Relax, I'm not some troublemaker from a role-playing game.

Chapter 12, 8! 8!



Chapter 12, 8! 8!

On the shore, a chilling, desolate atmosphere gradually spread.

Until the first fervent shout rang out:

"For the great Holy Spirit!"

"Sacrifice! The offerings must not be removed!"

"Go to the sea that He cherishes!"

Amidst increasingly frenzied shouts, one by one, the deep-sea divers leaped from the ground into the water, transforming into the most astute hunters in the water, and pursued the small boat.

Bai Xi watched this scene from afar, feeling his breathing gradually become heavy, as if the air had become sticky.

"Indeed, this is just the beginning."

He murmured to himself, turned around, looked at Jiang Lingyi, and froze for a moment.

"Stop looking."

Jiang Lingyi gasped for breath, then said helplessly, "There's a slight problem with the dice rolls, isn't there?"

Bai Xi looked down at Jiang Lingyi in the boat and the obvious blood hole in her right chest.

"The lung lobe was punctured during the final salvo."

Jiang Lingyi explained, "I lost eight points of health. The key is that this place is different from the usual running groups. If something like my lungs gets damaged, it's practically the same as a slow death..."

Jiang Lingyi is currently under a buff. She loses a little health every now and then, and the event will accelerate this process. It's estimated that she can last for a maximum of one hour.

Bai Xi looked at the other two. The injuries on Shuangtu and Mutouren were not serious; although they had been hit, none of the wounds were in critical areas.

"Then you're going to tear up the card?"

Bai Xi asked in surprise, and Jiang Lingyi shook her head:

"It's not that bad, it's just that the group won't be able to get the Interlude growth this time. If you guys clear the game, my rewards will still be normal."

"As for the main body card, there's no issue of tearing it up; it's simply starting over from the original state of the main body."

Jiang Lingyi waved her hand dismissively and said.

"Wow, does that mean we'll be missing a big brother later? How are we going to fight these murlocs?"

"Damn you! Weren't you the god of war just now?"

Jiang Lingyi replied without hesitation, extending her hand to Bai Xi:

Instead of wasting time gossiping, why not do something useful? Bring me the axe.

Bai Xi obediently handed over the axe, his other eye looking worriedly at the approaching fishmen.

A boat cannot be rowed fast enough.

He sighed, pulled a few pieces of cloth from the sack, wrapped them haphazardly around his arm, and then gave the wounds of the two rabbits and the wooden man a simple bandage.

"Can they really win?"

"How would I know?"

Jiang Lingyi, holding the axe, rolled her eyes: "Logically speaking, as a close friend, I should be hoping that the KP will tear up your card as soon as possible... But I still hope that this raid can pass, because the rewards will be higher and the subsequent modules will be easier."

"So, I'll try to help out as much as I can before I leave."

As Jiang Lingyi spoke, she slammed the axe down hard on the boat, causing it to rock slightly.

Undeterred by the dulling of the axe, Jiang Lingyi chopped at the wooden boat, cutting off the top ring of the boat for timber, and then continued cutting with practiced ease.

Soon, another long, flat wooden stick appeared in Jiang Lingyi's hand.

However, at this moment, Jiang Lingyi was even having trouble breathing.

She glanced at the health bar and shook her head helplessly. She was practically down to her last sliver of health; it was lucky she hadn't fainted.

She tossed the stick to Bai Xi, then pointed to herself and then to the sea.

"Understood."

Bai Xi nodded, and then saw Jiang Lingyi close her eyes. It seemed that a stream of data flashed by, and then an announcement appeared.

[Player Jiang Shuiyiyi has torn up the card]

Looking at Jiang Lingyi, who had lost all life, Bai Xi turned back to the Deep Ones who were relentlessly pursuing them and sighed.

"This is really giving me a headache..."

He muttered to himself, then shook his head and beckoned to Shuangtu, "Come on, let's throw her into the sea first."

The two rabbits nodded.

This is something that must be done. Leaving the body for too long could cause problems, and the unnecessary weight gain is also unacceptable at this point in the voyage.

Besides, it's just a character card, so why all the camaraderie? It's just a casual game.

Bai Xi didn't take advantage of the situation, which is only because Jiang Lingyi hasn't done anything to offend him recently.

"One, two, three, let's go!"

With a splash, Jiang Lingyi sank into the sea, which also meant that the number of players remaining had officially reached three.

The fight will be tough from here on out.

"The situation is quite clear now."

After thinking for a while, Bai Xi finally spoke up: "This prison is probably some kind of place where sacrifices are gathered. I guess the reason it's dangerous is that these Deep Ones regularly sacrifice prisoners to Boss K."

"Then something unexpected happened recently, and Kroos dreamed about her ex-husband Hastur, and that's probably how it ended..."

"What the hell is that?"

Listening to Bai Xi's unofficial history, the wooden man rowing the boat with all his might was a little bewildered.

Is this the Cthulhu Mythos I know? Why is it written like this in my memory?

"Small details, not important."

Bai Xi waved his hand: "The key is how we get out of here now. This module probably won't end until we completely shake off these Deep Ones."

"She did her best before tearing up the card. We gamers can't let our teammates down, right?"

Bai Xi whistled and picked up the oar, but Shuang Tu snatched it from his hand.

"I'll handle this; my hand isn't injured. You're stronger in combat, so go to the back and defend against the Deep Ones."

She spoke without turning her head, gazing silently ahead. Bai Xi was slightly taken aback, then grinned happily.

"Alright, then I'll gladly accept your offer."

Picking up his axe, Bai Xi watched the approaching Deep One.

After some of the weight was removed and an oar was added, the boat moved much faster, but it still couldn't keep up with these natural-born aquatic hunters.

They are getting closer.

But at this moment, Bai Xi simply stared quietly at the deep-sea divers, watching them approach the ship little by little until they finally reached the stern.

So the first deep-diving creature leaped out of the water, trying to jump onto the boat, and Bai Xi, without hesitation, swung his axe:

"I've been waiting for you for so long!"

[Brawling check score = 73/80, successful]

【伤害检定=1d6+1d4=4+2=6点伤害】

What came head-on was a passionate strike!

As if that wasn't enough, Bai Xi kicked another Deep One that had jumped onto the ship, and without hesitation, smashed the axe into the face of the next Deep One.

It was as if a silent cry was echoing in my heart.

eighty! eighty!

One by one, the deep-diving creatures came ashore, only to be ruthlessly kicked over by Bai Xi. They were scratched a couple of times, but nothing serious.

The first wave of attacks finally ended when all the Deep Ones were kicked down by Bai Xi. The Deep Ones were all wounded, but they continued their relentless pursuit.

"How long will this take to cut it down?"

For a moment, Bai Xi had a headache. He felt like he was going to be worn down and die here.

There must be a way to solve this problem once and for all...

Bai Xi was pondering this in his heart, but just then, Shuangtu's reminder rang out again:

"Be careful!"

"They're coming up again!"
