Xicheng District. …，

As the sun began to sink towards evening, it was almost obscured by the Colosseum, revealing only a corner that radiated an orange-red sunset.

Today, the main neighborhood of the arena is particularly lively. For no other reason, the First Guild of Arabe, Twilight Blade, actually gathered 2,000 elites on the block, apparently preparing to start a clan war, which quickly attracted widespread attention and discussion both inside and outside the game.

But the two thousand elites did not stay in the neighborhood for long, and left the city through the West City Gate.

Country.

“…… Is this the entrance to the western section of the sewer pipe? ”

In a col near a river, everyone looked at the entrance to the pipe, which was pitch black and locked by several layers of iron mesh, and looked at each other.

"Wait for the president to come over!"

"Rest in place!"

Bussman was speechless when he saw the layers of iron nets. This is a protective net made of the most precise 100 wrought iron, in brand new condition, without a trace of rust, and it looks like it has just been installed.

This shows that the city hall strictly supervises this entrance, and it is no problem for them to destroy so many people, but if they are tracked down by the city hall, the guild will be responsible.

"Commander, this time into the sewers, it's still a campaign mission, right?" During the break, several middle-level players who were more famous in the guild came over and asked.

"Hmph."

Bussman squinted at these people with an unhappy face, and when he saw the expectant and excited expressions of the members and mid-level leaders below, he had already guessed what these people were thinking.

To tell the truth, last night's battle was indeed fought beautifully, and the gang of five or six hundred people was almost completely wiped out. Only a few small fish and shrimp escaped. Two thousand combatants. The average spread per person is down. Experience and gold gains are worth a few days, and that's just the beginning.

There is also the second stage, the third stage of the mission. I don't know when, the guild's official blogs and forums have been circulating accurate information about the battle, and the guild members who failed to participate in the battle are called envy, jealousy, and hatred.

"It must have been that guy who deliberately let out the wind." Busman said secretly, although he was unhappy, he must also admit that the other party is clever.

Releasing information in advance is equivalent to pouring honey pills into 2,000 members, except for a few people who can't get away with it in reality. As soon as he sent out the news, two thousand people had gathered in front of the Grand Arena in just over ten minutes.

This shows that the members did not have the slightest antipathy and resistance to the Legion Battle, but were full of enthusiasm. Bussman's unhappiness also lies in this, the dignified 'Twilight Blade', the first guild of Cormier, when will it cooperate with a 'Crown of Nodashir'? Not to mention the fact that it is a new group that has not yet been formed.

A carrier pigeon descending from the sky interrupted Bussman's thoughts.

took out the letter and glanced at it, Bussman's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and several middle-level leaders around him asked tentatively: "...... Is there a new order from the president's side? ”

Bussman took a deep breath, and the green tendons on his forehead gradually faded.

"Yes!" Bussman opened his voice and said loudly, "Now." A thousand people stayed here and broke the protective net with me. Enter the sewers and explore the Colosseum! ”

"Another thousand people, rush to the Lord's Mansion in the Central Region, and the Blood Eagle will lead you!"

"Divide your forces to explore the main pipeline of the western sector from both ends?"

The middle-level players who led the group all understood the tactical meaning of this order, and they did not hesitate at the moment, and went back to reorganize the team.

Central City.

Two main pipelines that run in four directions, east, west, north and south, meet under the ground of the central city.

Charles and Yuffie stand in front of the sewer entrance.

"Blood Eagle, let's go first, and when the team comes, you will lead the group to follow." Charles said this to the Blood Eagle, and took Yuphie, the quicksand of his fingertips, the haunting of his dreams, and Udic and Meloti, and walked down the stone steps into the ground one after another.

The Blood Eagle stood in place with a few henchmen wanderer players.

Half an hour ago, he led the team to investigate the location of the Bane Temple, and also got the task sharing from Charles, so he naturally knew that tonight's battle mission was urgent.

Before the sun goes down, the criminal gang entrenched in the western sewer pipe must be dealt with and the escaped Shadow Descendants must be killed, which is the core character of the plot.

The legion then marched to hide near the Temple of Bane and waited for the midnight prayer hour for the final closing battle.

"There are a lot of powerful professionals in that temple, and I hope the Lord's Mansion will send someone to help, otherwise it is likely to fail......," Blood Eagle thought.

……

Tick.

The sewer pipes, which had been in disrepair for a long time, were constantly leaking water droplets, forming pools of silted water on the ground.

Inside the pipes is a faintly fluorescent, shimmering environment of glowing mosses and ferns growing in the sinks that crawl all over the floor and walls.

None of the six in the group were holding torches.

The 'Blind Eye' in the collar of the Charr's armor is providing the wearer with the ability to see in darkness for an hour.

The sorcerer is haunted by the Tiflin, and the bloodline of the race has its own dim vision ability, and it is easy to move in this environment.

Similarly, Udic is a bear man and also has dim vision. Meloti is a powerful sword mage, and although a trace of Celestial blood does not provide her with this ability, it can be supplemented with magic items and spells.

In contrast, Quicksand and Yuwie, who are pure-blooded human wanderers and warrior monks, are much more cautious when exploring, following the team closely and never taking a single step.

In fact, even without the visual enhancements, the combat effectiveness of human wanderers and warrior monks in a low-light environment would not be significantly weakened. Because wanderers and warrior monks, in terms of skills, have their own skills such as 'listening' and 'reconnaissance' that are related to perception attributes, so it is conceivable how difficult it is to sneak attack a profession that is good at sneak attacks and a profession that is perceived by the main point.

Udic was at the forefront.

The Barbarian has the highest health growth of all the basic classes, and even if he can only wear light or medium armor, he is no less tall than a full-body plate warrior in the team. Not to mention the amazing high attack of the barbarians. You can also take a shield.

"Stop!"

It took about half an hour to explore. Udic, walking, seemed to have discovered something. His eyes were slightly condensed, and he whispered.

"What's wrong?" Charles asked, clenching his scepter.

"There's a trap, a magic trap!"

Udic sniffed like a beast and said affirmatively, "I smell the smell of acidic liquid, it's strong." ”

"Acidic liquid?"

Instead of moving forward, Charles took a few steps to the left and right, sniffing the slightly stuffy air of the sewers, and found nothing unusual.

That said, he did not suspect a barbarian. Especially the perception of traps by a near-hero-level barbarian. Because Barbarians will have a special ability to perceive traps from level 3 onwards, and the ability will increase with the level of the class.

"I'll go up and have a look."

The quicksand at the fingertips pursed his lips and took the initiative to ask for help. After seeing Charles's nod, she bowed her body and moved forward lightly, half a meter, one meter, and when she was about to land with her right foot in the second step, she quickly retracted it. The charr in the back trembled and looked frightened when he saw the female wanderer.

"A magic trap with a high level of challenge."

"My skill level isn't enough."

The quicksand at the fingertips retreated, and he said with a solemn face.

"Take a detour!"

"Go the other way!"

Charles said after a moment's thought.

It's obvious. This is an advanced magic trap related to strong acids, and it is now in the team except for Udic. Anyone who eats a strong acid arrow, including Meloti, will basically be killed.

Fortunately, the main sewer pipe is as wide as a block, with parallel drainage and sewage troughs in the middle, and flat stone paths on both sides.

The six of them walked to the opposite side, and there was only a relatively low-level mechanical trap set up on the stone path here, and the quicksand at their fingertips was busy for a few minutes before they were successfully eliminated.

"Keep exploring inside!"

"Blood Eagle, they're about half a kilometer away from here."

If you encounter a trap, then you may be about to encounter an enemy in the next part of the road. Charles held the emblem as he walked, and applied a state magic to himself—

Sharp ear surgery (three rings, field).

The Blood Eagle led a thousand men to the rear and hurried quickly, the echo was relatively loud, and with the help of the magic charr, he could roughly estimate the distance between the friendly army and himself.

"Squeak ......"

Exploring the enhanced sense of hearing, a dozen paces away, a few rats hiding in a small bifurcated water pipe unexpectedly attracted Charles's attention.

These little mice are strange, not afraid of the living, and their eyes are blood-red, with a hint of gloom in the dark.

However, as soon as Charles pulled out his repeating crossbow and showed a little murderous intent, and wanted to hunt one for closer inspection, the rats were suddenly frightened, and quickly burrowed into the sewer pipe and disappeared.

"Those rats ......," Yuffie whispered beside him, leaning closer, the scent of the scent.

"Well, we may be going to encounter enemies next, be vigilant!"

Charles said in a deep voice, his voice was not loud or small, falling on everyone's ears, passing by the high-level magic trap in front, even Udic and Meloti were cautious at this time.

Sure enough, the exploration team only walked a few dozen meters ahead, and a huge rumbling sound swept from the depths of the pipe.

It was the effect of a dense stack of footsteps, filled with several high-pitched human voices with strange accents. Charles detected the movement in the distance with his sharp ear technique, his face changed slightly, and he drank: "The enemy is coming!" ”

"A big flock!"

"Build bunker first!"

There were some tattered wooden boxes of goods scattered on the stone path on both sides of the pool, and Charles told everyone to do it, and it took more than ten seconds to build a protective belt.

"Boom"

As soon as the work was completed, layers of shadows poured out from the branch pipes on both sides of the main pipe.

With the help of the Blind Eye's dark vision, Charles was able to see what these shadows were at once. It's a swarm of rats, and it's not ordinary rats.

Ferocious Rats!
