Chapter 66: The Passage Guard
Renault told the story lightly, and it sounded like a thrilling situation, and anyone who had seen Renault's injuries understood how terrible the thrill hidden in it was.
Just enduring those three soul-burning deaths was enough for them to chill for a while.
When asked about the skeleton warhorse, Renaud said proudly: "That skeleton knight was knocked to the ground by my bright flame sword, and he actually gave his mount to the queen, but he ran away. Otherwise, I would have killed it long ago, and in that case, the continuous damage of the Deathfire would have dissipated with its death. But I've also been blessed by misfortune, and the breath of death in the fire of death has caused the skeleton horse to mistake me for its owner and become my mount, and if it hadn't been for its full retreat, I don't think you would have waited for me to appear. ”
After Figuring out the general process, after Renault fully recovered his strength, he was about to leave the pyramid, but was stopped by Renault. He pulled out a purple crystal from his inventory, shimmering purple in the glow of the setting sun.
"Teleportation crystals?" The sea tiger exclaimed.
"No, it's the Space-Time Gate." Renault corrected.
This is still the last time I sacrificed, the divine grace that was exchanged, a divine grace worth C-level. The effect is to forcibly leave a permanent record point on a field map, so that the player can teleport to level up.
Renault did not hesitate to activate the magic array in the "Gate of Time and Space",
Jin Hongming said: "It's a pity to use up such a precious divine grace now." ”
Renault: "It's a pity, it's the seventh day, and the secret realm is full of deadly traps set by the Song of Ice and Fire, and it's too dangerous to go out now." And the 'Time and Space Gate' is not omnipotent, at least it can't be teleported arbitrarily inside the pyramid, otherwise I wouldn't have to be seriously injured and go down layer by layer to find an exit." If we don't have to do it now, then ......" he pointed to the distant horizon and said, "There's still a fierce battle behind the portal." ”
Battle of the Sea of Scorpions! The four of them thought of the thrilling scene that happened in the morning, and they were all shocked into a cold sweat. If they are told to rush out at the risk of death, and they still rush out without the life potion, there is basically no hope of survival.
Jin Hongming wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead: "That'...... That's better to be on the safe side. Huh......" He suddenly showed a strange look, as if he had found something surprising. When his gaze rested on Renault's level display, his eyes blinked incessantly before he said, "Boss, you are already level 20!" ”
At this time, everyone discovered the "secret" of Renault's promotion.
The magic swordsman smiled shyly: "There is an elite monster on each floor of the pyramid guarding the exit door, and the elite monster after the twenty floors is ridiculously strong, and it is not something that a level 9 player can pass, so I have to ......"
Everyone thinks: Pass the first 20 floors with elite monsters at level 9, and you can do it.
Renaud lifted the sapphire portal above his head and shouted, "Transfer—Ebudera." ”
A beam of blue light quickly expanded from inside the crystal to the outside, quickly enveloping the five people in a faint blue light, and after a slight dizziness, the long-lost Garden of Ebdella Square appeared in everyone's eyes.
……
"Dang, dang, dang, dang......" The tower in the center of the square garden rang a long bell, and it was already five o'clock. Unlike the golden sunset in the mists of the desert realm, the sunset here is like blood, and the fiery sunset floats above Ebudra, smearing the passers-by in the square with a grotesque layer of red, like warriors who have just returned from the cruel battlefield.
For the sudden appearance of Renault and others, pedestrians did not look much surprised, the creation of the god domain has been carried out for more than two months, and there are still many novices in the bustling square garden who have just gotten rid of the challenge of the novice area and completed the task of transferring jobs to come here. Only a few players with vicious eyes found that the five "novices" were dressed in unique costumes, and the weapons on their bodies were all extraordinary, and they would never be worn by novice players.
The low-key quintet didn't want their outfit to attract attention, so they pulled down their sand hoods as much as they could, and walked briskly north. But they all recorded the three-digit number on the top of the clock tower at the same time, 663.
Sure enough, just as Renault had deduced, the number of the clock tower was decreasing day by day, and the number was exactly the same as he had predicted. They can't help but think of what Renault called "apocalypticism."
Is it true that there are only 663 days left?
It's a bitter question. Including Renault, there is not the slightest joy, but now there is no pessimism as before, at least with a strong man like Renault around, survival is not too much of a problem.
663 days! That is, it has been close to two years, and the game has not been conquered in two years, so what is the mix.
Everyone comforted themselves at the same time.
Knowing the urgency of time, the pace of the five suddenly became faster, like a fresh wind blowing to the north.
In a short time, an inner city defense structure was located in the necessary place to link the northern district. Nominally, it's to prevent players from the East, South, and West from straying into the North and the notorious slum.
After contact with Haihu and others, Renault now knows its actual intention: to prevent the "villains" in the North District from flowing to the other three districts, which is the real role of this constantly repaired inner city defense.
When Renault passed through this place at the suggestion of pharmacist Wu Haojian, there were not as many guards as there are now. The tunnel, which a few days ago had only two armed guards, was now full of people standing side by side, and there were as many as ten people when you counted them. Both in terms of armor and weapons, it is far better than the level worn by the guards in the past. Even an eight-foot strong man with the appearance of a captain is a high-quality equipment, and even the weapons are shining with silver light, which is the characteristic of rare-level equipment. In today's market, enough to sell for a staggering figure. The matching of equipment and identity and strength also shows that this time the city defense is no longer just a show as before.
"What's going on?" Several people looked at each other, and their first reaction was that something big had happened, only the reckless man Zhan Mu hadn't realized this, and he cursed in his mouth, unhappy that these people didn't take the initiative to open the tunnel door and let them in.
When they reached the tunnel, the guards made sure that the five were going through the tunnel they were guarding, and all but the captain, who was dressed in fancy equipment, pointed their spears horizontally forward.
Looking at the nine spear heads facing him, Haihu had a frosty face, and without showing weakness, he took off the two battle axes hanging behind his waist, and danced in front of the ten people. As if to say: I'm not afraid of fighting.
In the face of the provocation of the two-meter giant, the guards were expressionless, like nine stone statues. Only the one who was the leader had an unnatural face.
"Stop, don't take another step forward, or ......" The man at the head spoke, but Zhan Mu obviously didn't give him any face, took off the heavy shield that had been carrying behind him, and quickly rubbed the shield against their spearhead, colliding with a loud and short metal clash sound, and even stirred up a small spark.
Obvious provocation!
The leader of the guard was even more gloomy, his eyes flashed cold, and when his gaze moved to the scarred shield, he knew that Humpty Dumpty, who was holding the shield, was a battle-hardened player. Because, he could see that the heavy shield had obviously been repaired by the blacksmith, but it still could not undo the damage on it, which showed how many attacks it had withstood and withstanding.
Not only that, but that two-meter giant man was not good at stubble, the two huge battle axes were as light as nothing in his fan-sized palms, and they looked even more light when they flaunted their might in front of them, and the level was as high as 25.
Even so, the leader of the guards just found it tricky, his nine subordinates were also the elite who had been screened heavily, with an average level of 25, and he himself was the elite of the elite, and his combat effectiveness was recognized by the big shots, otherwise he would not have given him the responsibility of guarding the defense line in the northern district.
As the leader, he had the honor of being proud, he suppressed his anger and said in a calm tone: "There is a dangerous area ahead, and as the person in charge here, I advise you not to move forward, this is also for your own good." ”
Haihu was about to attack again, but Renault on the side stopped him and said in the same polite tone: "We originally lived in the North District, it's not that we got lost and went in the wrong direction, please let us go." ”
The leader saw that the person who spoke was dressed in a gorgeous magician robe, spoke elegantly, and raised his fingers politely and politely, although the level was obviously inferior to that giant, but there was a kind of momentum that was not angry and self-righteous in his gestures, and he was obviously completely crushed in rank, but there was an inexplicable fear in the heart of the guard leader.
He knew that only a strong man who had experienced the baptism of blood and fire would have such coercion. And the degree of this coercion is somewhat familiar. He desperately recalled, and only then did he think of the big man who had accepted his mission to feel the same way.
When he thought of the big man, the leader of the guards seemed to remember some terrible experience, and when he realized that he should respond to the other party, not be stunned, he realized that the sweat soaked through his heavy clothes. When he looked at the magician who was ten levels lower than him again, his eyes became complicated, and he still couldn't understand why this little guy at level 20 had such a similar sense of oppression.
Annoyed by the long silence of the leader of the guards, anger permeating every inch of his fat face's skin, he struck the opponent's spear with his shield again, the piercing metal trills made the leader realize his gaffe, he barely squeezed out an embarrassed smile, and said, "If you are the original inhabitants of the North District, you must be searched by us to make sure that you are not carrying dangerous items before you can pass through the tunnel." ”
Zhan Mu took a bite and said, "Search? What search? ”
Leader of the Guard: "It's a body search, even your inventory should be shown to us, to prevent you from accepting 'forbidden tasks' that violate the guild's declaration." ”
Hearing the word "body search", the grumpy Zhan Mu couldn't hold back his anger and scolded: "Who gave you the power, and what qualifications do you have to search us?" ”
