As a "temporary event" without notice, not many players can participate in time.
Compared with the dilapidated Frozen Water Port, players do prefer to live in Roseburg. After all, it is relatively developed here, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation are much more convenient... You can even do odd jobs to earn some money and update your equipment.
After all, even their lord already lives in Roseburg, so they no longer have the responsibility of guarding.
But after all, players have to return to Frozen Water Port every three days.
Not for anything else... just to brush the copy.
Fortunately, there are close to thirty players in Roseburg - and the four strongest players happen to be in Roseburg right now.
Currently, the only one still living in Frozen Water Port is Salvatore.
His laboratory is just below the City Lord's Mansion... It won't be easy to move it for a while, and he is about to leave anyway.
In fact, after he got the bone and blood trigger of Lord Skeleton, he could already return to the Black Tower of the Swamp.
The reason why Salvatore did not leave immediately was just to avoid leaving this mess to Annan.
Salvatore believed that he owed Annan something - dragging Annan into a fight that had nothing to do with him without authorization. And this guilt even became deeper after learning Annan's true identity...
...But Annan didn't think so. He never felt that Salvatore owed him anything, and even felt that he had used him so many times that he felt a little uneasy about his conscience.
But Salvatore was very determined.
He had already made up his mind that when Annan went to the royal capital, he would return to the Black Tower of Zedi along the way, so that he could have company on the way.
Of course, Annan felt that he might simply feel lonely on the road.
But even without Salvatore's help.
Annan also called another helper when he was getting the equipment...
——Kafni Noah.
Kafni, who was left alone in Roseburg by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince Albert who was very fond of him, can now be regarded as Annan's chief bodyguard.
She lives in the room next to Annan.
After advancing to Silver, the biggest difference is that the "perception" and "will" attributes can be realized.
The extraordinary perception ability of the dragon-capturing monk allows Kafni to detect every move in Annan's room through a wall. Whether there are thieves or assassins, she can directly "perceive" them as if she sees them with her own eyes.
location.
Now, Kafni was taken to the side of the warehouse by Annan - she was sensing the traces of the curse in the warehouse from a distance with her eyes closed.
"I do feel it..."
Kafni closed her eyes slightly and whispered: "There are remnants of rituals there, very fresh... and there are many kinds."
"Can you detect the type of ritual?"
Annan asked.
Kafni shook her head: "The result won't be very accurate. There must be an experienced person inside. He used lead plates or lead powder to treat the walls... If I didn't advance to silver, even if I was a monk
There is no trace of the ceremony."
"Give me a rough estimate of the quantity."
Annan urged in a low voice: "If you are not sure whether there is any, just calculate it as if it is there; if the number can be more or less, just calculate it as if it is more."
After hearing Annan's instructions, Kafni closed her eyes again and felt quietly.
"...I feel the smell of 'bones', 'dead', 'fear', 'betrayal', 'shadow', and 'blood'. I'm not sure how many summons are in it, and I don't know which of these smells are
Materials, which are influences, which are summons... But to be on the safe side, be prepared to have up to seven extraordinary enemies."
Kafni said seriously: "If there are more than two Silver-level enemies... I may not be able to protect you."
When she said this, she glanced back at the gathering players and whispered in Annan's ear: "If the battle situation is unfavorable, can we let them cut off the rear? In that case, I am confident that I can help your highness delay it for a while.
"
...it's okay, it's okay.
It would be better to say that Annan summoned the players here because he was mentally prepared to allow them to stay behind just in case.
From this point of view, Kafni and Annan thought of going together.
But in front of the players, Annan naturally couldn't give in so easily.
The character of "Annan" on the player's side is a future prince who is cold on the outside but hot on the inside, firm-willed, responsible and wise - how could he give up without fighting?
"it does not matter."
Annan patted Kafeni's head gently, feeling the warmth on Kafeni's head, and whispered comfort in her ear: "I have one more time for 'that' - it won't be dangerous.
"If the battle situation is really unfavorable...I will use it."
--Yes.
Although Annan's equipment now is not as comprehensive as what Dafufu brought with him at that time...but he at least brought the half-finished Philosopher's Stone with him.
In addition, Annan also put on the Elf Leather Gloves, the "Barrier-Breaking Right Arm" and the "White Guillotine". He also put the "Blooded Kitchen Knife" in the bag he carried.
The main reason why he didn't take out the kitchen knife directly was because the "Paint Breaker" curse on the kitchen knife might make Annan passive——
[Picture Breaker: If the holder sees a portrait of a middle-aged woman while holding a "bloody kitchen knife", he must throw the kitchen knife within three seconds, otherwise the holder himself will be injured by the kitchen knife]
What they want to attack is a warehouse - and the owner of the warehouse is a ritualist.
What is needed for the ceremony is often some weird and uncommon things. Annan dare not say that there are absolutely no "portraits of middle-aged women" in this warehouse.
And if he saw this painting when he entered the warehouse with a kitchen knife, it would be equivalent to being instantly disarmed by the enemy.
It is better to hide it and use it as a disposable throwing knife at critical moments. Because this kitchen knife has a very powerful and easy-to-use cursed "active throw":
[Active Throwing: When this item is thrown, it is like being cast on the command school spell "Active Throwing" of the same name. It will automatically search for enemies in a small area]
In the previous battle with Fufu, it didn't come in handy simply because it was just an ordinary kitchen knife...it wouldn't have any effect on Fufu.
If it flies over, it is sent.
He might even be caught by Fufu and thrown back...
After all, the cursed object does not recognize its owner.
And being hit by the kitchen knife thrown by Fufu might be a direct fatal injury to Annan...
But the current enemy is an extremely fragile human being.
Not even an extraordinary person.
Then, this kitchen knife has its meaning.
Now Annan is holding a sledgehammer in his right hand and a guillotine in his left hand. He looks extremely fierce - if you ignore his size and face.
Even though Annan had a sullen face and acted like "I'm super fierce now", the players just whispered to him and pointed secretly:
"——To be honest, it's a bit cute."
"——The milk is fierce and the milk is fierce."
"——Don't do this, Annan can smash your dog's head with one hammer."
"——Even if he beats me into powder with a hammer, he can't stop me from thinking this way! I do this for love and truth!"
"——Okay, please stop it, it's already very embarrassing..."
Looking at the extremely lively forum, Si Anqi and Citalopram felt a sense of "What, I am actually playing a game" after a long absence.
After the players gathered together, Annan commanded in a deep voice: "I'm breaking the door, and then you go in first, and work in pairs to make the initial contact with the enemy. After the enemy contact is completed, Kaifni and I will kill one by one from the side of the battlefield.
enter.
"Remember, on the basis of ensuring your own safety, give priority to attacking summoned objects. There is no need to kill them completely, the main purpose is to hold them back. There is a trap in front of the warehouse, and you can also force the enemy to move there - Kafu and I
Ni will attack the ritualist directly.
"Then, get ready-"
After Annan finished speaking, he raised the sledgehammer in his hand.
If this hammer were not just a hammer but a stick, it would be an eyebrow-level stick. But if the hammer were included, Annan's height would appear to be modest.
The next moment, Annan vigorously waved the "barrier-breaking right arm" in his hand.
When it attacks the "wall", it can gain a temporary strength bonus of ten points.
And this means -
Annan smashed it with all his strength, and the huge vibration made the ground tremble.
The second hammer made the side wall of the warehouse full of cracks.
The moment the third hammer fell, a huge gap that was as tall as a person and four to five meters wide was instantly created. A large amount of masonry and debris flew inward, and dust flew up——
As the walls of the warehouse collapsed inwards, the players filed in, fighting in with red eyes!
Yes, they heard it very clearly. There are many "summoned creatures" here, and others can kill them at will.
Although it only needs to be delayed...but if you defeat it directly, it will definitely be no problem, right?
——Players have watched the live broadcast before.
Summoning creatures will give you a lot of experience!
