Chapter 22: The Key

It should be the same white bone, the same bone color, the same mutilated parts, and three sword spirits surrounded by it.

It seems that it is really the key to this lost path, otherwise there is no need for the system to let itself encounter it again, so it is obviously wrong to infer that it is just a simple poor person.

In fact, it is no wonder that Xiao Lang is "careless", strictly speaking, it seems that the system deliberately misled Xiao Lang to ignore the existence of the bones. Because, Xiao Lang's current thinking pattern is still the same as that of most players, believing that in a game, the key points of the mission will always be prompted to the player in a more conspicuous way, rather than being set casually on the road.

Although, the appearance of the first remnant bones may seem more abrupt, which will make some high-end players directly alert, but in Xiao Lang's concept, there is no such idea, or in the game, he did not cultivate this kind of vigilance, for the same example, before he entered the novice trial task and met the old way, Xiao Lang did not search every place that might have hints, but chose to wait in place.

Although his speculation was correct, there was indeed nothing of value around there, but if he replaced it with any game veteran, he would definitely not be as idle as Xiao Lang.

After all, Xiao Lang's game experience in this area is still too shallow, even if he became a professional gamer before, he didn't touch this kind of thing at all, and fortunately, the standard to measure the level of a professional gamer is not these, but combat ability.

But now, all the equipment, levels, and recovery items of the characters used by Xiao Lang need to be responsible for himself, so he can't help but start learning again, in fact, in a sense, [Fantasy World] is the first light-brain game that Xiao Lang has come into contact with, and it is normal to have this kind of performance.

Xiao Lang's learning ability is very strong, otherwise it would be impossible to gain a firm foothold in a bounty hunter's profession of paying tuition equals death in just a few years, and he would not make a similar mistake again.

Encountering the remnants of bones again, Xiao Lang naturally didn't just wait and see from a distance, and directly chose to walk over, while holding the waste sword steadily, beware of a sneak attack that might occur at any time.

The sneak attack did not appear, however, a very puzzling situation appeared, as if it was close to the end of the world, Xiao Lang had been close to Bai Gu, no matter how he walked, the distance between the two did not seem to be shorter by half a minute.

This skeleton is really the key to breaking the game, but the problem is that if you can't get the key that can only be seen, is there any use for fart?

Before Xiao Lang chose to get close to the white bone, he knew that if it was really a key, the Life and Death Box would not allow him to approach it too easily, but Xiao Lang naturally couldn't have thought that the difficulty was actually like this in the first place.

Then Xiao Lang really has no way, in the face of this unconventional situation, not to mention that Xiao Lang only has a waste sword in his hand, even if the [Five Ghost Spirit Jar] can be used as usual, it is estimated that it will not be useful.

If it were some ordinary players who encountered the current situation, they would only be blind, but Xiao Lang seemed unhurried, and simply no longer moved forward in vain, but sat down on the spot and thought quietly.

In the box of life and death, you can repeatedly encounter this remnant bone, and you can't simply get close, this result will appear, the only explanation is that this remnant bone is indeed the end of Wuguan or a node, but it needs to be approached by the practitioner in some way, obviously, the method of approaching it is the key to breaking the game!

But what is this approach?

Xiao Lang tried to use the detection function given to the player by the system, and found that it didn't work on the white bones at all, just like the usual players who probed those targets that were too far away, and the results they got were the same, nothing could be displayed, and similarly, the three sword spirits couldn't detect any effective information.

One remnant bone, three sword spirits, it seems that the only information that can be brought to Xiao Lang is this, one remnant bone, three sword spirits, three sword spirits...... Three Sword Spirits!

Xiao Lang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and he finally grabbed the key that was lost.

Surrounding the white bones were three sword spirits, but in the process of killing the sword spirits, he only encountered a situation where the hatred range of the two sword spirits partially overlapped at most, and he didn't see three sword spirits appear at the same time.

What does this mean, it's not because this white bone is very important, and it needs three sword spirits to protect it!

This ordinary person can't get close to him, what else do you need to protect? If the key point is only this remnant bone, then why does the system, or the Life and Death Box, deliberately arrange three sword spirits by its side? What's more, the strength of these three sword spirits is not very outstanding, and they can't play a protective role at all.

And since there is a situation where the hatred range of the three sword spirits overlaps here, it means that these sword spirits can overlap multiple times, so why has he never encountered one since he started killing the sword spirit, and he has only seen one alone, and at most two sword spirits overlapped.

Xiao Lang finally understood, as for whether this was indeed the case, he still needed to try it himself.

Xiao Lang immediately set off and left the white bones, and continued to find a random direction to walk, and when he encountered a lone sword spirit, he bypassed, not caring whether he would get lost at all, and no longer placed obviously useless road signs, and after a while, he encountered two sword spirits gathered together.

Xiao Lang came to the overlap of their hatred, and in this way, naturally caused them to attack at the same time.

If Xiao Lang was faced with such a situation just now, he would only choose to kill one of them, anyway, as long as he could open the way forward, if the two sword spirits were too close to each other and it was not easy to seduce them alone, Xiao Lang would choose to kill them together. And this time, Xiao Lang had obviously made up his mind to kill both of them at the same time, so he stepped directly into the overlap of their hatred.

The difficulty is definitely greater than when one is killed alone, after all, it means that Xiao Lang has less room to move, but based on the sword spirit's non-flow swordsmanship, it won't cause much trouble to Xiao Lang, it just takes a little more hands and feet, it may only take more than ten minutes, and the two sword spirits show their true colors one after another and fall to the ground.

After killing these two sword spirits, Xiao Lang had just walked a few steps before he found that the visibility around him was slightly lower, but this degree was very insignificant, and if it wasn't for Xiao Lang's deliberate observation, he would almost not be able to feel it.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lang killed a lone sword spirit, which was very easy to find, and could be seen almost everywhere.

Sure enough, as Xiao Lang expected, after killing this sword spirit, the visibility returned to its previous state.

No wonder Xiao Lang always felt that although the visibility around him changed occasionally, it quickly returned to its original state. Xiao Lang didn't care about it at that time, thinking that it was because he was too tired and dizzy. It turns out that after killing two Sword Spirits at the same time, it can be seen through the visibility scale that the progress has indeed increased, but then after killing the lone Sword Spirit, the progress returns to its original position.

Xiao Lang tried to face the two sword spirits again, killing only one of them at a time, because their hatred ranges were only partially overlapping after all, and they could also be drawn out and killed one by one.

No change in the ruler was found!

I see! Xiao Lang let out a sigh of relief, although he didn't dare to say that he had completely figured out the key to this martial arts, but at least he showed that the direction he had speculated in was not wrong, and this would be easy to do.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and now that the thread has been found by yourself, the rest is much easier.

Xiao Lang found the two sword spirits again, and after killing them, he encountered a single or two sword spirits, and went around directly, and in less than two quarters of an hour, after even Xiao Lang himself forgot how many sword spirits he had bypassed, Xiao Lang really found the three sword spirits distributed in an equilateral triangle, and the three sword spirits guarding the bones, there was no difference.

If you change to someone with a slightly fragile mind, I'm afraid that at this time, you will have to sing "My tears fall from those who know the truth".

Xiao Lang was not so funny, but he still silently and cordially greeted the female relatives of the programmer who designed this task in his heart, even the kind that counted up to eighteen generations.

Xiao Lang can fully imagine that if a hundred players are put into the martial arts, it is estimated that only one or two will be able to complete this task of testing "IQ" within a certain period of time.

The reason why it is emphasized in a certain period of time is mainly because although in [Fantasy World], the player does not have the setting of satiety, that is, there is no risk of being starved to death or thirsty to death, and theoretically can survive in a maze for an infinite time, but in fact, if it is replaced by an indigenous NPC on the premise that it will not be starved to death, it will take ten years to get out of a labyrinth, so as to achieve great success, and may feel that it is earned, but if the player is trapped for ten years, even if the Taoist martial arts are the first in the world after getting out of trouble, So what? I think that [Tianxia] has only been in operation for about ten years.

In fact, Xiao Lang is also wrong to blame other designers, the reason is very simple, how complicated the tasks in [Fantasy World] are, and it is impossible for all the tasks to be designed by designers, not to mention, even if each designer only designs a hundred such tasks, it is estimated that even if Conan Doyle is there in person, his brain is completely insufficient.

Of course, since he had already greeted him, Xiao Lang naturally didn't need to take it back, in the face of the three sword spirits with overlapping hatred, killing them was the first task.

The overlap of the hatred of the three sword spirits is a little narrower, but that's all, although these sword spirits seem to be controlled by swordsmen behind them, but the swordsmanship of these swordsmen is too lame, at most it can only be said that it is stronger than those enemy soldiers outside the novice village who only know how to stab, chop, and slash.

This is because Xiao Lang's level realm is too low, resulting in today's sword spirits only being one or two grades, and the level is only equivalent to the small shrimp that is not in the worldly martial arts, and Xiao Lang has a combat quality far beyond the realm of physical training, so it is naturally not a problem to win them.

And if the realm of those who have entered the Life and Death Box is high, correspondingly, the sword spirit they encounter at this moment may be a high-grade Yellow Order, and the combat level will naturally rise.
