MTL - Welcome To the World of Strength [Unlimited Stream]-Chapter 163 maze
Then, Jiang Yu asked them, "When did you lose your eyes?"
"It was probably yesterday."
Jiang Yu continued to ask: "Then, do you have any other impressions? For example, a special voice, or someone coming over? After all, you also said that your ears are very sharp, so you should be able to hear some movements."
The three sisters thought for a while, "No..."
"No particular sound."
"That is, if there is a sound, it is impossible for us not to hear it."
Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling that she was suddenly at the scene of a crime and was assigned to the detective card.
But it's much harder than a detective.
Jiang Yu sighed inwardly.
But this is also a clue that it is possible to get information, she can't just leave it alone.
So Jiang Yu continued to ask: "But the eyes won't run away by themselves?"
The three sisters did not speak.
Jiang Yu asked again: "Didn't you see anything wrong at that time? Although only one person can use the eyes, it also means that at least one person can see."
The three sisters became a little more excited: "No! It happened to be when we were changing our eyes. During the handover, the eyes were taken away."
The one on the left: "It's because you didn't connect it well, otherwise you wouldn't be robbed."
The one on the right: "Maybe you didn't do it right, I stretched out my hand to catch the eye, if it wasn't for you, how could I lose the eye?"
Then it started arguing again.
Jiang Yu pressed her forehead with a headache.
But she noticed a problem, "How do you hand over your eyes, can you show me?"
Hearing this, the three sisters performed live and restored the situation at that time.
The old woman on the right who was about to catch the eyes directly stretched out her palms, waiting for the other party to put the eyes over.
And the one on the left pretended to pinch his eyes, rubbing his hands to find the other's palm.
Because they have no eyes and cannot see things, they need to be caressed during the handover process.
Also the same...
If there are other things fishing in troubled waters, it is very likely to deceive the eyes.
After all, if the eyes really fell to the ground, then they would be able to hear subtle movements.
But the problem is, who can trick their hearing into walking in?
Even Jiang Yu's own light and almost silent footsteps could not be hidden from their ears.
After checking the surrounding situation and their own situation to completely eliminate the possibility of their eyes accidentally falling somewhere, Jiang Yu was ready to set off.
"I will help you find it. By the way, I would like to ask other people if there is one. I hope you don't forget to trade."
"Don't worry, just help us find the eyes."
"We will definitely help you."
Jiang Yu didn't rush to look for the eyes, but went to the next neighbor.
After all, the other party may know something, and she also has to think about herself.
Furthermore... the only ones who can steal things in this maze are the npcs in the maze.
Not long after, Jiang Yu arrived at another place.
To her dismay, this time it was not a human being, but a peacock.
The peacock seemed to be sleeping, with both eyes closed. Even if Jiang Yu came over, the other party would not be moved. Compared to the vigilance of the three sisters over there, the peacock seemed... very gentle and harmless.
But also only looks.
Jiang Yu would not underestimate these npcs.
But whether it is the river **** or the three sisters, Jiang Yu can see that not all npcs in this dungeon are monsters with red names. If she can, she can also reach a deal with them.
So to some extent, npc can communicate and coexist peacefully.
What about this peacock?
Jiang Yu noticed that there were a lot of treasures behind the peacock, shining brightly in the clear day at this moment.
No, even in the dark, they seem to radiate light, attracting everyone's attention.
But Jiang Yu's goal is not treasure.
She called softly, "Hello, Mr. Peacock? ...or Miss."
I don't know if it was her illusion, but the peacock's tail moved slightly.
It's just that the peacock didn't give Jiang Yu any response.
When Jiang Yu shouted a lot more, the other party remained the same, as if falling into a deep sleep.
Helpless, Jiang Yu had no choice but to continue to move forward.
Of course, she still remained vigilant, just letting the bat explore the way.
However, when the bat flew in front of the peacock, it suddenly went limp and fell from midair.
Jiang Yu retreated vigilantly, looking at the peacock in surprise.
This time... it wasn't her illusion.
She saw the opponent's tail slowly unfolding.
what's the situation?
Why did the bat die just now?
Although it was his own bat, it happened so fast that even Jiang Yu couldn't find out the cause of death.
And she didn't share the five senses with the little bat just now, so she was as confused as an outsider at the moment.
but-
Jiang Yu held her breath slightly, looking at the other party's tail that was about to unfold, feeling a bad premonition in her heart.
Jiang Yu is a person who believes in premonitions.
Why are bats being attacked?
It is close to the peacock.
But the peacock stood there quietly, with its eyes closed, why did it still attack?
Suddenly, Jiang Yu figured out something.
The moment before the peacock opened its tail, she closed her eyes.
At the same time, Peacock opened [all] eyes.
All that means... not just its two normal eyes, but the peacock's "pseudo" eyes on its tail.
Those are not so-called shapes that appear due to reflected light, but real, usable eyes.
After turning on the screen, all eyes are put into use.
Its tail was very big, green and blue in color, and there were countless thirsty eyes densely distributed on it. They opened at the same time, turned around, and aimed at Jiang Yu together.
Even with her eyes closed, Jiang Yu felt like she was being targeted.
At the moment when she closed her eyes, Jiang Yu suddenly thought, how can she conclude that the peacock has its eyes closed?
Having seen pictures of peacocks, Jiang Yu naturally knew the feathers on the peacock's tail that looked like eyes. It's not that no one has misunderstood these, Jiang Yu also had the same experience.
In reality, this is the rare phenomenon of the peacock opening its screen, but in the dungeon... this is the "killer feature" that requires people to be vigilant.
Reminiscent of the strange shape of the bat and the peacock with its eyes closed, Jiang Yu had such a guess and intuition.
Although it is inconvenient to close your eyes, fortunately, Jiang Yu is not very dependent on vision.
She thought of the pile of treasures behind the peacock, maybe the other party was guarding the treasures, and it misunderstood the approach of the bat just now.
Then do you want to threaten him with treasure?
Because this peacock doesn't seem to be able to communicate.
So, Jiang Yu started to act.
Because she can rely on the bat's ultrasonic waves to avoid and stand, although Jiang Yu can't really see things, everything around her comes up in her mind one by one.
…
When Jiang Yu forced the peacock to retreat and stood in front of the treasure, this war also meant that she had won the victory.
It seems that the peacock's weapon is its eyes, other than that, there is no other means of attack.
But even if there is, Jiang Yu is not worried, because even if she dies now, she is not really dead, but she will be more or less weak in the environment during the day.
"I have no intention of encroaching on your treasure, I am just a passing traveler, the purpose is to get out of the maze, and at the same time help others find the lost eyes, I have no malice towards you, if you did not attack suddenly, I would not do these things. "
"I tried to communicate with you just now, but you didn't answer, did you?"
But then again, can it communicate with people?
Jiang Yu thought for a moment.
"Human." An indistinguishable neutral voice came from the opposite side, and it was the peacock who spoke.
Jiang Yu was relieved.
"Put down the treasure, leave now, spare you not to die."
Jiang Yu: ...
"If you have any means to put me to death, you have already used it just now. I don't think you will hold back from me who made an attacking posture, do you? So why are you able to say such a thing now? words?"
Peacock was silent for a moment.
Jiang Yu: "You can kill any approaching bat, let alone me, a human being who you consider an enemy."
Peacock: "You released the bat." That's why it did it.
Jiang Yu: "Look, so you wanted to kill me from the beginning, so the reason why you don't kill me now is because you can't."
The peacock stopped talking again.
Jiang Yu said: "And I really don't mean anything malicious, my purpose is to get out of the maze, and I came here to ask for clues.
Ah, by the way, if possible, I would also like to ask if you have seen the eyes and teeth of the three sisters not far from here? Their eyes are gone. "
The peacock seems to be judging the credibility of her words.
"No one has ever been able to leave this maze."
Jiang Yu pursed her lips: "I have to give it a try, and I have to leave."
If you don't leave, you will be trapped here to death.
"Maybe you don't know, but do others?"
The peacock didn't say anything, just folded its wings, "I see, I misunderstood you, human. You can open your eyes now."
Jiang Yu didn't blindly listen to its words, but tested it with a little bat without any trace, and then opened her eyes.
The peacock had folded its wings at this moment, "I know the three sisters you mentioned, but I don't know where their eyes are."
Jiang Yu nodded helplessly.
"But—" Peacock's voice changed. "I can lend my eyes."
Jiang Yu widened her eyes in astonishment, but she didn't expect such an operation, "Then do you have any conditions?"
Peacock said: "Someone stole my jewelry before, as long as you help me get it back, I will give you six eyes."
It's a good deal.
But... "Stealing again?"
Jiang Yu was wondering if it was the same person.
"Do you know who it is?"
The peacock was more reliable than the three sisters, it pointed in a direction, "It's a shadow monster, you have to be careful, it's very powerful, of course, it's also very powerful in escaping."
Shadow monster.
You can tell what kind of thing it is from the name.
If you look at it this way... it should really be the one who stole the thing.
How to steal the eyes without attracting the attention of the three sisters, how to avoid the hundred eyes of the peacock and steal the treasure, here is an explanation.
Because it is a shadow monster, it can hide in the shadows, so it comes and goes without a trace. The three sisters with keen hearing can't find it, and the peacock's tricks can't be used against it.
But in this way, Jiang Yu was also restricted.
It was daytime now, and Jiang Yu was naturally reflected in her own shadow.
Although it is completely unclear how the shadows can be cast without the sun.
But maybe the sun is just hidden by the copy, because I don't want the player to have a compass.
Jiang Yu nodded: "Okay, I will work hard."
At this moment, she felt in a trance that she was not playing a dungeon, but playing a holographic hero rpg game...
This bad sense of déjà vu.
Jiang Yu set off in the direction indicated by the peacock.
But she didn't approach that place rashly.
In addition to determining an effective method and method, Jiang Yu could not disturb the mirror monster.
How can we get rid of the other party?
She has the props to capture, but the shadow monster can use the shadow to escape...
Jiang Yu looked down at her own shadow.
If there is something hidden inside, then you can attack her by surprise. Similarly, it is also tricky for the other party to use her shadow to escape.
It would be fine if there were no shadows.
Suddenly, Jiang Yu thought of a prop she had seen before.
The author has something to say:
This prototype is Argos: a hundred-eyed giant in Greek mythology. There are a hundred eyes on the head, and only one or two eyes are closed when sleeping. Hera sent to monitor Io (the lover of Zeus) who had become a cow, and was later killed by Hermes, the envoy sent by Zeus.
After Argos died, Hera removed his eyes and sprinkled them on her peacock's tail as a decoration. These eyes are still on the peacock's tail (Wikipedia).
