Chapter 458 The Black Lamb and the Night of Dawn
Seeing that Su Mingan became the ghost of the Nine Gods, the other players were not very happy.
In ideal state, of course, they hope that players like Junko Izumi or Markin who are ranked in the eighty or ninety years will become the ghost of the Nine Gods, so that they will be much easier.
The other players chase them, and compared with Su Ming'an chasing them, the pressure is completely two levels. The former can be lightly browsing the streets, or even gathering people to tease and fight against the killing, while the latter... it will really become a farm battle royale, and they can only run when they encounter it.
And the next sentence of the Ying made their faces pale.
"Also, the 'Nine Gods Ghost' will be added with 500% strength, while the other twelve people are suppressed with 50% strength. But after the eight altars are engraved, this strength change will be removed - of course, as the escape party, you can also obtain some reconnaissance and escape skills."
After hearing this, the twelve players all looked solemn. Many people glanced at Su Mingan with their eyes, and their bodies unconsciously leaned back.
They have seen the world rankings. Before the start of the eighth world, Su Mingan's combat power had already soared to 2,400, and was added five times. This is possible, it is possible to reach 4,000...
"It seems that this dungeon is to encourage us to avoid and escape, so it gives us the skills to detect and escape. Anyone's strength is increased by five times, and we, who have been weakened by 50%, will be impossible to confront the ghost of the Nine Gods head-on." Siris analyzed.
"Here." At this moment, Ying stopped.
They had already walked through the dirt road, passed through the layers of wheat fields, and arrived in front of a large processing plant. The chimney of the processing plant was breathing, and a lazy local dog was sleeping in front of the iron gate. At this time, an old man smoking a dry tobacco and a young man wearing coarse linen were sitting around a cylindrical machine that was "pupu" jet.
Su Mingan had seen the stone houses and farmlands of the Fourth Tribe before, and thought it was a world background from the primitive era. But when he saw the industrial-era processing plants and steam engines in front of him, he felt that this was not the case.
The sense of separation of the times seems to be very clear here.
Seeing thirteen players coming, the old man spit out a smoke ring and stood up slowly.
"I am Laot, the farmer here," he said. "Twelve contestants, I will teach you all the skills of 'escape'."
"I am an outsider from Meiyatu a few years ago and work on the farm." The dark-skinned young man glanced at Su Mingan: "I will teach you the skills of 'chasing'."
"Hey? There are NPCs here?" Wang Chaoze muttered, and Sirius asked directly: "What does the Black Lamb mean? What is Jiu Shen?"
Listening to Siris' question, Su Mingan was a little surprised, but found that many players seemed to have the same doubts.
...These people don’t even know what Jiu Shen means?
Su Mingan suddenly realized that he seemed to have a considerable amount of information. He even knew that the Black Lamb was one of the three major authority of the Bai Shen. According to the nursery rhyme sung by Changsheng, the other two authority of the Bai Shen were the black python and the black crow. He just didn't know what these three animals specifically represent.
Lao Te's dry old face wrinkled slightly, and the skin like an old tree bark on his face was tangled into a ball: "...Don't ask too much, adventurers, and all the guides. I just followed the oracle left by the Baishen and were responsible for giving away my abilities of "escaping". Apart from that, I don't know the specific meaning of this battle."
Several players frowned.
At this time, they, who have a good sense of sensitivity, also realized that these dungeons are not just simple games. They seem to have the world background and plot in it.
Lao Te and Meiyatu seem to have come just to complete the preconditions of this game copy. The so-called "chasing" and "escape" related abilities they have are also brought by their own curse, and they do not come out of thin air - that is to say, this game copy is not generated out of thin air, but has a basis.
On the way he came, Su Mingan also saw some people moving in the houses of the farm. Those who seemed to be farmers and workers, perhaps locals who were responsible for night workers. They have been living here for a long time.
"Come with me." Meiyatu glanced at Su Mingan.
Su Mingan left with Meiyatu.
After he left, the twelve players gathered together and began to learn skills from Lao Te.
"The curse on me has brought me some relevant abilities. After subdividing it, I can teach you five skills, and each of you can choose two of them to learn from." Lao Te said.
After listening to it, Lu was not busy studying, but looked around and met the eyes of the other eleven people.
"Everyone!" he shouted loudly, loudly: "Obviously, we twelve have become a large group. At present, we have a common goal and a common enemy."
The other people looked at him and they had no objection to Lu's behavior similar to snatching the right to speak. Perhaps because Lu's popularity is indeed good.
"Our common goal is to carve the blood patterns of the eight altars and open the escape door. Unfortunately, our common enemy is the first player who is not willing to be the enemy head-on." Lu said: "From the rule, any of us who meets the current first player will be defeated, and it is difficult for twelve people to join us. Therefore, as a hiding and escaping party, we need to avoid meeting the first player in action as much as possible... I think these skills are the basis for us to escape. As a group, we should allocate these skills reasonably."
The road has been seen. These five skills are "sensory perception" that can detect other people's movements within ten meters, "tracking eyes" that can see through other escapees' positions, "remote communication" that can communicate with a player within one thousand meters, and forcibly teleport a seriously injured player's "hand of redemption" at the cost of reversing the progress of the altar, and "hidden colors" that integrate with the surrounding environment.
Everyone can only choose two of them, and "Tracking Eye" and "Remote Communication" are obviously essential skills for leaders.
He led the way to choose these two skills that were obviously not conducive to individual escape, and arranged the skills allocation with other players through communication.
"I have healing skills, and the hand of redemption is more suitable." said Junko Iyusuki.
"I want to choose agile perception and hidden colors. I have a lot of career displacement. When necessary, I can deal with Su Ming'an for a while. My guide is also good at concealing, and my life safety should be guaranteed." Wang Wanyu suggested.
"Isabella is my friend, I need a remote communication, some of her skills to be used under my communication. She has a robot that can temporarily create some reconnaissance machines that can be driven."
"Margaret, don't you have the skills of Archangel wings? With the tracking eye, you should be able to lock the positions of all other Black Lamb players, and then cooperate with remote communication to achieve the effect of perspective in the whole picture..."
"Yeah, I suggest..."
"I tend to..." Gu
What is very comfortable is that the players present communicated easily and quickly, and there was no such thing as quarrel over a skill. The scene was as harmonious as friends who had been communicating for several years, and even their respective live broadcast rooms were peaceful.
In the live broadcast room on the road, the audience was cheering them up at this time.
[This game has a great advantage! One fights twelve, even if the first player adds five times, it is useless!]
[It would be fine if you compete with ordinary players, but these twelve are among the top 100 players, each of them is a human spirit, and there are many props on your hands. It is unlikely that you will be easily killed.]
[As soon as the door opens, Su Mingan's bonus strength will be cut off, and it will be miserable at that time. I guess he will be killed directly.]
[Come on Brother Lu! Pleasant for you! Lu Shen became famous in one battle!]
[Lu's fame should have been long gone. I have seen it all the way. Lu is strong and gentle to us. If the first player really loses, Lu, as the leader of the Black Lamb, will really become famous. Maybe there is still a possibility of becoming a leader?]
[I care a lot about the hidden plot of this small copy... I especially like to study these world backgrounds, but the players on the front list don't seem to be digging in depth.]
[It is already very difficult to survive by yourself. There is only one winner in the eighth world. Who has the time to explore the world plot... Oh, except Su Ming'an. He is really so honest that he doesn't know what people say, and it seems that he is still at ease.]
【…】
"Also, the first player's terrifying space vibration skill is also a big problem after being strengthened by five times." Margaret, who had blonde hair, like a saint of the Holy Temple, spoke: "If he activates this skill, those who feel it nearby must quickly change their position. Never be greedy for the progress of the altar and remain in place. Being caught will basically die."
"Yes, I know, you are all strong people at the peak of the world and have a strong desire to win. When you meet the first player face to face, you will inevitably have the intention to challenge yourself." Lu said gently: "But the first player in this state is not suitable for us to deal with it head-on, and temporary escape is not a shame. As long as everyone saves their lives, continue to portray nearby altars after he leaves. After carving the eight altars, his strength bonus will be removed, and we can achieve even more proud victory."
He said it very clearly. For them, this was indeed a team game. The twelve altars scattered around the world, and as long as eight altars are carved, the escape gate can be opened, and Su Mingan will be weakened at that time. But before that, they were grasshoppers on a line, and anyone who died would reduce the number of people, thus slowing down the speed of carving the altars and being eventually defeated one by one.
They are the correct strategy to wander, hide, deal with the ghost being led away, and continue to portray the altar after it is led away.
"There are some props like soul stones in the farm. The fog has an increasingly powerful impact on people. Before we carve the altar, we have to look for soul stones, blood and pens... cough cough..." Some players have already started coughing.
"I don't know what blood can be used to carve the altar, and I didn't give a prompt, but the animal's blood should be OK. Let's try it first..."
They were talking, and the scene was harmonious and orderly, like a meeting with strict order.
...
At some distance from the players, Meiyatu took Su Mingan and stopped beside the cornfield.
Like Lao Te, Meiyatu was walking in the black fog calmly. When Su Mingan asked Meiyatu the reason. He said that because they had no soul stones, they could only teach them at night. Their curse eruption period was still far away, and it didn't matter if they walked through the night for an hour or two.
"I have four skills here, you can choose two to learn." Meiyatu's words were very short and he was a little taciturn.
[NPC (Meiyatu) will teach you skills (Alarming Investigation), (Fixed Charge), (Night Police Vision), (Blood Scribble Teleportation), please select two of them to learn.]
...
[Alarming Investigation (White Level): Passive skill. When there are humans around you, you will get a direction prompt.]
[Fixed Point Charge (Blue Level): Active skill. Select a target within the field of vision and use it as the end point to quickly move. The displacement speed is related to the player's agility attribute point (currently, the agility point is 10 points, the displacement speed is 12m/second). The displacement time lasts up to five seconds. Players can actively cancel the displacement. The cooldown time is 30 seconds.]
[Night Police Vision (White Level): Passive skill. At night, you will continue to gain "night vision" ability and gain a visual effect similar to that during the day.]
[Blood Seal Teleportation (Blue Level): Active skill. Leave a blood mark in a place with dark aura. When the straight line distance between the player and the blood mark is no more than three thousand meters, you can read the bar for five seconds and teleport to the blood mark point. The cooldown time is one hour.]
...
Su Mingan remembers that his footwear equipment is blue-level north wind boots, with a 35% running speed bonus. After turning on the north wind tracing skill attached to the equipment, he will also have a 35% speed bonus within five seconds. If combined with this fixed-point charge, it will have a teleportation effect.
Moreover, it has only 30 seconds of cooling...it is really suitable.
After thinking for a while, he chose the fixed-point charge and blood mark teleportation skills. He didn't need alert detection. He had his own alert detection in the shadow state. With night vision, he could barely see things clearly now. It was more suitable for displacement skills. His space displacement times were too few, so he probably had not developed all potential yet.
After upgrading to level three space, you need to upgrade your skills and advance stones, but he does not have this thing yet and is not sold on the market. He should obtain it by doing the main task.
After confirming, he suddenly realized that these two skills were actually permanent.
...In other words, just participating in this dungeon, he has two more skills that he can always use.
Players on the list gain more than imagined benefits in this dungeon.
Meiyatu told him that the ritual will be activated in five minutes and that he can start acting. There are also some props and temporary skills in the field that need to be explored by himself.
At this time, the raven that had been hiding under his robe jumped out, and it seemed very anxious.
A line of blood words appeared on its head, but the word could not be translated at all. It seemed to be some special ancient text that Su Mingan could not understand.
"It said." Xiboer suddenly spoke:
Chapter completed!
