The female archer led the team reacted very quickly. While shouting loudly, she just tweaked the bowstrings, and the magic power automatically condensed into an arrow with orange-red fire that shone like lightning and shot straight from the strings. The strange sword that suddenly came alive in Wang Zongchao's hand.

She is an elite fire archer. Even if she does not use real arrows, she can have lethality by condensing her magic power alone. Moreover, the enchanted longbow in her hand also has "enhanced flame damage" and "explosive flame splashing". After hitting the target, a flame burst effect will be added. Therefore, even if the sword in Wang Zongchao's hand is destroyed in time, the fragments will inevitably hurt Wang Zongchao. However, it is important to save people at the moment, and there seems to be no other choice.

Next, the female archer realized that she was just like the last time she tried to stop the arrival of the King of Blood, and she was once again missed.

The sword that came alive seemed to be bound by some invisible force. The blade was twisted violently and trembled violently, but it was always held steadily by Wang Zongchao and could not turn it out of the sky. As for the magic arrow she shot out in a hasty, it was also frozen in the air by a mysterious force. Not only did it not explode, but the orange-red fire light quickly faded and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Is it a magical shield that absorbs magic and a confinement magic field? Is this person a mage?... or a magic assassin?" The female archer put away the longbow in a bit disappointed. This was the first time she had encountered such a hidden magic wave, even after being attacked, there was no sign of protective magic, which made her knowledgeable and misjudged repeatedly.

Generally speaking, although mages can make their magic more hidden at a series of costs such as increasing the difficulty of casting and reducing power, this does not mean much to orthodox mages. On the contrary, magic assassins will consider this aspect. However, as we all know, assassins will never bless themselves with any protective magic, because no matter how obscure the protective magic is, it will increase the possibility of being discovered, and the most important thing for assassins to ensure that they do not easily reveal their whereabouts.

After several blows, the female archer had secretly swore that she would never try to judge the profession of this group of mysterious Eastern visitors with black hair and black eyes.

As if that wasn't the case, Wang Zongchao nodded to her in a gentle and polite tone and asked, "What's going on with this sword?"

"This is a devil's trap, which we generally call it the 'flying scimitar', although it may also be other types of weapons." The female archer explained: "When it is traumatized by very strong death trauma, the dead soul occasionally attaches to death-related items, most of which are weapons used by the deceased during his lifetime or weapons to kill him. And when these weapons are contaminated by the power of the demon, they will briefly possess life, implementing the last thought they were used - to destroy their opponents!"

"Let the inanimate object have life?" Wang Zongchao murmured to himself as he looked at the long sword that had gradually changed from the desperate struggle just now to the dying spasm.

"'Revitalized objects' is the curse ability possessed by many demons. Although this kind of life is often short-lived, it can be used to create some fatal traps. Many adventurers try to open a box of unknown origin. As a result, they are swallowed by the box with fangs. Some large dead woods and stone statues may survive to become the demon's pawn for this reason. In addition, the necromancer also has similar abilities." The female archer has now begun to regain balance psychologically. Although the other party has many mysterious elements that they don't know for themselves, they have common sense known to many adventurers. However, the other party also acts as ignorant as a hillbilly, which fully proves that the other party is indeed a foreign visitor from the far east.

"This information is very important, leave this sword for me to study." Chu Xuan pushed the flat-light glasses at the long sword, and a series of data streams began to flash on the glasses.

"It seems not possible..." Wang Zongchao shook his head. As he spoke, the sword stopped "spasm", and the dark blue magic light emitted on the sword blade also dimmed. Then the sword began to break inch by inch, and the fragments dropped to the ground quickly melted, and in an instant it turned into a pile of dirty mucus mixed with silver gray and reddish brown. An extremely uncomfortable smell emanated, which was a smell similar to melting iron smell mixed with sulfur and strong acid.

"What a pity..." Chu Xuan first expressed his regret coldly. Then he said: "From the spectral analysis just now, the material of this sword is still metal, but it is no longer an ordinary solid metal inorganic substance, but a very disordered and indescribable semi-fluid. Perhaps it is this strange structure that subverts the natural laws to make the sword come alive, but it is also a very unstable structure, so the "lifetime" of this sword is very short."

"It's indeed 'chaotic'!" Wang Zongchao nodded and affirmed, "It's not just the chaos of the energy category, but also the chaos of matter and laws, thus confusing the boundary between life and death and subverting the natural law of 'lifeless objects will not move'."

"Uh, will the armor and weapons on a person be transformed into life to attack him during the battle?" Luo Gandao's expression changed slightly as he heard it.

"This is impossible!" A strong man with a big waist and round waist who came with the female archer said in a muffled voice. Just as everyone looked at him and wanted to hear what he had, he patted the thick war hammer on his waist with force and said firmly: "I fully trust my weapons, and my weapons will never betray me!"

This kind of anti-willed reply naturally lacks a lot of persuasion. The female archer gave a better explanation: "Enchanting equipment has a certain magic resistance, and it is not so easy to be activated and controlled by the demon. If the demon is really powerful, other more labor-saving and direct ways can be used to kill the adventurer. Therefore, the 'reactivated object' can only be used to make traps and temporary puppets."

After getting the answer, Zhongzhou Team and others did not continue the topic. However, this important information still reveals the problems that high-tech weapons may encounter in the dark world - after all, generally high-tech weapons do not have magic resistance. In addition, there are likely other constraints and obstacles, so you cannot attack rashly before you figure it out thoroughly.

At the same time, after some exchanges, the Zhongzhou team and others roughly figured out the current situation and the identity of the adventurer in the team in front of them.

This is a vast land called Kandulas. The former ruler, King Leoric, brought a group of knights and priests in the name of the Church of Light, Sakalam, and called himself the king. He also embezzled an old and dilapidated temple located on the outskirts of Tristram as its palace and rebuilt it (Sakalam can basically be regarded as the medieval Holy See, with the right to enthrone the royal family, and King Leoric is also similar to the king of medieval Europe. There are many small priests and knights under his rule, but they are nominally obeyed him and do not have the supreme authority of centralization).

At first, King Leorick won the respect and love of the locals with his fair and tolerant style. Unfortunately, a certain evil force that had been sleeping in the darkness of the monastery for many years began to affect King Leorick's mind, making him become cruel and irrationally announcing the war against the northern empire Westma. This hasty war naturally ended with the retreat of the Kandulas army and the terrifying massacre.

When Lazidaran, the leader of the Knights of Light Discipline who was loyal to King Leoric, tried his best to collect the remaining soldiers and retreated back to his country, he found that King Leoric, who was deeply in pain and mad, had started a massacre in the country because of the mysterious disappearance of his son, and executed countless innocent people. When Lazidaran tried to dissuade him, he was believed by King Leoric to be involved in the plot to kidnap his son. He wanted to execute him and all the remaining soldiers for treason. Realizing that his king was hopeless, Lazidaran finally raised his sword and penetrated the heart of King Leoric. The once noble king let out a terrifying near-death scream. He cursed all this

Those who betrayed him began to summon the power of darkness. The originally sacred monastery began to fall, and the gloomy light shone out from the dark windows of the monastery. A creepy low whisper and terrifying screams came from the deep underground. Countless deformed monsters began to appear from the shadow of the church. All the people of Kandulas were trapped in an extremely deep terrifying nightmare... During this period, the Archbishop Lhasalu, who had completely fallen and corrupted, successfully lured a large number of villagers into the monastery, trapped them to death in the dark underground palace where monsters emerged, and died in deep despair and fear, as a sacrifice for the demons.

Adventurers who came from the news began to assemble in nearby towns and entered the monastery one by one, but they all went without returning, instead increasing the power of the evil army. It was not until a master adventurer named Ed entered the ground with two mages of equal strength and archers who had become the skeleton king, that he had eliminated King Leorick, who had turned into the skeleton king.

Ed was promoted to legend in that battle. He became an existence that countless adventurers looked up and envied, but he became more and more dark and withdrawn after that, and quietly set out for the east more than two months ago. Shortly after he left, thousands of demonic resistance began to surge out from the ground, attacking towns, and burning everything to the ground. Human beings are no longer the master of this land full of war and curses. In fact, except for the densely defended castles and camps, the blood-stained wilderness has completely become a paradise for monsters and undead.

Among these remaining camps against demons, the Roger camp established by the Blind Nun is the most powerful mainstay. As the most powerful legendary level of the Blind Nun in the Kingdom, its leader Akara gained some vague sense of the past, future and unknown changes after losing sight through special rituals. It was this prophet sensing that allowed her to lead a group of the Blind Nun nuns and female archers from the fallen monastery in advance, formed the Roger camp, and did her best to gather the remaining human force of this land.

The female archer who led the team is named Fravey, who is an elite archer in the Roger camp. The team also includes four other female archers, including the barbarian warriors Renault, Hawks and the female druid Winches, forming a scout team. They are mainly responsible for inquiring about the movements of monsters, drawing maps of monster distribution, and trying to rescue them, bringing together the lonely adventurers and surviving humans, and preparing for future counterattacks. The archers of the Blind Nun Society have more than the "Prophet" after reaching the elite level.

The "mind-eye" ability at the upper level can be used to fight and see the crisis during adventure. This ability is one of the fundamental guarantees for their survival in the wilderness where monsters emerge. In addition, the keen sense of smell and wild perception of female druids in their team are also very important, which makes them almost never fall into a siege. Instead, they have made many gains and dealt with many single monsters. Of course, all this is a tiny witch compared to the feats of the Zhongzhou team and others when they first arrived.

"Are you sure you only have seven people?" Qin Zhuiyu suddenly asked meaningfully, and his eyes intentionally or unintentionally looked at a dead tree not far away.

Fravi's face changed slightly. But in a blink of an eye, he calmed down and said as if nothing had happened: "I'm sorry, even we often ignore Anya's existence, so we almost forgot to introduce it."

At the same time, a short figure suddenly appeared in the shadow on the side of the dead tree. The whole person seemed to be wearing a vague black cloak, and he couldn't even see his face and clothes clearly. The man just nodded slightly to everyone, and then shrank into the shadow and disappeared out of thin air, missing.

Frave continued to explain: "At any time, under any circumstances, a qualified assassin should try to keep himself in a hidden state. I hope you understand."

"This is normal. This is completely understandable. If we were to do this, we would do it. I just hope that everyone would try to be open and honest to avoid hurting their own people in some cases." Qin Zhuyu showed a spring breeze-like smile and nodded gently. It is human nature to keep necessary vigilance towards strangers, and she will not be too serious with the other party. Just like Wang Zongchao must have discovered the existence of the assassin earlier than her, but he was too lazy to say anything.

However, the druid girl Winchi seemed to be relatively simple and did not notice the wariness of both parties. She just expressed her amazement and envy with utter utterance: "Sister is so amazing. Even my 'wild perception' often cannot grasp the existence of Sister Anya. Is this a kind of reconnaissance magic that hides magic fluctuations?"

The female druid is quite tall, her toned ketone body has no trace of fat, and her smooth muscle lines are full of the power of a leopard legs. However, she doesn't look very old, probably only sixteen or seventeen years old. Although her whole body is covered with beasts and plant totems, she does not exude a decadent and stubborn atmosphere like some tattoos that are non-mainstream. Instead, she has a unique sense of frankness, clearness and wildness. Her eyes are filled with innocent curiosity similar to the eyes of a reindeer, but also wild.

"Haha, it is more like a state, a philosophy, than a person who is magic or ability. People in our hometown generally call it "harmony between man and nature"..."

"That is, worship nature, understand the true meaning of nature, sincerely unite yourself with the wilderness jungle, and guide the power of the father of the oak to the depths of our body and mind? Isn't this the philosophy of our druids? Could it be that sister, you are also a druid?"

To a certain extent, China's unity of man and nature does have similarities with the Druid's concept. Using this, Qin Zhuiyu grasped a breakthrough point for communication and understanding between the two parties, and while easing the atmosphere between the two parties, he found an opportunity to learn from each other what his team might be able to use.

On the other hand, Fravi, the team leader, also began to warn Zhongzhou team and others: "Although I know that you are very strong, you may encounter unexpected dangers anytime you wander in the wilderness. Even if each of you has the strength of the master level, countless monsters like a tide are still enough to subdue you. On this cursed land, the only thing that can provide you with security is Luo Ge Camp..."

Although he has not completely put aside his guard against Zhongzhou team and others, Fravi has already gained a good understanding of their powerful and mysterious power and has proposed to recruit them with the trend. After all, when humans are at a disadvantage, the possibility of condensing more power will be more likely to reverse the situation.

Going to Luoge Camp was originally a task requirement for the main god, so Zheng Zha naturally had no objection to this. Just when he was about to agree, Chu Xuan suddenly asked: "It sounds like your Luoge Camp can only barely protect yourself at present. If you can't defeat the monster, the difference is that you die early and late. Do you have no effective countermeasures?"

"At present, we are not strong enough to protect ourselves, but it does not mean that we will do this in the future!" Fravey retorted with an annoyance, "Now, adventurers come to support us through teleportation arrays or trekking on foot every day. Moreover, the Northern Empire Westma will definitely not sit idly by and watch this land completely become a territory of hell. The most powerful Paladin of Westma, the continent, will definitely send troops to rescue in the near future, crushing all the evil monsters!"

In fact, in the dark game, the chivalrous Paladins are from the Westma Paladin. Compared with the adventurers of the straits and raids, the established Paladins are the backbone of humans' fight against the monsters of hell. It is worth mentioning that the Westma Paladins does not belong to the Church of Light - Sakalam. As early as hundreds of years ago, they had objections to the overly fanatical and bloody means used by Sakalam to eliminate the "unbelievers", so they left Sakalam and established a country in the Westma region. The war against the Westma Empire not long ago by King Leorik, who was still loyal to Sakalam, not long ago was somewhat similar to the fundamentalists' conquest of Protestants. It was precisely because of the division and killing of the light forces that the evil forces had an opportunity to take advantage of.

Although Frave was still full of confidence that the light would definitely defeat the darkness, the Zhongzhou team and others were not happy when they heard this, but instead felt a sense of being cheated when they suddenly realized.

"Since that's the case..." Chu Xuan continued to ask calmly, "So have you ever considered leaving this land, at least escorting ordinary civilians who are not combat-capable of leaving?"

Frave shook his head, "It's impossible. Now this half-stolen land can only be entered but not left..."

According to Fravey's explanation, "fall" refers to the process of a certain human area being eroded and attracted by the power of the lower realm and being pulled into hell and falling into hell. It is a part of hell. The entire process needs to meet two basic conditions: one is that the power of hell is strong enough; the other is that the creatures on this land have been completely corrupted and degenerated.

The monsters of the lord level have their own territory in hell. After obtaining enough sacrifices, they can project their territory on earth. Now the "blood wasteland" in front of them is actually formed by the overlap of the hell scenes with the human world. In addition, there are also "evil caves", "cold land", "bone buried land", "dark forest" and other hell projections. Almost every projection means a hell lord descending to the human world. The combined force of the hell lord and a certain hell demon king will lead it, and it is possible to forcibly tear a certain area from the human world and pull it to hell. Due to the serious imbalance caused by this vacant area, there will definitely be a series of disasters such as severe earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis in the surrounding areas, and even the surface of the mainland will be seriously deformed.

During this process, due to the "tearing" and "sinking" caused by the movement of space to the lower tier, a chaotic space storm filled with negative energy will begin to cover the edge of this area, thus forming a semi-closed state isolated from the outside world. At this time, adventurers with certain strength can still enter this area, but people inside the area cannot get out no matter what, whether it is hiking, flying, teleportation, etc. This situation is a bit like sinking into a deep pit on the flat ground, so it is easy for you to jump into the deep pit, but it is difficult to climb out of the deep pit.

However, the entire "fall" process will last at least several months or even years, and the resistance of the creatures in this land will further extend this process. In addition, other human forces and adventurers around to avoid harming the fish in the pond will definitely fight to save them, so there is no possibility of success in most cases. After all, this land is not an unknown desolate corner, but a prosperous group with a radius of thousands of miles and a key trade place in the Western continent. As long as you stick to it, the adventurers who come from all over the world in the future will be enough to submerge the monsters of hell.

After learning about the "good situation" in the future, Chu Xuan immediately expressed his willingness to join Luo Ge Camp. Both sides began to clean the battlefield and prepare to go on the road.

Since Zheng Zha killed six or seven hundred demons at once, there are now hundreds of spoils scattered all over the ground, including swords, guns, swords, axes, armor, leather boots, gloves and even rings, and there are many gold coins among them. All of this depends on the demons' good appetite for everything to swallow. In addition, there are seven gems with bright red color.

According to the adventurer, after the monster is killed, its magic essence has a certain probability that it will condense into various magical gems. The attributes of the gems depend on the attributes of the monster during its lifetime. For example, the Destroyed Demon is a fire-attribute monster, so the condensed one is usually ruby. The ruby ​​is inlaid on the weapon, the armor has blessings, strengthening fire damage and defending fire damage. For example, the longbow used by the female archer is inlaid with a ruby. The gems are divided into five levels: "shatter", "cracking", "normal", "flawless" and "perfect". After all, the Destroyed Demon in front of you are all low-level monsters, so six of the seven gems are just "breaking", and one is "cracking".

Due to previous accidents, the Zhongzhou team and others left a lot of gods when collecting spoils. In fact, they hoped to have a few more "flying scimitars" for research, but unfortunately they did not encounter another one. However, these collected enchanted weapons were basically eroded by the demon's stomach juice, and they could not see the magic patterns engraved on the surface. They had to wait until they returned to the camp to find the alchemist to identify and repair them before they could be used.

It is also worth mentioning that not all the Hell monsters run naked. Many of the high-level monsters have their own equipment, just like the Desolate Magician has their own staff. The equipment of the King of Blood is also high-end. The armor, tomahawk, and flails are mixed with pure gold. The flails are also attached with "milling strike" effects. The tomahawk is also attached with two curses of "breaking wounds" and "blocking self-healing". However, a small part of the Tomahawk and Tiger Soul collided head-on and collapsed. These two weapons, the two barbarians in the Adventurer Squad, - Reno and Hawks, were quite jealous, but unfortunately their power cannot be used. At least they must be elite-level power-type barbarians to use them freely.

Although in the propaganda, hell monsters are all a group of monsters that only know how to destroy and are unreasonable. In fact, hell also has craftsmen who can make weapons, magic equipment, and traps, and their skills are even above humans. After all, before the birth of human beings, hell and heaven had experienced tens of thousands of years of repeated battles and battles, and had already developed their own set of advanced military crafts. Most of the magic and alchemy of human beings are still learned from hell, and many weapons were originally produced by hell.

It is precisely because killing monsters can bring benefits that many monsters often appear wherever there are monsters, and wherever there will be many human adventurers gather like vultures that have found rotten corpses. This is often not just for survival and justice, but more importantly for profit. Human civilization continues to grow and grow in the struggle against hell in this strange way.

Before going on the road, the Zhongzhou team distributed a "broken"-level ruby ​​and 20% of the weapons and equipment to the scout team as their "help" and a thank-you gift for leading the way. This generous behavior really added a lot of favor to the other party.

As Chu Xuan expected, these adventurers all carried space equipment made of demon's stomach bags as the main material. Although the storage space of these space equipment was very limited, only about half a cubic meter, it was enough for each of them to carry the supply that could originally be loaded by a cart and go deep into the enemy's back, and collect various useful materials and equipment from the killed monsters.
