Chapter 324 323. Ups and downs are the daily life of a Vault Hunter
"Damn it, brother Bang, aren't your men elite? How come they were wiped out in one wave!"
While Murphy was talking to Lord Pa Ying, the young players who had just suffered a group-destroying disaster in Xiko City also began to communicate after the disaster. Little Rich Brother's slightly surprised exclamation came from behind.
A message rang out in the chat, causing Happy Stick, who was far away in Xi Ke Territory and was marching towards the southern arsenal of the Blood Vulture Clan, to answer with a painful look on his face:
"Well, it's very common for a horse to stumble. The good news is that the information and map we bought from the little count for 150,000 gold coins are true. There is really a big treasure underground in Xiko City. The bad news is, then
The place is an advanced map.
I think if you want to have a small team to hunt for treasure, you must at least have a Silver-level player to take the lead. If you want to move in on a large scale, you can probably trigger a hidden raid.
You haven't seen the entire dead city come to life.
All I can say is that compared to Xiko City, the ghoul army we encountered in the sewers of Scarlet Castle is just an ‘appetizer’.”
"Damn it, are you so awesome?"
After Mo Youqiong heard this, his first reaction was shock. He asked:
"But isn't Transia a 'Novice Village'? How can an advanced dungeon be opened in a Novice Village? What did the development team think?"
"It's not necessarily a group version."
At this time, Brother Meow Meow, who was sitting on the gargoyle and had just finished bandaging himself, also joined the "group chat". With a feeling of joy that he had survived the disaster, he said to Brother Xiaofu:
"When we asked for leave from Knight Valander just now, we saw Knight Goshawk discussing something with the young earl. We only heard a few words, but they must be related to the old earl Xiko.
I guess that when we were besieged by the undead army, they also encountered unexpected things in the city, so there must be a possibility that Xiko City can become our "friendly unit" in the future.
Didn't your gay friend trigger a new profession before he was alive and well, and there was a "coffin bearer" related to undead creatures?
I think Xiko City may be the high-level job transfer place for the power of the undead. If you look at the plots in those classic games, there will definitely be a super huge task chain that will ultimately guide us to help the little count complete the mission of father and daughter.
Reunion."
Having said this, Brother Miao Miao grinned and imagined:
"Perhaps this is Transia and Lord Murphy's trump card? Maybe after the arrival of the Black Disaster, once the war goes unfavorable, it will evolve into an army of jackals VS the sea of the undead?
Damn it! Thinking about it this way, maybe the answer to the next version is to be an undead manipulator!"
"As you may think, considering the number and strength of the undead camp in Xiko City, what will happen even if the necromancer profession is really opened up? You only need a few thousand necromancers at least to control it, right?"
Brother Bang is far from optimistic.
Perhaps it was because the blow he encountered made him regain his vigilance and made him think about the problem very realistically. At this time, he was sitting on the gargoyle flying at high altitude. Under the control of Yan Sang, a professional pilot, the huge gargoyle flew again and again.
Steady and fast, Brother Bang looked at the ground ahead and took out the treasure map he got from Mr. Murphy to compare it with the terrain.
He said:
"Let's not talk about Xi Ke City for now. I just want to report to you. Although our entire army was wiped out this time, we still gained something. About fifty gold bricks will be handed over to you after I return."
"Awesome!"
Brother Xiaofu praised:
"You can still get a harvest under this situation. As expected of Brother Bang, but I won't be able to use so much for the time being. The administrative office has not opened the banking system. I can't just find a place to dig a hole and bury the gold bricks, right?
Besides, your team has suffered such a big loss, why don’t you make another round?
You obviously need money more than me now, Brother Bang, I know you are under pressure, but don’t worry about it yet!
I’m not a shady boss who wants to exploit you, so there’s no need to be so desperate.”
"No, just one code and one code."
Happy Stick said very firmly:
"It's your business whether you want it or not. I have to correct my identity, otherwise our cooperation will not be able to continue. Let's do this. I will keep ten yuan as the pension to be paid to the brothers later, and the rest
You take it and use it however you want."
"Your good friend Lao Huo doesn't have an administrative career. Will he be the village chief in the future?"
Brother Miao Miao was beside him and gave an idea and said:
"Now Transia is full of waste. If they want to develop the village quickly, they need start-up capital. How about using these forty gold bricks to invest in Lao Huo's village just like you invested in Bangge's team.
I think your brother is not an ordinary person. He looks polite on the surface but is hiding something underneath. He is probably going to cause a big deal. Believe me, investing in him is definitely the right thing!
It might be a very profitable business."
"Well, that makes sense! That's my brother, so I still have to support him."
Brother Xiaofu was quickly convinced and agreed to the distribution plan of Happy Sticks. Finally, he warned:
"If you need help, just say something. I'll gather people from Scarlet Castle to bring you reinforcements. Don't just keep your face and keep your mouth shut, otherwise something will happen."
After saying that, he took the initiative to hang up the communication.
Brother Bang put away the calculation orb and looked silent. Brother Mingmiao next to him came over and said:
"Your boss is really a good person. He's good in all aspects, but he's a little too naive. No wonder I was so miserable by those old guys when I started the company before."
"The better he is, the more pressure I have. It's one thing to use fish as a means to outwit a stupid boss, but it's another thing to bully a kind-hearted fool. It always makes me feel uneasy."
Happy Stick shook his head and said:
"Stop talking about this, let's talk about the next actions."
"What's the point? You just find a place and we can rush down and do it. That place is so remote, I don't believe that powerful guards can be spawned!"
Brother Mew Miao curled his lips. He was silent for a moment and then bumped Happy Stick's shoulder and asked:
"How much is your 'potential release' bar?"
"10%, what about you?"
Brother Bang turned around and asked, Brother Mingmiao shrugged and said:
"I'm 13%, which is a little more than you. This guy needs to get more than 70% before he can open the Silver Trial. According to the current progress, he probably won't be able to get it in two months. Speaking of which, I always feel that we used the wrong method.
The potential release of the Black Iron level at this stage should not be as simple as fighting, otherwise the frequency and intensity of our fighting in recent times would not even be able to increase by 20%.
We need to study this carefully when we have free time later, otherwise it would be too stupid to wait until the Black Disaster breaks out and still stay at the Black Iron level.
I heard that when the black disaster really comes, the ground will be full of black iron, and the silver will not be as good as a dog. Our current individual strength is still too weak."
"That's not what you said. You still haven't broken away from the traditional power model of upgrading and fighting monsters."
Happy Stick obviously has different views on this issue.
He said:
"To give you the simplest example, Lord Murphy is also a black iron-level person, but you have also seen his combat prowess. Do you think ordinary silver creatures are his opponents?
Of course, you can also say that it is the prerogative of the mainline NPC, but I think in a 100% realistic game we'd better not have such naive ideas.
The right way is to learn from our predecessors on the path of strength. Maybe we should learn from Lord Murphy. You know he practices swordsmanship with that magic sword in the Blood Vulture Corridor every day. I have quietly observed before that he practices every day.
The swordsmanship styles are all different.
Perhaps, this is the secret to unlocking potential.
Not just fighting, but also learning.”
"Study."
The old cousin who was quenching poison on his dagger and dagger next to him raised his head when he heard this, rolled his eyes and said:
"No matter how old we are, we don't study hard in reality. You want us to concentrate on getting a certificate in the game? This is not realistic at all."
"That's what I said. I don't have a definite answer, right?"
Happy Stick snorted and said:
"Perhaps the potential of the Black Iron level must be improved slowly over time. Didn't the NPC also say that? This stage must be slow. This is the time to lay the foundation and create your own fighting style. Upgrading to the Silver level too quickly will only make you lose weight.
Potential lost in vain.
By the way, if you follow this view, then the content of the Silver Trial must not be combat, right?"
"I heard it's called 'atavism'."
Lao Qu also joined the discussion.
Holding his beloved shotgun, he took out a snuff bottle and put it under his nostrils, and whispered:
"I talked about this with Grandma Marian before at the Adventurer's Guild camp. Grandma told me that the contents of the Silver Trial are different for each race, but the common point is that they all have to trace the source of their bloodline and obtain the so-called
'Ancient Power'.
For example, the members of the Adventurer's Guild include many Kates. The racial talents of the Kates from Greene Island are related to natural psychic abilities. Once the silverization is completed, the witch hunter's skills will not only be enhanced, but also the racial talents can be obtained.
Obtain new racial skills during awakening.
Aunt Marianne said that she had seen a master witch hunter obtain the powerful ancestral power of "summoning thunder eagles and flying lions" when he broke through to the silver level.
She also gave the simplest example, that of Miss Femis.
I don’t know if you have noticed it, but after the eldest lady came back this time, her wings were at least two circles larger than before, and her flying speed was at least twice as fast.
Maybe this is the silver version of the blood vulture vampire?"
"Well, it probably means 'finding strength within'?"
Brother Heishi rubbed his chin and guessed:
"To go from professional to black iron is to release the body's potential, and to go from black iron to silver is to release the potential of the race's bloodline. So from silver to gold, you probably need to seek external enhancement to complete the evolution of your life form?"
"This is wrong!"
Shieldman Sanwudou quickly discovered the blind spot, he frowned and said:
"According to Sister Marian, each race has its own bloodline potential that can be explored, but we players are not broken down into races at all, right?
We are human beings, and we don’t know whether we are Kates, Sealanders or Nords? Or even mountain people or barbarians, a human subspecies. The development team has not done any content in this aspect. It is no wonder that our potential release bar has increased.
So slow.
I guess we may have accidentally discovered a hidden bug."
"Can't this be called a BUG?"
Jiechong, the last member of Brother Mow Miao’s team, whispered:
"At most, the gameplay is not perfect. Maybe the development team is making content in this area? I think with the update frequency of "Real World", it will be a matter of time to complete the subdivision of player races.
Maybe there will be a choice in the future that will allow us to freely choose our own race.
At that time, the Silver Trial will be truly completed.
Ha, no wonder NPC has been emphasizing that you should not rush to improve the black iron level. It took a long time but the development team has not finished the content development in this area! What a thief."
"Hey, if we really follow this statement, I guess this aspect must be completed before the black disaster breaks out at the latest."
Brother Miao Miao grinned and said:
"The dog planner is not going to really throw a group of black iron-level players into the cruel black disaster battlefield, right? That would be too heartless."
"That's right, so now I just need to be patient and wait."
Brother Bang nodded, and Yan Sang, who was flying the gargoyle in front, said:
"We're almost there, brothers, hurry up and get ready. Brother Bang, bring me the map to look at and choose a good place for us to land accurately."
"I'm coming."
Happy Stick moved behind the crowded gargoyles and unfolded the map in his hand in front of Yan Sang's eyes.
The professional pilot glanced at the positioning point, compared it with the terrain below, nodded and said:
"Very good, it's in the mountains in front. Speaking of which, this place is quite remote. It's already at the junction of Xi Ke Territory and Sachs Mountain Forest. Why would the Blood Vulture Clan put its arsenal here?"
"It is said that the construction time of this arsenal coincided with the Second Night War."
Happy Stick explained:
"The background at that time was that the Old Church of Nature was invading the mountain people's woodlands in a large scale and wanted to conquer the mountain people here while fighting vampires, so Salokdar established an arsenal here to prepare to support the mountain warriors of the Portia Confederation at any time, but
In the end this place was not used.
However, the arsenal of the Blood Vulture Clan has been built, so it was hidden in case of emergency. The same situation applies to the arsenal to the south.
But it was built earlier, and it is said to have been built after the third Black Disaster.
That place is very secretive.
Even Mrs. Tris doesn’t know exactly where the arsenal is, she just said it seems to be close to the Crimean Fortress, and it must be somewhere in the Dark Barony."
"I asked you, can you be more serious? This is a treasure hunt! Finish the current one first and then the one in the south. This treasure hunt line is basically yours alone, so don't look at the heights of other mountains."
Brother Meow Meow was able to see clearly. A few minutes later, the huge gargoyle slowly landed in a forest. Brother Meow Meow jumped a few times. Then he took the map in his hand to determine the direction, and then asked his team members
explain:
"Yansang, use your heavenly eyes to see if it's around here?"
Professional investigator Yan Sang was tired after flying the "Gargoyle Plane" for a day, but he didn't say anything more. He just raised his hand in displeasure and activated his investigative technique again.
The perspective suddenly shifted to a high-altitude bird's-eye view, allowing him to take in a panoramic view of the nearby mountainous terrain.
Happy Stick received the task of exploring the Blood Vulture arsenal from Murphy, but Murphy himself didn’t know exactly where the Blood Vulture arsenal was hidden. He could only give a general direction according to Tris’ reminder, but the Blood Vulture clan hid something.
It's definitely more than just finding a corner.
According to Tris's guess, that place should be near a remote village here.
Using this information as a guide, Yan Sang quickly discovered a suspicious area. He searched for a small settlement in the valley near a stream.
Just as he was about to report, Yan Sang suddenly made a confused sound. He took out a psychic weapon used to enhance the effect of detection techniques from his arms, narrowed his perspective again, and then exclaimed:
"No! The village that is suspected to be a treasure trove has been destroyed, and there is still a fire burning. There are people over there! They are moving things from the underground to the ground, damn! Brother Bang, the arsenal you are looking for may have been captured first!"
"Fuck! Can this still happen?"
Happy Stick immediately became angry.
His treasure hunting journey was not going well at all, and he was simmering with anger. He suddenly stood up, grabbed the hussar sword, and was about to rush over to kill the thieves, but he was held back by Brother Meow Meow.
The cunning social man asked the investigator of his team:
"How many people are there? Can you tell who they are?"
"There are not many people, only a dozen or so."
Yan Sang responded while adjusting the magic weapon to see more clearly:
"The terrain over there is complicated. I won't be able to see their specific features for a while, but I saw someone flying among the rocks. They should be vampires? But they are definitely not from our side."
"Able to fly and find this secret place accurately, he must be the blood vulture traitor who didn't clean up before!"
Sanwu Dou picked up his awesome heavy shield and one-handed hammer and said to the others:
"I heard Lord Maxim's heir reveal that there are some blood vulture traitors hiding in the mountains and forests in Xi Ke's territory. The mountain people do not allow too many vampires to enter their mountains and forests, which led to the death of Mrs. Adele's subordinates.
Assassins can't track them effectively either.
However, the mountain people seem to be hunting these vampires who betrayed Transia, and the Blood Rat Gang has a long-term reward for them. As long as they bring back the vampire heart, they can get a reward.
This is the secret vault of the Blood Vulture. These traitors know the location and can explain it.
Hey, don't you think this is a coincidence?
This wave must be won! Just enough to make up for Brother Bang’s losses.”
"Yes! How can you not eat the meat delivered to your door?"
Happy Bang smiled and said:
"Go! Brothers, kill them! The bounty will be divided equally among us."
