Chapter 384: Return to the Fortress (I)

I originally wanted to upload it earlier, but I forgot the jì time of the result code-

Good night everyone-

The hazy night gradually spread in the dark forest, and in the forest to the northeast, about one hundred and fifty kilometers from the fortress of Zela, an abandoned temple slowly gathered a large number of black points of light. These points of light slowly rotated around a tall idol on the ground, and then slowly fell into the ground to form a human illusion, and over time this shadow gradually solidified into a real person. This is the scene when the wild player is resurrected, very weird and eerie, if it is a dark night, it is estimated that you will be scared to death if you see the timid. Because when that black-gray point of light was cast on the ground, the appearance of the figure was too similar to the undead who came out of hell.

The resurrection from the dark temple is none other than Chen Kai, who was beaten to ashes by thunder and lightning, he is the last player to be resurrected from this wild temple, and the players who hang up in front of him as long as they are within the range of the Demon Gate are basically resurrected in this wild dilapidated temple about a hundred kilometers away from the Demon Gate. However, although this temple is small, it is very vast outside, and the primeval jungle covers the whole field of vision.

Looking at the green eyes, Chen Kai felt that the depression of being killed by thunder and lightning immediately turned into a kind of fear, because he found that he was naked, and all the equipment he wore on his body except for a pair of pants was gone. Looking at his clean and slippery body, Chen Kai's face immediately became not very good-looking, he immediately checked his backpack and then breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, his very important special holy deed and giant sword were still there, and the items in the entire backpack were all in good condition except for a demon war hammer that was picked up, and even the space ring was lying there obediently.

Putting on the set of star armor that had only been retired for a month again, Chen Kai's hanging heart finally settled down a little, and then slowly walked down the steps of the temple. However, he had to turn back to the steps of the temple after walking less than five steps, because he found that the bottom of the steps of the temple was actually suspended in the air, and beyond the dark view was a terrifying pit that could not be seen. Chen Kai estimated that if he was impatient, he would definitely step on the air, and then let out a long scream and walk out of the resurrection area of this abandoned temple again. With a cold sweat, Chen Kai returned to the platform of the temple and carefully checked the surrounding environment with the help of the faint moonlight, although the surrounding forest environment was still dark, but some traces could still be seen on the ground of the temple. For example, those thick dust, and messy footprints in the dust, it is obvious that Chen Kai is not the only player who has been resurrected in this temple.

When Chen Kai got up from the ground and was about to leave, there was a sound of footsteps from inside the temple, and he didn't think about it, he took out the giant sword from his backpack and looked towards the place where the sound came from. At the same time, the heavy fighting qi on his body exploded instantly, forming a burning faint fighting flame, although Chen Kai's strength was not very strong just now, but the fighting qi value was enough for him to burst out once. Of course, the milky white fighting flame not only has a powerful combat ability, but also acts as an incandescent lamp, at least in this pitch-black environment, the bright light that erupts on Chen Kai's body is absolutely the top of a 500-watt bulb.

The incandescent light illuminated the steps of the entire temple, and at the same time startled the people who groped in the temple, but soon the flames on Chen Kai's body gradually subsided, because he found that it was Su Wan and Lu Xiaofeng, who had just been resurrected, who slowly came out of the temple, and a few players who hung up in front of him, obviously they had just gone online and walked out of the resurrection point at the same time. Chen Kai was not surprised by Su Wan's appearance, after all, they lived under the same roof, and they had just finished a big meal outside. Don't think it's just an ordinary group dinner, together with Su Xinghe, they had a good meal in the villa's restaurant to make up for the long-owed stomach. Therefore, Chen Kai did not have any surprises about Su Wan, who was blushing and drank a little wine, but Lu Xiaofeng, who had been hanging up for a long time earlier than him, only appeared now, which made Chen Kai feel a little strange, because in his opinion, the other party should have left this abandoned temple a long time ago.

"Don't look at me like that, I just came up and took you away, who asked me to draw lots and draw an unlucky errand lot, in fact, I came up a long time ago but was kicked here to bring people!" Lu Xiaofeng looked like he was losing his home, in fact, he felt that he was quite unlucky, hundreds of people drew lots, but he, who had been very lucky, drew this errand job, and said that it was not easy to do the work of running errands to lead the way.

In fact, when Chen Kai saw the big pit with his back against the wall of the temple and the depth of the pit below, he finally understood why Lu Xiaofeng's face was so ugly. At first, you can only slowly move along the wall against the wall, and in the end, you need to climb the broken rocks carefully, and if you accidentally step on the wrong step, you will fall directly into the dark pit and run back to the temple again.

Some places have been completely cut off by the trees growing out of the rocks, and huge cracks of two or three meters long continue to appear on the road, if it were not for the wooden planks laid on it, it is estimated that Chen Kai would not have been able to climb through those areas intact. This is still a situation where someone leads the way, if there is no one to lead the way, it is difficult for Chen Kai to imagine how much the people in front of him have spent to find out this road.

The whole road is not very long, only about three miles away, mainly because there are too many crooked turns on the road, and even Lu Xiaofeng, the one who led the way, made mistakes several times and almost didn't bring Chen Kai and them into the big pit. But fortunately, the more you go to the back, the easier it is to walk, otherwise Chen Kai and they don't know how long they will wander in this temple area covering an area of thousands of square meters, and this temple area is not very safe, on the way, Chen Kai and they encountered several shaking skeleton soldiers. Although these skeletons are all very rubbish, they look like they will fall apart at any time when they walk, but their mobility is not bad, and they look like they can climb rocks with their bodies like apes. If Chen Kai and them were attacked by a large number of skeletons in a narrow place on the road, he would not be able to think of any way to avoid the attack of a dozen skeletons together except to commit suicide by jumping into the pit.

Of course, Chen Kai didn't have to worry about being attacked by more than a dozen skeletons together, because the largest wave of skeletons encountered during the whole journey was only three. It is said that most of the skeleton soldiers have been killed by the people in front of them, and their experience is very good~ Brain visit each can provide nearly 1000 points of experience, of course, in the case of a single kill. It's just that the number of skeletons is too small, and the haunted places are too remote, unless you encounter them on the road, there is not much leveling value. The most important thing is that their purpose is not to level up, but to return to the fortress early to rest, except for those who have a little stock in their backpacks, most of the players who hang up have lost one or two pieces of equipment, plus the weapons and equipment damaged in the battle along the way, and the entire mission unit is poorly equipped. The unlucky Zhao Tiezhu's armor of the Earth Temple was left with a shield plus a cuirass and helmet, and the others were either damaged or lost, which was completely turned into a defective suit.

When Chen Kai arrived at the outskirts of the temple area, many shirtless players were drinking the last remaining liquor on the campsite and singing and dancing around the campfire. Of course, their ghostly wolf-like voices were enough to scare any animal around them that dared to approach, and naturally there was no artistic atmosphere. However, in this environment, no one cares about any artistic atmosphere or whether the singing is good or not, the only thing you need is to vent that frustration, which is the most common and favorite method for players, especially those in Bloody mode. Shouted at the top of his throat without any scruples, and then slowly anesthetized himself under the strong drinks in the game, and then found a warm place to sleep well, and woke up the next day and immediately became very energetic. Of course, there is also a reason for systematic mental hypnosis, this kind of auxiliary hypnosis is controlled by the outside world, and it belongs to the means of psychological treatment that has been verified, and the process of mental hypnosis is automatically recorded by the system every time, and then it is documented after filing. Of course, it is estimated that no one will check it, because so far no country has set up an institution dedicated to managing this part of the players, and all the information is ultimately stored in the main brain memory of Siyuan Company.

In the middle of the camp are two huge bonfires burning, and on either side of the bonfire are a row of four roast wild boars, and the fragrant smell of roast pork hooks Chen Kai's stomach slowly gurgling. Although he has eaten a lot outside of the game, the in-game character's stomach is still empty, and his body value is already close to the red zone after a long walk.

"Hey~~ Hi! Brother Kai, you're here! Huh~~" T-boy walked to Chen Kai's side with a wine burp, looked at Chen Kai with his pair of red eyes, and then wanted to pat him on the shoulder. It's just that in the case of drunkenness, T didn't shoot Chen Kai's body, but slapped it halfway through, and then the whole person turned into a rolling snoring and rolled to the ground at once.

"Huh! T-boy, this drunk cat, only drank so much and got drunk, it's really useless! Well, it seems that I'm almost there, and I'll leave the matter of Brother Kai's vigil to you! The dagger lay on the ground not far away, with several bags of liquor lying horizontally beside him, and after he finished speaking, he fell asleep directly on the ground in a very ugly position. His ass was facing the sky, his head was on the ground, and one hand reached out to his ass and scratched it from time to time.

"This sleeping statue is embarrassed to say that his brother, it's just as useless!" Chen Kai looked at the sleeping appearance of the dark dagger for a while, and then his eyes swept over the entire camp to find that most of the people were sitting on the ground eating or sleeping after getting drunk, and only a few unlucky ones were guarding various places in the camp. The whole camp looks very simple, with its back to the platform behind the temple, and then a wooden fence is used as a fence to create a camp of hundreds of square meters.

All the tents were arranged around a campfire in the middle of the camp, and the entrance and exit were facing the two huge campfires, so that anyone who tried to enter the tent would be exposed to all the guards. At the same time, there were also several small bonfires set up at the back of the camp, where guards in groups of five or six players greeted Chen Kai with their barbecue and spirits raised when they saw Chen Kai coming.

"Eat slowly! But don't drink too much, I don't want to be touched to bed by skeleton soldiers in the middle of the night! Chen Kai patted the player who greeted him, and then cut a piece of meat from the pork leg they were leaning on and ate it. Of course, Chen Kai couldn't be completely full, so after checking the surrounding environment, he directly cut a piece of fat roast pork from the four roast wild boars in the central barbecue, then picked up a bag of spirits and sat at the door of the camp, replacing the player who was originally guarding here.

Not long after Chen Kai just sat down, Su Xinghe, who was originally sitting in the distance and drinking with others, also walked over with a roast pig's trotter, looking at Chen Kai who was chewing slowly on the ground, he directly bit the pig's trotter in his hand with his big mouth, and then poured a mouthful of liquor into his mouth. This action looks very heroic, but with those oil stains on Su Xinghe's mouth, it is a bit sloppy.

"How about it, what skills did you get this time?" Su Xinghe sat next to Chen Kai, and then patted Chen Kai's shoulder with his dirty hand and asked.

"Why don't you talk about your skills first?" Chen Kai looked up at Su Xinghe and then asked with a smile, he knew that his friend was not just a subordinate of the studio. This former professional gamer has begun to slowly regain his former momentum, except that his luck is still not very good, and he is basically a master among the players in the game.

“…… My skills are not as good as yours, let me take a look at your skills first! The pillar's new skill is awesome, Body of the Earth, not only passively increases defense by 30% but also directly increases HP by 15%, which is almost a passive talent. Unfortunately, the CD is too long, it can only be used once in six hours and lasts only ten minutes. Su Xinghe was obviously very envious of Zhao Tiezhu's skills, of course he was envious, but he wouldn't want that skill, because no matter how you look at it, this skill is a standard MT defense skill. In fact, he is quite satisfied with his new skill, which happens to be a skill that can increase his combat power and explosiveness.

"Good skill, now our pillar is a powerful MT!" Chen Kai listened to Su Xinghe's words and nodded with a smile, although Zhao Tiezhu's skill did not last long enough and the cd time was long, but when it came to usability and effect, it was definitely against the sky. It's just that Chen Kai couldn't help but be a little worried when he smiled, because the skills given by the system would definitely not be so rebellious, and the thirty percent defense enhancement and fifteen percent life enhancement were really a bit too much.

"Of course, there is another drawback, after using it, the time attribute is halved in one day!" Su Xinghe looked at Chen Kai and fell silent after laughing, naturally knowing what he was thinking, all skills have their flaws, the stronger the skill flaws, the bigger the flaws. Like Chen Kai's berserk state, it is definitely a skill against the sky, but unfortunately after using it, there is a chance of more than 80% being kicked off the line by the system because of his unstable mental state, which makes people very depressed. And even if you don't kick the line, if you don't replenish the body in time, you will hang up because the body is exhausted, which is the heaviest punishment among the skills.

"What about yours?" Chen Kai raised his head and asked Su Xinghe, he should have obtained better skills than the other party when he died later than Zhao Tiezhu, but according to Chen Kai's estimate, this good situation is relatively limited. Of course, looking at Su Xinghe's expression, it is estimated that the skill should be quite appetizing to him, and it is estimated that it is a relatively good combat skill.

"Not bad! Boiling Blood, which burns 10% of its vitality for a short period of time in exchange for a temporary increase of 5% in power, and skills can be stacked up to 5 times, and the effect of each stack of strength increase is reduced by 1%. CD time is not, but it only lasts for three minutes, and the health is retained for three hours after the battle is over. Su Xinghe was quite satisfied with his skill, because it was able to increase his strength by fifteen percent in a short period of time, and the punishment was relatively not particularly heavy, which was within an acceptable range.

"Of course, there is another state of burning life, directly burning 50% of your health in exchange for a 25% increase in strength in a minute. However, the punishment is heavier, and after the effect disappears, it will weaken for half an hour, and the health will be restored to 50% at most in five hours! Su Xinghe's next words made Chen Kai feel very surprised, because according to his description, this skill can be regarded as a very peculiar and rare dual-effect skill, at least he has never heard of which skill can have two effects.

"Pretty good, but the punishment is a little heavier!" Chen Kai listened to Su Xinghe's words and simulated the combat effect of this skill in his mind and the relative price to be paid, with Su Xinghe's current strength, after five stacks, his strength is definitely close to that of a sixth-order ordinary monster, and the power obtained by burning half of his life is close to that of a sixth-order elite monster, which means that his attack power can be comparable to that of a sixth-order professional in a short period of time.

"That's it! I'm done, what about yours? As soon as Su Xinghe's words fell, he found Chen Kai standing up, and then a white light appeared behind him, and a pair of pure white with golden wings instantly appeared behind him, and at the same time, Chen Kai pulled out his giant sword from behind.

"Possessed by the Battle Angel, it consumes 500 points of fighting energy and 500 points of mana, lasts for three minutes, increases 10% of attributes, increases 5% of defense and 500 points of vitality, and attaches 100 points of divine power damage to each attack. CD time for one day, after the state disappears, the health value of the body lì value drops by 50 percent, and it cannot be restored within six hours. Also wake up all the drunken cats who can still get up and fight, we've got guests coming! After Chen Kai finished speaking, he stood up directly from the ground, and slashed a sword towards the dark forest, a lone wolf hiding in the shadows instantly got out of hiding under the light of the light on his body, and then roared towards Chen Kai.

"Grass! Enemy attack, you drunken cats, don't drink, hurry up, the shadow wolf is coming! Su Xinghe saw that the eyes of the two-meter-long black giant wolf suddenly burst out, and then directly omitted the gorgeous effect of Chen Kai's skill and shouted loudly to the people in the camp.

"NND, in fact, Lao Tzu wants to be steel and stone skin~555, why don't you give me that skill!" Chen Kai lamented in his heart, in fact, he was not interested in this very handsome looking skill at all. Don't look at this skill, but in Chen Kai's opinion, it is not as effective as the passive skill of the steel stone skin, if Chen Kai is allowed to change, he would rather change the two skills to the steel stone skin than get these two skills. Yes, two skills, because Chen Kaike not only completed the same task as Su Xinghe and them, but also completed the task of Van Kry, and both tasks rewarded him with a skill. It's just that compared to this war angel possession, another skill is even more scummy, an intermediate healing light. The standard nurse skill can no longer be standard, so that Chen Kai feels like he has become a priest after seeing the new skill in the skill bar.

It's not that the intermediate healing glow is not good, at least Chen Kai thinks that just the healing effect is much better than the healing techniques mastered by Chen Yi and the two priests. Although it can't directly treat serious injuries, it can close a broken wound in a short time, and of course, the magic consumed is also very amazing. Every second that the healing technique lasts, the mana consumed increases by 200 points, generally speaking, it takes at least 10 seconds to heal a cut damage of up to ten centimeters, and in addition to the 500 points of mana required to activate it, it also takes 2000 points of mana to completely turn the wound into a scar, with Chen Kai's current magic power, it is basically impossible, so this healing technique is directly classified by him into the ranks of chicken ribs.

In addition to the frustration of the amount of mana consumed by healing, the fact that it can only be healed once every three hours makes it even more frustrating. Chen Kai found that this skill was useless except for emergency ambulance, of course, it could be used to restore vitality in an emergency during battle, after all, its release time only took three seconds, and the instant recovery of two hundred health points was enough for Chen Kai to do a lot of things. But in Chen Kai's opinion, this treatment technique is still a chicken rib, after all, its effect is only a little better than the slight treatment that Chen Kai mastered.

"! These guys are crazy to play, right? Chen Kai looked back at the camp depressedly, at this moment, there were less than fifty players who staggered to stand up, plus players who had not drunk, and there were more than sixty shadow wolves that Chen Kai saw outside, which was definitely a large wolf pack.

"A bunch of drunken cats! Get up for Lao Tzu! Chen Kai roared angrily, but unfortunately his words had no effect on these sleeping players at all. In fact, before the dark daggers, they still searched a few kilometers around the temple, and after they didn't find any enemies, they were relieved to drink and have fun, in their opinion, it only took a few dozen people to kill the skeletons that ran out of the temple, so they relaxed. But they never imagined that it was not other monsters in the forest, but these giant wolves that could hide in the shadows. When the daggers searched the forest, they were actually targeted, but they just wanted to catch them all.

"Guard the wooden wall for Lao Tzu, otherwise everyone will be finished!" Su Xinghe raised the demon giant sword in his hand and roared, but he felt a lot of pressure when he looked at the lonely people around him, and there were too many drunk people. Although Su Xinghe also has wine in his backpack, he won't drink more, even if he looks like he is full of alcohol at the moment, but he spills more than he drinks, I don't know how much.
