Chapter 298: Soul Fall
Bang!
Just like in the real yĆ n, the powerful 'Last Judgment' played a huge role, dealing a heavy blow to the cursed dragon. The dragon, which had suffered no damage after withstanding the explosion of several ICBMs head-on, was broken through its hard scales by the 'Doomsday Judgment', and purple blood was scattered like rain, and Zhou Lu's blow was clearly successful.
After breaking through the dragon's defenses, the other combatants began to bombard the dragon's wounds in an indiscriminate manner. The dragon's defenses are staggering, and it's hard to see how much damage a normal attack can do to it; Now that it has been broken through by Zhou Lu's outer defense, others will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity.
In this way, the battle gradually entered the white heat. Zhou Lu's magic power was used up and he stayed on the other side to rest, while Qin Yue took Herelli and those sacrifices to join the battle. In reality, you can't see the monster's health bar, and the effect of vital attacks is much greater than some ordinary damage; After a few moments, the cursed dragon was a little overwhelmed. Its wounded wings and body were repeatedly hit, and the blood stained the desert below purple.
"O lowly human being."
A thunderous roar erupted from the dragon's mouth, and the cursed dragon flicked its wings, splashing yellow sand, and in the blink of an eye, it had already flown a distance of hundreds of meters. And Zhou Lu reacted - it turns out that this guy can speak human words? But time doesn't allow Zhou Lu to think about anything anymore; The cursed dragon that flew into the air unleashed a huge air flow with its wings, causing the people around it to retreat to the side. Before they could react, the dragon's next attack had arrived.
The sky gradually changed color, and a rain of purple fire pierced the sky. Fell to the ground. The frenzied storm of magic caused everyone to stagger. The desert below began to cavinate.
This is starting to go berserk, right?
Even if it's just from Hu Yu. After seeing the changes in heaven and earth, Zhou Lu also realized what was happening. The Cursed Dragon's berserk state has already begun, and this is said to be the most difficult boss scenario in the entire game, and no one can compete head-on. Only by practicing a lot, dodging all of the Cursed Dragon's attacks in advance, and finding a way to grind off the Cursed Dragon's remaining HP little by little in the process of dodging, can it be possible to achieve the final victory.
Looking at the apocalyptic situation around her, Zhou Lu couldn't help but take a deep breath. Undoubtedly, as a legendary monster capable of building countless worlds. The Cursed Dragon has terrifying powers befitting its identity; Between the heavens and the earth full of flames and lightning, these combatants present were a little unable to hold on. Zhou Lu saw with his own eyes that Lin Feng, who he had seen not long ago, was swallowed up by lightning and disappeared into midair.
But even so, I always feel that something is missing.
Of course, the strength of the cursed dragon is very strong, and its strength is definitely worthy of this title. By the time the battle had been fought, nearly half of the manpower had been reduced here; Even if he didn't see the corpses of these people, Zhou Lu didn't dare to take any chances. However, in comparison, the combat power exerted on the side of the earth. It's not the strongest, either.
Whether it is Vignia or these people in the exhibition, they all look like they are hanging out, and Zhou Lu has discovered this from the beginning. A lot of problems can be avoided with a little care. But no one took this battle seriously - although Zhou Lu is not experienced in a hundred battles so far, he still has general eyesight. With some coordination and organization, this battle could at least be a little easier. What the hell are they doing?
Zhou Lu was angry, and reminded a few times angrily in the contact channel; Because his own strength is not bad, and with Zhou Heng's brother, Zhou Lu has some prestige in the base; Hearing her words, the others began to get serious as well.
Not only did he slow down the frequency of attacks as Hu Yu said, but he also began to systematically avoid some of the cursed dragon's large-scale attacks. After a brief period of confusion, Hu Yu began to take over the command; Qin Yue and the others retreated from the front line, and it happened that Zhou Lu's magic power had almost recovered; After informing Hu Yu, who was in command in the contact channel, the others restrained Zhou Lu's dodge space for the cursed dragon; And Zhou Lu took advantage of the situation to fire the 'Doomsday Judgment' again, and hit the cursed dragon's chest with a single blow.
Hu Yu chattered through the channel, and the few remaining combatants dodged the cursed dragon's attacks while looking for an opportunity to start attacking its two wounds. The battle has finally become a little interesting; However, Zhou Lu had just breathed a sigh of relief, and the cursed dragon that had been hit hard suddenly rose again, with a huge mouth, and black mist shrouded from all directions; Gathered in its mouth, it began to condense into a small black ball.
"Be careful, the Cursed Dragon is about to release the 'Dimensional Storm'."
Hu Yu's prompt came from the contact, and Zhou Lu hurriedly called Qin Yue and the others, ready to retreat. Looking at the terrifying black mist that was getting thicker and thicker, and even began to condense into a pitch-black ball, Zhou Lu couldn't think of how to deal with this skill for a while. According to Hu Yu, this skill is a full-screen high-damage skill with no dead ends; The appearance of this skill means that the life of the cursed dragon is about to end, but how to safely survive the effective time of this skill is a very troublesome problem. According to Hu Yu, he himself was stuck in this skill at the beginning, and he failed to challenge the cursed dragon several times here.
"By the way, what's next?" Zhou Lu asked, "How should I deal with this skill?" ā
"I can't handle it, so I'm blessed......"
Zhou Lu was stunned for a moment, and it wasn't until he heard Qin Yue's voice of 'run' that he could be regarded as reacting. The people around them are scattering and fleeing, and this 'dimensional storm' is obviously not an ordinary skill. This kind of wide-area magic, there is hardly any way to deal with it; Either use your strength to carry it through, or you just run away.
After Zhou Lu reacted, he hurriedly followed. Zhou Lu flew relatively fast, and soon left the others behind. Qin Yue and the others gradually couldn't catch up with Zhou Lu's speed, Zhou Lu intended to wait for them together, but was pushed out by Qin Yue and asked her to go first; In desperation, Zhou Lu hurriedly began to run away at full speed. The shady curtain of the 'dimensional storm' is gradually approaching, and Qin Yue and the others are engulfed by the shady curtain one after another. Turned into white light and vanished; Zhou Lu's scalp tingled for a while. In a trance. was hit by a purple fire falling from the sky, affecting the speed of escape; By the time she reacted, the dark curtain was already in sight.
At the moment when she was engulfed in the shady, Zhou Lu herself was still a little incredulous; Is this the end of it? But the next moment, his body was enveloped by a white light.
The sky turned black and white, and now Zhou Lu is undoubtedly in the 'spiritual realm' that he just left. Qin Yue sat on a stool on the side and drank a drink, and Herelli lined up her chest and said something like "It was scary just now" to the priest next to her. Even Lin Feng, who was engulfed in lightning a moment ago. He also sat on the side and took a good time to deal with his wounds.
Zhou Lu looked back, and her brother came over and patted her on the shoulder-
"It's hard work."
Zhou Lu didn't react yet: "What's wrong?" It's ......"
"Of course, it's the Spirit Realm." Zhou Heng said, "I will bring you back to the spiritual realm if your life is in danger, didn't they sue you?" ā
"Huh?"
In the moment before she was engulfed in the shadows, Zhou Heng took her back to the spiritual realm and left the battlefield.
Was it just a false alarm? Looking at the people around them as they were accustomed to, a few of the fighters who were made up of the staff even listened to the music directly. And Zhou Lu finally figured out what was going on-
Before Zhou Lu's arrival, Zhou Heng himself would often participate in some daily battles; Although Zhou Heng rarely takes action in person, there are times when Zhou Heng is there. There will be no casualties - no matter how strong the enemy is, as long as Zhou Heng is present. There will be no danger.
Later, the research work became heavier and heavier, the manpower of the executive department gradually increased, and Zhou Heng himself no longer participated in the battle; However, Zhou Heng is an overly reliable teammate, and this 'attribute' is still remembered by everyone. And this battle of Jiao'er Langdang was led by this reason - although it was indeed a very important battle, but anyway, Zhou Heng was there in person, and he would not die or lose, and the others naturally had little motivation. But Zhou Lu, who joined later, didn't know about such a thing.
Most of the people on this side of the institute have heard or experienced this kind of rumor; Some of the non-staff had received such news from other people in the institute. Only Zhou Lu hadn't heard of it - Zhou Heng didn't know it himself, and others rarely talked about her brother in front of Zhou Lu, so in the end, Zhou Lu was the only one who was fighting seriously.
After knowing this, Zhou Lu grinned: "This is the last battle, why don't you let them be serious......"
"I won't lose anyway." Zhou Heng said, "Let you go up in advance, just to practice your hands." ā
āā¦ā¦ā
Since his brother said so, Zhou Lu had no choice but to stick out his tongue helplessly. And while he was talking, the 'dimensional storm' of the cursed dragon was about to end.
The darkness around them gradually faded, and the desert was restored to its former appearance. Most of the people couldn't resist the terrifying attack force of the 'Dimensional Storm', and with clusters of flickering white light, they were forcibly pulled back to the 'Spirit Domain' by Zhou Heng, but even so, there were still a few people who survived tenaciously. Including Zhong Youxin, Qian He, a high-ranking soldier from the National Security Bureau, and a fellow Arcane Mage of Lin Feng survived the attack of the 'Dimensional Storm' by luck, and immediately launched an attack on the Cursed Dragon. After using its last skills, this invincible dragon also lost the ability to continue fighting, and finally fell back into the desert in purple blood, and then turned into black mist and dissipated.
Looking at the battlefield on the other side of the Spirit Domain, the others around him began to cheer; Infected by their love, Zhou Lu also jumped up excitedly. However, Zhou Heng, who was standing next to her, did not express himself too excitedly, but asked:
"How does it feel?"
"It's finally over this time, isn't it? I felt a lot lighter all of a sudden. ā
"What else? For example, for the battle just now. ā
"The words of the battle just now...... Zhou Lu thought for a moment and said, "It feels easier than I imagined." ā
Zhou Heng teased: "Is it easy to die once?" ā
"No," Zhou Lu said, "although it's very powerful, it really doesn't look like what a powerful leader should be." ā
The Cursed Dragon was powerful, far stronger than any enemy Zhou Lu had dealt with before; Fang Cai's battle was very difficult, if it weren't for Zhou Heng who could make the people who had lost their ability to fight forcibly withdraw. Nine times out of ten, everyone present will die here. But even so. Zhou Lu also felt that it was a little too simple.
After all, it's time to deal with it. It's not a roadside dungeon boss, but the absolute leader of a huge force. After killing it like that, there is always the feeling of a punch on the cotton.
Zhou Heng said thoughtfully: "It's really strange. Neither took the opportunity to sneak attack, nor did his subordinates send reinforcements. If I hadn't 'seen' it in the game, I would have thought this guy was an impostor. ā
"yes." Zhou Lu nodded, "Those cultists are really calm, they actually watched us kill their leader like this. ā
Doubts are doubts, and the current battle is obviously over. The Cursed Dragon has been destroyed. Zhou Heng closed the 'Spirit Domain' and led everyone back to the post-war Sahara Desert. There was purple blood and scorch marks all over the ground, and the traces left by the battle just now were everywhere. Next, it's time to call the cultists and see what their expressions are; Just thinking like this, he saw the four of Venia gathered around the place where the cursed dragon fell from a distance, and when he saw Zhou Heng coming out, he hurriedly signaled for him to hurry over.
"What's going on?"
In a pool of purple blood, a shiny thing could be faintly seen floating on it. Lin Feng's companion was a little eager to see the thing in the blood, but was stopped by Venia. Seeing Zhou Heng coming, Qian He stretched out his hand. used magic power to suck the shiny thing through the air, and then handed it to Zhou Heng.
"After the cursed dragon was destroyed. We see this thing fall out of its body......"
The cursed dragon vanished into a black mist when it died, but when its body dissipated, a small object fell out of his corpse. Zhou Heng and the others who were in the spiritual realm didn't pay attention, but the Qian He people present saw this inexplicable little thing.
"It's ......"
Zhou Heng took this thing from Qian He's hands. It is a shiny triangular crystal with an amber texture; Probably because it was still soaked in dragon blood just now, and it still felt a little warm in my hand.
"It's dragon teeth or dragon blood or something, right?" Zhou Heng looked at it and said, "It can't be explosive equipment...... Right? ā
Halfway through speaking, Zhou Heng was stunned. It occurred to him what this little thing was.
"It's probably the spoils of the explosion." Qian He reminded, "Don't you think this thing is very similar to that?" ā
Zhou Lu, who followed behind, asked curiously, "Which one?" ā
"It's not on a chain, but it's already very similar." Zhou Heng had already reacted and nodded, "It's just the effect of this thing-"
Venia, who had been standing aside, was a little confused: "What is it?" ā
Zhou Heng threw the thing to Qian He next to him, and before he could answer, Zhou Lu on the side suddenly woke up: "It's the 'Soul Fall'!" ā
Soul Fall is one of the rewards for killing the Cursed Dragon in Wind Country.
The class system in "Wind Country" is very complex, in addition to the ordinary level and skill tree, special skills, proficiency, character drawing, and even the relationship with some special tasks are closely related to it; So although the demand from players in the game is very high, things that are commonplace in ordinary games, such as washing some water and changing job scrolls, have not appeared for a long time. In order to solve this problem, He Lei's original proposal was to add a special prop that would only drop by adding a high-level boss. This item adds a character selection screen, allowing players to freely switch between their own character and NPC teammates to fight.
The appearance of this prop itself is just a reward to increase the content of the game and find something to do for the top players who have defeated the top boss, and the person who dropped it is set as the cursed dragon, which is still Zhou Heng's own decision. At this stage, the most difficult boss in the game is the Cursed Dragon, and after successfully defeating the Cursed Dragon, obtaining this necklace can allow those top players to play other classes and give other players some space to catch up; But what he didn't expect was that now that Zhou Heng had defeated the cursed dragon, he had actually dropped such a thing.
Remember that the 'Soul Pendant' in the game is such an amber necklace, although there is no chain here, but the pendant itself is almost identical. The two technicians who rushed to hear the news immediately took out the computer they carried with them and opened the game; A group of people gathered around the computer to make a closer look, and sure enough, the strange triangular stone was exactly what it looked like in the game. Although the 'Soul Fall' in the game is just a pixel icon, it is obviously the same in terms of color and general shape.
"Could it really be ......" Zhou Heng thought for a while and asked Hu Yu next to him, "When you were in the other world, did you ever drop your equipment when you were fighting monsters?" ā
"It depends on how it falls. There will definitely be no direct drop of equipment, but some material items may appear," Hu Yu thought for a while and said, "Just like fighting wild boars can get wild boar, some things that will drop in the game can also be obtained by hunting monsters in the other world." ā
"Oh......" Zhou Heng said, looking around. In the battle just now, there were a lot of things that were dropped; Dragon's blood and dragon scales are all over the ground, these are normal drops from the Cursed Dragon; Compared to the dragon blood and dragon scales in the game, which only have one copy, the total drop in reality is much more luxurious. In addition to the dragon's blood and scales all over the ground, there were also some fragments of flesh that had fallen from there. It looks like it's no different from the game, so this little thing is very interesting.
"And what the hell is this thing?" Zhou Heng asked thoughtfully, "Can it really be used to change roles?" (To be continued......)
