Chapter 254 Faction Selection (two chapters in one)
"I, I think I heard it was Yuanshi Tianzun, um, calling himself Yuanshi Tianzun, what did he say?"
Some members of the Five Elements Alliance said in surprise.
"Yuanshi Tianzun?" Jiang Jingwei's ears twitched, he stood on tiptoes and looked towards the source of the sound, with a happy face: "What did that guy say? Is he also coming to help us fight the boss?"
The sound coming from far away was already somewhat distorted by the time it reached everyone's ears.
Coupled with the surrounding tree demons, the tree king has revived, and there is too much noise, making it even harder to hear.
But when they discovered that it was the "long-lost" Yuanshi Tianzun, the officials were refreshed, as if they had found their leader.
"What is he saying?"
"Did you hear clearly?"
In the casual retreat, some people were listening and asking questions.
Although it is extremely unwise to be distracted at this time, things related to Yuanshi Tianzun can always make people pay attention unconsciously.
The performance of evil professions is the same. Several witch and Gu masters couldn't help but listen carefully, relying on the hearing improved by "turning Gu" to capture the movement in the distance.
The call came again:
"I am Yuanshi Tianzun, all official practitioners, gather here!"
But this time, most of them heard clearly.
Gathering official practitioners? Gathering official practitioners at this time? Everyone was stunned.
The first ones to jump in are the evil professions. If all the official people leave, they will face the Tree King together with a group of casual cultivators.
The mortality rate has greatly increased.
The official practitioners are obviously stronger than the casual cultivators. For example, right now, without those earth monsters holding up a barrier to block the attack of the tree king, they would not have time to listen to the sound.
Immediately there was a strange and strange rhythm:
"Could this guy have encountered a mountain ghost or a monkey king? He couldn't defeat him and asked for help?"
"You didn't come when you beat the Tree King just now, and now you're asking for help? Think about it, the Tree King only has one life left, and his attack power is obviously weak. Let's work together to kill the Tree King now, and we can get points.
"
"That's right, you didn't push the boss just now, and you called someone when you were in danger. You are such a Yuanshi Tianzun. You are treating the people of the Five Elements Alliance as fools, no, you are using them as a shield."
The words to sow discord were quite inflammatory, and the official practitioner who was not familiar with Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly showed hesitation.
At this time, someone among the casual cultivators took the time to open the standings and take a look. Suddenly his eyes widened and he shouted:
"Yuanshi Tianzun ranks first in the standings."
Everyone present was stunned, their expressions changed, and they quickly opened the scoreboard.
Sure enough, Ha Yi, who was originally ranked first with 110 points, fell to second place.
The points of Yuanshi Tianzun are: 140 points.
When everyone besieged the Tree King, he clearly still had 20 points, but dozens of people left. In a short period of time, his points increased by 120 points.
How did he do it?
This flip-flop has been broken, Bai Wutao's expression suddenly changed: "Did Yuanshi Tianzun complete the side mission?"
This sentence caused a huge uproar.
It is impossible to accumulate points by killing tree demons. Yuanshi Tianzun cannot kill so many in a short period of time, and the tree king is not dead. The only source of points is the reward for completing side tasks.
This reason is very simple. People who dare to enter the killing dungeon are not necessarily smart, but they are certainly not stupid. They realize this immediately.
"It turns out that the way to push the boss is really wrong. There are other ways to enter the second level, and it was captured by Yuanshi Tianzun."
"There are two major camps, lawful and evil. There are so many geniuses and only one Yuanshi Tianzun has completed the guide. It turns out that the official is not bragging. This is the genius who has cleared two S-level characters. This is the genius of the guide copy."
"No wonder he has been silent before. It turns out he was holding back his ultimate move. He is truly worthy of being the Yuanshi Tianzun!"
In the crowd, the low-pitched discussions of the monks could be heard.
The other evil professions had strange expressions on their faces, ranging from frightened and angry to unwilling, but also filled with joy.
Because after Yuanshi Tianzun figured out the correct method, they could follow suit and enter the central area at the lowest cost.
There are no taboos, my fate is up to me, I am the only master, and other masters. Their expressions were a little solemn and a little stunned. This was the first time that they felt the gap between them and Yuanshi Tianzun.
Zhao Chenghuang didn't give them this feeling, even though he was very strong.
Hajime's empty eyes burst out with strange fluctuations for the first time.
On the official side, the members of the Five Elements Alliance were breathing heavily and their faces were filled with ecstasy.
Yuanshi Tianzun is Yuanshi Tianzun, and he did not disappoint.
Seeing that he was unable to increase his points, the official practitioners were anxious in their eyes. Although they knew the level of Yuanshi Tianzun from watching the group competition.
But what if he performs abnormally?
Fortunately, Yuanshi Tianzun did not disappoint. The big stone hanging in everyone's hearts fell, and strong confidence and joy surged.
At this moment, in just a few seconds, everyone's emotions and mentality experienced huge ups and downs, but Jiang Jingwei didn't think so much, and his face bloomed with a bright smile:
"Yuanshi Tianzun, let us pass!"
He waved his hand to greet his companions. Without thinking, he moved flexibly, avoiding the vines falling from the sky, and rushed into the dense forest, heading towards the source of the sound.
Seeing this, the fire masters of the Five Elements Alliance followed one after another. On the one hand, they acted faster than their minds. On the other hand, the senior leaders of the Red Fire Gang talked to the fire masters and entered the killing dungeon. If conditions permit, they must protect them.
By Jiang Jingwei.
The people of Taiyi Sect, headed by Zhao Chenghuang, did not go immediately, but were alert to the evil camp.
When the people of the Five Elements Alliance walked away, the eight people went on a night tour at the same time, disappeared, and followed the Five Elements Alliance travelers from different directions.
"Let's go, let's go too, and follow the official people."
"We are a lawful profession and are good citizens. Yuanshi Tianzun will teach us how to pass the level. Let's go quickly."
The casual cultivators of the lawful profession dispersed in a rush.
Seeing this scene, the evil profession felt a strong sense of urgency and wanted to follow immediately. However, the strange thing was that several seed players headed by Hajime and several powerful casual cultivators did not pursue the lawful ones at all.
Camp ideas.
Without these masters following them, if they pursue rashly, they will only be killed.
In a dense forest somewhere, Tian Xia Gui Huo, who was sitting on the ground leaning against a tree trunk, moved his ears and heard a call from afar.
Immediately he straightened his back, bounced off the ground, and said excitedly:
"Let's go and meet Yuanshi Tianzun. He knows how to enter the second level."
The tone-deaf guy had just finished reading the standings and stood up with the same excitement on his face, "He can really do it."
These two guys who were bullied by Yuanshi Tianzun in the dungeon never doubted his wisdom. It was inevitable to crack the pass conditions, as long as they waited patiently.
Tian Xia Gui Huo had already run a certain distance. When the music idiot caught up, he said:
"Although the points are a little less, the advantage is safety. Before I entered the killing dungeon, the superior deacon gave me a tip. In the dungeon, saving life is the first priority, because there is only one life, and there are twenty-four saints.
"We don't need to compete for first place, or even top ten, as long as we occupy a place among the twenty-four places."
After saying that, he saw that Yin Chi's eyes were always looking in the direction of the Tree King. He frowned and emphasized: "This is the experience of seniors. Do you listen?"
The tone-deaf man looked back and said with a smile:
"Your superior deacon must not be a fire master. If he were a fire master, he would say: Just do it and it's over. If you can't do it, run away."
Tianxia Guihuo shook his head and said seriously:
"No, you are wrong!
"He would say: If you can't do it, shake people off and keep doing it!"
The tone-deaf person was stunned and laughed: "Fortunately, this is a dungeon and there are only two of us. If other fire masters hear it, you will be doomed."
He is Yuanshi Tianzun, he really is Yuanshi Tianzun. The plump and charming Peony Fairy looked at the young man beside her, with surprise, astonishment and relief in her beautiful eyes.
There are only so many Night Traveling Gods in the dungeon, but they are so good at conquering the dungeon. After thinking about it, Yuanshi Tianzun is the only one.
She had already suspected it, but it was just that the Inferi was different from the one on the stage, and the Night Walker in the extraordinary stage was not so luxurious as to replace a powerful Inferi at will.
So I was confused and didn't dare to confirm.
Seeing him reveal his identity in person, Fairy Peony finally confirmed that Wang Tai was Yuanshi Tianzun!
As soon as I entered the dungeon, I met Yuanshi Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun who those little hooves longed for, well, it was also what I longed for. Fairy Peony heard her heart beating wildly.
I just feel that the air I breathe is filled with a hint of ambiguity and heat.
She suddenly regretted that she had not had anything happen to him along the way and kept her distance.
"Ahhhh~"
Asano Ryo screamed, jumping like an anime girl, her face turned red:
"You are Yuanshi Tianzun. No wonder you are a righteous partner. I have met Yuanshi Tianzun. When I leave the killing dungeon alive, I will tell my parents and master."
You look so excited, just like a local girl from a small place. Zhang Yuanqing complained in his heart, and when he noticed Fairy Peony's strange gaze, he raised his eyebrows, winked, and said with a smile:
"Are you surprised, are you surprised? Peony, are you still planning to lick me? Where should you start?"
Fairy Peony suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Zhang Yuanqing took off his disguise ring and regained his appearance.
Now that I have confessed my identity, there is no need to stand in Wang Tai’s face anymore.
Alas, I originally wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, secretly distinguishing the chess pieces of Dark Night Rose, but the plan always failed to keep up with the changes. Zhang Yuanqing sighed in his heart.
Fairy Peony looked at this young and handsome face and felt it was reasonable.
After all, Yuanshi Tianzun, who frequently took off his pants in the arena, looked exactly like this.
"Yuanshi Tianzun!"
At this time, a girl's unique and loud voice broke the calm.
The dense forest ahead swayed, and a red-haired girl emerged from the forest.
Then, more and more official travelers came, including the River Crossing Pawn, Long Live the White Tiger, the Little Match Boy, the Niulan Mountain Fairy, the Rain Girl Wu Gua, and the Pigeon. A total of eighteen people.
In the battle with the Tree King, the official lost a total of seven people.
Later, Zhao Chenghuang and others from Taiyi Sect, as well as Yin Chi, Tianxiaguihuo, arrived one after another.
Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see the evil profession coming. Otherwise, a battle would have broken out here in advance.
Jiang Jingwei chirped:
"Why did your points change to first place? Have you really entered the second level? How do you count as meeting the conditions?"
Her problem is a problem common to everyone, especially the conditions for entering the second level.
Eyes of hidden expectancy were cast towards Zhang Yuanqing.
Then, everyone saw him raising a branch in his hand, which was decorated with bunches of red fruits, and said:
"Eat a fruit and you can enter the middle of the forest."
Upon hearing the answer, the official practitioners were stunned.
It's that simple?
"It looks delicious." Jiang Jingwei jumped in front of him, looked at the bright red fruit, and swallowed.
Zhang Yuanqing picked a red fruit the size of a longan and handed it to her.
Jiang Jingwei stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it almost without chewing, "It didn't taste good."
After she finished speaking, she hummed comfortably, and her pretty little face, which was rich in collagen, flushed. Then she said "chichi" repeatedly, and illusory black smoke rose from her body.
Then, with everyone watching, she crossed the sign and successfully entered the middle of the forest.
Seeing this scene, no one doubted him anymore and asked for the fruit one after another.
With surprise and expectation, I swallowed the red fruit and rushed to the signboard impatiently.
They entered the second level easily without being hindered by the invisible barrier, and received a task prompt, with an average increase of 20 points per person.
"Coming in, really coming in!"
"The fruit also has the effect of healing injuries and restoring physical strength?"
"One of the notices I saw was about edible wild fruits, but along the way, I only saw brightly colored wild fruits and fungi, and I didn't dare to eat them."
The official practitioners had incomplete information. After exchanging information with each other and combining it with the current situation, they immediately clarified their ideas.
The difficulty in choosing a camp in Lost City lies in defeating the boss.
The difficulty in choosing the mountain god camp is to not violate the precautions when the information is unequal, and to be able to collect all the precautions and deduce the correct approach.
The copies are fair, each has its own difficulties.
Zhao Chenghuang took the fruit from Zhang Yuanqing's hand and swallowed it into his belly. Feeling the warm current sweeping through his limbs and his body, feeling that his physical strength was gradually recovering, he slowly exhaled.
He had fought a hard battle with Alone before, which consumed a lot of physical energy. The fruit made up for his weakness, allowing him to enter the second level in the best condition.
"Thank you!"
Zhao Chenghuang nodded.
He hesitated for a moment and whispered: "The lawful Sanju is coming now, what are your plans?"
Hey, it's rare that the prince of Taiyi Sect actually took the initiative to talk to me. Zhang Yuanqing didn't think much about it, because he had already had ideas in this regard, and said:
"This is a camp versus dungeon. The more allies, the better. Of course, let them in. But only for lawful professions. If evil professions come, kill them directly."
Zhao Chenghuang nodded with satisfaction: "As I thought."
At this time, the official survivors were almost gathered, but Guan Ya was still nowhere to be seen. Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but feel anxious, looked around eagerly, and asked:
"Where's Guan Ya? Has anyone seen her? Jingwei, do you know?"
Guan Ya's ID is still on the scoreboard, which means that she is not dead, but she did not come with the official people. She must be in trouble and unable to escape.
Dark night has fallen, which is the time for Mountain Ghost to be active. Mountain Ghost belongs to the Lost City camp, and there is not much time left for him. If he stays outside for a second longer, he may be caught by the boss.
Jiang Jingwei shook his head: "I have never met Sister Guan Ya."
At this time, the soldier crossing the river wearing camouflage pants responded in a deep voice:
"When we were shooting down the Tree King just now, we had a sniper rifle helping us. The marksmanship was incredibly accurate. It must have come from a scout."
He pointed to the southwest: "That's where the ballistic trajectory comes from."
As expected of a scout, his observation skills are amazing. Zhang Yuanqing was overjoyed and said loudly:
"Thank you. You can wait here. You can also explore the central area on your own. Zhao Chenghuang, I will leave the handling of the lawless cultivators to you. I will come back as soon as I can."
After saying that, without waiting for anyone to respond, he ran into the dense forest and disappeared quickly.
"Why don't you catch up? Everyone is gone. Do we have to face the Monkey King, the Tree King, and those mountain ghosts alone?"
A witchcraft master stared at the seeded players and cursed.
"Aren't you geniuses? Aren't you ranked in the top ten? But in the end, none of you came up with a correct strategy, and you were all trampled under the feet of Yuanshi Tianzun."
The evil professions shouted as if they were venting their emotions.
Facing the questions and scoldings from fellow travelers, "My fate is up to me, I can't help it." I lifted up a strand of hair on my temples, turned my head to look at Sovereign, and chuckled:
"You, and the rest of you lawful casual cultivators, why don't you follow?"
I am the only one with a cold tone:
"This dungeon has two major camps. The camp of Lost City is to push the boss. I think this choice has higher rewards."
Bai Wu Tao asked:
"Three bosses are not easy to deal with."
I only have one look at him:
"One of my things to note is: when you encounter a mountain ghost, you can ask the monkeys for help. Obviously, the mountain ghost is from the Lost City camp, so we only need to follow the mountain ghost to push the boss."
Bai Wu Tao glanced at the shouting evil professions and said:
"I get it now?"
Guan Ya was in big trouble. After hearing Yuan Shi's call, she put away her gun and retreated for the first time. Without thinking, she ran in the direction of the source of the sound and met with the boy.
But unfortunately, she stepped into the trap left by the evil profession.
——A row of wooden thorns buried in the ground, covered with dead leaves, making them difficult to find.
Although the wooden thorns are hard, given the softness of the soil, it is logically impossible to pierce the thick soles of military boots.
But it was punctured, and the thorns were poisoned.
What was even more unfortunate was that as the tree king revived, the tree demons in the forest also revived, and there were actually twenty tree demons around her.
Being unlucky is like being cursed by the goddess of misfortune.
But Guan Ya knew that this was not the fault of the goddess of misfortune, but the fault of the broken gun.
The gun Fu Qingyang gave her was called the "Fearless One's Rifle", which had extremely powerful attack power. Even a monster who was good at defense would be injured by a single shot.
If all the magazines are loaded, the landowner will hate the northwest.
But it comes with a price, that is, within half an hour after using it, you will be plagued by bad luck.
"Papa pa pa"
The vines and branches whipped at him like a rainstorm, but they were all blocked by a thin layer of soil.
Guan Ya fell to the ground, wearing a clay mask, passively enduring the crazy whippings of the tree demons.
She used the tools of the wood demon profession to remove toxins and treat the puncture wounds on the soles of her feet. At the same time, in order to resist the vines that could kill her, she had to use the tools of the earth monster profession.
Although this allowed her to avoid a dead end, this mask had two costs: one was that it could not move, and the other was that it answered all questions and could not lie (honest person).
The latter didn't matter, but the former made her lose her ability to escape.
The situation is very bad. The props have their limits. The mask cannot last long and will be damaged at any time under such intensive attacks.
Without the protection of props, a scout who is not good at defense will definitely not be able to survive the onslaught of so many dryads, and her insight skills will not save her. If the scout enters the rain curtain, he will still be exposed to the rain, even if he can see every drop of rain falling.
Trajectory doesn't help either.
"Crack!"
I was really afraid that something might happen, and there was a slight cracking sound from the mask covering my face.
A wealthy woman like Guan Ya couldn't help but cursed "fuck" in her heart, she was so unlucky.
Bang bang bang.
The sound of whipping continued to echo, and the cracks in the mask spread rapidly, showing signs of collapse.
Guan Ya felt despair in her heart.
At this time, a voice of relief and a bit of playful smile came from not far away:
"Hey, Sister Guan Ya, no wonder I couldn't find you for a long time. You turned out to be a mistress here. If you had told me earlier, I would be willing to change your xp for you."
Even Guan Ya, who came from a wealthy family and had a lot of knowledge, could not help but feel a flutter in her heart at this moment.
When you are in crisis, when you are desperate, someone can stand up and say: Sister Guan Ya, it turns out you like to be M.
It is a very happy and touching thing.
Guan Ya pursed her lips. She wanted to respond to this way of communication that was exclusive to them, but when her words came to her lips, she turned into a sad explanation:
"My rifle will reduce my luck value. I'm not trying to be a m. I'm just too unlucky."
This is the price of the mask.
Zhang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment and said: "Since ancient times, spearmen have been lucky?"
Guan Ya cried angrily:
"Are you still making fun of me? Hurry up and help me~"
"Oh!" Zhang Yuanqing guessed that Sister Guan Ya might have been frightened, so her style suddenly changed.
So without any further delay, he summoned the bloodthirsty blade, and his spirit body came out of his body, wrapped in the weapon and whirled around, cutting down vines one after another.
He didn't dare to use fire because it violated the precautions.
For the same reason, he did not dare to destroy the tree demon, but chose to cut off the vines.
Sections of vines fell down, and the fractures were even. The dryads let out shrill screams and retracted half of the vines one after another.
Soon, a vacuum zone was cleared around Guan Ya, the pressure dropped sharply, and the remaining tree roots could no longer threaten the scouts with insight skills.
She immediately took off her mask, took back her inventory, sometimes walked sideways, sometimes jumped sideways, nimbly avoiding the entangled tree roots, smoothly rushed out of the dangerous area, and met up with Zhang Yuanqing.
Both of them felt relieved.
Zhang Yuanqing speaks very fast:
"I have found a way to enter the second level. Without further ado, let's go there quickly. By the way, Sister Guan Ya, why haven't you shown up yet? Are you hiding?"
Guan Ya ran side by side with him. Hearing the words, she subconsciously replied:
"I just entered the dungeon, and I encountered a bewitching demon. He wanted to molest me, but I killed him with one shot. Although my marksmanship and fighting skills are very strong, my experience value is too low. I encountered an evil profession.
You can still cope with it, but if you encounter two, you will definitely die.
"I might as well hide, stay still, and wait and see what happens. If I had known that the killing dungeon was so dangerous, I wouldn't have participated. Otherwise, I would be lying comfortably in the office, blowing on the air conditioner, and watching TV series."
She had an annoyed expression on her face.
What's going on with this woman? Zhang Yuanqing looked at her with strange eyes, almost suspecting that this Guan Ya was disguised in human skin.
A normal Guan Ya would laugh and say:
"I am a woman, of course I cannot move."
Run the wheel over his face.
"Sister Guan Ya, are you normal? Your brain was damaged by the cane just now?" Zhang Yuanqing said.
Guan Ya replied subconsciously: "I wasn't fooled. I used props to block it. If you mean speaking style, well, the price of the mask is that you can't lie and answer all questions."
Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized.
At this time, the sky was already half dark, and there was still a hint of stubborn green light in the sky. The two ran for a while, but they never saw the mountain ghost appear.
Mountain Ghost is from the Lost City camp, and Guan Ya is also from the Lost City camp. Could it be that Guan Ya's bad luck is the reason why he didn't meet the Mountain Ghost? Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but wonder.
Because of bad luck, the mountain ghost didn't come to save her?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanqing was not in a hurry and stopped.
Guan Ya also stopped and frowned: "What's wrong!"
As soon as she finished asking, she saw Yuan Shi taking out three props, namely a rattan armor, a pair of arm guards, and a pair of leg guards.
"This is the suit that the official loaned me. It is a low-level suit, but at the extraordinary stage, it is considered the best of the best." Zhang Yuanqing said:
"Sister Guan Ya, I plan to give it to you. This way you can better utilize your melee advantage. I have other trump cards. For me, this suit is just the icing on the cake."
When he said these words, he stared into Guan Ya's eyes with a sincere expression and sincere tone.
Give it to me. Guan Ya was stunned. She was a little unbelievable and looked into Yuan Shi's eyes.
His eyes are clear and sincere, seeming to contain intoxicating power.
Guan Ya's heart beat wildly, she suddenly looked away, lowered her head to pick up the suit, and put it on absentmindedly.
When she finished wearing it and checked the properties of the props, she discovered the terrible price.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
Guan Ya's eyes widened.
Zhang Yuanqing's face was full of confusion: "What did you say?"
Talking about being in heat, why didn’t you say it at such an important price!? Guan Ya took a deep breath, and was about to say it was nothing, but blurted out:
"Speaking of being in heat, why don't you tell me such an important price?"
Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized: "I think that in the face of killing copies, any price is insignificant."
Guan Ya was suddenly speechless.
In this case, you can only wear it all the time. Either you will pass the level or die in the dungeon. You can never take it off. She took another deep breath and pretended to be nonchalant.
But at this moment, Zhang Yuanqing's "innocent" voice came to mind:
"Sister Guan Ya, where do you live?"
"No. 291 Xinmen Road, Tianchen Apartment, Room 302 on the third floor." Guan Ya answered the question subconsciously.
Guan Ya: "."
The two quickly reached the signboard in the middle of the forest, and there were no further accidents along the way.
Most of the members of the Five Elements Alliance are still staying where they are, but the Night Wandering Gods and casual cultivators of the Taiyi Sect have disappeared. They must have gone to explore the depths of the central part.
Zhang Yuanqing stopped in front of the notice board and took out the red fruit prepared for Guan Ya from his pocket.
The reason why I didn't dare to give it in advance was because I was afraid that after Guan Ya changed sides, bad luck would lead to an attack by mountain ghosts.
After Guan Ya swallowed the red fruit, the two of them crossed the sign.
Zhang Yuanqing heard the mission prompt sound in his ear:
[Ding! Allies in the same camp have been detected. Do you want to form a team? The number of people in the team must not be less than fifteen and no more than twenty-four. 】
[Ding! Read out the ally’s spiritual realm ID to send out a team invitation. 】
[Ding! The side mission is being refreshed, please form a team.]
