Chapter 344 Plot Station Modesty
Chapter 344 Plot Station Modesty
After studying Astrid's story for a whole day, it seems that his inheritance appearing at the bottom of the lake was not accidental. It should have been his final and careful design, and the scepter was not his.
There is still one person’s information about Modesty left to look at. Song Ying can only hope that she won’t encounter this person in the new plot station, otherwise she will be at a loss.
Song Ying asked Shi Muyuan if he needed a card to exempt him from the event. She had a few cards on hand, but she basically would not use them.
Shi Muyuan changed a card for himself, but Du Hexu and Leng Jin didn't want it. Du Hexu was not injured, but Leng Jin was mainly poisoned. Now that the poison has been cleared, he doesn't need to rest for too long.
On Monday, Song Ying found a piece of clue to the heart of the system in the trading house. It was estimated that the other party didn't know what it was and could be exchanged for food.
After getting this fragment, Song Ying took out the nine fragments in his hand, and a panel was triggered at this time.
[Whether to synthesize (yes/no)]
Sure enough, ten of them can be combined. After the combination is confirmed, a light flashed, and a map appeared in front of Song Ying. When the locator on the wrist approaches, the locator will make a sound.
When the locator and the map come into contact with each other, the map disappears and a map appears on the locator's screen.
Apart from one mark on the map, the rest are the symbols of mountains and rivers.
Song Ying glanced at the time and confirmed that there was still half an hour before driving, so she took out the map she had obtained and compared it, but there was no similar map.
There are mountains but no water, and there is water but no mountains.
In this situation, Song Ying could only treat the heart of this system as another map that she had never been to. She hand-drew a copy of the map and sent it to all the people who added her as a friend.
This is when you need help from your friends. Ask them to pay attention to the terrain and tell them if they encounter something similar, or go to the marked points to check.
The Heart of the System is really important to both her and Xiao Hei. It also determines whether the assessment can be completed ahead of schedule.
After reporting the matter, the sound of Xiao An driving was heard. Song Ying began to pack up, putting away the maps she had taken out and her own things.
As the train rose higher, Song Ying discovered that the shadows in the mountains were becoming clearer and larger.
I took a photo for comparison in case my memory was wrong. The previous valley was larger than the current one, but the shadow in this valley has overflowed a lot and spread to the valley next to it.
Song Ying thought that this phenomenon was the shadow moving, and it was a smart move to move its position by spreading.
This shadow must be something with a certain consciousness, otherwise it would not have been so close to Song Ying.
"The platform ahead is the plot station. Please check the details of the mission inside the station separately. The vehicle will stay for 10 hours. Please remember to get on the bus on time."
When the train arrived at the station, Song Ying withdrew his gaze, picked up his backpack and waited at the door.
Looking at the white clouds outside, Song Ying was a little distracted. At first, she was the one who didn't even dare to go out of the train door. She mustered up the courage to go down and get the box.
Now she can easily complete the plot stations, weekly activities, and even handle some special missions.
The growth rate in such an environment is very fast. I wonder if she can regain her previous mentality after she gets the System Heart and completes the upgrade of Xiao Hei and arrives on the new planet.
The train stopped and opened its doors. The platform Song Ying saw was different from the previous ones. This platform looked magnificent and golden. For a moment, Song Ying wondered if this was not a floating island.
Unfortunately, before she had time to think about it, the system panel appeared.
[Ding, trigger the "Witness the Legacy of Modesty" mission.]
1. The duration of this mission is 15 days (train time is 10 hours).
2. Please complete the main task within 15 days: witness Modesty's acceptance of the inheritance.
3. There are hidden tasks in the mission scene. Please explore them yourself to trigger and complete them.
4. Be wary of people or things with ulterior motives.
5. You will be automatically teleported back to the platform in the last half hour of the 15th day. If you are in a special scene, you may not be able to be teleported. Please pay attention to your own environmental status. Failure to return to the platform may result in the inability to settle the task and you will remain in the task scene forever.
good luck! 】
It was still the story station for the 15th, and there was still no identity selection. I wonder if the system would let her be a divine envoy this time.
After the waiting time passed, Song Ying was teleported directly there. It was still the small house next to the temple, but this house now looked much more luxurious.
Now there are not only beds for resting but also some daily necessities. It is obvious that someone is living here now, for a short period of time.
Song Ying put away her backpack and checked what items on her body were prohibited from use. These were things she did frequently now.
After waiting for a while and making sure that there was no one around, Song Ying put on an invisible cloak and left the room.
The first thing Song Ying saw when he came out of the room was the statue in the temple. The statue at this time was completely different from what Song Ying had seen before, all of it was golden, and he didn't know where the gold came from in this Angel Floating City.
When Song Ying walked to the temple outside the temple, she found that the entire floating island looked magnificent. With her eyesight, she could clearly see the color of the statue in the central square, which was somewhat dazzling in the sun.
Song Ying looked at the situation in the city. There were indeed a lot more people than the last time she came in, and it was becoming more lively.
Song Ying didn't watch what happened next. He first flew to the location of the rift in his memory to confirm the overall state of the barrier.
After getting closer and taking a closer look, I found that the crack had indeed become very thin. If something from the outside world wanted to get in at this time, it would be very easy to break it.
The entire crack is now nearly five meters long. According to what Astrid said in her books, this width is wide enough for poisonous bees to enter.
After Song Ying confirmed the situation here, he landed on the floating island and found a hidden place to modify his wing data to a visible state. After that, he could walk around the city in a swagger.
Once in town you could tell that everyone was doing pretty well, the main street looked busy and there were a number of patrols roaming the streets.
Even passers-by had smiles on their faces, and no one noticed that problems began to occur with the barrier above.
After walking around the city, she still couldn't reconcile the information with what she knew, so she could only assume that this was a timeline she had never known.
After dark, Song Ying did not stay in the city. He turned invisible and went to the three-story library in the floating palace.
There has been no change here for so many years, except that there are more books on the bookshelf. There is nothing in the small room, but it is quiet here and she can have a good sleep by taking out the tent.
After Song Ying arrived at the third floor of the library, she first looked for a book that recorded the history of the floating island. She needed to determine what time it was.
It is easy to see that this timeline is about 188 years after Astrid's death, and the Elder Council discovered a metal similar to gold on a medium-sized floating island.
Such metal has a certain defensive property, which is one of the reasons why the entire floating island now looks magnificent.
It seems that Modesty is an angel who was born more than 170 or 160 years after Astrid's fall.
Then why is the information about him so limited? At least, there is no information about him recorded in all the books now. It is very likely that he is not the inheritor at this time. What Song Ying wants to complete the task is to find him first and let him inherit the heritage.
Can such an unknown person really be the one with the highest combat power?
If such a person comes to power, will we no longer be able to see the happy days that we have now?
She couldn't speculate like this about someone she had never even met, so Song Ying gathered her wandering thoughts.
No matter what the process was, this Modesty must have died in the previous plot station, otherwise the inheritance would not have been in the water all the time.
Song Ying heard someone flying outside and quickly turned off the flashlight. In fact, she was in this corner with her cloak on so she wouldn't be seen by anyone, but she looked like a guilty thief.
Song Ying also found relevant information about the White Tower mechanism in the books here, but he did not see it in full later. It was probably because Astrid died before she finished teaching everything the first time.
Those who are complete after that are most likely completed by Modesty, otherwise they all died very quickly and were unlikely to leave complete information.
Looking at the time, the first day had passed. No one noticed Song Ying's arrival, and Song Ying didn't want anyone to know her existence.
I slept directly in the small room in the library. I didn’t know who had given this place the secret, but it was actually very good. As long as the door to the balcony was not opened, basically no one would see who was inside.
The next morning, Song Ying was awakened by the noise downstairs. It should be the cleaners coming. From what she saw last night, the third floor was also clean. It was obvious that someone cleaned it regularly.
Song Ying immediately packed up her things and used her cloak to leave the third floor, then went directly to the lakeside and found a deserted place to wash up.
After breakfast, Song Ying went into the water and still saw the stone of inheritance at the bottom of the lake. At this time, there was nothing in the cave next to it. The scepter should be Modesty's.
After confirming that this was an important place where the mission took place, Song Ying prepared to stay here.
She opened the protective shield at the bottom of the lake and took out her coral hut. The furniture inside was fully furnished, just like the coral house seen in the Mermaid Kingdom. It was like a pearl at the bottom of the lake.
This lake doesn't produce anything, and usually no one comes here. The protective shield itself also has the effect of reducing the sense of presence. This is the safest place on the floating island.
After taking care of everything, Song Ying first went ashore to look around, trying to meet Modesty, but there was no telling whether he could meet her in such a huge sea of people.
When Song Ying was strolling in the city, he suddenly heard the sound of a bell. People on the street didn't react to the sound at first, but when they reacted, they immediately packed up their things and hid everywhere.
Song Ying, who was being forced forward, could only get away and then check what happened.
By the time Song Ying escaped from the crowd and found a place to hide, a fight had already begun in the air.
From a distance, Song Ying discovered that what attacked from the crack this time was not a poisonous bee, but a green snake with wings on its back. It looked to be two or three meters long, with thick arms and a pair of powerful wings.
A quick glance showed that those coming to fight were from the patrol teams on both wings. Among them were a few from the fourth wing, who should be the captains or something like that.
None of the six wings of the Elders' Council were in sight now, and Song Ying did not act rashly. She was also a person of unknown origin and could not let them notice her.
From a distance, they watched them stop the flying snake from going to the floating city below. After a while, half of the elders of the Presbyterian Church arrived.
They all joined the battle immediately, and you could see some people flying quickly in four directions, probably to open the protective shield.
It seemed that these elders were not without ways to deal with the situation. She had heard from the crowd before that they should hide in the cellar after returning home.
The fact that every household has a cellar must have been promoted by the Elders, and they may even have forced the people to dig the cellars.
After nearly two hundred years, it finally began again.
Last time, she was focusing on a quick victory, but now she doesn't plan to intervene in this matter in the early stages. She wants to see how they are going to deal with it, so as to force Modesty out.
This should be just the first tentative attack of the flying snakes. The number coming is not large, and the crack is still stuck and cannot be healed.
After this wave of cleanup was completed, no new flying snakes came for a while, which gave the angels a chance to catch their breath.
The elders who came to participate in the battle looked a bit old. After killing and clearing them out, patrol teams were arranged to strengthen patrols here.
Seeing that there was nothing to do here, Song Ying followed the elder to the first floor of the floating palace, where the elders held their meeting.
When all the elders arrived, Song Ying discovered that the position of the chief elder was vacant. He didn't know whether it was because there had never been one or because there was no time to fill it.
This group of elders were discussing about the rifts, and Song Ying knew everything about them better than they did. In the end, he was so bored that he could only sit on the steps at the door and listen.
She didn't become interested until she heard Modesty's name. He was the captain of the patrol team and a descendant of a branch of the royal family. This was in line with the goal of inheritance.
That inheritance seemed to be from the royal family they were talking about. All the people who had been receiving the inheritance were of royal blood. It should be that the closer the bloodline, the greater the energy.
None of the bloodline of the main branch was left at that time, and only a few princesses who married out had descendants. In fact, the purity of the descendants of those princesses had become very low after so many years of dilution.
While listening, Song Ying discovered that these elders still knew some secrets. Astrid's father actually had an illegitimate child, and that illegitimate child was Modesty's father.
Now the Council of Elders wants Modesty to go to the lake to look for the inheritance left by Astrid.
Hearing this, Song Ying felt that these elders were quite courageous. In fact, this behavior was largely a gamble, a gamble that there was a heritage at the bottom of the lake.
She went down to the bottom of the lake and saw that the stones there were still dissipating. She wondered whether the energy stone balls were still there. The white tower mechanism they built was still using energy crystals.
The energy stone balls that followed were actually produced by the overflow of inherited energy that continuously washed the stone balls.
The eleven elders finally decided to let Modesty give it a try, and asked someone to call someone over to discuss the matter.
Song Ying waited on the steps for a while before a four-winged soldier wearing patrol armor came over. When he passed by Song Ying, he also looked at the place where Song Ying was sitting.
Of course, there was nothing there in Modesty's eyes, but he just felt the gaze.
Song Ying immediately withdrew her gaze. This person was really too observant. He would be able to notice if she looked at him a few more times.
