223 'Premise'

"But the risk of entering this time will be very high! Are you sure you want to go in?"

Nightmare difficulty does not refer to upgrading the blood volume of monsters and strengthening attribute roll abilities in a general sense, but refers to the fact that the current area has raised several challenge levels for some reason.

Just like the Fairy Wilderness and the Shadowfell Underworld will gradually merge with Ashenrant after the gods are completely disconnected, the difficulty of traveling on the continent will increase by five challenge levels out of thin air.

This is why it was said earlier that at that time, in most areas of Asenland, even the wilderness within five kilometers outside the city was extremely dangerous, and you would have to start over again if you were not careful. New players at that time were basically

Spend your time on missions in the sewers and streets of the city.

In "Saint", the difficulty of the dungeon changes with dynamic changes. For example, if you plan to loot a dragon's nest, normally, except for the blue dragon that lives in groups, the normal configuration of most dragon's nests is one dragon plus

It's a mess, with an average of about 5 attributes lower than the dragon challenge level. If you're not lucky, it may even come with a few baby dragons. This is a normal dungeon challenge configuration. If it's hard mode, you may end up in the lair.

In the center, I saw two giant dragons mating, or visiting. As for the nightmare difficulty, it was probably Tom giving a concert, or the eyes of the gods came to this lair. Your rash intrusion angered the gods, and the nightmare was that

level.

"Could it be that Quetzalcoatl has awakened? Has his level been raised now?"

Woody secretly speculated in his heart that Woody actually didn't know much about this demigod.

After all, he didn’t believe in it, and he had no intention of targeting this demigod. Most players’ understanding of her was limited to her praise in the Lost Temple copy. Already on the eve of the Year of Darkness, the Lost Temple was bulldozed by players.

Not long after, she appeared in the Golden River Valley and listed the Jingsong Forest as a forbidden area. The hidden missions there had not yet been discovered by many players, and the Corrupted Mother Tree descended on this barren plane with a long comet trail.

However, judging from the living sacrifices and curses, this god is definitely not easy to deal with. Although some of them are made by her sacrifices and believers, whether it is to revive the god or steal her authority, this method

In the plane of Terra, there is no doubt that you will be classified into the lawful evil camp.

"High risk?"

Cecil looked at Woody's serious face and knew that he was not kidding her. She chewed the word in her mouth and asked.

"How high?"

"There will probably be spellcasters of the same level as you inside."

Woody added thoughtfully.

"A spellcaster who can cast eighth-level spells?"

Cecil was startled and subconsciously compared himself.

"To be precise, he is a priest who uses divine power."

Woody corrected.

"Maybe it will be higher, but it shouldn't be higher than Legend."

I don't know when, the setting sun has hidden under the mountains, leaving only a trace of afterglow in the sky reflecting on the edge of the sky. Darkness and shadows return to the forest, which also makes the red runes flashing on the granite arch match.

Woody's words are extremely harsh and terrifying.

Everyone was silent, and the old ranger Caverman, who was once the king of advanced hunting and had 11 professional levels, made some suggestions.

"Since Brother Woody said there is a problem, shall we enter later?"

Cecil didn't respond, seeming to be thinking about something, but Donnie asked Woody in his mind why he knew so clearly.

Woody's answer was also flawless, as he had heard it from others.

Even if this sentence is judged by detecting lies, it is true. After all, he did understand how terrible the Lost Temple in Nightmare Difficulty is from the tragic experience told by an unknown player on the forum.

At this time, the spirit of nature asked Woody.

"Do you know of any other ways of getting in?"

Obviously, what he cares more about than the danger is how Woody knows the hidden plane of the Jingsong Forest and how to enter it.

Woody once again explained with the same reason, and the spirit of nature also believed this statement. After all, River Valley City did not exist for a long time, and the ruins in Jingsong Forest are said to have a history of nearly a thousand years. Asenland has other

It is possible that people know this place.

"Then how to enter? If you just close the fog, the risk should not be particularly great. Cohen has also met other people inside, and their attitudes towards Cohen are not as bad as you said."

As for the dangers Woody mentioned, as someone who has personally been to that place from Cohen's first-person perspective, Spirit of Nature feels that he is a bit alarmist.

"I still maintain my own opinion."

Woody was fully alert to any dangerous behavior, and did not believe that there was really no danger because of the words of the spirit of nature. Otherwise, the blood of the predecessors would have been shed in vain.

"Then what do you think?"

Cecil suddenly looked at Woody.

"Do you plan to enter now, or wait until the so-called risks subside and return to normal?"

The young mage's eyes were as still as water at the moment, making it impossible to see what she was thinking in her heart.

"If I go in alone, I'm sure I'll escape unscathed."

Woody's assertion is not out of arrogance, but because the "Saint" guide only has one life. Sometimes what most players pursue is not infinite power, but how to survive in dangerous adventures. Although

Woody's current professional level is not high, but his original purpose of coming to the Lost Temple was just to use the ascension ceremony to increase his soul limit, lay a solid foundation for the next body-forging soul, and let the advanced disaster

The speed of the blade can be increased a little bit.

The Lost Temple can be accessed or not. After all, the benefits are high, but the risks are also high.

He hasn't lived enough in Asenland yet, and he still wants to visit other dimensions. At least in this life, he wants to go further.

After Woody spoke, everyone fell silent.

Even Cecil looked at Woody with a very complicated look. If she hadn't been together for so long, someone else would have laughed at her if she had said such a thing. After all, Woody's current

His strength seems to be at the bottom of the team. The main reason why Cecil respects him is because of his versatile knowledge. On the contrary, he is favored by his teacher, the leader of the Thousand Towers Society, and the Winter Queen of the North.

Secondly, strength really doesn't rank high.

And at this time, it was this person who was not strong enough who actually said words that would hold them back in front of everyone. Who wouldn't be angry?

Woody also noticed the strange atmosphere in the air and knew that they might have misunderstood, so he explained helplessly.

"I can't guarantee your safety if there are too many people. If I'm alone, I can sneak in and they won't be able to find me."

Woody's current stealth skill points are 87 points. Combined with the 10-point bonus from Nature Walker, the 5-point bonus from Sigil Shadow Protection, and the +1 skill level from the favor "Outstanding", his stealth points can be directly increased to 150 points.

(Expert) level, no matter what level of dungeon it is, as long as you don't actively touch the real guards, observe invisible creatures, and are next to buildings, you don't have to worry about safety issues at all.

Listening to Woody's explanation, Cecil didn't know whether to be angry or laughing now, she said helplessly.

"But I also know how to invisibility. At this point, even the most brilliant thief can't become invisible out of thin air."

Obviously, she was quite dissatisfied with what Woody said about sneaking in, and emphasized the importance of not forgetting the caster.

But how could Woody forget Cecil's power as a high-level mage? He just heard him reply speechlessly again.

"Didn't I tell you that there is a dead magic area inside. If you use magic rashly, are you sure you can bear the consequences?"

When he heard this, Cecil's face suddenly froze.

Oops!

I have forgotten this matter, so if I say this, what he said does make some sense.

But Cecil still didn't give up, she replied.

"Then it's impossible for the entire half of the plane to be a dead magic zone. Otherwise, the plane would have withered long ago. Without the nourishment of magic, how could the plane grow and spread."

"Indeed."

Woody did not refute Cecil's words, but explained.

"But when you release a spell, it will be perceived by others. How strong is the detection of magic power in places where dead magic areas exist? Haven't you tried it during the mage training?"

Woody remembered that there would be a dead magic area in Thousand Towers specifically for training mages. The purpose was to simulate the performance of spellcasters after the spell slots were used up. This item would be recorded in the graduation assessment results.

After all, real mages never stick to magic; they use wisdom to solve problems.

"I have a way to avoid it, you can rest assured!"

Cecil said this with confidence.

"Then you mean to enter?"

"You've already gone in, why should I be afraid? Don't underestimate the determination of a spell caster, and I don't have time to wait any longer. I have to go to Losente as soon as possible. Besides, can you close the fog by yourself?"

Hearing Cecil's series of words, Woody was also silenced, because it was true. He really didn't know how the fog surrounding the Golden River Valley dispersed, and he didn't know how to solve it. From the Spirit of Nature

Judging from his tone, it was obvious that he had to go before the fog would disappear. Cohen had obviously made a deal with some creatures in the Lost Temple, as evidenced by the curse that had previously filled the bodies of the knight guards.

"So enter together, life or death, everything is decided by fate, and fate is now in our own hands. Fear and timidity will be the stubborn stones on the road to success."

Cecil said a famous quote from an unknown book to encourage morale, but everyone present knew that everyone had a reason to go, and retreating now would only frustrate their own intentions.

Woody will not be afraid of the rising difficulty of the dungeon and give up the easily accessible ascension ritual, and Cecil will not choose to wait for time to retreat because of difficulties. As for Kafferman, half of his body is about to be buried. The only

His only wish is to find some traces of his wife. He has long ago not cared about death, especially the spirit of nature. He never thinks that plane is dangerous, at least to him, it is not dangerous at all.

.

"Then let's go. Once the fog is lifted, you leave, and I won't go back with you."

"I must find Rhea this time. Fifty years ago, I was thinking about what I would be like now if she had not disappeared at that time."

Kafferman's voice was filled with memories of the past, but the movements of his hands did not stop. He was seen applauding.

"Let's go, children. If there is really danger, I will stay to buy you time."

Kafferman was so calm that even the extremely proud bronze dragon girl couldn't help but feel a little admiration at this moment. She sighed in the hearts of the two of them.

"This is probably the reason why the Metal Dragon Clan has been observing humans for thousands of years and never gets tired of it! Human beings, in their short lifespan, can cultivate diamond-like qualities that giant dragons cannot evolve for thousands of years."

"It is precisely because it is short that I want to be wonderful."

Cecil looked at Caverman, his expression not too moved, and replied inwardly with an indifferent expression.

And Doni is obviously a little dissatisfied. Does this mean that she doesn't want to be wonderful if she lives a long life?

"You're just bored."

She obviously didn't agree with this view, but what she didn't expect was that Woody's reply was even more negative.

She could only nod perfunctorily in agreement with Cecil.

Woody only thinks that the metal dragon is a pure fun dragon, looking for fun everywhere, and what he said is not nonsense, the dragon is very boring to begin with.

Just like the bronze dragon, it was able to gather together to discuss a human war decades ago that lasted far longer than the duration of the war. Its long lifespan is an example of doing whatever it wants.

But for Kafferman's answer, Woody didn't know whether to be moved or laugh. He could only comfort him.

"Don't worry, if you all follow my orders, I believe the problem won't be big, and don't be so pessimistic. Maybe something will happen soon that will give you the joy of life again."

Woody naturally knew that his wife Rhea should have finished her evening prayers in the temple and was preparing to rest.

Now and then, it is no surprise that the first person to achieve his goal was Kafferman.

Kafferman naturally didn't know what was waiting for him, so he just thought it was Woody's comfort, and his expression softened.

"You are a good boy. What I just said still stands. After all, death is nothing to be afraid of."

"……."

Seeing Carverman like this, Woody could only sigh in his heart.

"It seems that an embarrassing situation is inevitable. He has really tried his best!"

"Let's go. Where is the place where you can enter that place? As long as I can enter there, I will have a way to contact the person inside and ask him to take us to the place where the contact is lifted."

The spirit of nature interrupted at this time.

Woody sighed after hearing this.

"Promise me not to contact them. Now describe the appearance of that place and I can take you there."
