Chapter 146: Road Encounter (I)
The team continued to move forward, but Levi always felt as if he had overlooked something, but no matter what he thought, he couldn't think of what it was, so he had no choice but to give up for the time being.
"Tanato," Levi called to the Moorish knights, "you lead a team of halberders and go ahead to reconnoitre, Guards Davi, you take the swordsman behind the palace, and the others walk in the middle." ”
In the end, Levi decided to prioritize safety, even if it slowed down the team's progress a little, safety was the most important thing.
The two of them immediately responded, and the whole team immediately began to adjust, but Huamez didn't hear the order about her, so she couldn't wait to run to Levi's side: "What about me, what about me?" ”
Levi smiled: "Huameisi, you better stay by my side first, the team is a relatively vulnerable ranged unit, and you still have to protect me." ”
A smile suddenly bloomed on Hua Meisi's face, although she enjoyed fighting monsters very much, because almost all the good knights in the Knight Kingdom grew up like this, but if Levi needed to protect himself, it would not be bad to stay by his side.
Soon there was new information from Tanato: "My lord, there seems to be something strange in the forest ahead, there are some special enemies in it, do you want to take a detour." ”
Livingston was interested: "A special enemy? How special is it? Let's go check it out first. ”
After all, this is the range of the novice village, Levi thinks that even if the enemy is special, it will be at most the second order, not too strong, even if the greenskins who suddenly appeared before, the strength is not too much, but the number is a little more. You can try it yourself, if it's really difficult to deal with, it's too late to take a detour, and it's still a long time before it gets dark.
Soon Levi and the others approached the special enemy that Tanato said, and Levi looked at it, hey, these guys are really special.
Unlike all the enemies they've killed before, the enemies here are plants!
In the middle of the forest, rows of yellow-green plants with a diameter of more than an adult's arm, more than a meter high, and the appearance of sunflower fields towered there.
It's just that the sunflower heads are sunflower seeds that can be harvested for people to eat, and the heads of these plants are hideous giant mouths, and there are rows of tooth-like growths on them, and they want to eat people in turn, they are all man-eating flowers!
Levi casually pointed to an archer carrying a rocket: "Shoot a rocket at the nearest cannibal." ”
According to common sense, plants must be afraid of fire, and Levi happened to do a little experiment to see if these plant-based enemies would be like this.
The archer quickly mounted the bow and launched a rocket at the target, the man-eating flower didn't know what was flying in front of him, it opened its mouth at first, ready to bite, but compared to the speed of the arrow's flight, its attack speed was much slower, but fortunately, the archer's hit rate was not bad, and he directly took the initiative to send the arrow into the man-eater's wide open mouth.
The man-eater immediately closed its mouth, and this time it was quite fast. But soon it regretted it, if it had the emotion of regretting it.
I saw that the surface of the man-eating flower quickly changed color, and then a large number of flames burst out from its inside, directly burning its entire head, and even affected the man-eating flower next to it, making these man-eating plants let out a snake-like scream, and it was directly killed by a rocket!
Levi took a look at the experience points, and found that although the experience points of this man-eating flower are very small, they should be higher than the ordinary Tier 0 troops, and if they all stay there stupidly and don't move, it may be a good place to level up, as long as you prepare enough rockets.
But Levi soon realized that his plan was unlikely to come true, because near the dead man-eating flower, a large group of man-eating flowers scrambled to stretch their necks, and after a brief build-up, spat out some yellow-green slime from their mouths, which immediately shrank as soon as the slime covered the place where the fire was on fire.
Although each piranha spits out very little slime, it can't hold up enough of them, and their range is about five or six meters, and the piranha flowers in the distance can also support, and it didn't take more than 3 seconds for Levi to find that all the flames were completely extinguished, and there was not even a single spark left.
Although they have a flame weakness, they are equally prepared to overcome this weakness.
Looking at the endless man-eating flowers in the forest, Levi immediately decided to give up, or according to what Tanato said, just take a detour, I really can't afford to spend it with them.
However, Levi still secretly made a note of this special location, which is obviously unlikely to be used by players for normal leveling, that is, there are some special things hidden in it, and when his strength becomes stronger, he will come back sooner or later to see what happened.
The group slowly exited the forest, and the Moorish knight Tanato, who once again led the halberders to reconnoitre, while Levi lagged behind, chatting with Wallace.
"Have you ever encountered or heard of this plant-like enemy before?"
Hua Meisi blinked, looking a little confused, but in the end she shook her head: "I'm sorry, Levi, I don't have any memories of this, and the Holy Sister doesn't seem to have told me. ”
Levi was about to say something, but Hua Meisi seemed to suddenly remember something: "Oh, by the way, Levi, I heard the Holy Sister say that in the east of the knight's kingdom, there is an endless forest full of magical power, and there are some big trees in the forest, yes, tree people, they are also plants!" ”
"Enchanted Forest?" Levi struggled to recall the information he'd gathered during this time, "Oh, do you mean the Great Forest of Athel Loren of the Wood Elves?" ”
Wood Elves, who are also one of the initial elective races of the Order faction, are very good at archery, and are currently the best race on the forums to use kite tactics, because their classes seem to be very fast-moving, and they are very effective against slow-moving, low-IQ monsters, but their attack power is not very high in comparison.
"That's right, that's the name, I've heard that the Wood Elves are tall, thin, and beautiful pointy-eared humanoids, but I haven't seen real Wood Elves yet."
It seems that little stars have begun to twinkle in Huameisi's eyes, because these characteristics of the wood elves are what she yearns for, although she wants to be a real knight the most, but she is also a girl...
Levi looked at Hua Meisi's short man, and then at her shriveled figure, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, but in the end he decided not to say anything, because he didn't know how to comfort the other party for a while, probably the other party didn't have this potential...
Just when Levi was distracted, a slightly noisy sound suddenly came from the front, followed by the sound of weapons handing over, and Levi immediately came to his senses: "What's the matter?" Have you encountered a new enemy? Wanderer, you go ahead and see what's going on. ”
Since this was the corner of a forest, Levi's vision was temporarily obscured, and he could not accurately judge what was happening, so he could only look at the wanderer in front of him.
Originally, Levi thought that the way back to the village this time would be smoother, but he didn't expect it to be really twists and turns, Levi took another look at the hunter Dahl, who was a little dazed, but obediently stayed in the middle of his team, is it all because of this guy? Is it a type of task? However, Levi still asked the guards behind Dawei and others to hurry up as soon as possible.
The wanderer answered, and then trotted forward to check, Levi's question had not yet been answered, but he suddenly noticed that it seemed that with the wanderer's departure, the battle ahead became more and more intense, and he even heard a few clear shouts, and it turned out to be human!
"What's going on? Have you encountered another bandit-like enemy? Are they here to avenge their boss? ”
Levi immediately quickened his pace, he still clearly remembered that the musket of the previous bandit group leader was not small, and the strength of ordinary bandits was not weak, if they encountered this kind of enemy again, if they didn't have their own seats, they wouldn't be able to deal with it.
After turning around the grove, Levi realized that he was wrong, and it was not the Moorish knight Thanato's battle with the bandits, but in his opinion, they were even more hateful than the bandits, because the opponents were some troops led by the players!
I saw that sixty or seventy motley troops of various arms had already pounced on the Moorish knight Tanato and the others, and in the distance stood a dozen ranged units, and a small squad of melee troops responsible for protecting them.
Beside them, there were six or seven people who were dressed in mixed equipment and looked like they should be players, and one of them, Levi, looked very familiar, and he soon remembered that it was the Dark-blooded scoundrel who had died in front of the Far Wanderer's camp!
It's just that the dark blood hooligan at this moment is not the same as Cheng, he pointed to the black-armored Tanato, with a hideous face, and complained to a player in front of him: "Third brother, it's this damn guy, he just watched us being chased by the beastmen, didn't even help, and then kidnapped my wanderer, you see, it's the guy with a short sword in the back, that's the second-order unit I chose when I built the number!" You must avenge me, third brother! ”
The one called the third brother was a middle-aged man, and he waved his hand a little excitedly: "Don't worry, rascal, let's go and see what kind of copy of that one this time, so we gathered these troops, and it happened that I met this guy here who only carried a halberd, not even a long-range unit, the third brother will definitely avenge you, just take off his armor." ”
Although because the accounts currently open in this game are very scarce, and there are not too many people entering the various guilds, the Darkblood Brotherhood has long decided to develop in the Bretonnian Knight Kingdom, so everyone chose here, and just a few people were gathered to form a fairly good scale force, of which the number of second-order troops has exceeded 1 squad, and they feel that they can steadily clear that dungeon, let alone deal with the NPC in front of them.
"That's right, third brother, that guy's armor looks like a good thing, and it's still glowing outward." Another member of the Brotherhood of the Darkblood chimed in.
"By the way, third brother, can you be careful later, don't beat my wanderer to death."
The Darkblood Rogue spoke up again, he didn't bother to think about that wanderer, but it seems that this game class can't be upgraded, and he killed so many monsters for the other party, and he didn't even have an experience point hint.
The third brother slanted a glance at the dark blood hooligan: "What's the matter?" You're still thinking about bringing him back? Can you afford it? ”
Since the other party had directly wiped out all the soldiers before, the chairman ordered each of the nearby members to squeeze out a part of the resources and transfer them to the Dark Blood Rogue to let him get through this most difficult moment, and the third brother also shed some blood.
Although the president said that this was a guild point, he was still a little unhappy in his heart, but the sister and the president of this guy were a little unclear, it was estimated that it was a pair of dog men and women, and he didn't want to behave too much.
The bloody hooligan immediately licked his face and smiled: "Third brother, that guy's maintenance fee is not high, not high, hehe... ”
The third brother was just about to say something, knocking on the guy in front of him, and another player suddenly shouted, "Third brother, someone has appeared from the other side of the forest again!" ”
The third brother turned his head to look, and sure enough, a female player riding a white lion was the first to appear in their sight, followed by a guy in battle armor with a blue cloak floating on his back, and the number of opposing troops had exceeded 1 squad, among which there was even a grizzly bear and several troops he didn't know, but the number of melee troops didn't seem to be too much.
"Made, where is this master, he actually rode the white lion, and the man in the back is also very powerful, it seems that he has gathered a set of equipment from the Moore Garden copy and is on the horse. Gangzi, old rules, don't let them bother us, and then decide whether to deal with them or not after cleaning up the boss. ”
As soon as the third brother waved his hand, the Darkblood Gangzi behind him immediately ran to the front and shouted loudly: "Friends in front, this place has been chartered by the Darkblood Brotherhood to fight the boss, you wait for a while, or take a detour!" ”
But the Dark Blood Rogue stared at the white lion in the distance, his eyes full of greed: "Third brother, how can you be so sure that it is a player?" There aren't many players who can ride mounts these days, let alone such a beautiful white lion. ”
The third brother glanced at the other party disdainfully: "Hooligans, you didn't do your homework, didn't I deliberately collect information and send it down?" If this was somewhere else, I wouldn't dare to pack a ticket, but this is the Kingdom of Bretonnian Knights, and ordinary women are not allowed to ride horses at all, because they are not knights, let alone ride lions. ”
"And even in other countries, female NPCs are basically side saddles, and I've never seen one straddle like a man, so what else can it be if it's not a player?!"
He didn't know the special identity of Huameisi, and the information he collected was not comprehensive, that restriction was only valid for ordinary commoners and nobles, for the major religions, this could not control them, and Huamez happened to be a believer in the goddess of the lake, and her master was the saintess of Oak Village, and this rule was also invalid for her.
But when he heard these words, the bloody hooligan nodded again and again, and said in his heart that he was worthy of being the third brother, one of the smartest people in the guild.
On the other hand, after Levi heard the other party's shouting, he felt a little ridiculous. You attacked my men, but you told me not to interfere, did you even understand the situation?
Seeing that although under the leadership of the Moorish knight Tanato, the halberdiers fought and retreated, and began to move closer in their own direction, but there were still two halberders surrounded by a large number of enemies, and the end was estimated to be very bad, and his follow-up troops gradually followed, Levi did not delay any longer, anyway, the opponent was the Darkblood Brotherhood, and this time he took the initiative to provoke himself, and he deserved to kill them!
"Prepare the long-range troops, clear the road for me, and meet them with Tanatoe as soon as possible, Huames, wait for my orders, dare to move my subordinates, I will make you pay a heavy price!"
Levi thought about it, but he was still reluctant to let Huamez rush over alone, after all, the players are different from those monsters who have no brains, although Huames, who has been promoted many levels, is now very strong, but Levi still doesn't want to take that risk, because the situation has not yet reached that point.
