Chapter 43: Main Quest (2)
After a morning of exploring, Zhou Haobin did not find anything unusual in the south of the novice village. The stream www.biquge.info clear and you can see exactly what the rocks look like under the water, and the surroundings are the same as usual. The most advanced monster you meet is a slime, and it's not ferocious, but the ability to disgust people is first-class.
At lunch, Zhou Haobin couldn't help but ask Xia Hanxue: "How did you get the task of killing me?" ”
Not only Zhou Haobin, but others were also curious about how Xia Hanxue received this task, so Xia Hanxue elaborated on the whole process-
Yesterday afternoon, after she finished her equipment, she was about to go to the weapon shop to hand in the mission, and found a beggar in a tattered red dress sitting next to the door, babbling and asking for money from players passing by. Players passing by thought that he had a hidden mission on him, and threw out a few copper coins, but he didn't react; Throwing the silver coin, he didn't react.
She was also full of curiosity, and gave the beggar a gold coin, but the beggar glanced up at her and said, "Little baby, can you help me assassinate someone?" ”
Thus, the task of assassinating Zhou Haobin was born, and the content was exactly the same as the notice that Zhou Haobin forcibly received. It's just that she can share in a team, and Zhou Haobin needs to face the siege of several people alone.
At that time, she was shocked when she received the task, and she had to deduct two levels if she failed the task, which had never happened before.
Zhou Haobin was speechless, one gold coin for a hidden mission? I don't know which shameless designer set the trigger offline, who is so bad that he will throw a gold coin to a beggar, and it is still in the case of gold coins being scarce.
"Don't all your martial arts novels have a lot of chivalrous plots, and the greater your ability, the more you can help others. Therefore, if you can give beggars gold now, your ability will at least not be much worse. Xiao Fan's words almost didn't make Zhou Haobin angry, the novel is written like this, and your game follows it?
According to the words provided by Xia Hanxue, Zhou Haobin felt that the main quest might be related to the beggar, but it could also be the last time he saved the little wolf, the guy who planned to be destroyed by him sent someone to take revenge. However, these clues don't help much in the main quest.
After lunch, Zhou Haobin continued to explore the novice village.
The orchards and fields in the west of the village, everything is normal, and the cries of various animals come and go, so annoying that Zhou Haobin wants to extinguish all the light of destruction.
In the grassland north of the village, Zhou Haobin finally found an abnormality. The closer he got to the cave where he had saved the wolf cub last time, the more ferocious the monsters he encountered, and even monsters came running towards him from afar, as if they were mentally ill.
At night, in the woods to the east of the village, everything is fine.
Feeding back the results of the investigation to the village chief, he pondered for a while and decided to ask Zhou Haobin to go to the north of the village to bring some monster samples to the old man in the pharmacy to see if he could find anything.
"Ding", you have completed the quest [Truth Detection (2)], accept the task [Truth Detection (3)], collect samples of 50 monster corpses and give them to the old man of Shenhuo City Pharmacy. (Time remaining: 34 hours 18 minutes 02 seconds)
Although the monsters in the grassland north of the village are fierce, they are novice village monsters after all, and trying to solve them is just a skill.
After collecting 50 samples of monster corpses, Zhou Haobin hurriedly went to Shenhuo City to hand over the corpses to the old man, and before he finished checking, he went offline to sleep.
It was still past five o'clock in the morning, and before Xiaofan woke up, Zhou Haobin had already gotten up automatically. Somehow, he now feels empowered and has an insatiable amount of energy. There is no problem in splitting bricks with bare hands and running ten miles, which should be the result of soaking Chinese medicine two days ago.
After the exercise and bath, Zhou Haobin went online to talk to the old man, only to see the old man said with a serious face: "Adventurer, all animals contain dark power in their bodies, I hope you can go to the cave you said to investigate, please come back as soon as possible." ”
"Ding", you have completed the quest [Truth Detection (3)], accept the mission [Truth Detection (4)], and go to the cave north of the village of Novice Village 02007 to investigate clues about the power of darkness. (Time remaining: 25h 07 min 49 sec)
Stepping into the cave again, it was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and it took a few seconds before I could see a little bit of vision that was not far ahead. Zhou Haobin clenched his staff and walked carefully, and the sound in front of him made him dare not relax in the slightest.
Soon, Zhou Haobin met the first kind of monster - the scorpion of Huowai Mountain, and he couldn't help but wonder, how could there be an 11-level monster in the cave?
The irascible scorpion ignored Zhou Haobin's thinking, and rushed up angrily to slap Zhou Haobin, but was killed by Zhou Haobin with one skill.
One, two......
Walking in the direction of the poisonous scorpions, Zhou Haobin soon saw a glimmer of light flickering in front of him, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace, trying to figure out what was going on.
Entering another cave, a crystal with an eerie blood-red glow was suspended in the middle of the cave. Underneath it, a huge formation was supporting its continuous operation, also emitting a blood-red light, like a blood pool array, and the eye of the array was a crystal. The mutant monster fell from the eye of the formation, and continued to evolve as it climbed out of the formation. Zhou Haobin gave insight into the crystal, but what he got was a long list of question marks.
Out of curiosity, Zhou Haobin walked into the magic circle and picked up the staff to knock on the crystal. Xiao Fan, who understood Zhou Haobin's intentions, shouted angrily: "Don't!" But it was too late.
The moment the staff touched the crystal, a mutation sprung up. The striking crystals emit an even more intense light, like an angry lion, unleashing majesty to warn enemies invading its territory.
Zhou Haobin suddenly felt dizzy, and when he regained consciousness, he found that he was in a dark world. It is called the Dark World because there is nothing around but darkness.
In Shenhuo City, a mysterious old man hooked the corners of his mouth, wanting to destroy Lao Tzu's exquisite mist array? It's not that easy!
"Damn! What the hell is going on? Zhou Haobin hurriedly called Xiaofan, but did not get any response, and the rest of the communication methods were also disconnected, and he couldn't help but start to be anxious. Xiao Fan is obviously parasitic in his body, why can't he be contacted, he has no reason to ignore people.
Unable to contact Xiaofan, Zhou Haobin became confused, and there was darkness all around, which direction should he flee? But he couldn't sit still, so he had to walk forward with uneasiness.
After a quarter of an hour, there was not the slightest change in the surroundings. He is like being locked in a closed space, with only endless darkness in it, constantly hitting people's hearts, giving people depression and despair......
Another quarter of an hour passed, and there was still no change in the surroundings, and no matter how good Ren Zhou Haobin's patience was, he couldn't help but be rude. As a result, the foul language echoed in the air, and it took a while before it disappeared, and Zhou Haobin almost went crazy when he heard it.
Helpless, Zhou Haobin exhaled the elf system and wanted to go offline first, but was surprised to find that the system elf that could be summoned with a single movement of his mind was out of order at this moment, could it be that he was going to die in this ghost place?
Confusion, dissatisfaction, anger, exhaustion, despair, all kinds of emotions are ever-changing under the brewing of time. Zhou Haobin couldn't imagine how a game could trap people in the dark so really.
I don't know how long it took, maybe half a day, maybe a day. Zhou Haobin had walked to a state of numbness, and finally a heavy voice came from the darkness: "You, do you want to leave?" ”
This voice was like a person who was about to die of thirst in the desert meeting an oasis, and the instinctive trend of survival forced Zhou Haobin to nod: "Yes." ”
"Then, after you defeat these monsters, I'll let you out."
Knowing that there was hope to leave this ghost place, Zhou Haobin rekindled hope in his heart.
So, in the darkness, a figure kept running around, dodging the blood-red monster that fell from the sky, and at the same time cast a spell to kill it.
The first wave, ten spiders.
The second wave, ten pythons.
The third wave, ten fierce bulls.
Fourth and Fifth Waves......
After cleaning up the ninth wave, a heavy voice sounded again: "The last wave." Zhou Haobin couldn't help wiping his forehead, showing a relaxed smile, and finally went out.
In an instant, several bright lights appeared in the darkness, illuminating the last wave of monsters. Zhou Haobin was thinking that the final monster appearance was really grand, but when he saw the appearance of the monster clearly, Dons was stunned in place, how could it be them?
