Chapter 170: The Invisible Castle
……
The night is gone, and the sun is rising. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As the time moved to the afternoon somewhere in Eastern Europe, the sun was setting in the west, and the sunset was as brilliant as blood still rushing in the blood, and the sky seemed to be rolling and burning with large fiery clouds.
A team of Global Darkness players and a large number of well-armed Chinese soldiers are slowly approaching the foot of the fog-shrouded forest.
At the entrance to the forest, two kilometers away from where they were staying, there were traces of an artificial path, but it seemed that no one had walked on it all year round, and it had been deserted.
Through the binoculars, you can even see that the path is overgrown with weeds, vines, and a thick layer of moss has grown on the paving stone slabs. Some of the slabs were also pushed out of their original position due to the developed root systems of the surrounding trees.
It looks like the trail hasn't been walked for hundreds of years.
"It is almost certainly in the Capasion Mountains of Romania in eastern Europe, and the ancient buildings around this mountain range are all in the medieval Austro-Hungarian style...... Are your experts mistaken? How can there be a high-power wireless signal transmission tower in such a ghost place? ”
A fair-skinned, leather-armoured, longbow-bearing young man stood on a boulder below the forest and looked out before asking the soldiers below who were armed with hot weapons.
"You can't go wrong with the response of our signal detectors. Especially now that radio transmitters around the world have been damaged, it is even less likely that it will be interfered with. One of the soldiers, a technician with eyes, explained meticulously.
"But there has been no sign of human movement around the forest for a long time...... Do they still fly when they go out of the mountains and forests? ”
The young man with the bow and arrow on his back retorted impatiently.
"It's not that it's not possible......"
The bespectacled technician pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and continued, "Our opponents are most likely not humans, at least not ordinary humans. At the previous work meeting, the superiors had already emphasized it repeatedly. ”
"It's not an ordinary human, can you be sure what it is? Bloodsucker? Werewolf? Or a player? ”
A middle-aged man in the team with a knight's shield asked with a serious face.
He is the leader of this team of players, with a wealth of experience and a steady approach. It's different from the boy in the team who came to mix qualifications. Naturally, it is clear that in the final analysis, this transnational operation is only an investigation, and the specific handling personnel will not be their turn at all.
"Maybe it's just one of them, maybe it's all of them...... The Kapathsion Mountains are indeed home to many legends and legends throughout the world, and almost all of Europe's known superstitions are gathered in this horseshoe-shaped mountain range. ”
After a pause, the eyed technician said in a more cautious tone: "And the world-famous legend of vampires and werewolves comes from here!" Judging by the identity of our opponents, it is impossible to say that there are no such creatures to guard the door. ”
"Cut~! What kind of dumb puzzle are you guys playing?
Whether it's a vampire or a werewolf, it's not like I haven't fought before. If you want me to say, we have to fight anyway, so we might as well kill it directly. Before it was dark, I took them in a nest. ”
The young man who was shot by this bow was inevitably a little irritable. In the combat meeting before departure, he simply slept from beginning to end, where did he know what the two were talking about.
"Midnight, don't be careless! There may be other advanced players lurking here, and if we rush to it, we will only put ourselves at a disadvantage. The paladin asked dissatisfied.
"Other players, who dares?! We are peripheral members of the Heavenly Palace. Are they living impatiently? …… OK, OK, you're the team leader. We'll go up again in the evening. ”
This is called the archer of the night, and it is obvious that the 'second generation disease' has reached an advanced stage. is used to being domineering, where have you ever taken this titular paladin leader in your eyes. Even though the other party's dissatisfied eyes glared fiercely, he didn't pay much attention to it.
If it weren't for the fact that the members of the outer parts of the Heavenly Palace were also managed like the army, with strict levels of superiors and subordinates, and they couldn't easily contradict their superiors, he wouldn't even stop the words of the paladin.
Seeing him like this, the technician with the eyes before gently pushed his eyes, hiding the slight sneer on his face.
……
After nightfall, a series of sturdy figures walked through the forest paths.
There were no lights, no torches, but the night vision goggles they wore on each of them could see the road that was about to be buried under the fallen leaves.
Dozens of minutes later, in a recess of a mountain that was still a few hundred meters away from the lightless castle on the top of the mountain, the group gathered again.
It was the bespectacled technician who spoke first: "They're definitely hiding here." The signal detector in my ear was already deafening. The place where the other party is hiding should be the top of the mountain. The night vision goggles didn't respond ......"
Hear him say that. The paladin leader on the side also came over:
"There should be a large magic array in front of me that absorbs the light and various waves, I can't see the other party's hiding place clearly, and I can only feel a faint magic breath. But after the mountain wind blows here, it is obviously much smaller. There must be some huge structure standing in our way. ”
"But once I've found out here, I'm afraid I can't go back and explain. After all, we didn't even see each other's shadows. "An older non-mainstream player, interjected.
He had dyed white hair, a rough beard, a leather coat and a cape, and all kinds of bombs, flashbangs, and smoke bombs on his belt and waistcoat, as well as a silver rapier.
"Unmanned reconnaissance aircraft have been sent to the team to explore high places. It's better for everyone to be calm," the man in glasses suggested.
……
"You discuss it slowly, I'll go and make it easier for you first. After discussing the results in a while, call me again. Ling Ye turned away impatiently.
There was a clear look of arrogance on his face, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes when he heard the hesitant words of those people. But now the darkness that everyone is in is very good at hiding a trace of disdain.
"Hmph."
After leaving the group for some distance, a contemptuous snort came out of Ling Ye's mouth. I only heard him say coldly:
"At most, it's a bunch of man-made beasts. Even if you can dominate in front of ordinary people, how can you match the strength of the player's skills. Wait for me to personally pull out this group of hidden rats, and see if you leaders who only know how to talk about how to underestimate me still dare to underestimate me. ”
After hiding in the darkness, Ling Ye left silently with the swift footsteps brought by the high agility of the Amazon profession. Not even the battle-hardened soldiers who were close at hand noticed his departure.
It wasn't until ten minutes later that the leader of the paladin sensed something abnormal. After some searching, there was no trace of Ling Ye. (To be continued.) )
