Chapter 258: Exploring the Mysterious City
Although Cheng Yang was in a hurry to set off for Wucheng, it was almost dark now, and Cheng Yang was going to practice in Luofeng Town for a night and wait until tomorrow before setting off.
Now Cheng Yang is quite contradictory, if he wants to improve his personal strength, he is undoubtedly the fastest to stay in the territory, and the effect of the Nirvana Divine Stone is not something that can be compensated for with a little more spiritual energy. But there are many things in the territory that he needs to complete, and if he stays in the territory all the time, it will be very detrimental to the development of the entire territory.
As far as the previous events are concerned, if he hadn't set off for the Xiaocheng area, it would have been impossible for the tentacles of Luofeng Town's territory to reach Xiaocheng City, which would definitely put Luofeng's territory into a strategic disadvantage in the future.
At the same time, if Cheng Yang does not go to the Wucheng area in the future, in addition to not being able to rescue Liu Xiyue's parents back to the territory of Luofeng Town in a short time, it will also make Luofeng Town's sphere of influence unable to extend to the Wucheng area.
Wucheng City is no better than other main city areas, they have huge human resources, and even the strength and density of the surrounding demonic beasts are higher than other places, as long as the Wucheng forces are given some time, they will inevitably develop the Wucheng City area into an iron bucket, and when Cheng Yang wants to intervene, it will be much more difficult.
Therefore, Cheng Yang also had to take this trip.
Early the next morning, Cheng Yang went to the mission hall, since he was going to Wucheng, there was a task that could be done by the way.
This is also a special quest, and the reward items are secondary, just a piece of silver-level equipment of the class, and the equipment type can be selected. For others at the moment. A piece of silver-level equipment is definitely very precious, but for Cheng Yang, silver-level equipment is just a big road. There are not five hundred pieces of silver-level equipment in the entire territory of Luofeng Town, but also three hundred.
Cheng Yang values the mercenary point reward for this special task.
The mercenary points awarded for general special missions are only about 10,000 points. Compared with other tasks, the task of 10,000 points is definitely a very large number, after all, under normal circumstances, the mercenary task is only a few points of mercenary points. As far as Cheng Yang is concerned, he has always paid more attention to completing mercenary tasks, but in addition to obtaining 10,000 mercenary points when completing the first mercenary task, the mercenary points earned in the following month add up to less than 2,000 points, and the gap is not ordinarily large.
And now. The points rewarded for this mercenary mission reached 30,000 points, Cheng Yang estimated. After completing this task, your mercenary level will officially reach the middle of the D rank. By then, I'm guessing I'll be in time for another mission. Cheng Yang hopes in his heart that this qiē can be very smooth, because this is the only way. in order to further widen the gap between their own strength and others. Otherwise, other large forces will soon narrow this gap by virtue of their numerical superiority, and in the end, every step of Cheng Yang's expansion will become very difficult.
Cheng Yang opened the task list, and sure enough, he found three special tasks hanging at the top.
One of them was to capture the orc cottage, and Cheng Yang didn't even look at this task, because at this stage, this task is difficult to complete. Even with Luofeng Town's current strength, it can be completed. The final loss will also be very large, and Cheng Yang doesn't want to have too much power consumption in this matter for the time being.
The second quest is also a large copy of the previous zài, called Clear Hell difficulty. This reward is very eye-catching. It is clearly written that it will reward an upgradeable piece of equipment.
What is upgradable equipment? Cheng Yang knew better than anyone that his Ice and Snow Sigh had given him the best of his life, and his 20% attack damage bonus was enough to be proud of all the equipment on his body. And what this upgradeable equipment is, Cheng Yang is not very clear. In the previous life, people didn't even succeed in clearing the small dungeons of Hell difficulty, not to mention the large dungeons of Hell difficulty.
This task is also not something that Cheng Yang can accomplish at this stage. So he just threw it aside.
The third quest is a new one, which is actually not new. It's just that it came late relative to the other two tasks. The last time Cheng Yang completed the special task of counterattacking the weak, the original task disappeared from the list, and according to the rules for the appearance of special tasks, this task immediately appeared in the task list.
Explore the Mysterious City: Special Quest, at the beginning of the apocalypse, a mysterious underground entrance appeared near all provincial main cities, it is said that this underground entrance leads to the mysterious dungeon, please explore the dungeon, and bring back the Ten Thousand Demon Grass that grows in the central square of the dungeon. Rewards: 30,000 mercenary (military) points, one piece of gold-level equipment of the profession (optional).
Cheng Yang didn't think about it, so he took over the task directly.
This task has been taken over by someone in the previous life, but no one has been able to complete it. The biggest difficulty is not getting to the underground entrance, but not being able to move safely through the dungeon.
The underground entrance mentioned in the mission description is near the provincial main city, but it is actually worth scrutinizing. Not to mention other provincial-level main cities, the underground entrance of Wucheng City is seventy or eighty kilometers away from the main city, which can no longer be regarded as the surrounding area of the main city.
Although there are already many powerful demonic beasts at this distance, it does not affect the thirst of the fighters to complete special tasks.
At that time, the people who accepted this task were all fighters in the main cities of various provinces, and many of them were strong and powerful, and even in about a year after the end of the day, there were also junior sergeant fighters who accepted this task. So these people didn't get much of a hindrance and found this underground entrance.
But in the end, without exception, all of them failed. The cost of defeat was terrible, and they all died in the dungeon.
No, Cheng Yang didn't have too much to worry about, the heaviest result of this task was to pick the Ten Thousand Demon Grass, whether this Ten Thousand Demon Grass was precious or not Cheng Yang didn't know, but it was certain that this thing would only be stored in the dungeon.
As long as Cheng Yang can take Tan Chao to the entrance of the dungeon and let the other party enter the dungeon smoothly, he will basically be able to complete this task smoothly. Moreover, even if this task cannot be completed smoothly, Tan Chao can also return with the help of Huicheng Shishun.
Therefore, after Cheng Yang took over this task, he immediately asked people to call Tan Chao over. But when Tan Chao came, Liu Xiyue also came with him.
"Lord, I want to go to Wucheng City with you." Liu Xiyue said very simply, the expression on her face was also very calm, as if the ambiguity of yesterday had disappeared from her. However, only she knows that this is just hiding her inner emotions deeper.
Liu Xiyue knows very well that in this cruel apocalypse, no one will like a vase, even if it is a national treasure-level vase, in the troubled times, except for being reduced to an ornamental plaything, no one will pay much attention to it. If you want to make yourself more susceptible, you have to make yourself more capable and stronger.
Cheng Yang looked at Liu Xiyue and finally agreed to her request.
Cheng Yang only brought Liu Xiyue and Tan Chao this time, and Chu Qiang's father and daughter, who were members of the same guard, continued to stay in Luofeng Town to make sealing magic beads, so as to bring higher economic benefits to Luofeng Town. Of course, Cheng Yang didn't forget to let Chu Lingling step up to improve her strength. After all, only when its strength is stronger, can it seal a more powerful demonic beast, so that the sealing magic bead can be sold for a better price.
Now although Liu Xiyue is still only at the peak of her apprentice-level strength, her attack power has been increased to a certain extent, and with her current attack power, it is not a problem at all to use the Holy Word Skill to kill the second-order early demonic beast in seconds.
As for Tan Chao, although he joined the territory of Luofeng Town relatively late, because he had a relatively high www.biquge.info from the beginning, and because he had obtained Cheng Yang's weapon because of his special skills, he had spent a lot of time using the Nirvana Divine Stone for cultivation, so he had already reached the strength of a high-level apprentice, and he was not so far away from advancing to the peak.
Don't look at Tan Chao as a master in the territory of Luofeng Town, but in the world, he is definitely the small group of people in front.
Of course, there are few people in this group who have Xiaobai, a powerful pet/thing, and with it supporting Tan Chao, who is slower, the time for Cheng Yang and others to hurry is much shortened.
This also made Tan Chao a little ashamed, even a weak woman like Liu Xiyue could rush by herself, but he had to rely on pets/things to catch up with the other party. Fortunately, Liu Xiyue's image of a weak woman is only on the surface, if she really wants to fight, he is definitely the target of being killed by the other party in seconds, which Tan Chao knows very well. Although he didn't know where Liu Xiyue was so powerful, he occasionally saw Liu Xiyue make moves, almost all of them killed the enemy with one move, and he didn't even see how Liu Xiyue did it.
It took more than eight hours for the three of them to rush from Luofeng Town to Tianning Village, which was a distance of more than 200 kilometers after all, and it was not something that could be run over in an instant.
Although it was only a day apart, Tianning Village has now been upgraded to Level 3, and several Level 3 houses and all the necessary buildings for Level 3 villages have been built. However, the professional statue in Tianning Village has not yet been upgraded to level 4, so the number of fighters that can be accommodated is still limited.
But even so, Tianning Village is definitely the number one station in the entire Xiaocheng area, and as for the other two occupied villages, it remains to be seen whether or not to upgrade the professional statue to level 2 now.
The development of Tianning Village naturally could not be concealed from Song Zhao and Lin Xiang, although they were very anxious about this, but they could not come up with a better way to develop the territory, let alone think of a strategy to restrict the development of Tianning Village.
Sometimes they even want to take the initiative to bow their heads to the territory of Luofeng Town to show weakness, and then take some methods from it on how to quickly obtain the territory's psionic value. In their opinion, there was definitely a shortcut to earning psionic energy in the territory, otherwise how could Tianning Village develop so quickly?
However, ideas are ideas, and if they really want to do this, they can't let go of their own face, and at the same time, they can't let go of their own interests. (To be continued)
