"Do you think anyone knows it? Does the old games still have inside information?" the uncle said in surprise.

"Games are rules that have been drawn up, so there must be insider information, and old games are no exception." Xu Bai looked at the forest and said, "It's just that how to find useful information in advance, or how to become a person who knows the insider requires everyone to rely on their abilities."

"Do you know something?" Zhao Qingtian asked.

Xu Bai nodded and admitted, "I know a little bit of news."

"There is a player named Criston. This guy has been preparing for the arrival of Lalaye for a long time, and there is also a team behind him to help him. For the information about Cthulhu and Lalaye, he may have the reserves that all qualified players cannot match."

He said, and took the two of them to the forest inside the island.

"I look a little suspicious about the two men in black robes. It seems that they are prepared. I will follow the two men in black robes first, and maybe I can find unexpected news."

Zhao Qingtian was not confused about how Xu Bai knew about this news, but instead asked: "What do you mean is that in addition to the global copy, Criston has other purposes?"

Xu Bai snapped his fingers and said, "I guessed it right! Do you want to reward Xiu Ges's little Maruko?"

Zhao Qingtian: "..."

Seeing that Zhao Qingtian did not respond, Xu Bai looked at the uncle next to him.

The uncle smiled very awkwardly and quickly waved his hand to refuse.

Only Xiu Ges was offended, and angrily simulated a slender tentacle, knocking Xu Bai's head hard.

Soon, they had completely entered the forest part.

The sound of waves outside was significantly weakened, and the island was so quiet that it was scary. In the huge island, plants were still nutritious, but there were rare no organisms.

There are no wild beasts or insects, like an abandoned deserted island. There are no creatures here. Even the humans who suddenly enter the island seem to offend the tranquility here.

"I clearly saw them walking here. Are they proficient in anti-reconnaissance techniques?" Xu Bai followed in it for a while, and finally lost here.

"The key is that your investigation techniques are not good, okay," Zhao Qingtian complained.

Along the way, the uncle was a little nervous.

"Xu Bai, who did you say the murderer who killed Jason? Could it be the Criston you mentioned?"

The death of qualified players is still a mystery, but finding the heraldry is the primary task than tracing the cause of death.

Xu Bai shook his head and said, "I don't know, the statement that the player killed was all speculation. It is not ruled out that Jason saw something terrible, and then he could not bear the fear. His rational value instantly fell out, and he didn't even have the chance to go crazy, and he died directly."

"Or he was indeed killed by the player, but the way to kill him was to let Jason see unbearable things. Anyway, this is not a contradiction. The cause of death can be speculated by imagination, but thinking too much is not a good thing."

He said, pointing to the land under his feet.

"The city of Lalaye is at your feet, and who knows what we will see on this island."

"It may also be a monster that we cannot see, but Jason can only see it, and uses methods that others cannot explain to kill Jason."

"The unseen monster." The uncle swallowed and worriedly said, "You mean...there will be ghosts!"

Xu Bai explained: "It should be either ghosts, or things that can only be seen at low rational values, just those guys, just like the shadow monster I have seen, with only a phantom, but the shape is so weird that it is hard to describe."

"There were no old games at that time. I could see them since I was a child, and no one else could see the shadow monster I was talking about. I was talking about this kind of thing."

It is inevitable that there are indeed people on this island that can kill players. Whether it is enemies or friends, this makes players nervous.

Since Xu Bai and the man in black robe lost, the three of them had not learned any means of investigation, so they simply stopped looking for traces of the man in black robe.

During this period, like other players, they were looking for heralds in the islands, but they continued to penetrate the forest, and they did not find any clues.

"Where will the Cthulhu's emblem be hidden on the island?" Zhao Qingtian wrapped his yellow cloak tightly.

She was rummaging through the grass again, but she got nothing.

"Jason's location was on the coast, and the heralds were found on him, and Lalaye was also on the bottom of the sea. Both directions were related to sea water. Do you think it would be floating by the water on the coast? Or would it be on the bottom of the sea? Want players to fish?"

The information is pitifully small, and being able to connect these key fragments, Zhao Qingtian actually came to the conclusion that he used fishing to catch the heraldry in his hands.

"Maybe it's like a treasure hunt. Find a cave and go around in the end. You can really find a treasure chest. There is a Cthulhu seal in the treasure chest!" Xu Bai said.

The uncle said, "Are you sure? If it is really hidden in the cave, it will definitely not be able to obtain it so easily."

"Maybe there are heraldic emblems at the end, there are probably some mechanisms, magic circles, and even those old creatures will be released?"

"Lalaye hasn't even started yet, so the game operation should be reluctant to let players die so quickly." Xu Bai said seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stared at by Zhao Qingtian and his uncle.

Xu Bai smiled and explained: "Of course, I'm an exception."

The few people continued to go deeper inside, but still found no trace of the man in black robe. These areas covered by the forest are not confined. There is no darkness around the world now. They will not easily miss details with sufficient lighting. However, after careful searching, there is actually no useful gain.

Until they came to a passage with streams flowing, which was a stream cast by time. On a stone near the stream, Zhao Qingtian discovered a strange symbol.

The twisted characters have only a few bytes, like markers, but this is extremely similar to some symbols on the Cthulhu heraldry that I saw before.

“Some discoveries!”

She immediately called the two of them to check.

After discovering this detail, the three of them immediately searched around the stone.

Sure enough, after not long searching, Xu Bai discovered the same mark as the one on the stone. It was carved on the trunk in front of him. If he had not carefully checked it, he would have ignored it when passing by.

All three of them found certain rules, and under the guidance of this type of symbol, they kept walking up the stream.

Finally, follow the guidance to the deepest pool.

Crash-

The top-down waterfall flows with cold spring water, flows into the stream along the fault-blocked pool, and then flows into the Pacific Ocean.

"The last mark is right next to it. If you want to continue searching, you can only look under the water." Zhao Qingtian said.

The mark guided them to the water. If they wanted to go into the water, the water in the pond was not clear. Instead, it was deep like the blue of extremely ice. What was penetrated down was the bottomless darkness.

No one knows what is under the water. Even now they have never seen any monsters or indescribable summons. However, all this has really made people retreat when they have to dive into the unseen water.

"Is there any Cthulhu's emblem inside?" The uncle couldn't figure it out.

It would be great if there were really heralds inside, but if there were a few deep divers living under the water, or something hidden that could affect a person's mental state, it wouldn't be a joke.

The few people were speechless, thinking about whether they should go into the water to find it. It was just a mark, and it was not 100% sure that it was a Cthulhu's emblem, and it was accompanied by unknown risks.

"I can't swim." Xu Bai said with confidence.

The uncle looked at Zhao Qingtian, "I'll go down and see. I'll feel at ease if you two are here to guard me."

As he said that, he bought a bundle of nylon ropes from the game mall, and after taking off his clothes on the spot, he showed the rough and strong muscles on his upper body, and even the shoulders still had blue veins on his arms, and the strong figure as hard as an iron tower.

The uncle wrapped the nylon rope around his waist and abdomen for a few times, and then tied it to a firm place.

He tied the rope on the other end to a tree closest to him, and then said to the two: "What happened after I went down. I will send you a message. You can help pull me up."

"If I don't send you a message, and it takes more than 5 minutes, you will send me a message. If I haven't responded yet, I should also pull me up immediately."

Just as the three of them finished discussing, the uncle was about to enter the water to investigate.

Several people heard some strange sound at the same time!

Rumble rumble—

The call that seemed to come from ancient times, and the evil moan was mixed with treacherous and unspeakable wails from time to time, as if the summons brought by extremely powerful forces on the edge of the universe.

The sound floated in the world, and the evil roars that were far and near were rumbling directly in their ears. The call of the demons enveloped the entire island of Ponape.

It is like the world, like an abyss, where everyone is surrounded by the malice of the abyss in the huge mouth of the abyss. This kind of murmur is like an evil god, or a summoning that can attract people's souls.

The three of them looked at each other immediately, and from their expressions, they could see that this sudden weirdness was not the illusion of one or two people!

The uncle's hair was blown up, and his voice was a little weak: "In the nightmare I had before, the call I heard... This is the sound in the nightmare!"

"It seems you have heard it too! It's this strange call that always goes step by step, and is always far and near!"

"I originally thought it was just in a dream...now... it really appeared!"

When the uncle spoke, he shivered unconsciously, and the sudden shock made him not ready.

He looked around and saw that the island was still so quiet. Apart from the sound of the waterfalls beside him, there seemed to be no change here.

Zhao Qingtian was relatively calm. Perhaps because of his relationship with wearing yellow clothes and wearing a mask, Hasta could help him reduce this kind of impact. This sudden call was cut too much for him.

The uncle and Xu Bai were listening to huge echoes in their ears, but in her ears, they were only as small as mosquitoes.

"My sanity is still good, and it has not decreased yet."

"But I heard it too."

"My rational value is also stable." The uncle also said that he had not decreased, but fine sweat began to ooze from his forehead.

Xu Bai said with a serious expression, "Maybe this is a sign of the arrival of Lalaye City."

"The global nightmare event may be the beginning, and this situation may become more and more serious."

"We are in the closest place to the city of Lalaye, and naturally the impact we feel will be stronger. If we don't feel any impact, it is strange."

He walked to the pool and continued, "Or, maybe we were approaching the heraldry of Cthulhu, and this sound was a reminder from the heraldry."

Even this kind of whisper like an evil god cannot shake their rationality, but the constant harassment of humor in their ears is still very soundproof after listening for a long time.

The uncle who had been relieved for a while was obviously much more adaptable. Then, he did not hesitate. After checking that the knot was fine, he made an OK gesture to his teammates.
