Chapter 249: A Chance Encounter Under the Gray Mist (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The gray fog was filled, and the thick fog intertwined like dark clouds, and the city was dark and hazy.
Towering buildings loom in the gray mist, and the exterior walls of the buildings dozens of meters high have shed a lot of wall skin, and cracks spread on them, like gray-black climbing vines crawling all over the building.
From the thick cracks, or the shattered windows, there were faint pupils of cold eyes, staring out at the barren streets outside.
There are also rusty and dusty cars, broken billboards, broken windows, and more.
It's a dead city.
Four figures dressed in flame-patterned robes were cautiously navigating the dead and dimly lit street.
Polly is at the forefront.
According to the tactics formulated before coming, she and Captain Shi Yunxi stood one in front of the other, and Miss Anna and Sister Cen Jingjing in the middle, holding bright torches to illuminate the surroundings.
This is to be on the safe side, if there is an accident, one of the torches goes out and the other burns.
Through the light of the torch, the surroundings come into view.
Polly couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness in her heart, "The world is about to fall, is this the future of our Blue Star?" ”
"Probably yes, so the mentor created the fire, groomed us, and we were going to stop the disaster."
Stop the disaster.
Chewing on the words in Captain Shi Yunxi's mouth, Polly had a different understanding for the first time.
It's not just a simple oath when you join, it's not just because of the dazzling exchange list, it's just because the disaster is too heavy.
The destruction of a city, you can escape.
The destruction of a country, you can escape.
But can you escape the destruction of a world?
The dilapidated city made Polly very uncomfortable, and she wondered if the cities she had passed before, which had been occupied and destroyed by evil spirits, had gradually become like this?
I can't run any longer, I am now a warrior of the fire, a warrior who holds the flame of dawn and dispels the darkness!
"Be careful, there's a treachery up there, three."
Hearing Cen Jing's words, Polly quickly came back to her senses, she raised her head without looking, and instantly turned her arm into a diamond, following the fierce wind in her face, she threw a punch hard.
Bang –
More than two meters long, like a big cockroach, the whole head was shattered, and the body rolled out to the side under the huge force of Polly, smashing the window on the ground, and knocking away the models posing one by one, and there was no life.
The second cockroach was treacherous, and as soon as it flew into the air, it was slashed by Anna's hot and sharp flame thread, and its whole head was gone.
But a third one pounced, and the sharp teeth bit hard at Polly.
Looking at this scene, Shi Yunxi did not make a move.
Her tactical position is to reserve strength in case of contingencies, which has been laid out before the departure, and now, it is not yet the time for danger.
She trusted Poli.
I saw that Polly's left arm also turned into a diamond in an instant, and with the sound of "dang", the treacherous sharp teeth tore through the wide sleeves of the shirt, and bit a small hole or two in the combat uniform, but it could not bite through the arm that was as hard as a diamond.
In the next second, Anna's support arrived, and the firing line pierced through the treacherous one.
A seemingly thrilling but sparse and ordinary battle has come to an end.
Whether it is Polly or Anna, Cen Jing, and Shi Yunxi, they are almost familiar with the battles in the Secret Realm.
In most cases, the encounters are not difficult, and with the team's combat power, even if they encounter two or three three-star demons, they can be killed in a moment.
But in the exploration of the Secret Realm, it is not only the kills that need to be considered, but also the movement, endurance and so on.
"Let's go."
"On the left, we'll turn into a less densely populated area, which will be easier to walk."
Hearing Shi Yunxi's words, Polly scratched her head and expressed curiosity, "Captain, isn't it the first time you have taken this road, how do you know that there are fewer road buildings in front of you?" ”
"Because of the map, the treacherous world is the other side of the deep dive in reality, most places are in contrast to the real environment, like the place where we are now is the tricky interface of Linshan City, I have collected the map of this city in detail before coming."
emmmmm, she still suffered the loss of no culture.
When you get back, you have to hurry up and make up for the lessons, but you can't be a scumbag like President Iroshi.
"Understood, understood." Polly nodded with her little head.
Captain Shi Yunxi is so reliable~!
The march of the team is not in a straight line, avoiding some areas with complex and changing environments, as well as the occasional large figure passing by.
If you can avoid it, you can avoid it, and if you can go around, this is the criterion for exploring the secret world.
Polly does what she tells her to do, and she's constantly memorizing these tips.
Occasionally, there will be a detour because of treasures.
There are many times like this, and Captain Gain Shiyunxi has purchased a 'Treasure Detection Radar', which is a special ability that can only be purchased by regular personnel.
Able to discover mysterious materials centered on oneself within a certain range.
Detection radar is charged by the hour, which is not cheap, but everyone thinks that this is an official benefit of the fire, and there are too many mysterious materials collected along the way.
12 pieces of green material and 1 piece of blue material.
In contrast, the fee is not worth mentioning, they feel that it is too cheap, and they are worried that the organization will lose too much money because of it.
As she collects the materials, Polly's eyes widen, she knows that the treasure is around, but she still can't find it or recognize it many times.
This is another loss of unculture.
Sure enough, sure enough, you can't learn from President Iloshi to be a scumbag, the scumbag has made a lot of money, and the scumbag may have lost all his underwear.
…
…
After more than an hour, the four-member team finally arrived at their destination.
A treasure collection point located in the underground parking lot.
"This is ......"
The environment in front of us, dilapidated and dead, at least still contrasts with reality.
But here, there are no rusty vehicles in the underground parking lot, but it is as if you have walked into a huge underground cave, which is cold and damp, mostly rugged ground, and in some places is concrete, and steel bars stand.
The primitive and the modern are in harmony.
was shocked, but Shi Yunxi spoke.
"The target area has arrived, stay vigilant!"
She looked around, stepped forward, crouched down at the junction of the flat concrete floor and the rugged rocks, and played with her silver-gloved palm slightly, revealing a happy face.
"Found it, it's the Stone of the Void! Embedded in the underground area of the intersection, there are three pieces I see now! ”
This is a blue-grade material!
Usually the purchase price of the organization is 30 contribution points, and the high one is seventy, eighty, or hundred, and because this is the task material, it can be at a minimum premium of 50%.
No wonder this task is of high value.
Polly was also excited, and her ponytail swayed.
At the juncture of getting rich immediately, it is even more necessary to be cautious, and the four of Polly are well aware of this, and the three of them are vigilant, and they are mined by Anna, who can unite the line of fire and has strong cutting ability.
"I'm here I go."
Anna inhaled, her body half-crouched on the ground, rubbed the rough junction, and after observing for a while, flames erupted in her palm, condensed, compressed, and turned into a thin red silk rope, and began to cut the earth.
Whoa—
Sparks fly.
Anna cut faster and less often than any tool, and in a short time she mined the first 'Void Stone'.
This was followed by the second and third.
The fireworks on the two bright torches flickered slightly, diffusing a soft glow, dispelling the surrounding fog and bringing light to the pitch-black underground space.
But there is still no way to avoid evil coming to the door.
The most dangerous one was the three Death Giant Worms, which were three-star treacherous and good at burrowing into the ground, and when they broke through the ground from underground, the scout Cen Jing's warning was a little slower.
The earth and rocks are flying, and the earth is collapsing.
The delicate body wrapped in the robe fell downward, as if it was about to fall into the endless abyss.
Polly was startled and sprang forward.
But faster than her was Shi Yunxi.
"Water Flow, Blue Wave Water Blade!"
She drank lowly, and the water that lingered around her turned into a sharp water jet of turquoise, and several water blades slashed at the same part of a giant worm with precision, and the worm was cut off with a single blow.
This was just the beginning, the water around Shiyun Creek was more current, and there was a gurgling sound of rushing water.
The water shot out like a wave, and at the same time, her right fist was accumulated, and a clear white cold current erupted from her silver-white gloves.
"Water Flow, Rapid Freeze, Permafrost Cold Current!"
The freezing power of the Frozen Fist was unleashed, spreading along the slapping water to the two giant worms.
In an instant, two ornate statues froze out, embedded in the collapsed rock.
As Shi Yunxi's last blue water blade fell, the worm statue shattered into several pieces and fell into the seemingly bottomless abyss.
Falling down together, there were two void stones that had not had time to be mined.
Anna, who had climbed up, moved her eyes with the falling rocks, full of regret.
Shi Yunxi was the same, but she was calmer, "There are more treacherous people who have discovered us, it's time to leave." ”
Stuffing the Sky Stone and the valuable things around it into their backpacks, they beckoned the team members, and the four of them quickly left the underground space.
…
…
"Whew~Whew~"
The sky outside was still gray, and it was much more reassuring than the completely dark underground cavern.
Polly was on her knees, gasping for breath.
It's nervous, but I also feel, "Exciting ~!" ”
She blinked her eyes and looked at Captain Shi Yunxi, and the treacherous scene of killing three three-star stars in just a few seconds came to her mind, and she had a cognition of the power of the fire bearer of the organization.
Under the light of the torch, the giant worm of death did not chase after it.
Seeing this, several people drank the potion to recover a little, and then returned along the road from which they came.
Walking through the steel jungle shrouded in thick gray fog, occasionally glimpsing a huge shadow in the thick fog from a distance, either patiently waiting or detouring to other roads, Polly listened to the instructions and walked cautiously forward, and suddenly saw an unusual light and shadow appear in the dense fog in front of her.
The orange light floated in the air, a little bit, but it was more striking than the vehicles and evil ones hidden in the gray fog.
Polly paused.
Just as he was about to ask the captain's opinion, he saw the orange light drifting at an accelerated pace.
Like a gust of wind breaking through the gray mist, Polly could see the orange light clearly in the light of the fireworks—an oil lamp, and the man carrying it.
"Huh!"
