Chapter 35: Slaying the Dragon
On this flat land in the forest, players are divided into several places, and Zhou Xian is estimated to be about fifteen in the past. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
These players have a purple red symbol above their heads, indicating that they are all players from hostile nations and not NPCs.
In "World of Legends", there are four major countries, namely the Xuanwu Kingdom, the Vermilion Bird Kingdom, the Green Dragon Kingdom and the White Tiger Kingdom. Currently, the only countries available to players are Xuanwu and Suzaku.
According to the game's setting, the two countries are currently hostile, and players who kill players from rival countries will receive a certain number of country points. The level of these points will determine the attitude of most NPCs in the country towards themselves. If you have a high score, it will be easy to get various benefits from your own NPCs, such as lower item purchase prices, or skill teaching from high-level NPCs.
However, compared to killing players from enemy countries, it is easier to come to the country to score points, or to do transnational missions.
Players with high levels will sometimes encounter some adventure missions. Quests will eventually lead the player across public areas and into the territory of a hostile nation to complete some quests. If you can get out of it smoothly, you will earn a very large number of national points, as well as rewards for rare game equipment or items.
Judging from the current members of the mission group of the Xuanwu Kingdom player group, Zhou Xian understands that this group is definitely the elite of the players, and what needs to be completed is a task that will not be lower than the 2S level.
At this time, the first information that popped up in Zhou Xian's mind was "the overlap of tasks".
This is often the case with advanced adventure missions. The main story of the two missions overlaps somewhere, and then leads the player to either cooperate or compete, and finally determines the outcome of the mission based on the interaction between the two players.
If there is a mission overlap with a player from a hostile country from across borders, then there is no doubt that the possibility of cooperation is almost gone, and everyone has played a game directly, and the winning side can swallow up the other party's mission reward.
It's just that now Zhou Xian looked left and right, and found that he was from the Vermilion Bird Country, and the nearly twenty people on the opposite side, whether they were players or NPCs, were all absolute masters of the Xuanwu Kingdom...... As long as you are exposed at the moment, it is really difficult to fly!
"The three gurus are back!"
A young man with a yellow symbol of the obvious NPC stands up from the edge of the fire.
The young man's long lion-like blond hair glittered in the sun so much that no one could face it. With a tall nose bridge, a strong but not bloated figure with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a polite smile, he is an extremely noble character no matter how you look at it.
Mr. Dark, Mr. Fire, and Mr. Lei all bowed their hands, and it was still Mr. Dark who spoke: "Fortunately, we have borrowed three finished killing weapons from the third child. This is an apprentice who learned the craft from the third child, called Zhou Xian, and will follow us to participate in the action. ā
The third prince looked at Zhou Xian, who was wearing a helmet and looking like an Ultraman, and was stunned for a moment and arched his hand and said, "It's really a blessing to be a disciple of the Emperor of Craftsmen!" ā
Those players naturally looked over in unison at this moment, and more than a dozen eyes were focused on Zhou Xian's body, making him feel that his breathing was a little stagnant.
Fortunately, Zhou Xian's psychological quality is good, so he nodded immediately, but he didn't answer, looking a little unfathomable.
Don't talk about those four NPCs, Zhou Xian is estimated to be those high-level players of the Xuanwu Kingdom opposite, and he can be killed with any one of them. At this time, the best reaction for Zhou Xian was only one.
Loading NPC......
Sure enough, those players saw Zhou Xian's strange appearance, but they didn't care much. They almost subconsciously thought that the one who came back with those three quest NPCs must also be quest NPCs.
Zhou Xian accurately grasped this psychological blind spot, so there is no need to worry about safety for the time being.
"Alright, now everything is ready!" The third prince looked around for a week and said: "We are now at the border of the enemy country, and it is the right way to return to Fang after completing the operation as soon as possible, let's set off now!" ā
"Everything is under the orders of the third prince!"
Anyway, I don't know if those players are sincere, anyway, the kung fu on the scene has been done.
The group of people quickly cleaned up, then did some processing of the traces of the temporary camp, and walked towards the depths of the Nine Infernal Forest.
The Ninefold Purgatory Forest is one of the most dangerous places in the Vermilion Bird Country. Legend has it that in the middle of the forest, there is a bottomless abyss that leads to the netherworld, and there are peerless demons living underneath. It is also said that this abyss leads directly to the sea eye in the distant ocean, imprisoning an ancient demon dragon that can destroy the world.
Anyway, no one has ever gone in, so it's up to everyone to go to the legend themselves.
Around this bottomless abyss, there are circles of forests...... The reason why it is described as a circle is because the forest that surrounds this center is divided into several layers like a target. The color of the grass on the ground is different for each forest.
At this moment, the red grass where Zhou Xian and the others are standing is obviously the second layer of heavy forest from the outside, which is commonly known as the Eight Rings of Purgatory by ordinary players.
With each passing pass, you may encounter more powerful monsters. Because the level of monsters here is extremely high, and the idle ones are above level eighty, even expert players rarely come here to do activities.
Zhou Xian followed Mr. Dark, and consciously didn't mix with those players, the possibility of exposure was too great.
However, the whole team was mixed together, and Zhou Xian did not take the initiative to provoke the topic, but listened carefully to the discussions of those senior players of the Xuanwu Kingdom, in order to gather the necessary information.
Sure enough, after walking for more than half an hour, Zhou Xian knew the information he wanted to know most at the moment - the target of the operation.
Slay the Dragon!
As the top-level creature of the demon race, such a monster is a terrifying existence that players can't even imagine in the current game world.
And such a super terrifying creature will not appear in people's sight. Players can only learn some related stories and legends through communication with NPCs. And because of some equipment made of rare dragon materials inherited in the game world, it is indirectly confirmed that this creature really exists.
Along the way, with Zhou Xian's deliberate contact, Mr. Dark has become relatively easy to communicate. At this moment, Zhou Xian found an opportunity and asked him, "Mr. Dark, let's go this time...... Is it really to slay the dragon? ā
"Huh? Who told you that? ā
Mr. Dark's eyes widened, and a momentum belonging to a master naturally erupted, making Zhou Xian feel as if an invisible wind was blowing in front of him.
However, this kind of momentum is not caused by real air currents. Zhou Xian's psychological tolerance is not as immature as it seems on the outside, so there is no change on the face.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xian smiled calmly and said, "Mr. Dark, several of you have been discussing along the way. I'm not deaf, so I hear it. Slaying dragons is such a dangerous thing, are you sure, Mr. Dark? ā
Mr. Dark smiled for a moment, and then said lightly: "Little guy, we don't dare to think of normal dragons. However, a dying dragon is a blessing for whoever finds it. Most of the dragon-slaying income in this world comes from these dying dragons. ā
When Zhou Xian heard the words "dying dragon", his eyes suddenly lit up - this kind of danger has dropped a lot!
"So, all the top-notch weapons and armor in this world were collected in this way of making dragon fortune? Indeed, it is much easier to find a dragon's corpse to collect materials than it is to collect them after killing a dragon. ā
Hearing Zhou Xian ask, Mr. Dark immediately shook his head: "How is this possible?" If a dragon is on the verge of death, one of the dragons' innate supernatural powers will be activated before it dies, and it will be teleported to the dragons' ancient graveyard, where it will decay and turn into dry bones. ā
"Of course, if the dragon is besieged before it dies and it is unable to perform that natural supernatural ability, then all kinds of extremely precious materials on this dragon's body can be preserved, instead of rotting in the dragon's tomb where no one knows where."
As a handyman at a weapons shop with a makeshift cameo, Zhou Xian naturally knew how terrifying a weapon or armor made of precious materials on a dragon's body was. And now he also understands why Ming Shengzu is not optimistic about the character of the three brothers, but in the end he still has to gamble on this extremely small probability.
For craftsmen, the improvement of skill proficiency needs to be improved by processing high-grade materials. The more advanced the material, the better the effect.
Especially after reaching an extremely advanced level, it is very, very difficult to continue to improve proficiency no matter what life skills are, and ordinary materials can hardly bring any help.
Especially a top craftsman like Ming Shengzu who can create a killing weapon, the so-called top is that it has reached the upper limit under normal circumstances. If there is no special opportunity, the craftsmanship of this life will stop here.
But with the dragon clan materials harvested by slaying the dragon, it is possible for Ming Shengzu to break through the bottleneck of the top craftsman and reach the god-level craftsman level that has never appeared in the legend!
Zhou Xian glanced at those high-level players of the Xuanwu Kingdom, and it was estimated that none of them were below level seventy. Even for such a player, the dragon material is a very deadly temptation.
But the only thing he couldn't see through was the third prince who had always been very sunny...... For a member of the royal family of the Xuanwu Kingdom like him, what is it for organizing this dragon slaying operation?
