323. The ups and downs are the daily life of a vault hunter
"Damn, Brother Bang, aren't you an elite under your command? How did the whole wave disappear! β
At the same time as Murphy and Lord Pa Ying were talking, the little player who had just suffered a group annihilation disaster in Xike City also started the post-disaster communication, and the little rich brother's slightly startled exclamation sounded from the private chat communication, making the happy stick who was far away in Xike Ling, who was heading towards the southern arsenal of the Blood Vulture Clan, replied with a painful face:
"Well, it's not uncommon for horses to stumble. The good news is that the information and maps we bought for 150,000 gold from the Little Earl are true, and there is really a big treasure underneath Sico City, and the bad news is that that place is a high-level map.
I think that if you want to hunt for treasure in a squad, you must at least have a silver-tier player take the lead, and if you want to enter on a large scale, it is estimated that you can trigger a hidden group book.
You haven't seen the whole Dead City come back to life.
All I can say is that the army of ghouls we encountered in the sewers of the Crimson Keep was nothing more than an 'appetizer' compared to Sico. β
"Damn, is that awesome?"
After listening to it, his first reaction was shock, and he asked rhetorically:
"But isn't Transencia a 'novice village'? How can there be a high-level dungeon in the Novice Village? What did the development team think? β
"It's not necessarily a group book."
At this time, Brother Woo Meow, who was sitting on the gargoyle and had just finished bandaging himself, also joined the "group chat", and with a sense of happiness for the rest of his life, he said to the little rich brother:
"When we asked the Valland knight to leave just now, we saw that the vulture knight was discussing something with the little earl, and we only heard a few words, but it must have something to do with the old count of Sico.
I guess that while we were besieged by the army of the undead, they also had an accident in the city, so there must be a chance that Sico City could become our 'friendly unit' in the future.
Didn't your friend trigger a new class before he was doing well, and there was a 'coffin bearer' related to undead creatures in it?
I think this side of Sico City may be a high-level transfer place for necromantic powers, you see that the plots in those classic games are designed like this, and there will definitely be a super large quest chain that will eventually guide us to help the little count complete the father-daughter reunion. β
Speaking of this, Brother Meow grinned and fantasized:
"Maybe that's the hole card for Transncia and Master Murphy? Perhaps, after the arrival of the Black Plague, once the war is unfavorable, it will evolve into an army of jackals VS a sea of the undead?
I rub! Thinking about it this way, maybe going to the undead manipulator is the next version of the answer! β
"The beauty you think of, in terms of the number and strength of the undead camp in Xike City, even if the necromancer profession is really opened, what can it be? You need at least a few thousand necromancers to take it over, right? β
Brother Bang is far less optimistic.
Perhaps it was because of the blow that made him regain his vigilance and make him think about the problem very realistically, at this time, sitting on the high-flying gargoyle, under the control of Yansang, a professional pilot, the huge gargoyle flew steadily and fast, and Brother Bang looked at the ground in front of him and took out the treasure map obtained from Master Murphy to compare it with the terrain.
He said:
"Let's not talk about it over there, I'm just going to report to you, although we are wiped out this time, we have gained, about fifty gold bricks will be handed over to you after I go back."
"Awesome!"
The little rich brother exclaimed:
"In this case, you can still get a harvest, worthy of being a good brother, but I can't use so much for the time being, the administrative department has not opened a banking system, I can't just find a place to dig a pit and bury the gold bricks, right?
Besides, your team has lost so much that you can't make up for it?
You're obviously in need of money more than I am right now, Bang Man, I know you're stressed, but don't have it yet!
I'm not a black-hearted boss who wants to squeeze you, so you don't have to work so hard. β
"No, one yard is one yard."
Happy Stick said very firmly:
"If you want it to be your business, I have to correct my identity, otherwise we won't be able to continue this cooperation, so let's do it, I'll keep ten yuan and give the pension to my brothers later, and you can take the rest, whatever you want."
"Your good friend Lao Huo is not an administrative profession, and he will be the village chief in the future?"
Brother Woo Meow came up with an idea next to him and said:
"Now that Transencia is in ruins, they need start-up capital if they want to develop the village quickly, so it's better to use these forty gold bricks to invest in Lao Huo's village like your team investing in Brother Bang.
I see that your brother is not an ordinary person, on the surface of the literary temperament, but in fact, the appearance of hiding needles in the cotton is estimated to make a wave of big things, you believe me, it is absolutely right to invest in him!
Maybe it's a lucrative deal. β
"Well, that makes sense! That's my own brother, and I should support it. β
The little rich brother was quickly persuaded and agreed to the distribution plan of the happy bar, and at the end he admonished:
"If you need help, just keep up, I'm here to gather people in the Crimson Keep to bring you reinforcements, don't just save face and can't open your mouth, it's going to happen."
After saying that, he took the initiative to hang up the communication.
Brother Bang put away the arithmetic orb and was silent with a silent face, and Brother Meow next to him leaned over and said:
"Your boss is really a good person, he is very good in all aspects, but it is a little too simple, no wonder he was so uncomfortable by those old fritters when he opened a company before."
"The better he is, the more pressure I have, it's one thing to use fishing as a means to fight wits and courage with a stupid boss, and it's another thing to bully a kind little fool, and it's always like this to make my conscience uneasy."
Happy Stick shook his head and said:
"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the next action."
"What does that mean? If you find a place, let's rush down and do a wave, that place is so remote, I don't believe that we can still farm out powerful guards! β
Brother Meow pursed his lips, he was silent for a moment and then bumped the shoulder of the happy stick, and asked:
"How much is your 'potential release'?"
"10%, what about you?"
Brother Bang turned around and asked, and Brother Meow shrugged his shoulders and said:
"I'm 13%, a little more than you, this guy has to get more than 70% before he can open the Silver Trial, at this rate, it is estimated that it won't be done in two months, speaking of which, I always feel that we have used the wrong way.
The potential release of this stage of the Black Iron Rank should not be as simple as fighting, otherwise the frequency and intensity of our battles in the recent period will not even increase by 20%.
We'll have to study this in our spare time later, otherwise it would be too stupid to wait until the Black Plague breaks out and still be in the Black Iron Rank.
I heard that when the black plague really rushed over, but the black iron was all over the ground, and the silver was not as good as the dog, and our current individual strength was still too vegetable. β
"It's not that you said that, you still haven't departed from the traditional power mode of upgrading and fighting monsters."
Happy bars obviously have a different view on this issue.
He said:
"To take the simplest example, Lord Murphy is also a Black Iron Rank, but you have also seen his combat power, do you think ordinary silver creatures are his opponents?
Of course, you could also say that that's the prerogative of the main NPCs, but I think it's best not to have such naΓ―ve ideas in a 100% realistic game.
Learning to learn from his predecessors on the path of power is the right way, maybe we should learn from Master Murphy, you know that he has to practice swordsmanship with that magic sword every day in the Blood Vulture Corridor, I have quietly observed before, and the style of swordsmanship he practices every day is different.
Perhaps, this is the secret of potential unleashing.
It's not just about fighting, it's about learning."
"Study."
The old cousin next to him, who was quenching the poison on his dagger and short sword, raised his head when he heard this, he rolled his eyes and said:
"What age are you all doing, and you don't study well in reality, so you let us settle down in the game to get a certificate? It's simply not realistic, okay. β
"That's what I said, and I don't have a definite answer, do I?"
Happy Bar snorted and said:
"Maybe the potential improvement of the Black Iron Rank depends on time to grind slowly, didn't the NPC also say it? This stage must be slow, this is the time to lay the foundation and create your own fighting style, and rising to the silver level too quickly will only make the potential lose in vain.
In other words, if you follow this statement, then the content of the Silver Trial is definitely not a battle, right? β
"I've heard what 'atavism' is."
Old songs also joined the discussion.
He took his beloved shotgun and pulled out a snuffbox and put it under his nostrils, and whispered:
"I talked to Mama Marianne about this in the Adventurer's Guild camp before, and Mama told me that the Silver Trials of each race are different, but the common denominator is that they all have to trace the source of their respective bloodlines and obtain the so-called 'Ancient Power'.
For example, there are many Kates in the adventurer's guild, and the Kate from Greeney Island has a race talent related to natural psionic energy, once the silver is completed, the witch hunter's skills will not only be enhanced, but also from the awakening of the racial talent to obtain new racial skills.
Mama Marianne said that she had seen a witch hunter who had received the power of a powerful ancestor such as 'summoning a thunder eagle and a flying lion' when he broke through the silver tier.
She also gave the simplest example, which is the eldest lady Fimis.
I don't know if you've noticed, but after the eldest lady came back this time, her wings were at least two times larger than before, and her flight speed was at least twice as fast.
Maybe this is the silverization of the blood vulture vampire? β
"Hmm, it probably means 'digging inward for power'?"
Black Silk Gomo rubbed his chin and guessed:
"From a professional to black iron is to release the potential of the body, from black iron to silver is to release the potential of the bloodline of the race, so from silver to gold, we will probably seek to enhance and complete the evolution of life forms from the outside?"
"That's not right!"
The shield hand Sangodou quickly discovered the blind spot, and he frowned and said:
"According to Marianne, each race has its own bloodline potential to explore, but we players don't have a breakdown into races at all, right?
We are human beings, and we don't know if we are Kate, Sealand or Nord? Even the human subspecies mountain people or barbarians, the development team did not do this aspect of the content at all, and it is no wonder that our potential release bar has risen so slowly.
I GUESS WE MIGHT HAVE STUMBLED UPON A HIDDEN BUG. β
"This can't be called a bug, right?"
The last member of Brother Woo Meow's team, Jie Chong, whispered:
"At most, the gameplay is not perfect, maybe the development team is working on this content? I think given the frequency of updates to Real Otherworld, it's only a matter of time before players are subdivided into races.
Maybe there will be a choice in the future, so that we can freely choose our own race.
At that point, the trial of silver will be considered to be truly complete.
Ha,No wonder NPCs have been emphasizing that the promotion of the black iron level can't be rushed, and it's been a long time since the development team hasn't finished the content development in this area! What a chicken thief. β
"Hey, if you really want to follow this statement, then I guess this aspect will definitely have to be made up before the outbreak of the Black Plague at the latest."
Brother Meow grinned and said:
"Dog Planner is not really going to throw a group of Black Iron Tier players into the brutal Black Disaster Battlefield, right? That's a shame. β
"That's right, so now just have to be patient."
Brother Bang nodded, and Yansang, who was manipulating the gargoyle flight in front of him, spoke:
"It's almost there, brothers, hurry up and get ready. Brother Bang, you take the map to me and choose a good place for us to land accurately. β
"Come on."
The happy stick moved behind the crowded gargoyle and unfolded the map in his hand in front of Yansang's eyes.
The professional pilot glanced at the anchor point, compared it with the terrain below, and then nodded:
"Nice, right in front of the mountains. Anyway, this place is so remote, this is already at the junction of Xikeling and Saxophone Mountains and Forests, why did the Blood Vulture Clan put their arsenal here? β
"It is said that the construction of this arsenal coincided with the Second Night War."
Happy Bar explains:
"At that time, the background was that the Old Church of Nature was invading the mountain woodlands in order to conquer the mountain people here while fighting the vampires, so Sarokdal built an arsenal here to support the mountain warriors of the Portian Confederacy, but in the end the place was useless.
However, the Vulture Clan's arsenal has already been built, so it is hidden in case of emergency, and the same is true of the arsenal to the south.
But it was built a little earlier, supposedly after the Third Black Plague.
It's a secret place.
Even Lady Triss didn't quite know where the arsenal was, except that it seemed to be close to the Fortress of Krimu, and it must be somewhere in the Dark Barony anyway. β
"I said, can you be serious? This treasure hunt! Let's get the current one first, and then talk about the one in the south, this treasure hunt line is basically your monopoly, so don't look at the mountain high. β
A few minutes later, the huge gargoyle slowly landed in a woodland, Brother Meow jumped a few times, and then took the map in his hand to distinguish the direction, and said to his teammates:
"Yansang, use your heavenly eyes to see if it's around here?"
Professional investigator Yan Sang drove the "Gargoyle Plane" for a day, which would be tiring, but he didn't say much, just pinched his hand very unhappily and launched the reconnaissance technique again.
The perspective suddenly shifted to a high altitude to overlook, allowing him to take in the terrain of the nearby mountains.
Happy Stick received the task of exploring the Blood Vulture Arsenal from Murphy, but Murphy himself didn't know exactly where the Blood Vulture Arsenal was hiding, so he could only give a general direction according to Trace's reminder, but the Blood Vulture Clan must be hiding more than just finding a random corner.
According to Trace's guess, the place must be near some remote village in the vicinity.
Using this information as a guide, Yansang soon spotted a suspicious area, and just near a small stream in the valley, he searched for a small settlement.
Just as he was about to report, Yan Sang suddenly let out a puzzled snort, he took out a psionic magic weapon from his arms to enhance the effect of the reconnaissance technique, and brought his bird's-eye perspective closer again, and then exclaimed:
"Not good! The village that is suspected of being a treasure trove has been destroyed, and there is still a fire burning, and there are people over there! They're moving things from the ground to the surface,! Brother Bang, the arsenal you're looking for may have been accessed first! β
"! Can it still be like this? β
Happy Stick was immediately angry.
His treasure hunting journey was not smooth everywhere, this will be holding back the fire, he was in a hurry, he got up and grabbed the hussar sword and was about to rush over to kill the group of thieves, but was stopped by Brother Meow.
The cunning social man asked the scout of his team:
"How many people? Can you tell who it is? β
"There aren't many people, just a dozen."
Yan Sang replied while adjusting the magic weapon to make himself see more clearly:
"The terrain over there is complicated, and I won't be able to see their specific features for a while, but I see someone flying between the rocks, it should be a vampire? But it's certainly not on our side. β
"I can fly, and I can find this secret place accurately, it's definitely the group of blood vulture traitors who haven't cleaned up before!"
Sanwudou shouldered his awesome heavy shield and one-handed hammer, and said to the others:
"I've heard from Master Maxim's heirs that there are still some vulture traitors roaming the forests on Sicoling's side, and the mountain people don't allow too many vampires to enter their forests, so the Assassins under Lady Adele's command can't track them down effectively.
However, it seems that the mountain people are hunting down these vampires who have betrayed Transasia, and the Blood Rat Gang has a long-term bounty for them, as long as they bring back the vampire heart, they can get a reward.
This is the Blood Vulture Vault, and these traitors know the location and can explain it.
Hey, aren't you saying that's a coincidence?
This wave must be won! Just to make up for the loss of Brother Bang. β
"That's right! How can you not eat the meat delivered to your door? β
Happy Bang smiled and said:
"Up! them, brothers! The bounty is divided equally among everyone. β
