Chapter 302: Jedi Ascension

Deadly lava is still spreading.

At this time, players have realized that the ground that has been churning around them earlier is actually prepared for this moment.

The deep ground around the obelisk is not very large, and in less than two minutes the player's footsteps are at the edge, but the lava is also close behind them.

What's worse is that the obelisk, as the most central location of the entire terrain, is the highest in the region, so the speed of magma spread is getting faster and faster.

When the player is also running outside, the effect is not so severe, and everyone is going downhill anyway, but when they come to the cliff, the problem is a bit bigger.

"President, here...... Can we climb up in time?" a player stood next to Shijo Toshi, staring up in amazement.

From the vicinity of the central obelisk, it didn't look like it was fashionable, but when they came here, they realized that the cliff was actually high and sloping inward.

Although the slope is not very large, the difficulty of the climb increases exponentially.

"There's no way, spread out and climb up!" Seeing such a scene, "Shijo two" had to grit his teeth and say.

His choice is very correct, there are no high-rise buildings around to hide, and even if there is, it will be destroyed and collapsed by the magma immediately, and the only way to escape is to climb up.

Moreover, the cliffs here are sloping inward, and there are not many points of focus to climb, so players must move separately, otherwise there will be no room for so many players in one area.

As for the other members of the ten-person squad, especially the three foreign aides from other guilds, they didn't need to be commanded by "Four Strip Two" at all, and they had already started to climb.

The real masters know very well that there is no second option at the moment, and even their movements have been slowed down, and it is still unknown whether they can get out.

In desperation, the guild players can only choose to climb, but their skills are uneven. Some people have extremely poor flexibility, even if they have a fourth- or fifth-order body, they can't do this simple thing of internal breath clinging.

As the magma spread to the bottom, it even began to accumulate and rise, and soon some players fell into it due to huge psychological pressure.

The system doesn't allow players to experience too much pain, they all die the moment they touch the lava, and then they start running corpses.

The player who died could only hurry up and run the corpse while crying and thinking of a way: "President, is it useful to go offline now?"

"It didn't work. "Sijo Er", who was still climbing, took the time to reply, "Only the sub-safe zone can quickly go offline, and the wild offline will retain the body." ”

Although the game system is realistic in many aspects, there are many restrictions on the functions that come with the game, such as resurrection, and offline activities.

Offline escape is a common technique used by players, and even many games have all kinds of bugs because of the problem of offline, "Azure" has no bugs, but it also restricts this means.

There are very few absolute safe zones in the game, except for some special enchantments, and in areas such as castles and inns, they can be counted as sub-safe zones.

The sub-safe zone can be freely offline, as long as it is not in combat mode, but not in the field. No matter what the state is, there will be a certain delay in the field online, and the body will continue to retain it for a while.

If someone kills the player during this period, the player will enter the running corpse state as if they were a normal death, but because there is no one to control it, they can only wait for the countdown to end and automatically respawn.

Once the resurrected character will automatically start going offline again, and then continue to delay......

Therefore, it is a very dangerous thing to go offline in the wild, and if there is no one to help take care of it, it is possible to be killed back to level zero.

This setting has been criticized by players, but the official insists on not changing it.

Every day, there is no shortage of players who are careless or lucky, and they are maliciously killed by others many times when they go offline in the wild, and finally cry and shout for the official loss of money and level.

Xu Jia didn't understand it before, because this was obviously a matter that could be solved immediately by adding a code of "offline state does not automatically resurrect".

It wasn't until later that players realized that the game wasn't made up of code, and that the mechanics of player resurrection involved more problems than a single word could be changed.

Regardless of the reason behind this, it doesn't affect the players on the small island to suffer a lot because of this setting.

A small number of players who have not had time to run to the edge of the cliff have already been caught up by the magma, and the resurrection still cannot get out of the range of the magma.

In other words, their resurrection is also only the result of instantaneous death, but they can't just watch it, because they will be resurrected randomly once the time limit is reached, and if they are resurrected inside, they will have to continue to die.

So some people resigned themselves to their fate, chose the card time to resurrect, died as few times as possible, and waited for the magma gushing to end, while others were unwilling to die all the way to the edge and try to climb the cliff.

It's just that so far, no one has managed to climb up, to be precise, not even one who has been able to cross the halfway distance.

"No, it's too hot to hold at all!" a member of the ten-person team, who fell into the lava by mistake, said helplessly on the team channel.

The area around the obelisk is already hot, and the cliffs are even more scorched, making it much more difficult for players to climb and die once...... It's even harder to succeed.

"Shijo II" was also desperate, but he still gritted his teeth and encouraged everyone: "Come on, everyone, as long as one person can go up, you can find a way to save the others!"

He was right, if someone could pick it up from above, even if it was just a rope thrown down, it would be much better than the current situation.

"By the way, what about the NPC who ran away first, if only he could help!"

"That's right, that NPC ran so fast, most of it was arranged by the system to save us, as long as this mission persists!"

"I see, I just said how can there be such an unsolvable task!"

Finally, someone thought of Xu Jia's existence, so one by one, the task changed from escaping to holding on for a moment, and the difficulty suddenly became reasonable.

As for those who can't hold on, they die twice more and lose some ranks, which is also deserved, which is very in line with the consistent style of the system.

This realization lifted the players' spirits, and they even had a little more energy to climb the wall, and for a while, few people fell down again.

However, at this moment, "Shijo II" suddenly screamed, and the figure quickly fell from the cliff, falling straight into the magma below, and instantly turned into a cloud of white light.

The players who were still rejoicing suddenly fell silent.
