Chapter 312: Stronghold No. 17
It's a good opportunity, and there's no better chance than blending in with the gathering place of this world, even if it's not a good one.
Then the two talked about the battle and the monsters, and the middle-aged man's face was full of worry, worried about his world situation.
This Ye Qing didn't have much emotion, he came from reality, the real human race is thriving day by day, occupying thousands of galaxies, even if it is one of the top races in the entire universe, although there are also powerful foreign enemies, but it is not like this world is forced by demons to the point of close destruction.
After a while, the middle-aged paladin's teammates regained their strength one after another, and they decided to set off.
Ye Qing asked Mi Xiaoyu to sit on the berserk bear and asked her to condescendingly check the surrounding vigilance, he still walked with the middle-aged paladin, ready to explore more intelligence and information.
Along the way, he didn't encounter many large groups of Fallen Demons, but he encountered many undead such as zombies and skeletons, and through small talk with the middle-aged paladin, he knew that this wasteland would be regularly swept by heroic professionals or high-level warriors every once in a while, and the demon groups that were large enough to be eliminated to a certain extent.
From this, he found two new terms, hero professional and war professional, combined with the news that the brute bull probed from the dwarf and the information in the Diablo game, Ye Qing had a certain understanding of the power system of this world.
Hero professions, that is, the seven major professions in the game, Barbarian, Paladin, Assassin, Mage, Necromancer, Druid, Amazon, the ability is exactly the same as the seven major professions in the game, and it also has a hero template and three skill trees, which is the main force in this world to resist demons.
The combat profession is a profession formed by the loser of the hero profession, although the transfer failed, but some gained some strength, and some will have several professional skills, and obtain a broken version of the career template, thus combining their own combat habits to form a new profession.
There are only seven hero professionals, but there are more than thousands of professionals, and almost every failed person has different abilities, no wonder the middle-aged paladin is not surprised to see Ye Qing's spell, it turns out that this is the case.
The middle-aged paladin is also a combat officer, not a heroic class paladin, but he obtained the holy fire skill of the paladin when he changed classes, and built his own unique combat style with this as the core.
The professional skills of this world are very simple, but they are very powerful, even the simplest mage fireball technique is greater than Ye Qing's three-ring fireball technique, even the most basic level power is greater than his, and the power increases straight as the skill level increases.
You must know that their skill level is not as difficult to improve as the reincarnation, a little skill point can be improved a little, if the master upgrades a certain skill, it is easy to improve to a very high level.
The more he knew, the more greedy Ye Qing felt, especially when he heard that everyone in this world, regardless of race, would have a chance to experiment as long as he was an adult, he immediately became excited, his brain turned rapidly, and he wondered if it was possible to obtain the hero profession of this world.
This hero class does not conflict with his hero inheritance, if he can get it, it will be cool, and it will definitely greatly improve his strength.
You must know that there are extremely strong people in this world, and those hero professionals who have been promoted to the top level have the power of not inferior to the demon god, which is equivalent to a reincarnation of the fourth and fifth order.
It's a pity that he doesn't know the specific division of strength in this world, which inevitably alerts them that he didn't dare to ask, and can only find out slowly by listening to the side attack.
The seventeenth gathering place that this middle-aged paladin named Di said is a gathering place for professionals unique to this world, invaded by demons, most of the entire world has been occupied by demons, and the erosion of demonic energy makes it impossible for the earth to grow plants, which is the ubiquitous mist, which contains demonic energy, and if you stay here for a long time, you will be affected by demonic energy and become violent.
Fortunately, the power of the demons here is very weak, and the corresponding demonic qi is not strong, he doesn't feel anything for the time being, I heard that in the lower world and the deepest world, the demonic qi there can instantly demonize mortals.
Well, the lower world is the nightmare difficulty in Ye Qing's eyes, and the deep world is the hell difficulty.
Therefore, only the rear of the Rog Fortress can be planted in the entire continent, and the Rog Fortress is the last fortress of mankind, and once it is breached, the consequences are unimaginable.
But on the mainland, in addition to the Rog Fortress, there are many important strongholds, which are dedicated to the foothold of professionals when they are training outside, and as more and more professionals gather, some of them are growing bigger and bigger, similar to a small town.
Gathering Place Seventeen is such a stronghold at the junction of the Stone Fields and the Icy Plains, which has grown into a small town scale, and the Frozen Plains Professionals generally enter the deeper parts of the Stone Fields through here, or those who venture back from afar to return to Rog Fortress.
That's right, it's Rog Fortress, not Camp Rog like in the game.
It's normal to think about it, Diablo is just a stand-alone game, and the novice village doesn't need to be big, but in the real world, Rog Camp is the last resistance of the whole world, if it is not strong, where can it block the attack of demons, you must know that these demons are not weak chickens, and the worst sinking demons are all elites, the city is not strong, and the walls are not solid.
They were not very far from the seventeenth gathering place, just over a day's journey, and at noon the next day they saw the high walls of the gathering place.
That's right, the city wall is at least thirty meters high, built in the middle of a canyon.
According to Di, the high-level heroes who established the gathering place steepened the peaks on both sides of the canyon and cut them into upright cliffs to prevent demons from climbing up from both sides of the mountain, and then used spells to strengthen the entire mountain.
Don't underestimate this world, although most of the abilities are based on combat, these auxiliary spells are the same, but they are not as famous as combat spells.
The thirty-meter-high city wall is not high among all the gathering places, and I heard that in the lower world, in the same cold plain, the stronghold city wall there is at least fifty or sixty meters, because the monsters there are several times larger than here, and the strength is hundreds and thousands of times stronger.
This gathering point also has a city gate, but it is not opened, I heard Di say that it is generally not opened, only in special cases it is opened, and usually adventurers come to hang it from under the city wall.
There are many zombie corpses outside the tall city wall that have not had time to be burned, it is estimated that they wanted to impact the gathering point before and were killed by the fighters on the city wall, but they saw the corpse of the sinking demon, I heard that it is because the IQ of the sinking demon is relatively high, and generally does not gather a huge number of people will not attack the stronghold.
In other words, if you encounter a demonic attack, it will be a tough battle, and the entire gathering point is in danger of being breached.
This is not uncommon, and in a conversation with Di, I learned that a certain gathering point in the Black Wasteland farther away has been breached, and I heard that it was Bisu Hirosu who rushed out of the Taimo Heights with a huge demon army and breached this gathering point in one fell swoop.
That's right, it's the famous demon lord of Hirosu Bisu, who doesn't just stay in a certain place in the game.
According to the dwarven warrior, after breaking through that gathering point more than ten years ago, Bisu Hirosu established a huge demon fortress centered on the stronghold, and its power radiated to the entire black wasteland, completely cutting off the dark forest from the Taimo Heights for more than ten years, and only a few heroic professionals and powerful warriors had the ability to forcibly pass through the blockade of the demon fortress to learn the information of the Taimo Heights.
It is said that the Tymo Heights have now lost contact with the Rog Fortress, or that it has completely fallen from the Black Wasteland.
However, this is not something that worries Di, what worries him the most is the projection of the Purgatory Demon King Andariel, who has been entrenched in the depths of the monastery, which has not been cleared for more than ten years, God knows how much power she has accumulated, if she accumulates enough power one day, it is possible to mobilize a large number of demons to pose a threat to Rog's camp.
It's not that the Rog camp didn't organize a team to clean up, but the number of demons gathered there was too much, and the camp couldn't draw enough heroes for a while, and I heard that the camp had asked for powerful heroes from the lower world to solve this crisis.
Ye Qing suddenly felt that it was not the right time for him to come, if according to what Di said, it is estimated that there will be a big war in this world soon, a war involving the ups and downs of the entire world, and the strongest person who appears is the projection of the demon god, a million demons, which with their strength, it seems that they will not play any role, and they are estimated to die here if they are not careful.
If you don't guess wrong, this world alone is at least the difficulty of a silver-level dungeon, and if it is a lower level, that is, the nightmare world, the difficulty of a proper gold-level dungeon, not to mention the difficulty of hell, is definitely more terrifying.
To be honest, the silver-level difficulty has exceeded the limit of their team's coping, don't look at the last world, he even pitted two god incarnations, but that was the result of various coincidences, but if it was changed in this world, there could be no such coincidence.
The main reason is that there are too many demons, unlike the last world where Rose incarnated as a single lonely shadow, any powerful demon with a name and surname here must be surrounded by a group of younger brothers, like Bisu Bosu, there is a demon army around him, and he has no chance to achieve the results of the previous world.
Unless, well, unless his second heroic skill can be brewed in this world, there may be a chance.
The second hero skill was already brewing when the last world returned, but it hasn't been completed yet, so it's estimated that there will be a while to wait.
There is no problem in entering the stronghold, no one asks them where they come from, with the current situation in the dark world, it is estimated that as long as they are not demons, they can enter, but except for the apostate, that is, the demon traitor.
There are always some people in any world who have betrayed their own race and thrown themselves into the arms of demons for strength or some reasons, and gained power from the hands of demons, such people are called demon traitors, of course, in the mouths of people in this world, they are called apostates.
