Chapter 123: Sub-Artifact Ring
The group soon found an NPC named Old Woodcutter in front of one of the cabins.
Old woodcutter?A few people thought it was a little strange when they saw it, this NPC doesn't even have a real name, will there be a mission, or is this a field copy without a mission?
The old woodcutter who was chopping wood heard the footsteps, looked at the sound with a little wooden eyes, and saw that it was a few adventurers, Gujing Wubo's eyes showed a trace of excitement, but after looking at it a few more times, his eyes suddenly showed a trace of disappointment, and then continued to bow his head and chop firewood.
"This NPC is weird!" Xiao Hua followed six or seven meters behind a few people, saw the old woodcutter's reaction, and said to himself in his heart.
Feng Wuxian and the others naturally would not miss such an obvious change in the old woodcutter, and they also felt strange in their hearts, but they didn't know why, so they could only look at the situation first.
"I'll go over and ask and see. ”
Feng Wuxian said in the group, and then stepped forward: "Mr. Old Woodcutter, is there anything we need help with?"
The old woodcutter, as if he was deaf and had not heard the question, paid no attention to the question, and just lowered his head and chopped his firewood.
Several people looked at each other, and Feng Wuxian continued to ask, "Mr. Old Woodcutter, is there anything we need help with?"
The old woodcutter finally raised his head this time, looked at several people expressionlessly and said, "Yes, but this thing is very dangerous for you!"
"We're not afraid of danger!" "Feng Wuxian is happy, there is no NPC who did not say that it is not dangerous before giving the task, these are just NPCs' polite words, whether it is real danger or fake danger, naturally you have to take the task to know.
"Well, since you insist on this, be prepared to die. The old woodcutter said helplessly: "There is a big lake not far ahead, and there is a wicked Jiao in the lake that has become a fine talker, and I accidentally dropped a silver ring given to me by my late wife by the lake a long time ago, and was picked up by the evil Jiao. I had sinned against that evil dragon before it became a sperm, and if I went, not only would it not return it to me, but I am afraid it would take the opportunity to swallow me in one bite!
If you go directly to it, it will definitely get angry because it is disturbed, but it likes to eat a white translucent gem fish, which can be caught with advanced fishing skills in the small river not far from my house, and I can provide you with fishing tackle, and you can go to find it if you have caught more than ten ordinary gem fish, at least to ensure that it will not anger you because it is disturbed.
But even if there is a jewel fish, you have to be careful, that evil Jiao will turn his face at any time and deny people, once you do something to make him unhappy, you are afraid that you will be poisoned by it immediately!"
Finally, the old woodcutter admonished in a warning tone.
System Hint: You have accepted the quest "Ring in the Lake"!
Rings in the Lake: The ring given to the old woodcutter by the old woodcutter fell into the lake, please help the old woodcutter get it back from the evil Jiao!
Difficulty: Grade C!
"None of you have advanced fishing skills, but mine is only beginner. Feng Wuxian listened to the introduction of the mission and hurriedly said in the team.
The difficulty of the task is not high, but looking at the appearance of the old woodcutter, it seems that he is not worried about the strength of several people, and I am afraid that after completing this task, there will be a task with higher rewards!
And when they remembered the description of the surname of the turquoise prismatic gem key used to open the copy, several people were convinced of this.
This woodcutter is obviously a one-way surname NPC, and Xiao Hua can hear what he said clearly, but he is too far away, and he is not in the same team as Feng Wuxi, so naturally he can't receive the task, but just from the content of the task he heard, this is not a difficult task, and the reward for the task is not high, so Xiao Hua decided to continue watching on the side.
"My fishing skills are advanced. The four men in the team had not used their fishing skills much, but at this time, the pastor Xiao Ai said in time, which made several people breathe a sigh of relief.
After taking the fishing tackle from the old woodcutter, the five of them walked to the right side of the wooden house.
After Xiao Hua and a few others walked away, he summoned the illusion out and sneaked over, and then walked to the old woodcutter himself and talked to the old woodcutter.
The content of the old woodcutter's speech was the same as what he had heard before, Xiao Hua took the task without much thought, took the fishing tackle from the old woodcutter, and then controlled the character, going in a different direction from the wind without a trace, he wanted to find a riverside that Feng Wuji and others could not see, and catch the fish first.
While walking, Xiao Hua shifted his consciousness to the illusion from time to time, observing the situation there.
Feng Wuxian and several people soon went to a crystal clear one-meter-deep river, through the clear water, they could clearly see the translucent gem fish under the water of the river, but there were various colors of gemstone patterns on the body of the palm-sized gem fish.
Seeing this, Xiao Ai sat down by the river and started fishing.
"Without a trace, I'm not used to this wild dungeon, and I always feel that this dungeon is dangerous. The remaining four people sat aside, and the fire mage said with a frown.
"Wealth is in danger, if you want to get good equipment and good things, where is there a reason why it is not dangerous! I saw that gem saying that this copy is dangerous, and I don't care too much. But the old man didn't seem to take us seriously, and even gave the task the easiest thing to do, it seems that the danger level is much greater than we thought before, this copy is called the Lost Forest, and we haven't even seen the shadow of the Lost Forest yet. Feng Wuxian nodded in agreement, but where in the world is there such a good thing as easy and easy to pay and good, on the contrary, the more dangerous it is, the higher the reward they can get this time!
As soon as he thought of this, Feng Wuxian couldn't help but stroke the Sky Splitting Bow in his hand, and his heart was hot.
"There's a fish on the hook!" Xiao Ai said happily as she retracted her fishing rod at this time.
System Hint: You have obtained a "Bad Quality Gem Fish"!
"It's useless, you want to be ordinary, keep working hard, Xiao Ai!" Feng Wuxian saw it, smiled and said encouragingly.
Xiao Ai nodded and continued to catch fish.
After Xiao Hua saw the movements of several people clearly through the illusion, he moved the illusion to a distant place to hide, and his figure also stopped on the edge of a relatively distant river.
"Fishing, I don't know what kind of gem fish can be caught by grandmaster-level fishing! Take some high-grade fish and bribe that evil Jiao, I don't know if there is any benefit?" Xiao Hua touched his chin, thinking a little excitedly in his heart, and then sat on the edge of the river to catch a fish.
Sitting by the river for a while, looking at the crystal clear river water, under the strong sunlight on his head, Xiao Hua couldn't help but take off his shoes and soak his feet in the river water, and then a cool and refreshing feeling surged up from under his feet.
This side is ready, Xiao Hua did not relax the monitoring of the five people on the side of the illusion, and from time to time switched his intention to return to the illusion to observe the situation, but saw that except for the priest who was fishing with his head down, the other four people were just a strong Kan Dashan, and there was no movement.
Well, there's a fish on the hook! Grandmaster-level fishing is easy to use!
Feeling the fishing rod move, Xiao Hua immediately pulled it, and then he caught a fish with a silver glow!
System Hint: You've earned the "Perfect Gem Fish King"!
The Perfect Gem Fish King: A very rare fish, it is the perfect king of gem fish, according to the level of cooking, it can make different grades of food that continues to restore life and mana, and the shelf life is one day!
It turned out to be the king of jewel fish, this fish was taken to the evil Jiao, maybe it could really be exchanged for some good things!
The more Xiao Hua thought about it, the more he felt that there was this possibility, if it was simply for the task to set up the gem fish, then only ordinary gem fish would be needed, and the fish with a one-day shelf life would not have much practical value in fact, and you must know that the cooked food also has a shelf life.
In the next half hour, Xiao Hua caught exquisite gem fish one after another, excellent gem fish, rare gem fish, ordinary gem fish and so on.
System Hint: You've earned the "Perfect Gem Fish King"!
caught another gem fish king, Xiao Hua was overjoyed. After throwing the Jewel Fish King into his backpack, Xiao Hua's consciousness shifted to the illusion, and he found that the priest had left the river and several people had regrouped.
"Ten ordinary gem fish, you've finally caught enough, damn it!" said the warrior with a little dissatisfaction. He really wanted to go around to investigate, but Feng Wuxian was strongly opposed, after all, this copy hadn't even seen the real main scene, and now to go separately to investigate, it would either be useless, or it would be extremely stupid and dangerous, they really couldn't afford to lose any more people, if Xiao Ai was left fishing by the river and had an accident, then it would be almost difficult for them to have any hope for this trip to the dungeon.
"Is it this gem fish?" To be on the safe side, several people returned to the old woodcutter and handed the gem fish to the old woodcutter for confirmation.
The old woodcutter nodded, then pointed in the direction ahead and said, "Keep going, you will come across a big lake, pick a stone by the lake and throw it into the lake, the evil dragon will come out, you must hand over the gem fish as soon as possible, otherwise you will die!" the old woodcutter said again with a warning tone.
Following the direction pointed by the old woodcutter, Feng walked forward without a trace. Xiao Hua continued to let the characters fish by the river, and let the illusion follow.
After a while, the illusion followed Feng Wuji and the others to a huge sky-blue lake, the surface of the lake was sparkling and scaly, very calm, and even a few small fish jumped out of the lake from time to time, and the water droplets sprinkled from the fish reflected a little colorful light in the sun.
According to the old woodcutter, Feng Wuxian picked up a small rock by the lake and threw it straight into the calm lake.
There was a crisp sound of water, and Feng Wuxian immediately prepared to take out the gem fish in his backpack as if he were facing a great enemy.
After the sound of the water, the lake quickly returned to calm, and there was no response!
Several people looked at each other again, and when Feng Wuxian was about to throw another stone into it, there was a loud noise on the surface of the lake at this time, and a "snake" seven or eight meters high with a body as thick as a bucket appeared in front of several people!
It is said that it is a snake, because except for the part above the neck that is covered with a layer of black scales, the rest of the body parts are still the same as the snake, and it is obviously not fully evolved into a dragon.
"Who is throwing things in my territory and disturbing my rest!" said the evil Jiao with a hideous face, a bloody mouth, revealing fangs that shone with sharp light, and a very unkind tone.
Not only Feng Wuxian, but even Xiao Hua, who had attached his consciousness to the illusion, was taken aback by this sudden change! Seeing that the evil Jiao was about to attack, Feng Wuxian hurriedly handed over ten gem fish, and said very respectfully: "Dear Lord Jiaolong, we didn't mean to disturb your rest, this is a gift we have prepared for you. ”
Feng Wuxian is obviously also a person who is very involved in the game, and at this time, he said these words without even thinking about it.
Evil Jiao looked at the ten transparent gem fish that were glowing slightly in the sun, bent down, opened his big mouth, and swallowed the gem fish directly from Feng Wuji's hands.
Facing the bloody mouth of the evil Jiao at such a close distance, no matter how bold Feng Wuxian and the others are, they can't help but be afraid in their hearts, if this evil Jiao turns his face and doesn't recognize people, and takes the opportunity to swallow them in one gulp, how can it be good!
Evil Jiao was not such a scoundrel, and after swallowing the gem fish, he said unsatisfactorily: "Not bad, but it's a pity that it's a little less." Tell me, what's the matter with you coming to me?"
"That's right, when we passed by the lake, we accidentally dropped a ring by the lake, I wonder if Lord Jiaolong can return it to us?"
"Ring, wait, it looks like I've really picked it up. ”
"Is this the ring?" the bright red tongue in the big mouth of the evil Jiao suddenly stretched out, and a golden ring appeared on the tongue.
Phantom Ring (Secondary Artifact): A superb ring that can greatly increase your character's attack speed, movement speed, and spell casting speed!
Caste: Physical Attack +100, Magic Attack +120, Level 40 can be equipped, equipment binding!
Constitution +30 Strength +30 Agility +50 Wisdom +30 Spirit +30 Effect: It can greatly increase the character's attack speed, movement speed, and spell casting speed!
Additional Skill: Extreme Force!
Extreme Force: If the character is a physics class, instantly increase the current character's attack speed and movement speed by 100% for 10 seconds, and if the character is a magic class, you can cast five non-forbidden spell level spells in a row for 10 seconds! Cooldown time is 120 minutes!
When the golden ring was displayed in front of everyone's eyes, the surname of the golden ring also appeared in front of everyone's eyes! Feng Wuxian and several people looked at the phantom ring of this sub-artifact in amazement, and there were earth-shattering waves in their hearts!
"Sub-artifact! Take this ring in your hand, and then use extreme force, PK is simply invincible!" the warrior looked at the Phantom Ring with envy and muttered in the ranks.
Several people were silent when they heard this, their hearts were beating violently, if anyone was not moved when he saw this thing, then he was simply not human!
His sister, you must get this ring!
The surname of the ring is projected in the air like a magic screen, Xiao Hua also saw the surname of the phantom ring through the illusion, and his heart that he didn't care much about it immediately ignited! Once this ring is equipped, Xiao Hua feels that he will no longer have any fear even in the face of a melee profession ten levels higher than him in the future! And the infinite stacking poison will really play a role, and his output will get a qualitative leap!
"How big is the possibility that we can kill this evil Jiao?" Feng Wuxian licked his lips that had become dry from excitement at this time, and finally couldn't help but say in the team.
"Don't be fooled, this evil Jiao is to lure us into being fooled, have you forgotten the fable of "Golden Axe", this evil Jiao is definitely not something we can kill!" Xiao Ai said hurriedly, this is the system is clearly luring them to be fooled, where is the secondary artifact ring so easy, how can the monsters that can fall out of the secondary artifact equipment give them an unmanned team to kill?
"But this is a wild copy, since it has appeared, and only six people can come in, there should be a way to kill it. Feng Wuxian still said without giving up.
"The wind is traceless, wake up!" Xiao Ai saw it and shouted fiercely in the team. Feng Wuxian is the captain, if even he has a crooked thought, this copy will definitely fail here, and death is completely possible!
"Forget it, who's going to refuse it. Being drunk like this by Xiao Ai, Feng Wuxian smiled bitterly, and said helplessly, he also knew that it was almost impossible to kill this huge evil dragon, but let him refuse, he couldn't do it, it was too painful!
"I'll go!" The rest of the people were still hesitating in pain, but Xiao Ai stepped forward and said to the evil Jiao, "Dear Lord Jiaolong, our ring is not this, but a silver ring. ”
"Silver ring, let me look for it. Evil Jiao thought for a moment, and his tongue reached back into his mouth with the phantom ring.
After the phantom ring disappeared, the surname of the ring also disappeared, and Feng Wuxian and the others saw a loss in their hearts, this is a secondary artifact! They are all seeing a secondary artifact for the first time, but they can only watch a secondary artifact disappear from their eyes like this, how can they not be heartbroken?
"When the rest of the land is cleared, if the harvest is not too big, let's come back and try this guy's strength!" Feng Wuxian said fiercely in the team, just letting go of a sub-artifact, it is impossible to say anything!
Feng Wuxian won the approval of several people in the team, Xiao Ai saw it, and could only helplessly keep silent, these people really didn't die in the heart of the Yellow River!
"Is this it?" Evil Jiao stretched out his tongue at this time, and another ring appeared on it, this time it was undoubtedly a silver ring.
Silver Ring: A ring that I don't know who lost it in the lake!
"Yes, that's it!" Xiao Ai nodded affirmatively after looking at the surname of the silver ring.
"Are you sure?" asked the Evil Jiao's lantern-like black eyes as he reconfirmed.
"Sure!" Xiao Ai nodded affirmatively again.
"How can this be reasonable! I picked up this ring more than ten years ago, how could it be that you lost it! Dare to deceive me, you are looking for death!" Xiao Ai affirmed at the same time, Evil Jiao suddenly said angrily, and then bowed his head violently, opened his bloody mouth, and swallowed Xiao Ai in one gulp!
Through the illusion, Xiao Hua couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at this incomparably sudden scene! This is really too dramatic!
"Little Love!" When Evil Jiao was furious, Feng Wuxian felt bad, but he never imagined that Evil Jiao would immediately turn his face and not recognize people, and directly killed Xiao Ai in seconds!
"You bastard!" Wind Traceless shot an arrow!
—55!
Feng Wuxian held a level 45 dark gold weapon in his hand, and his attack was extremely high, but with one arrow, he only pitifully shot down the evil Jiao's 55 HP!
"Roar, you are looking for death!" said the evil Jiao as he was attacked.
"Traceless, retreat first!" The warrior's face changed, and he immediately pulled the wind without a trace and retreated sharply!
The huge tail of the evil Jiao swept up from the water at this time, if it wasn't for the early opportunity to pull a few people back, this sweep down, I'm afraid everyone will have to explain here!
And Xiao Hua was far away from Xiao Ai as early as after Xiao Ai was swallowed, and watched the play sweetly. Their pastor died in such a dramatic way, there is really nothing happier than this, Xiao Hua is so happy that he wants to sing a little song!
"Hey, how can I be so gloating, people swallow it alive, so the little girl who is so spiritual, how would it be if she left a psychological shadow in the future? Hehe, haha, how can I feel so happy, I have to reflect!
The evil Jiao didn't seem to be able to leave the lake, and roared as the few people walked farther and farther away.
"There's something wrong with that old woodcutter!" The group walked out of a distance, Feng Wuxian had calmed down, and after combing things from beginning to end, they felt that there was no problem with the performance of the evil Jiao, and there was no problem with their behavior, the only problem was the old woodcutter who issued the task!
"I warned you a long time ago, don't do anything to provoke them, you must have done something that disgusts it!" the old woodcutter said coldly, looking at the remaining four.
"How is it possible, we did what you told us to do!" Feng Wuxian suppressed his anger and told the old woodcutter about the process of contact with the evil dragon.
"This is your mistake, if you can tell the evil Jiao in advance about the shape of the ring and what patterns are engraved on it, even if the evil Jiao suspects that the ring is not yours, you can also say that it is your friend's, and I think that the evil Jiao can't help but give you the ring after receiving the gem fish. The old woodcutter sighed.
"This is your ring, if you don't tell us, how will we know!" said Feng Wuxian angrily!
"Why should I tell you? Didn't the people who told you how to enter this place tell you that this place is very dangerous, and that people of great strength must not enter it easily? With your strength, you will not be able to break through the cursed forest of traces in front of you! I see that your strength is not strong, if you are careful enough, you may still be able to break through the Lost Forest, so I gave you such a simple task to test you, but you didn't even ask these details clearly, and ran over to contact the evil Jiao, who is to blame? I did this for your own good, rather than die in the Lost Forest, it is better to die outside!" said the old woodcutter coldly.
Is death in the Lost Forest a double punishment?
Xiao Hua couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard it!
............ The second update!
