raised his head and looked around, and finally locked onto the tallest building in his field of vision, planning to go to the top of that building to overlook it first... Since it was a task to find a type, the body of the fashion monster would definitely be different from other fog people around it.
His mental power and observation skills complement each other. As long as the fashionable monster appears in his field of vision, he can lock it on immediately, even if it is a grain of dust.
Soon, Zuniga reached the top floor of the building and began to look around.
"For this kind of challenge mission, the fashion monster is generally very curious. Even if it is very hidden at first, it will secretly come out to see the challenger's progress later."
Therefore, Zuniga did not choose the top floor of the building randomly. As long as the fashion monster is "curious" and takes a quick look, Zuniga will be sure to find some clues through meticulous observation.
In just a quarter of an hour, Zuniga captured several targets worthy of investigation. As long as he observes for a while, he should be able to find the optimal choice using the elimination method.
However, in the process of capturing the target, another thought arose in Zuniga's mind.
"——Actually, there is no need for me to leave the challenge space in such a hurry."
"It seems that the man from outside the world took the initiative to interrupt the fashion magician who was in the middle of a mission challenge several times in a row. It was the same for both me and Falu."
"In other words, if he finds out that I am doing a mission challenge, maybe he will interrupt me?"
"And once you are interrupted by someone from outside, does that mean that the other party is nearby?"
Thinking of this, Zuniga was really hesitant to complete the challenge mission.
"Just take it one step at a time. At worst, even if you lock the fashion monster's identity, you don't have to expose it..."
…
The central area, the end of the rain curtain.
Angel left one hundred modern coins for the clerk and left.
The reason why I kept the Modern Coin was not so much out of pity for Zuniga, but more out of admiration for the bakery clerk’s kindness.
After walking a few steps, Angel came to a deep alley, and he walked in without hesitation.
There is a sewer opening at the end of this alley, through which you can enter the underground neighborhood.
On the way to the underground neighborhood, Angel finally had time to sort out the information about the wonderland he had received when he touched Zuniga.
"Random mission "Hide and seek in the foggy forest""
"Mission Overview: The undefeated Hide-and-Seek King, the creator of the city's Kirigakure, and the "Smokescreen Scholar" who came from afar decided to start his first Hide-and-Seek competition in the modern city."
"Mission goal: Please find the smoke screen scholar hiding in the fog spirit in the simulated city."
"Countdown: 47:31:12"
"Countdown: 47:31:11"
"..."
This is a challenge mission that Zuniga is currently undertaking. Angel took a rough look at it from a God's perspective. The map is very huge.
The urban space where Hide and Seek is located is almost comparable to the entire West End of the modern city.
The so-called "fog spirits" are creatures made up of various types of smoke in the city.
There are not only fog people walking on the streets, fog cats sitting on the walls, fog butterflies flying in the flowers, even fog birds flying in the sky, and fog rats crawling in the sewers, they all belong to the category of "fog spirits".
At a glance, Angel saw countless mist spirits.
One hundred thousand? million? Maybe more.
In short, Zuniga's mission is to find the "Smoke Scholar" hidden among countless fog spirits within 48 hours.
The task description is very simple and not difficult to understand, but it is extremely difficult to execute.
Even if Angel observes from God's perspective, it will probably take a long time, not to mention that Zuniga does not have perspective vision.
However, "Hide and Seek in the Fog" is only a mission exclusive to Zuniga, and when Angel came into contact with Zuniga, he received another mission.
"Random Mission "Building Hide and Seek""
"Mission Overview: It is a smokescreen scholar who loves hide-and-seek and an adventurer who is addicted to treasure hunting games. It is keen to find everything hidden, whether it is treasure buried in the soil or people hiding in the dark. Or maybe the secret hidden in the heart..."
"Mission goal: Use the entire Tina Entertainment building as a hide-and-seek place to find fifteen human skeletons hidden throughout the building."
"Countdown: 47:31:12"
"Countdown: 47:31:11"
"..."
Through a common children's game, find the fifteen human bones hidden in Tina Entertainment?
...This task has a sense of deja vu that deconstructs magical realism.
However, putting aside these unnecessary thoughts, from Angel's perspective, this task is much simpler than Zuniga's "Hide and Seek in the Fog".
The main reason is that the city in the mission space is too big and there are many nooks and crannies. If the Smokescreen Scholar is hidden in a fog rat, it will be too difficult for you to find it.
And this "building hide-and-seek" is only limited to one building, which is much simpler.
Of course, this is only simple from Angel's perspective, because he has a God's perspective, not only can he open the whole map cheat, but also the perspective cheat. It is too easy to find the fifteen human skeletons hidden in the building.
But for others, this is not necessarily easier than "Hide and Seek in the Fog Forest".
Take Starworm as an example.
If Starworm comes to do this task, he will have to face many difficulties. For example, he wants to enter the Tina Entertainment Building. It is a threshold? What's more, he has to find the skeletons hidden in the dark in the building where there are piles of fashion magicians?
Moreover, since the murderer killed someone and hid the skeleton in the building, the cleaners can't find it. Can Starworm find it?
Unless Starworm turns the building upside down and searches every detail, it is possible to complete this task. Even if you find some clues, can you really hide it from the fashion magician when you go to dig the ground and dig the wall?
You know, Tina Entertainment is the place where the most magicians gather in the entire Modern City. It can even be said that this is the most dangerous place!
Therefore, although the map of "Hide and Seek in the Building" has become smaller, the complexity and difficulty are no less than "Hide and Seek in the Fog Forest".
Unfortunately, I encountered a wall hanging.
Angel planned to find an opportunity to go to Tina Entertainment to complete this task after he came out of the underground block.
Anyway, he had the nightmare cover, and it was like entering an empty place in Tina Entertainment; and with the God's perspective, it was too easy to do this task.
Thinking of this, Angel also looked at the only clickable noun on the text column: Smoke Scholar.
Smoke Scholar, there is no doubt that it is the fashion monster behind the random task.
But this kind of fashion monster, Angel has never heard of it before.
Moreover, from the description of "Hide and Seek in the Fog Forest", the Smoke Scholar seems to have come from "afar". In other words, it may not be a common fashion monster in Modern City.
"It's worthy of Zuniga..." Angel sighed in a low voice, another rare fashion monster.
His variety show elf was pulled from Zuniga. Moreover, variety show elves are rarely seen in the modern city, and now there is only this one.
And this Smokescreen Scholar, if nothing unexpected happens, is probably also a rare fashion monster.
Rare is good.
It should be very profitable to dismantle and sell it. Maybe this Smokescreen Scholar alone can sell for a million modern coins!
Of course, the premise is that the puzzle pieces on him can fill the vacancy of the Smokescreen Scholar.
With hope, Angel lightly clicked on the "Smokescreen Scholar" on the text column.
The next second, the information about the Smokescreen Scholar emerged.
