The distance from the temple gate to the central fire is only about 20 meters, but Mad Dog Dragon feels like it is thousands of miles away.
Along the way, his brain was calculating at a geometric speed. Marshal Wu was obviously on top, but now he actually appeared in the temple. There must have been many accidents during this period, but no matter what kind, it was all his own
Can't figure it out yet.
It wasn't until he sat down in front of the fire that Marshal Wu threw him a bag of water, meaning it would be for you to drink.
Looking at Marshal Wu's plain expression, it seemed as if everything that happened in the palace on the mountain had nothing to do with him.
Marshal Wu fiddled with the fire carelessly with a wooden stick, and the first words he spoke made Mad Dog Dragon puzzled: "You may not know yet, only those with corresponding achievements can safely pass the steps of the Imperial City.
.”
"What do you mean?" Mad Dog Dragon didn't understand.
Marshal Wu didn't even raise his head and continued to stir the fire: "On the steps to the Imperial City, groups of ghosts gathered there. Our players' attacks are completely ineffective against them. There are only two ways to pass safely.
One has corresponding props, and the other has corresponding personal achievements."
Now Mad Dog Dragon completely understood.
Achievements are also a very interesting system in "The Ninth Continent". Players will obtain corresponding achievements after completing various tasks, such as: "Escape Expert", "Defense Master", "Invulnerable to All Poisons", "Arcane
"Skill Specialization" and so on.
These are usually system rewards obtained after completing very difficult system tasks, and tasks assigned by players are not among them.
These achievements themselves do not provide attribute bonuses, but they are incredibly useful in certain circumstances.
Mad Dog Dragon originally obtained the "Development Master" achievement at the Japanese power tower in Yamatai. After destroying the Sun Queen, he upgraded this achievement and became an "Exploration Master".
The advantage of this set of achievements is that you can reach many unknown areas, dangerous areas and undeveloped areas that ordinary players cannot reach. It is also easier than ordinary players to obtain corresponding copy props and enhance the explosion rate of related special monsters.
Just like the ghost on the steps just now, Mad Dog Dragon's attributes were very low when he was attacked. After climbing up the eaves, the ghost stopped chasing him. This is the "Adventure Master" achievement at work. If it were anyone else, he would be directly attacked.
Those ghosts were killed on the spot.
And after Marshal Wu explained it like this, Mad Dog Dragon knew that there was no need to deny what he was denying? Everyone knew everything.
Mad Dog Dragon pondered and said, "How did you discover me?"
Marshal Wu smiled: "Your shoes are very special. There are thorns all over the shoes, and the soles should also be thorns. When I returned to the hall, I found a pair of unfamiliar footprints on the ground. The footprints were all pockmarked. Now you
Although you have changed your armor, your shoes have not."
Mad Dog Dragon suddenly realized that such a big flaw had been ignored. He could track the opponent's footprints, and the opponent could also identify his own footprints.
The so-called opponent means that since a person can be your opponent, he will naturally be on par with you. Never underestimate your opponent's IQ.
The firelight danced on Marshal Wu's face, and his expression was gloomy and uncertain: "I can see that you are very curious about this ghost town, but I think the more important thing is to work together to find a way to escape."
Mad Dog Dragon stared at him: "Do you know a way?"
Marshal Wu said: "The ancient city of Loulan was once very prosperous, but then it mysteriously disappeared overnight. It is said that it coincided with a magical barrier at that time. The barrier swallowed up the ancient city, so the ancient city disappeared. However, the barrier was also damaged.
This barrier is called the land of the gods."
Mad Dog Dragon listened quietly.
Marshal Wu continued: "I was the first group of people to come in a week ago, and now I am the only one left in that group. At that time, there were actually two groups of people. When we came in, the city could still come and go freely, but
A magister from the Twisted Jungle insists on reactivating the ward."
Mad Dog Long said: "It sounds like he succeeded?"
"Yes!" Marshal Wu nodded, "He did succeed, but there were two problems. The first was that he released a large number of ghosts. The ghosts killed almost everyone. Many people died at that time.
I'm the only one who survived."
Mad Dog Dragon gradually understood something: "Another problem is that although the barrier has been activated, you have not found the entrance to the land of gods?"
Marshal Wu nodded and said: "If you want to leave the city, you must go through the barrier. If you break through the city gate, you will never be able to leave."
Mad Dog Dragon has understood everything now: "Do you want me to help you find the entrance?"
Marshal Wu glanced at him appreciatively: "If you can pass through the ghost crowd, you should have at least two levels of 'Soul', 'Defense' or 'Development' achievements. I just need someone like you."
Mad Dog Dragon couldn't help but said: "Why don't you mobilize everyone here to help you find it, and everyone can go out after you find it?"
Marshal Wu said calmly: "I really have that ability and activated all of it. These people may not be able to pass through the ghost crowd. Besides, some people are stupid and have too much money. These useless people will be a burden if they go up. Why don't you let me make money from them?"
Money should be put to its best use. Miss Jin seems to be an old acquaintance of yours, and you know her to a certain extent. People like her don’t make money in vain, what do you think?"
Mad Dog Dragon secretly thought to himself that you are really evil. What is certain is that there will definitely be unknowing players outside the city who accidentally enter this ghost town in the future. In the future, you will not only be able to find an exit, but you will also make a lot of money.
Damn it, labor and management also want to play this kind of good thing, but unfortunately they don’t have the capital.
It's just that poor Jin Wu and the widow were taken advantage of again, but Marshal Wu was right. That guy Jin Wu just couldn't let go of the eldest lady's airs, and he still had such bad virtues that he could only open his mouth when he was wearing clothes, and he was reduced to this.
At this point, you don’t necessarily have to die if you go out and take risks.
Marshal Wu said: "What's more, the boss in the western district opposite is called General Zhang. He now knows about the land of God Realm and has sent people to find an exit in the imperial city. At least we can't let them take the lead. The horns who fought with you just now
The fighter is one of General Zhang's men, called Ben Lei Kuang Zhan, and he is level 46."
These words are very useful to Mad Dog Dragon. He is only level 19 now, but he can already compete with tough men who are over level 40.
Marshal Wu took out a string of black Buddhist beads from the bag: "Don't worry, I won't let you help me in vain."
Mad Dog Dragon took it and took a look:
Loulan evil-avoiding beads:
Function: Dispel all kinds of evil spirits and evil spirits. It can only be used in the Loulan City area.
It turns out those ghosts are also afraid of you because you have this thing.
Mad Dog Dragon accepted it calmly: "You can't just send me away with such a small thing, right? Even if I don't have this evil-avoiding bead, I can still go to the imperial city."
Marshal Wu smiled: "Don't worry, I will pay you heavily once the matter is accomplished. I hope you can keep this matter a secret and not let other unrelated people know about it."
Mad Dog Dragon certainly knows what he is planning, and he still wants to continue to make money from those ignorant people.
"My requirements are not high, I want money, everything else is easy to talk about!" Mad Dog Dragon became tough.
Marshal Wu took out a handful of holy coins and weighed them in his hand: "This is a deposit of 10 holy coins. As long as you find the entrance, I will give you another 20. Are you satisfied with your conditions?"
Of course Mad Dog Dragon is satisfied. My brother is not a saint. He will definitely not imitate the three great poets to act chivalrously and do justice for heaven. My brother’s route is to desperately make money, get rich, and strive to escape from the primary stage of socialism as soon as possible and advance ahead of schedule.
Enter a well-off life.
His idea changed again in the evening of the next day, because after Wu Dashuai's auction ended, the three great poets sat in the corner of the temple and whispered, seemingly discussing something.
Mad Dog Dragon walked over curiously: "Three, three great poems!"
When Gambler saw it was him, he quickly greeted him and sat down: "Brother, I came just in time. Three of us and I are looking for you."
"Oh?" Mad Dog Long said, "What do the three great poets want to do with my little brother?"
The gambler said in a deep voice: "Brother Fool went up the mountain to investigate the palace in this city during the day. Unexpectedly, he ran into a group of evil thieves in the West District. They actually took the drinking water I found for themselves in broad daylight. Brother, you said, these bandits
Should humans be killed?"
Mad Dog Dragon hesitated and said: "This..."
Before he could express his position, Li Qingzhao next to him became angry on the spot: "This city has been in drought for a long time. Brother Gambling finally found fresh water, but it was snatched away by a shameless villain. This made me unable to sit back and watch. I must take revenge."
"
Defeated, he also nodded and touched his beard: "Forcibly snatch his life-saving things. According to the laws of the dynasty, he will be severely punished and sent to the border areas. We are wandering around the world, and we must do justice for heaven. Brother, I will wait for you later.
We are about to go up the mountain, and as we are both from the Tang Dynasty, I am sure you won’t sit idly by and do nothing, right?”
"This...that..." Mad Dog Dragon is in trouble again. I want to find an exit at night, but the three of you want to fight. Master, don't waste time like this.
Gambling stared at Mad Dog Dragon: "Is Brother Yi having concerns?"
Mad Dog Dragon felt guilty after being stared at, but when he thought about the three great poets who had helped him several times without asking for anything in return, he was really embarrassed to say his refusal.
"That's no problem!" Mad Dog Dragon said decisively.
He was overjoyed when he lost the bet: "Brother Yi is worthy of being a good man of the Tang Dynasty. He must be a great hero."
Li Qingzhao also raised his arms and shouted: "Brother Li is a pure man, a true man of iron and blood, a good brother of the people, a good father and son, Brother Li, what do you think?"
Master Li naturally nodded and smiled, touched his invisible beard, and then began to point out: "Haha, the three of us join forces... Oh no, this time it's the four of us who join forces, no one in the world can beat us, this night trip
Ghost town, go up the mountain to kill thieves, right?
It is a matter of gratification and killing harm for the people. It will definitely achieve great fame and leave an eternal song. However... At this moment, I feel empty in my belly and unbearable hunger and thirst. Brother, don't you still have spiced beef jerky? Can you start first?
