Chapter 410: Nightcrawler
"It's so quiet today, and there are no troublemakers on the streets."
Angela walked out the door from inside the town's lord's house.
As the number of players grew, so did the size of the town.
Thanks to the existence of the Valley of the Dead, whether the undead have emerged has left the surrounding area uninhabited, otherwise the land alone is a matter of confusion.
The nameless town of today has actually long exceeded the scale of a 'town' in this era, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small town.
The wandering undead, which is a big problem for other settlements, are simply a walking perk for players in the town, and even ordinary townsfolk can be killed with a shovel.
Thanks to the expansion of the town, the specifications of the lord's mansion in Angela have gradually improved a lot, from a small dilapidated house in the past, to a small bungalow that looks like a little aristocratic residence.
"I started two high-intensity activities in a row, and everyone was a little tired." Vera came to him with a coat and said as she waited for him to put it on, "It seems that many people have gone on vacation to Trinia or the Western Continent. ”
As the player's original novice village, Angela did get a lot of interesting architectural drawings from Sivi through a system that was independent of most players.
However, no matter how interesting the facilities are, you will still get tired of playing dozens of times, and adventure is the eternal romance of players, so only a small number of players who want to have a good rest are still staying in the nameless town, and other players who can't stay idle have long been running around the world.
"Forget it, anyway, you can go to Tianya City when you have something......"
Angela muttered indifferently.
"You seem happy, huh?" Vera asked curiously.
"Can you see that? Indeed, more and more people have recently believed in the god of games, whether it is a small town or Tunaya, it has gradually developed, and even Lancaster, who has not changed his ways, is becoming more and more inclined to this side. Angela smiled and said, "Princess Lia is working hard, and I have to work harder...... Pain, Vera, the neckline doesn't have to be pulled so tightly here, I can't breathe! ”
"Sorry, a little rude," Vera asked unapologetically as she let go of her master's hand as if she was about to strangle herself, "So you're planning to go to the Lancaster Underground Station and go on a date with Her Royal Highness Princess Ria now?" ”
"What are you thinking, just to discuss how to expand the sphere of influence of the Church of the God of Games next...... After all, our Holy Maiden doesn't care. ”
Angela said with a smile in her eyes.
Walking out of the gate of the Western-style pavilion, the weather is just right, and the sun is shining on the street, which adds a warm feeling to the red brick street that is already quite a European fairy tale.
This beauty does not come out of thin air, but comes entirely from the continuous struggle of the players, and it can be said that every brick and tile here is accumulated by them with countless lives.
None of this is without meaning.
"As long as we don't stop, the Church of the God of Games will definitely continue to grow...... Maybe one day, everyone in the world will be able to live the same life as we do......"
Angela looked at the scenery of the town, but his eyes had already passed through this era, and he looked to the future with longing: "So I won't stop, Vera, you have to follow me." ”
"That's a matter of course." The girl replied without hesitation.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then laughed together.
"Hahaha, what I said just now doesn't feel like what I said, it's too hypocritical," Angela shook his head: "Let's hurry up, otherwise Mr. Vanke will complain again." ”
"I don't think Her Royal Highness the Princess will mind."
"Because she has been being pressed at home by Mr. Vanke lately to learn all kinds of knowledge about the crown prince, I peeked at her textbook last time, and it is simply not a human to learn, and discussing the development of the church is as relaxing as small talk."
The two walked and chatted, and when they came to the alley next to the resurrection stone, someone suddenly jumped out of the shadows!
No, it's not hiding in the shadows, it's the whole person diving into the shadows!
Is it a shadow creature?
Compared to Angela, who didn't react, Vera, as an ordinary player, immediately made a judgment after discovering that the other party was wearing a bright red name and a health bar called 'Nightkin'.
Out of player instinct, she went straight into the battle mode, and with a slight shake of her hand, a short bow appeared in her hand.
Even if there were no arrows on the rack, the girl still opened the bow directly, and suddenly the emerald green light immediately flowed on the bowstring, and condensed in an instant, turning into a translucent arrow and shooting out!
The girl didn't stop, but shot three light arrows in succession in the form of a series of arrows!
Vera's profession is a ranger-turned-jungle walker, but unlike Godan, as Angel's guard, she doesn't follow the path of beasts and shepherds, but is a hunter who fights purely with a bow and arrow!
After all, the beast affects the appearance, and the shepherd tree is a summoning stream, and she herself will become a weak point, which is obviously not conducive to protecting Angra, in contrast, with fast reaction and agile movements, although there is almost no group attack ability, but the hunting king with strong single lethality is the best choice.
The green arrows pinned down the black figure of the humanoid that leaped out of the shadows, causing it to let out a terrible scream, and it seemed that even shadow creatures were not immune to the arrows formed by the divine magic.
Vera cautiously approached her, but suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She jerked back, only to find that other humanoid shadow creatures had already burst out of the shadows and taken Angra hostage from behind!
"Let him go!" The girl shouted angrily and pulled her bow.
The shadow creatures immediately used Angela as a shield and hid behind him.
"Just do it and don't worry about me, I'm also a player!" Angela said loudly, but then was caught in the neck by a black shadow that spread from behind, unable to speak.
Vera hesitated.
Indeed, despite the peculiar genre, Angela is also a player recognized by the gods of the game, and theoretically resurrects after dying.
What's more, although the player has friendly damage, but this damage is deducted, and if you are ruthless, you may be able to kill those shadow creatures without killing Angela.
But even if her sanity knew that she could do this, she still couldn't do it: what if? What if Angela is a special being and can't be resurrected after dying?
Before the girl could make a decision, two more black shadows pounced on her, and Vera immediately attacked, tearing the two shadow creatures apart with arrows, but at this moment, Angela had already been dragged into the shadows by the other shadow creatures and taken away!
When players who heard the movement came to check on the scene, they could only see the girl crying in the alley......
