Chapter 27: Faint Footprints, Ladder to Success
The Lost Crypt is a magical place.
If you meet the requirements to request a quest and apply for a quest, then the Lost Crypt will be different in Easy, Standard, Hardmode, and Death Mode after entering the Lost Crypt, and if you go directly to the Lost Crypt without requesting a quest, it will be a different story.
At this time, a young figure, sweating in the crypt, fought the monster wantonly.
Huge and powerful serpentine monsters surrounded the human youth, filled with anger and murderous intent.
The four-meter-long snake monster's tail dragged and twitched, and with a 'snap', a faint white mark was left on the ground, but the human youth easily dodged, and his figure flashed, and before the snake monster had time to dodge, it hit the seven-inch weakness of the snake monster.
“―448。”
A faint red transparent number rises.
Before this number had risen to the highest level, the young man's other fist hit the snake monster again, so another number rose up closely, and when the first number was about to reach the top, the young man's last punch finally landed on the snake monster.
As a result, three transparent bright red numbers climbed up one after another.
Together, the three numbers are a whopping 1344!
And that extremely powerful monster, which was three points stronger than the black bear, was so easily bombarded, and finally turned into white light and disappeared.
After dealing with the nearby monsters, the young man wiped the hot sweat on his head, and looked at the rapidly growing experience points, and the tiredness on his face was inexplicably reduced by one point.
"Ran Lizard is worthy of being the most powerful ordinary monster in the novice village, not only is it powerful, but it also gives so much experience." After more than two hours here, his experience seemed to be more than half of what he needed to level up, and if he continued to level up here, he might be able to level up again in just three hours at most.
However, this is clearly not in line with his plan.
Ragnarok, Power Car, Princess Xiangxiang and others should have gradually caught up with the level, if they continue to level up like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before they will catch up, maybe even the first achievement to be promoted to level 10 will be robbed. Therefore, I am afraid that I will not be able to stay here any longer.
Moments later, the young man returned to the door of the lost crypt and found Battle-Saint Idara.
"From scratch, I didn't expect you to grow to this point in such a short period of time." The old man was nagging as always, but he still admired the young man in front of him very much, "Do you want to make some contribution to the novice village when you come to see me this time?" ”
From scratch, who else could it be besides Zhang Fan?
"Whoever knows me is none other than my grandfather." Zhang Fan replied beautifully.
"Hehe, you kid." The old man was very happy, and he was obviously very useful for this sentence, "You have solved a great threat for the novice village, and the old man doesn't know how to thank you." Well, since you still want to contribute to the village this time, then I'll show you the way, old man. ”
Zhang Fan was surprised: "What way?" ”
The old man smiled mysteriously: "Heavenly Road! ”
"Heavenly Road?" Zhang Fan was puzzled.
"The so-called Heavenly Road is a road that can lead to the sky, but there are countless difficulties and dangers, and the enemies you will face in the future will also be as powerful as you can imagine. It's up to you whether you want to choose this path or not. The old man's eyes were full of meaning, "But the old man can tell you first, once you embark on this path, you will never be able to go back, and if you choose, you can't change it." ”
It was the first time Zhang Fan had heard this kind of statement, he was extremely familiar with the novice village, but he didn't expect that there were still places he didn't know, he was full of curiosity and asked, "Please tell me grandpa." ”
"One hundred times in a row, if you succeed in destroying the Fallen Black Dragon and awaken one hundred times in a row, then you will set foot on this heavenly path."
"Exactly?"
This means that if you succeed in clearing the Lost Crypt (Death Mode) a hundred times in a row, then you may be surprised by the surprise, and of course, you may fall into the abyss from which you will never recover. At that time, it will depend on your concentration. ”
"A hundred times... Can't you fail even one of them? ”
"Yes, once you fail, the number of times is zero, and everything has to start all over again. Hehe, just like your name. ”
Zhang Fan was silent, of course he was not afraid, nor was he worried that he would not be able to complete this task, but he was calculating the gains and losses, if he stayed here to attack the dungeon a hundred times, it would take him at least ten days, this is still the most conservative estimate, in these ten days, he continued to open the lost crypt (death mode), and the experience gained will be less and less, and every time he opens it, the experience gained will be doubled, so he didn't think about using this method to brush up experience.
And ten days is enough time for a very small number of top players such as Ragnarok to open his level.
Therefore, Zhang Fan also had a little hesitation about whether to choose or not.
"The Novice Village, as the foundation of the entire "Brave", will definitely not be so simple, maybe this will really involve some earth-shattering secrets. And I, Zhang Fan, live a lifetime, don't I even have this bit of courage? Zhang Fan's heart was tortured by himself, and there was a trace of struggle in the depths of his eyes, but he was quickly suppressed, "No, since God has let me live again, then I will ask for my surname and live indulgently." The brave and the brave, since the name of this game is named after this, then take all my courage to gamble, in this life, I want to be vigorous and have no regrets! ”
Why was the game called Brave?
There have been countless speculations, and some people have asked on the official website, but they have not received a definite answer.
The answer given by Huayong Group was vague, as if it was dodging something, so that all players could not figure it out.
Maybe it really has something to do with courage.
After ten minutes of silence, Zhang Fan really made up his mind, but the old man didn't look impatient at all.
"Grandpa, I've decided." Once the decision was made, Zhang Fan was a lot more relaxed, as if he had suddenly unloaded a heavy burden, and the whole person was much more energetic, "I want to choose to take this heavenly road." ”
"System prompt: You have accepted the main quest of "The Brave" - The Road of the Brave."
"System Prompt: Open the first side quest of the Road of the Brave - Brave and Fearless."
A smile of relief and appreciation bloomed on the face of the old man of the Battle Saint: "I really didn't misunderstand you, start again, you are the bravest descender I have ever seen, I see fearlessness in you, and I see the most precious qualities in human beings." I'm sure you'll be able to make it this way. I am fighting St. Idara, and I offer my most sincere blessings! ”
I don't know if it's Zhang Fan's illusion, he feels that at this moment, there seems to be a divine brilliance on the old man's body.
Zhang Fan thanked him, and then said: "Thank you, old man, without further ado, I'll take action." ”
The old man didn't stay, nodded and said, "Go, the old man is waiting for you to return successfully." ”
After saying that, his figure faded little by little, and disappeared in a moment.
And Zhang Fan also resolutely stepped into the lost crypt.
"The system prompts: You have selected 'Death Mode', and you cannot pass the dungeon within 6 hours, which is considered a failure to clear the customs. There is no penalty for failure. ”
Next, Zhang Fan started the most torturous task in history, and this task is only the first branch of the main quest, I don't know if the side quest encountered in the future is still so perverted. Zhang Fan's only wish now is that when he completes the side quest, the system can give a better reward, otherwise, he will really lose a lot.
Mission Name: Path of the Brave
Quest Type: Main quest (unique hidden quest)
Mission Objective: The ultimate goal, step on the ladder to the other side, uncover the mystery of "The Brave" for 10,000 years, smash the treacherous enemy forces, and welcome the return of the gods.
Mission Phases:
1. First Side Quest: Successfully clear the Lost Crypt (Death Mode) 100 times in a row to delay the awakening time of the fallen black dragon. Reward: Unknown.
2. Tasks in the next stage: insufficient strength and not opened.
"I'm afraid they're going to catch up with me now." Although Zhang Fan was quite helpless in his heart, he still tried his best to strive for the achievement of being the first to reach level 10.
After entering the Lost Crypt, the mission begins.
"Knock, I'm sorry, but the target you requested to call is in a closed mission space and can't answer your video call. Please try again later. The fat man Bai Peng was speechless, and finally made a video call to Xiaofan, but he encountered this incident.
"Could it be that Xiao Fan is on an earth-shattering mission?" He slandered himself in his heart.
There was also Modo Zhentian who had a similar encounter with Bai Peng, originally he wanted to add Zhang Fan as a friend, but after thinking about it, he still didn't do it, but directly applied for a video call, and received such a prompt from the system: "Dong, I'm sorry, the target of your application for a call is in a closed mission space, and I can't answer your video call." Please try again later. ”
"How's it going, boss, have you gotten through?" Modo Suzaku said expectantly.
Modo Zhentian shook his head: "He is in a closed mission space, and he can't answer our video calls for the time being. ”
"Mission?" Modo White Tiger pondered, "Boss, do you think he knows some secrets, so he can be so popular in the game?" ”
Smiling slightly, Modo Zhentian shook his head again: "You don't know anything about this, don't say it's him, it's the president of Huayong Group Company, the first person in power in our organization, and he doesn't know the secret of "The Brave". So, this speculation can be ruled out in the first place. Otherwise, why am I so sure he's a master in reality? ”
"This game has a certain connection with reality. Although the masters in the game are not all masters in reality. But most of them are not wrong. He said with great certainty.
