Chapter 201: Tree Transformation Technique
Sherlock thought about a lot of plans along the way, how to ensure the safety of the NPC after finding him, after all, this quest lasts for 24 hours, and it is obviously impractical to avoid the tracking of other players all the time, so instead of passively resisting the attacks of others, it is better to lure the snake out of the hole and strike first.
Two hours later......
A half-orc thief cautiously walked through a bush, glanced at Kodek hiding between two trees, and began to sneak closer.
This time his luck exploded, and the excitement in the thief's heart was hard to suppress.
As soon as he killed someone, he saw the green smoke and the smell of meat wafting in the distance, and he thought it was a rookie player cooking without knowing whether he was alive or dead, but he didn't expect to follow the trail and see that it was the target NPC of the dungeon, and there was no one around.
This NPC's heart is really big, knowing that he is being hunted down by so many people, and he is still in the mood to make a fire and barbecue meat, this is really the system that wants to make him rich.
By the time he moved within 5 yards of the NPC, the thief's pace was already in a hurry, and he was almost about to fall out of the stealth state.
Right now, as soon as he stepped behind the other party's back, the thief was about to stab out his two daggers, but suddenly there was a heat under his feet, and a flame rose into the sky, enveloping him from the bottom up.
"It's not good, it's a trap." The thief also knew that he had been ambushed, and just as he was about to retreat, he received two blows to the head and heart at the same time, and left the game before he could react to what was happening.
Watching the orc melt away, the two figures turned into two trees again, while Kodek continued to roast the burnt piece of snake meat as if nothing had happened, and everything returned to its previous state.
These two figures are naturally Sherlock and Mikasa, and this is the 18th player they have killed since finding an NPC.
After learning that Mikasa had also learned the art of arbore, Sherlock instantly thought of this tactic, using the smell of meat and smoke to attract nearby players, and when the other party stepped into the carefully prepared trap, it was when they bared their fangs to hunt their prey.
This tactic has been tried and tested repeatedly, and in the face of the super high output of the two, even some heavy armor battles cannot escape the fate of being killed in seconds, especially Mikasa's flame trap, which is very impressive.
This level 20 skill Sherlock has also been seen in the strategy.,But in terms of power, it's exactly two skills with the one in front of you.,If it's normal to be a fireball technique.,Mikasa's one is a fire charge.。
It wasn't long before the two of them spotted a group of three rapidly approaching through the perspective of their natural companions.
"Be careful, I always feel like there's something wrong." One of the three female players whispered a reminder to the other two.
"What's there to be careful, I've been looking for so long, but I've found this NPC, and if I can't find it, I'll really have to give up." A male voice replied.
"Xiao Wei, I think what Alan said makes sense, how can this NPC be so leisurely and naturally barbecued." Another, more athletic male player also stopped.
"Eh, Rum, are you Alain's follower, you listen to what she says, I've seen it with reconnaissance, and there's no one else around." The ranger, who was called Xiao Wei, said this, but he didn't step forward again, but looked at the other person and continued to argue loudly.
Two seconds later, a ghost hand formed by a shadow extended from the female player's side, grabbing at the NPC in the distance.
The priest's third-order skill, the Shadow Hand, needs to be moved to two levels to learn, and the role is very flexible, it can attack, defend, and grab the target remotely like in front of you, the effect is actually very similar to the enhanced version of the Mage's Hand, but the strength has been greatly improved.
Seeing this spell, Sherlock also knew that he couldn't hide it, after all, not everyone is a fool who will be blinded by interests, as long as you calm down and think about it carefully, you can see the disharmony of this trap.
A wind and thunder shuriken directly destroyed the priest's shadow hand, and he said helplessly: "Long time no see, Alain, Rum, Serena Williams." ”
As soon as the three of them approached him, they already recognized their identities, which were the tequila, rum, and whiskey that had teamed up together to brush up on the faith before.
It's just that these three people shouldn't be burying their heads in their faith, how can they have time to participate in this kind of dungeon, if the other party's target is also Kodek, he can only send them out.
"Sherlock, you're in this quest too, this NPC is your bait?" Although the whiskey man is in the second grade, there is no problem with his IQ, and he immediately thought of what was going on.
"It's fair to say that my mission requires protecting this NPC until the end of the mission, so if you insist on ......, then I'll have to say I'm sorry first." Sherlock's body turned into a half-cat form in the blink of an eye, and he said with his hands pressed on the scimitar at his waist.
He is confident that the combination with Mikasa will not lose to this trio who are keen on farming faith, but if it really fights, it will be difficult for NPC Kodek to take care of it.
Hearing his euphemistic warning, the trio on the opposite side were overjoyed, and then listened to Whiskey say: "I'm sorry, our mission is also to protect NPCs, just together." ”
"This is a mission of faith at the Mericay Temple, let's rescue Kodek, the target of the Supreme Hunt." Seeing that Sherlock hadn't let his guard down, Whiskey continued to explain.
Marat, the god of the jungle and the forest lady Merrikai, who advocates the balance of nature, are natural mortal enemies, and the cruel ritual of the supreme hunt has always been the most unacceptable and unbearable for the priests of Melikai.
Every time, the temple intervened, and this time, naturally, it was no exception, but the members sent were replaced by adventurers.
And in the vicinity of Sequoia Town, or in the eastern part of the entire Supreme Forest, there are almost no faith points higher than the three of them in whiskey, so this time the task fell to them.
In fact, halfway through hearing this, Sherlock already believed them, and in this kind of story mission, the three Merrikai believers had to choose to protect the NPCs if they didn't want to bear the wrath of the Temple Priest.
Faith in the game, faction is not just a symbol of identity, under normal circumstances, players can do whatever they want, but when it comes to missions, plots or dealing with NPCs, they must abide by the corresponding rules, otherwise there will be a certain degree of chain reaction.
For example, a paladin can only stand up when a robber robs a village, otherwise he will lose the ability to perform related magic spells, and a warrior monk who believes in the goddess of darkness, Shar, may be imprisoned by the relevant hostile god priest if he accidentally reveals his identity.
So in the Forgotten Realm, if you don't know the background of the game, it's best not to do something out of the ordinary, otherwise it will attract the attention of some people, or even some gods, and anything can happen.
