Chapter 16: The Chest Is Locked
It's scary to be targeted by a thief, especially if you can't keep up with the other person's reaction and can only fight back passively.
The big flying fish only felt the horror of this female thief at this time, her attack was not extremely high, but the movements between the attacks were too smooth, so that people were led by the other party as soon as they came up, and they were completely passive.
Ni Wen's last backstab and deboning drained the warrior's blood. The aura under the feet of the two of them also dissipated, and the big flying fish was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and he was now left with such a drop of blood.
"Mo Yan, add blood to him." Ni Wen moved a few steps to the direction of the front of the big flying fish, "Now are you willing to join?" โ
"But I didn't make it to 30 percent of my blood." Big Flying Fish lowered his head, "It's because I'm not capable enough." โ
"No, it's been 17 seconds so far." Ni Wen asked, "Mo Yanzhi, at 10 seconds, how much blood does he still have?" โ
"It's 37 percent." Mo Yan replied immediately.
"The pastor of our team, his reported blood volume is still very credible." Ni Wen stretched out her hand to the other party, "Get up, I'll add you to the team." โ
Chopping Blade was relieved to see that Big Flying Fish finally accepted the application for teaming up here. He knew that his brother was arrogant and didn't like to talk much, so he was afraid that he would really offend people at this time.
"Welcome to two new teammates." Ni Wen smiled and said, "I hope our cooperation will be smooth in the future." โ
"That's nature." Chopping Blade came up with the intention of livening up the atmosphere, "We'll be friends from now on." โ
Ni Wen glanced at him with a smile, "I chose a half-orc and still mixed in the empire, my brother has a lot of ideas." โ
"Hahaha. Am I sorry for this? Slash Blade laughed, "There were only a few tasks that I could take on before, which is really sad, but fortunately, the situation has improved now." โ
Ni Wen just smiled slightly and didn't speak, and said in her heart, wait until the empire attacks the Free Alliance for the first time in the future.
"Wenge, there are still two people left to fill the team now, do we have to wait a while?" Ling Feng Chenyang said.
"It's not too early, even if no one has to enter the capital." Ni Wen stood up, "Let's go, I'll go talk to the guard officer." โ
"Dear adventurers, have you decided to go to that town now?" The guard officer confirmed.
"Yes. Please turn on the teleportation circle for me and my teammates. Ni Wen said this, and the guard officer motioned to the two guard NPCs over there to get out of the way, revealing a teleportation array that was flashing with a bright light inside.
Hint: You will be teleported to Plaguetown, please select the quest difficulty.
Hell! She's here for the hellish dungeon!
System Prompt: The Infernal Dungeon Plague Town has been opened, and I wish you all the best.
The last system prompt is something that all team members can hear.
"Hell?" Ling Feng Chenyang was surprised for a moment and then smiled bitterly, why wasn't he surprised at this moment? It seems that since he met this bold female thief, he has become accustomed to cooperating with the other party's actions, and deciding that the other party is fine, he just needs to try to achieve it as best as possible.
The two new warrior brothers were also shocked, and the big flying fish felt a huge pressure after that. He knew that he was in the position of a tank in the team, and as soon as the hellish difficulty came up, the monster attacks would come up for an unknown amount. The big flying fish didn't dare to hold it up at all now, and he wasn't sure if he could resist it.
"Don't be nervous." Ni Wen spoke at this time, "Hell-level playing." When we get good equipment, we change it, and the data can still go up, and then the situation will get better. In the dungeon, Chenyang is the first conductor, and I am the alternate. โ
Ni Wen was a conductor before, and the main reason was her rebirth, but she herself understood that it was better for her to be a combat professional. And Ling Feng Chenyang needs constant training, a good conductor, who hasn't experienced hundreds of battlefields and tempered it?
The map of Plague Town, the whole thing is a whole small village. And the first boss to encounter is the mayor of the town, Clappen, who has been infected here. Clappen's location is in the Fountain Square in the middle of the town, and the player has to advance all the way through the doorway.
The first mob to appear in the dungeon is the plague infected, a humanoid monster. In a normal-level dungeon, this is a level 16 monster with a high attack but not a fast speed. And in the hell level, these monsters have become sub-elites. What does it feel like to be a sub-elite? Now Ni Wen and they know it.
"Is that really okay?" Big Flying Fish is arrogant, and he is not sure at this time, "How will the sub-elite of this area fight?" โ
"These sub-elites, in fact, are just attributes like HP attacks that have increased a little." Ling Feng Chenyang was very calm as a conductor at this time, "Wen Ge will go and try to pull monsters first, and find a feeling of cooperation." โ
Ni Wen is as good as a stream, and now Ling Feng Chenyang is the commander of the copy, as a team member, you must be enough to obey orders first.
Before boss 2, monsters in the dungeon did not have fire damage attached. Ni Wen attracted two monsters, and they were solved after a while. For this kind of mob, even if it is a sub-elite, as long as you are careful not to let the tank face the pressure of too many monsters at the same time, there is no big problem.
In just a few moments, these sub-elites had already dropped five green outfits. That's the huge benefits that come with hellish dungeons.
"There's a spiritual buff skill book here, let's roll it up." Ling Feng Chenyang said, "The effect is to increase intelligence by 5 points. โ
Several legal systems began to throw dice, and the points of July Liuhuo and Yuan Ziyue did not even have fifty, and they threw an 89 at once, and suddenly smiled: "Haha, you black-faced." This skill book is mine. โ
At this time, Mo Yanzhi silently threw a 97, and the laughter of Dandanmian was suddenly stuck in his throat.
"I'm pitching higher, isn't it mine now?" Mo Yanzhi said happily, "It just so happens that I was worried about the amount of treatment I was treating before. โ
How do you sound like you're pulling hatred when you say that! The three Dharma systems next to him looked at Mo Yanzhi and thought secretly, although he could comfort himself that this person was a fool and had a foolish fortune, why was he (her) still so unhappy in his or her heart?
Big Flying Fish and Slashing Blade also feel the atmosphere within this team, regardless of whether a team is strong or weak, what is more attractive is whether the team members get along harmoniously with each other and whether the distribution of various loot is reasonable. And in terms of strength and teamwork, this team is extremely good.
The team moved forward for a moment when they suddenly heard what seemed to be a voice coming from the house next to it.
"It should be the surviving residents." Ling Feng Chenyang said, "Wen Ge go and unlock the lock." โ
This is one of the side quests in the dungeon, and in the hellish dungeon, the more important thing is that the player needs to rescue all the surviving residents here in order to successfully clear the level.
Ni Wen didn't plan to say this now, she used the lockpicking skill against the door, but in the hell level, the skill level requirements for lockpicking have also increased. Ni Wen tried three times and didn't open it, generally speaking, three attempts to unlock the lock are enough, and if you try again, you won't even get the proficiency.
"Come on, let me go." Ni Wen began to decide to use violence, "I'll let it โกโกgo, stay at least 5 yards away, don't be affected by โกโก." โ
A small throwing fried. bullet, which can blow up the door is equivalent to the proficiency of the lockpicking skill 350. For the door in front of you, it's enough.
The door was blown open, and inside was a female NPC, and when she saw that the people who came were not those monsters, her face couldn't help but bring a kind of happiness for the rest of her life, "The gods are above!" Thank you for saving me, are you adventurers sent by the Empire? If you send me out of this town, I will do my best to repay you. โ
Ling Feng Chenyang's eyes flashed, "Let's go to a little more places now to see how many people there are here." โ
Ni Wen smiled secretly in her heart, Ling Feng Chenyang really felt something, what this NPC said was with some hints. "I will do my best to repay", this sentence may be thought by many players to be the same polite words, after all, in the ordinary dungeon, rescuing these NPCs will not get any additional rich rewards.
However, this is not the case in Hell, where if the player rescues all the NPCs, the guard officer will appear before the final boss fight of the dungeon. The guard officer will say that he knows about the situation from the residents, and will add a buff to the players in recognition of their contributions. With this buff, it is possible to clear the level.
The team began to march to the left, following the command's orders, and made their way through the town in search of more survivors.
Almost all the way, you will hear Ni Wen's voice, "Get out of the way!" I'm going to blow up! โ
Ni Wen's small throwing bomb. Bullet is just waiting to do this, and behind this closed door, not all of them are surviving NPCs. When one room exploded, I saw a silver treasure chest inside. Obviously, Plague Town doesn't have no chests as the player claims, it's just that the thieves' unlocking conditions are not met.
"Get out of the way, treasure chest mine!" The July Stream Fire immediately put out the fire, "This time you don't have to blow it up!" My hands are red, I'll touch the treasure chest! โ
Virtue.
Ni Wen smiled, "I'm sorry, this box is locked." Get out of the way, if you can't open the lock, I'll throw it away. Bounced. "Fortunately, this silver treasure chest still stopped Ni Wen from exploding. Bullet the madman's footsteps, she opened it by picking the lock.
If you pick a lock successfully, you will gain more than three times more proficiency than if you failed.
Ni Wen reached into the box and took three more things in her hand. One of them has a green ring with spirit, one is a material, and the other is a skill book for ice archery.
Ice Arrow: Condenses an ice arrow to attack the opponent and inflict an additional 10 cold damage, slowing the target's speed by 40%.
July Flowing Fire immediately said, "I'm focused on the fire system, and I don't use the ice skills." Let's see if it's for sale or find a mage who can cultivate the ice system. โ
"Then this is equivalent to me buying it." Ni Wen said: "I'll share your gold coins." โ
Mages are broadly divided into two directions, elemental mages and arcane mages. Among the elemental mages, they are mainly the three systems of ice, fire and earth. Thunder elemental spells are basically in the hands of shamans. And the mage profession has always been very popular among players, and in the previous life, arguing about which mage was the strongest could be noisy in the game forum.
For players, the learning of skill books only needs to meet the learning requirements, but more skills do not necessarily mean that the strength must be enhanced. Being able to find skills that work with each other and form your own output stream is the right way to improve your strength. And there are many skill books for mages, and you can find a variety of useful combinations in each department, and how to compare these combinations better has become the most headache for mages.
"Let's go back to the city after that and apply for the mercenary group first, and see if we can recruit a few good mages." Ni Wen said, "Are the two brothers interested in coming to play too?" โ
Da Feiyu was very good at speaking at this time, "You are very strong, I have no opinion on joining you." โ
"Haha, the flying fish have joined, so I must not be missing." Chopping Blade smiled: "However, can you give my brother a thorough understanding first?" After that, do you still want to build a guild? โ
This big man looks rough, but his heart is not rough. Ni Wen didn't hide anything, and said directly: "That's right, I have this idea." I am now building a mercenary group to prepare for the elite group in the future. Are you interested? โ
"If everyone who joins the group after this can maintain such a level, then the old brother will naturally follow you!" Although Slashing Blade's face didn't care much, his voice was more serious than before, "If there is such a group, I don't believe that this guild's results will be poor." โ
Another meaning of this is that he will at least see her build an elite group before signing a contract.
It is said that Chopping Blade turned out to be a person in the professional circle, and in "Divine Creation", he changed his ID, so it seems that this is right. Although he is taking the route of violent output, he speaks without leaking water, and his temperament is very stable.
Even if it is reborn, it is not easy to pick up these masters. If you don't have enough power yourself, why should people who have the ability to come? Oh, of course, Mo Yanzhi doesn't count like this, he is a typical example of picking up leaks.
Ni Wen and others searched around the town and rescued a total of 17 NPCs. In the middle, in order to speed up the time, Ni Wen made hints without showing a trace at some times, so the speed of this search was not slow.
"Now that there are so many NPCs, the difficulties have also increased." Ling Feng Chenyang said, "I'll take a look at the NPC's HP, and Mo Yan is still mainly staring at the tank. Everyone should have known about the situation of the boss before, and the damage in the first stage is mainly the jump damage of the lightning chain, and the pressure of treatment is relatively high at this time. When you hit 60% of your blood, the mayor will absorb the NPC's HP to restore herself, and before that, you have to use the Holy Protection, otherwise the NPC will die easily. The second phase is to pay attention to melee combat, and there will be an aura-like debuff around the boss, which can deal continuous damage. โ
"Although it is hellish now, these attacks should still exist, but the attack strength should be increased. First of all, the damage of the lightning chain is gradually reduced, and the team with high magic defense is tried to be on top first to reduce the pressure of healing. It is not ruled out that the boss will increase the skill, let's look at the fight first. Listen to the song and go to the blame. โ
As the mayor of the boss, his stature has now doubled, with fangs on his mouth and even some green saliva running down his body. He was walking up and down the square, as if he were still patrolling the town as he had done before.
Ni Wen stepped forward gently, her eyes were fixed on the boss's body, she found a straight line, and took out the โกโก with an arrow.
Her position suddenly made the big flying fish's eyes light up, he had already seen that by following this position to attract monsters, they could force the boss near the central fountain, and use this natural obstacle to prevent the boss from moving and causing more damage to others.
This is the key role that a thief can play in a dungeon. The profession of a thief is inherently suitable for the position of an investigator in the team. The Rogue is the first member to enter the combat mode, so it also means that as long as the Rogue's head is well opened, the battle will go more smoothly.
The mayor boss was successfully blocked by the big flying fish by the fountain, the position was certain, and the big flying fish immediately set up a set of skills to attract hatred. Ling Feng Chenyang established a second hatred, and then the team began to attack in an orderly manner.
As a new melee DPS, Slash Blade deals as much damage as his damage. The axe itself is the one with the highest attack among all weapon categories, and when a set of skills hit the blade, the single damage figure that comes out is more than half of Ni Wen's.
When the lightning chain appeared, the first damage was mainly on the bodies of Da Feiyu and Ling Feng Chenyang, and the second injury, several people on the Dan Dan side could always catch up and bear it.
Ni Wen was relieved to find that she was familiar with the people of Qiyue Liuhuo, and Yuan Ziyue's skills had indeed improved a lot. She used to rely mostly on attributes and summoned creatures, and she didn't know much about the operation, but from now on, at least she can roughly understand the skill time of the boss.
"Attention!" Ling Feng Chenyang shouted, "Mo Yan stepped back and used the divine protection to put those NPCs in the range!" โ
Mo Yan immediately retreated. At this moment when they were at war with the boss, the rescued NPCs hid against the wall. This is also their program setting.
The divine blessing was used, and a golden aura appeared above the crowd, and it continued to sprinkle light powder downward. Everyone's HP rises instantly!
"Oh my God! You priests! Slashing Blade exclaimed, "This is also an alternative group addition!" โ
