The system message came unexpectedly. Mingshu was stunned and didn't even hear the words of repair.

The private chat dialog box popped up again, and Xia Zhu also received the system prompt just now.

[Private chat] Xia Zhu: Is the NPC with wrong parameters the leader of the sea snake?

Mingshu didn't reply, and frowned slightly as he looked at the two new system prompts.

Xiu Ruo found that he was absent-minded and stretched out his arms to hug him: "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

The two of them had a lot of trouble last night. When Mingshu woke up, his eyes were still red and he didn't have the energy to speak.

Xiu Ruan rubbed his waist and said, "Why did you let Xia Zhu come in? You are not allowed to let Pearl come in." The yard was so big and there was no extra

room. He didn't have a good impression of Xia Zhu.

As for the pearl, since it refused to come back in the first place, then don't come back.

Mingshu buried his face in his arms and said nothing, still looking at the system panel.

There is a line of small text in the corner that says "Skills are being installed and will be available later."

Soon, another system prompt popped up.

[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the exclusive skill under the current copy: [Summon Fish School]! Usage time limit: [119:59:59]]

[Warm reminder: The skill use time limit is five days, please use it properly. ]

[Private chat] Xia Zhu: I got the skill, what is it called, Infinite Power, and gave me a trident as a gift. What about you?

[Private Chat] Xia Zhu: This usage time limit allows us to get rid of NPCs with incorrect parameters within five days, right?

Xia Zhu's words were also what Mingshu was thinking. The first thought that came to his mind was to return to the Sea Snake Clan with Xiu Yu.

When the players were tortured and angry by the mission, they wanted to use extreme methods to destroy the dungeon. The system just sent skills, implying that players only need to kill the NPC with wrong parameters to open the dungeon exit.

The system prompt did not say which NPC had wrong parameters, but to be on the safe side, outside players would definitely kill all NPCs.

The assigned skills are random, and the players join forces in case they can't even defeat the repairman.

The mermaid clan is no longer safe, and returning to the sea serpent clan may delay it for a while.

Mingshu hugged Xiu Han tightly and raised his head: "Let's go back to the Sea Serpent Clan... I don't want to participate in any election, how about we go back quietly..." It won't

work if other players see it. According to the plot, the leader of the Sea Serpent Clan should stay with the Mermaid Clan until A new clan leader is elected and leaving hastily will arouse suspicion.

Xiu Chen didn't know what Mingshu was worried about and looked down at him: "Why don't you want to participate again?" Mingshu used his venom to dye the fish tail. Isn't this the reason for doing this?

Moreover, he has not yet figured out Xiyu's true identity. In his memory, Xiyu has no father or mother. He grew up alone and has never left the mermaid tribe.

He was planning to have several subordinates go to the mermaid tribe's territory today to search for everything about Xiyu and see if he had any connection with the sea snake tribe.

So Xiuyu was willing to take Mingshu back, but he still wanted to stay for a while longer.

Mingshu didn't know how to explain it to him, so he hugged him tightly and said in a low voice: "I just don't want to stay here anymore... I want to go back with you."

Tell Xiu Yue the system and the copy, will he understand? In short, the five days before the skill usage time limit has passed. Without the skill, even if the players join forces, it will be extremely difficult to kill Xiu Xuan.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Xiu Ruo touched his cheek: "What's wrong? Then go back, tomorrow..."

"No," Mingshu held his hand tightly, "Let's leave today, right away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhu's private message popped up again.

[Private chat] Xia Zhu: Something is wrong! There's something wrong with those NPCs too!

[Private Chat] Xia Zhu: They also knew that the leader of the sea snake had the wrong parameters, and they told the players!

Mingshu glanced at the two sentences sent by Xia Zhu, and suddenly there was movement outside the hospital.

Xiu Huan suddenly raised his eyes, looking very unhappy.

He wrapped Mingshu in a quilt, put on his mask and stood up: "What's the matter?"

The sea snake soldier outside didn't answer, but opened the door directly and came in with the intention of attacking.

With a frosty face, Xiu Yue raised his hand and waved them away, saying in a cold voice: "Want to rebel?"

Several sea snake soldiers seemed to be stunned, dragging their injured bodies to get up, raised their weapons and continued towards Xiu Yue's direction. attack.

Xiuyu frowned and simply killed these sea snakes.

For some reason, there was noisy noise outside the water wall. Hearing that it was getting closer, Xiu Wan closed the door to prevent the smell of blood from the yard from drifting in.

He returned to the bedside, found a robe and put it on for Mingshu: "You stay here, I'll go out and take a look."

Xiuyu didn't want to worry Mingshu, so he didn't tell him about the abnormalities of the sea snakes.

Mingshu knew better than him, holding his hand tightly, his face turned pale: "Don't go... they want to kill you."

Everyone, including players and NPCs, their goal is to repair.

Xiu Huan didn't know why, so he wanted to appease Ming Shu first and tell him not to worry.

"Bang--"

There was another loud noise outside the courtyard, and something collapsed.

The ground covered with a layer of smooth rocks suddenly became wet, and seawater poured in continuously from the gaps in the stone slabs, rising up to the ankles in an instant.

Xiu Wan's face was really ugly at this time. He hugged the uneasy Ming Shu into his arms, touched his hair and said: "The stone pillar is broken." The

air in the water wall was supported by the stone pillar. Now the stone pillar is damaged and the sea water is very dangerous. This place will soon be flooded.

Someone outside is attacking Shizhu, trying to force him to show up.

Based on what Mingshu said just now, Xiuyu thought that the mermaid tribe wanted to do harm to him.

He suppressed his anger and tightened Mingshu's robe: "I will take you back now."

Return to the Sea Serpent Clan first, and there will be many opportunities to settle accounts with these mermaids in the future.

But Ming Shu shook his head: "No... no, it's not safe to go back."

He spoke incoherently and looked like he was about to cry: "We can't go back, believe me... they all want to kill you." He

thought he would quietly return to the Sea Serpent Clan. It can be delayed for a while, but now the system NPC targets are also being repaired, and nowhere is safe.

Xiu Yu responded without hesitation: "Okay, I believe you, let's leave here and never go back."

Ming Shu must know something, but now is not a good time to ask.

The water surface is getting higher and higher, and many mermaids are gathering outside.

Some of them were NPCs. Their faces were expressionless and their movements were slightly stiff. They fell straight into the water wall and forgot to change their forms. They struggled to crawl forward with their fish tails swinging in the air.

A player laughed when he saw this: "This is too stupid. Why doesn't the system make the defense measures smarter?"

"Don't take it lightly," another player warned, "That NPC inside will definitely be difficult to deal with."

Otherwise, the system can just wipe out the erroneous NPC, or directly remake it, which won't take much time. But now it has to rely on the players' power and even give them skills.

The system must have been unable to deal with this npc, so it made this decision.

Because of this, players did not dare to approach easily. They first knocked down the stone pillars inside and let the NPCs explore the way first.

The water wall was crumbling, and several mermaid NPCs quickly swam in from below. Some players were eager to move in and have a look.

At this moment, the stone pillar collapsed completely, and the waves swept in from the inside out.

A giant snake appeared in the water, and with a flick of its tail, it drove away most of the mermaids.

A voice shouted: "It's this snake!"

The mermaid NPC only knew how to move forward recklessly, but the players did not.

The waves soon calmed down, and a sound like a horn sounded faintly.

This sound was very harsh to the giant snake, like sharp thorns piercing the top of its head, provoking the fragile nerves inside.

At the same time, several rocks and some sharp weapons hit the giant snake. The giant snake was furious and slapped the group of mermaids with its tail.

Several mermaids in front were photographed towards the rocks and immediately vomited blood. This scene made the players flinch slightly.

Mingshu hid in the giant snake's mouth and quietly used his skills to summon the fish.

However, the group of players led by them quickly regained their composure, and the school of fish summoned by Mingshu could not last long. One player erupted a strange blue flame in the sea water, and swallowed the school of fish in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that the flames were about to burn the tail of the giant snake, Mingshu said anxiously: "Let's leave quickly."

Players have too many types of skills, and there are many NPCs who don't care about life or death, no matter how close they are, something might happen if they stay.

The trumpet sound continued, and the giant snake forced it to endure, turned around and swam away.

Upon seeing this, the player quickly said: "He wants to escape! Stop him!"

At this time, a giant white jellyfish suddenly appeared, its thin tentacles accurately grabbed the mermaid who blew the horn, and smashed it against the reef.

The horn sound suddenly stopped, and the sudden change caught the players off guard, and several more were captured by giant jellyfish.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the giant snake had already swam far away.

The giant jellyfish didn't stay much. It rolled up the fine sand on the ground and threw it back. The turbid water blocked the players' sight. When they tried to chase it, they found that there were no traces of the giant snake and jellyfish in the water.

One player said in frustration: "You're just running away now? The skill has a five-day time limit. Where are we going to find it in these five days?" The

entire sea area is so big, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Wait a minute," another player said, gesturing for them to look, "those NPCs know."

The mermaid NPCs were still swimming forward numbly as before.

One of the mermaids was stopped, and the player asked: "Do you know where the snake escaped just now?"

"Yes," the mermaid NPC replied, raising his hand and pointing into the distance, "over there."

He couldn't tell the specific details. Position, players can follow.

It's just that these NPCs seem to be the most ordinary fish, and their swimming speed is a bit slow. In short, it is impossible to catch up immediately.

"Let's go," the player who spoke earlier looked around at everyone, "If you want to get out early, don't waste time."

-

The giant snake swam forward for a long time, and through the slightly opened gap, Ming Shu saw Pearl following.

Pearl was also an NPC. He was worried and whispered to Xiu Rui, fearing that Pearl would also take action against Xiu Rui.

Fortunately, after swimming for a while, there was nothing strange about the pearl.

After an unknown amount of time, Mingshu felt that the giant snake gradually slowed down and finally stopped.

The giant snake landed on the bottom of the sea and carefully opened its mouth to let Ming Shu out.

Pearl was beside it. It also opened its body, stretched its tentacles into its soft cavity, and brought out a familiar figure, Xia Zhu.

The giant snake was alert again, facing the dark vertical pupils, Xia Zhu waved his hands quickly: "I have no malice, I have no malice! I am different from them!"

He originally hid the pearl behind and planned to adapt to the situation, but the pearl suddenly grew bigger Attacked several players and habitually took them away as well.

Mingshu hugged the giant snake and said, "Xia Zhu is a friend, he won't do anything."

The giant snake then looked away and returned to its half-snake form in the water.

Xiu Rui looked around: "It should be safe here."

This is an unfamiliar sea area, and there is no smell of any living creatures nearby. Even if there is, the appearance of giant snakes and giant jellyfish will scare them away.

Pearl quickly shrunk and swam over, circling Mingshu several times to make sure he was okay.

Then it reluctantly circled around Xiu Yuan, and its tentacles lightly touched his face.

Xiu Rui waved it away: "Go and keep watch nearby."

Pearl was reluctant, but knew something was wrong, so she turned around and walked away.

Xiu Sui's expression was not very good, and Ming Shu asked worriedly: "Are you injured?"

"No," Xiu Sui frowned, "I just have a headache."

Those horn sounds made him very uncomfortable, and the memories he had just merged seemed to be there again. Signs of confusion.

He closed his eyes, and the mark between his brows became deeper and deeper. Mingshu pressed his temples for him: "Then let's rest here." As long as it lasts five days,

all players' skills will become ineffective after five days.

Xiu Rui didn't object, took Ming Shu's hand and kissed it: "Okay."

Xia Zhu tried hard to be friendly, and went with Pearl to find soft water plants nearby and spread them on the ground to let Xiu Rui and Ming Shu rest. .

Xiu Rui took out a palm-sized stone and placed it on the ground. The stone formed a circular water wall in the sea water, and the water wall was filled with air.

He sat inside, leaning against the rocks and closing his eyes to meditate.

Mingshu was held by Xiu Chen, still wrapped in his robe, with a small fish tail exposed and soaked in the water.

It was very quiet here, with Pearl and Xia Zhu guarding nearby. Mingshu gradually relaxed and fell asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up, the sky was dark and Xiu Rui was stroking his hair with gentle and slow movements.

Mingshu raised his head and rubbed his palm: "Are you feeling better?"

Xiuyu didn't answer and looked at Mingshu with an incomprehensible look.

He lowered his head to kiss Mingshu, and tightened his arms around him, with both eagerness and restraint.

After retreating, Xiu Yu brushed Mingshu's lips with his fingertips and whispered, "Still so good."

Mingshu blinked and noticed something keenly.

Xiu Yuan looked down and stroked the smooth scales on Mingshu's tail: "It's a small fish this time? It's so beautiful."

Mingshu's breath stopped, and an almost impossible thought came to his mind.

"You..." His heartbeat quickened, and he asked anxiously: "Are you Xiu Rui?"

Xiu Rui pinched his cheek gently: "Yes, and no."

Looking at this face that was 70% or 80% similar. , Mingshu mustered up his courage and whispered: "Then you are Yuan Chen, right?"

When he said this, tears quickly gathered in his eyes, and he was about to cry.
