Chapter 79 Three Wishes
Kill or let go?
This is a big problem facing Fang Lin and his team.
There is no doubt that killing the goldfish spirit, which only has a little physical strength left, is the safest way. At this time, even the wretched Fu can crush it like a stink bug. The reward he deserves is not less.
However, the disadvantages of doing so are also very clear. According to a series of relevant prompts in the task, killing the goldfish spirit is likely to cause the displeasure of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Fang Lin and his team were able to successfully kill the goldfish spirit because they had combined the right time, right place and right people. Even this was not enough. They had to consider the quiet partiality of the nightmare space within the scope allowed by the rules. Just the effect of the hidden ultimate boss, Sheshi, on the goldfish boy that he could not restore his physical strength was like opening a golden key. Although Fang Lin arranged the conflicts between the two people in a reasonable way, just like a pervert picking up a beautiful woman, why did Sheshi fight to the death when he couldn't beat him? If you can't beat them, you can't escape. Why can the dying blow after death suppress the recovery of the goldfish spirit's physical strength? There are so many tricks in this.
Fang Lin estimated that if they were evaluated according to the nightmare space, their ability evaluation at their peak would be at most one percent of the goldfish spirit, and the goldfish spirit was treated as a pet by Guanyin Bodhisattva - and it was the kind that could run away for a long few months without being noticed. It can be seen that its status in Nanhai Putuo is almost comparable to the group of mice I raise in the kitchen - the strength comparison between it and Guanyin Bodhisattva is probably less than one percent.
Therefore, Fang Lin considered the huge gap in strength between his group of people and Guanyin Bodhisattva, which was one percent multiplied by one percent, so it was undoubtedly a very unwise choice to make her unhappy. Of course, Guanyin Bodhisattva also has to comply with the system rules and it is impossible for him to go to the world of Round Table Knights and the world of King of Fighters to cause trouble for Fang Lin and his team. However, since Fang Lin and his team have laid a good foundation in this Journey to the West, at least they will enter the next world of the gold main quest of difficulty III. Once this Bodhisattva is in a bad mood and wants to find some trouble...
And according to convention, such extra choices are mostly signs of hidden quests being opened and a lot of benefits rolling in. Logically, Fang Lin and his team should be smiling and eager to click to let the goldfish spirit go. However, the goldfish spirit is a very special and powerful boss. Fundamentally speaking, the biggest benefit of killing it is not equipment, gold potential points, and other floating things, but killing the goldfish spirit here will make it disappear forever in Fang Lin and his team's archives and no longer appear, thus paving the way for the gold main quest of difficulty III in the future.
If we let him go here, what if the next time we enter the III gold main quest, the goldfish spirit will jump out alive and well, waving the lotus bone hammer and screaming. As the saying goes, the wind and water will turn around and it will come to my house this year. It has learned the lesson in the desert this time and hides at the bottom of Tongtian River waiting for the arrival of the emperor... That means no matter how much benefit we get today, even if it can make Fang Lin grow to have the physical strength of Lei Luo and the power of Lao Hu, it will be useless, and we will die in the same way!
The battle in the desert has made Fang Lin and his team deeply understand the shameless, lewd and perverted nature of the goldfish spirit, the boss guarding the nightmare world leading to IV difficulty. If we let the tiger go back to the mountain here today, no, let the fish go back to the river - although nominally it is to throw the goldfish spirit back to his original owner, but since it can run out once, can't it run a second time? Of course, Fang Lin and his team can also go back to the Three Kingdoms world to complete the III gold main quest, but will the nightmare space favor one over the other and adjust the difficulty of the Three Kingdoms world to be lower than that of this goldfish spirit?
So after so many pros and cons analysis, everyone looked at each other, nodded in unison and reached a consensus in a buzzing manner!
"Slaughter!"
"Kill!"
"Slaughter."
"Cut!"
The word "cut" was naturally shouted by the wretched Fu who was excitedly wearing an apron and waving a kitchen knife. He seemed to be determined to get this thousand-year-old sashimi. Fang Lin was also a quick person. After reaching a consensus, he pulled the trigger of the defender without saying a word.
A sinful bullet was fired, aiming directly at the forehead of the goldfish spirit... The sand beside it made a "pop" sound, and it didn't know what it hit. It didn't sound like it hit a rock or the sand, but it sounded like it hit a human body. This couldn't be said that Fang Lin's shooting skills had become so bad. It was just that he was first blown to death by the secondary pill spit out by the goldfish spirit, and then he was calculated together with No. 13 Tang Long and the goldfish spirit. His physical and mental strength were exhausted. The defender was a high-end product that had been modified and could transform itself, so it was natural that it was heavier.
Therefore, it was not a big deal that Fang Lin missed the target when he fired the gun. Anyway, they were now absolutely safe in the nightmare space. It was just a matter of aiming at the head of the goldfish spirit and pulling the trigger again. But the cold sweat on Fang Lin's forehead suddenly broke out, and the defender couldn't hold it steady, because after the gun was fired, a cry of pain came from the sand, and then it stopped abruptly!
The shot he just fired was like an accidental discharge... There is only one possible person who could have been hit, and that is Tang Sanzang!
When the gold fish spirit changed its fighting form for the last time, its body shape changed significantly, from the original size of ten Yao Mings to the height of Pan Changjiang. Under such circumstances, it was naturally unable to capture Tang Sanzang, who was more obsessed with him than the lover in his dreams. Hidden and tucked away, I can only reluctantly throw it away. Tang Sanzang was thrown into the desert with a layer of disgusting mucus all over his body. Most of his head was buried in the sand and was hidden behind a sea buckthorn plant. Fang Lin's shot misfired and hit him, immediately waking up his unconscious brother Yu Di, moaning in pain.
Fang Lin wiped his hands with cold sweat, not to mention that his continuous mission would still need to be solved by Tang Sanzang, but if there was no such thing, if Tang Sanzang died, his group would definitely not get anything good to eat. This is like Zhongnanhai's bodyguards killing 10,000 killers but something still happened to the country's leader. Not to mention that the merits and demerits are equal, at least it was a big hat who was guilty of malfeasance. What's more, that shot was fired by Fang Lin?
The group of people looked at each other, but in the end, Lao Hu came to his senses with experience and strode forward to perform first aid on the battlefield. After some tossing, Tang Sanzang woke up slowly, not sure if it was because he was threatened by Lao Hu's imminent use of artificial respiration. Come, Fang Lin and the others still let out a long sigh of relief. Who knew that Tang Sanzang immediately saw the half-dead fish next to him and said:
"Amitabha, the donor is thinking that it is not easy for this fish demon to practice cultivation, so he wants to repay kindness with evil to keep it alive. If you are really kind-hearted, you will be rewarded with a long life and descendants..."
Fang Lin was stunned, and immediately checked the nightmare mark, and immediately found the prompt "If you choose to spare its life, please wake up Tang Sanzang next to it to get the next step of the mission." I can't help but be speechless at my understanding of the nightmare space. Even if I woke up Tang Monk with a misfire, it could be counted as a "rescue"!
Not to mention Fang Lin, even others did not expect that such a situation would happen. However, Miss Lin is a person who hangs out in shopping malls. Fang Lin glanced at her and she immediately jumped out and made a fool of herself. Anyway, according to historical records It is recorded that Tang Sanzang's resistance to women/or monsters that turned into women was negative.
"No! You can't let it go!" Miss Lin made a teapot-like gesture with her hands on her hips, and then she launched one of the three most deadly skills of women, "making trouble", and put all her previous worries aside. After everything was said, Tang Sanzang listened patiently for a long time before shaking his head and saying:
"Amitabha, the donor's worries are unnecessary. Once the goldfish spirit returns to the disciples of the great master, it will naturally change its mind and will not come out to harm the world again."
Hearing Tang Sanzang's assurance, Fang Lin felt happy. Tang Sanzang had always believed in the motto of monks not to lie. If he said it would not appear, it was almost a guarantee of the nightmare space. Now that the biggest worry has been eliminated, letting go of the goldfish spirit is not an unacceptable behavior. This option, which is similar to a hidden mission, can be considered.
"If all the donors can release the goldfish essence to cleanse their minds and take refuge under the Bodhisattva, then Guanshiyin Bodhisattva will agree to the three requests of the donors."
The news dropped by Tang Sanzang immediately shocked Fang Lin and the others. And I thought about it over and over again in my mind! Under the rule tendency of the nightmare space, there is no doubt that the benefits of killing the gold fish spirit are quite good, which should at least exceed the total income of the three monsters of Huli. However, one bad thing is that the equipment dropped by the gold fish spirit must be based on water. Mainly attributes, it almost certainly has attributes such as increased swimming speed, increased combat power in the water, etc. These attributes are considered to be the best attributes in the nightmare space, but this kind of attribute that requires a special environment to be effective is not suitable for reincarnators. , but it is definitely a semi-waste thing.
The three requests of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva are obviously not subject to this restriction. After hearing this, Xiaofu immediately shouted with great excitement that he would choose three wishes. The first wish was to expand these three wishes into one hundred... Fang Lin ignored them directly. After losing his speech, he was asked to draw circles in the corner.
Obviously these three wishes are limited. For example, the benefits obtained by killing the goldfish spirit + the key can be equivalent to RMB 10,000. Then the benefits given to Fang Lin and the others by these three wishes combined can only be worth RMB 10,000 at most. About twelve thousand yuan. If the lion opens his mouth, the Bodhisattva will not do anything to Fang Lin and the others, but it is normal to make chickens and eggs and beat them up empty-handed.
Fortunately, Fang Lin is good at calculations. In the real world, Miss Lin is able to hold a world-class company like the E.S. Consortium single-handedly. The two of them worked together to do cost accounting and profit statistics. Naturally, they were very familiar with it, and it soon became a matter of course. I readily agreed to release the goldfish spirit, and also thought about three requests I would make to Guanyin Bodhisattva...
