Chapter 112: Searching for the Sword: The Lion King Bat King
"What's this?" Ten Thousand Swords'? ”
As soon as the Bat King and the Lion King entered the game, they saw the dark sword placed beside them. There is a sign with the name of the sword written on it, and although the sword body is unpretentious, judging from the surrounding arrangement, this sword seems to be quite a remarkable thing.
Both of them belong to the "Dragon Slayer" guild and are considered middle-level personnel in the guild. This time, the guild arranged for them to challenge the game in pairs, which already made them feel a little unhappy. Because these two are usually competitors to each other, they have been unpleasant to each other for a long time, and they have mutual grievances with each other, and they have accumulated considerable contradictions so far, which is no secret in the guild. And this time, the director arranged for the two of them to enter the game together, probably out of this consideration, and wanted to let them solve the problem by themselves. The supervisor probably thinks that when it really comes to life and death, even people who are usually at odds have to work together to get through the difficulties. The survival points of these two people were originally considered to be a slightly generous nine points, so they could not die, and the mortgage points of this game were exactly nine points.
So, this time they really entered a life-and-death situation.
The game seems to be deliberately trying to 'provoke' their conflicts, and the two of them are in the same room when they first enter the game, and in this room, the system provides them with only one "good" level weapon.
Name: Ten Thousand Swords
Grade: Excellent
Genre: Fighting (Drama)
Equipment Requirements: None
Attack: Weak (Blade); Normal or Strong (Concealed Weapon)
Special effects: Built-in traps, which can 'shoot' a variety of hidden weapons.
Description: The one-handed greatsword with a dark appearance is one of the seven most proud works of a generation of swordsmith Xiaoyaozi. The blade is rough and the blade is unfavorable, and it seems that the attack power is weak, but in fact, the thick sword body and hilt hide a variety of hidden weapons, which can be activated by slashing at a specific move or touching a mechanism. Although it is a sword, it can make all kinds of attacks at the same time, and the hidden weapon comes and goes like the wind, and there is no trace, which is the origin of the name of "Ten Thousand Swords and Shadows".
And at the same time as the two of them took their eyes off the sword at the same time and fell on each other's faces, two consecutive prompts from the system rang in their ears.
The special rule has been triggered, and other player profiles cannot be viewed in this game.
Special rules have been triggered, and in this game, players can fight each other.
Before the two could say anything, the system's chime continued to sound like a cannon.
Game Name: Sword Quest, Level: 5 of Spades, Number of Players: 7
The goal of the game: to unlock the secrets of Excalibur.
Special Bonus: Players who hold the "Excalibur" at the time of clearing the game can take an item marked as "Story" out of the game and erase the corresponding "Story" limit.
The two looked at each other, and each other's faces were complicated but they were trying to pretend that they didn't think about anything. The system's series of hints is really not obvious, first throw the two of them into a room, give them an artifact for them to grab, and kindly tell them that "players can fight each other in this game". Then, as if the reason for the battle between them was not enough, the system directly told them the game objectives and special rewards, especially the latter "special reward", although the two have played the game many times, but it is the first time that they have encountered a situation where the special reward content is directly informed in the form of a system prompt.
In short, this is quite straightforward. You can fight now to grab this "excellent" level weapon, or you can consider temporarily cooperating until you clear the level, and at that time you can fight each other in order to grab the "Excalibur", that is, the qualification to bring back the high-level weapon. Especially with the relationship between these two people, even if they know that it is a trap, they will definitely not hesitate to step into it. After all, if you want to settle all grievances at once, there is no more convenient time than this.
The two stood vigilantly facing each other, their bodies looking relaxed, but the arms and feet hidden under their clothes were tense and did not dare to slack off. After a few seconds of stalemate, it was the Bat King who broke the silence first.
"Well, Brother Lion, I have a proposal. There are seven players in total, and there are five more in addition to us, so there may be no shortage of hard hands. "I know it's all, but at least until the game is played, we can work together for the time being, or at least don't kill each other." ”
The Lion King nodded. In fact, he wanted to say this, but he didn't say it for the sake of face. Now that the Bat King himself has taken the initiative, it can be regarded as the right one. The Lion King said: "I completely agree, we can wait until we have cleared the customs before discussing it." This time, the game mortgage points just deducted the survival points of you and me, which is too dangerous, and there is really no need to bet your name here. ”
The Bat King smiled and said, "Totally agree, it seems that we have reached at least the most basic consensus." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and for a while this small room was filled with a warm atmosphere of 'fine' cooperation. However, the two men were smiling on their faces, and they were all thinking exactly the same words:
(Hmph, I'll kill you when the Excalibur is almost in hand!) )
The two laughed for a while, and the lion king said: "Although the goal of the game has been given, I have no clue what 'Excalibur' is and where it is. Brother Bat King, did you think of any clues? ”
The Bat King picked up a post from the table, looked at it for a while, and then handed it to the Lion King: "I think this post should be a hint." ”
The lion king took it and took a look, and it was written with the following sentence: "On the third day of the third month of March, Yuelai Inn, the seven swords converged, and the divine sword was unearthed." "The following is also a map to the inn, which can be described as attentive.
The two speculated that the "Ten Thousand Swords Shadow" here should be one of the "Seven Swords" mentioned in the post, the so-called Seven Swords Convergence, Excalibur Unearthed, it should be said that the collection of specific seven swords, you can find the "Excalibur" mentioned in the game goal. And this post is a hint of the game, which will be sent to everyone who holds one of the "Seven Swords", and gather them at the Yuelai Inn to start a battle to grab the Seven Swords. Unbeknownst to them at this time, their side was actually in a good position at the beginning of the battle, and among all the players, they were the only ones who held one of the seven swords and received a post alerting the target, which can be described as both equipment and intelligence. In fact, the main reason is that the two of them act together, and the system generally gives the player a chance to get the sword (such as Wei Simeng), or directly prompts the post for the next action (such as Amano), and the Bat King and the Lion King appear in the same place, and the system generously releases the sword and the post.
Of course, there are still players like Lu Yu who have neither a sword nor a post, and only a bare game goal, but that's a digression, so I won't show it for the time being.
Straight to the point. After the discussion was decided, the two took the Yuelai Inn as the goal and walked together. Regarding the "excellent" level weapon, the Bat King took the initiative to give it to the other party on the grounds that the Lion King was larger and more suitable for wielding a great sword, as a sign of his sincerity in cooperation. The Lion King was also very satisfied with this, and took the initiative to agree that if he encountered an enemy, he would fight the enemy head-on, while the Bat King could sweep the formation from the side and decide his own strategy, which was regarded as showing equal sincerity.
The two of them rushed for a day, and finally entered the town at night, but at this time, they met Wu Yuanzi and his party who were about to escape. The Bat King was sharp-eyed, and he was surprised to see the sword shape in Wu Yuanzi's hand, suspecting that it was one of the "Seven Swords" mentioned in the post, and the two discussed it, and the Lion King intercepted the group from the front, while the Bat King waited for the opportunity to sneak attack from the side, killing people and snatching the sword.
So, the scene at the end of the previous chapter appeared.
