Chapter 335: Prelude to Danger (1)
Chapter 335 Prelude to Danger
"Poof!" With a soft sound, the bloodthirsty blade in Fei Yun's hand slashed through the Demon Hound's skin, breaking a long and hideous hole on the surface of its skin. Where are the novels updated the fastest? Please look for the biquge.info black and red blood that flowed out was absorbed by the bone knife, becoming the source of the red light that continued to emit on it. At the same time, there was a tingling pain at the tip of Fei Yun's finger, and a bone spur pierced into his finger fiercely, sucking his life.
However, this time the weapon did not draw much life, because Fei Yun did not cast a lethal attack on the target, his purpose was only to break through the demon hound's defenses. Therefore, his damage to the hound is not very high, only around 1000 points, so the life absorbed will not be much more than the same. Only in this way would Fei Yun's thousand health points not be quickly exhausted due to the battle, so he persevered until he cut through all the hounds.
"Gross! This is probably the most life potion I've ever drunk in a day! Fei Yun kept vomiting the white life elixir outside, due to pharmacological resistance, he could no longer use the life elixir to restore his life, but would have adverse reactions due to drinking too much potion. At this moment, the reaction he produced was the vomiting reaction of taking most of the pills!
"That's it! Work harder, hold on and you'll be done! Mo Yan happily plunged a dagger into the neck of a demon hound, where Fei Yun had already cut a hole for him, and all he had to do was to cut the throat inside the hole completely. As his body quickly ripped apart, the besieged demon hound lay completely on the ground, a large amount of blood gushing out of its broken throat. Although the demon hound was not dead, it could not survive for long, and could only lie on the ground and convulse.
"It's finally over! Fei Yun breathed a sigh of relief after watching the last demon hound fall to the ground, and he stuffed the bone knife that emitted a strong red light into his backpack while vomiting the white life potion. Fei Yun loves and fears this weapon, the sharpness of the weapon and the terrifying additional ability make all thieves envious, but the characteristic of hurting the enemy and losing 10 is really not flattering. However, it is very good to use it as a defense-breaking weapon, and Fei Yun also estimates that this characteristic can only be effective on living creatures, and that elemental life or dead creatures are unlikely to have an effect.
"Is everyone still alive?" T-boy shouted in the team channel, and then heard more than 20 people constantly responding weakly in the team channel, and those who could respond were basically alive, and those who did not survive naturally reported back to the temple in the fortress.
"Razor and Fiya are hanging!" A thief named Feng Yun said depressedly, the razor and Fei Ye he said were both thief players who participated in the mission, apparently they became the ghosts of these demon hounds, and returned to the fortress to report with the few players who had hung up before.
"No way! When they are resurrected, let them run slowly together! That's all there is to it, damn it! A few garbage dogs lost seven people, which is a difficult task! The dark dagger looked at the corpses on the ground with a gloomy face, and as time passed, the corpses of these players slowly turned into white points of light and disappeared into the air, leaving only a pile of white bones in place. As for the things that broke out on their bodies, they were collected by Mo Yan after being counted, and he was going to return them to them after they ran back to gather.
"Lustful cat! Come here! T-boy shouted at one of the thieves who was checking the Demon Hound's body, only to see the player respond softly and immediately rushed over.
"What's the matter with Brother T-boy!" The thief called the perverted cat by the T-boy has a very handsome face, and it can be said that this face alone can attract the attention of many female players, but on the first day of this unlucky guy entering the game, he was caught in prison for peeping at the aborigines mm bathing and went out in that city. As for the reason for voyeurism, he was very sadly framed by a perverted old man, and that old man was also his later mentor, so even when he left the city, the reputation of this pervert was still not taken off, because when he was learning the skills of thieves, he was still framed by his mentor several times. In the name of exercising his anti-reconnaissance and concealment abilities, the result is that he is used as a scapegoat for voyeurism.
Of course, if it's just for this reason, he's called a pervert at most.,Instead of being called a pervert.,But the name of his game is called the cat that doesn't steal.,As a result, the combination of the two becomes a pervert.。 But then again, even if he was called a sexy cat, the handsome thief, he didn't care much, after all, this is also a thief's nickname, and it is also a code name recognized by the system. As the only good thieves in the entire team who have registered with the Thieves Guild, a recognized code name can allow them to get more money when they take on tasks.
When not recognized by the Thieves' Guild, he will receive the same reward for each quest completed as most Thieves, but when his contribution reaches a certain level and he is given a code name recognized by the Thieves' Guild, the reward for each quest completed will increase by 3 to 10 percent. This is the direct difference between a thief with a code name and a thief without a code name, and it is also the honor of a code name thief.
Only five members of the team have code names recognized by the Thieves' Guild: Lustcat, Dagger, Maddog, Bitterclaw, and Storm. Although Fei Yun's contribution to the Thieves' Guild is not low, he is still close to getting the code name recognized by the Thieves' Guild, and Storm Razor is relatively unlucky, he is the one who hangs up among the five code name thieves, although it is to drag the two demon hounds, but it is enough to make him depressed.
"Old cat! How is the situation, there is no trace of the demons found! T-boy began to ask the other party after calling the perverted cat over, and his detection skills were the highest among all the thieves, according to Fei Yun, they were all practiced during voyeurism. Or was forced out by his old pervert mentor, if the detection skills are not high, he will definitely be imprisoned by the old man more times.
"It's hard to say, the escape route of those bastards is too confusing! But I can tell that the fire demons are running this way! The cat that doesn't steal said as he pointed to a charred road, and then Mo Yan knocked the door of his head.
"You're not talking nonsense, so the scorched black marks everyone can guess that the fire demon is running that way!" Don't look at Mo Yan's name and sound silent, but his temper is not very good, otherwise he would not have a code name of a mad dog.
"Okay, Mo Yan! Let the old cat finish! "The dark dagger slowly carried a dead demon hound, although the demon's flesh and blood were inedible, but their skin was the best material for making zuò leather armor. In particular, the hound's skin is arguably one of the best leathermaking materials they can get their hands on, as it can be picked off completely.
"Not bad! Good dog skin! T-boy looked at the hound's skin that had been ripped off by the dagger and praised it, because the whole skin was very intact and there was basically no break except for an incision in the throat. Of course, this is also thanks to the thieves' assassination methods, and the standard throat-cutting technique kills monsters without leaving too many scars on its body.
"It's a pity that it's a little smaller, it is estimated that it will take two or three to make a leather armor jacket!" Fei Yun looked at the spread out outer skin of the demon hound, according to his estimate, it would take at least three skins of this area to make a leather armor coat that people could wear into. Of course, in fact, his estimate was a bit small, and it would take at least six skins to make a leather armor made of the skin of a demon hound.
"Old cat! You go ahead and leave them alone! T-boy patted the cat on the shoulder and said, of course, his eyes did not take off the skin of the demon hound that he had put away in the hand of the dark dagger, and if there was any kind of leather armor that was most popular with thieves and archers, it was definitely leather armor made of the skin of demonic creatures. The defense power of this kind of leather armor is far greater than that of ordinary leather armor, and it has a certain resistance to fire elements or other attribute spells, even a tabula rasa leather armor is much higher than the leather armor made of ordinary materials.
It's just that most of the leather armor belongs to the part of the military merit in the fortress, even if some of the demon's skin is obtained by the player's desperate fighting, who makes the player not have a high-level leather artist, unable to completely handle the demon's skin so that it can be made into leather armor. The player's use of the demon's skin is only covered with a shield or a skin on the outside of the armor, and it is not possible to fully exert the abilities of these skins. So for a relatively low-level, easy-to-handle Demon Hound skin, it is impossible for other thieves not to be hot.
"Well, in fact, I guess those fire demons deliberately covered up the footprints of other demons with their own traces when they retreated, and some of the higher demons can fly, so it's hard for me to tell where they're going! However, I estimate that the Fire Demon should move in the direction of most of the demons' escape, compared to most of the Fire Demons are pot-bellied Arhats, without the support of the legion, their survivability is very problematic! The non-stealing cat used his words to draw everyone's eyes back to the large blackened marks on the ground, and although the fire demons covered most of the traces with their terrible flames and heat scorching the dirt, a closer search could still reveal the footprints of other demons inside.
"This one looks a bit like the footprints of the Talon Demon, but then again, does the Talon Demon appear in the Demon Legion?" Fei Yun looked at the huge footprints on the ground like magnified claws, and asked blankly, as if he had never seen the Claw Demon appear in the Demon Legion in his impression.
"Huh! Fei Laosi, you read it wrong! This is what the footprints of the two scythes look like together! T-boy looked carefully at the footprints pointed by Fei Yun, and then looked at Fei Yun with a strange face and said, because he felt that there was a break between the two footprints, which was not like a footstep, but like two footprints superimposed on each other.
"That's not right! It should be a footprint! The cat who didn't steal looked at the footprints for a while and didn't agree with T's words, but chose to stand on Fei Yun's side, because he felt that the footprints on the ground didn't look like two footprints were superimposed.
"I think it's two footprints!" The other thief took a closer look and expressed his opinion, so that the opinions of the whole team were divided, and many thieves expressed their opinions after reading it, but no one could completely convince the other party.
In the end, everyone felt that they would continue to search along the road to see if they could find new footprints to prove whether it was the Claw Demon or the Scythe Demon, but it was clear to everyone that neither the Scythe Demon nor the Claw Demon should be the demons that appeared in the Demon Legion, but those demons that hid in the rear and did not join the battle. Therefore, they felt that following this path should be able to find the whereabouts of the demon legion and complete the trial mission.
Therefore, after leaving enough obvious markers to show the way to the thieves who had been resurrected and set off again, everyone continued on the road after taking care of their injuries, and this time they did not use the method of running on both legs, but rode on their horses. Because the number of demons wandering around is already very rare, and it will be more convenient to run away once you encounter a demon hound on a war horse, so that you will not be exhausted from being chased like this time.
After riding the war horse, Fei Yun and their subordinates sped up a lot, of course, in order to maintain the body of the war horse and reduce the vibration caused by the war horse running, everyone deliberately lowered the speed of the war horse to keep it moving forward at a speed that was only slightly faster than running. Of course, after riding the war horse, everyone's field of vision became a little larger, after all, the height of the war horse was enough for them to see far away, but the same size of the war horse made it easier for them to be spotted by demons.
Therefore, Fei Yun and the others observed the situation around them more frequently, because neither demons nor other creatures could fight against them as injured thieves, and their purpose this time was to find the traces of the demon legion rather than the trouble of the demons. Therefore, for Fei Yun, saving strength and life is the first place, and the second is to take advantage of the task to gain experience.
While Fei Yun and the others were wandering around the wilderness, Zhao Tiezhu in the fortress was helping the others complete their trial tasks. Among all of them, except for the trial tasks of the two priests, Su Wan's tasks are also quite simple, she actually has two tasks, one is to kill a demon of about level 60, and the other is to cultivate her own golden little flying dragon, so that it has the ability to obey commands.
The second task was not very difficult for Su Wan, in fact, the little golden guy was very easy to accept Su Wan's command, but after the body was cured of some weakness due to premature birth, it began to become very naughty, and often troubled the little monkey raised by Zhou Xuan. Either stealing its bananas or burning the other party's hair with the not very skilled Long Yan, but every time he was beaten by the walnuts thrown by the little monkey, his nose was blue and his face was swollen and he went back to find Su Wan.
However, no matter how good Xiao Feilong's intelligence is, Su Wan's trial mission is still in trouble, because she, like several other combatants, must independently kill a monster of about level 60 in order to completely complete the trial task. So when Fei Yun left, Xu Fei and the others buried themselves in copying books, and Chen Yi and they worked hard to take care of the patients and complete the task, they could only find a team to go out to search for demons.
Of course, Zhao Tiezhu, who has already completed the trial task, can be regarded as the best bodyguard for them to have an accident when completing the task, and after completing the trial task, he has mastered a very powerful new skill, Earth Shield! This magic-like skill can double his defense ability in a short period of time, and at the same time offset nearly 50% of the instantaneous impact and lethality, which can almost be regarded as a semi-invincible skill. The most important thing is that the protection range of the earth shield is very wide, relying on the tall two-meter arc protective circle formed by the shield to accommodate three people. Therefore, the Earth Shield is said to be a defensive skill, but it is more of a god-like skill.
The only pity is that this skill can only be used by Zhao Tiezhu himself, and cannot be blessed to others, otherwise it will be very invincible. But even so, when Zhao Tiezhu was protected, Su Wan and the other melee personnel would not suffer unnecessary losses because of encountering demons with terrifying attack power. Although they have never found a suitable demon to serve as the target of the mission, they have accumulated a lot of merit points by wandering around the wilderness for a long time to kill demons and level up.
Therefore, Su Xinghe and the others decided to upgrade their weapons first, and then try to find demons outside to do trial tasks, so after returning to the fortress, a few people slowly walked towards the place where the blacksmith was. But when they got to the blacksmith shop, a few of them saw the last person they wanted to see - Andorha!
"Tsk! Look who's coming, aren't you the deserter Kaichen? Friends of Lapston? Andaha's grim face looked at Su Xinghe and them quietly, and at the same time said in a cold and mocking tone.
"Why don't you speak! Don't think that Kaichen's little bastard is a nobleman, so you don't have to worry about being arrested for desertion, remember that this is the army! So if that little bastard comes back, let him report to the gendarmerie himself! Although he didn't hear Su Xinghe's reply, An Doha still felt very happy, because of Chen Kai, he lost an earth element array disk that he had finally obtained, so in his heart he had completely hated Chen Kai. And this time Chen Kai was teleported to other places because of the system, and he hadn't appeared in the fortress for several days, how could Andoha, who sensed the opportunity, not feel excited, and he dreamed of putting Chen Kai in prison with his own hands.
"Phew! What is it! Xuehaifeng spat fiercely at the figure in the distance towards Andoha, he felt that meeting this damn viper man was definitely the result of not looking at the yellow calendar when he went out today.
"That's it! What's so angry about this kind of guy, he can only be majestic in front of us, do you know what Kaiseramo said about him? It's just a pug! Su Xinghe patted Blood Haifeng's shoulder and said, Now in the entire fortress, the aborigines who have a better relationship with them are better than Saka, who eat and live for nothing, that is, Kaiseramo, who often comes to visit. Of course, there are more people with better relations among the mages, after all, Hun Sen, the former head of the mage regiment, is still lying in their tent.
"Let's go! Let's go in and see if we can get Habir to help us deal with our weapons today, after all, completing the mission comes first! Zhao Tiezhu patted his shield and said, and then took the lead in the blacksmith shop. The Habil he said was one of the few remaining dwarven craftsmen in the entire fortress, and he was also a very skilled blacksmith master, so it can be said that if the player wants to strengthen his weapons with meritorious deeds, he can only ask Habil for help, and other dwarves or craftsmen can't do this job at all.
