"Oh?"

Xu Ercong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly walked to Wang Dali's side, standing side by side, looking condescendingly into the distance.

Skeletons do not have a visual function, but players can perceive them through the lens of a soul and see farther than the naked eye.

Really.

In the distance, there were dark shadows walking back and forth.

Although Xu Ercong couldn't see the specific appearance of the black shadow, and the black shadow was a little blurry, Xu Ercong roughly judged that this should be a group of human beings.

At this critical juncture, a group of human activities appeared on the outskirts of the northern forest, either adventurers or temple forces.

"This is an enemy from the Temple!"

Xu Ercong opened his mouth categorically.

The reason why he was so sure was because even from a great distance, he could feel a breath that made him particularly uncomfortable.

Only the breath from the God of Light and the followers of the God of Light could make the undead so oppressive and uncomfortable.

This is a little setting that has been written into the game information for a long time and is known by the majority of players.

Between mortal enemies, there is mutual induction.

Xu Ercong has always admired the official setting of the game, which can actually make people feel the momentum and breath that only in martial arts novels.

"Perhaps, this is the new game technology. It's great to live in a tech society, and playing a game feels like the real world. ”

......

"Huh? Wrong! ”

Eric frowned, and reflexively turned his head to look at the hillside far away.

There.

Empty.

Nothing.

Eric was not reassured, and turned his head left and right again, but found nothing.

"Your Excellency, what have you discovered?"

The knight lieutenant was polite, and he followed Eric's gaze and looked around, but he also found nothing.

"Didn't you notice?"

Eric didn't even reply, and said in a deep voice: "The breath of the undead, just now, I felt an extremely evil aura. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, this must be the breath of the undead recorded in the Divine Codex. These evil creatures are mortal enemies of God, so I feel uncomfortable. ”

"Didn't find it."

The knight lieutenant shook his head, he also looked around, and then said, "Your Excellency, perhaps because we have been close to the northern forest, we can feel the breath of the undead coming from the depths of the forest. ”

"This also shows that the hall master is extremely right, there are indeed undead in the forest of the northern realm."

Hearing the words of the knight lieutenant, Eric shook his head: "If the undead are in the depths of the Northern Forest, then why can I feel such a real evil aura?" ”

"I suspect that the undead are all around us."

"Your Excellency, do you think they have appeared?"

The adjutant was stunned, it is true that Eric is the best in the knights and has outstanding strength, but he is not the only one who can feel the breath of the undead, right?

In his words, he was simply saying that the other knights were blind and deaf?

The adjutant did not dare to question Eric's words, who made Eric the commander of this operation.

"It should be some powerful demonic beasts haunting."

The knight's lieutenant paused, and then asked, "Your Excellency, shall I send some people to reconnoiter the vicinity?" ”

"Okay."

Eric nodded and added, "Remember to bring the Lucky Eagle." ”

The Lucky Eagle is a kind of eagle-like magical beast specially cultivated by the temple, with a strong sense of reconnaissance, and can overlook the sky below from a high altitude that is not visible to the naked eye, and can exchange information with summoners who are proficient in beast language.

The most important thing is that the Lucky Eagle knows how to protect itself, and can effectively detect the fluctuations of magic, so as to avoid the spell attacks of the magicians.

It can be said that the Lucky Eagle is a well-known and powerful means of the temple, and it is also one of the reasons why the temple is strong.

"Okay."

The knight adjutant nodded, quickly left the station, and personally led people and Fortune Eagle to reconnoiter nearby.

Everyone has already arrived in the Northern Forest, and on the premise of knowing that there are undead in the Northern Forest, the Templar Knights cannot be too serious and cautious.

When the Knights arrived in the Forest of the North, it was almost 10 a.m.

Counting the time to rest and recharge, it may be almost afternoon.

Coupled with the need to apply the magic potion necessary to enter the forest, it will definitely take longer.

According to the information in the canon, the undead are stronger at night, so to be on the safe side, Eric does not plan to enter the northern forest today.

Let the Knights rest for most of the day, return to their full state, and then enter the forest to encircle and suppress this group of evil beings!

"Just let these despicable and evil creatures live a few more days."

Eric looked in the direction of the forest, and he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly: "What am I talking about, the undead are a group of dead people, how can they die?" I should say that this is a God-given purification. ”

This time, there were enough hundreds of knights who came to the Northern Forest, and there were some white-clothed priests to follow, which was not the top of the temple, but it was not as good as underestimating.

Add to that the fact that Bishop Mauria is in a town near the Northforest, with a knightly order of two hundred men and more clergy, and that is enough to destroy a small nation.

Bishop Mauria valued this operation very much, and before he set out, he swore that he would destroy all the undead as his own merit, so that he would have the capital to compete for the next lord of the temple.

However, he was as cautious as the knight of Eric, and without knowing the details of the undead, Bishop Mauria refused to devote all his forces to the northern forest.

Leaving a part of the army in the town, it can be defended or attacked, and it can also be used to promote and strengthen the beliefs and teachings of the temple in this remote town, which is the best of both worlds.

"Go and set up camp, we'll rest here tonight."

Eric called the other lieutenants and instructed them to set up camp: "Pay attention to safety, the camp should be far away from the forest, and be careful to be discovered by demonic beasts." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The adjutant took the order and left.

......

The team that went to patrol the forest set off.

The knight lieutenant walked into the northern forest with twenty-three knights and three lucky eagles.

He knew his duty, to find out if there were undead beings around, and he must ensure the safety of the camp, and not be attacked by evil beings.

"...... of the Undead"

The knight lieutenant walked through the forest path, looked at the forest in the sun, and couldn't help but smile: "If there are really undead leaving the forest of the northern realm, it will be a good thing." ”

"At the very least, we can obtain a great merit, and it is possible to be endowed with divine magic and become a great divine knight."

The knight lieutenant's words made the knights around him laugh.

They had already heard from the hall master that even if there were undead in the northern forest, it could be some weaker skeleton soldiers, because the stronger the undead, the more difficult it would be for them to pass through the plane passage.

Even Esk's most powerful summoner can't summon high-level undead.

A group of skeleton soldiers, their strength is stronger than ordinary people at most, and when they meet professional knights in armor, skeleton soldiers are definitely not opponents.

The sunlight poured through the cracks in the leaves of the forest and fell on the armor of the knights, reflecting the shimmer of metal.

They were dressed in white armor and armed with knights' swords, and they were heroic and majestic.

Every step of the knights was extremely heavy, and the exterior of their armor had a layer of white shimmer, which was not sunlight, but a protective layer of Dou Qi left over from years of cultivation.

As members of the Temple's armed body, the knights had the confidence to destroy all of the gods' enemies.

"You go over there, a few of you go over there, I'll take people on this road, everyone pay attention to safety, if you encounter a monster, don't do unnecessary entanglement."

The knight lieutenant gave the order to disperse the knight team and divide it into several teams.

Anyway, you don't need to go deep into the forest, just patrol nearby, and it will be more efficient to disperse the patrol team, and you can support each other at any time even if there is an emergency.

However.

In the shadows of the forest, unbeknownst to the knights, there were several pairs of eyes quietly watching them.

......

"Brother Cong, a team of NPCs has come in, it looks like it should be an elite monster level, and the equipment looks pretty good."

"Obviously, this group of temple NPCs should be the content of the side quest, our enemies."

Wang Dali looked at Xu Ercong and asked, "How is it, do you want to do it?" ”

Xu Ercong lowered his head and was thinking, quite hesitant: "There are many temple NPCs outside the forest, if we attack this patrol, we will definitely be attacked by their support." ”

"What are you panicking about!"

Wang Dali slapped his thigh and said, "My brother Cong, the opportunity is right in front of you, let's do it first!" ”

"If we can eat this group of people alone, we'll have a side quest covered!"

"Even if we can't eat this group of NPCs, then we can test their strength, and then we can make the next arrangement."

"The worst possible outcome is to hang up."

Wang Dali made a final persuasion: "Moreover, we can arrange for a few ghost players not to participate in the war, if we all die, the ghost players will bring back the members who died and exploded in the blue suits, so that we have nothing to lose." ”

Wang Dali completely dispelled Xu Ercong's concerns, and he gritted his teeth: "Okay! Dry! ”

I'm afraid of death when I play a game, so just delete the number.

"That's right."

Wang Dali squinted his eyes and smiled, he had long wanted to try it, whether killing NPCs in the wild could explode equipment.

After all, everyone is tired of killing monsters, and they can finally kill NPCs.

"Look at the equipment on this group of NPCs, it looks at least above the blue level!"

I love the Berserker with a small team, squatting in ambush the scattered knight patrol: "There are five NPCs here, everyone wait and listen to my command." ”

"The xenomorph line will go up first and sneak attack, and we will try to play the backstab stream, gather fire to kill the last one first, and slowly eat this group of people."

"As you know, this is a technical job, a hardcore operation, but I'm recording, and when the time comes, I'm going to lose the live broadcast room to do a strategy commentary, don't embarrass our legion."

Hearing the words of my love berserker, one of the vampire players next to him patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, boss, I used to be a virtual alliance canyon driller!" My operation, don't worry, I'll take the lead! ”

"Okay, then you're on! Let me see the strength of Drill One. ”

"Okay."

The vampire laughed, and the other players looked at him with envy.

As long as you can do things in a side quest, even a slash NPC will be counted as quest points, which will affect the final reward settlement after the quest ends.

This is made clear in the side quests.

If it weren't for the Legion of the Paradise of the Dead having its own rules, players would have rushed out to cut people by the time they saw this group of Templars.

After all.

A slash is earned!

Slash twice and make a big profit!

Slash three times to earn blood!
