Chapter 257: Crossing

Green stiff is just equivalent to the strength of the first order, compared to purple stiff, that is, it can walk like a human, and jump higher and farther, the body is harder, and the copper armor has become silver armor in the ability, but the weakness is still there, and he is still afraid of light and fire, and is restrained by ink fountains, charms and other things.

This time, the promotion consumption is not much, and the summoning consumption only needs five hundred origin points, Xu Jing can understand it when he thinks about it, the strength of the first-order King Kong is really not something that the green zombie can fight against.

The next stage of the Green Zombie is the Hair Zombie equivalent to the Black Guardian Level B, and in the system's display, the promotion plus sign is still there.

He couldn't figure out how much origin was needed for this step of improvement, and after a little hesitation, he still chose to continue.

With the idea confirmed, it was only a blink of an eye for the system to complete the uplift.

"Consumed 25,000 points."

The first thing Xu Jing looked at was the origin consumption, which made him feel at ease, although the promotion plus sign in the back disappeared, but it was within his estimate, so it seems that the next stage will not need too much.

"Just cross over one more time, and it should be okay to come back."

He hurried to his feet and hurried to the road, eager to reach the mission site immediately.

A day later, Xu Jing came to the vicinity of a beautiful village.

The village was built next to a large river, about two miles from the official road.

It was still bright, but the village was silent, the doors of the houses were closed, and through the windows, the shadows of the houses could be faintly seen.

"Someone's coming."

"Are you here to save us?"

"It's very similar to the temperament of the person who came the day before yesterday, maybe."

Xu Jing rode on a horse, walked around the village, and after hearing the discussion of the people hiding in the house, he shouted: "I am here to help you, come out and have a person in charge to tell me about the current situation." ”

Through the mission information, he already knows about it, and he just wants to confirm it.

There was a commotion in the surrounding houses, and soon one of the doors creaked open, and a trembling old man came out.

The old man, who was the official here, that is, the village chief, had a look of fear in his eyes and explained in detail the ins and outs of the matter.

Just five days ago, an ugly monster with a fishtail and a human body appeared in the river near their village, and this monster began to hide in the water and attack the villagers, pulling people into the water to drown and even eat them.

The villagers were afraid to fetch water, and even if they did, they would rather travel miles to other places.

But after the monster found out, he actually ran directly to the shore, grabbed a child and went back to the water, the villagers were angry, and wanted to join forces to kill the monster, but they didn't want the other party to be extremely powerful, so they easily knocked everyone to the ground, and then asked the village to pay tribute to one person every day.

On the same day, someone tried to escape at night, but the monster was quickly captured and eaten in public.

No one dared to run away until the afternoon before yesterday, when a man who looked like a man from the rivers and lakes came and said that he would help them get rid of the monster.

But the monster was so cunning that it hid in the water and did not come out, and the man did not dare to go into the water, and after a day of ambush, he left because there was other urgent matter.

But before leaving, the man said that someone else would soon come to help them deal with the monster.

Xu Jing listened to the old man silently, the man who came the day before yesterday was also a member of the Black Guard, but the other party was only a low-level C-level strength, and he had other tasks on his body.

After passing by and discovering the high-level merman who appeared here, the man wanted to make more merits, but he didn't wait for the merman to appear for a day, and he didn't dare to go into the water, so he had to report the situation and leave.

Everything fits, Xu Jing met the old man's expectant gaze, nodded and said, "I'm here to help you deal with the monster, has this monster still appeared?" ”

"Yes!" The old man was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "The monster appeared as soon as the man left, and ate two villagers even harder, my lord, you must help us." ”

Xu Jing snorted coldly, turned his gaze to the big river at the edge of the village, jumped off the horse, pulled out his long knife, and walked over step by step.

"Your Excellency." The old man was stunned, he didn't expect Xu Jing to go straight to the river, and shouted hesitantly: "Be careful, he's in the water." ”

Xu Jing didn't respond, he came to the river, his spirit was released, and he found the target in an instant, and the merman was in the depths of the water one meter away from him, hiding his breath and peeping at him.

When he first received the task, he was still very curious about the mermaid, but after seeing the other party's appearance at the moment, he was not interested, and it was far from the mermaid he imagined.

"It's an ugly mermaid......"

The three-meter-long body, the fish-lips and long face, the blood-colored eyes are full of evil, and the body is covered with black scales, and the top of the head is thinning hair, how ugly it is.

Puff~!

Xu Jing simply jumped into the water, and at the same time, the demonic power in his body exploded.

Rumble~!

The water was like a high-explosive bomb exploding, and columns of water rose into the sky, centering on the place where Xu Jing fell into the water, and a wave like a dome appeared, igniting and discharging the surrounding river water.

The merman under the water seemed to have been smashed into the bottom of the water by a huge hammer, and his eyes were full of horror, and he spat blood and got up to escape.

"Die!"

Before the river around Xu Jing could return, he seized the opportunity and threw the long knife in his hand burning with all his might.

Huh~!

A blood flower flew out, and the merman screamed miserably, and was nailed directly into the dirt under the water by the long knife.

The river flowed back, but there was an unquenchable flame burning underwater, Xu Jing swam down, pulled out a long knife, and floated to the surface with the merman's corpse.

Boom~!

With a wave of his hand, he flicked his long knife and threw the still burning corpse of the merman ashore.

"The monster is dead, everyone come out and take a look."

The old man not far away opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief, this adult had killed the monster in less than a cup of tea.

It's like a dream.

The old man came back to his senses and shouted excitedly, and the villagers ran out of the houses one after another, surrounding the mermaid's corpse, cheering incessantly.

Xu Jing went ashore, and the villagers, led by the old man, all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him in thanks.

"Hurry up."

He sighed in his heart, hurriedly helped the old man up, and then submitted a report on the completion of the task to the identity jade plate according to another method taught by Zhu Liejiao.

Thinking of Zhu Lie, he looked at the list of members again, Zhu Lie was still alive, but he still did not reply.

"What the hell is going on?"

Xu Jing was puzzled, and after bidding farewell to the villagers, he got on his horse and left the village.

Another day later, before dark, he returned to the city of Anhe, and everything was safe in his house, and nothing happened in the city.

After accompanying his family to a family dinner, he hurried back to his room and started the crossing.

The situation in the outside world is grim and the tasks are non-stop, and he must now seize the time to improve his strength.
