Chapter 221 The flag-planting battle in the underworld area
The dim Mingsha area was somewhat illuminated by the gap connecting the outskirts of the central city.
After 145 human extraordinary people jumped in, the gap closed and the world turned into darkness again.
Everyone turned on their strong flashlights one after another, lighting up beams of light.
This tactical flashlight can illuminate the ground 500 meters away and has very good performance.
The flashlights had enough power to keep them on until the end of the game.
Cheng Shaofeng did not turn on the flashlight because he found that even in the extremely dark Mingsha area, there was a trace of bright light reflected. If he got used to it for a while, he should be able to barely see.
After all, Cheng Dafu's body contains an energy body called Shadow Guard, which makes it easier to see darkness clearly than a human body.
Let's put it this way, in the eyes of the shadow guard, the night outside is not much different from the day.
Once you become familiar with the darkness, it will be easier to discover the dangers hidden in the darkness.
Cheng Shaofeng's nano-treasure-hunting robot has already moved. Others can't see it at all, but each energy body is marked by the treasure-hunting robot.
There are a lot of low-level energy bodies nearby!
Cheng Shaofeng also noticed that several people like him did not turn on the tactical flashlight immediately. He didn't know what they were thinking about.
Everyone observed for a moment, and then took action on their own.
Xiao Yan 1: "It is rare to enter such a magical place. There must be an opportunity for me. I will take the first step and achieve level 10 in the future before I can have a drink with you all!"
Xiao Yan 2: "The son of my dignified city lord was actually annulled by the people in the central city. I can only say that thirty years to Hedong and thirty years to Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty!"
Long Aotian 1: "What about Kumba's realm of evil spirits? Below the second level, I am invincible, and above the second level, I leapfrog! You can now call someone to take you back."
Long Aotian 2: "Haha~ I have never been afraid of anyone faster than planting a flag. My wife said that she has never seen a man faster than me. Do you understand what lightning is?"
Swish swish swish~
Several Xiao Yan and Long Aotian each used their own methods to enter the darkness, their figures full of majesty and arrogance.
As if he were the protagonist between heaven and earth.
Seeing this situation, Han Li 1, 2, 3 and others frowned and retreated behind everyone.
A few people like Cheng Dafu who didn't look so outstanding curled their lips.
"Look at how fast people are doing this. It's estimated that they will be full of flags soon. I'm just here to make up the numbers. Why don't any of the big brothers dislike it and we can form a team together? I don't ask for rankings. I am safe and sound and can win the participation prize.
That’s fine.”
"You are a member of the same group! I was also forced to come here by the city lord. There are no outstanding figures in our generation. I am a person in the middle stage of the first-order evolution who was sent here. If I hadn't been reluctant to part with the participation prize, I would have called for rescue now."
"No, no! Have you ever heard that it's hard for two fists to beat four hands? Although they are very strong, let's unite to complete the task. We all have abilities, and we may not be slower than them. When the time comes, let's take the top few
Let’s share the rewards together. Although it’s not much for each person, it’s still better than just taking the participation prize! I have a plan.”
"That makes sense. Brother, please be careful!"
Soon, these people all took action individually.
It can be roughly divided into lone wolf, team, and silver coins.
"Brother, I see you are quite old. You haven't broken through to the second level yet, so your talent must be about the same as ours. Why don't we come together?"
A team that didn't have enough people grabbed Cheng Shaofeng.
"Uh, no need. I'll just take a look and call for support and return after a while. It doesn't matter whether I want the participation prize or not. This looks quite scary. Life is important."
"Haha~" Xie Long, the inviter, smiled disdainfully, shook his head and ignored Cheng Shaofeng.
Perhaps in his opinion, Cheng Shaofeng is a fool who has no strength and cannot clearly see the situation.
One of them, a young female supernormal person, asked tentatively: "Uncle, come to our place. There are so many people to take care of you. Otherwise, if you encounter trouble and it's too late to ask for help, just come, come on, we don't dislike you."
Cheng Shaofeng touched Cheng Dafu's face: "Uncle? Is that an exaggeration? I'm only in my early 30s."
Female Supernaturalist: "Ah, I'm just 18, you're a round older than me~"
"Ah this!"
Cheng Shaofeng was speechless.
When he first pinched this person's face, he made it look inconspicuous, a slightly stout middle-aged man.
However, these words made Cheng Shaofeng have a good impression of this girl. It is rare to see people in the wasteland who care about other people's lives.
Of course, this had nothing to do with the two large milky-white obstacles that caused her to lower her head and unable to see her feet.
If I could give her an online name, it would be Milky White Daxuezi.
"No, no, I'm used to it by myself."
Several other people in the team pulled her away after hearing this.
"Okay, Susu, you are so confident that you don't want to team up with us, can't you tell? It would be disrespectful to bother us any more. What should I do if I delay my victory?"
"Hahaha!"
The other few burst into laughter, as if this would make them feel more comfortable after being rejected.
Cheng Shaofeng ignored them.
Compared with the truly strong men who left earlier, the people in these teams were not very strong and had little confidence in themselves. Cheng Shaofeng actually didn't think highly of them.
"Huh? Coming?"
He quickly left where he was just now.
Because with the help of the nano treasure-hunting robot, he 'saw' a group of energy bodies rushing towards the place where they entered.
Although the energy is not too strong, there are too many of them, just like ants that have found food.
Cheng Shaofeng left quickly. The ground was filled with barren and hard rocks, with some unknown black plants popping up. As he walked, he would encounter black walls, which were extremely hard, and even he could not easily break them.
"strange terrain"
At this time, he happened to see three small energy bodies next to him.
This is the smallest number he has ever sensed in this world, usually there are dozens or hundreds of torrents.
He vaguely heard the screams of some unfortunate contestants after being surrounded by a large number of monsters.
In the dark space between heaven and earth, the bright flashlight became the guiding stone for the monsters, telling them that they were in the same direction.
Cheng Shaofeng shook his head: "People who keep turning on tactical flashlights are somewhat stupid."
Of course, there were also some strong men who fought their way out of the pile of monsters, quickly passing by and heading to another place.
At least under the exploration of Cheng Shaofeng's nano treasure-hunting robot, the three Xiao Yan, four Long Aotian, and five Han Li he was optimistic about were all alive and well. These monsters were vulnerable to them.
The treasure-hunting robot can be placed on other people in advance, and it can transmit perceptions not far from itself. With this thing, Cheng Shaofeng here is like opening his eyes.
Cheng Shaofeng took the opportunity to touch the back of the three small energy bodies in front and saw the appearance of the monster at close range.
At this sight, Cheng Shaofeng took a deep breath.
"That's what it is."
"Void Demon!"
A relatively short humanoid red horned monster, with all the muscles of its body exposed, but there is no content inappropriate for children.
"I'm just saying it's not such a coincidence. They're both called Hades, which are the same as the Chaos Cultist summons we solved before. So, this is probably the world that got into the black hole inexplicably. Oh, no wonder each of us ate it before entering.
There is something called a 'disposable oxygen generator'. It seems that the air here cannot be breathed, so it needs to bring its own oxygen."
This miniature device is about the size of a vibrating egg. Once swallowed, it can provide humans with a continuous supply of oxygen for one day. After one day, it will automatically degrade and be excreted from the body.
It is a daily necessity for some extraordinary people who often go to the bottom of the sea.
Cheng Shaofeng had to put in a lot of effort to swallow this thing, and his face turned red, but he saw many female supernatural beings swallowed it easily, and he didn't know why.
In addition to the 'disposable oxygen concentrator', each of them carries a combat backpack issued by the organizer, including a tactical flashlight, compressed food, water, a crystal of the same attribute with 500 units of energy, a rescue call device, and 49
Small flag.
They just want to find 49 flag-planting points in this dim Mingsha area. After planting them all, the gap connecting the two places will open again to end the game.
Of course, if no one can fill it up, the gap will be reopened where they entered after one day, and the contestants can return here and leave.
This is what the organizers told them.
Cheng Shaofeng took out his small pistol that was easy to carry and used 3 rounds of [explosive ammunition] to kill 3 void demons instantly.
[Cheng Dafu kills the ‘Void Demon’, experience +20]*3
Three messages came from the smart watch, and Cheng Shaofeng was even more certain that they were the summons that players often killed.
He himself had killed many of these things by sniping from the observation tower before.
Unfortunately, Cheng Dafu's body was too far away from the battlefield and could not pick up the breath of life, so he was unable to gain experience. A lot of experience was gained after the close combat.
The movement here attracted a lot of evil monsters.
Some meat ball-like things rushed over in groups, making a "rustling" sound on the ground.
This is a lower level summon than the Void Demon.
None of the chaos priests seemed to summon this thing, so Cheng Shaofeng didn't get the skill seal to summon it.
"Since we want to have a group fight, let's do it!"
"Skeleton!"
Cheng Dafu took out his staff and waved it lightly. The bodies of the three void demons next to him began to twist and deform, and three skeletons emerged from them.
Skeleton Warlord, Skeleton Mage, Skeleton Archer.
1 near and 2 far, golden combination.
"Not bad, it looks like you have good luck today."
Some players have reached the full level of [Skeleton Resurrection] and summoned three of the most common melee 'skeleton warriors' as soon as they raised their hands. They were so uncomfortable that they could only wait 18 minutes before they could be summoned again.
"Blight Demon!"
Cheng Dafu waved his hand again, cracks appeared on the hard ground, and an unknown filthy object swept over the corpses of three void demons and various surrounding objects to form a stitch monster covered in green poisonous mist.
"Death Armor!"
Shadow Guard releases his unique halo skill from his body, covering all four summons with a thick layer of armor.
If you look closely, you can see that the three skeletons summoned by Cheng Dafu themselves also have thick physical armor.
It is the extended skill of [Skeleton Resurrection] [Crypto Will].
Increases vitality damage, elemental damage, armor, and vitality resistance.
A comprehensive enhancement to the skeleton.
Let the strength of the skeleton, which is already the main force, be raised to a higher level, so that it will not be outcompeted by other summons in the future.
Of course, the premise is that you are willing to invest another 12 skill points for the skeleton and learn [Tomb Will] to the full level.
Cheng Dafu is now level 13. Counting the additional 5 skill points given when he advanced to level 10, he has gained a total of 41 skill points.
Currently I have only learned Necromancer.
Necromancer Specialization Gauge: 15
[Skeleton Resurrection]: Level 16
[Tomb Will]: Level 1
[Summon Disease Demon]: Level 9
His current point addition is to first increase the advanced summoning skill Plague Demon, which can only be learned with 15 specializations, to the full level, and then go back and use [Tomb Will] to strengthen the skeleton.
Only in this way can combat effectiveness be maximized.
After all, the 'Disease Demon' is huge in size, can lead people to charge, and emit large amounts of poisonous mist around it. It is Cheng Dafu's best human shield.
Players all call this thing: Big Fat Man.
Some people also call it "abomination".
Once the shadow guard wants to fight with all his strength, he must break away from the shackles of his body. When the time comes, he will hide Cheng Dafu's body in the belly of the disease demon, lest the battle is over and Cheng Dafu has died in the melee.
Each level of the Necromancer Specialization Gauge increases by 1 strength, 0.5 agility, and 1 intelligence. Cheng Dafu's full strength increase, coupled with the top-notch equipment he just changed, is still very powerful.
Huhuhu~
Seeing a large number of flesh-ball void demons appearing in front of them, the big fat man charged directly towards them.
The poisonous mist scattered all over his body, but Cheng Dafu, who had summoned it, would not be affected in any way while standing in the poisonous mist. This energy was originally given by him, so there was no reason to harm the owner.
The big fat man has two giant claws, which are his main attack weapons.
Snapped!
With one slap, two meatballs flew away.
Snapped!
Another slap sent two meatballs flying away.
At this time, about 10 flexible meatballs jumped on it and started biting its body.
In front of Cheng Shaofeng, damage values emerged from the disease demon one after another.
Physics + Chaos.
Too many of these little things can kill an elephant.
The big fat man roared angrily, and the ribs in the middle of his belly opened a large hole, spraying out a large amount of acidic poisonous mist.
Puff puff puff~
After the fleshy ball on its body came into contact with the poisonous mist, it struggled and screamed, and poisonous injuries appeared on its body. Then it turned into puddles of pus and fell to the ground. Green pus splashed out and was corroded.
Thick smoke behind.
[Cheng Dafu kills the void demon larvae, experience +12]*N.
【Deadly poisonous fog】!
"Big Fatty's large-area killing skills are easy to use, so you don't have to worry about being attacked."
This wave also greatly increased Cheng Dafu's experience.
"Tsk tsk~ If this can open a channel and allow players to farm this thing, wouldn't the density of monsters be so satisfying?"
"It's a pity that so many body parts cannot be collected and brought back to the base. It's a waste."
Cheng Dafu jumped on the big fat man's shoulders and looked for the flag-planting spot mentioned by the organizer.
Many void demons and hatchlings were eliminated on the way, all done by Big Fatty and Skeleton. Neither Cheng Dafu nor Shadow Guard took action, they just turned on the halo and it was over.
"The strength of these creatures is not high. The highest level is just the first level. As long as the stronger first-level evolvers are not very unlucky, they should not die, right?"
There are several huge waves of monsters among them. As long as they are not surrounded, if you encounter dozens of them on the road, you are not going to kill them casually?
He shook his head, thinking that this competition must not be that simple.
"Huh!? That red light."
He saw a piece of stone glowing with a faint red light.
"This is what they call the mark!"
"Finally found the first one."
Cheng Shaofeng asked his summons to clean up the surrounding monsters, and then he came to the stone.
12 flags have been planted here.
The flag inside the tactical backpack began to tremble.
"It seems there are quite a few fast ones."
He planted a flag.
The mechanical hook ejected from the bottom of the flag and instantly penetrated the stone and embedded itself in the ground, with a faint light shining on it.
Cheng Shaofeng asked the skeleton to try to touch the flag planted by other contestants. Instantly, a powerful current surged out from the flag, knocking the skeleton warrior back.
"Sure enough, the flag has a defensive device to prevent it from being maliciously removed by other contestants."
After reading it, Cheng Shaofeng just wanted to leave and look for the next flag-planting spot.
Cheng Shaofeng could feel that the stone in front of him contained a lot of energy. He originally thought it was just a landmark placed specially by the organizer, but he did not expect that it was discovered to be a treasure.
"Number Zero, what does treasure mean? This is the first time I've heard a watch expressed like this."
After the air was silent for a full minute, Cheng Shaofeng realized that he was now in the shadow guard state and was in the body of No. 0.
"Switch."
Cheng Shaofeng sat up from the natural disaster base and repeated the question again.
No. 0: "Congratulations, master. The nano-treasure hunting robot can discover some items with special structures. They often have important functions. They are energy equipment, rare materials, high-quality crystals, etc., and they will all be called treasures."
No. 0: "It is recommended that you collect all items with treasure titles. It will be a good help to you."
"understood."
Switch again.
The shadow guard looked at an 'obsidian fragment' the size of a stone tablet in front of him and fell into thinking.
"First of all, this is a good thing. Secondly, no one is watching here. Finally, I should be able to resist leaving."
However, he had toothache again.
"One is okay, and it won't be a problem to put it in the big fat man's belly. But there are 48 flags behind, and you can't resist them all. And after resisting, is it considered a success in the challenge? The reward for first place is
There are 100,000 crystals and you can choose a technology product from Duoyu Academy, and the special prize can also directly join Duoyu Academy."
Cheng Shaofeng thought for a while and felt that it would be better to finish the game.
He observed this thing, and it seemed that it had been in this world for many years. It should not be taken away by anyone. At worst, he would find a way to let players enter this area to take it away in the future.
Currently, he is eager to visit Duoyu Academy.
The news he got from Xigou exceeded his expectations.
After marking this place on the map, Cheng Shaofeng continued to move forward.
After searching the surrounding area, he found 9 more flag-planting spots. Each spot had an 'obsidian fragment' standing upright, which made him itchy.
On the way, I also saw fellow contestants. Some saw that he looked unhappy, and some invited him to cooperate.
However, facing the pressure from the big fat man, these people did not dare to act rashly.
The group of people who first invited him met at the place where the 10th flag was planted, and were shocked by the power of the plague demon.
Tu Feiding: "This person's pet is so strong. I feel a huge pressure, as if it is a second-level creature. Damn it. I made a mistake."
Liu Mangshu: "No wonder he has to form a team with us. He has a trump card, haha~ But the person who shows his trump card now is not very smart. A big tree attracts the wind, and he will not live long."
Ji Yaoping: "You will understand when he is eliminated as a competitor by those truly strong men. Being too ostentatious is not a good thing."
Susu suddenly shouted loudly: "What are you talking about? You hypocrites, you try to win over others when they are weak. If you fail to win over others, you will ridicule them. You will feel sour when they are strong. You even curse them. I don't want to be with you people."
Team up!”
The shouting here attracted Cheng Shaofeng's attention.
The girl named Susu suddenly stamped her foot: "Let's break up!"
She ran towards Cheng Shaofeng: "Uncle, I have decided to give up those scum and form a team with you!"
Cheng Shaofeng blinked: "I didn't say I wanted you either."
Susu:(°ー°〃)
She looked at her slender figure and the white rabbit toffee protruding from her top, and said in disbelief: "Uncle? Are you okay? I broke up with them to protect you! You have the heart to let me face such darkness alone.
The world? People. People are very scared."
Cheng Shaofeng was stunned for a moment, curled his lips and said: "Who cares about your defense? What does it have to do with me how others like to evaluate me? You don't just want to get good grades with me just because you have some meat, do you?
?Who gave you the courage!"
"Bah! What a shame!"
Cheng Shaofeng rode the big fat man and left them without looking back.
Leaving messy Susu in the air, she seemed to be unable to figure out how such a talented female supernatural being could be ruthlessly rejected twice, even when she showed such an obvious tendency.
She chased after him and said tentatively: "Hey! Uncle! My special specialty is treatment. I can heal your injuries."
"Come up my good teammate!"
Susu:∑(O_O；)
This was the first time someone valued her milk volume rather than her milk volume.
