Chapter 8: The Phantom in White
Stone wilderness.
Shen Yi was comforting Zhou Yiyu: "Okay, don't be depressed, it's not growing again." ”
Zhou Yiyu frowned: "It's not the original." ”
"It's all flesh grown on your own body, so why do you mind? Shen Yi comforted him.
"You said it lightly, I don't know if it's good or not. Besides, even if it is easy to use, what if we leave this world one day and the power we have cannot be taken away, then the effect brought by the ability will also disappear?" Zhou Yiyu replied with a crying voice.
If a person bears his heart, he can be afraid of anything.
Shen Yi thought about it very seriously, then opened the big mouth of the dead ghost leader, took out a round meat egg from it and sent it to Zhou Yiyu: "Then why don't you keep it as a souvenir." ”
Zhou Yiyu looked at the thing in Shen Yi's hand, felt a chill in his heart and didn't dare to look at it anymore, turned his head and said extremely sadly: "Bury it." ”
"Good. ”
"Be buried thickly. ”
Shen Yi couldn't help laughing anymore, and punched Zhou Yiyu: "Drive you." ”
Black Lightning re-embarked on the journey to the monastery, calculating the time, and in order to test Shen Yi's thoughts, they delayed for about ten minutes.
At this rate, they will definitely not be able to catch up with the Dragon's Tooth team, but Andariel is located in the catacombs below the monastery, where the terrain is complicated, the roads are long, and there are many monsters of all kinds, and the Dragon's Tooth team will have to go through a hard battle before meeting Andariel, so they still have a great chance.
Running all the way, Shen Yi opened four blue boxes, each of which contained a flame amulet.
Fire Talisman: Increases your Fire Resistance by 6 when equipped.
The so-called increase of fire resistance by 6 points means that it automatically exempts fire damage from less than 6 flames. Like Shen Yi's spirit musket, 3 points of fire damage per bullet is completely ineffective for those who have a talisman. If a fire bullet or tinder is used, the bullet will only deal 10 fire damage and only 4 fire damage to the owner of the amulet.
This thing is also a very practical prop, Shen Yi casually threw it to Ai Wei, Lao Meng and Zhou Yiyu each: "It's exactly four people." He laughs.
"I hope Andariel can also divide the four of them. Lao Meng replied that he was more concerned about the completion of the task. Although he didn't know how Shen Yi could pull out his teeth and snatch this piece of food from the mouth of the Dragon Tooth team, at least now there was enough temptation and motivation for him to fight hard.
"I'm afraid it won't work. Andariel's strength must be at least six or seven times greater than that of Hirosu Bisu, and I don't hesitate to lose her vitality, and I can only swim against her twice at most. Ivy said hurriedly.
"Two times is already good. Shen Yi said with a smile.
"Then how to divide it?" Lao Meng was a little nervous.
After thinking about it, Shen Yi said: "I think so, each of you will get points once, and I will get the reward, how about it?"
Lao Meng shouted: "The reward is all yours? That's not good, you're taking advantage of it too much!"
Shen Yi sneered: "Then you get the reward, and I get the reward points, how about it?"
Lao Meng was immediately dumbfounded.
Bounty points are directly related to whether they will be wiped out by the city, but the rewards have nothing to do with it.
Andariel's bounty is 600 points, and she will be able to get rid of the shadow of death immediately after getting it, and as long as she continues to fight, she will not be too far from the standard score. In this case, whether the reward points or the reward are important, the answer is self-evident.
For Shen Yi, he is sure that even if he gives up this mission, he can get points for the following tasks, after all, he has the whole team as the backing, and Lao Meng and Ai Wei are not sure of this - without Shen Yi, they don't even want to grab the contribution points of other tasks.
After thinking about it, he could only agree: "Then what can you do to snatch food from the Dragon Tooth Team?"
For this question, the corners of Shen Yi's mouth pursed a smile and replied: "It's simple, kill them all!"
―――――――――――――――
The car traveled at speeds of up to 300 kilometers per hour through the stone field into the black wasteland and headed for the Taymor Heights. Halfway through the journey, the Blood Emblem sent a hint that No. 4215 killed the Blood Crow, completed the Buried Bones quest, and gained 200 contribution points.
As for the rest of the world, there was no news yet, and the flood was still running wildly on the way to Tristram.
While marching, Shen Yi made a battle plan. Lao Meng is more familiar with the Dragon Tooth team and roughly knows the main composition of this team.
The Dragon's Tooth team is mainly composed of five melee members, two rangers, two summoners, and a special enhanced adventurer. The boss is called Long Hao, and he is quite bold, but he is too conceited. It is said that he once challenged Xie Rongjun one-on-one, and although he was defeated by Xie Rongjun, he finally survived.
From this point of view, the Dragon's Tooth Team, like the Bloodpier Team, should be the kind of team whose strength is mainly based on the captain.
In fact, a considerable part of the team in Bloody City has the characteristic that the captain occupies at least one-third of the team's strength. On the one hand, only enough strength can deter all the team members and make their orders obeyed, and soft speech can never compare to a powerful iron fist, on the other hand, it is also because no one who has the ability is willing to be subservient to others, and is more willing to pull up the team by himself. As a result, powerful adventurers in various areas of the Bloody City often serve as captains in various teams, and there are very few cases where true elites are grouped together.
Characters like Xie Rongjun, Shen Yi, Ban Dongming, and Liu Sen are really impossible to get together. We are all talented people who excel in different fields, and if we get together to complete tasks, just assigning task rewards is enough to kill each other. It's better to find someone worse than yourself to become your own support, leading them through the level while also satisfying your own huge need for reinforcement, so as to further expand your lead.
This is also related to the unique thinking of the Oriental people who would rather be the head of the chicken than the queen of the ox, and the corresponding model is the strong alliance of the people in the Western District. The more elite the characters, the easier it is to come together and form a super strong team lineup. It's just that this kind of lineup takes advantage of the early stage, and in the later stage, the limited rewards when the team does the task drag everyone back, resulting in the phenomenon that the strong team is not strong has also appeared repeatedly.
As for the difference between the north and the south, they divide the team according to the country and region, and it has nothing to do with the strength or weakness......
In short, the performance of the teams in each region of Bloody City is very different due to the differences in their regional cultures. And for adventurers in the East District, the leader is the soul, and that's a normal thing.
After understanding the general situation of the Dragon Tooth Team, Shen Yi generally already had a case in his heart. He was also quite experienced in dealing with this kind of team with the captain as the main combat core, and quickly formulated several sets of action plans.
The scheme is not detailed, mainly because of the limited knowledge of the opponent. In the absence of sufficient understanding, an overly detailed plan of action will not help the battle, but will easily lead to rigid and rigid responses, so it is sufficient to comprehend only its spirit.
Lao Meng greatly appreciated this - he rarely saw a person who did things so carefully and precisely, but could grasp the right measure.
And with Shen Yi's plan, even if he may not be able to fight, at least it is no problem to escape.
"Now I'm starting to feel 20 percent more confident. Lao Meng said.
"It's only two percent, it seems that you are really cautious enough. Shen Yi said with a smile.
"Prudence is my guarantee that I have survived until now. ”
"Unfortunately, Bloody City needs brave warriors, not sentinels who watch cautiously. Shen Yi sent it back to Lao Meng with a blue word.
After the plan was made and there was still time, Shen Yi suddenly asked Ai Wei: "By the way, can you tell me how you got the time reversal?"
Time reversal is not a cabbage on the side of the road, you may not be able to get it if you go to the wilderness ten times, there must be some special reason for this.
didn't expect Shen Yi to suddenly ask himself this, and Ivy's face darkened.
It took a moment for her to mutter, "This is the ability I got on my last mission." I was still in the ghetto at the time, entering the quest world of the first season of heroes. That mission required us to protect the characters in the mission world, and the optional mission was to kill Serra. Although Serra is only a level 3 mutant, he is one of the few multi-abilities who can directly steal abilities from other abilities. In the mission world, his strength has been strengthened again, and it can be said that we are no match for him at all. So initially, everyone was content just thinking about completing the main quest. What I didn't expect was ......"
She paused before she said, "There was an adventurer in that mission, he was very smart and powerful, and he organized us so that we could easily complete the main quest. Just as the mission was about to end, he suddenly said that he was going to take us to challenge Serra and steal his power......"
"I remember that Serra doesn't seem to have a time-like ability, right?" Zhou Yiyu asked.
Ivy sneered: "Of course, he didn't. The one with the time ability is the character Hiro, the Japanese. So that guy came up with a plan......"
Shen Yi blurted out, "Let Sera kill Hiro, and then kill Serra after he has the time ability, so as to gain Hiro's ability." ”
Everyone was shocked at the same time, and Ai Wei looked at Shen Yi in surprise: "How do you know?"
Shen Yi nodded: "Because this is the most reasonable explanation." Temporal abilities can't be obtained through normal missions, only through some abnormal means. Of course, this also means a huge risk...... When a character dies, the strength of the boss is greatly strengthened. ”
"That's right!" Exclaimed Ivy excitedly, "I was adamantly against taking risks that time, but everyone was captivated by this great temptation. They're just dying, they're like a bunch of crazy people!"
"Greed is the driving force of all progress, either at the top or into hell. Shen Yi said lightly, he couldn't understand this kind of adventurous mentality.
The adventurer who proposed the plan was actually very similar to Shen Yi, the kind of person who dared to take risks for the sake of huge interests. They're bold and they're crazy. Behind the audacity and madness, however, there is a danger of death - it is not that if you dare to take risks, you will be successful.
"But in the end you succeeded. Zhou Yiyu said.
Ivy shook her head, "No, we failed. Our original plan was to kill him as soon as he gained the power, but we didn't expect that when Serra got Hiro's power, he would be promoted directly to the fourth level. His energy increased so much that his life increased with it. Our sneak attack was successful, but it only seriously wounded him but did not kill him. And Serra, who has the ability to control time, is simply invincible. He froze all of us at once, and the 25 adventurers who participated in the attack on him were killed by him one by one, which was easier than killing chickens, until I was the only ......one left."
Speaking of this, Ivy's body trembled slightly, obviously remembering the invincible scene of Sierra at that time.
One adventurer after another fell defenselessly, and Serra was like a demon, crazy, arrogant, terrifying, and bloodied everyone who attacked him.
"Then how did you survive?" Zhou Yiyu asked incomprehensibly.
There was a hint of confusion in Ivy's eyes, and she thought for a while before she said, "At that time, I was frozen by Serra's time ability, but for some reason my consciousness remained awake, and I looked at Serra killing us one by one, and I was scared, but I couldn't do anything about it. As Serra walked up to me, I suddenly felt like I could move, and I instinctively used all my strength to hit Serra...... He was beaten to death by me like that. ”
"How is this possible?" Zhou Yiyu exclaimed, "How did you do it?"
"I don't know. Ivy shook her head, "It was like a nightmare to me, and I don't know how I got out of it...... I got rid of the control of time, and I killed Serra inexplicably, survived, and even gained the ability to go back in time. ”
Everyone was silent at the same time.
What Ivy said was so strange that no one could figure out what was wrong.
After a while, Shen Yi said, "Did you see anything strange in the process of killing Serra?" I mean...... No matter what you see, even if it's a hallucination. ”
Ivy shuddered for a moment, she looked at Shen Yi and replied, "Yes, there is a strange thing." ”
"What is it?" Shen Yi asked urgently.
Taking a long breath, Ivy replied, "One...... White figure...... The figure of a girl in white ......"
