Once the scope of the Dark Gate grows, there will be several times the number of monsters that will be teleported at the same time compared to the current number to support each area in time.

Players can't kill all the monsters.

Knowing that in this expansion, the existence of monsters is like the wild monsters they encounter in the wild area on weekdays. It's just that the monsters will refresh regularly, and the monsters are irregular, and the number of monsters has also increased several times compared to the wild monsters.

The endless number of monsters makes players quite powerless. So when the word about capturing the city came out, many players still had doubts.

Nord Stream also knew that the other idle players who came here at this time were more or less here for experience. There is an 80 percent chance that a person, a team, or a team will die if they come to such a far area.

But unlike these big guilds in the Machine Age, at least the danger is reduced to twenty percent. Moreover, at such a distance, the level of monsters should be quite high, and the Dark Gate will also continuously teleport monsters, which satisfies the player's desire to brush up on experience.

"Let them stop looking for someone yet. ”

Lollipop said at this time to [Chenxing Fenglone], who was in charge of the rescue operation.

Chen Xingfeng scratched his head and looked at Wei Shengmo and Beixi. It's not easy for him to make a decision. Although Lollipop is the captain, since the two of them are here, they naturally need to ask the opinion of one of the two of them.

Nord Stream: "Your people, you say." ”

Wei Shengmo: "There is no need to search for the time being, send these people to the ground for resettlement first." Let the people on earth answer it. ”

"Yes. ”

Many buildings in the underground black market have been destroyed, and the vacant land is also occupied by rubble and wood, and at a glance, all that remains is a pile of rubble. There is no extra space to accommodate NPCs.

Lollipop looked around, the black fog gradually thickened, I don't know if it was close to the dark door or some other reason, the air here was more suffocating.

If you don't pay attention, you can be swept into a dark vortex. Lollipop thought, raised his hand and waved his cane, dispersing the purification that spread around several people, and brushing away the black qi little by little.

"Where is this dark door?"

Lollipop: "There's nothing to look out for in this place." Beibei, should we change our minds and continue the search?"

"It seems that these monsters are also very cautious. ”

"Naturally, be cautious. "Nord Stream has no thoughts yet. The main reason is that the demonic fog in this area is too strong, not to mention that the vision is affected, and the perception will be weakened.

If the Dark Gate was nearby, it would be possible to see the shadow of the monster quickly. It's just that after they cleaned up a wave, not a single monster appeared.

This situation also makes Nord Stream wonder.

Normally, low-level monsters passing through the Dark Gate will not be affected at all, just because the Dark Gate is of a low level, and the number of teleportations in a wave is limited. Intermediate monsters will only be affected when they pass through, and they will be able to instantly return to their original strength when they exit the Dark Gate. Monsters above the advanced level, because their own magic power is strong, and the level of the Dark Gate cannot be connected, so forcibly crossing the door requires a certain price.

The last thing the demons lack is low-level monsters.

Even if the Dark Gate is a regular wave of teleportation, then a lot of time has passed, and the number of these monsters is decreasing, but not increasing.

At this point, Nord Stream is very puzzled.

After thinking about it carefully, Xu is monsters sensed their purpose, and now they no longer teleport, but let the monsters retreat to the demon realm in a big way, closing the dark door.

In this way, after some camouflage, they may not be able to detect the door.

When they all ran out of patience and left, it was the time for their monsters to take over the city.

Nord Stream will not underestimate the IQ of a high-level monster or lord level of the other party.

Maybe it's really possible, that's why the army of monsters has been missing for a long time. Taking a step back is also a foolproof strategy.

"The Dark Gate is very important to them, especially the portal that has been built at this stage and has increased in strength, it almost took a lot of effort on the part of the monsters. ”

"They should know the purpose of our actions, and they have already come up with a countermeasure. ”

Several people looked at each other.

Eternal Glory raised an eyebrow, "You mean, we can't find the Dark Gate because the monsters are hiding?"

"Yes. ”

The Thousand Army was surprised, "Are monsters that smart?" ”

"It's a race that wants to occupy this world, and it's ambitious, and it's ridiculous to say it if it's just force. ”

The army of 1,000 touched its nose. "If it's really all by force, you don't need to think about it. ”

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be good to just come out with the strongest existence and kill everyone. It also costs the extermination of one race after another. ”

Thousand-Man Army: "Okay, okay, you're right. So what do you do now?"

"Isn't that just the beginning of the discussion? What's the hurry?"

The army of thousands is silent. "It's better to discuss it here than to have someone search for it. No matter how much the other party hides the dark door, there are loopholes. It's impossible to be completely undiscovered. ”

"You don't know how to hide, just go and search, what can you find?"

The Thousand Army originally wanted to say that the enchanting leaned on him and stretched out her hand to pinch him on the back. What's the point of arguing with them?

The thousand-man army was in pain, twitched the corners of his mouth but quickly calmed down, and looked at the lollipop them. "I've made my old mistake again, don't care. You say, "We'll wait." ”

Eternal Glory glanced at him, fingers tapping on his arm and saying nothing.

The Eternal City doesn't care about anything, the army of a thousand does have this problem. I like to argue with others on the position of having different opinions.

It's much better now.

A few people have understood, but now they don't bother to care. While discussing, Chenxing Fengshan trotted over.

"Team leader. ”

Wei Shengmo stared at him, and Chen Xingfeng took the initiative to speak: "There is an NPC over there, saying that he wants to meet us in charge, so..."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

This NPC can also take the initiative to ask to meet the player, and it seems that it has a mission.

Chenxing Feng led the people to find the NPC.

It was an old man with gray hair.

On the left and right, there were young men in bronze knight's uniforms holding his hands, this old man, it seemed that he had some identity.

"Mr. Gomez, this is my boss. Chenxing Fengshan introduced Wei Shengmo, and then introduced Beixi. "This is the president of our union. Nord Stream. ”

With indescribable gratitude on the old man's face, he took a trembling step, and then bent down slightly, Beixi looked at it and hurriedly stopped it. "Old man, you don't need to do this. ”

"No, no, no, warrior. You've rescued you from the monsters, and no matter what, you need me to finish this ceremony. ”

Nord Stream is still blocking.

He put his fist on his chest and said to them, "This is what we are supposed to do as citizens of Calance." The old gentleman was serious. ”

The old man was very persistent.

"To us residents of Corock, you are our heroes. It was the warriors who rescued us and freed us from the captivity of the monsters. This great favor will be remembered by all the residents of Keyan City forever. ”

The old man bowed to the people of Nord Stream, and all the NPCs behind him also bowed their heads and bent down. The kindness is unforgettable, even if they are NPCs, they seem to know the word "gratitude".

"Mr. Gomez is the lord of Corock City?"

Seeing that he was accompanied by a bronze knight by his side, Nord Stream had some guesses. If it's a city lord, I don't know what tasks I'll receive.

The old man's body trembled, and then he shook his head, his expression disheartened, even sad.

"It's not. ”

The two words seemed to be uttered with all their might.

A bronze knight on the side said, "Lord Gomez is the previous lord of Koyan City. The current lord of Keyan City is Lord [Stexiu], but..."

"When the monsters invaded our city, the adults sacrificed themselves to protect the city. The Bronze Horseman's face was also sad.

"But despite this, Keyan City still didn't hold on. ”

The monsters took over, and all the inhabitants were taken into the underground black market and imprisoned. What is the significance of the sacrifice of the city lord?

Humans are no longer the same as they were, but monsters are no longer the same monsters they were.

"Those monsters took us to the underground black market, and put us in underground cells. Every once in a while, a group of people would be taken out and escorted to the Dark Gate. ”

Hearing this, Beixi hurriedly asked, "Then do you know where the Dark Gate is?"

Gomez: "I don't know. ”

The crowd was silent.

Is that just an apology to them?

Gomez spoke again, "I don't know the language of the demons, so I don't know the location of that gate. But I know that there is a man in Corock who can understand the magic language, and understand the structure of the Dark Gate. ”

The crowd was amazed.

"What's that guy's name, where is he now?"

Gomez shook his head, "His name is Gia, and I don't know where he is now. He's being held in this place with us, and he's probably still being held in a different cell, or..."

Or they had already fallen victim to the Blood Sacrifice of the Dark Gate.

This news is enough for them to see hope.

Have people send away NPCs such as Gomez.

The Nord Stream gave the order, and the rest of the members continued the rescue operation. And find an NPC named [Gia].

They also don't know how many cells there are. It can only be said that one was found, each cell can accommodate hundreds of people, and I don't know what kind of technology it is, after establishing this black market under the casino, countless more cells can be built underneath, and the bottom of this area is still hard, and there is no sign of collapse at all.

Hongjiao led a team and soon found a larger cell near the west. Walking down the stairs, everyone turned on the magic lamp, and the lights illuminated the entire area, and there was a commotion, and there was a lot of sound of hitting the iron railing.

The men were separated by irons, and several of them were kept in a small area, like a cell. I was held in this place for days on end, without sunlight, water, or food.

As soon as the light passed, almost everyone covered their eyes uncomfortably.

In the eyes of the Red Jiao, these NPCs now look like zombies.

It's horrible.

The red Jiao approached, and those people avoided it in fear.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a monster, I'm human. I'm here to get you out. ”

Skeptical.

"I've heard that monsters disguise themselves as us. ”

In a word, the commotion that had just started calmed down again. The people who were taken out by the monsters before have never come back. They knew in their hearts that if the other party was really a monster in disguise, then there would be no turning back.

Hongjiao didn't want to bother with his lips either.

"Give them a purification, dispel the demonic energy. ”

This was addressed to the pastors in the ranks.

In the next second, the holy light shone brightly, and the entire cell was filled with a warm and holy light.

Crying erupted.

"Blessed by the god of war, we have finally ushered in the light. ”

The thieves opened the locks one by one, and those NPCs were questioning their identities, and Hongjiao didn't want to bother to explain, so it was the best way to let the priest have skills.

After all, monsters don't know divine magic.

Hongjiao walked to the exit of the cell, and when one of the NPCs came out, he asked loudly.

"Is there anyone named Gia, or is there anyone who knows Gia. ”

NPCs either shake their heads, or say "haven't heard of it". Because it saved them, it will give them some reaction.

"Is this man already dead? ”

I asked 100 people, but none of them knew his whereabouts, and even more did not know this person.

Gomez couldn't lie to them?

As for the other teams, after rescuing several of the inhabitants of the cell, some of them entered the crowd and asked loudly, "Gia, is Gia not here?" He is needed to retake Coiam City. ”

The NPCs are also talking about it.

"Haven't you heard of this man?"

The lollipop squatted in front of several children, who shook their heads dumbly and said in a milky voice, "There is no Gia, but there is Jill." He's Jill!"

Pointing to the black-haired milk doll, he said.

So Najill looked innocently at the lollipop with a pair of cute big eyes.

Lollipop couldn't help but laugh.

Forget it, these kids probably won't know.

When I got up to leave, I suddenly felt that the hem of my skirt was being pulled. The lollipop couldn't help but pause, and when he looked back, he was a cute child, about six or seven years old.

He tugged at the corners of his lollipop's skirt, and his emerald green pupils were very beautiful.

"What's wrong?"

"What are you looking for in Gia?" The child's voice is very clean.

Lollipop was stunned, "It's a very important thing, it's about this city." ”

He looked up at her with emotion in his eyes. "If you find him, can you kill all the monsters?"

"That's right. Lollipop was overjoyed.

The child's eyes became firm, and he pulled at the corner of her skirt, "You come with me." Then he let go and slipped into the crowd.

Lollipop turned his head to Nord Stream and shouted to them, "Beibei, there is a discovery!"

The boy stuck his head out of the crowd again, "Not too many." ”

With that, he slipped into the crowd.

Lollipop took out a flag, held the silver flag high, and hurriedly followed.

Despite the noise, they still heard the cries of lollipops in Nord Stream.

"Keep up. ”
