Chapter 422 Thirty Years on the River Surface, Thirty Years on the River Bottom

In fact.

When the pale tentacles began to frantically kill the witches around them...

Chen Ye was not idle, but watched everything that happened on the field attentively.

He found that the pale tentacles could ignore the protection effect of [Night Domain]...

But the strange thing is...

[Night Lord] himself was not attacked by the pale tentacles.

Even though he had withdrawn from the state of "integrating into the night", the pale tentacles did not even look at that guy. Some tentacles even passed by [Night Lord] within a few meters, but ignored him and passed by directly, as if it was not a player but transparent air that passed by.

Recalling that when [Night Lord] took out the card when passing through the iron gate, a gray shadow human outline covered his body.

And now, the gray shadow still covers this guy's back, like a shadow that follows him like a shadow, as if it has been bound in some way, allowing him to ignore the pale tentacles.

However...

[Lord of the Night] himself was thinking about how to complete the task, and seemed to have no idea of ​​this at all.

However, the "illusion curtain" cast by [Witch of Instigation] had a miraculous effect on this group of pale tentacles, which made Chen Ye have many speculations about this.

"Now, among the known information, [Instigator Witch] has both [Spirit World] and [Starry Sky] sequences."

"Both attributes can affect the pale tentacles."

"But the [Starry Sky] sequence, because the [Instigator Witch] is too low in level, can only play half of the [Starry Sky] sequence characteristics. For the pale tentacles, the [Starry Sky] characteristics are driven by the most primitive energy, which can indeed cause an impact, but the lethality is not great at all."

"Except for triggering the violent state of the group of tentacles, it can almost be said to have no meaning in solving the current situation."

"Then why did the pale tentacles choose to take a detour when they saw the [Illusion Curtain]?"

"This guy's wisdom is actually more advanced than simply seeking benefits and avoiding harm."

That's right!

Advanced!

In fact, for the natives of the Weird Era, even if it seems to be ordinary and advanced, the meaning it brings is likely to change dramatically.

You know, the natives of the Weird Era generally follow the law of seeking benefits and avoiding harm.

Hunting witches is of great significance to the pale tentacles...

That is, absorbing the blood of witches is crucial to their growth, expansion, and recovery.

In fact.

It is more appropriate and reasonable to call the pale tentacles a taboo than a monster.

Their actions almost only follow a simple killing instinct.

As taboos, generally speaking, they do not have complete consciousness, and they cannot survive in this city of destiny with a "human-like" behavior pattern like Miko and the group of faceless children of the Lin family.

After all, their existence is originally distorted and incomplete.

If they cannot kill, they may not be able to start, or fall into a dormant state directly.

It is equivalent to being sealed.

Due to the incompleteness of the existence mode, they need to rely on obtaining certain necessary energy from the outside world to provide themselves with energy for survival.

These energies do not come out of thin air.

They need to be obtained from specific beings.

Then.

Only by relying on the infinite spread of killing can they support the necessary living conditions for their "existence" and "activities".

However, there are always exceptions to everything.

The feeling that these pale tentacles gave Chen Ye was obviously different from ordinary taboos.

They have a more efficient killing mode.

Including the choice of targets and the direction of attack, they are almost very similar to the player's strategy-

Choose the most efficient way to achieve the desired goal!

The specific performance is a bit similar to the skinny old man before.

The targets and directions chosen for killing are usually places where the number of witches is relatively concentrated.

In this way, they will be more efficient in killing.

"Having intelligence... that means that this group of pale tentacles is no longer simply seeking benefits and avoiding harm, but will consider more factors."

"So, the reason why they bypassed the illusion of the [Instigator Witch] may have more considerations?"

"Is there something in the sequence of the [Spirit World] that makes them feel afraid?"

Closing his eyes, Chen Ye was recalling the necessary conditions for a clever victory when the low sequence is against the high sequence.

Among them.

If the characteristics you master have a restraining effect on the target's characteristics, it will undoubtedly greatly increase the chance of winning this battle.

In fact, Chen Ye has encountered similar things after the bloody countdown.

Last month, in the battle against the 'Dragon God', the leader of the Sea God used the [Trident of the Sea God] and defeated the 'Dragon God' across levels with the help of the power of the gods.

Strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as sequence restraint, but as the use of a higher-level characteristic, with the help of the suppression force, the 'Dragon God', whose rank is lower than the 'Sea God' in the corresponding sequence, was defeated.

As for why the [Spirit Realm] restrains the pale tentacles...

In response to this, Chen Ye's mind moved, and he had similar speculations in his mind:

"Chenxi said that when she was promoted to the fourth-level [Guardian of Dawn], she felt the control of the higher-level sequence and the [Scorching Sun]. This power is closer to the origin of the Star Spirit Body, which made her subvert her speculation about the Scorching Sun Church."

"At the same time, when I first unlocked the [Secret Scroll of the Scorching Sun], although I did not have the characteristics of the [Scorching Sun] sequence, I could burst out with the power of the third-level [Scorching Sun Judge] by controlling the scroll with my own spirituality."

"So, does this also mean that there is some deeper attribute in the [Spirit Realm] sequence that can control the attributes of multiple sequences?"

"You know, the essence of the City of Destiny is no longer as simple as a copy, it may be a battlefield of the war of gods!"

"The [Spirit Realm] sequence looks deeper than I thought!"

Gathering the many pieces of information in his mind, Chen Ye couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Don't think it's just a simple restraint...

But the hidden secrets behind it should not be underestimated.

Chen Ye was somewhat curious. Why, in the context of the God War, there would be a guild like the Dark Night Organization that was born among the players with the goal of hunting down players?

Their existence was not as simple as a group of psychopaths. It seemed that there was some purpose.

However, after the last fight with Dark Night, Chen Ye felt that the real mastermind behind the Dark Night Organization could not be "Dark Night" himself.

To put it bluntly, that "Dark Night" was more like a chess piece. It seemed to hold extremely high power, but in fact, it was just a puppet that was framed.

What was the real purpose of the Dark Night Organization, and what was its relationship with this God War?

At this moment.

Chen Ye became more and more curious about this.

He vaguely realized that this matter might have a deep connection with the truth behind the City of Destiny.

It was also closely related to his future strategy direction.

It was also tied to the fate of the entire City of Destiny...

But now, for Chen Ye, how to deal with these tentacles is the most critical issue.

"Since the pale tentacles are afraid of the power of the [Spiritual World], then this means that I can use the suona to persuade these tentacles to retreat, just like when I encountered the huge blood-colored monster eye floating on the surface of the Xijiang River at the beginning, I could use the suona to sink them to the bottom of the river."

"Let them understand what it means to be on the surface of the river for thirty years and at the bottom of the river for thirty years."

"However, it is still too difficult to save these witches with just the suona."

"I have no problem protecting myself, but if I really want to close the channel, I need to save at least a hundred witches and let them sing the song of the closing ceremony to completely stop these pale tentacles."

"What effect will my suona have on the pale tentacles? The sound is still unknown. "

"After all, the sound of the suona is too unpleasant. It may backfire and make these tentacles fall into a violent state. This is also possible..."

"What's more, playing the suona at this time is likely to expose yourself."

"Maybe after the pale tentacles are dealt with, the high-level members of the Dark Night Organization will find a way to deal with me!"

"At present, it seems that the suona is still used for self-protection, and there is basically no problem."

"But if you want to save these witches..."

"It's still a very difficult thing!"

Chen Ye frowned, thinking about how to free these witches from the sea of ​​​​tentacles.

Spiritual...Spiritual world...

Wait!

Didn't that batch of bombs come from the [Spiritual World]?

Chen Ye suddenly remembered that batch of bombs. Wasn't it that the witch opened up the passage to the 'Spiritual World Sea' through the chanting ceremony and traded this batch of gunpowder from an ancient existence.

Of course, this batch of gunpowder has nothing to do with mental attacks.

But since it is an item summoned from the spirit world, it means that this thing is likely to be tainted with a similar aura.

Especially the aura carried by that ancient, transcendent existence.

There is no need for gunpowder to have much actual lethality. Just release these auras to create a living space for the remaining witches!

Thinking of this.

Chen Ye's eyes immediately scanned the various cabins of the ship.

At this time, the ship was not moored in the narrow passage when it came in, but was brought in by the [Lord of the Night] through the characteristic field.

A night field that was differentiated dragged the ship and sailed in the darkness.

Chen Ye looked up and suddenly found that the ship was being held up by a curtain of darkness about ten meters above everyone's head. It was not high, but it was not low either.

Taking advantage of the chaos on the field...

Chen Ye immediately activated [Lightless Stalker] and merged into the 'Night Domain' summoned by [Night Lord]. In a few seconds, he quietly arrived on the ship.

"Thank you for the darkness you created, which provided me with such a perfect space for movement."

Chen Ye's mouth curled up slightly.

If it weren't for the night created by [Night Lord], he wouldn't be able to cast [Lightless Stalker] at will in this copy.

In this way, if you want to reach the interior of the ship at a height of ten meters above, you must swallow a [Golden Fried Griffin], use the wings of the demon monster, fly through the air, and reach the ship.

But using such means is too conspicuous.

Even if you are not discovered by [Night Lord] and [Instigator Witch], there are so many witches and so many eyes below, there will always be a pair of eyes that can see the abnormal situation happening to you.

But if you blend into the night, it will be much more secretive.

Except for [Night Lord], it is almost impossible for other existences to find your traces.

But at this moment, [Night Lord] is creating a night field and trying to protect the witches, while shouting at the top of his voice, asking these witches to chant the ritual music quickly and close the passage so that everyone can be saved.

However, in this desperate and panic situation, only a few witches were able to stay awake. Most witches were so frightened that their souls were out of their minds and their pupils were dilated. It was already very good for them to run away with their short legs. It was really difficult for them to stay absolutely calm, understand what the [Lord of the Night] said, and complete the task of closing the channel according to such strict execution.

"This bunch of idiots!"

The [Lord of the Night] looked at the few dumbfounded witches who were once again sucked into the abyss by the pale tentacles and turned into nutrients. He was so angry that he almost jumped up.

He wished that he was the pale tentacles now and killed all the stupid witches!

Dragging this group of pig teammates to pass the dungeon of hell-level difficulty is more tiring than playing a MOBA game with nine people.

When will the fifteenth button appear?

Click it quickly!

Boom boom! ! !

At this moment, a bright fire and a thunderous explosion sounded in the air...

When the fire spread out, the pale tentacles that were about to spread towards the dozen witches seemed to be frightened and fled madly to the back.

"Where did the explosion come from?"

[Lord of the Night] was completely confused.

Seeing that the dozen witches he had finally abducted from various places were about to be turned into nutrients by the tentacles...

He was almost in despair!

Who knew that this miraculous explosion could actually persuade the arrogant tentacles to retreat with the most simple physical attack?

What the hell is going on?

Looking closely, I saw a witch standing on the deck, with a bomb in her left hand and a bomb in her right hand, throwing them hard at the pale tentacles.

When the explosion sounded, the pale tentacles in that area fled away without even a shadow.

Seeing this scene, the [Lord of the Night] was completely stunned. He stood there for a long time, wondering if he was dreaming.
