Chapter 518: The Spark that Spanned History
Before the Seven Doves and Anosachi approached the Sirens' nest, they had already heard the singing floating in the air.
The rumbling waves hit the huge reefs again and again, like a metronome accompanying the sirens.
The reef is steep and towering, and the top of the reef is covered with lush trees and low shrubs, as if the reef was wearing a green hat.
From the bottom of the reef, half of a brilliant rainbow extends.
The Sirens stood in groups on the top of the rainbow, singing melodious songs.
The entire Siren's Lair, viewed from a distance, looks like a dreamlike wonderland like the Penglai fairyland in the novel.
Anothage and the seven doves are suspended over the sea.
The shadows of the two people merged together and turned into a shadow carpet that lifted the two people in mid-air.
“256 Sirens in total.
There is one 5th-level miracle, thirteen 4th-level miracles, sixty-six 3rd-level miracles, ninety-eight 2nd-level miracles, and the rest are all 1st-level miracles.
In addition to this Siren's Lair, there is also a [Siren's Cliff] under the sea.
[Siren Cliff] is the secret place where the Sirens hide their treasures.
The presence of the Siren Cliff means that these Sirens have lived in this sea area for a long time, and their vigilance will be much stronger. "
Arnosaki looked at the Siren's nest not far away and asked the seven pigeons sitting on the shadow carpet beside him:
“Boy, how do you plan to retake the Siren’s Nest?
The Sirens are a very proud race, and trying to conquer them purely by force will only result in a pile of corpses.
If you let me help you, the Sirens will fight back desperately the moment my demigod pressure appears."
"It really is Siren Cliff... There really are 256 of them."
Qi Ge laughed and said with bright eyes:
"Uncle Thief, I sense the existence of fate.
Fate is wonderful beyond words."
Anothaki looked puzzled:
"What nonsense! If you have something to say, just say it. Don't play dumb with me."
“Don’t worry, Uncle Thief. The other one has already told me what to do.
Just wait here for a moment and watch how I capture the Siren's nest!"
Anosaki said strangely: "Are you sure? Then I won't interfere."
"Don't worry, everything is as I planned.
Let me make some preparations first.”
…
…
Half an hour later, Qi Ge made a tattered raft using wood and ropes.
He packed all his equipment into a bag, changed into linen clothes, and then found a beach to roll around on, making himself covered in dust and dirt.
Arnoldsachi looked at Qi Ge's confusing behavior, with question marks written all over his head.
After all the preparations were completed, Qi Ge said hello to Arnoldsach:
"Uncle Thief, I'm leaving."
Arnosaki endured for a long time, but couldn't help asking:
"Qi Ge, what are you doing?"
“Ah, I’m lowering my charm.
-5 for disheveled clothes, -5 for unkempt hair, this will reduce 10 points."
Qi Ge explained:
"Uncle Thief, my charm value is full at 30 points, which has reached the limit of mortals. If I want to increase my charm value, I have to become a demigod.
Such high charisma is advantageous most of the time.
But when encountering Siren, it becomes a negative effect.
30 Charm will make those Sirens lose their minds and unable to communicate at all.
20 Although charm is dangerous, at least it can help you have a say and not get pushed down as soon as you get up. "
Anothaki took a breath of cold air:
“What you mean by outsmarting someone is to sacrifice myself to the Sirens?
256 Sirens. Seven Pigeons, I respect you as a man. "
"How can that be possible!"
Qi Ge waved his hands repeatedly.
"I just fought a big battle, my legs are still weak and can't stand the continuous consumption.
If you have enough troops, there are ways to deal with them; if you don’t have enough troops, there are ways to deal with them.
This is what I do when I don’t have enough troops.”
Qi Ge used wooden oars to slide the raft, rowing towards the [Siren's Nest] one after another.
Rafting on a rough sea is a very dangerous thing.
A slightly larger wave would have capsized the raft.
Fortunately, the weather is calm for the time being and Qige doesn’t need to slide for long.
After approaching the [Siren's Nest], Qi Ge took out a signal torch from his backpack and lit it.
The vast green smoke rose up and soon attracted the attention of the sirens in the Siren's Nest.
A dozen sirens spread their wings from the rainbow and approached while singing a ballad.
The song sounded like a mother's gentle lullaby, making Qi Ge feel sleepy involuntarily.
Fortunately, the [Rule·Quiet] and [Rule·Stop] in Qi Ge's mind lit up slightly, dispelling Qi Ge's sleepiness.
Seeing the Siren approaching, the Seven Pigeons vigorously waved their torches left and right and shouted loudly:
“Help! Help!!”
The Sirens flew back and forth around the seven doves, humming a ballad.
They surrounded Qi Ge and stared at him with teasing, curious and greedy eyes.
It's like a pack of wolves staring at a helpless lamb.
"Half-elf..."
"A handsome half-elf!"
"I want to eat it. Eat it all the way to the bottom."
"I can't eat. I haven't fallen asleep yet."
The ancestors of the Sirens were elemental creatures, and they did not have the normal concept of good and evil like other creatures.
Hunting men is a very normal eating behavior for them, just like fishing and hunting.
They do not feel sad about the death of a man, nor do they feel that there is any love involved in such behavior.
It's just a matter of squeezing as much as possible and taking everything.
Qi Ge knew very well that the test from Siren had begun the moment he heard the song.
Not falling asleep to the song is only the first step.
Next, there are many tests waiting for me.
Once you fail the test, you will completely become "food" for reproduction.
Only by passing the test can you gain the right to have an equal dialogue with the Sirens.
Qi Ge took a deep breath and shouted to the Sirens in the sky:
"I am a lost traveler, I am shipwrecked and without help.
Gentle and beautiful ladies, please give me a little help.
I am now starving and in great need of some fresh water and food to survive.”
After Qi Ge finished speaking, she turned her head away shyly.
"Help? He's asking us for help?"
"Ah, he's blushing."
“He couldn’t even look at us.”
"Haha, what a pure-hearted half-elf."
"Cute, miss the sun."
The sirens chirped and commented on the seven pigeons, and even forgot to sing.
"Oh, the victims, how pitiful."
"The clothes are ruined."
A few brave Sirens even flew to the innocent boy Qi Ge and deliberately drew circles in the holes in Qi Ge's clothes on his chest and stomach with their fingers.
"Please, please don't be like this."
Qi Ge squatted down shyly, hugging her body.
This action made the Sirens laugh even more happily.
"Come on, let your sister see it."
"Where are you feeling hungry? Is it here..."
More and more Sirens fell around the seven pigeons and took advantage of them.
"Oh, please don't be like this."
The seven doves let out pitiful cries while being besieged by a group of sirens.
World famous paintings:
Monk Tang fell into the Spider Cave.
The sirens' commotion soon attracted the attention of other sirens in the [Siren's Nest]. More and more sirens hummed songs and spread their wings to fly towards the Seven Doves.
The hypnotic song became louder and louder, but Qi Ge remained unconscious under the protection of [Rule·Quiet] and [Rule·Stop].
"Stop it, everyone."
A sharp voice sounded in the sky, and the Sirens surrounding the seven pigeons scattered.
At this time, Qi Ge's already tattered clothes had been torn into pieces, and his pants had been pulled down to his knees.
Obviously, although the Sirens could not eat the Seven Doves because they were not unconscious, they could lick them first.
The critical moment has arrived.
Qi Ge quickly put on his trousers, sat up from the boat, and looked up.
A siren who looked very high-ranking was slowly descending above the seven pigeons' heads.
On her chest, two long, wrinkled beige silk cloths crossed each other, just covering the buds and revealing her smooth belly and shoulders.
A beige silk miniskirt was pinned diagonally at her waist, and a small tuft of white fluff was faintly visible two inches below her belly button.
Unlike other sirens, her wings are exceptionally large, even larger than an angel's wings.
As she slowly floated, her wings kept changing between icy blue, pure white and transparent.
An idiom suddenly popped up in Qi Ge’s mind: beautiful beyond words.
She is the leader of the Siren's Lair, a level 5, rank 5 miracle soldier.
His rank is higher than that of [Ake Roy] in the historical echo of [Underground River].
[Ake Roy] who just met Qi Ge is [Siren Enlightener], a level 5, rank 4 miracle soldier.
"Traveler, I am [Pure Wings·Bright Feathers], the leader of the Siren clan.
You can call me [Yu].
It is well that you did not fall asleep to our songs, traveler.
I allow you to make your request."
Wings of Purity... is that the name of a military unit?
I've never heard of this type of soldier.
In my previous life, I had friendships with so many Siren tribes, and here I encountered Siren troops that I had never heard of.
This means that Xiaoyu’s type of soldiers is likely to be extremely rare, or even she is the only one.
There was a burning heat in Qi Ge's eyes.
I want it! I want it so much!
Once my favorability rating has increased, I will definitely study it carefully inside and out.
Qi Ge looked at Jiao Yu and said loudly in a voice that all the Sirens could hear:
“Captain Yu, I am a survivor of a shipwreck.
My name is Qi Ge.
The merchant ship I was on was destroyed by a sea monster, and the whereabouts of the other passengers and crew were all unknown.
I would like to ask you to help escort me to the nearby city.
If all else fails, at least give me some food and water to survive on."
Jiaoyu looked up and down at the seven pigeons for a while, then suddenly spread his wings.
A gust of wind blew across Qi Ge's face, causing Qi Ge's raft to shake violently.
The surging waves roared up with the strong wind, and the waves surged, soaking Qi Ge's body completely.
Qi Ge tried his best and half of his body lay on the raft, barely avoiding being thrown off the raft.
Jiao Yu said coldly:
“Traveler Seven Doves, watch where you stand.
You are our prey now.
Our tribe hasn't encountered a suitable breeding tool for a long time, and you look just right.
You didn't fall asleep to our singing. We just gave you a chance to survive, but it doesn't mean you can leave."
Qi Ge certainly understood.
I have now just changed from a piece of cake to a cow that can be squeezed repeatedly, and I am still a long way from becoming a "person".
He took a deep breath and said:
“Captain Yu, I understand what you mean.
I heard that the Sirens will provide warriors with opportunities to test themselves.
I want to take part in the test of the Sirens."
Jiaoyu stared at Qige with great interest and asked:
“Of course there are tests, but are you sure you want to take part?
You have to know that if you fail, you will lose even the chance to survive.
My people and I will use you to our heart's content until you are completely dead.
It's still hard to come across high-quality prey like you.
I advise you to think it through, because once you start the test, there will be no chance to regret it."
Tsk, the word [use] sounds so elegant.
Qi Ge nodded seriously and said:
"I understand. I won't regret it."
Hearing the words of the Seven Doves, the other Sirens in the sky began to cry out.
"Ah, Qige, don't be impulsive."
"You'll die, don't do it."
"The leader's test is difficult."
"You are so beautiful, it would be a pity to die. It would be better to keep you for later use."
Qi Ge shouted earnestly:
"No need to say more, please start the test, Chief Yu!"
Jiaoyu covered her mouth with her hands and smiled softly.
She flapped her wings and flew slowly in a circle.
She hummed a ballad, and while singing, she used the resonance of her soul to whisper in Qi Ge's heart:
“I like brave warriors.
Very good, then I'll give you a chance.
What kind of test would you like to take?"
Here it comes!
The trap has been set, and you won't be given the chance to regret!
Qi Ge took a deep breath and said:
"Wisdom, courage, force, luck.
I want to take part in the conquest test."
As soon as Qi Ge finished speaking, Jiao Yu's flying stopped abruptly, and the Sirens in the sky exclaimed in unison.
Obviously, they never expected that Qi Ge would be so brave!
Jiaoyu's expression turned serious, and he said seriously:
"Only heroes can take part in the conquest test. You..."
Qi Ge took out the military type card that symbolized his heroic identity with a "pop".
"Unfortunately, I happen to be a hero."
"I see."
Jiao Yu snorted coldly, and suddenly flew in front of Qi Ge, sticking close to Qi Ge's face. She stared coldly into Qi Ge's eyes and asked viciously:
"It seems that you are not just an ordinary victim.
You took so much trouble to get close to us just to trick me into giving you a chance to test me?"
"Yes.
In my heart, every Siren is a treasure that must be carefully cared for.
I don't want to fight with you.
I would be very sad if any of you were hurt in the battle.
Even if I leave even a little scar on you, I will be extremely heartbroken. "
Qi Ge remained calm and his eyes were sincere.
He looked at the Sirens, glancing at them one by one, as if he was looking each one in the eye.
Finally, his eyes fell on Jiaoyu, and he nodded sincerely to Jiaoyu.
[System prompt: Your advanced diplomacy technique has taken effect, and the deception was successful.]
[System prompt: Jiaoyu's favorability towards you +10. ]
[System prompt: All Sirens' favorability towards you +10]
Jiaoyu blushed slightly, flew back a little, and said:
“You have great courage and great ambition.
According to the rules, to participate in the conquest test, you need to defeat all of us.
Since I have already promised to give you a test, I will make an exception and let you go.
However, I will increase the difficulty of the conquest test and will never let you pass it easily!"
Telling yourself that you are going to increase the difficulty is a clear reminder to yourself to be prepared.
I like it when he has a hard mouth but a soft heart.
"I'm ready! Let's do it!"
"The first level, wisdom!"
Jiaoyu flew up into the sky and said:
"Each of our 256 Sirens has different preferences.
You must guess what each Siren likes best to complete the level!"
"Wow, that's too hard."
"We spend so much time together, it's impossible for me to know all the sisters' preferences."
"Chief, how could you possibly guess that?"
The effect of favorability is obvious.
The Sirens chirped and even began to complain for the seven doves.
"That's enough! Regardless of his original intention, he has bypassed the test of defeating us.
This level of problem is necessary for him.
Since he has the courage to propose conquering us, it is only natural for him to be familiar with the preferences of each member of our tribe.
Can you accept a conqueror who doesn't even know our preferences?"
Jiaoyu looked at Qige carefully and said word by word:
"Qi Ge. Are you an impolite person who speaks wildly, or are you our son of destiny?
Let me see carefully whether your strength matches your ambition. "
Qi Ge closed her eyes and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Logically speaking, this is my first time meeting you all, so I have no way of knowing your preferences.
but!"
Qi Ge took out a basin of water and buried his face in it.
The moment he shook his head, a set of clothes was quickly put on him, washing away the mud on his body!
[System prompt: Your unkempt appearance has disappeared, Charm +5. ]
At the same time, the [Scepter of Silence], [Token of Stop] and a whole set of gorgeous treasures were put on Qi Ge again!
[System prompt: Your nakedness has disappeared, Charm +5. ]
[System prompt: Your title: Infinite Charm is now effective again.]
[System prompt: All Sirens' favorability towards you increases by +20. ]
The cloak of [Pure White Night Shadow] fluttered behind Qi Ge. Qi Ge looked at the stunned Sirens in the sky and confessed affectionately:
“I can’t say what you liked in the past, but preferences can change.
I swear to Mother Goddess Yasha and the four elemental monarchs that I will be your lord and take care of you in every possible way.
I will try my best and do everything in my power to bring you supreme happiness!
My answer is, the one you like most in the future will be me!"
Beep beep beep!
The sudden change in the Seven Doves' appearance and their impassioned declaration struck the Sirens' hearts.
The heartbeats of the Sirens merged into one, echoing through the sky.
【System prompt: Advanced diplomacy is effective, deception is successful.】
All Sirens' favorability towards you +10]
Jiaoyu was shocked by Qige's answer.
Even she had to admit that Qi Ge's answer touched her soft heart.
However, the leader's arrogance forced her to calm down.
Jiaoyu stared at Qige, frowned and scolded:
"You're taking advantage of others! Do you think you can gain recognition from the tribesmen with such cunning means?!"
"You're not taking shortcuts, are you?"
"I think Qi Ge is sincere in what he said."
"Recognition, well, it's not impossible to give it."
Under Jiaoyu's surprised gaze, the sirens in the sky swayed left and right, as if they had drunk fake wine.
As a result, out of 256 Sirens, 205 agreed and 50 did not object.
Jiaoyu is the only one who has not expressed her opinion yet!
“You, you…”
Jiaoyu looked around, and all she saw were traitors.
Her chest rose and fell twice, and she looked at Qi Ge and said in embarrassment:
"Damn it! You sweet-talking bastard!
If you end up cheating on us, I will never let you go.
You have passed the test of wisdom."
“Thank you, everyone.”
The seven pigeons looked at the sky with emotion and looked into the eyes of the Sirens affectionately.
"Damn, this works!"
In the distance, Anothachi couldn't help it anymore.
"Fuck, just because you're good-looking you can do whatever you want?"
Qi Ge finally looked at Jiao Yu and said with a burning gaze:
"Thank you, Chief Yu."
"snort."
Jiao Yu snorted coldly and said:
“The next three levels won’t be so easy!
courage!
In this world, besides becoming a hero, there is another path for soldiers.
That is, to develop one's own potential to the limit and become a legendary soldier!
The mere existence of mythical soldiers will bring unparalleled pressure, making people terrified and lose the will to fight.
I ask you to be able to hold out for ten minutes under the pressure of the mythical soldiers!"
Jiaoyu waved her hand gently, and a scarlet feather flew out from the Siren's nest.
She held the feather high and said loudly:
“This is the feather left by our ancestor [Ake Roy]!
Our ancestors once defeated the Chaos Demon and led us out of the ancient archipelago that was swallowed by Chaos!
She is a genuine mythical soldier!
As long as this feather is there, no sea monster will dare to approach our nest.
I ask you to hold this feather for ten minutes!"
The so-called Chaos Demon God is what NPCs call the True Chaos Army.
"Ake Roy..."
Hearing this familiar name here, Qi Ge was filled with emotion.
“So you survived.
Even without my leadership, you successfully led the Sirens out of the ancient archipelago and successfully became a mythical soldier.
amazing."
Qi Ge gently stretched out his hand, and the scarlet feathers slowly floated to his hand.
He held the feather tenderly in his hands.
With a gentle look in his eyes
With the blessing of the Mother Goddess in the Great Temple, the suppression of the mythical troops is ineffective against the Seven Pigeons.
Of course, Qi Ge couldn't feel the so-called pressure at all.
"Ake Roy, in the echoes of history, we have fought side by side and accomplished miracles one after another.
I will inherit the fire that you have preserved with so much difficulty.
You have been protecting them all the time, thank you for your hard work.
Now, pass the baton to me."
The feathers in Qi Ge's hands suddenly glowed, and a circle of red light swept across, and red halos appeared on all the Sirens.
256 apertures were rotating slowly, and in the center of the aperture, a ray of light connected to the seven pigeons.
In the reflection of the dazzling light, the seven pigeons stood upright, with bright eyes and heroic demeanor, like gods descending to the earth.
The other Sirens were in a panic, flying up and down, completely unaware of what was happening.
Only Jiao Yu was dumbfounded: "Oh my God! The ancestor actually recognized him!"
