I got an S-level talent in the apocalypse, and I will lead Blue Star to rise

Chapter 222 Statue
As soon as they left the village, Ning Jun called Xiaobai over.

Before entering Niutou Village, they were afraid of encountering danger, so they did not let Xiaobai follow in, but let it guard outside the village.

I originally thought that I would only stay in the village for half an hour at most, but I ended up wasting so much time.

Fortunately, Xiaobai's nose is very sensitive and he can fly again.

So when they walked out of the village, Xiaobai followed their scent and came over.

As soon as they met, he started rubbing against Ning Jun and acting coquettishly, as if blaming her for abandoning him.

Ning Jun quickly took out Xiaobai's favorite food from his backpack and started to coax it.

Fortunately, Xiaobai has always been easy to coax.

Xiao Qichen frowned when he saw this scene.

He felt that Ning Jun had treated the tiger too pampered.

But he didn't say it.

Because he knew that Ning Jun would be angry about this.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Xiaobai doesn't like him.

When entering the game, Xiaobai felt no kindness or warmth from him. He was cold and stone-like.

The man and the tiger tacitly kept a safe distance from each other and were even unwilling to talk.

After leaving the village, Ning Jun found that his chat function could be used again.

"Sure enough, this village is so strange."

Without further ado, they immediately rushed to the last place.

But what they didn't know was that they just happened to pass by the village chief of Niutou Village who had just finished his patrol.

Although the surrounding jungle was dense, blocking their view.

But Ning Jun would occasionally fly in the air with a hang glider, using big trees to cover his figure and observe the direction.

The entire village was not large, and they soon discovered a strange place.

Like Niutou Village, this place is a very strange open space.

However, the shape is a very standard hexagram.

Ning Yun and the others did not rashly step into such a strange terrain.

Because in the middle, there is a very strange statue.

The statue is neither human nor minotaur.

Its appearance is very strange, with six arms, each holding a different thing, and a pair of legs sitting cross-legged, looking like a weird evil god.

Its expression was even stranger: its eyes were closed, but there was a "compassionate" smile on the corner of its mouth.

But in Ning Jun's eyes, that was not mercy, but evil.

In front of this statue, there are three bowls. There is a piece of meat in the middle bowl, a bowl of water on the left, and a bowl of grain on the right.

It seems that it was offered as a sacrifice by the people of Niutou Village.

"Should we go in?" Ning Jun couldn't help but ask as he looked at the strange scene.

She was really afraid that something weird would happen after she walked in.

But now that it has come to this, it is impossible not to go in.

Ning Jun was about to step in when he was stopped by a hand.

"I'll go in, you stay here to support me." Xiao Qichen stopped in front of her and took out a rope.

"I'll tie the rope around my waist. If I'm in danger or something weird happens, you can pull me out."

Ning Yun objected, "I'm lighter than you. If we're really in danger, you'll be able to pull me back faster."

But this proposal was rejected by Xiao Qichen.

"If we really encounter danger, I have a higher chance of surviving than you." He is more powerful than Ning Yun, and they both know this.

Without waiting for Ning Jun to say anything, Xiao Qichen tied one end of the rope to the big tree next to him and the other end around his waist.

Ning Jun looked at him worriedly, having a bad feeling.

Before entering, Xiao Qichen looked at her deeply and said, "If you find that something is wrong with me, cut the rope."

He is not afraid of wild beasts or monsters, but he is most afraid of encountering illusions that would make him lose his mind.

By then, he would be the one in the most danger. Ning Jun's expression was somewhat reluctant, but under Xiao Qichen's gaze, he nodded heavily, "Okay."

step.
two steps
Xiao Qichen entered this special area. Ning Jun stared at him closely and tried to send him a message.

Sure enough, it shows that the message sending failed.

After taking a dozen steps, nothing seemed to be unusual.

But Ning Jun's heart was always in his throat as he watched Xiao Qichen come to the statue.

He didn't look at the statue, but turned around and smiled at Ning Jun, trying to comfort her.

Before Ning Jun could smile back at him, Xiao Qichen had already reached out to the statue.

Ning Yun held his breath and dared not make any sound.

Even Xiaobai was staring at Xiao Qichen, motionless.

Fortunately, nothing strange happened.

Xiao Qichen picked up the statue, looked at it carefully, and found that it was really just an ordinary wooden statue.

Strange, isn't it this statue that's causing this trouble?
He shook the statue in his hand and felt something was wrong.

It seems a bit light and airy
He shook it a little, and there seemed to be a slight sound inside.

Xiao Qichen did not do anything else, but returned with the statue.

Seeing that nothing happened, Ning Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

"This statue doesn't seem to be dangerous, it..." Before she finished her words, she saw a horrifying scene.

One of the eyes that was originally closed opened without me noticing when!
"No! Xiao Qichen, go back quickly!" Ning Jun shouted.

She noticed that the statue's eyes grew wider the further it moved from its base in the middle of the clearing.

Her reminder made Xiao Qichen stop completely.

When he left just now, he held the statue in his hand and didn't look at it carefully.

Now when I picked it up again, I found that one of its eyes was fully open and the other eye was half open.

But he was less than 5 meters away from Ning Jun.

In other words, as long as he walked out of this air, the statue's eyes would open completely.

By then, something bad is bound to happen.

Ning Jun's face was full of confusion. "Put it back. If the mission fails, then it fails."

She had a strong premonition that if they continued, something life-threatening would happen.

"Anyway, we're not short of supplies right now, so there's no need to fight so hard."

At the critical moment, Ning Jun didn't want Xiao Qichen to take risks alone, and she could only watch.

Xiao Qichen, on the other hand, was a little confused. "It's just the last step. I don't want to give up."

"Why?" Ning Jun shook his head, "This is just a mission copy."

Xiao Qichen looked at the statue in his hand. What he didn't tell Ning Jun was that he had seen a similar statue before.

That's related to the secret of this game.

When he saw this statue, Xiao Qichen decided that he must complete the task.

Even if the price is his life.

He knew that if this survival game did not end, Ning Jun would never get the peace and tranquility she wanted.

He didn't dare to gamble whether he would have another chance to do it again.

This time, they must figure out the secret of the survival game and shut it down once and for all!

Under Ning Jun's puzzled gaze, Xiao Qichen took out a knife and cut the rope on his body, then threw the statue to the ground.

"Snapped!"

The statue broke into pieces, and an inconspicuous gray bead fell out.

Then, the bead emitted a dazzling light.

Ning Jun subconsciously closed her eyes until the light disappeared. She blinked hard before daring to open them.

"Xiao Qichen?"
