Chapter 46: The First Encounter with the Hall of Stars

Rococo: Their luck today was not very good.

Except for the first time Chu Jiajia failed to dodge the boss's fountain attack, the remaining second and third battles, Chu Jiajia, who perfectly dodged the chain entanglement attack, but because the boss launched the ultimate move later, there happened to be a fountain mouth under the treasure chest, so he was not able to successfully open the box.

However, the two were not discouraged, and after a short rest, they immediately began their fourth attempt.

"Jiajia!"

Hearing the voice of Rococo in the team channel, Chu Jiajia rolled to the side very decisively, skillfully dodging the boss's chains, and then the swordsman girl immediately got up from the ground and rushed towards the treasure chest.

The process is exactly the same as the previous two times, and next, the boss also launched his ultimate move without accident, and in an instant, the sound of the water churning and stirring once again resounded through this small shallow beach.

However, this time, to the surprise of the Rococo, the water around the golden treasure chest remained calm.

"Great, Jiajia continued to open the box, and ran away as soon as she got the things!"

Saying this, after Rococo gave the boss a shot and completed all her tasks, she could only watch Chu Jiajia on the shallow beach complete this dangerous task with a worried face.

Fortunately, Rococo's plan itself is still relatively perfect, and Chu Jiajia has trained during this time, although it has not reached the level of a master, but at least it has the level of an ordinary player. Obviously, it was only a dozen seconds but an unexpectedly long time passed, and finally when the boss was still some distance away from the treasure chest, the golden treasure chest opened in response, Chu Jiajia quickly took away a few things in the treasure chest, and then got up and ran quickly towards the nearby woods.

The fishman guard saw that the treasure chest he was guarding was finally won by these two thieves, and he was also angry, and with a big mouth, the fishman guard spit out a piece of blue-green gelatinous object and smashed it on Chu Jiajia's forward route, and suddenly the gelatinous object spread out, making the entire small area of the ground slimy.

Rococo was surprised, this is the boss's last ranged skill, Corrosive Sticky, which can slow down enemies within the area of effect, and by the way, lose a certain amount of health per second, although it can't be used to break the treasure chest, but the disgusting slowdown in this kind of pursuit battle is really fatal.

"Jiajia, jump to the side!"

Because Chu Jiajia was not mentally prepared for this, she had already rushed into this area before Rococo could remind her to bypass the sticky glue, so Rococo also changed her mind.

The Sticky's slowing effect, like her legs, only works for the movement of the ground, but the means of movement such as jumping are not affected.

Chu Jiajia listened to Rococo's instructions and did not continue to go deep into the viscose area, but jumped out to the side and moved a few steps hard to finally get out of the viscose field, this time, the boss who was slowly chasing behind no longer had any means, and watched Chu Jiajia take the baby into the grove around the shallow beach and disappeared, but he was completely powerless.

"Coco, we succeeded~!"

After entering the woods, seeing that the boss was no longer pursuing, Chu Jiajia couldn't help but hug Rococo with a smile. Although she and Rococo have not teamed up to deal with some bosses before, she has not once taken on one side of the task alone like this time, and almost always acts like a marionette according to Rococo's real-time instructions. Although Rococo also gave her instructions at a critical moment when opening the treasure chest this time, it can basically be said that she has completed her own mission by herself.

Looking at Chu Jiajia who was full of a sense of accomplishment, Rococo was also sincerely happy, with two shallow dimples on her beautiful face, and Rococo patted the top of Chu Jiajia's hair.

"Well, Jiajia did a great job."

"Hmph~" Chu Jiajia smiled very proudly, and then took out the things he got from the box, "Coco, these are the things inside the box." ”

Although Rococo knew that this box produced a water elemental summoning skill book, this was obviously something that could not be said to Chu Jiajiaming, after all, predicting the treasures in the box in advance was not something that normal players could do.

Looking at the aqua blue skin skill book handed over by Chu Jiajia, Luo Coco hurriedly took it with his hand and confirmed the name of the skill book, and his heart was completely relaxed.

"Huh?" Chu Jiajia tilted her head, "Coco, do you care about this skill book very much?" ”

"Uh, yes, yes," Rococo was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "I didn't expect to be able to get this skill book here, this is the water element skill [Water Element Summon], which happens to be a skill that I can use with the water element affinity talent, and the summoned water element can play the function of a meat shield to a certain extent, so we can more easily challenge those wild bosses in the future." ”

"Hey, that's it, uh-huh, it's really powerful."

Rococo really wanted to show off how much her skill book helped the team of two, but it was a pity that Chu Jiajia was always the Chu Jiajia who was more interested in adventuring and seeing the scenery than in combat leveling, and she obviously didn't follow Rococo's train of thought to consider evaluating this skill, but just expressed her sigh very ordinarily.

Rococo couldn't help but laugh dryly, how could she forget what kind of character this girl was......

"By the way, what's in the other box - who!"

Just when Rococo wanted to confirm a few other things in Chu Jiajia's hand, suddenly the "rustle" sound of the bushes being artificially plucked in the bushes near his ears and the warning from Alya in the system rang out at the same time, and Rococo instantly entered the battle mode, pulled out his bow and aimed at the direction from which the movement came.

"Oh, don't be nervous, little girls."

The two of them did not seem to be hostile, and in front of them was a male player who looked to be in his thirties, with armor on his body and two-handed swords in his hand, indicating that his profession was a berserker branch of warriors.

"I don't mean anything, I just heard that there seems to be someone fighting here, so I'm curious to take a look."

As he spoke, the player called Xingao Demon Knife gathered the two-handed greatsword in his hand behind his back, and then spread his hands with a smile. Although Rococo did not completely let his guard down because of this, he also put down the longbow in his hand in return.

There was a moment of silence.

Xingao Magic Knife couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, although Rococo and Chu Jiajia didn't continue to warn him, but they didn't show any intention of chatting with him at all, but in fact, Xingao Magic Knife was very interested in these two girls, especially Rococo.

However, just when the Star Proud Demon Knife didn't know how to speak, it was Rococo who unexpectedly spoke first.

“…… Are you, from the Hall of Stars Guild? ”

Rococo didn't want to pay attention to this berserker player who suddenly appeared, it wasn't that she was rude, but now that they had just gotten the treasure in a golden treasure chest, this person appeared in front of them immediately, and the timing was too coincidental. Although it seems that the other party has no malicious intent, in online games that lack some legal and moral binding force than in reality, it is better to have more necessary precautions than less.

However, to Rococo's surprise, she soon spotted the guild logo on the head of the Star Proud Demon Knife. Hall of Stars, this name is all too familiar to her who has information about the game forum in her previous life. In the middle of the previous life, the game rose in one fell swoop and defeated many old guilds led by the Dark Domain Guild, and then dominated the Star Hall of the Free Federation forces in the late game, and it was also the guild that first opened up the fish-man wetland in the previous life.

In an instant, Rococo thought of the incident with Mu Yun before, isn't it, there is a huge difference in the game trajectory between the previous life and the present life? The Star Hall Guild actually opened up the Fishman Wetland in advance? If that's the case, then it's a bit troublesome, the production of a golden box is still very precious today, if the Star Palace is opening up the wasteland, then Rococo and Chu Jiajia who stole this box under their noses will inevitably be targeted by them, after all, in the forum information owned by Rococo, this Star Hall union is quite domineering in the late game, although it will not make people angry, but it is undoubtedly strong for ordinary players.

But fortunately, the answer of the Star Proud Demon Knife made Rococo understand that she was thinking too much.

"Well, that's right, I'm from the Hall of Stars Guild...... Sounds like you know our guild? ”

“…… It's just that I've met a few people who are in the same guild as you before. ”

Chu Jiajia, who was behind Rococo's side, couldn't help but show a look of confusion, how could she not remember if they knew any players from the guild, but before she could reveal more flaws, her hand was pinched by Rococo, and then received a hint of Rococo's secret little look.

The small movements of the two Rococo did not see the Xingao Magic Knife, at this moment he was crossing the gap in the woods and saw an inexplicable lonely fishman guard guarding an empty box on the shallow beach in the distance, noticing the appearance of the Xingao Magic Knife, Rococo couldn't help but tentatively speak.

“…… Your guild is going to open - ahem, do you have any thoughts on that boss? ”

In an instant, Rococo received a warning from Arya in the system, according to the information on the forum, the Hall of Stars Guild in the previous life of the game, after the game currency and real currency exchange was opened, with the help of a strong foreign capital to grow in one fell swoop, and in the early game this guild is not high-profile, if she shows too much knowledge of this guild here, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Sure enough, when the Star Proud Demon Knife heard the question of the girl in front of him with some nervousness (in fact, he was nervous about his lame acting skills), he immediately mistook Rococo for the others to worry that he was coming to make trouble on behalf of the guild, so he smiled.

"Ah, no, don't worry, I'm not here to find trouble."

That's right, if someone else got the golden chest, I can't say that he really has to think about pretending to be a bad guy, after all, the map of the Fish-Man Wetland is an important map of the first guild development set by their young master himself, although now they have only sent their elite group to investigate, but the Star Proud Magic Knife, which has absolute loyalty and confidence in his own young master and the young master's career, has already regarded all the resources on this side of the fish-man wetland as his own thing. This kind of thing like this, when the treasure was taken away before the wasteland was cleared, it was obviously not very good-looking on the young master's face.

However, after being attracted by the sound of the fishman guard's ultimate move here, and coming around to secretly see the whole process of how these two cute girls outwitted the treasure chest, the Star Proud Demon Knife also had a slight different idea.

"Miss Rococo, and this ...... Miss Chu Jiajia, you are free players, right? I wonder if the two of you are interested in the Canadian Guild? ”
