Chapter 18: The Black Beast. Chess game
The group shuttled through the lush jade forest, and Mo Jun played with the small ornaments in his hand at the end of the team, and the corners of his mouth rose to express his inner joy. The blue light of the pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info burst out from between his fingers, and Idric shook his head when he saw it: It's just a blue ornament, I haven't seen anything good.
However, Idric also admits that the probability of a green orb opening a rare item is no more than a single percentile.
γBeast Totem. Beo Wolfγ
[Quality: Rare.]
Type: Magic Necklace
Strength +1 Constitution +1
Special Effect: Wolf Fang - Increases weapon sharpness by 1 when you are fighting with a bladed weapon
"I think I was a hunter back then, until I was bitten by a Beo wolf in the knee." γ
Increasing the dual attributes and a little weapon sharpness, the very practical effect made Mo Jun immediately equip his first rare equipment ([Maggie Sister] does not count), a warm current came from the wolf claw style necklace on his chest, Mo Jun suddenly felt that his limbs were more powerful, and the cold light on the [Vicious Blade] sword on his waist was better than before.
Everyone walked quickly and didn't encounter any trouble, and suddenly there was a 'ding' sound, Mo Jun glanced at the terminal, and the secret passage finally arrived at the place.
[Main quest 1: The beginning of the hunting road.]
Content: Go to the depths of the Emerald Forest to retrieve a 'Relic' and return to the top of the Beacon Cliff
Task rewards and penalties: 600 space points, unlock the next stage of the task after completion. If you do not obtain the 'holy relics', 2,000 space points will be deducted from the trialist, and those who do not have enough points will be wiped out.
γSide Quests:
Kill the beasts that stand in your way on the way back, with rewards based on the difficulty and number of enemies.
"Tsk, this task is very intriguing." Idric leaned in front of Mo Jun and said, "And judging from the strength of the enemies here, this mission world is a rare world with its own strength system and special weapons, and the side quest will definitely be difficult." β
"Bring your own power system and specialty weapons? What is that? Mo Jun's curiosity was hooked by Idric, and he hurriedly asked.
Coughing a few times, Idric said loudly: "The 'vitality' in this world is not recorded in the exchange list of the main god space, so there will definitely be world exploration after this mission, and there will be a chance to get rare idle contribution points at that time." Moreover, the power of this 'Yuan Qi' is extremely versatile, and from my personal experience, it can be transformed into the two most mainstream forms of energy, magic and fighting energy, almost without loss, and the most important thing is that it is suitable for all weapons. If such a practical thing appears in the exchange list of the main god space, the price will be at least five figures! By the time we leave, the task world will definitely have to be much more difficult. β
Savoring Idric's words, Mo Jun nodded thoughtfully: "Experience it firsthand... It's to be beaten. β
Idric was choked to death by Mo Jun's sudden remark, and glared at him: "Don't interrupt." β
"As for the specialty weapons, they (pointing to the three girls in front of them) use a polymorphic tool that combines firearms and cold weapons. As for the manufacturing process, I don't know, but it should be related to the energy of 'Genki'. The main god's redemption list includes the 'God Eater' multi-dimensional 'Divine Machine', but the morphological conversion efficiency and fluency of its latest model are far inferior to their personal configurations. β
"The first person to eat crabs is often a combination of opportunity and crisis." Mo Jun said: "That's what it means." β
Idric nodded, "Yes, it's up to us how much we can get out." What's more, the power of 'Yuan Qi' can only be obtained by others opening the 'door' in the body. If you can't get this mission, I'm afraid you won't be here for a long time. β
As they spoke, the group finally arrived at the location of the ruins that Ruby had spoken, which was the ruins of a temple. In the center of the ruins, surrounded by fallen stone pillars and moss-covered boulders, there is a prominent platform: from a distance, it looks like something is placed on each platform. But when Mo Jun and his party arrived, they had already seen that someone had already taken the lead.
Because they were all freshmen in the same class, Ruby and Weiss walked out of the shadows of the bushes with a big bang, while Mojun and Idric, who were at the back of the group, stopped.
"What do you think about the 'Relic' and side quests?" Idric didn't give orders, but left the right to speak to Mo Jun, who was slightly stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "This kind of scene naturally needs to be covered by a senior like you who has experienced strong winds and waves, I..." β
"Hmph, that's a good shot." There were no outsiders, Idric patted Mo Jun on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't think I can't see what tricks you're playing, if you really show such harmlessness to humans and animals, hell." A few days ago, when I practiced at Nightingale's House, I started to prepare for a big game, don't forget, I know you have a demon... There's also a younger sister's. β
Mo Jun gently patted Idric's hand away, his face was gentle, and he said softly, "Which side is that senior?" β
"Ha, of course I'm helping you. It's a fool not to take advantage of it! β
====================== "Black Beast. The Chess Game ========================
"Hey boys, hurry up." Yang Xiaolong waved his hands to greet Mo Jun and Idric, who had just revealed their figures, and she was holding a chess piece in her hand, which could be seen from the appearance of a white knight.
"There are a lot of 'holy things' here, but some of them are empty." Yang Xiu showed off her harvest and urged: "You two should hurry up and choose one, you have to go back quickly, there is some dangerous aura around here." β
"Of course, there we go." Mo Jun looked around, except for a few freshmen of the academy who had already arrived, he didn't notice anything strange, he opened the terminal and took a look, and walked towards his teammates: "Weis, what chess piece did you choose." β
"Huh? Didn't you listen to Dean Ozpin's rules in the morning, and each group of two people brought back one piece to be considered qualified. This glorious mission is left to you. While combing the light blue ponytail, Weiss responded to Mo Jun, and the girl really didn't seem to have any intention of getting the chess pieces. Mo Jun shook his head and said secretly, it's just right, you don't have the task given by the main god, so I'll accept this chess piece.
Idric has just returned from the platform, and although he has completed the main quest, his brow is furrowed. Mo Jun knew that something was wrong at a glance, and hurriedly went up and asked, "What's wrong, your face is so bad." β
"Nope. It just feels like something isn't quite right. Idric rubbed his temples, but didn't say why. Seeing this, Mo Jun didn't bother anymore, and went to the table and took a knight chess piece that was the same as Yang (Yang Xiaolong, if you only call the name, it is Yang), but it was a black square.
"Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!h
A scream came from the depths of the forest, and the girls who were talking were startled and went on alert.
"Sounds like it's coming from here, oh no... There's movement in that direction too, what's going on? Yang listened, but was annoyed by the continuous movement, and just as the people in the ruins were at a loss, a huge black shadow rushed out of the bushes on the side.
The uninvited 'guest' was seen to be in the shape of a bear, huge and bulky, with white horns on his shoulders and a bone mask on his face that symbolized the killing beast.
"It's a Latin bear, this beast is clumsy, good at swinging and biting, it looks like it should be a common species." The eldest lady drew her bayonet sword and just set up her hand, only to see a muffled sound, the bear-shaped killing beast fell to the ground in response, and two figures came out from behind it, looking dressed as a freshman of the academy.
"Haha~ Nora came to report." One of them, a lively girl with orange hair and blue eyes, rushed towards the ruins, her seemingly weak body actually using a war hammer as a weapon, but Mo Jun let go of the surprise in his heart when he thought about Ruby's huge scythe. The other was a familiar sight: a slender boy with Chinese characteristics, dressed in a dark green and black-trimmed gown-style Chinese Qing Dynasty robe and horse coat, and white trousers. He has long hair with a ponytail combed at the back of his head and purple ends. The little brother with the oriental classical atmosphere was struggling to get up from the ground, and he didn't forget to shout at Nora here: "Nora, don't do this next time..."
"They weren't going to come 'on' the Latin bear, did they?" But a coquettish cry sounded: "Look at the sky!" β
In fact, there were already careful students among the crowd who noticed the growing shadows on the ground, and when they heard this shout, Mo Jun's heart trembled for no reason, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw a black unidentified object passing not far overhead, and the air currents it brought up were raging everywhere, and the dust was dispersed.
"Hey! My hair. The scene was already in chaos, and Weiss looked at the sky with her head covered, and the knowledgeable eldest lady quickly came to the conclusion: "It's the Shadow Crow!" What's going on today, don't come back to anything else..."
"Boom!!" A figure flew from nowhere, and after landing on the ground, it rolled a few times and came to the young girl with a confused head. And a message came from the tree: "There is a large killing beast attacking here in the northwest plain, it is recommended to transfer the battlefield immediately!" It's too narrow here! β
Yang punched the awakened Latin bear out of the air, smashed several trees, turned his head and said, "That's right! This is not enough space for those big guys to toss, our task is just to bring the relics back and leave immediately! β
β... Troublesome. Viss made up for the unfinished words just now, Mo Jun saw that the girl was stunned and quickly dragged her to avoid the black feathers falling from the sky, and the two followed Yang and Lubi in front of them to escape from this calamitous ruin.
The roar of the crows and beasts was endless, and it was actually biting the students who were returning all the way.
Beacon Cliff, cliff top.
Glinda looked at the new students fleeing in embarrassment, and couldn't help but look at Dean Ozpin, who was sipping tea, who was holding a small monitor and watching the students' live.
"Odin the Bear, the Shadow Raven, the Death Strider, and a pair of Taiji King Snakes in their direction... Their journey was a little too exciting, Dean, and it was beyond the scope of the freshmen. The blonde lady pushed her glasses and reminded Ozpin with some concern.
Hearing this, the dean put down the mug, shook his head and said: "I said that the freshmen of this class are very good, and this thing is not difficult for them, besides..." The task I gave them was not to kill the beasts. β
Glinda sighed and looked silently at the Emerald Forest at the bottom of the cliff.
