578 Landing on the Endless Isle
Splashing nearly 100 square meters of various gem powder on the entire teleportation circle, the onlookers' eyes were a little red, and for the first time intuitively understood the wealth and luxury of the mage profession, sprinkled with a hundred square meters of gem powder, how much does this have to be?
Under the guidance of the high-level mages and after repeating the important precautions, each member of the participating team received an off-white diamond-shaped hedron about the size of a fingernail, and in the center of the hedr, a vague arcane rune flashed.
This is a [Teleportation Guide Crystal], something that can only be made by high-level mages (5th and 6th ranks), which is equivalent to a positioning system, and after it is broken, it will be pulled back from the place where it was teleported over, and its function is probably similar to the Hearthstone and Huicheng Stone in traditional online games.
It can be said that this is the only thing that can save the lives of the players who participated in the Chief War this time in times of danger, and if they plan to abandon the game, they can use it to return to the city of Aoraon.
After receiving the [Teleportation Guide Crystal], the team participating in the chief war, in groups, stood on the teleportation array, at this time, Wutong understood why the old man Zemur reminded him not to have too many people, a teleportation array of only one hundred square meters was also divided into twelve teleportation areas, each area is less than ten square size, squeezed at most can stand on a dozen people.
You know, this chief war is called "deathmatch", and only the top twelve teams can get the ranking in the end, in order to ensure that no massacre breaks out at the waypoint immediately after the teleportation passes, or the waypoint is guarded, so the teleportation drop point is random.
In the case of only a dozen people standing in a teleportation area, no matter how many people you have in the group, only the dozen or so people who teleport together will be together, and the rest of the team will be randomly teleported to other areas, which prevents those teams with a large number of people from fighting the small teams with a large number of people.
Wutong and Infinity looked at each other tacitly, and looked at a large team of thousands of people in the participating team with sympathy, these buddies are here to be rabbits, right? If you disperse the teleportation, it is equivalent to sending the people in your team as prey.
Although frightened by the rules of "death match", nearly two-thirds of the semi-finalist teams with a soy sauce mentality withdrew, but there are still more than 100 remaining teams, nearly half of which are large teams with hundreds of people. After they saw the teleportation mode of the teleportation circle, they were directly dumbfounded, but they were not allowed to exit after receiving the [Teleportation Guide Crystal].
And the rest of the team, most of them are also composed of dozens of people, at least three batches for teleportation, like the Sycamore and they only have a team of twelve people.
The chief team of the Arcane Academy on the Kovarray continent has a total of about twenty or thirty teams, but there are only twelve seed teams, that is, the team led by the disciples who master the "tower masters" of the Endless Tower.
Wutong and their seeded teams were arranged to teleport at the back, because in all respects, the members of these seeded teams had a much stronger advantage than those non-seeded teams, and they had to leave others a way to live, so they obtained the right to teleport first.
After those big teams teleported away first, half a day passed, and even the twelve ** divisions who supported the operation of the teleportation array changed several waves, and finally it was the turn of the seeded teams like Wutong.
Although he almost got numb in his legs, no one left the scene, and when he came back, they were all looking at each other, judging the strength of the other teams.
As the first team was teleported away, the infinite group of them who stood next to Sycamore was super playful, and kept whispering to Indus to introduce the "acquaintances" he saw, and Sycamore grinned vigorously, good guys! In every team, almost all of them are super played, and some are even composed of all super plays, and the "Chief War" is simply renamed "Super Play War".
The last round of teleportation was finally the turn of the seeded teams of Wutong and them, and there were only a dozen people who had a very tacit understanding, so they had to make everyone wary of each other, and without limiting the number of people, it was estimated that it was not a fuel-efficient lamp to participate in the competition with such a small number of people.
After standing on his own teleportation area, because Wutong was close to the inner circle of the core of the teleportation array, Wutong took the opportunity to glance at the crystal embedded in the core of the magic circle that made him feel familiar, but before he could see it clearly, the ** masters, who had already been impatient, did not say a word, and directly teleported them out.
As soon as the white light flashed, the picture in front of them appeared in a glade!
"Bang" The people who came out with knives and axes surrounded the Dharma in the inner circle, and after carefully observing the surroundings for a while, they relaxed, and the insects and birds in the glade seemed to be very quiet and peaceful, the so-called "secret realm" was not as imagined, there were terrifying dark clouds floating in the sky, and terrible magma was bubbling on the ground.
"This seems like an island? And we're not far from the sea. ”
Orc Battle Grom loosened his nose and smelled a faint smell of sea in the air.
After observing the surrounding trees, Wutong, who found that it was similar to the plants on the Trial Island, nodded: "The 'Secret Realm' was originally located in the depths of the 'Endless Sea', and it is estimated that it is also an island like the Trial Island. ”
"What shall we do now?"
The invincible hammer carried his big hammer to his shoulder, and looked at Wutong with a big grin, Wutong was the captain, and the next action naturally had to be arranged by him.
Wutong took out a quest scroll, which was given to him by the old mage who gave him the task before stepping on the teleportation circle, and by the way, he also threw a spell at the bodies of these people, which was probably the terrible [Soul Barrier].
Opening the scroll, the Infinity Probe came over to take a look, but found that the scroll that Wutong got was blank, and said in amazement: "No word? You can't make a mistake, right? ”
"It's weird if you can see it!"
Sycamore rolled his eyes and injected arcane energy into the scroll, and a row of arcane words gradually appeared in the blank space on the scroll: "This is the legendary 'Endless Island', a great spellcaster, where Elarion is said to live"
In just one sentence, Wutong couldn't help but have a toothache, the tasks in "Endless" are always vague, there is no so-called clear instructions at all, you can only follow the clues step by step to know what the ending of the task is, and a thousand people doing the same task, it is likely that there will be a thousand different endings.
Rolling up the task scroll and stuffing it into his pocket, Wutong looked up and found that the sunlight had begun to turn west, and said, "Let's go!" Take a look around first and see if you can touch someone, or something. ”
Everyone glanced at each other and shrugged their shoulders, and there was no need for anyone to command, Infinity and Hammer consciously one after the other, serving as pathfinder and vigilance respectively, while Fat Fallen Sky and Grom were on the left and right of the mages to prevent anyone from raiding, only the invincible hammer and the three days of life complained: "Greenskin!" Are you embarrassed to stand in the line? ”
"I can't stand in the line for Mao? I'm a wizard and belong to the legal system, right? ”
"Bang! Just your head, standing in the team is like a lighthouse, there is a hair!? ”
"That's better than a guy who was not discovered by the enemy and accidentally stepped on to death!"
Having said this, the two-headed troll wizard thought about it, put away his wand, took out a tower shield and a huge mace, and stood on the periphery of the group, causing everyone to break out in a cold sweat.
Indeed, he didn't wear makeup for his appearance as a melee professional, and no one would have thought that a two-headed troll armed with a tower shield and mace, and couldn't be killed no matter how he fought it, would be a legal profession, right? Suddenly threw the mace, took out a witch wand and cursed wildly, the most hilarious of the yin man and the horse.
After thinking about it, Sycamore opened the [Parcel Trap] and released the four barrier warriors and two followers of the pseudo-elf girl who were hiding inside, and in the forest, in order to ensure that they were not ambushed, the two wanderers were a little weaker.
Wood raised his wrist and spewed out a stream of filaments, "whooshing" like Spider-Man flew up to the canopy above the Sycamore's head, disappeared into the foliage, and entered the forest as a shapeshifting spider, just like entering its lair, its natural home field.
Zara, on the other hand, leaned against a large tree and disappeared, and the Shapeshifter talent she gained after evolution allowed it to remain stealthy without losing its speed, which allowed it to remain invisible and follow them at all times.
Wutong easily summoned the mount [Giant Fangs and Wild Boar] Agua and [Animal Companion] Storm Ape Embarrassment, and let the three girls of Lingyue Frost and Snow, Mayan Melody, and Cloud Light Wind sit on it, and the evolved Agua is smaller and limited than the rhinoceros, and it is as safe to ride on it as it is to ride in an armored car, regardless of the thorns and shrubs.
And embarrassed, in the forest is no different from in its house, the embarrassed man with a big stick on his back excitedly hammered his chest, jumped on a big tree, grabbed the branches above everyone's heads, and walked faster than them.
With the Druid Eagle here, the forest that should have been very dangerous and difficult to walk on has become very safe and smooth, and with him opening the way in front, a [through the forest] skill is enough to make the dense bushes and trees automatically separate a path, and after they pass, they will close again, otherwise the druid will be known as the "son of the forest".
After walking without saying a word for nearly half a day, in the dense forest where the branches and leaves blocked the sky, they couldn't tell if it was already night, and they had never been able to leave the range of the forest. Are you sure we're going in the wrong direction? ”
It would be a fool not to find a druid guide in the forest, so the eagle touched the big tree beside him, nodded and said, "We have only walked half the way, and it is estimated that we will have to walk for half a day to leave this forest." ”
The dwarf with the big hammer looked enviously at the sycamore and the three girls sitting on the back of the huge boar, and muttered and complained, "I hate the forest!" I hate trees! Feed! Mage, I don't have a suitable mount, so give me your boar, right? ”
With his height, standing in the thick grass of the forest, with only his head exposed, he had to constantly lift his toes to see the road ahead, lest he crash headlong into a tree.
The dwarves who live in the mines usually use earth lizards as mounts, and on the ground, ordinary horses can't carry them at all, don't look at the dwarves, the bones are full of muscles, plus the dwarven heavy armor, there are really not many mounts that can carry them around.
"Why didn't we go to the beach before?"
The orc frenzy was also a little frustrating, and the druid didn't let him cut down the bushes and branches that stood in his way, which caused him to get his legs tangled in vines for a while, and his head to hit a thick branch that was growing horizontally, and he was about to go crazy.
"Nonsense, if we do the task, we will inevitably go to the center of the island, where do you plan to go to the sea?"
The druid said angrily: "And this is an uninhabited island, do you think that you can find a village by walking around the sea like the island of trials?" ”
Three days of life without pressure to carry the mace next to the wild boar, but as tall as the sycamore sitting on the back of Agua, one head turned around to be on guard, and the other head turned around and asked the sycamore curiously: "It's strange to say?" Aren't there so many people participating in deathmatches? Why haven't we touched a single one after walking for so long? ”
"How do I know! According to the clues that are known so far, this secret realm is located in the depths of the 'Endless Sea', but have you heard that the Endless Sea belongs to the ocean around Kovare? I suspect that the Endless Sea is another plane at all, and our previous Trial Island is estimated to be around this Endless Island. ”
Wutong, who was studying the mess in his dimensional bag, raised his head, thought for a while and added: "If you don't guess wrong, this Endless Island is one of the main islands in the Endless Sea, just listen to the name, so although it is an island, but the area is far beyond our imagination, the more than 100 teams participating in the competition, counting those large teams of hundreds or thousands of people, are only tens of thousands of people, and it is normal to sprinkle into such a large island, and it is normal not to touch it, right?" ”
A dwarf drowning in the grass muffled his opinion: "I hate the island! Feed! Mage, don't play dumb! What about the question I just asked you! Give me your boar? Don't you have a dragon eagle? ”
Wutong was about to reply, when a strange cry suddenly came from the front, which sounded like some kind of owl's call, everyone suddenly stopped and pulled out their weapons, and the hammer in front of them ran back quickly: "Be careful! There's a big bunch of ferocious badgers rushing in! ”
Everyone was stunned, badgers are very common in the forest, but the fierce badgers, which have evolved into arcane beasts, are mostly alone, how can they gather together to act?
Without waiting for everyone to react, from the grass in front of them, a group of flower-faced and ferocious badgers about the size of wild boars rushed out, roaring wildly, and frantically pounced in front of everyone.
The wild boar mentioned here is of course not a big guy like Agua, but an ordinary size wild boar, but it is also very amazing, the normal badger is only about the size of a domestic cat or dog, and it has evolved to the size of a wild boar, which is already very huge.
And the claws and teeth of this monster are very terrifying, they can burrow through the ground at a rapid speed, and it only takes less than half a minute to gnaw down a towering tree, and the hard trunk is in their mouth, no different from sugar cane.
The crowd cast spells, picked up the hammer and axe, picked up the hammer and axe, but before they could attack, the druid let out a long howl, and the manic and ferocious badgers stopped neatly like soldiers who heard the password, and turned their heads to look at the druids in confusion.
"Don't attack!"
The druid whispered, then gestured behind his back to stop them in place, and walked slowly over himself.
An astonishing scene appeared, the originally crazy ferocious badgers, both eyes were blood-red, but after the druid approached and released a pale green halo, they quieted down, and the blood in their little eyes gradually dissipated, and they quieted down and sat in place.
The flail eagle walked directly into the middle of the group of fierce badgers, which numbered about dozens, and slowly reached out to touch the head of one of the largest fierce badgers, and everyone held their breath nervously, for fear that the fierce badger would suddenly go crazy and bite off the druid's hand with a mouthful.
Originally, the leader of the ferocious badger saw the flail eagle reaching out to him, and took a step back to make an attacking motion, and let out a low roar in his throat, warning the druid not to insult himself, but when the druid's palm was gently pressed on its head, the low roar in the throat of the leader of the ferocious badger gradually subsided, and then his eyes became docile, and even twisted his head and rubbed his palm a few times, stretched out his tongue and licked it in his palm.
Everyone looked at the druids who were surrounded by a large group of wild boar-sized, furry and ferocious badgers, and couldn't help but look weird, this picture was really too cute, badgers were not angry, when they were not angry, they actually looked quite honest, dozens of such a big badger gathered together, approached the druid, sniffed around him, and a few of them rubbed their heads on him!
Sycamore's sharp eyes saw that one of them even lifted its hind legs to sweat, did they think the druid was a big tree?
The druids let out a strange chirp and the badgers cooed, and after a moment of communication, the fierce badger leader suddenly screamed, and a large group of furry creatures scattered in all directions.
The druid looked back: "There's trouble!" ”
