1862 Mission Option
"Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!"
The holy remnant chapter cleansed the surrounding black fog and immediately attacked the squirrel!
The squirrel realized the terrifying strength contained in the holy remnant chapter and immediately jumped to the side!
The automatic pursuit effect of the holy remnant chapter was activated, and it automatically chased after the squirrel from all directions!
However, the squirrel's agility was extremely high. It jumped back and forth within the narrow area!
"Bang! Bang Bang!!!"
The holy remnant chapter's flying speed was unable to catch up to the squirrel's superb dodging ability. It continuously struck the wall, creating deep pits in the rock wall!
Eh?
The range of its dodging area seemed to have a limit.
Fang Heng carefully observed the flying squirrel. He narrowed his eyes and focused on the squirrel's ankle.
Upon closer inspection, the dark red shackles were binding the flying squirrel's ankle joints, directly affecting its range of activity!
Under the influence of the shackles, the squirrel was quickly chased to a dead end by the holy remnant chapter that attacked it from all directions.
"Aktu! Come to me quickly!"
Aktu had also recovered from his paralyzed state. He immediately ran towards Fang Heng's location.
The flying squirrel saw that it was about to be caught up by the holy remnant chapter, so it immediately became anxious. It suddenly jumped up and fled into the air.
Faced with the holy remnant chapter that was flying at it from below, the flying squirrel's cheeks inflated rapidly and it stopped in midair.
"Phew!!!"
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
Black fog!
A dense black fog was spat out from the flying squirrel's mouth!
It could actually control the black fog!
Or was it releasing the black fog?
"Boom!!!"
The thick black fog engulfed the Book of Oath's remnant chapter!
"Chi chi chi!!"
The holy remnant chapter immediately let out a loud sizzling sound, and the light covering the remnant chapter quickly disappeared.
The energy value in the Book of Oatha was also rapidly decreasing!
However, the holy remnant chapter was a holy artifact, so it could still hold on for a short time. It quickly broke through the black fog and continued flying toward the flying squirrel.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!!!"
The first holy remnant chapter was the first to hit the flying squirrel. In an instant, a thick black fog burst out from the surface of the flying squirrel's body!
The squirrel didn't seem to have suffered much damage. It had only been hit heavily, and its body flew backward uncontrollably.
"Pa!"
The squirrel's body crashed into the wall and landed on the ground. It had an adorable expression on its face as though it had discovered something strange and was puzzled.
Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!"
Following that, the holy remnant chapters chased after the squirrel one after another!
Upon seeing this, the confusion on the squirrel's face quickly faded, turning into excitement. It pounced straight at the dark golden holy remnant chapters!
"Bang! Bang Bang!!!"
The holy remnant chapters continuously collided with the squirrel's body, causing the black fog to explode.
The squirrel was continuously sent flying. It didn't suffer much damage, but it seemed to be enjoying it as it kept ramming into the incoming holy remnant chapters.
While the squirrel was entangled with the holy remnant chapters, Aktu hurriedly ran towards Fang Heng.
What was going on?
Aktu heaved a sigh of relief when he was out of danger. When he turned around, he saw the squirrel constantly getting attacked by the holy remnant chapters. He was filled with questions and asked softly, "Brother Fang Heng, what's going on?"
Fang Heng shook his head. He also found it strange.
Seeing that the energy in the Book of Oaths had decreased significantly, he quickly put it away.
"Pa Ta."
Realizing that the attack of the holy remnant chapters had stopped, the squirrel landed agilely from midair. It tilted its head and looked at Fang Heng with a curious expression.
Fang Heng and Aktu looked at the squirrel cautiously.
The two of them stood slightly further away from the squirrel.
"What is it?"
"I don't know. Look at the shackles on its ankles. It looks like it's trapped." As Fang Heng spoke, he looked around at the space that looked like a cave and tried to analyze it, "It's very strange. This should be the source of the black fog aura, but we can't see where it's coming from."
Hearing Fang Heng's words, Aktu also noticed it. He watched surprised and asked, "That's right. Don't tell me..."
Fang Heng stared at the squirrel before him with a grave look in his eyes and said, "Yes, from the few exchanges just now, it's very likely that the source of the black fog is this fellow."
Aktu swallowed his saliva carefully.
There were still many things that they could not understand.
What kind of monster was this squirrel?
What were the dark red shackles on its legs? Who set it up?
At least for now, it looked like the squirrel's area of mobility was restricted by the red chain. They were still safe for now.
The squirrel didn't continue attacking. It only sized up Fang Heng and his companion, its eyes filled with curiosity.
It seemed to have understood that the aura coming from the person was similar to it.
Aktu observed the squirrel's state and whispered, "It doesn't seem to be that hostile towards us?"
"Squeak! Squeak squeak!"
The squirrel was stunned for a moment before it took a several steps forward. It wanted to get closer but was held rear by the chains. Feeling helpless, it could only shout at Fang Heng and Aktu.
Suddenly, a game prompt appeared on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: The player has triggered an alternative mission-The imprisoned phantom shadow rat.]
Mission title: The imprisoned phantom shadow rat.
Mission difficulty: SSS.
Mission description: You have discovered a rift passage that leads to a special game world. After entering the passage, you discover a phantom shadow rat that has been imprisoned by a special strength.
Mission option 1: Assist the phantom shadow rat in removing the bind on it.
Mission option 2: Try to defeat the phantom shadow rat.
Aktu had also received the game notification. He could not help but turn to look at Fang Heng beside him.
SSS difficulty level!
The highest-difficulty mission in the game!
This was the first time he had come into contact with it since he entered the game.
This kind of difficult mission had always been regarded as impossible by the players. The probability of success was too small, close to zero.
"Fang Heng, be careful. Look at the game prompt. This guy is definitely a commander-level creature."
"Okay, retreat a little and cover me."
The phantom shadow rat did not have much hatred for them, and the game notification also gave them a plan to complete it.
Perhaps there was no need to confront the phantom shadow rat head-on.
As Fang Heng thought about it, he carefully approached the phantom shadow rat.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the phantom shadow rat's body was densely covered with web-like patterns. Veins spread out from the dark red shackles on the phantom shadow rat's ankles.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
When the phantom shadow rat observed Fang Heng walking over slowly, it let out a several urgent cries at Fang Heng.
It sounded like it was urging him
Fang Heng observed the patterns on the phantom shadow rat's body and its previous series of actions, deep in thought.
He stopped and tried to open his hands again.
"Buzz."
The Book of Oaths floated in his palm.
"You want this?"
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
When the phantom shadow rat observed Fang Heng take out the Book of Oaths again, its pitch-black eyes were filled with anticipation, and it kept squeaking.
