Chapter 50: The Grave of the Stinging Bee
"I thought the elves would eventually perish, but I was too pessimistic." Tam stretched out his right hand and gently tugged at the corner of his robe, his hand was slender and beautiful, and his skin was almost transparent. This kind of skin indicates that the elf is very old or in poor physical condition, but it seems that his expression does not tell how fragile he really is. He even used his right hand to straighten his hair before saying, "There really isn't anything like that in this world." ”
Ye Ci was a little confused about Tamra's words, and continued to ask along with his words: "What happened?" ”
Tamra glanced at Ye Ci, and there was an overly sharp light in his green eyes, and this light finally dissipated in his smile full of vicissitudes: "There will definitely be no one in this world who will fall apart just because there is one less person." At this, he smiled a little sadly: "Even Dore. "Elven King Dore?" This is probably the first time that Ye Ci has heard this name directly and objectively from the mouth of an NPC, compared to the infinite stream of consciousness when other NPCs talk about Dole, Ye Ci faintly feels that this Tamla may not be the same as what other NPCs see.
"Yes, the greatest hero in the history of the elven tribe, the greatest king, it brings together the elves of all races, under his rule, the elves are unprecedentedly powerful, and they have become a race that no race on the continent of Maga dares to underestimate, how great." Tamra's face was as indifferent as if he were talking about an innocuous little thing when he said these words of praise
Even, his voice was full of the emptiness of an ancient well.
Ye Ci didn't answer, nor did he speak, because Tamra had been looking at the dark cave wall as he said this, but his gaze seemed to be projected into the sky through the cave wall. He continued as if no one was around: "I thought that after Dor's death, the elves would be completely wiped out, but now it seems that even without Dor, one day the elves will still be revived. I wonder if it would be sad if Dole hadn't died, knowing that his abilities were nothing more than that? When he said this, his eyes fluttered over Ye Ci, and there was a sadness in the smile on the side of Chún that Ye Ci couldn't understand.
Then, there was silence in the whole cave, and Tamra did not speak, not even look at Ye Ci, but only sang in a low voice.
This is actually quite common in Destiny, especially when it comes to hidden trigger quests. Since the NPCs who publish these tasks are all highly AI, after he tells a story, the player will be given blank time, so that the player can think about how to answer and deal with the NPC, and then release different follow-up tasks according to the "answer" that the player is dealing with.
This is the reason why even if ten people work together on a hidden task, the final result will vary from person to person.
Ye Ci opened the task panel, and sure enough, he found a task in the hidden task column: talk to Tamra. Under this task description, Ye Ci carefully read all the conversations between himself and Tamra just now, and while watching, he seriously thought about how to deal with what Tamla said just now.
After a moment, she closed the quest panel and said to Tamra, "I'm just an ordinary elf and can't know what it means to be the Elven King of Dol, but I don't think I would be sad if I were in Dole's place." ”
"Oh? Why? Tamra narrowed her eyes and nose, as if she had officially set her eyes on Ye Ci at this time, as if she was looking at her.
"The strength of the elven clan has always been the wish of the elven king, whether he lives or dies.
No one can say that he can influence a world, or a race, and that he has done what he is supposed to do in his time, and to the fullest, is already excellent.
As for what would happen to the elves without him, it wasn't what he feared. Ye Ci smiled.
"How do you know he's not worried, you're not saying you can't know what he's thinking?" Tamra's gaze became more and more sharp, and he looked directly at Ye Ci.
Ye Ci was nervous, she just shrugged her shoulders and exhaled very easily: "Of course, of course I can't know what he's thinking, I just think that a king's xiōng is not comparable to us, so picking up and putting down these things is really nothing to him." ”
Speaking of this, Ye Ci tilted his head and looked at Tamra and smiled: "Respected elder, I am not deeply involved in the world, in fact, many things are very simple, maybe not right, please don't be surprised." Tamra didn't answer Ye Ci, just looked at Ye Ci with a very strange gaze, he looked at Ye Ci for a while, then lowered his head, and laughed in a low voice, "It's simple, it's good to be a man, it's easier to get strength." ”
For such exclamations, Ye Ci is not speaking.
And Tamra quickly raised his head, looked at Ye Ci and exhaled: "Young man, you are a smart adventurer, tell me, are there many clansmen like you?" Ye Ci saluted at Tamra again, and patted his ass silently: "Respected elder, wisdom and wisdom are the cells that flow in the blood of every elf, these things are not what I have, they are given to me by my race, just as it is also given to you." "There is no one in the world who doesn't like to wear a high hat, and there is no one who doesn't enjoy being slapped by others, even the Tamra in front of him. Listening to Ye Ci flattering himself like this, there was a hint of warmth on his tense face. However, he didn't show any happiness or joy because of this, but said lightly to Ye Ci: "Have you read my diary?" "Yes." Ye Ci hurriedly handed over the already pieced diary to Tamra.
Tamra took the diary, her beautiful fingers gently rubbing the epidermis of the diary, and the look on her face became a little sad, as if the whole person was immersed in the memory of her life.
After a while, he said, "When I was young, I was an unruly and inferior fellow, and not only that, but I was cowardly, pessimistic and cold, and I missed so many things that I couldn't even remember." Thankfully, one of the things I did in my life that I don't regret the most was saving the stinging bee.
Ye Ci frowned slightly, and then understood who he was talking about: "Is the stinging bee you are talking about the elf who told you that Dol died?" "Yes, I picked him up in the swamp, saved him, took good care of him, but in the end he died." Tamra raised his head and exhaled a breath, looking at Ye Ci: "Young man, I haven't left here for a long time, and I haven't seen him for a long time, can you help me go and see him?" ”
Ye Ci immediately opened the task panel, and saw that the name of the task on it had changed from "Chat with Tamra" to "Go to find the graveyard of the stinging bee". The specific location of the stinging bee cemetery is described in detail below this task, and it seems that this is not a difficult task, but a running task, and Ye Ci immediately agreed.
Then, Tamra didn't say any more valuable information, just asked Ye Ci to go back quickly, then lowered his head and hummed the song, no matter how Ye Ci spoke, he didn't answer. It seems that to get the next mission, Ye Ci can only go to find the stinging bee's graveyard first, see what clues there are, and then come back.
Leaving the cave, Ye Ci summoned Lao and asked him to fly lower, and then jumped down from the entrance of the cave himself, and Lao Ze caught her steadily. Then Ye Ci pulled up the old tell, and flew towards the map of Despair Swamp that the mission prompted.
Located in the southwest of the continent, the Swamp of Despair is not a very large map, but the location is very special, it is one of the maps where the Rebels and the Naga Army clashed the most.
Not only that, but this is the only map with a water source on the edge of the ancient battlefield, so it is also one of the maps where the Rebels and the Naga fought the most.
Although many years have passed since the Great War, you can still see the traces of the burning of the war here. The most obvious thing is that this was originally a lush green field with clear spring water everywhere, but now it has become a swamp, and because of the huge magic influence of the Naga, the rebels and Naga minions who died here have become floating corpses, water ghosts and wandering húns in the swamp, turning a originally vibrant field into a lifeless swamp.
Hence the name Swamp of Despair.
Swamp of Despair is an advanced map, and the monsters in it are all above level 100, and in the later stage, it is an excellent place for mages to team up and burn monsters. Just because there are too many monster farms here, as long as you just hold a small puddle and put a yòu enemy buff, you can see the monsters crawling out of the puddle in a steady stream. Of course, it is for this reason that this map has also become one of the forbidden places for solo players, and the monsters that refresh too quickly are really not something that single players can resist.
Ye Ci sat on the old man's back, parked above a puddle on the edge of the Swamp of Despair, and looked down at the map.
Unlike other map monsters roaming around, the monsters of the Swamp of Despair are silent until the player is not triggered, and they are not visible at all if they are not careful.
The sound of whimpering wind blowing on the map of the Swamp of Despair sounded a little deflated, especially when I looked at the corpses of various rebels floating on my back on those puddles, how I looked at it, I felt that the hairs on my back were about to stand on end. They all lay on their backs in the puddle with pale faces, and the clear water covered their faces with young or old faces, but don't think that these corpses are harmless in this way, in fact, they have been eroded into floating corpses by the powerful magic of the Naga.
When the player stands on the edge of a puddle and focuses on their corpses, the corpses will open their eyes and look harmless, and once the player has DBUFF of these corpses, the floating corpses will bounce straight up from under the surface of the water, grabbing the player and dragging them into the water.
However, there are ways to deal with this kind of monster, and if the player is far away from the water, even if the floating corpse opens its eyes and jumps out of the water, it will not be able to catch the player. Just like now, Ye Ci looked at the floating corpses that jumped out of the water and wanted to catch her but had no way, and lù let out a hateful smile.
She manipulated the old man to spit out a mouthful of dragon breath towards those floating corpses, but found that the old dragon breath sprayed on their bodies were all "MISS" She finally gave up, and sure enough, the level of this kind of thing is an insurmountable mountain in online games, and the level difference is too much, and the dragon against the sky is also wooden.
At this point, Ye Ci will also die of the heart of killing the monster training here, otherwise, she will ride the old man around the swamp, lead a bunch of floating corpses to run out, and then let the old breathe fire, isn't that the explosion of experience points? It seems that game planners are not stupid, and this kind of bug will definitely not exist.
Ye Ci sighed, and could only go to the stinging bee's grave.
Following the instructions on the quest, the stinging bee's grave is buried on the northern side of the Swamp of Despair on the border of the Scorched Black Fields. The Scorched Black Field is the place where Tamla recorded in his diary, and it is also a map close to the ancient battlefield, but because of some natural barriers, this was once one of the most concentrated maps of rebel refugees, and this is also a high-level map, but the level of monster distribution is slightly lower than that of the Swamp of Despair.
At the most terrifying time, there were high-level empty monsters in the sky above these two maps, and the level higher than the old one was not a little bit, Ye Ci only dared to fly cautiously along the edge of the map, holding his tail and being a man, so as not to offend these bosses, and he was directly resurrected into the prison of Hero City.
In view of the experience of escaping in the previous life and the experience of surviving in the wild in this life, Ye Ci bypassed several flying monsters without danger, and quickly found the grave of the stinging bee before they paid attention to him. She jumped off the old man's back, put away the old one, and immediately went into a stealth state, found a safe corner and looked around, and only slowly came to the stinging bee's grave when she made sure that the monsters were swimming far away from her.
This is a very simple tomb, not even built with earth, just built with stones and branches, and now because of the long-term rain erosion, this tomb has collapsed half of the nose, Ye Ci can even see some broken bones from the cracks of the collapsed tomb, and some bones are scattered around the tomb, compared to the experience of the stinging bee, this tomb gives people a very desolate feeling.
