Chapter 667: Approaching the Corner

The battle ended quickly, because there were no elite monsters like General Norza, and these ordinary "Fallen Elves" were no match for the "Wind Forest Volcano" squad at all.

"It doesn't feel like it's fun, the experience given by these fallen elves is quite high, if only there was another elite monster."

Klein drew his knife and looked around, feeling a little unfinished, now killing this kind of humanoid monster, not to mention what kind of psychological burden they are, now they are simply a little bit unable to kill, and they can't wait to have a special "Fallen Elf" leveling area.

"If there are really hundreds, thousands, then you will cry, these fallen elves are still more difficult to deal with than ordinary monsters."

Ling Ze complained, after all, these simple AI monsters should be able to brush out as many as they want, and if they really want to brush out hundreds or thousands of "fallen elves" here, it is really enough for them to bear, after all, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and there is also a hidden setting of fatigue.

Klein couldn't help but shudder, as if he thought of being surrounded by thousands of "fallen elves".

"Let's go, let's go, this is the hometown of the fallen elves after all, don't really let those guys surround us!"

The frightened Klein's attitude immediately changed, and he began to urge everyone to move forward, which made Kirito, Asuna and them both laugh, Klein is really a living treasure.

The group returned the way they came, and they were not attacked again, except for a little discomfort in Kizmail.

After handing in the mission in Galei City, they practiced around again and did not return to Galei City until late at night.

"Today's destination is the southernmost Key Ancestral Hall on the sixth floor!"

The next morning, Kirito announced his battle plan for the day.

The main story of the sixth floor of the "Elven Wars" event quest is the "Onyx Key", the task content is to attack the labyrinth located in the southern area and recover the "Onyx Key", as long as the "Onyx Key" is brought back to Garley City and handed in, it will be successful.

Although the flow of the task is very simple, the problem is that the labyrinth that hides the "Onyx Key" is located in the southern area of the sixth layer that is divided into quintiles in a radial shape.

Kirito opened the sixth layer of the map displayed in the window, and pointed his finger to the expected route of movement to the group.

"Our current location is here, and the Secret Key Ancestral Hall is probably near here, which means that we have to pass through here and the rocky mountain underground passage here, and it will be quite difficult to break through from the front, so I wonder if there is any secret shortcut passed down by the dark elves or something?"

The main purpose of Kirito to open the map is to ask the "dark elf" Kizmer for advice.

As for the explanation of the map, there is no need to explain it at all, and Kizmer directly understands it as a "spell" of the Terrans, just like equipment slots, messages, and the like.

"Uh... There's no such thing as a shortcut......"

Kizmer replied with a smile, much to Kirito's disappointment.

"However, there is a way not to cross the rocky mountain."

Seeing Kirito's disappointed expression, Kizmel quickly added with a smile, which surprised everyone.

Everyone was surprised that there was such a way, and they were surprised that Kizmel actually joked with Kirito.

"How to get there?"

Ling Ze asked, feeling that it was time for these people to adapt to Kizmail's intelligence.

"Come with me."

Kizemael didn't say anything, but sold it, and she led the way in front of her, and led the people south, to the lake in the center of the sixth layer, and it seemed that the way she said was there.

In the center of the sixth floor, there is a star-shaped lake, called "Lake Tarufa", indeed, if you can cross the lake, it can indeed greatly reduce the travel time to various areas, this method, of course, players have tried it during the closed beta period, after all, for players who can be resurrected infinitely, exploring this hidden road is also one of the fun of the game.

However, inside Lake Tarufa, there is a desperately strong starfish-type monster that will die if it is swept into the water by its tentacles.

For today's players, challenging the starfish is tantamount to suicidal behavior, so Kirito is very nervous, he doesn't know what Kitzmer's intentions are.

Led by Kizmer, the group walked into the dry river valley outside the city of Garley, and as when they came, they were stopped by a large number of desert monsters such as sun-avoiding spiders and death worms, and everyone quickly advanced south in the dry river valley, and soon reached the hilly area in the southern part of the region.

The various areas of the sixth layer are fan-shaped, so the closer you get to the central lake, the narrower the width on both sides, and the star-shaped "Lake Tarufa" is located in the deepest part of the narrow channel.

After traversing the parched wilderness and river valleys, Kizmail was finally able to take off his green hood.

The proximity to "Lake Tarufa" had apparently made her no longer affected by her "debilitating" state, and Kizmer was careful when wearing that cloak, after all, it was an ancient piece of equipment.

Everyone first replenished the water, although the players did not produce a "weakened" state, but the water should still be replenished, just like the time to eat when it is time to eat, this game is always very real in this kind of place.

At this point, Kizmel would always be envious of the players' "backpack system", because if they had to carry supplies, they would have to carry them on their own, while players were much more convenient, as long as they didn't carry more weight, as if they didn't carry anything, which was a bit unrealistic.

"Actually, there are fruits here that can replenish moisture, do you see that particularly majestic cactus? In the crevices of the cactus spikes, small red fruits can be picked. ”

After taking a sip of the water that Asuna had prepared, Kizmer said, pointing to a tall cactus not far away.

The crowd was curious, so they approached the cactus.

The spikes about 10 centimeters long in the cactus are covered with small red fruits, and by putting your fingers in them without the spikes, you can pick the round fruits about 2 centimeters in diameter.

Ling Ze picked one and put it in his mouth, and at the moment of biting, a sweet, icy and sour carbonated juice flavor burst out in his mouth, making people feel fluttery for a moment.

"Good fellow, solid carbonated drinks, huh?"

Ling Ze was dumbfounded, this familiar and unfamiliar taste was really nostalgic, and he hadn't drunk it for a long time.

As for Kirito, Asuna, and Klein, they simply grabbed it like crazy, and those who didn't know thought it was addictive.

"This tree is called the Serusion tree, and its fruit is one of the highest delicacy of Ayn Grande, but this tree only blooms and bears fruit once a year, and the season is not certain, and all the fruits will burst in just thirty minutes after flowering, so you have to eat it quickly as soon as you find the fruit."

Kizmer is also in the ranks of rushing to eat it, in fact, the reason why people will start rushing to pick and eat it is because of Kizmel's introduction.

Ling Ze didn't join in, he looked around, there were many such Serusion trees, but there was really only this one, this tree was really amazing.

Ling Ze waited patiently for a while, until they finally finished eating the fruit from the tree.

"Alright, it's almost time to go."

Seeing that everyone had finished eating, Ling Ze clapped his hands and signaled to continue on his way.

Kizmael nodded, and led the group forward quickly, where the blue glittering water could already be faintly seen.

Soon, they came to the "Lake Tarufa", and everyone was amazed because they saw a beautiful picture in front of them.

The first thing that greeted them was a white sand beach, surprisingly transparent water, slowly lapping the fine sand, the color of the lake was constantly changing, from emerald green to cobalt blue, shining dazzlingly in the sunlight, standing on the edge of the lake, the air seemed to be warmer.

"Lake Tarufa" is not very large, and you can see the vague opposite shore from this side, which radially divides the entire sixth layer into quintiles, and the shape of a star can be clearly seen from both sides of the beach, deep on the right, deep on the left, and cut into the lake from the front.

"Wow! I really want to tread water here! ”

Asuna called out happily, but before she could move, Kizmer grabbed her, which relieved Kirito, and it seemed that Kizmail was also aware of the situation.

"Don't do that, this lake is inhabited by terrifying starfish monsters, I haven't seen them with my own eyes, but it is said that its long arms can reach from the depths of the lake to the shore."

Kizmail said solemnly, which made Asuna immediately take two steps back.

"I've seen... That guy's name is Osio Mei Toast, and it's very dangerous indeed. ”

Kirito spoke, and he looked at Kizmer.

"So Kizmer, how are we going to get there?"

Kirito couldn't help but ask, he was curious about what Kizmail was going to do.

Kizemael lifted her head and smiled confidently, then pulled out a prop from her fanny pack, a thumb-sized glass bottle containing a blue liquid.

"Just drop one drop of this potion on the sole of your boot."

Kizmer said confidently, and she immediately got to work, first putting two drops on her shoes.

After the potion was dropped, Kizmail's entire pair of boots began to glow blue, and an unfamiliar icon appeared under the HP bar, which was a symbol of "boots stepping on water".

"Floating on the water?"

Ling Ze immediately understood the meaning of this icon.

After hearing Ling Ze's words, Kizmer was stunned for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up as if he understood.

After dripping everyone's boots with liquid, Kizmael retracted the bottle into her fanny pack, and then crossed the white sand and stepped her feet on the smooth, clear water, where she was going to go up to give everyone a sample.

At the beginning, it was just a very ordinary penetration of the water, but after the fourth step or so, and when he began to step into the deep water, the surface of the water spread out incredible ripples, and Kizmael did walk on the water.

"Wow!"

Looking at this scene, Kirito, Asuna, and Klein were all surprised, but Ling Ze asked the key to the problem.

"Kizmer, won't the starfish come out when you walk on the water?"

"I can guarantee that, but the spell formed by the droplets of Verully on the shoes is only effective when you walk quietly, and if you run or jump, you will fall into the water, so be sure to act slowly and calmly."

Needless to say, the fate of falling into the water will naturally alarm the starfish "Osio Mei Toast", and the body of the "Osio Mei Toast" will never float to the water, so it is almost impossible to defeat it, once it is alarmed, it will harm everyone, after all, the starfish is an indiscriminate attack.

"Did you hear that? But don't be nervous, the conditions of not running and jumping are actually not that difficult, at least it is much easier than a game controlled with a joystick, right? ”

Seeing that everyone was a little nervous, Ling Ze made a joke, this joke successfully made Kirito and Klein laugh, they could all understand the meaning of this, but Asuna couldn't understand it, but she wasn't nervous, this is the advantage of agile players.

The crowd walked very cautiously onto the surface of the lake, and followed Kizmer, not quickly, but steadily.

"If only there were shoes like Viscount Jofelis."

Walking on the lake, Ling Ze suddenly thought of Viscount Jofelis's shoes, the shoes that added the hair of the "Velully Maiden", which were obviously much stronger than the effect of this Velully droplet.

"How can that kind of shoe get ......"

Kirito complained, after all, they all knew the story of the shoes, which were a pair of shoes in exchange for the death of a "Verully girl".

The water elf "Verully", a creature closely related to the elves, has not been seen so far, let alone find a way to "hunt" one or two, and the fate after "hunting" is also worrying.

After a few small talks, they concentrated on walking, and soon they saw the white sand beach on the opposite shore.

By this time, the surface of the water beneath their feet had regained its transparency, and it was possible to see schools of fish swimming in the water, and there were coins or gem-like objects glittering at the bottom of the lake, making people want to reach out and catch them.

But this is obviously a trap, once you reach out, you will wake up the starfish, unless you knock down the starfish, those things can only be seen, and you can't even think about touching them.

Everyone held their breath all the way, and finally stepped on the white sand beach safely, until far from the shore, everyone stopped at the same time and exhaled a long breath.

"It worked! It's a success! ”

Klein jumped up, his face flushed, obviously walking across this lake is not an easy task, the main thing is that the psychological pressure is too great.
