Wang: “I don’t. Mind control can be resisted with willpower…”

Flint: “Wang is specialized in prophecy, right? Doesn’t the prophecy system have a lot of anti-psychic spells?”

Wang: “I’m only at the fourth ring.”

Xiaobai: “He must be very resistant to psychic effects, so he usually doesn’t need to use it. After all, even Shenwei Ruyue can resist it.”

The moment Xiaobai finished speaking, the jellyfish turned green: “The Four Rings can resist the might of God? How did they do it?”

Wang: “I don’t know.”

At this time, Marika raised her voice: “Everyone! I think we should ignore this evil plan now. Our goal is to save the world, and we are in a hurry to leave the Underdark and join the Floating City.”

Wang: “We were originally planning to go to the Gray Dwarf ruins to find a passage connecting to the ground.”

Marika: “Now there is a new option. Furu just said that there are drow elves nearby. This family may not have issued a wanted order for me, but wanted me to negotiate with them, and then use the drow’s passage to return to the ground.”

Elizabeth asked worriedly, “Will the Zhuoer family let us go so easily? Will they plot against us?”

Marika said confidently, “I can convince them. At worst, I can have an honor duel with one of them and win their respect. Then we can trade with them and use the knowledge in the king’s hands.”

The jellyfish suddenly glowed pink with delight: “Oh, now this drow has evil thoughts, Ammmm, so delicious.”

Wang looked at Marika: “What were you thinking about just now?”

Marika: “Nothing, just… I thought we could kill the whole family. It must be easier than fighting the mind flayers who have control over a large number of kuo-toa and duergar.”

Jellyfish: “Ahem, yummy!”

Elizabeth turned to look at the king: “Is it okay to be devoured by evil thoughts like this?”

Wang: “No, Furu swallowing spiritual energy will hardly affect the main body – I mean, there will be no perceptible impact. Evil creatures will not find themselves inexplicably becoming kind.”

Jellyfish: “After all, most evil creatures have no good thoughts at all. The drow don’t have many good thoughts at all. Their mental energy is still evil in total.”

Wang: “Wait a minute, you just said that Marika has only a few evils and is generally good? Just like that good drow elf named Cui?”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Bai exclaimed: “Oh! Marika has a smile on her lips, so disgusting!”

The dwarf quickly looked up at Marika and exclaimed, “Indeed, it’s disgusting!”

The jellyfish turned its two tentacles with eyes to look at Marika, and its body immediately became colorful and kept switching. This was a sign of its panic: “Wooooaaaa, I was so hungry and accidentally ate too much. Now she must be a kind creature!”

Flint held up the holy emblem: “The horns of Cailin, the kind drow elves are so disgusting! I feel physically uncomfortable! The light of Cailin deceived me, I want to eliminate this terrible evil!”

Xiaobai: “The dwarf has become incoherent!”

Nini commented: “It looks like my people got tanned. No… my people probably wouldn’t have such a kind smile, because elves are generally arrogant.”

Only Marika looked confused: “What? I’m the same as usual?”

Elizabeth pulled out a small hand mirror like a magician and handed it to Marika: “Look for yourself.”

Marika took the hand mirror in confusion, and the next moment she exclaimed: “Who is this? Who is this dark-skinned man with a gentle smile?”

Jellyfish (spinning in panic): “I’m sorry!”

Wang: “Malika, think of something evil, like imagine that one day you betray Elizabeth and rip her intestines out!”

Marika: “That’s impossible!”

Wang: “Then imagine what it would look like if you roasted Flint!”

Marika: “This is okay!”

Dwarf: “Why?”

……

After a long time of trouble, the evil drow elf finally came back.

Marika: “So, let’s go find my compatriots… No, ugh! Let’s find the damned drow!”

Wang: “I refuse.”

He turned to Furu: “Um…what’s your name?”

Jellyfish: “Franka.”

King: “Franka, have you noticed any strange lesions on the Kuo-Toa fishmen or the gray dwarves? For example, tumors?”

Franka turned around and said, “Kou-Toa and Duergar have always had a lot of tumors on their bodies, right? But recently there are indeed some guys who are considered deformed even among the Kuo-Toa.”

Wang snapped his fingers. “Look! This could be caused by a positive energy mutation! My hunch was right!”

Marika sighed: “I forgot that you are a wizard of the prophecy school…”

Chapter 284 It’s You, the Temporary Bard

Next, the rescue team began to withdraw from the camp and put their sleeping bags and other items into the dimensional bags.

Flint put out the fire in the helmet that was the main part of the campfire, looked inside with satisfaction and said, “Very good, the grease from yesterday has basically been burned up, it’s as clean as new. I guess the measuring ability hasn’t deteriorated yet.”

After saying that, he put the helmet on his head.

Elizabeth saw this scene and exclaimed: “You really don’t mind it.”

The dwarf shrugged. “What’s there to be dissatisfied about? It’s all burned up. It’s burned up accurately. The only problem is that the helmet is a little hot, but I just rinsed it with water when I put out the flames, so it’s acceptable. Steel cools down quickly anyway.”

Wang: “Because the specific heat is low.”

“What? Specific heat? Another word I don’t understand.”

At this time, Furuflanka said, “Since you are leaving, I will leave for now! I still have to look for the drow elves!”

Elizabeth: “Wait, you’re just leaving like that?”

Franka: “I have already told you the news, and I have confirmed that you are going to go and solve the problem. There is nothing I can do anymore.”

Wang: “Furu’s combat ability is very weak. It mainly relies on its psychic abilities to lurk around evil creatures. It really can’t help much.”

The jellyfish spun in the air. “Right, that’s why we told the adventurers about the bad guys’ plan. But I’m different from the rest of my compatriots. I can play the lute!”

Wang stopped and frowned at the colorful jellyfish: “Can you play the lud?”

Xiaobai: “Now let me explain. A green light is coming out of Wang’s body, and the breath he exhales is green!”

The jellyfish glowed pink: “Yes.”

Xiaobai: “Why is this jellyfish pink all day long?”

Franka: “Because our species is in pink most of the time.”

At this time, the king took out the lute from his dimensional bag and said to the jellyfish, “You play it.”

“Okay.” The jellyfish floated in front of the king and used its lower tentacles to roll up the two ends of the lute, being careful not to interfere with the strings, and then used its thinner tentacles to pluck the strings.

The melodious melody entered everyone’s ears.

Normally humanoids play the lute with the five fingers of both hands, but Franka uses many tentacles to replace the function of each finger.

After playing a few phrases, Franka and the piano spun in the air, emitting pink light and announcing: “I can also play some phrases that humans can’t play!”

After saying that, it extended more tentacles and began to play a complex melody that was impossible for a human to play.

Xiaobai: “Oh/”

As she uttered this long sound, her head subconsciously swayed along with the tone.

Wang: “You…seem to be able to play the role of a bard!”

Franka: “Fu?”

Xiaobai: “He really wants a bard in the team.”

The breath of the jellyfish turned into a mixture of green and yellow: “I don’t know the bard’s spell.”

Wang: “It doesn’t matter. When we encounter an enemy, you just need to keep using your psychic ability to talk to the enemy and disrupt him.”

Flint: “It sounds a lot like what a bard of the anecdote school would do, spitting all kinds of sweet words at the enemy in battle, causing the enemy’s mentality to explode and their movements to become uncoordinated.”

Wang: “Yes. How about it, Franka, you still don’t know what it feels like to be a bard?”

Franka blew out green gas, and its curiosity was aroused: “It sounds interesting. But I’m hungry now.”

Wang: “You can eat Marika’s evil thoughts.”

Marika was suddenly called out: “Ah? No, I don’t want to become like that!”

Elizabeth suddenly said, “Wait a minute, if Furu eats Marika’s evil thoughts, will our team be compatible with the Paladin? The Paladin won’t kill Marika just because she’s dark-skinned, right?”

The king stroked his chin and said, “That makes sense. A paladin is not a law and order guardian of a certain plane. He won’t empty his magazine just because he has dark skin.”

Flint also nodded. “It is indeed a solution. I like to have a drow elf with a kind and peaceful smile in the team. Damn it, Kailin, don’t speak with my mouth without saying anything!”

The eyes on Franka’s two tentacles turned to the dwarf, her body still green: “Fu?”

Wang: “This is Kailin’s chosen one and herald, and he has gained Kailin’s attention. Kailin will use his mouth to speak from time to time.”

Franka’s face turned orange-red in surprise: “Fufufufufu?!”

Wang: “Well, isn’t it a good idea to be a bard in our colorful team?”

The jellyfish spun around: “But why are you so obsessed with the bard?”

Wang: “Actually, it’s because we are very weak right now, so we want to use any method that can strengthen the team.”

Xiaobai: “No, he just thinks the Jellyfish Bard is awesome.”

Elizabeth nodded. “That’s absolutely the case.”

Wang ignored the two girls’ complaints and took a step forward: “And we will encounter many very evil creatures, you can feast on their evil thoughts.”

Furu kept circling in the air. This body movement could also express its emotions. Now it was very hesitant.

Finally, Franka sighed, “Okay, I’ve learned that you are unlucky adventurers trapped underground. It doesn’t seem right for me to assign the mission to unlucky people like you and then just walk away. At least I should watch you all get wiped out.”

Marika frowned: “Are you sure we are going to be wiped out?”

Franka: “That’s a scary guy who can keep my evil thoughts away. You might really become its slaves if you go there. It’s settled then. I will temporarily serve as your bard until you are wiped out or the evil entrenched in the gray dwarf stronghold is eliminated!”

Wang: “We don’t have to worry about the team being wiped out for now, because my right eyelid isn’t twitching. Anyway, let’s go once we’re ready.”

Franka turned green again: “Right eyelid twitching?”

Xiao Bai explained: “He is the so-called darling of fate. Fate has already ordained that he will leave a strong mark in this plane, so he will use his right eyelid to twitch to inform it that there is a crisis ahead.”
