Chapter 230: Murder by a knife
To be honest, I'm glad I had an eye on Zeus and what they had to do, so I hid behind the rock wall and didn't go back to the nearest lord's area as originally planned to restore my status.
If I turn around and leave, I will definitely be surrounded somewhere, this Zeus is really a character, such a painful attack, did not make him lose his mind, but more clearly defined the opponent's positioning.
Lead the remaining Shaders to march quickly, preparing to wipe out the team that had just separated in the lower tiers, leaving only the team led by Zeus, and then slowly encroaching away.
Taking advantage of the piercing nature of the rock wall, the team of the Shaders quickly descended to the height, preparing to reach the cave where the team was about to arrive in advance, and come to an ambush with a two-sided attack.
But when I descended a certain distance, the Champion of the Shadows suddenly refused to continue his actions, and was indifferent to any orders I gave them.
Outside the rock wall, the footsteps had reached the expected location, and the crowd was very noisy, and just as I was quietly judging the enemy's situation, those Shady Fighters and the two bosses suddenly rushed out of the rock wall like they had drunk fake wine, and went directly towards the team, and I just watched in disbelief.
I didn't give the order??
At present, the only ones who can control the shadows are me and Jiaolong, if it is not my intention, then it must be Jiaolong's order.
Why would it suddenly interfere with my plans?
Outside, there was an instant battle, and the battle was already inseparable, and the dark ones rushed to the other side of the cavern, maintaining a state of trying their best to stop it.
Could it be that there is something behind this cave?
Thinking about it carefully, I recalled the secret room that Jiaolong had promised, if there was a secret room behind it that hid treasures, Jiaolong's intentions did make sense.
But now the situation is no longer in my control, even if I have the heart to lead the Shadows to draw their attention elsewhere, but it will not help, the Shadows have no control over me, once these teams hold on to Zeus and their help, the Shadows will inevitably be completely annihilated in this place.
But I ran back along the road from here to find the dragon to ask clearly, I am afraid that I will only be intercepted by Zeus and them on the way, and in a hurry, I can only sneak into the rear quietly.
As I walked out of the cavern, the targets of the Shadows suddenly turned to my side, and their surprising anger made them extremely ferocious, and they rushed to my side regardless of it, but the Olympians thought they were ready to flee again, and they desperately blocked them, and surrounded all the Shadows, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
I kept running along the dark road, and after the twisting tunnel, a stone gate appeared in front of me.
Here, it should be the secret room, and there is no hope of completing the task at all, so I can only find a way to get some benefits by myself, "Brother Jiaolong~, don't blame me for my treachery, it was you who made trouble first, and I was helpless." β
The stone gate was unusually hard, and I used two and a half sets of skills to finally break it, and the broken stone pieces peeled off layer by layer, breaking a hole that could accommodate two people at the same time.
I dared to light the torches when I entered it, and the light of the fire shone on the empty surroundings except for a calf-high platform in front of me.
Slowly walking across the platform, I was about to lift my legs and step up, when suddenly a hand grabbed my foot, I hurriedly broke free and took a few steps back, and checked with a torch, only to find that the edge of the platform was actually a fence similar to a bar, and countless hairy paws were stretching outward, like prisoners longing for freedom.
The torches couldn't see what was going on inside, but the hairy paws slowly quieted down, and then a vicissitudes of life came from inside, and it clung to the fence and looked up at me.
Goblin Elder Hirabri.
There are NPCs????
ββ¦β¦ Excuse me......, are you human? β
"Yes."
"Human......" He heard my affirmative answer, then paused for a moment, a little lost, but then looked up at me again, his eyes pleading, "Human, can you get us out?" We'll pay you. β
"Does the player Xingyu accept the mission: [Rescue the Cave Goblin]?"
These are cave goblins? Didn't you surrender to the dragon and gain power and become the shadows?
"Yes."
"Player Xingyu accepts the mission: [Rescue the Cave Goblin]."
γRescue the Cave Goblinsγ
Brief Description: Break the seal that imprisons the cave goblins and free them from the seal of the Deep Dragon.
Requirements: Defeat the Seal Entity [Sacrifice of the Shadow One] x1, [The Shadow One] x1.
Rewards: Black Gold Ore*10, Amber Stone*10.
"Wait, wait, wait! Don't worry, I'm a little blind! β
Interrupting the cave goblin's thanks, I struggled to gather my thoughts.
"Are you sealed here by the Deep Dragon? Why does it tell me that you are its subjects? β
My question provoked a sigh from the other side, and the goblin recounted their secrets in a faint voice: "I am the elder of this goblin tribe, the goblin tribe is very adaptable, and our family lives in this dark mine, although there is no daylight, but there are almost no other individuals here who can bully us, and we use the way of cultivating minerals to produce self-sufficient energy, until one day, the mine hidden underground is suddenly torn apart by the power of the earth, Smelling the abundant energy here, the Deep Dragon forcibly rushed in and slaughtered our people, but in order to ensure that the minerals could be cultivated continuously, he left behind half of his people, including me, and used coercion to force us to submit to him......"
Speaking of this, the Goblin Elder wept bitterly, and the pain was overflowing: "The sacrifices and leaders of the clan, with those who are timid and afraid of death, have followed the deep dragon, and have become dark ones who do not recognize their relatives, and have completely betrayed their souls, and we are imprisoned here, whoever decides to descend to it, can go out, but will become that filthy appearance......"
In this way, I understood what happened, dare to love this Jiaolong is not a bright and upright person, and he will actually do these indiscriminate things behind his back, it seems that the crack on the surface of the Ghost Horse Plain is caused by its invasion here.
But that's not what I care about, since the mission is to defeat the Priests and the Shadows, then I just need to sit back and enjoy their achievements now, and Zeus and their gang of workers will naturally complete it for me.
What I'm most concerned about now is to find the secret room that Jiaolong said and the method of cultivating minerals in the elder's mouth.
A sly smile involuntarily cracked at the corner of my mouth, "Then ...... you guys, do you know that there is a secret room here?" β
"The Chamber of Secrets? Isn't this the Chamber of Secrets? This is the most hidden place we used to be, usually used to punish the wrongdoers, and to worship our ancestors, there is no place more sacred than here, but it is ...... by the deep dragon."
"Okay, okay, don't say any more, I understand."
Brother Jiaolong, in vain I trust you so much, I can't imagine that you are such a dignified villain!
In this way, the so-called rewards are all fake! It's going to use me to drive out the invaders, then cross the river and tear down the bridge, and kill me in this secret room!
Thinking about it carefully, in fact, it was full of loopholes from the beginning, from beginning to end it only had one side, and it didn't even deliver a mission, which is completely different from the Goblin Elders, and people at least have a mission hint.
"Then ......, if I defeat the Shadows and the Sacrifices, you can come out, but if the dragon wants to kill you, what should you do?"
The elder shook his head, looking powerless: "We can't help this ......, we can't fight it at all, now we just plan to leave this cave where we have lived for a long time and find another place." β
"So, you don't know its strength? Isn't there a chance of beating it? β
This question made the elder ponder for a long time, and he said slowly: "That Jiaolong's true strength is immeasurable, but it seems to be in a state of injury, so he came to this hidden place to hide, and by the way, he recuperated and cultivated. β
If you ask anything else, the elders don't know anything.
I can believe what the elder said, if the Deep Jiaolong really has the strength to destroy everyone, I'm afraid it won't use these dark people and me, and its own efficiency in battle is definitely higher than mine, and the reason why it uses others is definitely because it has some scruples.
In other words, after sensing the strength of the intruder, it became worried.
The reverse reasoning can make Jiaolong dare not shoot head-on, which proves a point.
Zeus, they have the strength to fight against dragons.
This place, they will definitely not give it up, and when other forces come, it will only evolve into gang fighting, so the only combat power I can use at the moment is them.
"Elder, if I help you kill that dragon, can you teach me the secret method of cultivating minerals?"
Although he was a little greedy, but in the face of life, these were nothing, the elder nodded excitedly, tears flashing in his eyes: "No problem!" Absolutely! Human, if you can really kill that dragon and return us to a pure home, you will be the great benefactor of our whole clan! Not only will I grant you the method of cultivating minerals, but I will also give my daughter to ......."
"Stop, stop, forget this, I just need the secret method."
Do you want to marry your daughter to me? You're too outrageous, the leper swan wants to eat the golden toad,
β¦β¦ Even if I really bring it back, I can only raise it as a dog......
"Okay, I'll try it, and if I can succeed, I'll say if I can do it, but at least I can get you out, and if I can, I still hope you can help me."
The elder nodded excitedly: "Definitely!" Certain! Human, what plans and requirements do you have, just say! We're here to help! As long as you can save us, the secret method will be offered with both hands! β
"Player Xingyu triggers a hidden mission: [Defeat the ruthless ruler]."
γDefeat the Ruthless Rulerγ
Brief Description: Defeat Pscrill the Dragon.
Brief Description: [Deep Dragon Pscriel] is a defeated army that has fled from the dragon battlefield, it rules in this underground mine to do evil, defeat it, and completely save the natives.
Quest Tips: There are three clues in the mine, which can effectively reduce the power of [Deep Dragon Pscriel], find them, and better deal with the enemy.
Hidden missions are getting more and more interesting, and there are even mechanics for finding clues to weaken enemies.
Although having said that, I guess their combat effectiveness is useless, and the strengthened state is only like that of the dark ones, and the original strength is probably at the level of the dragon set.
After thinking about it for a while, I was still ready to ask something of practical significance: "Then ......, do you know what the dragon's moves are?" β
Although they were captured by the dragon, they didn't need to use the dragon's tricks to deal with monsters of this level, but the elder still had some eyebrows: "I don't know anything else, but the dragon can attract nearby elemental bodies to attack, which is why he lives near the underground river, because there is a natural water element for it to use, here is the underground, the fire element, the wind element, and the thunder element are almost none, even if some minerals contain a little, it will not help at all, and this move is [Elemental Fission], After it uses physical elements to attack the target, if the target does not escape its mana range within a certain period of time, those elements will detonate, and the power is extremely ....... β
"Ding."
"Player Xingyu obtains [Clue 1]: [Elemental Fission] of [Deep Dragon Pscriel], and continues to look for other clues in the cave, which can effectively reduce the ontological power of [Deep Dragon Pscril]."
"Human, that's all I know, if you can make the Deep Dragon weak, you can find a second clue."
This elder is really a key figure, not only has a lot of tasks in hand, but also can trigger so many conditions, if you follow Jiaolong's wishes and follow the rules step by step, I am afraid that I will never see these NPCs who are so deeply hidden in this life.
[Elemental Fission]: When there is a large number of [wind], [fire], [water], and [thunder] in one of the four elements around the self within 50 yards, Pscrill can channel the element, and use the elemental entity to deal a small amount of damage to all enemies within 200 yards of the surrounding area, and attach an elemental marker, after ten seconds, if the target does not exceed the cast range of the skill, Pscrill will detonate the elemental mark, dealing four times the initial damage to the target; If the number of individuals damaged by a single skill exceeds 50, it will exceed the current strength tolerance range of [Deep Dragon Pscriel], exposing its weaknesses.
[Clue 1]: Find a way to force [Deep Dragon Pscriel] to use the powerful [Elemental Fission] move, causing it to consume too much power and expose the rest of the clues.
β¦β¦
"Quick! This time, we'll have to wipe out all of the shady ones, including that despicable player! β
As the rapid march galloped through the mines, Zeus gave the order to die, and the raid must be successful.
When I arrived, the battle was in full swing, and the shadows were surrounded by a sea of people, relying on the blessing of the huge totem to resist desperately, but without unified command, they were just some brainless stupid creatures, and they couldn't even cooperate smoothly with their skills, but they recklessly attacked with big fists and big claws, like crazy women arguing in the vegetable market.
Zeus's participation in the war made the scales fall to one side, and the two saint-level bosses made him even more happy, and the unexpected harvest gave him a remedy expectation for this big move.
"The ranged profession gathers fire to that totem, destroys their buff effects, first clears the Dark Fighter from the periphery, and the two big heads are finally solved!"
The same team configuration, the upper and lower limits of combat effectiveness, completely depends on the leader's strategy, the strength of the Olympus people is undoubted, with the command of excellent managers such as Zeus, the dark ones have no strength to parry at all, and they can't even play good control skills, along with the huge corpses that fall down layer by layer, the number of dark fighters is decreasing sharply, and in less than an hour, only two bosses are left to fight on their own.
"Gather fire to kill that priest, some of the melee involves the Shadowy One, and uses negative outfits to minimize its threat!"
Poseidon, who died once, returned here, and the recyclable personnel were the player's biggest winning weapon, the Dark One Sacrifice and the Dark One fell one after another, bursting out a lot of brilliant equipment and materials, and the team that had been tired for a long time erupted into a cry of victory, and everyone celebrated excitedly.
Zeus rode his horse, enjoying the compliments of his men back and forth, and after a long run, he was a little tired, and dismounted, leaning against the wall and gasping.
Poseidon walked over with his staff, angry and helpless: "Sure enough, you are the most suitable guy to be a leader, I don't have your ambition and courage, if it were me, I would definitely not see such a rich harvest scene in this matter today." β
"Oh my God, I was a little surprised that you could say such words,......, how about the loot count?"
"One piece of platinum equipment, six pieces of dark gold equipment, a few pieces of rest of the equipment, and a number of gold coins, today is really the biggest harvest in the past month."
The small talk of the two leaders swept away the unpleasantness just now, and Poseidon stretched out his hand and pulled Zeus up: "By the way, did you kill that mysterious man?" β
Zeus suddenly woke up to the sudden question, his eyes widened, and he turned his head to the team and shouted, "Did anyone kill that despicable player in the scuffle just now?" β
There was a lot of discussion, but the answer was no.
"Whoosh!"
Three sword lights suddenly broke through the air from a distance, and Zeus easily intercepted the sword light with a backhand shield, and then only saw a figure fleeing quickly from the corner.
Enraged, he rolled over and got on his horse, his sword in his hand reaching in that direction.
"Chase! Be sure to kill him today! β
β¦β¦
"Player Xingyu completes the quest [Rescue Cave Goblin] and gets the reward: Black Gold Ore*10, Amber Stone*10."
The plan to lure the wolf into the house went so smoothly that I ran all the way with my head down, using all the acceleration, and then quickly hid in a hollow rock wall at the sharp turn that I had already checked, and quietly felt the rush of people outside.
After a sharp turn, it's the right direction.
The sound of running water was getting closer and closer, and Zeus, with a cold light in his eyes, rushed into the entrance of the cave first.
"Roar, roar, roar, ......!"
A terrifying roar came from within, and then a huge dragon's tail swept by, bringing down all the hussars in front, including Zeus.
They quickly got to their feet, their shields and weapons all aimed in that direction.
A pair of cold condensed eyes shook in mid-air, pulling out two cold lights that could not be dispersed.
