Chapter 270: Worm Island Chapter (10)

Directly east of Worm Island, a silver-white sword glowed like a comet, followed by the sound of the collision of gold and stone.

A white robe is better than snow, and a little cold shines on the stars.

This man danced with a silver-white long sword in his hand, his steps were agile, his body was elegant, his clothes swayed, and the sword tassels fluttered in the air. Such a free and easy posture, but with a swift attack like wind and thunder, a sword swept over, and the yellow-green weeds around him half a human height suddenly brushed down a section lower.

What stood against the silver-white sword was not a pair of swords, spears and clubs, but a pair of red blades with jagged barbs.

This man in white is fighting a praying mantis alone! The body of this praying mantis is one meter long, the whole body is dark red, and there are golden cloud patterns on its body, which is the one that flew over the heads of Jiang Ling and the three of them before, preying on dragonflies.

The other two were watching the battle from the sidelines, although the man in white had to fight against a praying mantis so fiercely, but the two of them didn't feel that this man's strength was inferior at all, because they understood that this mantis was enough to rival the strength of the Heavenly Transformation Middle Realm.

One of them had short brown hair, wore a dark blue dress with a white crane embroidered on the background, and had a scar on his left shoulder, thanks to which the praying mantis had been made.

The three of them naturally saw a group of dragonflies being expelled by the praying mantis, but the three of them did not find a suitable way to hide, nor did they expect that after a group of dragonflies flew over, the praying mantis suddenly fell and attacked, and in a short exchange, they cut the man, and almost cut his throat.

The brown-haired man sprinkled a little powder on the wound on his shoulder, and then saw that the man in white hadn't taken down the mantis for a while, so he raised the short knife in his hand and said, "I'll help him." ”

"No need, he said he would come by himself, and if he wanted to come with his position in the standings, there would be absolutely no problem." He was stopped by another man, who watched the man in white fighting the praying mantis, while also looking around vigilantly from time to time. He was on the fat side, loyal and honest, with only a pair of slightly squinted eyes that shone with a cunning light.

This person's name is Huo Liang, and he was on the same team as Jiang Ling in the first main match, that is, the ice mage who deliberately hid it and was forced to show his true strength in the end.

The man with the wound in the shoulder is named Prett, a European who is not very lucky, ranking in the top 300 in the standings, but in fact, he has not played against strong people a few times in these battlefields, so that he has always felt that his strength is not much worse than the people at the top of the standings.

And this time he was fortunate to match two players who were on the standings, Huo Liang was ranked one hundred and seventy at this time, he had good potential, and more importantly, he was scheming. The only problem is that he often calculates his teammates, which leads to the jealousy of some people, the most typical example is Bobber, who spared no effort to gather his teammates to kill him first in a battle. Others may not hold a grudge as much as Bobber, but after all, they have a bad impression of Huo Liang, and if they are hostile, they will show no mercy to him, and if they are teammates, they will also guard against him.

Fortunately, although three knockout rounds have passed, there are still as many as 500 players, and not every game can meet acquaintances, for example, the two teammates this time are new faces.

If Huo Liang's ranking of one hundred and seventy is still not dazzling, then the man in white in front of him is a master who has always been among the best and is as dazzling as the stars.

Pratt watched the other party fight with the blood-colored mantis with ease, and remembered that he had just been slashed by the mantis in embarrassment, which was obviously enough to see the gap between the two, but he was unwilling to accept this.

The praying mantis had just suddenly fallen from the sky and attacked him, and he was only caught off guard before being slashed in the shoulder, if he gave himself time to prepare, he would definitely be able to easily defeat this praying mantis.

Seeing that his standings are so dazzling, but he still has to fight so many rounds against a praying mantis, if you want to shoot with all your might, you can do it to the same extent as him, right?

Pratt thought so in his heart, and his heart naturally balanced a lot.

He is like a kind of person who often appears in our lives, they are overly conceited, have low eyes, always do not feel that they are worse than anyone else, they are not used to seeing the people around them reach a higher position than themselves, and often attribute the other party's victories or excellent results to better luck than themselves, or the objective conditions are stronger than themselves, or even "that is, I don't have all my strength, otherwise I will definitely be able to surpass him" This kind of childish and resentful reason.

One of the advantages of such qualities is that they are able to effectively regulate their mental balance and have the courage to catch up with the strong.

There are too many shortcomings, and the most important point is that he can't clearly understand what the real difference between himself and the other party is.

It's hard for them to understand that there are some people who they can't catch up with anyway.

The sword fluttered, and a moment later it cut off one of the mantis's arms, and the mantis saw that the situation was not good, and flapped its wings and was about to flee, but the long sword swept across as if it had eyes, and landed accurately on its neck, cutting off its head.

The headless mantis corpse also flapped its wings and flew upwards for a while, before landing crookedly on the ground.

The man in white exhaled lightly and withdrew his sword back into its scabbard.

He squinted his eyes and said softly with a shallow smile on his face, "The shell of this insect is harder than the armor of the Rosen Empire." ”

"Just kill it." Huo Liang stepped forward, picked up the severed sword foot, laughed, and said approvingly: "It's really strong, or your swordsmanship is amazing." ”

The man in white still smiled slightly, and glanced at Huo Liang indifferently.

Huo Liang's heart trembled, and he inexplicably felt that the pair of narrowed eyes seemed to be seen through by his own disguise at once.

The man in white turned his head very normally and said, "Okay, let's move on, the main quest has been triggered, we have to hurry." ”

"How is this main quest triggered because of this praying mantis?" Pratt asked curiously.

The man in white said: "Probably not, I guess the other player triggered some conditions, and the main quest is for both sides to appear together." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Pratt felt that it made sense, and said, "It seems that the other party has come into contact with that Qi family elder." ”

"It's the most likely, but it's not absolute." The man in white had always spoken softly, with a sense of composure.

"The main quest clearly tells us not to provoke centipedes, butterflies and longhorns, but this praying mantis is so powerful." Huo Liang muttered.

The man in white responded: "This praying mantis has the strength of a martial artist who is not inferior to the Heavenly Change Middle Realm, although it is very strong, it is still within the range of what we can deal with. ”

Speaking of this, Pratt naturally understood the meaning, and hurriedly interjected: "In other words, what we should not provoke in the task prompt is an existence that has an absolute threat to us. ”

"Hmm." The man in white replied casually and continued to walk.

Jiang Ling and the three of them received the task of protecting Qi Hongyi from Worm Island safely, and the task of the three of them as opponents was naturally to kill Qi Hongyi so that he would never be able to leave the island.

At first, the three of them also walked forward from a beach, and there was a small boat on the side of the beach, and they found a note on the boat. There was a crime written on the note, like a wanted case for Qi Hongyi's death.

"Qi family

Elder Qi Hongyi, who is in charge of the Qi family business house in the four southern counties of Yichuan Kingdom, has relied on his family power and his own heavenly changes to cultivate his authority for more than ten years, acting recklessly and despising the government. Three years ago, the only son of the county was beaten to death by him on the street, and the county went to the imperial city to avenge the emperor, but was also intercepted and killed by him on the road. He secretly opened two green buildings, and forcibly forced girls from good families to become prostitutes many times, and most of those who did not comply were brutally killed by him. Such a person who has done a lot of evil deeds still wants to take over Decheng and confront my Divine Court, which is simply an unforgivable sin, and it must be punished to show the light of my Divine Court. ”

This paragraph of accusation and sentence is concise and clear, introducing Qi Hongyi's evil deeds, and also showing that the divine court must kill him.

When the main quest wasn't triggered, they didn't know which side they were following, and now they naturally understood that this violent and unbridled Qi family elder was their enemy. At the same time, it also shows that this time the Divine Court is their ally.

With no other clues, they headed from the beach to the center of the island, where it took them nearly ten minutes, killing beetles and grasshoppers on the way, and then they came across the mantis.

It was also the main quest that suddenly sounded when the praying mantis flew in, which made the three of them mistakenly think that the main quest triggered by the arrival of the praying mantis at first, but now they have killed the praying mantis, and the content and hints of the main quest have nothing to do with this praying mantis, and let the three of them understand that the activation of the main quest should be for another reason.

But in any case, the main quest has been triggered, and the three of them naturally need to continue to move forward until they meet the people in the Divine Court and join them to form an alliance. Or if you encounter Qi Hongyi, you can directly work together to kill him.

Huo Liang, who habitually pretends to be stupid, feels that this man in white who has been smiling all the time is not a master who is easy to fool, and he no longer disguises himself too much as a simple and shy image, but he is also silent.

The man in white looked ahead and whispered as if talking to himself: "Hiding is a clever strategy to reduce your presence, but this is a team game after all, and I think it's important to work together honestly." ”

Huo Liang's face changed slightly when he heard this, and then he turned a deaf ear.

Pratt turned his head and glanced at the two of them, and said, "Of course, you have to cooperate honestly, after all, no matter how strong your individual strength is, it is impossible to turn the tide of the battle with one person, right?" ”

These words were a little jealous, and naturally they were also aimed at the man in white, but his expression remained unchanged, and he nodded: "That's right." ”

Huo Liang snorted lightly and said, "Tell me what to do next?" ”

Pratt hurriedly said: "There are too few clues in this game, and the main quest is also triggered in a vague way, if you want me to say, let's take a walk around the center of the island." ”

Huo Liang pursed his lips disdainfully, but he didn't let Pratt see it, he turned his head to look at the man in white and asked, "What do you think?" ”

He said gently, "Then listen to him." ”

"That..."Huo Liang was a little surprised when he heard this, then thought for a moment, and nodded as well: "Okay." ”

The three of them turned around and walked towards the holy mountain, and only three minutes later, the gray robe appeared in the sight of the three of them.

"Sure enough, there's Skywalker." The man stood still, looking at the three men.

Huo Liang's nerves tightened when he saw this person, and Pratt was also holding a knife in his hand, only the man in white spoke: "Are you from the Divine Court?" ”

"What's your mission this time?" The man in gray asked coldly.

"Kill Qi Hongyi." The man in white told the truth, and then asked, "I think you've already met the other three Skywalkers when you asked such a question." ”

The man in gray nodded; "That's right."

"Then you can trust us." The man in white smiled indifferently, clasped his fists and said, "Respected Lord of the Divine Court." ”
