Chapter 35: The Search for Vosoko
"There is a mechanical trap twenty-seven degrees in front of the left, seven yards in diameter, going around." Liu Nian walked cautiously in front of him, and at the same time told Ye Ci behind him what he had detected.
Ye Ci accurately bypassed this trap according to the prompts of the flowing years.
"There is a mechanical trap fifteen degrees in front of the left, ten yards in diameter. There is a mechanical trap at seventeen degrees in front of the right, ten yards in diameter. The two traps are parallel, there is a path of 1.5 yards between them, you need to pass through, pay attention to your feet, the digging of the trap causes the path to be soft and soft, don't walk too hard, so as not to trigger the trap. "Liu Nian probably often does this kind of path-finding work, and he has already made the most accurate judgment just by taking a look at it in the case of mechanical exploration.
Although Liu Nian is from the Western Continent, in this copy, in the absence of Ye Ci's mechanical exploration, she can only choose to believe in Liu Nian unconditionally. This is not easy for Ye Ci to do, but after more than half an hour of running-in, she suddenly found that it is not difficult to believe this person. Although, Liu Nian usually doesn't feel very good about himself, but it can't be denied that in the dungeon, in the mission, this is indeed a trustworthy teammate.
"There's a mechanical dog coming up ahead, let's pull over and wait." Finally, the two of them walked through a path full of traps, and just after entering the city of Vosoko, they saw a mechanical dog slowly walking in their direction.
The mechanical dog must have been too long, the original bright color of its body has become mottled, there are rust everywhere, and the cacophony of lack of engine oil can be heard when it walks. However, despite this, its eyes glow red, which means that the mechanical dog has not lost its original function.
Goblin engineering is indeed much more advanced than the engineering that the average player learns. The average player is rarely able to create engineering objects with vital signs, let alone things like mechanical dogs and robots. In addition to its vivid appearance, the mechanical dog also behaves like a normal hunting dog. It roams around a designated area without any rules, sometimes sticking its nose to the ground and sniffing incessantly, and if it weren't for the screeching of its body because it hasn't been oiled for too long, it would almost make people think that it is a living hound.
The name of the mechanical dog is not red, but yellow, which means that as long as Ye Ci and Liunian do not take the initiative to attack it, it will not attack two people.
It's just that sometimes people are always blinded by convention, which leads to capsizing in the gutter. It's like the current leaf words and the flow of years. They sneaked around the corner for a while, and found that the mechanical dog was just a monster, so they didn't pay attention to it, and decided to continue walking, but they didn't realize that when they passed near the mechanical dog, the mechanical dog suddenly pounced on the two of them as if it had been beaten with chicken blood, and began to launch the most violent attack
Such an attack was nothing, and at its most annoying, it let out a high-pitched bark, and all the mechanical dogs and goblins in the area it patrolled were coming in their direction
"Damn, it turns out that this mechanical dog is the condition to trigger the monster" Ye Ci simply gritted his teeth, the speed of the mechanical dog was extremely fast, and it was directly pasted on two people, and a large number of mechanical dogs and goblins were going to rush over, Liu Nian and Ye Ci had no way to open the distance to shoot, so they had to summon a pet, four besieged one, and killed the mechanical dog as quickly as possible.
When the mechanical dog still had 10 health bars left, Ye Ci withdrew and rushed in the direction where the goblins and mechanical dogs were running, burying frost traps and freeze traps at the fastest speed. Then she retreated, and by this time Liunian and the old four and five had already put down the mechanical dog, and the mechanical dogs and goblins who came from behind stepped on the freezing trap and were immediately frozen into huge ice cubes.
And before they were frozen, Liunian had already thrown a hunter's mark on the head of one of their goblins, which meant that it would be the target of the next battle between the two of them. Just when a group of monsters were frozen, and the goblins marked with the hunter's mark had been attracted by Ye Ci, Liunian rushed to the edge of the trap and made up another Freezing Trap and Frost Trap.
Although the two have never teamed up, their fighting habits are very similar, so after a round of fighting, they quickly got together with each other. The speed of fighting monsters has also become faster. There were about twenty goblins and mechanical dogs in this batch, and after two rounds of traps were set up by the two of them, there were only seven or eight left. Liu Nian said to Ye Ci: "Forget the multiple arrows in seconds, there are only seven or eight, just elite monsters, it shouldn't be too difficult." ”
Ye Ci just thought the same thing. She let out the fourth child to push forward, and she threw out an arrow net first, and then gave up multiple arrows with Liunian.
An arrow net, coupled with the multiple arrows of two high-level hunters, its powerful power is enough to kill most of the tenth-level elite monsters in an instant, and there are also two not weak pets to attack, and those remaining goblins and mechanical dogs all fell before they even had time to get close to the two of them.
Ye Ci looked at the battle time, three minutes and forty-seven seconds. Twenty-two tenth-level elite monsters all fell, and sure enough, they were very fast.
Liu Nian sat down and began to recover her mana, although Ye Ci didn't need to reply to blue, but on the western continent, her physical strength dropped faster than in the eastern continent, so she often had to sit down to replenish her physical strength. The fourth child shook his fat ass and rushed to Ye Ci to start currying favor and begging for food. Ye Ci reached out and took out a piece of roasted quail from the package and threw it to the fourth child, the fourth child picked it up excitedly and caught it, and then looked at Xiao Wu who stopped in the air and flashed his wings provocatively, and his little eyes were very cheap.
Xiao Wu squeaked and flew around the passing year, seemingly angered by the fourth, but because it was a small team, they couldn't attack each other, so they began to complain to the master, hoping that the master would take action to seek justice for himself. Liu Nian just reached out and patted Xiao Wu's head, and then also threw a piece of high-grade barbecue to it to appease its uneasy emotions.
This is the first time that Ye Ci has watched the pet of the Flowing Year so closely, this is a huge bat with a dark red body, a pair of fleshy wings spread out to be seven or eight yards long, a pair of green eyes with a fierce light hidden, the front paws have degenerated, but its hind claws are very strong and powerful, with deadly hook-like claws, it seems that it is not easy to mess with. However, at this moment, Ye Ci didn't find anything fierce about this bat, only found a kind of child's coquettish anger.
"Your bat doesn't seem to be your usual bat." Ye Ci made a judgment, after all, ordinary bats, even elite-level bats, are not so big and vicious, this kind of bat is an epic monster at a glance: "It's epic." ”
"Well, I ran into it by chance in the Togo Canyon, and I almost hung up to catch him." Liu Nian nodded, and then looked at the fourth child who was shaking his head and tail: "Your Tyrannosaurus rex is not an ordinary Tyrannosaurus rex, is it?" ”
"Well, it's about the same as you, you almost fell to death to catch him." Ye Ci nodded, with a rare smile on his face. In fact, when two hunters are together, there are still many topics that can be discussed, from strategy and tactics to skills and techniques, from equipping weapons to pet breeding.
"It's conceivable." Liu Nian understands Ye Ci's statement very well, epic creatures are not so easy to capture, and every hunter with epic pets has an endless bitter past behind him. "What's your Tyrannosaurus rex called?"
"Fourth." Speaking of his pets, Ye Ci didn't seem to have so much defense against the passing year, and even opened the conversation box in a good mood: "What about yours?" ”
"Little Five."
"Why is it called Little Five?" Ye words are inexplicable.
"I'm the head, the second is too ugly, and the third is too immoral, so my pet starts from the fourth row, and the fifth is the second pet, according to the ranking, so it's the little five." Liunian is very complacent about his name, and it is easy to remember the method. "What about yours? Why is it called the fourth? ”
Ye Ci twitched the corners of his mouth, he really didn't want to answer this question, it turned out that there were guys in this world who didn't know how to name like himself......
"How many pets do you have?" Liu Nian looked at Ye Ci, and an elusive smile appeared on his lips.
"Two."
"Your first pet won't be called the third child, will you?"
"How do you know" Ye Ci was a little surprised, is it so easy to guess?
"Definitely you are the boss, the second because it involves a certain part of the male is not good and can't be on the stage, so you don't have it, so you jump directly to the third, and when you get to this dinosaur, it's the fourth." Liu Nian laughed: "Little boy, I didn't expect that your idea of naming me is still similar." ”
"It's called incompetent, it's the same thing...... Ye Ci muttered, this year's cheekiness is really thick enough, this kind of embarrassing thing can be said so high-sounding in his mouth, there are not many people with such thick skin in this world.
The two rested for a while, and continued to walk forward after the fourth and fifth children were full of wine and food.
Now that I know how to trigger this monster, the two of them don't need to sneak around, and walk directly in the city of Vosoko. It used to be a city full of birds, but now it is full of dead trees and rotten branches, the riverbed has dried up, and you can still see the bones of many fish in the cracks of the stones at the bottom of the river. If it weren't for the mechanical dog, the two of them would have been able to pass by the goblins here, but their expressions looked dull, and there was no trace of gleam in their big eyes.
The two of them cautiously moved forward while constantly scouting, and if they found any traces of the mechanical dog, they would kill it immediately, and they would not give it a chance to bark at all. Vosoko wasn't big, but it took a lot of time to go around like this, and when the two of them sat down to rest again, it was time for dinner.
Seeing that Ye Ci didn't mean to go offline, Liu Nian asked her, "What?" Don't go offline for dinner? ”
Ye Ci shook his head: "No, the time for this task is too tight, in order to complete this task, I have already loaded the nutrient solution, there is no special situation, I will not go offline until I complete this task." She said and looked at Liu Nian, although she has to do tasks all the time and has no time to eat and sleep offline, it doesn't mean that she has to follow her all the time, anyway, her supplies are relatively sufficient now, and it is not easy to use troublesome people to send supplies for the time being. So she said, "Go down to eat, I won't run around, I'll always be in the dungeon." ”
Liu Nian wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, he nodded: "Okay, I'll go offline, you pay more attention to the surrounding situation in the dungeon, be careful." ”
"I understand." Although the two have always been at odds, Ye Ci still humbly accepts Ye Ci's instructions for the current year. After all, if you die in this dungeon as yourself, not to mention the inevitable punishment of losing experience and equipment, just running the corpse is a rather troublesome situation.
After confirming Ye Ci's nod, Liu Nian didn't say much, and went directly to the underground line.
Ye Ci sat for a while, waiting for her stamina to be full, and then she walked towards the city of Vosoko. Although there are still many goblins living here, the strange thing is that they do not wander in the city, but only wander around the edge of the city without any regularity, which makes the already dilapidated city even more desolate. Ye Ci held the elven compass in one hand and walked slowly on the streets of Vosoko, which was now full of leaves and mud behind the grass**, emitting a fishy smell, but if you look closely, you can still see a lot of small wildflowers blooming in the corners.
I don't know why, probably because these fresh wildflowers are raging and blooming, which makes Ye Ci feel that the city is even more desolate. Ye Ci doesn't know the language of ancient goblins, so she can't read the words written on the shops on the streets and alleys, but fortunately, there are some signs on these shops, and these signs are no different from the store signs on the entire continent, which allows Ye Ci to smoothly distinguish where is the grocery store and where the pharmacy is ......
Since this was once a city, there must have been something in these shops.
With such thoughts, Ye Ci casually walked into a store, the containers inside were already in a mess, she searched carefully, but she didn't find anything useful, it seems that those equipment, potions and other things have long been destroyed when Vosoko was declining. Despite this, Ye Ci did not give up hope, she still searched door to door on the street, hoping to find something useful.
The hard work paid off, in a gem-inlaid shop, Ye Ci really found a few flawless gems, although not much, but this kind of gemstone is now priceless on the market, just these few gems have made Ye Ci's efforts in the past few days not in vain. In a good mood, she dropped the gems into the package and continued her search.
At this moment, a sharp prompt sound sounded from the goblin compass: "There is danger, there is danger, there is danger forty-five degrees in front of the left."
Hearing such a prompt, Ye Ci immediately disbanded the fourth child, and then entered a stealth state. She is now in an ordinary resident's house, the window is open to the street, Ye Ci is hiding under the window, she quietly got up and poked her head out, and looked in the direction of the forty-five degree angle in front of the left according to the prompts in the goblin compass, there is indeed a small alley over there, and she can't find anything, if it weren't for the constant alarm in the goblin compass, Ye Ci would probably think that this is a mechanical prank.
She waited quietly for less than a minute before she heard the sound of neat footsteps coming from far and near. Probably because the streets of Vosoko were not stone, the footsteps were not too loud, but they were very neat, and as you can imagine, there should be quite a few of them.
"Little boy, where are you?" Just when Ye Ci was still stretching her neck and looking out of the window, she received an interrogation from the team of Liunian.
"Look at the map yourself." When did this guy come up? Unbeknownst to her, she didn't notice it at all.
"I'm on the roof across from you, according to the map, you should be near me, why didn't I see you?" This is the strange place of the flowing years, the map clearly shows that Ye Ci is in a room on the street opposite him, but he has not found any trace of Ye Ci.
Ye Ci adjusted his gaze and looked towards the house opposite him. In fact, it was a house, but it was a huge tree that had died, and she soon discovered the flowing years hidden in the shade of the trees, so she replied: "I'm under the window, and the goblin compass just now prompted that there is danger at forty-five degrees in front of the left, and I only heard the sound, but I didn't see what it was.
Liu Nian looked for Ye Ci's location again, and finally found her, and then looked towards the place described by Ye Ci, and sure enough, a black oppressive orc walked towards the street where the two were located.
"Did you find out what it was, don't skip words.
"A bunch of orc guards." Liu Nian also began to sneak up, and then began to describe according to what he saw: "The number is about forty to fifty, each level is above level ten, elite, it should be chained, as long as you move one, all of them will come over." ”
"Are there any mechanical dogs?" Because he suffered the loss of the mechanical dog at the beginning, Ye Ci is still quite concerned about this thing, that mechanical dog is like a real hunting dog, and the sense of smell is very developed, if there is a mechanical dog, it is easy to find out about their existence. If this is the case, according to the current situation of the two people, there is only one way to die.
"I haven't seen it yet." Liu Nian looked at it carefully for a while, "You hide and don't move, don't make a sound, as long as there are no bloodthirsty undead, we shouldn't be discovered." ”
In fate, each race has a racial specialty, such as elves, who are born to be hidden better than other races, humans are born to be more intelligent than other races, and the undead, whose perception is naturally stronger than other races.
Although the bloodthirsty undead are monsters, they are also undead in the final analysis, so their perception must be very high, and if they exist, it is easy to find the taste of the living. Especially...... The taste of the living.
As the two of them spoke, the group of evil orcs got closer and closer. Ye Ci buried his head under the window, allowing himself to better hide in the shadows of this room, and even held back his breath, just to avoid being discovered by these orcs.
Liunian squatted on the treehouse, completely hiding his body under the shadow of the dead tree and parasitic plants, and through the leaves of the plants, he quietly probed the group of orc guards who came over. Unlike the monsters in the Blood Wilderness, these orc guards are dressed in neat armor, holding silver glittering weapons in their hands, and their steps are uniform and majestic.
The group of orc guards walked extremely powerfully, making a very wet sound when they stepped on the soft ** dirt floor, and behind them was a more advanced soldier. He was wearing a silver helmet with two long feathers, a huge spear on his back, almost armed to the teeth, and a blue-skinned Kodo beast under his crotch. Liunian threw an observation spell at the orc, and obtained its attributes.
Orc Patrol Captain: Thirteen Poles, Elite, HP: 500000/500000.
"At the back of the team, there is a captain of the guard, an elite of the thirteenth pole, with a blood volume of 500,000." Liu Nian knew that Ye Ci's current hiding location was invisible, so he took the initiative to tell Ye Ci about any situation.
"Perverted." Ye Ci rolled his eyes, although this amount of blood is not thick, but, the elite of the thirteenth pole, it is not so easy to say that they will be killed, plus so many guards, they can only sigh.
"These monsters can't be killed, just wait for them to pass." Liunian hid his body in the shadows again.
The orc patrol soldiers had already walked into the street between the two, and suddenly they stopped, and the first few orcs began to sniff around, and then spoke orc language that Liu Nian did not understand. "What are they talking about? Was it discovered? ”
Ye Ci had learned the language of the ancient orcs, so he could understand what this group of orcs were saying. But what they were talking about was clearly quite unfavorable to the two of them.
"It's a bit bad, they found out that there is a smell of beasts on this street, it should be the smell left by the fourth child just now."
Orcs are an excellent race of natural hunting, they are different from elves, they are better at tracking, so the smell of some beasts is very sensitive to orcs.
"You haven't entered the battle yet, you're off the line." When Liu Nian heard this, he immediately said to Ye Ci that before entering the battle, players can go offline at will, as long as the team is not disbanded, when it goes online for a while, players will still be in place. "Going live in half an hour."
"Okay." Ye Ci can't think of any good way now, she has the smell of the fourth child, and if she continues to hide like this, she will soon be discovered by the orc patrols, and the best way is to go offline. She didn't delay and went offline immediately.
After watching the head of Gongzi Yu in the team go to ashes, Liu Nian continued to calm down and hide in the shade of the tree. He went offline just now, and he didn't summon pets after going online, and he didn't have the smell of Xiao Wu on his body, so as long as he kept hiding here quietly and didn't make a little noise, there shouldn't be anything.
The orc guards not far away, because of Ye Ci's offline line, suddenly lost the source of the smell, which made them a little confused, they sniffed around, but still found nothing, so they had to squeak and start reporting this matter to the guard captain. Obviously, the captain of the guard did not attach much importance to this matter, and after listening to the report of his subordinates impatiently, he waved his hand and said a series of words that he could not understand for many years, and the whole team regrouped again and set off again.
Bang bang bang.
The intelligence of the orc guards was not high, and since the captain of the guard said to move on, they did not continue to look for what had just happened, and after arranging up neatly, they went far along the street.
It wasn't until their shadows went far away that Liu Nian slowly exhaled a breath, which is too mysterious, if it weren't for the timely arrival of Gongzi You's offline, a few seconds later, I am afraid that both of them would be discovered.
Soon, the orcs left, and the street returned to its calm and decadent old form. After observing it carefully, and after confirming that there were no more orc guards, he jumped from the tree house to the ground, then lowered his center of gravity, and quickly ran into the house where Ye Ci was hiding, where he hid.
It's just that a moment before he hid, he suddenly heard a crisp voice behind him: "Hey, stranger, what are you doing here"
Ye Ci went offline, because she agreed with Liunian to go online in half an hour, so she quickly went to the kitchen to find something to eat at this opportunity. Although the nutrient solution can ensure the various sound needs of the body, it is different from eating, in addition to filling the stomach when eating, the more important reason is to satisfy the appetite, especially Ye Ci, who is actually a foodie, and not eating is really a painful thing for her.
Almost pinching the line on the watch, Ye Ci still appeared under the window of the room, but when she could see what was in front of her, the first thing that caught her eye was a huge green face with a pair of egg-sized eyes staring at her, so frightened that she took a step back sharply, and immediately pulled out her short sword and made a defensive posture.
"Wow, I'm scared to death, why did another elf suddenly come out of here." Ye Ci didn't have time to say that he was frightened, but he didn't expect that guy to shout like this.
Ye Ci only fixed his eyes at this time, and it turned out that it was a goblin who spoke. In fact, it looks quite normal, of course, it refers to the normality of the goblin, just now I felt that its face was huge, mainly because it was too close to Ye Ci, and the person standing behind the goblin was not Liunian and who was.
"This is my companion." Liu Nian introduced Ye Ci to the goblin with a smile, and then said to Ye Ci in the team: "Meeting an NPC seems to be different from other NPCs, this NPC is a friendly NPC, and the mental state is relatively normal." ”
"Oh, that's an elf too." The goblin looked Ye Ci up and down, with a big smile on his green cheeks: "Hello, my name is Nicky." ”
"Hello, my name is Gongziyou." After listening to Liu Nian's explanation, Ye Ci put away his short sword and saluted Nicky very respectfully to show his friendliness.
"Ha, that's the other companion you were talking about, right, so now can you help me without skipping words. Nicky was obviously not particularly interested in Ye Ci's salute, he nodded at Ye Ci, and then immediately turned his head to Liu Nian to ask.
"Of course, there is no problem." While agreeing to Nicky, Liu Nian began to explain to Ye Ci in the team: "I just met Nicky here, he gave us a task, let's go to the square of the Goblin Palace to find his package, I don't think it contradicts your mission route, I'll take it, no problem." ”
"No, I'm going there anyway." Ye Ci nodded, of course, the task in the dungeon is that if you don't miss it, it's best not to miss it.
Nicky looked very happy with Liunian's promise, and he took out two red stones from his body and handed them to the two people: "These are two energy cores, which are used to operate mechanical chariots. As you know, the best thing about us goblins is engineering, which is why Vosoko is so broken. Now the backpack is in the corner of the square, and I think there must be a large number of orcs and undead gathered there, and you will never be able to retrieve my backpack if you fight alone. So, I'll lend you these two cores for use first. You take these two energy cores to the northwest corner of the palace square, where there are a lot of goblin chariots, the undead and orcs are brainless fools, they can't manipulate those things, so they keep those goblin chariots there, in fact, they don't know that goblin chariots need energy cores to activate. "Nicky was a goblin with a lot of words, and he crackled a lot before finally telling the two of them the most important point.
"Goblin chariots have a variety of different uses, some have to be used for defense, some have to be used for attack, some are medical carts, you have to choose well to finally defeat those orcs and undead."
Standing in the northwest corner of the palace square, Ye Ci and Liu Nian looked at the row of chariots and began to discuss which two were better.
"The defense is definitely the same as T, there won't be many attacks, but if you don't open the defense, can you resist it?" Ye Ci stood between the two chariots and struggled, the defensive chariot on her left and the attack chariot on her right, she really couldn't decide which one to drive.
"Let's attack, I'll open the healing, and I'll add blood to you later." Liunian has already equipped a medical vehicle with energy cores.
Ye Ci sighed, it is indeed a bit dangerous to have one less person, but the light can block it, and it is useless if it doesn't hurt, so let's attack. The attack chariot was equipped with energy cores, and Ye Ci also jumped on the chariot.
This kind of operating machinery is still relatively rare in the early stage of fate, but there are many in the later stage, such as driving chariots, catapults, cannons, and even airplanes, which can be really enjoyable for players. However, compared with the difficulty of operation in the later stage, the machinery in the early stage is relatively simple. Ye Ci often drove this thing in his previous life, so he didn't have a hand at all, but it was the first time he drove it in the past year, and he jumped on the medical car and got familiar with it after a few laps before he got started.
Then the two men drove towards the palace square.
I don't know if I don't enter the palace square, but it is really shocking when I enter the palace square. The square was densely packed with countless undead and orcs. Throwing a reconnaissance technique in the past, it is not difficult to find that the level of these undead and orcs is not high, and they are not elite monsters, but they are superior in numbers, so many undead and orcs will rush over like a tide once they are attracted, and they will drown two people in an instant.
"Oh, that's exciting." Liu Nian narrowed his eyes, although he said this, but there was a smile on his lips. He has this look on his face whenever he is interested in something.
Ye Ci took a deep breath: "I'll go from the corner first, try not to lead the big army, and see how much I can deal with." ”
Liu Nian nodded, when he didn't know the depth of the other party, it was obviously the best way to sail the Ten Thousand Year Boat carefully.
Ye Ci began to attack, and the chariot began to clean up from the most corner. There are three abilities on this attack vehicle, one is a single attack, one is a group attack, and the other is a large area of group attack. Its last large-area group attack has the strongest lethality, but the cooldown time is the longest, while the single attack has the worst attack power, but it is instantaneous. At the beginning, Ye Ci could only use the skills of a single attack to clean up the monsters one by one, however, although the attack power of this single attack was not high, it was enough to deal with a single undead and orc, one shot at a time, very simple.
It's just that these undead and orcs live in groups, and it's easy to attract a group of people by hitting one, so after a few single attacks, Ye Ci still has to put a group attack to kill those guys around his chariot. The attack of this attack chariot is good, but the defense is the lowest, if it weren't for the fast increase in the health of the medical cart in the later years, I am afraid that Ye Ci's chariot would have fallen apart long ago.
After three or five minutes of fighting, Ye Ci discovered something. This chariot is the same as the original one* in the dungeon, and it also pays attention to a combo rate, if the combo rate is higher, the skill cooldown time of a large group attack will be less, and the attack power will be stronger. Not only that, but the chariot also has a storage of energy points, which will be activated when the combo rate reaches a certain level, as long as the energy point storage reaches 10 points, it can activate a hidden chariot skill, which stuns all monsters within a range of 50 yards for ten seconds.
These discoveries really made Ye Ci happy, as the operation of the chariot became more and more flexible, and the killing range became larger and larger, there was not much time, and the corpses of the dead undead and orcs were almost piled up in the entire square.
