The dew in the early morning is very heavy, and everything is wet. The sunlight is blocked by the thick water vapor, and the light is refracted into various colors during its propagation.
Blue, green, purple, red... this wonderful scene is like a rich oil painting.
Tick, tick, dewdrops dripped from the leaves. A small squirrel-shaped animal carefully poked its nose out of the nest. Its well-developed sense of smell distinguished every subtle smell in the air. After a long time, it poked its head out.
.
Gray, with a body as big as a house cat, it is extremely agile. The claws of this little thing are thick and 'webbed' like a duck's paw. They move almost silently. They often only see a gray shadow and then disappear.
Lost traces.
The small camp is located in a hollow embraced by two big trees. The water has been drained away, but the overnight dew still makes the low-lying areas wet and muddy. The griffin is very dissatisfied with this environment, so Tianyi
They started to make a fuss immediately, and the reins holding them were almost torn off by them.
Qiao Shan stepped into the mud, splashing mud and water, and his trouser legs were covered with mud spots. He was carrying a large bucket, which was filled with a green soup with branches and green leaves floating on the surface. It had a strange smell.
Spread out, the little squirrel-like thing jumped onto the wooden fence, creaked and raised its two front paws, and kept bowing to him.
"little things!"
Qiao Shan laughed and scolded, deliberately ignoring it. After opening the animal pen, he poured half a bucket of paste into the long stone nest. Then he picked up a wooden brush, drank the clear water that had settled overnight, and skillfully served his mount.
.
One after another, the gryphon knights in the camp carried wooden barrels and went out. The long animal pen was filled with the sound of gryphons singing for joy and snoring as they ate.
Qiao Shan followed the mission prompts. Such detailed mission prompts have not appeared for a long time. Since the beginning of the 7th beta, the emphasis on immersion and role-playing has given players a high degree of freedom.
——It turns out that the inside should be in harmony with the outside.
After all these things were done, the team that had been stationed in this uninhabited land for two days gathered together, took out the parchment map, and started discussing about this oil lamp.
"no problem."
He didn't wave his hand until it exceeded the range that the team list could support.
Qiao Shan did not let down his guard, because there was not a single player in this convoy, they were all aboriginal NPCs.
"Boss, that's all you command."
[Ding: Trigger special plot mission...]
The system uses a red ID logo to illustrate the danger of the man in the black cloak.
Qiao Shan could sense the griffon's heartbeat, feel the air expelled by its vigorously flapping wings, adjust his own state and posture according to its state and posture, and follow its breathing frequency, every rise and fall.
, dive, hover or even hover as if you are flying without any external force... This feeling is something that cold machines and roaring engines cannot provide.
The substitute stayed in place for him for three seconds.
It was too late, but it was soon. It all happened in just one moment.
Has the system translated it?
No, there is no prompt...
This logistics supply team comes from Phoenix Town, which is more than 100 kilometers away from the front line. It is located on the border of the former North American server. The players escorting them are American players. While resting by a small river this morning, they suddenly encountered a small team of enemies infiltrating into the rear.
The team made a sneak attack. At the critical moment, the player held back the enemy and let the NPC lead the supply team to leave first... That was already 5 hours ago.
"Uh... stop making trouble!"
The Necromancer said in a dry, emotionless voice: "I want to talk to the person behind you."
Qiao Shan and the others are responsible for guarding this airspace and the surrounding vast rear areas. If something goes wrong, they will have to take responsibility. They have to protect themselves day and night. The only question is whether they should let rats come in and cause damage if everything is done. Qiao Shan doesn't
He said that he was actually very depressed.
"Of course, look..."
"Descent to 500 meters, be careful!"
"That's it, we'll leave in 15 minutes!"
"Okay, this lizard man's lair is a bit weird. Try your best to sneak in and have a look. Remember, no matter what you find, don't act rashly. Come back safely."
As soon as the abnormality appeared, Qiao Shan jumped on the mount. The griffin roared and struggled to get up, but the shadow fell forward. A sickle that turned from virtual to real struck down head on. Qiao Shan drew his shield and faced it.
However, the sickle turned into a virtual body at the moment of the collision, passed through the shield, and struck the gryphon on the neck.
"This little thing..."
The remaining six people got on the gryphon mounts that were about to move, and when they lifted the reins, the gryphons scolded lightly and flew into the air together.
This shows that the player is already in danger, but the enemy has not suffered much losses.
When we arrived at the location where the incident occurred, there was no one there. There were traces of battles everywhere. No players or enemies were found.
The intelligence of a griffon is roughly equivalent to that of a smarter parrot. Some mutated griffins can even have the intelligence of a human child. This big guy can be quite cute sometimes, especially when it is relaxed.
"I am Moloch, Moloch Egg."
There was a moment of panic in the convoy, and they cheered when they saw it was one of their own.
"Grrrrrr!"
The griffon flew into the sky and soon turned into a small black dot.
Six griffons formed a flying geese formation, advancing at high speed in the airspace at an altitude of 2,000 meters.
The griffin suffered tremendous pain, struggled, and went crazy. Qiao Shan had no choice but to jump off the mount and smash a charging skeleton warrior to pieces with one knife.
The griffin whined and took off for a moment. Fortunately, the neck protector was there, and the gryphon was injured but not dead. It soared into the air before the scythe whirled and struck again.
"Forget it, let's let it be free."
not good!
"That's all right, Your Excellency!"
The attacker was hiding among the aboriginal NPCs, and had been deceived by them before.
Reporting this information would be enough to offset the responsibility for the attack on the supply team.
"Necromancer!"
——The Necromancer appeared from behind.
"Got it, head."
"Let's compete, captain!?"
Qiao Shan blocked the griffon's big tongue and washed his face. The brush in his hand vigorously brushed the gaps between its scales. It was obviously very comfortable for him, so he kept using his tongue to repay those who served him.
"Okay, okay, I'm scared of you!"
"Spacewalker!"
"interesting……"
The necromancer started chanting, and Qiao Shan thought he was about to attack, so he could only send a [Puppet Stand] on the spot and tear open a scroll at the same time.
The bell in the camp rang. At this time, the sunlight had basically evaporated all the water vapor from last night, the light became stronger, and it was another sunny and sunny day.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
"Don't make trouble!"
Until he flew to a height of several hundred meters, Qiao Shan still couldn't believe that he could escape from a certain death situation so easily.
…
The system prompts even provide lines, which also shows that the characters in this special plot mission are not simple.
Qiao Shan froze and looked back, but found nothing.
Qiao Shan hurried back to do morning lessons, yawned, and 'recited' the teachings of the System God of Hunting with his teammates. He went on missions and kept everything simple. Everyone was slacking off on their errands.
Qiao Shan repeatedly confirmed that no problem was found, so he asked his five griffon knights to take on the task of escorting the supply team, and flew to the location of the incident alone - he needed to confirm the status of those American players, and if there was still a chance, he would arrest them
Stay on the enemy's tail, call for support, and destroy them.
"Xiao Xiami, do you have any problem being alone?"
"I have been sleeping for a long time. It was a large amount of flesh and soul that woke me up. I noticed that you and the minions of the gods are at war... I want to meet your leader..."
He looked around quickly, looking for a way out.
Flying is a dream engraved in human genes. Controlling a cold machine is far less real and exciting than it is now.
"We were attacked!"
"Lift your feet!"
"I want to talk to the man behind you."
"I am Sheriff Roald Hashimoto of Phoenix Town..."
"At 6 o'clock, our supply convoy was discovered!"
After finally cleaning the big guy, Qiao Shan started cleaning it again.
"Boss, don't worry"
"What's going on?"
Players can be resurrected, but NPCs only have one life. When encountering danger, players usually let NPCs with whom they have a good relationship go first. This is normal.
It is also ironic to say that the natives are better at infiltration and counter-infiltration special operations than players. Even the ubiquitous system cannot prevent this situation from happening again and again. It can be seen that the system is not omnipotent. Just like people, they have the ability to consciously
Inert, there is a blind spot for monitoring.
"stop!"
A task is actually a task.
"Wait a minute, I have to come one by one!"
The rising sun is right in front, and it looks so golden and huge from above the clouds. All worries are far away, leaving only generosity, ambition and pride.
As the knights adjusted their postures, the six griffins understood the intention behind them. They all hissed loudly, and their triangular heads penetrated the clouds diagonally and descended to the predetermined height.
More than a dozen vines shot up from the quagmire under him, half of them failed, and half wrapped around the gryphon's lower limbs, jumping... In an instant, it was pulled upright, Qiao Shan slashed with his sword, and the chopped vines spurted out
Thick and dark juice.
"Zhizhizhi~~"
Qiao Shan landed in front of a large pit where a big tree had fallen. He pinched a handful of dirt and smelled it. His color changed and he said, "Undead?"
"The remaining people will continue yesterday's route with me. Remember, if we get separated, we will go to location 6!"
"Lean closer!"
The suddenly understandable voice coming from behind him made him pause, then he released the gryphon, lifted the reins, and rose rapidly.
Necromancer Moloch Egg?
Qiao Shan's vision blurred for a moment, and then he appeared at the scene where the logistics supply team was attacked. The necromancer appeared beside him and saw everything before, during and after the attack.
"How do you feel, old man?"
The 10-point griffon team was divided into three teams. Qiao Shan led the team with the most people and sent four teammates to leave the camp one by one.
"Momonaka belongs to Warcraft, right? Why doesn't the captain accept it?"
"Aren't you afraid that a fight has already started?"
The system does not provide translation, and Qiao Shan has no idea what he is talking about.
"Ouch~~"
He looked back in the direction of the Necromancer, and saw only an expanding shadow that looked like the god of death, turning into mist and dissolving into the air.
He scooped out a ladle of paste from the food nest and placed it in front of [Gray Flying Squirrel]. The little guy couldn't wait to dive in and started eating.
Qiao Shan smiled, squeezed his legs slightly, and the griffon under his crotch flapped its wings and started to accelerate.
"I have no ill intentions towards you, and I didn't kill your companions... No, it shouldn't be killing. I noticed that your life situation is very special... the net... it is really a masterpiece..."
"Sanmao, Li Tie, and Laizi, please patrol this route and be careful about this place."
It is difficult to open the mouth while flying at high speed, but this is not a problem for players. Six griffins are facing the rising sun and flying through the cotton-like clouds, and their teammates are screaming excitedly.
The necromancer had a good time, and his huge scythe retracted into the shadow emitted by his cloak. Qiao Shan and the griffon were surrounded by the undead, and the opportunity to escape had been lost.
Flying at low altitude is far more awkward and more dangerous than flying at high altitude. The endless virgin forest is slightly arc-shaped and looks particularly calm in the sun.
With a gentle wave of his hand from the necromancer, Qiao Shan left the 'mission scene' and returned to the back of the griffin.
"Captain, we're here!"
"Who are you?"
"It's better to be free than to be taken care of."
The second blow of the scythe missed and fell into the hands of a man in a black cloak who appeared at an unknown time. With a clicking sound, a large number of undead emerged from the ground, including many mid-to-high-level soldiers such as black warriors and skeleton knights.
The gryphon fell heavily to the ground, and the parts of its body that were splashed by juice sizzled. The hard scales and flesh were rapidly withering and corroding, and the pale thigh bones could be seen.
"Do you know who attacked our supply team? Who were they?"
A [Grey Flying Squirrel] chased out, jumped onto a big rock, and screamed sadly into the sky.
"It should be."
"Leave it to me!"
Qiao Shan lightly lifted the reins, and the gryphon changed direction in a graceful arc. Its long tail passed over the top of a giant tree. Five minutes later, it arrived over a convoy of more than a dozen beasts of burden.
.
Although they are all "veteran pilots", flying in such a world still makes people so excited and excited every time.
As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of dense clicking sounds appeared around him, and a dark, silent roaring shadow rushed towards him.
There was a big pile in the animal pen filled with the feces excreted by this guy last night. The scavenger covered his nose and shoveled out a huge pile. The [Gray Flying Squirrel] waiting outside couldn't wait any longer and jumped onto the animal pen, squeaking.
call.
Three seconds later, using a noble [Random Teleportation] scroll, Qiao Shan appeared in a bush a hundred meters away. At the same time, he patted his chest and took back the griffin mount that was surrounded by heavy enemies.
"I would like to introduce you to the frontline commander and first-class regiment commander, Lord Edward Earl, Your Excellency!"
"Edward...very good!"
After that, the voice never appeared again.
Qiao Shan caught up with his teammates. Fortunately, what he worried about did not happen. Looking at the attackers mixed in with the aboriginal NPCs, he calmly led the supply team to the corps headquarters on the front line.
