Two days later.

"Are you leading the wrong way, there are so few monsters on this road!" Rodhart grumbled as he raised his dagger and shaved his few beards.

Monfila frowned and looked at the map in his hand. In fact, he didn't come out directly to the "Blood Bird" this time, after all, the level of the three people is still too low, and it may be a little difficult to get this boss. At present, the most important thing is to destroy more mobs and level up as soon as possible.

According to the information learned in the city, the "Blood Bird" does not stay in the "Buried Bone Place" as in the game, but swims in the depths of the Icy Plain, so Monfila and the three of them wander aimlessly, which can not only fight monsters and upgrade, but also be regarded as a kind of search.

But what is frustrating is that it has been two days since he came out, and he has only encountered a wave of monsters, a dozen or so dark hunters, which makes Rodhart, who is bent on upgrading, very depressed.

The other teams of the Awakened have encountered several teams, and it seems that these second-order friends want to try their luck, hoping to kill the blood bird to complete the task.

Everyone was surprised to see Monfila's three-person team, and it was just a death for only three people to come out and mess around! There was also a team of six people who wanted them to join the past, but was rejected by Monfila.

The consequence of the influx of awakened people into the cold field is that, as Meng Feila said before, the nearby monsters were masturbated by everyone, and they couldn't find the monsters to beat.

"It's okay, it's only been two days, and the Cold Plains are so big, I don't believe they'll clean them up, and if they do, they'll all go to hell a long time ago. We're going to go to the depths of the wilderness for a few days, and we're sure we'll encounter monsters. ”

Another ten days passed.

Meng Feila gasped and sat on the ground to rest, his mana was empty, and the corpse explosion skill was too mana-hungry. Kaori was also tired enough to sit on the sidelines, just now she had been firing fire bombs on the move, and she had to calculate the time, and her physical and mental strength were seriously consumed.

Rodhart didn't rest, and of course he wasn't very tired, excitedly rummaging through the corpses and flesh fragments to pick up equipment. Since he returned to the team, he has naturally taken over the work of picking up scrap from the stone demons.

In the "sports warfare" tactics after the two of them blessed with mana, Rodhart sadly found that he had become a dispensable person.

In the past few days, there have gradually become more and more monsters, and three or four waves of monsters can be killed every day. However, due to the fact that in order to save Skeletons 1 to 4 from death, Memphera rarely allows skeletons and monsters to physically attack for a long time.

And in order to conjure and produce skeleton soldiers, Monfera's blessing position is not on the turn of "attack power", "primary leadership technique" and other abilities to enhance physical damage, resulting in Rodhart's output being at the bottom of the three.

Even if he wanted to pull hatred, in the face of Kaori's "electrostatic field" and Memphira's "corpse explosion" group damage, the monsters didn't look at him squarely. Rodhart has now been reduced to protecting the "skeletons".

That's right, the task assigned to him by Monfila is to use the "power" or "resistance" aura to help the skeleton soldiers obtained by the new conjugation to block the gun at any time, anyway, his defense and block are high, and he can't die if he is stabbed by a few mobs.

He used to be very dissatisfied with his tall paladin as a nanny for summons, and Memphira specially showed him the power of skeleton soldiers.

In a certain battle, he left a dark hunter alone for him to control with a shield strike, and after adding a curse and opening the power aura, more than twenty skeleton soldiers together chopped off the bloody dark hunter with a single sword, making Rodhart's mouth open wide in shock.

This hurt Rodhart very much, and he eagerly hoped to be promoted to level nine, replaced with the high-damage "Severber's Short Stick", and even quickly upgraded to the third level, learning to increase the output of powerful skills.

"Huh? This scepter is good! Rodhart stood in the middle of the battlefield and picked up a bloodshot scepter, which had turned dark red from its original golden appearance.

Seeing him walking towards him with his equipment, Meng Feila hurriedly shouted, "Stop! Wash it and bring it to me! ”

"Cut, fault!" Rodhart stopped, picked up all the equipment, rinsed it off, and brought it over.

I just killed twenty monsters and got two pieces of normal equipment and two potions.

Unexpectedly, the scepter turned out to be a good blue weapon, the golden body of the staff is the thickness of a goose egg, the tip is slightly thick, and it is inlaid with red decorative gemstones, like a small crown. Plus's skills happen to be something that Rodhart hadn't learned before.

Scepter of Sharp Energy:

One-handed damage: 7 to 13,

Durability: 50 out of 50,

Strength Points Required: 25,

Required Level: 6,

Mace Level - Fast attack speed.

+20% Damage Enhancement,

+20 Attack Accuracy,

+1 to Fire Resistance (Paladin only),

+1 to Cold Resistance (Paladin only),

+2 Holy Light Bullet (Paladin only),

+3 Energy,

+50% damage to undead.

What do you really want to do, Monfera was still thinking before, if the team still lacked the anti-fire aura when she encountered the Dark Gold Monster "Bisu Hirosu", the Sinking Demon Wizard, this weapon would be in hand. Level 1 skills can add 52 points of fire resistance, and everyone has added some various resistances to their equipment, which can basically make up more than 70 points.

This was not what Rodhart was thinking, he changed his scepter and released a few "holy light bullets" into the distance, and the bright white spike bullets flew out quickly, illuminating a mouthful of white teeth that were exposed because he couldn't close his mouth in excitement.

"Haha, the second-level holy light bullet has 16-24 magic damage, which is more powerful than Kaori's fifth-level fire bullet, it only costs 2 mana, and it can also have 3-10 healing amount, now it's your turn to give me a hand. Next time there's a monster, watch my show! ”

Rodhart danced with his hands, he was so stimulated by the output performance of the two legal professions in the past ten days, seeing this scepter, it was like seeing his own spring.

"Hehe, idiot!" Monfila sat on the ground and sneered.

"Don't be jealous of brother, brother is just a legend, come, drink milk!" Rodhart didn't care at all, and gave Meng Feila a holy light bullet, a skill that can add health to his teammates.

Meng Feira felt the warmth of the Holy Light flicking into his body, but he didn't appreciate it, but continued to taunt: "Use your brain to think about it, is there an undead creature in this cold plain that you can perform with the Holy Light?" ”

"Shenma?" Rodhart was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, the Holy Light Bullet can only cause damage to the undead, and the Dark Spearwoman, Dark Hunter, and Sinking Demon on the Icy Plains are all "demon" monsters, and the giant beasts belong to "animals", damn, there are no undead creatures!

It was so aggrieved, Rodhart had a constipated expression. He finally has an output skill, and he wants to use the blessed massive mana to cool off, but there is no suitable monster! Rodhart turned the remaining mana into a holy light bullet and slammed it on.

"Well, it's so comfortable, go on. I think you can rely on this skill to open a massage shop, and you must have no worries about food and clothing. Monfila didn't care, and stretched comfortably.

Kaori couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at these two teasers, and comforted Rodhart:

"It's okay, it's good to be able to add blood, so the three of us will be safer. Besides, it's just that there are no undead here, and it will definitely come in handy when you go to other places in the future. ”

"That's right, in fact, you may be able to encounter undead creatures in the Icy Plains, and it will be up to you to show your skills when the time comes." Monfila said lazily, and Rodhart immediately became excited when he heard it.

"It is said that the Bloodbird does not stay in the Bone Field, but may wander around the Icy Plains. One of its natural abilities is to summon the hungry dead, and there must be a lot of corpses under the cold plains, and the summoned hungry dead will be handed over to you when the time comes. ”

Rodhart nodded, and was about to brag when Monfila interrupted him, "However, I don't want to encounter the Blood Bird at all right now, it must have a "very fast" enhancement attribute, and it is a long-range archer, so it is too dangerous to encounter it in an open place like the Icy Plains. ”

"Then why are so many people looking for it, aren't they dangerous?" Kaori said worriedly.

"There's no way, you see the conditions offered by the Elders of the Dawn Academy, the opportunity for the second order to ascend to the third order, and the opportunity for the third order to ascend to the fourth order, are temptations that these people can't resist. The Blood Bird is the lowest level monster that can explode the Pain Essence, so they can only go to it and take risks. Dead people are certain, but they don't know how many will die. ”

After the battlefield was cleared, Rodhart urged to continue on the road, he was eager to level up, and he was very concerned about the adventure of fighting monsters.

"I see that you were very interested in that mysterious treasure at the time, and you left the city in a hurry, why aren't you in a hurry now? What if we encounter a blood bird? Rodhart asked as he walked.

"If you can't beat it, you can run, what else can I do."

That being said, in fact, Meng Feila is also a little unsure in his heart. At that time, after seeing the bounty of the "Speed Necklace", he immediately left the city with a hot head. According to his speculation, this heroic invincible first-level strategic treasure, which originally had the attribute of "speed +1" in the game, should be equivalent to the "20% high-speed running/walking" ability of everyone in the team in the dark, which is convenient for escape and pursuit, and is bound to be obtained.

But after carefully pondering the attributes of the "Blood Bird" in the game in the past few days after leaving the city, he was a little cowardly.

"Blood Bird" is a fallen Rog archer, and although it is only a mission boss in a low-level area, it runs through the story of Diablo 1 and Diablo 2.

It is said that she was the most prominent disciple of the Amazonian leader "Kasha" in Camp Rog, and was a member of the "Order of the Blind Eye" at that time.

However, in the year 1263 of the continental calendar, that is, the year before the story of Diablo 2, Bloodbird was sent to Tristram to investigate a series of strange events in the new kingdom of Canduras, and soon after returning, he was corrupted by the evil power of the demon king Andariel and turned into a demon of hell.

Although she was destroyed by the heroes of Diablo 2, the rules of the world gradually changed, and she also became a monster who was resurrected for a long time in the cold field and the land of bones, and was endlessly tormented by the demonic energy of hell, and suffered from reincarnation forever.

There is even a dark gold "matriarch longbow" for the Amazons, called "Attack of the Blood Birds", which may have been the weapon she used before her fall.

In Memphira's impression, the Blood Bird in the Diablo 2 game has three talent attributes. The first is to summon the "Starving Dead", a new ability she acquired after her fall, a bit like the signature skill of some necromancers in Western Fantasy, "Undead Scourge", which can summon corpses that have been dead underground for many years to help in battle. If the battle lasts for a long time, the Awoken will most likely be surrounded by the starving dead.

The other two innate skills are her combat skills before she fell, one is the "Flaming Arrow", which is similar to the Amazon class, and it is estimated that the skill level is more than ten levels. The other is that it comes with a certain elemental effect on normal arrow attacks, and the specific elemental type will be different each time it is reborn. However, due to her depravity and becoming a monster, both of her combat skills have been seriously reduced, and her lethality is not very high.

The above are just her innate attributes as a special monster, and in addition to these, there will definitely be enhanced abilities similar to elite monsters. Monfila was 100% sure that it was at least "very fast", because in the game this guy jumps faster than a monkey.

Meng Feila shook his head, in his heart, if it weren't for the blood bird's relatively low health, this guy could be called one of the most difficult monsters in the range of Rog City, and he hoped not to encounter it in a short time.

Thinking of this, a long-standing question in Memphira's heart surfaced again.

Judging from what he learned, this world is about one hundred and fifty years after the legendary heroes drove out the forces of hell for the first time, and the current rulers of the continents are mainly major families and former tribal forces, all of which are related to the former legendary heroes.

So, where have all those old forces on the continent gone?

For example, the Kingdom of Canduras, which was once the first to be corrupted by demons for a short time, although the former king Leoric fell into Skeletron, and Prince Aidan also died due to the failure to seal the demon god Diablo with his body and broken soul stones, but it is too strange that the entire kingdom has disappeared.

There is also the Kingdom of Westmar, which was once an ally of the Kingdom of Canduras, but was later dragged into the war because Leorik was demonized and went crazy, but it also quickly died out after the defeat of the war. What is the reason for the collapse of these two kingdoms, which have disappeared after more than a hundred years?

The current power of the five major families is obviously the resurgence of the original tribal power of the Sanctuary World, which has developed through the great prestige and popular support of the first eradication of the Hell Force. And they have completely eliminated the influence of the original kingdom, which shows the depth of the means.

There must be many secrets that Memphira does not know. Perhaps, it is possible to know some clues when it comes to Tristram, the site of the former Kingdom of Canduras, or even to Kurast, the capital of the former Kingdom of Kejistan.
