The blind monsters of the dark curtain further tightened the player's mage. Their gray-brown whip-like tentacles tightened little by little, sinking deeply into the mage's neck. There was a gurgling sound in the throats of those players, and they waved helplessly.
They tried to free the thing on their head, but the weak strength of the mage was far from being able to do this. The other players were still in a panic. The mage who was not attacked kept chanting wrong spells, and the priests seemed
I also forgot how to recite the prayer.
The panicked warrior kicked one of the mages who was lying on the ground. He fell to the ground due to his unsteady center of gravity. The sharp rock cut a large gash on his forehead, and he immediately let out the most terrifying scream.
The sound made the surrounding crowd become more noisy.
Gray bruise numbers kept popping up from the heads of the four mages. They slumped on the ground helplessly, seeing that the fire of life was about to be extinguished. Xiao Fen then raised his staff and whispered a brief but incomprehensible incantation: "
Sleep!" The light emitted from the black crystal staff was covered by darkness, but the powerful power of the arcane still affected those monsters. Their tight tentacles quickly relaxed and fell softly from the heads of the mages.
...and collapsed on the side like a ball of mud. Quan said, he looked at the mages through the darkness. Those people's faces were blue and there was a striking mark on their necks, but the angel stone was saved anyway.
. His eyes swept around again, and some players had prepared spells to dispel the darkness.
But the trouble did not end here. Almost at the same time that the darkness was dispersed, a dazzling bright light suddenly exploded from the front. The roar and impact waves also followed. The underground tunnel trembled, and most people were stunned.
After being knocked to the ground, they soon saw a raging flame burning in the direction of the cave.
The mage supported the black crystal staff on the ground and barely managed to avoid falling. He exchanged glances with Yun Na, who was holding on to the wall on the other side. The two nodded at the same time and ran in that direction. Shui Hao stumbled behind them.
.Only the goblin groaned and lay on the ground without getting up.
The three of them quickly passed through the panicked crowd, and the players' vicious curses and panicked shouts filled their ears from time to time. Xiao Fen was the first to arrive at the place where the explosion occurred, and he saw several seriously injured players lying on the ground rolling around.
There are still flames in some places on their bodies. A wall of fire burning with raging flames lies in front of the player, and the attacker has long disappeared.
As soon as Shui Hao arrived at the scene, he immediately took out his healing staff to treat the wounds of the wounded. Yun Na, who arrived last, only took a cursory look at the scene. She turned back and asked the injured guys: "Who is the attacker? NPC, other players, or monsters
?" Shutting down suddenly, he found that the person asking the question was actually an incredibly beautiful woman. He coughed slightly embarrassed: "It's a gray dwarf!" He turned around and looked at the Chinese website along the way, "How many people are there and what occupations are there?
?" he blurted out.
The player recalled for a moment: "Five, I saw a priest... and two others wearing robes. They should be mages or warlocks. I can't tell the other professions."
The mage turned his head and glanced across the fire wall. The cave seemed empty there, with nothing but jagged strange stone pillars. Xiao Fen frowned. In just a few days, he roughly learned about the two teams of players.
The mission is directed at an underground force - the Staff of Korgan, which is a force belonging to the gray dwarves. It is said to be related to demons, but everything is just a rumor.
According to the information Yun Na obtained from Qingling Rain, this task was commissioned by a mysterious organization half a month ago. Several well-known player guilds received the task at the same time - such as the Dark Leaves in Quiet Bay, Bloody
The Slayer, the Burning Banner of the Southern Peninsula, the Arcane Temple of Silent Lake, and the newly formed Spirit of the Horn after the War Horn of the North disbanded.
The mission once made Xiao Fen feel a little interesting. The members of the mysterious organization that the players said were responsible for negotiating with the guild suddenly wore a large black cloak covering their whole body. The sound was like metal friction, and the eyes under the cloak were flashing red. Some even said
They can kill an entire group of people with one action. Although the rumors are inevitably exaggerated, they are almost exactly the same as some of the guys in the mage's impression. In addition, the rumored relationship between Korgan's Staff and demons also allowed the mage to further confirm his identity.
infer.
Xiao Fen never thinks that he is a guy who repays evil with kindness. He believes that the demons must have their own reasons for asking the players to do this. To the extent possible, he does not mind disturbing the situation, of course, on the premise that his identity is not exposed.
"What does it mean? It's just a warning?" The mage touched his lips and felt that this possibility was very high. He then thought about it and thought that if those dark blind monsters appeared there not just by coincidence, the current situation would be
It's debatable. Does that mean that the dwarves of Korgan's Staff can control monsters? Xiao Fen shook his head, thinking that this inference was a bit ridiculous.
While he was thinking about the current situation, Gentle Wind and Light Rain followed a young human warrior over. They checked the scene with anxious expressions and breathed a sigh of relief after finding that there was no damage. This
At that time, the human warrior noticed the mage in black robes, and he showed a friendly smile: "My brother was treated by you, right? Thank you, my friend!" As he said that, he stretched out his strong hand to the mage.
Xiao Fen observed this human warrior, and he knew that he was the president of the guild where Gentle Wind belonged, and he was also the boyfriend of Qingling Rain. According to the side reflections of the guild members, this man was pretty good and treated people sincerely.
, although the management of the guild was obviously not very good. Jian touched the warrior's hand lightly, and then quickly took it back. Before he regarded the other party as a friend, he was not used to a warm handshake - in fact
He doesn't necessarily like shaking hands even with his friends.
Then he nodded to the embarrassed warrior: "Then that's it, now that you are here, we should leave!" After saying that, the mage glanced at Gentle Wind, waved his hand and took Yun Na back to where he came from.
However, he soon learned about the attack through some other members - no one was killed, and the most seriously injured were probably the four mages. They were unconscious for almost a whole day before they woke up.
Eating a cushion makes you wiser. Rookies always grow up through constant setbacks. After receiving the lesson, the players have become more at ease. At least they can realize that underground exploration is not equal to underground tourism, and the dangers are not just talked about.
. Unless you really regard Angel Stone as a worthless item.
The two guilds moved forward quietly in silence. They walked along the winding tunnel out of the stalactite area full of jagged and strange rocks, passed through the Alombas underground hills, and a huge underground forest - the Southern mushroom forest.
During this period, two large-scale battles occurred: the first was ambushed by roaming bugbears. The monsters' skillful cooperation in that battle made the players fully realize that they were not the only ones with intelligence; the other was in a pool of water.
A twelve-headed cold snake lizard was provoked nearby. It could be said to be the most brutal battle that players have experienced since entering the underground. Thirteen players died, and only four of them were successfully resurrected...
But the benefits of brutal battles are obvious. Players who suffered heavy casualties in the early stage quickly consciously established a set of disciplines. How to better detect the enemy and effectively protect their lives is what they need to consider. And this set of rules
Discipline is based on this consideration. At the same time, they quickly discovered that ensuring the lives of their teammates is also ensuring their own survival rate.
Of course, the underground is not without fun. In addition to the exciting battles and the heart-pounding feeling of encountering unknown dangers, there are also many beautiful and rare scenery here, such as the endless mushroom forests, which are connected to each other.
The huge mushrooms can be said to be something players have never seen before; there is also the strange crystal mining area, and the glorious scenery has left a deep impression on players. In addition, Xiao Fen noticed that goblins often seemed to disappear inexplicably. In fact, his
The situation became a little abnormal from the beginning. This kind of abnormality is not what the mage is happy to see - but it can be seen that Yun Na does not seem to be very worried about it.
On the twelfth day, when the ranger leading the guild raised the torch in his hand high, and the dim orange light illuminated a deep abyss in front of him, this group of players entered the depths of the earth - Kasa,
The stratigraphic fracture zone. The power of Korgan's Staff has become quite stable here. The gray dwarves have established many strong outposts here. At the same time, this is also the habitat of many dangerous creatures, but it is said that the Dark Land is the most impressive.
One of the most fearful areas. Our work is coming!" The leading ranger raised his hood and shouted behind him.
The rough voice spread far back along the tunnel. Guild Leader of the Horn Spirit far behind made a gesture, and more than a dozen war craftsmen ran over from that direction. They measured for a while next to the cliff, and each other
After exchanging opinions, one of them turned back and said: "The distance is too far, we have to build a support point. We need people to protect it!" The bridge has a distance limit. It can only extend 1oo feet in one direction at a time, but these craftsmen can use it
There are at most three support points to extend the length. The so-called support points form a platform supported by the bridge pillars at the end of the simple bridge. This platform allows craftsmen to continue to use skills on it to extend the length of the bridge.
The players standing near the cliff showed hesitation in their eyes. They knew that the area of the support point was not large. In such a small area, not to mention protecting others, even their own life safety could not be guaranteed. "Soft Wind"
He walked up from behind, holding a long bow, and smiled at several professional life players. Xiao Fen raised his eyelids and looked at this guy, secretly shook his head, and thought to himself, what are you going to do at this time?
The war craftsmen began to build the bridge. They quickly prepared the support points, and then carefully ran to the platform at the far end of the bridge to start the second step. Gentle Wind followed with two rangers and a warrior with a tower shield.
After passing by, a group of players gathered around the edge of the cliff and watched them nervously.
Several professional life players were tinkering with their hands quickly, and flashes of various skills continued to appear around their bodies. About halfway through the entire project, a bowstring sounded in the distance, and one of the war craftsmen was seen covering his neck.
Falling into the abyss wailing.
The arrow was shot from the other side of the abyss. Two big men holding crossbows could be faintly seen there. They were hiding behind a rock shelter. Only half of their heads were exposed. The warrior on the player's side carrying the tower shield immediately reacted.
Coming over, he stood in front of a war craftsman, and the second and third shot banged onto the huge shield. The sharp arrows easily penetrated the thin iron sheet and were nailed to the thick wooden board.
The players on the abyss side let out an exclamation. There were gasps. Xiao Fen frowned, his lips moved, and a faint yellow light immediately appeared around his body. But no one noticed the man next to him.
The black-robed mage had already taken off, and of course no one noticed that his figure suddenly disappeared into the cave after a flash of blue light. Xia shouted, and he loudly reminded the people around him.
Gentle Wind raised his eyebrows. He stretched out his arms and tightened the bowstring, aiming at that position. The blurry shadows in the darkness made him somewhat unsure of the opponent's exact position - the elf ranger let go of his hand based on feeling. Where the bowstring sounded, the person on the opposite side
A big man covered his head and fell down. The rangers from the union looked at Gentle Wind with admiration. The performance of this elf ranger in the past few days has earned him the respect of all player rangers.
Gentle Wind squeezed the elf bow with some excitement. She said she was lucky in her heart. The opponent was at least 90% covered. At such a long distance and in dim light, it was indeed luck to be able to hit the opponent.
But what he didn't expect was that his attack would only result in a more violent counterattack, with more than a dozen arrows screaming from that direction. Compared to the narrow platform, these arrows were so dense that it was almost impossible to dodge...
There were a few muffled sounds, and several gorgeous blood flowers bloomed on several players. Two war craftsmen rolled to the ground without saying a word, and the other fell into the abyss like a stone. The gentle wind left.
He was shot with an arrow in his belly. But compared to the other two companions who were almost shot as hedgehogs, he was lucky.
The only person who was not injured in this round of attacks was probably the warrior holding the tower shield high. He shrank his head behind the huge shield, like a turtle.
The attack is extremely threatening, but even so, the war craftsmen still dare not retreat, because they know that once the skill is ended, all previous efforts will be wasted, which means starting over and facing a more dangerous situation. Sora!" Presidents of the two unions
The order was finally given. The seven rangers crouched and rushed towards the central platform. But just as they were halfway there, a fireball suddenly roared and flew over from the other end of the abyss... With big eyes, they tried to retreat, but could not push.
The result of the squeeze was that the two players screamed and fell into the abyss. They swept around and the players on the other side of the abyss who had seen the scene opened their mouths wide. They seemed to want to scream, but there was no sound.
Come out. "What the hell!" the leader of the Horn Spirit shouted heartbrokenly. The seven rangers who went out this time were the elites of his guild.
The smoke from the fireball dispersed. A large gap appeared on the bridge, and the traces of the rangers had completely disappeared... Players in the hemisphere grabbed their heads and shouted loudly in their native language.
At the same time, the floating mages were also blocked. Black feather arrows rushed towards them like ghosts. Those arrows were so powerful that the protective arrows of the mages were so vulnerable in front of these feather arrows. The black arrows were so powerful that they were vulnerable to them.
The arrows directly penetrated the green magic protective layer and penetrated into the thin bodies of the mages. In a moment, three mages fell into the darkness under the abyss, and their screams echoed in the vast space.
The second fireball exploded in the center of the platform. Gentle Wind was almost blown away until only his bloody skin was left. He coughed and downed a bottle of potion to treat serious injuries and raised his head while cursing. At this time, there were less than four wars left in front of him.
Craftsman. "Damn it!" The elf ranger raised his long bow. He saw a dwarf in gray robes standing in the distance, at the other end of the abyss. The spirit roared and rushed over, but was blocked by the wind wall in front of the dwarf mage.
It blew to the side and hit the wall with a loud thud.
The flame on the gray dwarf's hand lit up again, it was the third fireball... Rain of Spirits anxiously squeezed out half of the body from the player, her eyes full of fear. The girl didn't know where the courage came from.
, she raised her staff to bless herself with flying skills, then floated and flew towards the center of the bridge. An equally anxious voice suddenly screamed and pointed towards the sky above the abyss——
There, a figure suddenly appeared. It was a mage wearing a black robe with purple stripes. He held his head high and held a beautiful black crystal staff in his pale and slender hand. The strange star cloak followed the ground.
The wind of the world was blowing gently, and the magical power gathered around the mage little by little... He stretched out his finger, and the flame on the hand of the gray dwarf caster immediately disappeared without a trace...
The black-robed mage shook his neck and revealed a mysterious smile.
