Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

Upon hearing this question, everyone gave a tacit answer.

There was absolutely no greed or desire for high dungeon ratings.

This instance made them a little scared.

Forget about the Ghost Queen, and forget about the ghost horde of Misty Mountain; the mere fact that there are tens of thousands of secondary killing ghosts in Red Village is enough to terrify them.

If such a huge bomb explodes, who can withstand it?

If you can run, you should run as fast as you can!

Only a pervert like Fan Xiao would dare to deliberately step on a landmine.

……

"Village chief, you're not a man of your word."

Inside the temple, Fan Xiao looked at the village chief of Hongcun and said, "You've chosen to cooperate, yet you haven't revealed all the information... I hate people who like to lie the most."

"..."

The village chief glanced at the statue of the Ghost Queen, then looked away and said, "Let's talk outside."

Fan Xiao said he had no objection.

The two walked through the busy villagers of Hongcun and arrived outside the temple.

The village chief glanced at the sky and warned, "It's almost night. Although the Ghost Queen won't wake up for another eight hours, her subconscious will come out and become active at night, and her activities won't be limited to the village. You'd better escape now, or it will be dangerous!"

Simply revealing the dangers to players will not trigger any "information taboos".

So he said it without any psychological burden.

Fan Xiao said casually, "I wasn't afraid before, and I'm even less afraid now. Once players acquire the identity of a Red Village resident, the items will be unlocked, as you, the village chief, probably already know."

Besides being able to unleash a sea of ​​blood with "blood armor," creating a storm of chaotic will and protecting one's spirit.

Now, he has another powerful means of mental protection—the B-grade item "Gate to the Incredible Kingdom".

With double protection, he felt even more confident.

The village chief shook his head: "The closer the Ghost Queen gets to her awakening time, the stronger her subconscious power will become. The first two nights were just minor trouble."

"I know the Ghost Queen is very strong; I can tell from your attitude."

Fan Xiao laughed and said, "Even the unsealing of players' items is probably not for the purpose of defeating the Ghost Queen, but simply to help players escape the fog more easily."

Upon hearing this, the village chief asked in surprise, "Since you know, then why..."

“That’s why I came to ask you,” Fan Xiao interrupted the village chief, “I want to know how to defeat the Ghost Queen? There must be a solution in this instance.”

The village chief stared at Fan Xiao for seven or eight seconds.

Then, he sighed softly and said, "Whether you're after a high reputation or genuinely want to save the people here... take my advice, this risk is really not worth taking. You're very capable, and I'm sure you'll be able to in the future..."

"No need to wait until later, it can be done now."

Fan Xiao interrupted him again, saying, "Village Chief, if you're still worried, I can tell you about my achievements. Don't underestimate me just because I'm only a C-level player. Actually... I've killed quite a few B-level players, and I've even taken down one A-level player. I've also participated in the campaign against S-level players. Shouldn't that be enough to change your mind?"

"..."

The village chief hesitated, wanting to speak but then stopping himself, and after a moment's thought, decided against commenting.

Seeing his reaction, Fan Xiao retorted, "Oh, actually I was just bragging."

"Yes, I can tell." The village chief nodded.

See? People don't believe the truth, they only believe lies. This world is forcing people to become liars... Fan Xiaoyu thought to himself.

Since the village chief was unwilling to talk, he gave up asking and decided to proceed according to the original plan.

Perhaps the Demon Queen is truly invincible.

But common sense is not unbreakable.

There are even players who can clear dungeons by destroying entire kingdoms, and Fan Xiao felt that... he couldn't limit his thinking too much.

If the village chief is unwilling to talk about it, he can carry out some actions himself.

Fortunately, he had an A-grade item, which allowed him to pull off some rather unconventional tactics.

With that in mind, Fan Xiao didn't delay any longer.

Suddenly, a pair of wings sprouted from his back, and his gaze turned towards the direction outside the village.

Just as he was about to take off, the village chief suddenly called out to him, "Wait!"

Fan Xiao turned around.

The village chief said, "The answer you want to know has already been told to you by my great-grandson."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the temple, ignoring Fan Xiao.

it's getting dark.

The subconscious form of the Ghost Queen is about to emerge and become active.

Players can escape from here, but the people of Red Village cannot.

Before danger arrives, they must finish the cleanup work of the ceremony in advance, and then return home to worship.

After all... everyone in Red Village is the Ghost Queen's food reserve.

……

Fan Xiaofei soared into the sky, pondering the village chief's last words.

The clue to completing the third mission was actually hidden in the information revealed by that young man?

With this perspective, he carefully recalled all the details of the boy's words and reasoned in another direction.

Gradually, he discovered some points that he hadn't thought of before.

However, the new discovery made him frown.

He quickly composed himself and murmured, "Mirror."

Chapter 548, Second Mission Completion

"Wind injury!"

Amidst the dense white fog, Owen's low growl echoed.

He noticed the nearby airflow fluctuations and immediately issued an order to completely disrupt the surrounding airflow environment.

The air was like a stringed instrument; under his furious pluck, a large number of wind blades that could even shred iron into dust whistled through the air and slammed into the surface of the monster in front of him.

It was a monster with a human-like appearance, but its size was as large as a small mountain.

giant!

The Cyclops – it has no normal facial features, with one enormous eye taking up most of its face.

Its body was made of an unknown substance, yet it remained completely unharmed by Owen's wind blade attacks.

Seeing this, Owen manipulated the turbulence of the airflow even more meticulously, connecting with the gas inside the giant's body and further controlling it.

The gases transformed into tiny blades, imbued with immense destructive power, which roamed freely within the giant's body, wreaking havoc.

The Cyclops let out a low growl, his voice tinged with pain.

Its eye began to glow purple.

"Watch out! Petrification is coming!"

Tanya shouted a warning and cast a four-second spatial confinement spell on the giant.

At the same time, You Guo also activated his talent—money makes the world go round.

He tore a banknote into pieces, thus gaining the authority to control the giant's behavior.

The deeper and greater the constraint, the lower the chance of success. Therefore, instead of ordering the giant to abandon the attack, he shouted, "Reduce the power!"

On the other side, the giant, restrained by Tanya, froze, unable to get any closer to the group for a precise shot.

However, its movements did not completely stop.

The light in its eyes was still flashing, but it was slower and its power was much weaker.

The next second, the purple light shot forward, launching an indiscriminate attack.

Xu Xuan had already erected a barrier in front of everyone, as dark as night.

The petrifying beam of light collided with the barrier of darkness. After a few seconds of stalemate, the beam of light illuminated, dispelled, and penetrated the darkness, then shone on the group of players behind the darkness.

Fortunately, after this round of confrontation, the players had time to react.

Everyone used their own methods to get away from their original spot.

Unfortunately, the area illuminated by the purple light was too large. Apart from Tanya, who could teleport, the other players dodged it, but not completely.

Players who had already deployed various defensive items still felt their bodies stiffen to varying degrees. The stiffened parts gradually turned a deathly gray and began to petrify.

The petrified area on their bodies expanded further.

"The opportunity has arrived! Attack!"

Xiao Tian, ​​who was next to You Guo, suddenly shouted.

After the previous round of attack and defense, they discovered a pattern—although this giant was powerful and had terrifying resistance, being immune to most abilities, its body would enter a weakened state for a few seconds every time it released the petrifying ray.

Its resistance will be weakened under these conditions.

Therefore, the group devised a battle plan to first harass the enemy, bait out their ultimate moves, and then focus their fire on a coordinated attack.

Xiao Tian seized the opportunity to activate the item: "Touch of Death!"

A massive, hooded phantom appeared behind the Cyclops, its pale, cold hands silently resting on the giant's shoulders.

In the next instant, the giant's life force began to drain away violently, constantly being stripped away by the phantom of death.

Just as the giant was about to resist, You Guo tore up a banknote and shouted, "Stay there and don't move!"

While activating his talent, he also unleashed his attack item: "The Wailing Howls of the Dead!"

A series of wailing cries suddenly rang out from nowhere.

The sound caused a strong sense of psychological discomfort and stirred up the surrounding thick fog.

At that moment, the Cyclops felt itself entangled by the wailing—the sound coiled around its mind, causing its mental strength to rapidly decline.

The other players weren't idle either; they seized the rare opportunity to attack, communicating and launching a series of ranged attack items.

"Severing ties with a sword!"

"The Black Goat's Favor!"

"You are a fat orange cat..."

The Cyclops, already weakened, was rapidly losing its life force under the combined attacks of various abilities.

Thump—its gradually cracking body suddenly collapsed to the ground, shattering into a pile of fragments.

The enormous eye blinked a few times, then closed reluctantly.

Owen and his group did not stop, and continued to attack the giant's mutilated corpse several more times. Only after seeing that the corpse did not move did they stop.

After the attack ended, You Guo quickly took out a sharp blade made of special material from his storage space and cut off all the petrified flesh from his body.

He endured the pain without crying out, and afterwards took several bottles of healing medicine to recover from his injuries.

Others followed suit and immediately began treating the petrified parts of their bodies.

In an instant, a strong smell of blood spread through the thick fog.

Perhaps worried that the smell of blood would attract new monsters, the group treated their wounds and set off immediately without lingering.

"Luckily, there are many of us! Otherwise... who knows how long we would have been held up by this monster?"

"I can't shake the feeling of fear," Canglang said.

Once their bodies begin to transform into secondary mountain spirits, the mist no longer obscures their senses.

Although their vision was still greatly affected, their hearing, smell, and other senses were functioning normally, preventing them from becoming "blind" and unable to perceive anything.

Faced with the attack from the mountain spirit in the mist, they were finally able to react and fight back.
