Chapter 387: The Soul Master's Mission
The main brain issued a system prompt related to the battle situation, Xiao Yu has a general understanding of the battle situation of the two alliances, the army of the evil alliance launched a full-scale war against the angel alliance from three ways, and the angel alliance had to be passively defended. The entire Erathia Plain is full of battlefields, corpses strewn all over the field, and blood is flowing, even if it is a real human war, it cannot reach such a scale.
It has to be said that the necromancer Sandru is a wise commander, he led a large number of legions around the Sylvana line of Erathia, arrived at the Holy Light City, built a temporary fortress on the plain outside the city, and began to make the death canopy with a large number of bones.
The canopy of death refers to the necromancers who burn the dry bones into a smoke screen, the billowing smoke screen will obscure the sun, under the shroud of the death canopy, the attributes of all undead creatures will be greatly improved, once the death canopy is formed, the Holy Light City will be covered, the defenders of the Holy Light City will lose their home field advantage, and it will not be a difficult thing to defeat the Holy Light City.
The army of the Holy Light City continued to besiege the temporary fortress built by the necromancer Sandru, but the Unholy Alliance sent the most elite troops to garrison the fortress, and the Angelic Alliance side was inferior, and it would not be able to take this fortress for a while.
There are scuffles everywhere, which is a good thing for players, at least without worrying about running out of places to pk.
Xiao Yu inadvertently opened the video forum, and the most popular video on the video forum at present is the battle between Sandru and Antonic, the god-level master of Erathia, opened the video, and a noble divine mage in a white robe was suspended in the sky, and opposite was a necromancer in a gray robe.
Looking towards the ground, countless dense black dots spread all over the Erathia steppe. The two of them fight in the sky, and all kinds of brilliant magic, curses, and even area skills bloom in the sky, which can be described as spectacular.
The mount of the Holy Mage Antonic is a lower god-level holy dragon, and the mount of the necromancer Sandru is a lower-level god-level blood dragon, and two huge dragon creatures are strangled in the sky.
Wherever the two of them fought, it was dark, thousands of horses were in unison, where the magic fell, corpses flew wildly, and hundreds of yards were razed to the ground. Xiao Yu and the rest of the players have a general understanding of the strength of the lower god level, which is an existence that mortals cannot match. Of course, players will not participate in battles of this level, unless there is a special guided mission.
Compared to these lower-level god-level existences, those fifty or sixty-level strengthened elites and super-level elites that Xiao Yu had encountered before were nothing at all, and the two were not at the same level at all.
These people are the terminal force of a country, if they are defeated, the next step is the destruction of the country, as long as they live, the country will not perish.
Throughout the afternoon, Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin hunted and killed some players of the Temple Fire, and assisted the players of the oath to lay down a lot of arrow towers, and the players of the oath slowly controlled the situation, but they could not be defeated in a short time. The Temple Fire is also a big guild anyway, and it won't be defeated so quickly, and the stalemate between the two sides will continue for a long time.
Xiao Yu also played a big role, and there were some buildings such as arrow towers that were not easy to knock down, all of which were touched by Xiao Yu first, clearing a way and clearing obstacles for them, so that the players who swore the oath were much easier and consumed a lot less.
As the evening approached, it seemed to herald the unusual night, the sun was falling, but the red mist in the sky did not dissipate, a strange red. A howling cold wind blew, faintly mixed with a terrible scream.
"When the red moon rises, countless lonely souls weep low in the wilderness, the moon shadow bets, and the aging soul master murmurs a prayer: Soragmun, Rodt..."
Xiao Yu remembered this passage in Otlan's notebook, today is the night of the red moon.
"There's still a mission in the evening, so I'll go first." Xiao Yu sent a message to Fengye and said.
"Okay."
Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin rode their horses in the direction of Night City.
"Is that the task on that notebook?" Zhao Lanxin asked.
"Hmm." Xiao Yu replied, looking at the sky, the sky was red, and the red moon had not yet risen.
Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin returned to Dark Night City, and went offline to have a meal first, Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin prepared and replenished various consumables first. Xiao Yu threw a large amount of equipment harvested this time into the auction house, and the two thieves helped Xiao Yu collect a lot of equipment, of course, the two thieves also got some benefits, and got a few pieces of equipment above the legend level of thieves, which was enough to make them excited for several days.
The two of them went to their respective mentors to upgrade their skill levels, and it was almost night.
Tonight is the day of the Red Moon in mid-January, and a large number of ghosts will be born across the continent of Enzes, roaming the continent.
There are so many buildings in Styx that you can't see the Red Moon.
"Let's go into the wilderness."
Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin came out of the Dark Night City, and when they arrived in the wilderness outside the Dark Night City, the red mist in the sky gradually dispersed, and in the silent night, the yin wind was blowing.
Xiao Yu took out the Aotran notebook, and suddenly a cold wind blew, causing Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin to shiver, at this time, Aotran's notebook was a little different from usual, exuding a cold chill in the dark night.
Xiao Yu muttered the words, "When the red moon rises, countless lonely souls cry low in the wilderness, the moon shadow bets, and the aging soul master murmurs: Soragmun, Royal..."
Could it be that the mystery will not be revealed until the red moon rises?
Keep waiting, Xiao Yu thought to himself, looking to the west, the western sky has become blood-red, and the red moon will rise soon.
Gradually, Xiao Yu felt that the atmosphere around him was a little wrong, the shadows of countless trees in the endless wilderness swayed in the darkness, and there was an extremely eerie feeling. The cold wind shouted, and the video and audio were mixed with crying and howling.
This kind of cold scene made Zhao Lanxin's face a little pale, and she unconsciously got closer to Xiao Yu.
The first rays of red moonlight shone on the wilderness, like a red carpet, spread outward, and suddenly there were many more shadows in the wilderness, wandering around, in great numbers, and the creatures of the night who had been active in the wilderness in the past were hidden, peeking out of the movement in the hidden corners.
As if sensing the presence of Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin, these spirits surrounded Xiao Yu's location one after another.
Xiao Yu glanced at the notes in his hand, but there was no reaction to this note.
All kinds of ghost creatures are gathering more and more, just like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, there are ghosts everywhere, these ghosts slowly approached, Xiao Yu finally saw their faces clearly, their faces were pale, as if they were smeared with a thick layer of fat powder, there were no pupils in their eyes, and they looked very terrifying.
Zhao Lanxin had a scroll back to the city in her hand, and once she found that the situation was wrong, Xiao Yu could cover Zhao Lanxin at any time to go first, and then run away by herself.
These ghosts approached to a distance of about five yards from Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin, and they stopped in some fear, gathered outside, and let out a low, strange low trumpet, like the sharp and piercing sound of a dagger cutting through glass.
Xiao Yu threw a few reconnaissance on these ghosts, and found that they were all elites around level 30, and if so many ghosts besieged the two of them at the same time, they were really not easy to deal with.
Aotran's note in his hand suddenly moved, as if a voice was calling him, Xiao Yu took Aotran's notebook and looked towards the mountains in the distance, a red moon hung above the sky.
The surrounding ghosts seemed to be stimulated by something, retreated a few steps, looked at the notes in Xiao Yu's hand in the center reverently, and slowly knelt down, countless ghosts in the wilderness knelt on the ground, this scene was even more weird.
As if receiving some kind of instruction, Xiao Yu took Aotran's notes up, slowly spread them out, and a pillar of red light fell from the sky and fell onto the notes in Xiao Yu's hand.
For a moment, this ancient notebook seemed to suddenly come to life, emitting a brilliant red light, which was mild but not warm at all, completely illuminating the wilderness.
A wisp of black shadow slowly flowed out of the note and landed on the ground, and the black shadow slowly condensed and formed, eventually turning into a human form.
Xiao Yu looked at the unknown creature in front of him, and after this black shadow flowed out, the red light emitted by the note gradually dimmed and changed back to its original appearance.
"Hello, young man."
An old voice came into Xiao Yu's ears.
Xiao Yu finally saw the appearance of the person in front of him clearly, this is an old man on crutches, his appearance is very kind, this old man is in the form of a wandering spirit.
"Hello."
Xiao Yu was very respectful, at this moment he was already guessing the next task, this old man was obviously the key person in the mission.
"My name is Otlan, and I belong to the Soul Master clan." The old man introduced himself.
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the old man in front of him was actually the soul master Otlan, which made Xiao Yu a little surprised.
After chatting with the old man, Xiao Yu learned that after the death of the soul master Otlan, he was unwilling to leave, so he lived in the notes with his soul state.
"My name is Xiao Yu, and I belong to the undead clan." Xiao Yu said that the undead clan and the soul master clan are allies, and if the soul master Otlan wants to issue a mission, it is undoubtedly a wise move for Xiao Yu to reveal his identity.
"The Undead." Soul Master Otlan heard Xiao Yu's words, and showed an excited expression and asked, "May I ask if His Highness Kventus is still alive?" Oh, that's a stupid question, the gods will bless His Highness Cventus. ”
"Yes." Xiao Yu smiled and said, maybe he was too excited, and Soul Master Otlan was a little incoherent when he spoke.
"Young man, can you take me to His Highness Kventus?" Soul Master Otlan asked.
Xiao Yu's heart moved, is this the content of the mission, take the soul master Otlan to find the undead clan's ancestor Lich King Kventus.
