Chapter 264: Card stone

Views:

Ye Ci stood at the bottom of the long staircase in the main hall of the Saga Temple, looked back at Mark who shrank his head, and asked softly, "Are you sure that the thing you saw entered this place?"

"Yes, my friend, I swear by all my lost possessions and my gods, they definitely got into this." Mark seemed to shiver as he recalled the situation at the time. He clasped his arms tightly, Keep trembling: "It's terrible, they don't have a head, no head!!"

Ye Ci waved his hands again and again, motioning him to stop, so that he should stop sighing, because she saw Arauna's pale face, which was even whiter now: "It's alright, I understand." She said again. He turned around and looked at the majestic temple, then looked at Mark again and asked, "Would you like to come in with me?"

"No, no, I don't want it! I'll just wait for you here." Mark waved his hands and shook his head again and again, but he looked at Ye Ci's gloomy face, and quickly began to cough a few times and said, "Oh, my friend, my The body is too weak, if I go in with you, I will definitely bring you a lot of inconvenience, I must not drag you down, so I will wait for you near the temple."

Ye Ci nodded, of course she knew it was like this kind of task, it would be best if NPCs like Mark didn't follow up. If she followed up, it would become an escort task, so she would be a little weak in her avatar, so it would be better to let him stay outside. Better to say: "Okay, then be careful out there yourself."

"My dearest friend, if it's convenient..." Mark rubbed his skinny hands and looked at Ye Ci with a hint of greed: "If it's convenient for you, you can take my lost goods with you. come back? i promise

. I will definitely not treat you badly. "

Ye Ci snorted, noncommittal, but said to Araunah, who was already pale, "Let's go, let's go in."

Arao held the staff tightly in his hand, glanced at Mark nervously, then nodded vigorously, and followed Ye Ci towards the stairs of the temple. Mark hid away, looking at the two people who were far away and sighed: "If you die, don't blame me, but I was forced. Of course, it would be best if you were alive, I 's goods, my goods..."

Of course, it was impossible for Ye Ci and Arauna to hear his murmurings, but when the two of them walked on the empty and huge stairs. The wind was blowing constantly, blowing up pieces of rolling yellow sand, which hurt more or less when it hit people. Araunna frowned. He followed Ye Ci and said softly, "White Elf, what is the headless monster that the businessman said?"

"I don't know yet, I'll know when I see it." Ye Ci also told the truth, there are many monsters without heads in fate. How did she know which one appeared here.

"White Elf, why do I always think that the merchant's words are unreliable?" Araunah said carefully: "If those headless monsters are so fierce. So terrible, they can loot his caravan. , can kill all the people in his caravan, and rob all his goods, why keep him?"

Ye Ci looked at Arauna, and was slightly surprised that this ordinary NPC could actually think about this problem. It seems that he is not too far away from being able to raise the NPC level. "He was not very reliable." Ye Ci admitted Araunah's guess indifferently, to Ye Ci. Mark is just an ordinary NPC who starts a mission, no matter if he is telling the truth or a lie. Just take her to the temple. After all, she was leaving the map. The most important thing is to enter the temple to trigger the decryption system of this map. Whether it's killing the boss or the start of another quest is unknown. To Araunah, though, Mark was an untrustworthy outsider, because his treacherousness and sophistry would affect his own life.

Two people stand at different angles and see different problems. Ye Ci is not surprised by this. However, in order to better cultivate Araunah's growth, she still answered his question from Araunah's point of view: "He must have something to do with those headless monsters, or even have an agreement, That's why he suddenly appeared in front of us. What's more, he appeared so quickly and strangely that I didn't even notice it, which also means that there is something wrong with him."

Araunah heard Ye Ci's words, and without hesitation, he put his hand deep and grabbed Ye Ci's arm: "White Elf, then let's not go in, okay? Since you think that too, Mark is not a good person, why should we? Do you want to listen to his words and come to this place? Do you want to enter this temple?" He said, looking up at this majestic and magnificent building, and shuddered: "Let's not go in.

. "

"Araunah, there are some things in the world that you can't escape just because you're afraid. If you want to be a hero, you have to face it. Besides, if we don't come to this temple, we will never get out. Out of this desert... Do you want this? When we finish eating and drinking water, we will turn into ordinary skeletons on this sandy sea, starving to death and then being pecked by vultures. I am It doesn't matter, it's just you, you'll never see the reading and Mara, is that what you want?" Although Arauna is a good assistant, and his firepower is extremely powerful now, as an ordinary NPC, he There are still many faults, such as the situation of being timid and wanting to retreat in the face of difficulties is not uncommon.

To get him to get rid of this problem, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine and stimulate him for the things he cares about the most.

Sure enough, after listening to Ye Ci's words, Arauna seemed a little braver. He looked back at the dead bones or buried deep in the long yellow sand, and couldn't help shivering. Quickly ran a few steps to keep up with Ye Ci, "White Elf, did you say that Taku encountered these difficulties after he left the tribe?"

For Araunah, who always wanted to be a shaman, Taku was the highest goal, and a dream that could never be reached.

"Of course, I'm afraid I have encountered difficulties that are more severe than these difficulties." Ye Ci glanced at Araunah. Said lightly: "If you want to be a hero, how can it be so simple? They must have experienced hardships and difficulties that we never imagined in places we can't see."

Ye Ci stopped when she said this. She stood quietly on the stairs, looking at the rows of pillars in the outer hall of the main hall, as if she was sensing something.

"What's the matter? White Elf?" Arauna stood behind Ye Ci. Although he mustered up his courage now, a little something wrong with Ye Ci would still cause a lot of pressure for Arauna. Looking at Ye Ye The word stopped and stood there. Araunah hurriedly came over to ask for clarification.

"Araunah, we're going to prepare for battle." When Ye Ci said, he had already taken down his bow, and swishly released several flares under the pillar to illuminate it.

Although it is daytime

. Greatly restricted the role of the lighting talk, however, under the illumination of the flare. It can still be clearly seen that many black shadows on horses are slowly wandering, walking under the hall. All of them are invisible monsters, if Ye Ci entered this area rashly just now. I'm afraid that they have already been alerted, and now they are dead hard.

"A lot of people on horseback." Araunna swallowed. Then he made a fighting posture: "White Elf, I'm ready."

Recently, Ye Ci found a special use for cat's claw. It can not only be used as a climbing tool, but also has a very practical function, that is... Ye Ci threw out a cat's claw, grabbed it straight at the shadow knight closest to him, and then dexterously Shaking his wrist, Ye Ci had already pulled him back when the Shadow Knight was still ignorant. Araunna, the fourth child, and the addition of Ye Ci immediately rushed up and beat him, causing the Shadow Knight to fall to the ground before he could react.

Ye Ci picked up a few gold coins and a white outfit from the body of the shadow knight. Throwing it in the package, he continued to do the same, dragging all the shadow knights back. Then one more fell.

This map is a decrypted map, similar to a copy. Therefore, once the monsters are dealt with by the player, they will not be refreshed again, and Ye Ci doesn't have to worry about whether he will be attacked behind him.

Although the level of the Shadow Knights is as high as 85, it is not particularly difficult for Ye Ci and the others, especially if they solve it one by one, it is not difficult. Cleaned up. Standing in front of the hall, Ye Ci stretched out his hand and wanted to push the door, but before his hand touched the door, he saw that the door slowly opened by itself.

Ye Ci was stunned for a moment, then immediately hugged Arauna and rolled away to the left. A donkey rolled and hid behind a huge pillar. The fourth hurriedly followed Ye Ci and rushed behind the pillar. , carefully hide his fat body.

"What's wrong… "

Arauna really didn't understand what happened to Ye Ci's sudden situation, she shrank beside Ye Ci, raised her head and looked at her with some doubts.

Ye Ci put his finger on his lips and gave a soft shush, signaling him not to speak. Araunah also closed his mouth, and when the door of the main hall slowly opened to the maximum, he heard a terrifying wind blowing from the main hall, and the sound was really scary enough.

Then, only a gloomy voice was heard from the hall. The language he spoke was obscure and incomprehensible, and it was not a language that was usually heard when he heard it.

. However, Ye Ci felt a little familiar. This kind of language was often encountered in the later large-scale dungeons. If she guessed correctly, this language should be demon language. This also confirms the statement that Saga is the demon king Naga's minions, and the creatures in this hall are probably all dark demon creatures.

In contrast to demon creatures, they are sacred creatures, and for demon creatures, sacred attacks do much more damage than ordinary attacks, so generally in the later fate, due to the diversity of creatures, the special Refinement is also more demanding. For example, at present, most of the mages are three-line mages, ice, fire, and arcane. This is related to the low requirements for biological damage at this stage, and it is also related to the fact that there are not so many skills in various occupations at this stage.

In the later stage, with more and more skills, the damage requirements to bring down monsters in the later stage also become higher and higher. It's not that the learned profession is not good, it's just that few players will have such a passive skill as Ye Ci with strength accumulation. Naturally, there will be no shortage of blue forever. In combat, magic value represents attack power and damage value. If you never lack mana, of course you can be very knowledgeable. It's a pity that there are very few such cases. In the middle and late stages, the amount of mana has become an important indicator to limit the development of various professions. At that time, players can only adjust their special skills according to their own operations and the amount of mana. fine direction.

In addition to mana to limit the player's development path, of course, there is the most important point. That's the talent point. The more talent points you have, the wider the range you can choose. However, the talent points are generally fixed, unless the player can participate in the first kill or touch some hidden tasks and complete them, the system will give some additional rewards. Talent points.

Sometimes Ye Ci will inevitably think. In fact, the setting of rewarding talent points for the first kill is that the system intentionally widens the gap between players. The number of players is infinite, but the dungeons and bosses are limited. Their first kills are even more limited. Only players with better equipment, stronger strength, and higher-end teamwork can get the first kill and get extra talent points. The talent points obtained can make them more powerful, and they can kill more first kills and top five...

This is an iterative situation.

At first you might not see much of a difference. However, the accumulation of sand into a tower will add up to a lot. In the later stages of the game, the changes that the number of talent points can bring are too obvious. For example, you can learn more skills, you can get more health and mana, you can strengthen your defense and various indicators, you can learn two or more specialization talents, and so on. The benefits are I can't finish talking for a while. This is also one of the main reasons why Ye Ci is very keen on the first kill.

She never thought greed was a bad thing

. It just depends on what aspect. In some things, greed is actually an effective way to improve a person's growth.

Unfortunately. After all, such people are in the minority, and such strong people are also in the minority after all. whenever. There is no absolute fairness, that's what defines the world.

Although this has to be said to be a pity, looking at it from the other direction, it is not necessarily a good thing. For example, in the later stage, if it is a fire-type dungeon, the ice-type occupation will definitely be able to deal more damage, so the team can arrange more ice-type dps, and in the battle with the demon type, you can arrange more Priests join the battle for dispel and holy damage bonuses. Wait wait, this tactic is very common in the late game, but it is relatively rare in the early game.

Ye Ci listened to the long demon language, although she could not understand what the other party was saying, but the string of unfamiliar language was sonorous and powerful, cadenced, but very passionate. Ye Ci thought that it was like an army. Before the expedition, someone was doing the pledge meeting.

Just, where is the army

Sometimes, Ye Ci felt that he was really black. Whether it is luck or words, it has even developed into an idea now. As long as the bad things she thinks of are basically realized gorgeously, what the hell is going on

Ye Ci was just thinking about where the army of this oath-taking meeting was when he heard a thunderous cheer that came out from the hall. The sound was so loud that Ye Ci felt that the floor tiles under his feet began to tremble slightly.

"What happened?" Araunah swallowed nervously.

Ye Ci shook his head, motioning him not to make a sound, and then he also looked towards the door of the hall that had been opened. Not long after, I heard the sound of neat horse hooves coming from inside the hall, probably because there was no open space in the hall. Soon, Ye Ci saw a particularly tall black horse coming out of the hall, with a tall flag hanging on its hip, and a knight in black armor on its back!

The knight's armor glowed faintly, making the black armor even more demonic. A long sword hung from his waist, the sword body was shimmering with silver light, and the cold air was threatening. Of course, the most striking thing about this knight is not the accessories, but the fact that there is nothing on his shoulders!

headless rider.

Ye Ci's heart sank

.

Headless Horsemen are the worst creatures to deal with. Their magic resistance is relatively high, and their physical evasion is relatively high. The most effective way to deal with them is the holy word of sacrifice. However, the success rate of low-level Holy Word is relatively low. If the level is high, it is possible to kill a dark creature in seconds with a Holy Word. It's a pity that there are no sacrifices around Ye Ci now. There is only himself, a half-physical and half-magic hunter, a pure physical dinosaur and a pure magic shaman. It is still a bit difficult to deal with this guy.

Ye Ci threw a reconnaissance technique at the headless knight, not only stunned. Good guy, this monster is actually a quasi-boss monster with a level of 95. And his name is - Fantel. In Destiny, as long as it is an NPC monster with a name, his attack power is definitely not to be underestimated. What's more, this is a quasi-boss-level creature, and it is definitely not easy to get cheap from it.

Just when Ye Ci was still thinking about how to deal with Fantel, she suddenly saw Fantel walking towards the stairs below the main hall, and behind him were rows of headless knights, who were walking from the hall. They came out one after another. There are about twenty in each row. Although they are not as majestic as Fantel, they are also well-armored. Impressive. Ye Zi counted, and after walking out of more than 20 rows, there was no sound in the hall, and it seemed that he was finished.

And they all followed Fantel to the bottom of the hall. Lined up neatly in the sea of sand.

Ye Ci was afraid that these headless knights would see him, so he dodged. He hid behind the pillar, and by the way, he recalled the fourth child. Although the pillars outside the hall were thick, Ye Ci felt that it was difficult to cover the plump figure of the fourth child. In such a crisis, it was better to let it hide for a while.

Fantel concentrated these headless knights on the sand in front of the temple, and let them begin to practice. They concentrated and separated for a while, doing various exercises in formation. After doing this for a while, Fantel once again held the long sword in his hand. Gather them together, form a very close formation, and then start talking again. Ye Ci still couldn't understand what he said. But it doesn't matter what he said, the important thing is that Ye Ci knows. None of these headless horsemen remained.

Just how to kill them? This has become a problem.

Ye Ci asked Arauna to hide behind the pillars, and he entered the stealth state. He wandered around the temple for a while, and spent about ten minutes, but Fantel didn't seem to finish speaking. He continued to chatter there, which made Ye Ci a little strange. Could it be that these demonic creatures also pay attention to holding meetings and meetings? What has been said for so long

Of course, these are not the key points of Ye Ci's concerns. The key point is what kind of place she is looking for that will not hurt herself, but also deal with these guys on a large scale.

. Soon, Ye Ci saw that there were two boulders under the temple on the left front of the entire group of headless knights. Each of these two boulders is as tall as a person, thick and large, and stacked together to form an angle of about forty-five degrees, just enough to accommodate two or three people hiding inside. The two boulders are backed by the foundation of the temple, and there is only a small entrance on the east side for one person to enter. As long as someone blocks the entrance, these two boulders can completely become a dead end.

According to Ye Ci's previous experience, 90% of the boulders appearing in the map can be used to block monsters, but the location of the monsters needs to be very delicate. Ye Ci decided to go to the middle of the two boulders and find a place, which could not only accommodate himself and Arauna from taking too much damage, but also reduce the impact of these headless knights, so that they could grind to death. them.

Climbing into the middle of the two boulders, Ye Ci looked up and down, left and right, and found that it is not bad to get stuck here. This can be regarded as an unintentional bug. The two boulders are backed by the temple foundation to form a triangle, On top of the boulder, the stone slabs protruding from the foundation of the temple are subtly covered on top of the boulder, so it looks like a small stone house. You can completely avoid monsters rushing in.

After the experiment was over, Ye Ci greeted Arauna to come over quietly.

Arauna is now level 86. According to his level, fourteen totem poles can now be inserted at one time. Ye Ci asked him to insert totem poles around the boulder to make the whole totem pole form a pot Mouth, just wait for the monster to come in. It can be easily killed.

After making all preparations, Ye Ci sneaked out and hid towards Fantel who was still talking nonsense at the temple gate. Ye Ci made a rough estimate. There are probably between 240 and 300 headless knights here, plus a Fantel, they are all linked monsters. As long as the attack is concentrated on one, they will rush in the direction of the attack unceremoniously, killing the opponent in the shortest time.

He has two legs, and the other party is riding a horse with four legs, Ye Ci doesn't think he can run past them. But if you add a bottle of acceleration potion, you can't say it. Ye Ci remembered that she had just burst two bottles of intermediate speed potion when she was fighting those shadow knights, but now it was just in time to come in handy. He shot an arrow at Pantel, who was closest to him.

Bleeding Arrow!

Hit, continue to lose blood!

This makes Ye Ci a little surprised, he is really shit luck

. A monster that is thirty-five levels higher than himself was actually hit by one blow. Damn, this chance is too small! but. Now she doesn't have time to deal with this kind of thing, she doesn't even have time to see how much life is lost after the bleeding arrow hits. Immediately turned around and poured the acceleration potion into his mouth, and began to run towards the two boulders.

Of course, because of the 35th level difference, this bleeding arrow did not cause much damage to Fantel. However, the continuous damage caused him to lose more than 100 or 200 blood per second. It's a pity , this meager amount of blood is nothing compared to Pantel's own recovery ability. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Ye Ci. Although she has no head, Ye Ci can still feel the cold eyes like a poisonous snake shot against her back!

Pantel has found itself!

Is not this nonsensical? A monster as advanced as Fantel doesn't have to struggle at all when dealing with Ye Ci. She can be killed, how could she be beaten and not find her trace? Only Pantel made a very sharp sound. Then Ye Ci felt that the whole ground began to tremble.

She didn't dare to look back at all, just listening to these voices, she knew how terrifying the battle behind her was.

Ye Ci's own speed is not slow, and he drank another bottle of intermediate acceleration potion, but under such circumstances, Ye Ci still felt that he couldn't outrun the four-legged monster. She ran desperately, as if she was dying!

Fantel looked very angry. He rushed to the front of the entire team and roared angrily at Ye Ci. The sound seemed to have magic power. It hit Ye Ci and her speed was reduced immediately.

Depend on! It was actually a sonic attack! Ye Ci's heart is depressed. She looked at the duff in her body, and it actually reduced her movement speed by 50%! If it goes on like this, won't she be sure to die? She looked up and saw that she was very close to the two boulders. She gritted her teeth and clicked on the skill "Dark Dispelling" on the ring!

In the next section of the road, it is impossible for Fantel to summon this skill again! He has to cool down doesn't he

Darkness dispelled!

Immediately, the buff on Ye Ci that reduced the movement speed by 50% disappeared, and Ye Ci immediately ran towards the two boulders.

Fantel obviously didn't think of how the opponent who was hit by his sonic attack could still run so fast, so that the advantage he had just narrowed was gone. Ye Ci rushed over regardless

.

"White elf, hurry up! That big guy is right behind you!" Arauna hid in the boulder, looked out from the gap, and shouted loudly at Ye Ci.

Of course Ye Ci also knew that Fantel was behind him, but he was still seven or eight yards away from the boulder, and it would take at least two seconds to run there.

Sometimes a second is short, it's just a blink of an eye, but sometimes a second is long enough to decide a person's life or death.

There was a whistling wind in his ears, and Ye Ci's body subconsciously tilted to the left, flashing slightly! A long sword rubbed her ear and stabbed it out. Although it didn't hit Ye Ci, it also took away nearly one-third of her blood volume. Ye Ci was agitated and ran faster.

Fantel didn't hit Ye Ci this time, and his body stagnated slightly for about a second, then roared angrily, raised the horse's front hooves high, and leaped in the direction of Ye Ci. !

Said to be in a hurry at that time, that is, that moment. Ye Ci actually rolled on the spot and rolled into the middle of the boulder. The hooves of the Pantel steed rubbed her body and stepped on the ground, leaving a pair on the soft sand. A deep and ruthless horseshoe mark. Ye Ci looked back and felt a shiver in her heart. She knew that if the pair of marks stepped on her body, she was afraid that her life would be mournful. She didn't dare to stay, and immediately recruited the fourth child, leaving him in a stagnant state. Tightly staked the entrance.

Looking up through the gap and looking outside, Ye Ci only saw that the sand was flying, and countless headless knights rushed towards the two boulders. Now all the hatred is on Ye Ci's body. If she doesn't get rid of the hatred, it is impossible to guarantee that the fourth child will be stabbed to death soon. So what Ye Ci has to do now is to transfer all hatred to Araunah.

She stared at the headless horsemen outside, and when she saw that they had entered the range of the totem pole, she said to Araunah, "Start attacking!"

Araunah was a little nervous though. But because he didn't seem so afraid with Ye Ci, he nodded and immediately began to sing spells. And Ye Ci immediately feigned death after Araunah's totem poles released chain damage.

"You have left the battle!" The system prompts.

As long as the leaf word is out of the fight. Then there will be no hatred in her, and the fourth child just needs to stand at the door. Those monsters won't attack him anymore. This is the rule in the game, attacking the unit with the most hatred, the unit without hatred in the team will not attack...

The chain lightning net not only brought a lot of damage, but also brought a large-scale paralysis effect, and the movements of those headless knights were obviously sluggish.

. Ye Ci took a deep breath, and while instructing Arauna to continue the attack, she opened her backpack. She remembered that she had three bombs left on her body, and it seemed that it came in handy now!

Just when the headless knights were being rushed around like headless flies because of paralysis and rear inertia, a bomb silently landed in the middle of him. Too bad no one found it.

"Boom!" A loud bang!

A huge pothole was blown out in the sand, and with the loud noise came sand like sharp swords, and they smashed on two boulders. It was a lot of attacks by the boulder, but there was still sand rushing in from the gap of the boulder. It caused some damage to the two of them, but it was not too big. A rejuvenation by Araunah made both of them recover.

Looking at the gap, there was a vast amount of smoke and dust, and I couldn't see anything clearly. After a while, the dust settled, and I saw a huge pothole in the sand, and there were many headless horsemen scattered in and around the pit. However, there were still some headless knights who escaped the blow, but they didn't have much blood left, and because of the side effects of the bomb's shock wave, they didn't seem too energetic, crooked upside down.

Although Fantel also avoided this attack, he didn't look too good, at least he didn't look too optimistic from his stumbled appearance. Ye Ci threw a reconnaissance technique on it again, and found that the blow just now had caused most of his health bar to drop, and now less than a third of it remained.

"7 Araunah continue to attack!" Ye Ci was overjoyed when he saw Fantel like this. Although it didn't hurt to hit this guy by himself, if Arauna was there, it would not be difficult to kill Fantel. , not to mention that he and Araunah are still under such a strong fortress, and they are extremely safe.

Araunah nodded. The bomb just now gave him countless confidence. Although there are still many headless knights scattered outside, he no longer has any fear in his heart! He closed his eyes and began to sing a spell. The totem poles that were inserted outside felt the call of their master, and they began to sizzle, emitting extremely powerful damage values again.

Looking out from the gap, Ye Ci only saw a piece of red damage value, which was densely packed and very refreshing. In addition to the experience value brushing, she sincerely felt that this method of brushing monsters was really cool. It's just a pity that this method of spawning monsters requires too many people at the right time and place, and if you can't reach one of them, you can't succeed in the end, but despite this, Ye Ci still feels that today is really a great harvest! (To be continued)
