Chapter 405 Monster! Prince?

Just when ‘Lambier’ thought that the female player in desperate situation was going to show her trump card to save herself.

The other party did something that surprised everyone.

The woman shouted to the nearest heavy armor guard:

“He and I, we want to take all the tasks!”

Logically, this shout should also be blocked by the challenger’s barrier.

But the reality is just the opposite.

The shout was clearly heard by everyone and successfully attracted the attention of the heavy armor guard.

Lu Li was stunned, obviously not expecting the female player to have such a trick.

The rules do not clearly require that only players who participate in the ball can accept the tasks issued by the prince.

So even the ‘civilians’ stranded on the beach can accept the tasks if no one competes for the tasks.

However,

given the current situation of the female player, let alone completing the task, it is difficult to even get out of the challenger’s barrier.

So her ultimate goal should be to trigger the punishment for mission failure and drag the yellow-haired stick who pretended to be dead into the water!

Soon, the guard's voice sounded:

"Civilians, are you sure you want to take the three tasks?"

The female player nodded desperately, and added with reassurance:

"He and I are together, and we will take the three tasks together!"

The armored guard's questioning voice passed through the challenger's barrier and also fell into the ears of the yellow-haired stick.

The latter felt strange,

but he had to pretend to be dead and couldn't respond.

Seeing that the two had "no objection", the armored guard turned around and looked around the players in the dance floor.

After finding that no one stood up to receive the task, he said lightly:

"Okay. Then you two will take the task..."

Before the guard finished speaking, the female player laughed out loud:

"We can't complete the task, hehe..."

Although the guard's face covered by the armor could not be seen, I didn't know what his expression was.

But from the sudden silence at the scene, it is not difficult to see that

these secret realm companion creatures are very angry.

The guard is very angry, and the consequences are serious!

"Those who accept the task but cannot complete it will die."

The largest heavily armored guard at the head picked up a long-handled axe and strode towards the woman.

When the yellow-haired stick heard that he was going to be implicated and die together, he immediately pulled his head out of the sand pit:

"No, I'm not with this woman, I don't want to accept the task!"

"It's her who can't complete the task, not me!"

As soon as the last sentence was shouted, the woman's body, kneeling on the sand, was split in half by the axe blade.

Blood splattered, all blocked by the barrier in front of the yellow-haired stick.

But it couldn't stop the heavy-armored guard from moving forward.

"Those who accept the task but cannot complete it will die."

The guard's voice was as cold as the axe blade raised high.

Seeing that he was about to be chopped down, the yellow-haired stick was quick-witted and shouted:

"I can complete it, I promise I can complete the task!"

"You can't kill me, I can complete the task issued by the prince!"

"Okay." The heavily armored guard put down the axe and turned back to the entrance of the ball.

However,

Just when the yellow-haired stick heaved a sigh of relief and was glad that he had escaped the disaster temporarily.

The sudden chill around him made him shiver.

Fear rose from his heart, evaporating the last bit of alcohol in his brain.

He was still on the beach,

and,

he did not play dead!

"Shi Ba!!"

The yellow-haired stick turned his head suddenly, and saw that several translucent "ribbons" had appeared in the darkness at some point!

It was like the tentacles of a jellyfish, swaying gently in the sea breeze.

In the center of the tentacles, there was a vague figure.

Before he could see the specific face, a bloody mouth suddenly emerged and bit the yellow-haired stick's chest fiercely!

Although it was not fatal, it also took away a large piece of flesh.

The pink sternum was exposed to the air, and the internal organs could be faintly seen beating in the chest.

The severe pain and fear swept over the yellow-haired stick, making it difficult for him to keep calm and think.

All that was left was constant cursing and futile struggle.

"Did you record it?" Lu Li glanced at Pan Xiaoxiao and asked Alyssa.

"I did! But it's a bit blurry and I don't think it's clear." The cat-eared girl stared at the data panel intently and asked uncertainly:

"Master, mermaids shouldn't have so many tentacles..."

"Of course not." Lu Li replied:

"It seems that mermaids must be excluded from the options of the true identity of the terrifying creatures."

Pan Xiaoxiao, who was listening, looked surprised and a little embarrassed.

She had already been sure that the true identity of the terrifying creature was a mermaid.

Unexpectedly,

the monster had nothing to do with mermaids when it appeared.

Thinking carefully,

maybe she relied too much on the experience summarized by her predecessors, which misled herself.

"I have benefited a lot from following Mr. Lu Li to conquer the secret realm."

Pan Xiaoxiao sighed in her heart.

In the challenger's barrier, the yellow-haired stick was in a very bad state.

I don't know if it was because of being fooled,

the attack frequency of the terrifying creature increased a lot.

During the time Lu Li and Alyssa were talking, the yellow-haired stick had been attacked several times.

The wounds all over his body were hideous and horrible to look at.

But the monster didn't seem to intend to kill it,

just as the third rule said -

[especially like to bite the flesh of living people! ]

It seemed to treat the player stranded on the beach as a buffet restaurant, and when it thought of it, it emerged from the darkness and took a random bite.

This repeated process was a good thing for Lu Li and his team.

After some filming and analysis, they soon figured out the true identity of the terrifying creature.

"That face... looks like a prince?"

Pan Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes widened, and she was obviously shocked by the truth.

"It does look like it, but let's not rush to draw a conclusion." Lu Li said.

"Why?" Alyssa shook her cat ears:

"It's obviously the prince, we can go to the guards to take the task and receive the reward..."

"No, we really can't rush to draw a conclusion." Pan Xiaoxiao immediately followed Lu Li's thoughts and frowned:

"There is a problem inside!"

"What problem?" Alyssa blinked.

"It contradicts the rules!" Pan Xiaoxiao said, holding up her glasses:

"If the monster's true identity is the prince, then when the prince was there last night, the monster shouldn't have appeared on the beach."

"But last night, we all heard movement in the dark."

"If we rule out the monster's resemblance to the prince..."

"There are probably two terrifying creatures!"

"Good analysis." Lu Li raised his eyebrows and gave Pan Xiaoxiao a thumbs up.

It's good to team up with smart people, who can understand everything at once.

And some details don't need to be explained, people will fill in the blanks in their minds.

Li Luo moved his eyes away from Pan Xiaoxiao's chest, and said to Lu Li with a sour tone:

"My benefactor, I don't think this monster is deadly."

"Do you want me to go out and try to kill it?"

"As long as you bring back the body, the truth will come to light."
