Chapter 06: Dead Village
After everyone had regained their health, they set off, and around a small hill, a flat ground appeared in front of them, and some stone tombstones stood on the flat ground. Some of them are crookedly engraved with a few words, and some are simply a stone. A small bag protruded slightly from the grass on the soil, and it seemed that a lot of people were buried.
Here, it's a mass grave.
There were many figures swaying on the mass graves, overlapping and looming in the night.
"Hiss~ There are too many monsters." Su Wubao gasped when he saw this scene, "Have you beaten it?" What do you think? ”
"It's not good, a large group of people come up and shed blood very quickly, and they can't hold it at all." Xiaoyu said.
"Let's try it first." Still Jian Feng proposed, "We have all been promoted to the next level, and there should be no problem with such a big master as Brother Wu to join." ”
"Okay, then you can go and attract the monster, be careful." The knife wielder said.
Among the three of them, Sword Storm has the highest level and the best technique, so he is the one who is to attract the blame. Su Wubuli is still too low-level, if the hatred of the blame is all on him, it is easy to be seconded.
Sword Terror picked a place where there were few monsters and struck one of the revenants with a crowbar in his hand, only to pounce on the surrounding revenants as well. Seeing that he had attracted hatred, the sword frightened immediately retreated, and when he retreated to a safe distance, the swordsman and others attacked.
Su Wuxuan slashed his sword at the neck of one of the revenants, only to find that it was like slashing into the air. Still, the revenant screamed and lost a large amount of health.
"Huh? Am I getting higher attack? Is it because he has been promoted to the next level..."Su Wubao thought in his heart, when he killed monsters before, he always felt that the sword in his hand was very thick and blunt, which affected his feel very much, but now it is much more comfortable, and a few swords of a revenant soul can be done.
Even so, these revenants were still very difficult to deal with, because their attack was light and fluttering, and the damage was still very high, and even Su Wubao was caught off guard and lost a large amount of blood. Everyone can only clear the monster while biting the lollipop to regain blood, and it took a lot of effort to finally clear the first batch, but looking at the group of revenants in front of them, it feels like it has not decreased at all.
Of course, they don't have to clear all the monsters here, before Sword Terror has already chosen a route where monsters are relatively rare, as long as they follow this road all the way in, it will take some time.
"Whew~ Can't you take a detour? When is this going to be..."Su Wubao asked, and after everyone cleared another wave of monsters, they rested a little on the spot.
"As the name suggests, Huanshui Village is surrounded by water on all sides, and only the bridge opposite the mass grave can be entered, and this mass grave is standing on the mountain, so if you want to detour, you have to walk from the other side of the mountain." Xiaoyu explained, "In that case, it would be better to clear all the way in like we are now." ”
"Well... Actually, I have an idea. ”
"Oh? What do you think? Sword Storm asked.
"I just looked at it, and I found that although these revenants have high attack power, they are very slow, and we can't touch them without entities, so I thought if we could ignore these revenants and run straight over? Xiaoyu, do you still have a drink to regenerate blood there? ”
"Yes, I bought a lot of them."
Hearing Xiao Yu's affirmative answer, Jian Feng thought for a while and said, "You can give it a try, but what about Xiao Miao, if we hold her, our running speed will still be affected to a certain extent, and once we are entangled by a group of undead souls, we will die." Regardless of whether she can or not, if she dies the mission will fail as well. ”
"My shoes have the property of increasing movement speed, Xiao Miao can let me hold them." Su Wubao had already figured out a way, "With my skills, I won't let her get hurt." ”
"That's okay, just give it a try according to the method of not bullying brothers, anyway, there will be no punishment if you die." Sword Storm felt that there was no problem, and also agreed.
Su Wubao staggered to Xiao Miao and squatted down, showing a smile that he thought was very kind, and said to the little girl: "Xiao Miao~Is it okay to let my uncle hug him~"
As a result, Xiao Miao ignored him, turned around and hugged the knife-wielding guest.
"Xiao Miao, although this uncle looks obscene, he is actually not a bad person, he is going to help Xiao Miao go home, Xiao Miao will let this uncle hug him, okay?" Xiaoyu also helped persuade him, but Su Wubao felt that there were a lot of words in it.
"Don't." Xiao Miao refused very decisively, and drilled into the arms of the knife-wielder.
"Uhh Am I just annoying children like this..."
"Maybe it's some kind of hidden attribute, don't be too sad Brother Wubao..."The sword frightening wind patted Su Wubuli's back to comfort him, but after listening to his words, Su Wubuli was even more sad.
"Uh... Since Xiao Miao is unwilling, let's clear it slowly according to the original plan, it's more stable, isn't it? The knife wielder said that he didn't really want to be separated from Xiao Miao.
NPCs don't cooperate, and everyone doesn't force it.,After all, playing games is meant to kill time.,And everyone can brush up on experience along the way.,So it doesn't matter.。
After Su Wubao was promoted to another level, everyone finally walked out of the mass grave, and after walking a short distance, they saw a small arch bridge, and the opposite side of the bridge was Huanshui Village. When we came to the entrance of the village, we found that it was dark in the village, and none of the houses were lit up, only a few street lamps on the side of the road that seemed to be in poor contact provided the light source.
"Xiao Miao, we are almost at your house, do you remember where your house is?" The knife wielder asked, but Miao didn't answer him this time.
"It looks like the NPCs won't provide any clues." Seeing this, Sword Storm said, "Let's split up in pairs." ”
"Okay, then I'll be in a group with Brother Dao, and I can protect Xiao Miao if there is danger." Su Wubao immediately said.
"Then I'll be in a group with Xiaoyu, let's go."
Su Wubao and the knife-wielding guest came to the door of a family, which was also closed. "Papapa" Su Wubao knocked on the door and shouted, "Is there anyone?" Open the door, we picked up a little girl and want to ask if you know each other! Hello? Su Wubao knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
The two changed again, but Su Wubao knocked on the door: "Is there anyone?" Open the door~ Don't hide inside and keep quiet, I know you're at home, you have the ability to rob a man, why don't you have the ability to open the door! ”
"Uh... Brother Wu Bully, calm down..."The knife wielder couldn't understand what Su Wu was shouting.
"It's okay, I'm calm." Su Wubao said lightly, he didn't hesitate and walked to the next one, "Open the door!" Dongfeng Express! This time, Su Wubao was even more polite, knocking on the door loudly.
The houses in this village are still wooden and look quite old, how can they afford Su Wubao to knock like this, and they will be crumbling in two clicks. Su Wubao didn't seem to be able to understand his hatred, so he directly got up and kicked the door open with a roundabout kick.
Knife wielder: "... No bullying brother, we are here to send children, not to rob. ”
"Sure enough, there was no one..."Su Wubao walked into the house and glanced at it, the tables and chairs were covered with a thick layer of ash, and the beams were covered with cobwebs, and at a glance, he knew that no one had lived here for a long time.
"How so?" said the knife-wielding man, looking at the inside of the room.
Su Wubao suddenly turned around, pointed his sword at the knife-wielding man, and said very indifferently: "We have come to the village according to your ideas, and you should show up after pretending to be for so long." ”
"No bullying brother... What are you talking about, why am I getting more and more incomprehensible about what you're saying? "The knife wielder is full of question marks.
"Giggles, clucks...", the little seedling in the knifeman's arms suddenly let out a burst of oozing laughter, and slowly floated out of his arms into the air, and at the same time, his face turned pale as if he had been swollen by blisters.
"When did you start doubting me..."It turned out that Su Wubao was not referring to the knife wielder, but the little girl Xiao Miao in his arms, and Xiao Miao's Lori voice gradually became the voice of the royal sister.
"If you want to be skeptical, it should be at the beginning."
"Oh? Where did I find a flaw? ”
"Your biggest flaw is - how can a person like me who is in the wind not like a child!"
"Hmph..."Xiao Miao rolled her eyes.
"Besides, I'm curious about how you got there with a four or five-year-old kid when your house wasn't close to the lake, and there were so many strange things on the road."
"You're suspicious of a child just because of that?"
"Of course not, the sentence 'indifferent people probably chose to ignore her because they didn't want to ask for trouble' in the mission description makes me feel strange, but there are city patrol guards near the main city, and ordinary civilians don't care about it, don't they care? I don't think it's that they don't care, it's that they can't see you at all. Because you don't! Be! Person! ”
"What mission description, are you starting to babble?"
This is a hint given by the system, of course Xiao Miao, as an NPC, doesn't understand the content of this part, and Su Wubao didn't plan to explain to her and continued: "Then along the way, I had more questions, why do you behave so calmly when we kill monsters, an adult will be afraid of wolves, and you are not afraid at all."
"When I got to the mass grave, I proposed to run directly over to save time, and you actually refused, shouldn't a lost child hope to get home early; Then when I attacked the revenants there, I found that my damage had become higher, and I thought it was because I had leveled up, but then I found out that the sword was also upgraded and the damage was not as exaggerated as my increase, and I thought it might be that the sword in my hand really had some hidden properties, such as warding off evil spirits or something. ”
Su Wubao stroked the word "Shu Mountain" on the sword, which was not obvious, and continued: "So I thought of the way you showed such repulsion when you met me from the beginning, and even refused me to carry you through the mass graves. Even if you're not some lost little girl, your purpose is still to get us here, wouldn't it be better to get there sooner? I don't think it's me you're rejecting, it's the sword in my hand! ”
"Of course, that's all speculation, and I still can't be completely sure that you have a problem. Until we came to this dead village! ”
