Chapter 150: First Entering Marathon(1/2)
Compared to Maraudon, Zul'Farrak is just an appetizer.
I heard from the guide before that the terrain of Marathon is very complicated. Before I even entered the dungeon, the maze outside the dungeon was surrounded by raging waves.
Intricate underground mazes, centaurs patrolling back and forth, large lizards lurking in the shadows, angry stone elements...
There are three branches: Purple Gate, Orange Gate, and Princess Gate...
Purple door and orange door are just players' terms, which correspond to two passages filled with magnificent purple and orange crystals.
Nu Tao didn't know the origin and material of these crystals, and it wasn't mentioned in the guide or background story, but they were really beautiful and emitted a charming light.
If it couldn't be pried, Nu Tao would have to put two pieces in the bag.
According to the guide, go through the Orange Gate first, and not far away you will see a lusty and pitiful little deer. Her name is Kaiwendra, and you will receive the mission [The Legend of Maraudon] from her.
Continue deeper, and there is a beautiful pool in front of you that is reflected in orange by crystals. Fill up the [Sky Blue Water Bottle] here.
Hmm...Why does this mission prop look a bit like Fanta?
Going further, I found the entrance to the dungeon. I didn't rush in and searched around outside for a few times. As expected, as the guide said, I found the soul of the third Khan Magra near a huge orange crystal.
There are five centaur khans. They are the first-generation descendants of Theradras and Zalta, and are also the ancestors of the five major centaur tribes today. However, they all died on the night of patricide, and their souls are constantly in Mara.
Wandering around for a while, trying to get my mother's forgiveness.
Using the soul pendant from the nameless prophet who had just entered the maze and killed it on Magla's soul, Magra's soul condensed from an invulnerable illusory state into a physical entity.
Kill him and get the mission item [The Third Khan’s Gem].
You can now enter the copy.
There are also orange crystals emitting a faint fluorescence on the walls of the Marathon dungeon, and level 445 piranha whippers and corrupted dryads line up to welcome the adventurers.
These mobs all drop quest items [Theradras Crystal Statue], and the probability is very high.
Not far after entering, I saw the soul of the Fifth Khan, Wenger, walking slowly towards him.
Use the Soul Pendant first, then kill it to get the [Fifth Khan's Gem].
There is a sickly little red-topped flower along the roadside, which is the Willistam vine.
[Pollution of Viritan] This task requires the player to treat 8 vines. Nu Tao uses [Sky Blue Water Bottle Filled with Water] on them. When the water is cured, Xiaohua immediately becomes more energetic, but at the same time, two water elements come from
Plants grew out and immediately attacked the angry waves.
These two water elements are called Noxan larvae. They are small, very cute, and are ordinary monsters that can be beaten to death in just two hits.
Walking inside, the terrain begins to go downwards, and the orange crystals gradually disappear, but it does not become dim. There are many fireflies that have built nests in the dead plants, emitting a bright yellow light, illuminating everything around them.
p>
Swaying plants, glowing fireflies, and strange fungi.
All this makes this place feel like a fantasy and magnificent underground world.
It would be better if these plants didn't have teeth...
Further forward, there were piles of green, bubbling, and dark crawling oozes blocking the way.
Sorry, I spoke too early.
Pulling these piles of ooze monsters together and killing them, Nu Tao had some bad premonitions.
Is there something like this later?
Good news! There’s no ooze behind you!
Bad news! Big maggots behind you!
In the next area, big green maggots and small pink maggots were crawling on the ground, and a pipe hanging from the ceiling was constantly spraying maggots out.
"Damn!" This scene made everyone curse.
No one wanted to come into close contact with these maggots, so Nesingwari could only use the Eye of the Beast to control the poor ghost leopard and run around in it, attracting all the maggots together, and then let Arugao fall into the snow.<
/p>
Attack and close the conduit leading to who knows where, and continue down to a place called the Poisonous Mushroom Cave.
There are many plants here, but they look decayed and decayed. They are obviously polluted and have no vitality at all.
Further ahead is the Poisonous Water Valley, where the rock wall above the head is covered with disgusting flesh and blood tissue. The flesh and blood are still squirming and shrinking, and streams of yellow poisonous gas are continuously spit out by these sarcomas in rhythm.
p>
"Oh my god..."
Compared with this nightmare-like scene, the pink maggots on the ground look so cute.
In the deepest part of Poisonous Water Valley, the water elemental BOSS Noxan lives here.
Everyone wanted to get out of here quickly, so they didn't waste time and quickly launched a siege on this guy.
Noxan will release poison, which can be continuously stacked and cause considerable damage. It can also split into several water elements with one move, and then merge into one.
But Druid is not good at anything else. He is good at detoxifying. As long as he detoxifies in time, this guy has nothing to fear.
It dropped the quest item [The Rod of Celebras] and an accessory that can detoxify [Heart of Noxan].
Nu Tao can detoxify itself, so there is no need for this thing at all, so I choose to give up.
They had four ROLL points, and finally this thing was rolled over by Nat Pago.
According to the guide, after the mission team defeats Noxan, they can go back to fight the Purple Gate. The last BOSS in the Orange Gate area has no mission.
But now that we are here, how can we not go and experience it?
The five of them continued forward, and after killing various piranha monsters along the way, they saw the last BOSS in the Orange Gate District at the end of a fork in the road - the Sharp Thorn Lasher.
Its appearance is exactly the same as those piranha flowers, but it is much taller, at least as high as two raging waves, and its whole body is a very beautiful silvery white, which is incompatible with the surrounding corrupt and decaying environment.
Perhaps as a plant, it is also struggling to resist unknown pollution...
But this has nothing to do with the player. As long as the equipment is exploded and the health bar is lit, everything will be killed without fail.
The sharp-thorn whipper was average in strength. After killing it, he dropped a pair of cloth-armored shoes with added intelligence and spirit, which Arugao took and put on.
After killing the BOSS, go back. If you take another branch from here, you can go directly to the purple door area of the dungeon. However, according to the guide, if you do this, there will be a lot of mobs along the way, and you will miss the mission BOSS, so everyone should stay the same.
The road retreats through the orange door.
According to the guide, you should now go back to the previous three-way intersection and take the princess area in the middle to kill the soul of the First Khan.
But the orange crystals all over the floor have blinded Nu Tao: "Do any of you still remember the way back? I can't find it."
"Haha! Leave it to the old hunter, I'm the best at finding the way!" Nesingwari volunteered.
Two minutes later, looking at the entrance to the Orange Gate copy that reappeared in front of him, Nesingwari was silent: "Well... I clearly remembered that I should go this way, why did I go back... It's not a big problem, let me try again.
Just a moment."
"Forget it, come with me." Van Cleef said.
"Give me another chance, I will definitely find the right path this time!"
Nesingwari was still shouting, but his teammates had already followed Van Cleef and left, so Nesingwari could only activate the Leopard Guard to catch up.
Van Cleef was still reliable, and under his leadership, the five of them successfully returned to the three-way intersection.
Take the middle arch, enter the princess area, go to the end to find the soul of the First Khan Caulker, use the soul pendant to make it active and then kill it to obtain the [First Khan's Gem].
Return to the three-way intersection and take the purple gate this time.
The purple door is similar to the orange door, both are covered with beautiful crystals, but the purple light emitted by the crystals here looks charming and mysterious.
The monsters here are giant snake-like rock borers and stone elementals called Shadow Shard Rangers.
This kind of stone element will drop the mission item [Shadow Fragment].
What is surprising is that [Shadow Fragment] is actually a shared drop. If you play one, five people can pick it up. This saves a lot of time. The previous energy stone mission of Uldaman did not share the drop. Five people can pick it up.
It lasted for more than an hour! I was in tears talking about it.
While humming a song, he happily killed stone elements, and along the way, he saw the soul of the second Khan Gerke who was thinking about it in front of a small well.
Kill him and get the [Second Khan’s Gemstone].
Now that four of the five gems have been obtained, the only thing left is the fourth khan hiding in the dungeon.
Defeat enough [Shadow Fragments] and enter the dungeon from the purple door.
Surprisingly, the monsters on the Purple Gate side are actually lemures and satyrs!
No wonder Maraudon showed signs of corruption. It turned out to be Sartre who was causing trouble!
I just don’t know how they sneaked into this tightly guarded Centaur Holy Land.
Fighting all the way in, in a slightly empty hall full of satyrs and lemures, the five found the soul of the fourth khan, Marados, who was patrolling back and forth here.
After killing it, you will get [The Fourth Khan’s Gem].
Put the five gems into the soul pendant, and the soul pendant turns into a union pendant.
There seems to be infinite power emanating from it, but this thing is a mission item. Even if it can destroy the world, players cannot use it and can only take it back and submit the mission.
To be continued...
