Chapter 288: The Beast Tide is Coming
Before casting the secret technique of rebirth, Xia Hao noticed that there was no mention of the method of dissolving the secret technique on the dark secret codex.
Moreover, at that time, Xia Hao was not sure whether he could use the secret technique on the dark secret codex, so naturally he would not consider the issue of lifting the secret technique.
Now, the secret technique has been successfully cast, and how to remove it has become Xia Hao's problem.
Xia Hao's current Inhuman attribute is completely new to the game, and all the skills of his Beastmaster Summoner class are in a gray unusable state.
The only thing that made Xia Hao feel a little at ease was the silver equipment on Xia Hao's body, which was not forcibly lifted.
"Now I can only wait and see, I hope this secret technique has a time limit, and it will be automatically lifted when the time comes." Xia Hao thought in his heart.
The Inhuman child who appeared in front of Xia Hao saw that Xia Hao was a little stunned, so he asked, "Are you okay?" ”
Xia Hao was worried about his own state just now, and he had almost forgotten about this Inhuman child, and when he heard him speak again, he hurriedly replied: "I'm fine, where is this?" ”
"This is the Inhuman Valley of the Dark Forest, where we Inhumans have lived for generations. My name is Anthony, what's your name? "The simple little Inhumans are enthusiastic and authentic.
"You call me Xiao Ming." Xia Hao replied.
"Uncle Ike, they found you unconscious at the mouth of the valley, so they brought you back and asked me to take care of you here." The dwarf's immature face glowed with excitement, as if he had done something remarkable, "Uncle Ike is the elder of our village, and he is also the master who is the best at refining strange tools, and we all respect him!" ”
Xia Hao asked tentatively, "Anthony, do you know how to leave the Inhuman Valley?" ”
"The closest to the Inhuman Valley is Liberty City, where almost all races are located, and it's just south of the Inhuman Valley, and it takes three months to walk there......"
"Three months? How can I get there the fastest? "Xia Hao will not and cannot spend three months walking to Liberty City.
Anthony shook his head, "Normally, you can use the mobility device invented by our Inhumans, but now it's the time of the beast tide, and it's dangerous outside. ”
Anthony didn't understand Xiao Ming's idea of leaving the Inhuman Valley, and happily staying in the Inhuman Valley to learn how to refine the alien from Master Ike could already make Anthony, a little Inhuman who had never seen the world, happy for a lifetime.
At this moment, a truck full of ore passed by Xia Hao and Anthony.
The appearance of the truck is the same as that of a real-life truck, except that it completely ignores the rugged mountains and can be driven over with ease.
If Xia Hao hadn't learned in his previous life that the alien refining of the alien race was very special, he would definitely feel a little ridiculous at this moment.
"I'll take you to Master Ike, he's still waiting." Anthony said.
The Inhumans are very simple-minded, they saw that Xia Hao was also an Inhuman, so they completely regarded him as their own clan, and they didn't doubt Xia Hao's origin at all, and no one even asked why Xia Hao was in a coma at the mouth of the valley.
Xia Hao didn't see any houses along the way, the Inhumans all live in the damp underground, which makes Xia Hao very strange, with their technology, building high-rise buildings seems to be a piece of cake! It wasn't until he asked Anthony that Xia Hao knew that there were some very powerful birds and beasts living near the valley where the Inhumans lived, and they often attacked the villages of the Inhumans, and all the buildings would be completely destroyed wherever they passed.
Under the leadership of Anthony, Xia Hao finally met Master Ike, who was refining strange tools.
The process of refining strange tools of the Inhumans is more modern, to be precise, the workshop is a workshop, and the large tools that run are completely all kinds of mechanical lathes.
Master Ike is like an old skilled worker, he asked Xia Hao's origin slightly, and then believed Xia Hao's amnesia excuse, and then asked Anthony to take Xia Hao to help transport the ore first.
To put it simply, Xia Hao's current position is that of a transport driver.
Anthony led Xia Hao to the steel-refining workshop, where there were mountains of iron ore piled up, and the Inhumans who were in charge of iron smelting were putting these ores into the smelting furnace.
After receiving a truck, Xia Hao couldn't wait to start.
The truck has a 10-ton load and is 100% faster than it can be attacked by monsters.
With the sound of a "booming" motor, the truck starts.
The truck ignored the rugged canyon and was as smooth as driving on an asphalt road, with Anthony and Xia Hao sitting in the cab, the wind blowing Xia Hao's hair, as comfortable as driving in reality.
Soon, Xia Hao and Anthony arrived at the mine.
The scale of this mine of the Inhumans is no worse than that of the Xutian Clan, and this mine has been transformed into a very modern atmosphere, with a long mine tunnel going deep into the mine, and there are special wheeled vehicles to transport ore out along the mine road, and there are also forklifts to load the goods.
Xia Hao is only responsible for driving, and he just goes to pull every three hours, which is very easy.
Extremely bored, Xia Hao entered the forum, and then he used the dark forest as a keyword, he wanted to search for the information of the dark forest, but he didn't expect to find a post from a player.
"First aid! Please come in near the Inhuman Valley in the Dark Forest! This post has received a lot of views, but most of the respondents are curious about the location of the Dark Forest.
The signature of the post is Qingfeng, and he said in the post that the group accidentally entered the dark forest, only to get lost inside, and they couldn't return to the city in the forest, and cut off all contact with the outside world, and now they have run out of food, hoping that the players near the Inhuman Valley can help them.
You know, there is a hunger limit in the game, which affects the player's attributes, but it can be recovered by eating food, and these players are estimated to have eaten all the food they brought.
Although pieces of meat can be collected from the killed monsters, they can only be eaten after cooking by the chef, so most players will carry cooked food purchased by the system to restore hunger when they go out.
Xia Hao finally met a few players in the dark forest, and immediately tried to contact Qingfeng, and the other party quickly passed the friend verification.
"Xiao Ming?" Although there is tiredness in his voice, it sounds quite pleasant, but Xiao Ming will add himself as a friend, which obviously makes the other party a little strange.
Xia Hao said straight to the point: "I saw your post on the forum, I am now in the Inhuman Valley, where are you?" ”
"Are you really in the Dark Forest? Inhuman Valley? Qingfeng was excited, like a dying man seeing a chance to live, and he exclaimed, "We are near the entrance to the Inhuman Valley, there are too many monsters in the valley, we can't enter!" ”
"Monsters in the Inhuman Valley? Why didn't I see a monster in the Inhuman Valley? Xia Hao was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask directly, but said, "Okay, I'll go over immediately, you guys are waiting there." ”
Xia Hao heard that these people had indeed run out of food, and their voices were weak, which was because the hunger value was too low. Xia Hao asked Anthony to bring a lot of food from home, soft and delicious bread, sweet fruits, etc., and then drove the truck all the way to the exit of the Inhuman Valley.
The Inhuman village where Xia Hao is located is the closest to the entrance of the Inhuman Valley, and I heard Anthony say that there are still many Inhuman villages in the Inhuman Valley.
From the far distance, I saw a group of Inhuman warriors patrolling the entrance to the Inhuman Valley, and the leader Mambaro was the most powerful Inhuman warrior in the village, and he was holding a musket in his hand.
"Where are you going?" Mambaro asked.
Xia Hao poked his head out of the car window and said, "Oh, I drove out to have a look, and I already greeted Elder Ike." ”
"Well, you have to be careful, there are a lot of fierce beasts outside, and the beast tide is approaching, so it's not safe." Mambaro said without the slightest suspicion, waving his hand to make the patrolling Inhuman soldiers make a way, Xia Hao nodded at Mambarro, and drove out of the valley.
This is the first time Xia Hao has come out of the Inhuman Valley, outside the Inhuman Valley is an empty grassland, the grass is in the shape of a narrow belt, the grass is not wide, and then there is a dense forest of black pressure, and occasionally a few wolf howls and tiger roars make the already gloomy forest even more terrifying.
Xia Hao drove the truck slowly according to the position given by Qingfeng.
On the verdant grass lay a few people crookedly, all of them looking dejected in the hot sun.
The sound of a "booming" motor in the distance caught the attention of those people, and although they were already exhausted, the five players jumped to their feet and prepared for battle.
A truck staggered.
Qingfeng and the others saw the trucks that appeared in the game, and they all looked sluggish.
In the game, there are trucks?
The team felt that their common sense of the game had been completely turned upside down.
"It should be Xiao Ming who contacted me just now, you can't take it lightly, you still have to be careful before you get to know each other!" The sound of the breeze woke everyone up from the surprise of seeing the truck.
Xia Hao looked at the team of downtroopers in front of him in the car, and praised them in his heart. Ordinary people have long been exhausted physically and mentally, and although these people look embarrassed on the surface, judging from the formation they put on, the fighting spirit is still there.
"Is it the breeze? I'm here to bring you food! Xia Hao didn't get out of the car, but just asked the group outside from the window.
The leading barbarian player took a step forward, stopped three steps away from the car window, looked at Xia Hao and said, "I'm Qingfeng." ”
"I'm Xiao Ming." Xia Hao showed his name.
Seeing the name Xiao Ming, Qingfeng and the others were a little stunned, because the Xiao Ming with this name was not what they saw in front of them.
"You're really Xiao Ming? How did you become like this? The supernatural player in the Qingfeng team said openly.
Qingfeng pulled the supernatural person and said to Xia Hao: "I'm sorry, Xiao San is straightforward and fast-talking, and he doesn't mean anything else." ”
Xia Hao waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and said, "I used special props to become like this." ”
"Hey! Don't ask so much, how is your food sold, set a price! However, you have to be kind, you can't take the opportunity to hack us! "The supernatural player Xiao San is obviously very hungry.
Xia Hao took out the bread and fruit and handed them to Qingfeng, "You guys eat first, these things are not worth a few dollars." ”
Qingfeng looked stunned for a moment, thanked him repeatedly, and then took the food, distributed it to several other teammates, and then took out the remaining portion and ate it. Xia Hao saw Qingfeng's actions, and nodded secretly, being able to put others before himself, a person like Qingfeng is trustworthy.
Jumping out of the truck, Xia Hao appeared in front of Qingfeng and them.
Xia Hao was sitting in the car just now, and the feeling was not obvious, but now after he walked down, everyone found that Xia Hao's height was only up to their waist! I have to say that Xia Hao's appearance is very kawaii now.
Qingfeng They were completely stunned, Inhuman players, this is the first time they have seen it! After thinking about it, this guy in front of him is Xiao Ming, the first person in the game, and it doesn't seem surprising that he has become like anything.
"Hurry up and get back to shape, it's not safe here!" Qingfeng, as a leader, has stronger self-control after all, so he reminded him loudly, and the others also gathered their minds when they heard the words and concentrated on eating.
Watching the few people in front of him gobbling up the barbecue, Xia Hao's gaze mainly stayed on the Frost Mage female player in Qingfeng's team. The female player seemed to feel Xia Hao's gaze, and her face turned red, so she turned her body and blocked her eating with her back.
The Frost Mage sat on the grass, her gray robe no longer bright and clean, she was half-bowed, the curve of her back showing a moving line under the Frost Mage's soft robes. From Xia Hao's point of view, you can see that her reddish cheeks are moving, her long black hair fluttering behind her, and from the neckline of the frost mage robe, you can see that her white neck is very slender.
Xia Hao looked at this female player who was easily shy and felt very funny.
"Xiao Ming, do you have anything to eat? Give me some more! The Avatar shouted from behind.
"I have to say, you can really eat." Xia Hao complained.
"I said, brother, did you take a fancy to our beautiful frost mage? Would you like me to introduce you? But let's say okay first, then you won't be able to charge us for food! The supernatural looked at Xia Hao's expression, approached him and whispered, his eyes full of smiles.
Xia Hao said: "You betrayed her to me, aren't you afraid that she will beat you?" ”
"Ahem...... the supernatural almost choked and said, "We Bingrou are gentle girls!" If you want to chase her, you'll have to slap me up. ”
"What are you talking about! Xiao San, don't talk nonsense, go to the side to eat, and I'll talk to Brother Xiao Ming about something. Qingfeng's voice made the supernatural person's neck shrink, and he smiled at Xia Hao, and the thief smiled and walked in the direction of the female frost mage.
"Brother Qingfeng, you take these foods and eat them first." Xia Hao handed over the rest of the food to Qingfeng.
"Thank you for your kindness this time, otherwise we would have been the first players in the game to starve to death." Qingfeng said with a smile.
Xia Hao waved his hand and said, "It's just a gesture." I'm curious, how did you end up in the Dark Forest? ”
"We rescued an old hunter, he pointed us to find a cave who knew that we were deceived by him, the monsters inside are all dark creatures, not very high-level, we can easily deal with it. But when we wanted to go back, we found that the road behind us had all disappeared, and we came here along the dark underground passage, and after we walked out of the underground passage, the entrance to the underground passage also disappeared, and we couldn't go back to the city and couldn't go offline, we had run out of food, but fortunately we met you! ”
"Have any of you ever died?" Qingfeng understood what Xia Hao meant.
"We have also thought of a way to return to the city by suicide, and the supernatural mistress has committed suicide, but the place of resurrection is still where we entered the dark forest!" Qingfeng sighed.
Xia Hao lamented: "It seems that it is not easy to leave here!" ”
"May I ask, how did you become an Inhuman?" Qingfeng endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Xia Hao had just discovered this from the strange eyes of the others, and he was still wondering when Qingfeng would ask this question, but he couldn't help it.
"It's a special prop effect, and although I became an Inhuman, I'm now trapped here just like you." Xia Hao said.
"No wonder you just said that there are no monsters, you are an Inhuman, naturally you will not be attacked by Inhumans, we can't, the level of these Inhumans is all about level 30, and the muskets in their hands are very powerful, we can't enter the mouth of the valley at all." Qingfeng paused, "I don't know why, the monsters here are all gathered together, and there are often people in our team who are killed by monsters, so the consumption is even greater." ”
"I've heard the Inhumans in the valley say that the beast tide is coming, and that's probably the reason." Xia Hao looked at the dense forest in the distance, "How many levels of monsters are there on the grass?" ”
"The outermost is a level 30 sword pig, and we didn't dare to go in again."
At this moment, Xia Hao suddenly felt that something was wrong, and then he heard the sound of "boom" from the front, the ground shook, and the few people who were originally sitting on the ground all staggered!
"Beast tide!" Xia Hao and Qingfeng glanced at each other, took a deep breath, and got up at the same time. Without a clear breeze to greet them, the team members who were originally scattered near them quickly gathered together.
Xia Hao climbed onto the truck and shouted, "Get in the car." ”
Everyone quickly acted according to Xia Hao's orders.
The ground had begun to tremble, the black forest rattled, some leaves began to fall, and the first monster appeared in the meadow in the distance, a golden unicorn-shaped monster, followed by other strange-shaped monsters.
Xia Hao didn't dare to slack off, and after everyone got into the car, he immediately started the car and ran wildly. Although the truck will not be attacked by the monsters, with the impact speed of these monsters in front of you at the moment, let alone a small truck, even the strong city wall may be broken!
The motor roared, and the truck sprang into flames.
Xia Hao gave full play to his driving skills, and the speed of the car was also increased to the maximum, but compared to the beasts running wildly behind, the speed of the truck driven by Xia Hao was as slow and weak as a snail.
"Hurry up! They're coming to catch up! The Feather Clan player in the Breeze team shouted, he had the best vision.
Xia Hao was not in a hurry, he glanced at the rearview mirror with the corner of his eye, he gritted his teeth and looked at the mouth of the Inhuman valley that was still some distance away, and turned the car to the mountain peak next to the valley fiercely!
The motor whimpered. Usually when driving a truck in the Inhuman Valley, Xia Hao had never tried to drive the car up a mountain with such a steep slope. But in the rugged valley, Xia Hao couldn't feel the bumps on the truck, and the truck could rush up in one fell swoop regardless of the slope of the mountain.
The peaks on both sides of the valley were steep and rocky, and the truck crawled up the mountain as if it were walking on a flat road, but the wailing of the motor told everyone that it was not safe to drive in this state.
However, Xia Hao drove the truck up the mountain and was finally out of danger for a while, and Xia Hao could hear the relieved voice of the player next to him.
The female frost mage was next to Xia Hao's side, and she stroked her chest with her small hand, as if she wanted to erase the fear in her heart. Xia Hao looked at the cute expression of the female frost mage, smiled at her slightly, and the frightened female frost mage hurriedly lowered her head, just looked at Xia Hao from the corner of her eyes.
"Dong" was just about to calm down when the front of the truck seemed to hit something, and then the motor stopped turning. Xia Hao looked at the top of the mountain in front of him, which was already approaching flat, and started the car again, and the truck turned off again after a long time of "bursting" like a strong city wall.
"That's not right!" Xia Hao keenly felt that something was wrong, and he was just about to act, but he saw the rocks in front of him explode.
The mutation happened very suddenly.
The sturdy rocks splattered like a goddess, and the scattered rocks rumbled down the hill as if something was about to come out of them.
Xia Hao let out a breath, and the uneasiness became even stronger.
"Everyone, be careful, there may be monsters ahead!" Xia Hao greeted everyone out loud.
The beast stream under the mountain is still galloping rapidly, and it is undoubtedly a death to go down now, but the unknown monster in front is certainly not weak.
Qingfeng showed the calmness of a team leader at this time, raised his hand and gave the order: "Everyone get ready for battle!" ”
"Boom la la ......" the rocks kept rolling downward, occasionally hitting the monsters, and before the monsters that fell to the ground had time to get up, the monsters that rushed behind had already trampled over them. All of a sudden, there were constant screams of monsters before they died, but these were like duckweed in the sea, and they were drowned in the blink of an eye.
The head of the "dong" truck shook violently, and the huge impact caused the truck to slide a considerable distance.
The hearts of the people could not help but rise.
It's a big deal, but no one wants to die! Not to mention the process of dying in an unknown situation, which is terrifying. Death may not be terrible, but the huge psychological pressure and mental oppression before death is enough to make people crazy.
At this moment, a huge monster poked out of the rocks in front of the truck!
A stone python at the level of the forty-level wild map boss! (To be continued.) )
