Chapter 501: Jumo Island (Part 7)
"It is said that there is a reckless man in this dynasty, his surname is Mu and his given name is Dai, and he is also known as David Mules..." Feng Bujue's first sentence... doesn't sound like human language.
"What the hell..." Ji Bu read, "A foreigner... He should be surnamed Mules and given name David, right? What does surnamed Mules and given name Dai mean? Is he just making it up for the sake of speaking?"
Brother Jue's narration continued: "... He is a young detective, and he has a good wife named Tracy. Since his transfer, Mules has met a new partner named William Somerset. He is nearly sixty years old, and his face is as black as charcoal. He is originally an African American..."
"Isn't this nonsense... Of course black people have as black as charcoal..." Ji Bu read.
"...That Samoset, a man of great talent and wisdom, will retire from the police force in seven days. On a rainy day, Mules met him at a crime scene, only to see a fat corpse sitting dead at a table in a shabby room, with his face buried in noodles. On the wall behind the refrigerator, there was a message written - Taotie."
"Hey! What is this? The plot seems familiar!" Although there is an "Uncle" in the name of Wastewood Uncle, he is actually only in his early thirties. Strictly x-on:, he is still a homeboy. As a person with a lot of time, he has watched a lot of old movies. Therefore, when Feng Bujue talked about this part, Wastewood Uncle quickly heard the clue...
"The next day, a gold medal lawyer was found dead in the office, blood splattered five steps away, and the word "greed" was written on the ground..." Brother Jue continued.
After saying this, Honghu couldn't help but complain: "Are you going to retell the movie "Seven Deadly Sins" from beginning to end in the voice of Eight Screens..."
"Don't interrupt the audience over there." Feng Bujue stopped and said to Honghu in an impatient tone.
"That's right! Don't be long-winded! If you don't want to listen, just get out of the way." Lesend, who was sitting with his knees hugged, also turned back and glared at Honghu to express his protest.
"Hehe... Hehe..." Honghu's mouth twitched and laughed dryly twice, "Okay, since you are Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai..."
…………
For the next half an hour, Feng Bujue added fuel to the fire, opened his mind, and vividly created the "Eight Screens Version of Seven Deadly Sins".
When he finished speaking. The system prompt also sounded [Side quest completed], and the prompt in the task bar also became [Describe seven crimes to satisfy the "hungry" Lesend, current progress 7/7] and was checked off.
At this time, Tianma Xingkong and Lesend were sitting in exactly the same position (i.e. the state of elementary school students sitting on the playground during sports games), watching Brother Jue with interest. As the story came to an abrupt end, they both had expressions of wanting more...
And Honghu was leaning against a big tree nearby, reciting with a slightly surprised tone: "I actually finished listening..." In fact, he had just wanted to conduct a reconnaissance nearby, but he was unknowingly attracted by Brother Jue's voice and listened to the end.
"Fu--Although it is not a made-up story, it can be told to this extent. It is indeed admirable." Uncle Feicha commented while puffing out cigarettes.
Jibe continued: "Anyway, we don't have to work hard, and we haven't been judged to be passive players. Just treat it as a free show..."
"Ah... I haven't tasted the taste of crime for a long time. I almost forgot... the fresh taste." After a moment, Lesend stood up and sighed, "This period should be enough for me to support for a hundred or eighty years."
"I can see... your life is quite scarce." Feng Bujue said with empty eyes.
"That's right..." Lesend continued, "What else can prisoners do in prison?"
Feng Bujue keenly caught something from the other party's words. He continued: "Oh... Are you also a prisoner?" He paused, "Then let me ask you, do you know a guy named 'Samodil'?"
"I have no obligation to answer you, human." Lesend looked at Brother Jue and said. "Everything is a transaction on the Jumo Island." He stood up, and his voice had become very cold, "I will abide by my previous promise..." he said. He then reached out and handed his axe to Ji Bu, "You'd better not cross the line..." A gleam of sharpness flashed in his eyes, "lest I change my mind."
"Well... it's come to this..." Feng Bujue thought to himself. The next second, he turned his head and glanced at Honghu.
And Honghu also quickly winked at Jue Ge. At this moment, both of them knew that the bonus of "Faith in Wisden" was their last chance to obtain intelligence from Lesend, and this NPC would no longer give any other useful information.
"Damn... It turns out that this axe can't be taken out of the script." Ji Bu had already taken the more than one-meter-long axe in his hand and saw the item description.
[Name: The tree spirit who talks trash must die]
[Type: Weapon]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Attack power: ? ? ? ]
[Attributes: None]
[Special effects: Causes fixed damage to the "Tree of Taunting", and can only cause basic damage of an ordinary axe to any other target]
[Equipment conditions: Choose Idient as your faith, and cannot be traded after picking it up]
[Can this scenario be taken out: No]
[Note: This axe is the work of the legendary dwarf craftsman "Or. Quan Desi". Once, he passed by a forest and encountered several "Mockery Trees". Although these mischievous tree spirits did not have any practical means of attack, they were extremely poisonous and extremely hard. Even divine weapons could only cause minor damage to them. That day, Mr. Quan Desi was humiliated and became angry. So he spent two days rushing to make this weapon specifically to restrain the Mockery Tree. Later... he also used the wood from the Mockery Tree to make the infamous artifact-"Mean Armor", of course, that's another story. ]
"Okay, then what about our reward?" Feng Bujue continued to say to Lesend.
"Here, this is yours." Lesend said, stretching out his thumb and gently pressing on Brother Jue's shoulder.
In a blink of an eye, a strange spell mark appeared on the latter's shoulder.
"And you." Lesend turned around and walked towards Uncle Waste, pressing another spell mark on his shoulder.
"When you need to use it, just put your hands on your shoulders." Lesend added.
"Uh...won't you explain the principle and effect of this thing?" Feng Bujue asked.
"When the time comes, you will naturally know." Lesend replied.
"It's the same as not saying anything..." Feng Bujue muttered while walking towards Jibu, "Hey, Jibu, let me take a look at the equipment description (after the version update, the function of checking the equipment information in the hands of teammates has been added. As long as the two stand closer, they can complete this operation without handing the items to each other)."
"Then...I can ask you a question now, right?" Honghu walked towards Lesend and said seriously.
"Yes, as I promised." Lesend replied, "Westden's believer, I will tell you a piece of 'information you need to know'." He paused for two seconds, "You are a believer of the God of Wisdom, you should know what you should ask, right?"
"Hmm..." Honghu hesitated for a moment and turned to look at his teammates.
Uncle Wasteful remained silent, and only God knew what was on his face under his sunglasses; Tianma Xingkong's face with thick eyebrows and big eyes always had the same expression, and Honghu didn't expect him to come up with any good suggestions; Feng Bujue was concentrating on checking Jibu's equipment, and it seemed that he didn't intend to make any suggestions on this matter; and Jibu just shrugged and looked back at Honghu, as if saying, "I don't care..."
"Then..." Seeing that his teammates had no intention of interfering with him, Honghu spoke according to his own opinion, "Please tell me... the fastest way to reach the Temple of Faith within our ability."
"Humph... You are worthy of being a wise general..." Feng Bujue heard this and immediately thought in his heart, "You didn't ask for the coordinates, but asked 'the fastest way to reach', and also added the premise of 'within your ability'. It's amazing... Without the assistance of [Vajra Bell], you still made a very smart choice."
If it was Brother Jue who asked this question, he would definitely ask the same question. Although he had thought about taking this opportunity to directly ask the question "What is the method to leave Zuimo Island?", considering the current actual situation (mainly time constraints), it is obviously more important to overcome the difficulties of the main mission first.
