Global Advent: Cthulhu’s Cavern Game

Chapter 262 The Man Who Gambled Against Time

Su Ke squinted his eyes and looked at the source of the sound.

He made a special voice just now to check if there is anyone alive.

Next to a rock, a man in a brown coat was lying on the ground, his hat moved slightly.

Su Ke walked up to him and took off his hat.

This is a twenty-three or four-year-old man, his eyes are weak and his lips are white, and he is obviously weak to the point of precariousness.

Su Ke took out a piece of milk bread from the print and handed it to the other party's mouth.

The man glared his eyes and bit the bread into his mouth with all his strength, for fear that it might run away.

"Thank you...you are such a kind gentleman..." After gorging himself, the man said weakly again.

The man just lay on the ground like this, and seemed to lose the strength to move.

Su Ke noticed that there were no prints on the opponent's wrist.

He sat down less than one meter away from the opponent, took out a piece of bread and put it to the opponent's mouth.

The man swallowed hard again, but let out a wry smile.

"Sir...Thank you again for your generosity, but your way...makes me feel like a monkey in a circus."

"Tell me about this place." Su Ke said calmly after feeding two pieces of bread.

"I don't know where this is... I just know that after being abandoned by the people on the boat, I floated on the sea holding the plank for a long time. When I woke up, I was swept in by a whirlpool, and then I fell here..."

Perceived by the clues of "private detectives", men should not lie.

If he lied, he could fool a Sequence 6 potion ability, and he wouldn't fall to this point at all.

But for insurance, Su Ke still asked: "Why are you abandoned."

"This..." The man seemed a little embarrassed. "I am an archaeological researcher and I was a student at El Nola Lake City University. I am very interested in the history of the Eternal Sea, so I applied for a place and came to the sea. "

Ernola?

Isn't this the name of another human kingdom, where Princess Freya came from.

The man reluctantly looked up, saw Su Ke’s expression, and said aloud: "Oh, I came to the sea before time was over, at that time Ernora was not blocked."

Su Ke frowned.

"blockade?"

"Sure enough, it seems that you don’t know... Elnora is a kingdom blessed by true gods. Before the end of the world, God used his power to make Elnora an existence independent of the world. People can live as usual, as long as If you don’t leave El Nora, you won’t be affected by the power of the god of doom."

At the same time, he added: "I think other countries that have the protection of the'present god' should do the same, becoming a Minor World that does not interfere with each other."

Now God, sequence 0...

It was the first time Su Ke heard about this kind of thing, and looked at the man in front of him with a sigh.

"Why don't you stay in Elnora, but choose to come to the sea specially before the end of the day?"

The reason why no one knows about this is probably because the people of Elnora are staying in their own country. Since they can live well under the protection of the gods, who would come to the sea to face the end of the world?

"Haha..." The man suddenly laughed twice. "At that time, my research was halfway through. If I stayed in El Nola, I would definitely spend the rest of my life there, and I would never know the historical truth of the Eternal Silence Sea. ."

"So I..." He swallowed his throat and continued, "I chose to apply for a place, come to the sea, and bet against the end time, and bet that someone will release the frozen time in a gentle way."

The man laughed again.

"Now it seems that I won the bet."

Su Ke shrugged.

"But you are trapped here now, maybe a few days later, your life will be lost, and time will eventually win over you."

He put down the third loaf of bread in front of the opponent, and at the same time put an orange.

The information provided by the man in front of him is very useful, it is best not to let him burp suddenly.

The man ate the bread and oranges, and finally moved his fingers slightly with strength, showing a wry smile.

"Yeah...Time is really terrible. More than two thousand years of time have passed by for me. I can't eat food for a month, but it makes me face the long torture of entering Death..."

He barely rolled over and looked at Su Ke.

"Although I am very grateful for your generosity, you are also trapped here. Try to save some food as much as possible. Don't give it to me like this."

He pointed to the place where he had just turned over.

"There is a fresh water source here. I have been relying on this for more than a month. The other trapped people ignored me. Only you gave me food without asking anything. I am willing to share it with you."

Thank you, I am not interested in licking water on the ground.

Su Ke laughed inwardly and returned to the original topic.

"Actually, you still didn't say why you were abandoned."

The man's face was taken aback.

"Ah... I'm sorry, I pulled away accidentally... Actually it's like this..."

The man told Su Ke that his name was Angus, and after the time was frozen three months ago, he continued to study the history of the Sea of ​​Eternal Silence.

During the journey, he accidentally learned about the appearance of Sequence 9 to 7 potions. You must know that, as a prosperous Elnora native, he knew how much risk he would take to directly take Sequence 6 potions.

But Sequence 9 seems to be different. This can give people spiritual power and the risk is relatively small. In order to facilitate research on the journey, Angus also took the potion of Sequence 9.

As a result, he did not expect that this move made him be treated as a heretic by the crew and thrown off the ship...

"..."

Su Ke sighed with a smile after listening.

The fate of this man is really tortuous.

But he is really fateful. If he hadn't been involved in the whirlpool, he would have been torn to pieces by the hordes of monsters that night, and he would not be able to wait to talk to him now.

"What is the name of the potion you are taking, do you know?"

"It seems to be called'researcher', right?"

Su Ke froze for a moment.

"Researcher", isn't it Sequence 8 of the "student" pathway?

Taking the potion of Sequence 8 directly seems to be the result of madness. Even Su Ke resurrected himself once and did not dare to start directly from Sequence 8.

He then asked: "What abilities do you have, can you still use it now?"

Angus nodded, raised a hand tremblingly, and waited for about five seconds.

Snap, a paper bag suddenly fell from the sky and landed between the two of them.

Su Ke: "..."

Angus put down his arm and said with a relieved expression: "How about it, isn't it of great research value?"

Seeing this, Su Ke couldn't stretch it anymore and smiled with his face covered.

He held Angus' shoulders in one hand, trying to find a sense of earnestness in his smile.

"Although this is ruthless, I still want to tell you that you were deceived by the person who sold you the potion."

Su Ke held back his tears and said.

"This is not a ‘researcher’, but a ‘takeaway’..."
