Chapter 30: A Difficult Choice
It didn't take long for the nezumi to be driven out of the ruins by the dwarves, who used detonators to blow up the passage they had dug out, completely sealing off the areaβββ making it impossible to kill them all. The dwarves who have been fighting with the rat people for hundreds of years know very well that this group of rats has almost knocked holes under the entire continent, and unless the world is destroyed, it is basically a pipe dream to completely eradicate them.
But for them, that's enough.
"Awesome job, big man!!"
Brock was carrying an axe stained with the flesh and blood of the rat man in one hand, and beating Duanmu Huai's calf with the otherβββ dwarf was not tall, and with Duanmu Huai's height of two meters and five, Brock was about the same size as a puppy in front of Duanmu Huai, and he couldn't jump to his knees.
"I didn't expect you to be so capable!"
Bullock was indeed happy, in fact, at first, he only wanted Duanmu Huai to help them share the pressure, after all, this big man was wearing heavy armor and carrying a war hammer, and he didn't look like an easy character to deal with. As long as he gets the nezumi a little bit of attention, then his side will go a little better.
But Brock didn't expect Duanmu Huai to charge directly forward, resisting the fiercest attack of the rat people, and firmly attracting their attention. This allowed the dwarves to show their strength as well, and it can be said that this time they were able to repel the nezumi army so easily, and Duanmu Huai played a great role.
Let alone...............
"You actually killed the heroes of that group of stinky rats!"
"Heroes?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, when he was fighting, he did receive a system prompt that 1500 experience points were credited to the account, but Duanmu Huai was busy playing whack-a-mole at that time, and he didn't have time to look at it. Listening to Bullock talk about it at this time, he was also confused. Bullock laughed, beckoned, and soon saw a dwarf approaching with a nezumi head.
"That's it! Death Master Snicky! I really didn't expect it to die in your hands, hahahahaha!! β
As he spoke, Brock couldn't help but laugh again. Snick, the Master of Death, is a powerful assassin among the nezumi who is proficient in assassination, and Brock has fought him several times, each time in a feather. The reason is also very simple, that is, the strength of this nezumi assassin master is too strong, even the armor of the dwarf is completely unable to defend against its three poisonous blades. However, this time, this guy was actually killed by Duanmu Huai, and at this moment, Brock's heart was as comfortable as drinking a big sip of fiery wine.
Now that Snicky is dead, it's time for those stinky rats entrenched under the Grey Mountains to get out!
"It's not my credit, it's Orgith who killed it."
Hearing Brock's introduction, Duanmu Huai realized that it was no wonder that the mouse was so resistant to fighting, and he didn't smash it with a hammer. Even if the opponent is an assassin who is mainly flexible, I am afraid that the hero unit will have a level of 35 or higher. I'm only level 21, and if I count the attack power of the Thunder Warhammer, I can't kill it with one hammer.
But fortunately, with Ogis by the side, it was an accident to get rid of a big problemβββ rat man not only likes to poison, but also likes to assassinate. Duanmu Huai didn't want to be remembered by a master assassin all day, and it was better for him to die at this time.
"Well, that's also the credit of the two of you, and I'll report this to the High King! He'll be satisfied! β
Looking at Bullock's appearance, it is obvious that he has a deep hatred for this master assassin......... Well, Duanmu Huai remembered that the Supreme King of the Dwarves seemed to have a small notebook, which was specially used to remember the names of the enemy, and if he killed one, he crossed out the other, and he didn't know if this assassin master was in the Supreme King's small book of revenge.
"From now on, you're friends with the dwarves! We've always been generous to our friends! What do you want? Say whatever you want!! β
Hearing Brock's words, Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up, and then he stared at Brock.
"Mr. Bullock."
"Just call me Bullock, they've all been on the battlefield together to cut down the rat people, they're brothers! Less of those who are vain! β
"Alright then, Brock......... What are you going to ......... next? Are you planning to explore the ruins? β
"Uh-huh..............."
Hearing this, Brock paused, then looked around and nodded.
"Yes, we have this plan, and we have to see if those rat people have left any broken things here, and we have to clean them up as well."
"Can you let me take a look in the ruins and find something fun??"
"Oh?"
Brock was a little surprised by Duanmu Huai's request, but he thought about it for a moment and then nodded.
"No problem! Take whatever you like, we dwarves are never stingy! β
"Thank you then."
Hearing Brock's answer, Duanmu Huai was also relieved in his heart.
The reason why he made this request was not because of an archaeological fetish, on the contrary, compared with the dwarves who were still unclear about the situation here, Duanmu Huai could see at a glance that the ruins under him were very likely to be ancient holy relics!
The so-called Ancient Sage, on this planet, is the creator of ancient times, and it is rumored that it created humans, elves, dwarves and other races. And this is indeed the case, except that the Ancient Saint is not a creator, but an extraterrestrial civilization with a very developed level of technology. Legend has it that these ancient saints are like frogs, they have unimaginable scientific and technological strength and magical power, and they belong to the culmination of the dual cultivation of monsters (science).
And these ancient saints came to this world to create species to fight against the demons and chaos of the subspace, and elves, dwarves, etc. were also created because of this.
But then something went wrong, and the portal created by the ancient saints in this world collapsed, and chaos poured in. And Gu Sheng saw that things were not good, so he directly threw away this experimental field and turned around and ran without even mentioning his pants, and the speed was not much slower than the third party who was caught and raped in bed by her husband.
After that, Chaos invaded this world on a large scale, and the entire planet was in danger, but in the end, the remaining races in this world joined forces to overthrow Chaos, and used the "Great Vortex" to completely block the entire subspace, which can be regarded as saving the planet.
These are all stories that the player discovers later during archaeology, and after that, the Old Saints have not been seen again. Even after the game was updated several times, players did not find any clues of the ancient saints, and at that time, some players wondered if these guys were hiding in some corner of the universe, or if they were not able to run away in the first place, and were killed by the subspace evil god.
Or maybe it's just that the production company dug the hole and didn't fill it and forgot about it.
All in all, although the Ancient Saints have run away, many of their technological relics are still remaining in the ruins of this world, and even include a complete technological tree evolution route!
After all, the Ancient Saints have been fighting with Chaos for I don't know how many years, and they have skilled experience in fighting Chaos, so their technology is quite significant in the face of subspace evil gods and chaos erosion. Its strength is basically rated at T1 by players on the ladder list, and a few technologies can even be rated T0.
And the best way to obtain these technologies is to find the ancient saint's technological relics in the ruins, and then take them to the [Inquisition Library] for analysis, and then build them.
Before Duanmu Huai crossed over, he did know that there were a few places where the ancient saint technology relics actually existed, but at that time, these places were all large guilds competing for, and he couldn't afford or use them as a lone player. Moreover, the places that Duanmu Huai knew were all over Aurora, and as for whether there were scientific and technological relics in the ancient holy ruins of this gray mountain range, he couldn't say.
But......... Don't you find out just by looking around?
With Brock's permission, Duanmu Huai also put his mind at ease and began to walk around the ruins. He also knew a lot about the Ancient Saint Ruins, after all, most of the Ancient Holy Relics were very similar. It's like a modern person traveling into the Fallout Wasteland, and you can almost know what each building is for at a glance.
But before that............ Duanmu Huai turned on the system and quickly settled the task.
[The time-limited mission "Disinfection" has been completed!] γ
[Mission Evaluation: Quite Outstanding]
[Players gain 3000 experience, an additional 2000 experience, level up to LV22, attribute points +1, specialization points +1]
[Gain Extra Expertise (Chase and Fight)]
[Chase and Strike: +5% Critical Strike Chance, +15% Critical Strike Power when attacking enemies with negative effects]
How so...............
After adding attribute values to strength again and raising the level of Space Marine's combat training, looking at the effect of this extra specialty in front of him, Duanmu Huai's heart was a little complicated.
In fact, he can use this specialty now, simply put, he βββ take off his helmet and then fight against the enemy, his own LV2......... No, now LV3 deterrence is enough to debuff the opponent, and then you can continue the [Chase and Fight] effect.
But............... In this way, do you want to have this face?
Face or intensity, that's a question.........
For Duanmu Huai, this is really a difficult choice.
