   Chapter 218 Nicholas Chao

  【Main quest 3: Seal "Calypso" and kill "Demon King"! You will get a clearance rating based on your hidden kill contribution. Mission accomplished: return to the real world. Mission Failed: Completely deprived of apostle qualifications! 】

at this time.

  Irin felt as if she should say "What is it?", which would be more appropriate.

   But he couldn't tell.

  The results of Gu Tianqing's actions are not unexpected and reasonable.

  Although it was a step late, Irene noticed the tricks hidden in the second main mission before Shipwreck Bay was completely destroyed.

   Some people may think whether Yilin's experience of living a new life has been used to feed Wang Tiandi.

  Irin whispered two words: "Time limit."

  The surroundings are silent.

  As the gunfire subsided, darkness fell again in the cabin.

  Irin closed the window silently, so that the navy, who was free, would mistakenly think that Elizabeth Rin was going to jump into the sea to escape.

   When pondering whether there were traps in the description of the main quest, Irin paid more attention to the difference between the "factions".

   But I didn't expect that the tower had a small hole in the time limit for completing the task.

   And it can be inferred from the tower's response that the "time limit" is actually not a literal trap deliberately given by the "tower", but a "conflict" that was born unintentionally under the rules.

   The second main quest is—

  【As one of the "Nine Pirate Kings", he participated in the "Pirate Conference" held in Shipwreck Bay three months later. 】

   As for the "task time limit", there are additional restrictions.

  [Task time limit: Before the "Pirate Conference" is held. 】

   In other words.

  The time limit of the original main task 2 is different from the usual one, it is not a simple set of days or hours.

   instead consists of two rules: "the pirate meeting in Shipwreck Bay three months later" and "before the pirate meeting is held".

   Actually, in principle, there is no problem.

   might be a bit of an afterthought, but Irin had thought of two possibilities not long ago.

  What if the pirate convention can't be held?

   Or the location used to hold the pirate meeting... Shipwreck Cove, completely wiped off the map, what if?

   Then the so-called "task time limit" will disappear completely, which means that even if the task is never completed, there will be no penalty.

   Simply put... the main quest is stuck.

   This may be the "conflict" stated in the prompt.

  In the end, the tower's way of dealing with this "conflict" is also very simple and crude.

   is directly changed to the content of the task that everyone can complete in an instant, which is almost a free gift, and the second main task is skipped.

   It is obvious that the reward of the main task 2, which was skipped in this way, was stolen and replaced with a bad check, that is, the reward that was paid after customs clearance.

   is like saying: "Want to get a reward? Hehe, if you have the ability to live until the end."

   made Irin feel the malice and bad taste from the tower.

  Because the main task 2 was completed in such a way that it almost found loopholes, the final result was to forcibly raise the difficulty and be promoted to the nightmare level trial.

   Nightmare.

  Irin secretly complained, can someone still do the trial well?

   The last time I was in Gotham City, it was also inexplicably raised to Nightmare difficulty.

   But the Nightmare level is not at the level of incomprehension, and Irin doesn't have much pessimism.

   This is not the time to despair.

  The old driver must have the calmness of the old driver.

  It's just...Irin shook her head helplessly.

   Even if ordinary people see through this loophole about the time limit in the main quest, will they choose to test the bottom line of the "tower" in such a crazy way?

   After seeing through the loophole in the time limit, Irin quickly speculated that once the shipwreck bay was destroyed and a "conflict" was created, it would definitely make a huge change in the next mission.

   This is equivalent to forcing the "will of the tower" to make a choice.

   Such a bold and crazy move, Yi Rin would never do such a thing until he was 90% sure that things would develop in a good direction.

   "He's a lunatic and a gambler."

   Actually, it's not all bad.

   At least Irin began to gradually see Gu Tianqing's character.

   This kind of person is not uncommon among the apostles, but like Gu Tianqing, a lunatic gambler who can use such a calm expression and put his own life and death aside and completely reckless... It is very rare.

"Um?"

  Irin sensed that someone was approaching.

   The other party did not deliberately hide their traces, and the footsteps were calmly stepping on the corridor on the second floor.

   After a few seconds.

   knock knock knock.

   There was a knock on the door.

  The door opened instantly.

   When Gu Tianqing knocked on the door, Yi Rin had already twisted his hand on the doorknob.

   Gu Tianqing said with a smile: "To be honest, I'm a little surprised that you can open the door for the first time."

   "I was surprised too."

   "Accidental mainline quest change?"

   "No, I was surprised that it was you who came to shoot at my door, alone, do you think I explained to others that you came to me to discuss the script and they believed it?"

  Gu Tianqing's eyes froze slightly, but she shook her head. She didn't intend to continue. She let out a chuckle and repeated the rhetorical question in the form of an affirmative sentence: "The main mission has changed."

   After saying that, Gu Tianqing looked into Yi Rin's eyes calmly.

  Tani Tianqing seemed to be observing the changes in the expressions on Irin's face, even the tremors of the facial muscles, or the diameter of the pupils, trying to see what Irin was thinking from the micro-expression.

   "I know, I'm not blind."

  Irin also turned back with a poker face.

   After a moment of silence.

  Gu Tianqing's mouth rose slightly: "Your reaction surprised me again."

   "Otherwise? Should I cry?"

  Tianqing Gu: "…"

   Made this guy snack on a turtle, and Yi Rin felt relieved in his heart.

  Irin didn't even bother to ask Gu Tianqing how he fooled into Tiramisu and let the navy bombard Shipwreck Bay regardless of the cost.

   If he asked, he might not say it, and what he said might not be true, so Yi Rin didn't bother to waste his words.

After stepping on the deck, Yilin found the Tiramisu after a few rounds of artillery, refreshed and flushed. It seemed that as the fortress of Shipwreck Bay was completely leveled, Tiramisu's depression was also swept away. For Kong, the word "Shuang" is almost engraved in the center of the forehead for viewing.

  Tianqing Gu took out three tarot cards in an old-fashioned tone: "Oh, Your Excellency, my tarot card tells me that there may be clues in the ruins."

  Tiramisu's face froze. Although he didn't fully believe Gu Tianqing's words, this man had already proved through facts that his divination was indeed terrifying, and now that Shipwreck Bay had become ruins, it was not a bad idea to search.

   After thinking about it, in the end, nine warships formed a search team to search for the remaining traces in the ruins that used to be Shipwreck Bay.

  Irin laughed, took out the small fan again, and shook it a few times in front of the tiramisu: "Ah, the weather is a little cold, it looks very warm over there, can I go with Consultant Kusashiro to search?"

  Tiramisu reminded: "It's Amakusa Qingshiro...my lady, go! Be careful."

  Tianqing Gu: "…"

   Before Irin and others landed.

   In the former Shipwreck Bay, it was so devastated that it has long been impossible to recognize its former posture.

   Under the fierce bombardment, the fortress that stood for decades finally came to an end, marking a tragic end in history.

   Originally, there were several pirate ships docked in a hidden place in Shipwreck Bay.

   But under the frantic bombardment of nine warships regardless of cost, those pirate ships also turned into wreckage on the sea, the kind that could not be put back no matter how hard they tried.

   Countless mutilated and charred corpses, still exuding a strong aroma of barbecue, were piled up in the ruins.

   You can even see some internal organs, severed limbs, and blood plasma that are barely distinguishable in shape, some or all of which are stuck together with the surrounding ruins, making it indistinguishable from each other.

   Even the barely intact corpses were bombed into various weird shapes. Some are like the word "big", some are like the word "wood", and some are like the word "tai".

  pop.

   Suddenly, there was a slight movement in one of the corpses.

   Immediately afterwards, an arm with black smoke suddenly stretched out from the pile of corpses, with the terrifying aura of my fate.

   After a few minutes.

  A "person" with peeling skin and scary abscesses all over his skin moved step by step towards the coast.

  The burns and abscesses were mixed together, leaving almost nothing on this "person" intact, spreading an indescribable smell around him.

  If anyone else is here, they may be able to tell that this is the smell of roasted meat after it has been re-rotted.

"how is this possible-"

   "No, no, no, I, Zhao Xingchen, how could I die here, I don't—"

   "You're not fair! You're not fair! Why is it only me who started this way!"

   Zhao Xingchen let out a hoarse roar, with a thick and broken voice, like the harsh hula hula sound of a blower, which sounded very strange.

   "You're not fair ah ah ah ah ah-"

   A hoarse, low roar echoed faintly in the pocket-like terrain of Shipwreck Cove, echoing the sound of the waves one after another.

   Zhao Xingchen, or Nicholas Zhao, staggered to the shore.

  In the dark night, a small lifeboat, with lights on it, was heading towards the ruins of Shipwreck Bay.

   Suddenly.

   Zhao Xingchen was shocked.

   He opened the Apostle panel and sent a series of question marks to "Gu Tianqing", which was still lit in the friend list.

   The reply was one sentence.

  —“The other party is busy, please do not disturb.”

   Do Not Disturb Mode! Do Not Disturb Mode! Do Not Disturb Mode!

   It's a sunny day in the valley!

   is Gu Tianqing—

It's him!

   Zhao Xingchen's eyes bleed instantly.

   Zhao Xingchen had come to the shore at this time, and there were shipwrecks in front of him, and even some shipwrecks were still burning with flames that had not yet been extinguished.

  Puff!

   Zhao Xingchen's feet softened and he fell into the icy sea water.

  The salt in the sea irritates the abscesses and burns on the body, but it cannot make Zhao Xingchen feel pain.

   Just because under this kind of heavy trauma, the peripheral nerves of the epidermis were almost burned, there was not much residue, and the pain sensation was lost.

in the darkness.

   Zhao Xingchen sank quickly.

   is getting deeper and deeper, as if there is an endless abyss purgatory underneath.

   At this moment, the sea water that wrapped Zhao Xingchen formed strange currents, and a "human face" made of sea currents appeared strangely in front of Zhao Xingchen.

   "Have you changed your mind now, outsider."

   Zhao Xingchen nodded frantically.

   He just wants to...live!

   No matter what happens next, he just wants to live!

   Anyway, it was Nicholas Zhao who made a deal with Calypso. Does it have anything to do with him, Zhao Xingchen?

   The sound of the waves seemed to condense into a strange laughter.

   "As you wish, hehehe..."
