Chapter 35 Let me see the strength of Diamond One!
"oh?"
Xu Ercong's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked to Wang Dali's side, stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and looked down into the distance.
Skeletons have no visual function, but players can perceive with the soul's perspective and see farther than the naked eye.
really.
There were dark shadows moving back and forth in the far distance.
Although Xu Ercong couldn't see the specific appearance of the black shadow and it was a little blurry, Xu Ercong roughly judged that it should be a group of humans.
At this critical moment, a group of human activities appeared on the outskirts of the Northern Forest. They were either adventurers or temple forces.
"These are enemies from the temple!"
Xu Ercong spoke in a decisive tone.
The reason why he was so sure was that even from a very far distance, he could still feel an aura that made him extremely uncomfortable.
Only the breath from the God of Light and his believers can make the undead feel so depressed and uncomfortable.
This is a setting that has long been written into the game information and is known to the majority of players.
There is a mutual connection between mortal enemies.
Xu Ercong has always admired this setting of the game officials, which can actually allow people to personally feel the momentum and atmosphere that can only be found in martial arts novels.
"Maybe this is the new gaming technology. It's really great to live in a technological society. Playing a game feels like the real world ."
…
"Huh? That's not right!"
Eric frowned and turned his head reflexively to look at the hillside in the distance.
There.
Empty.
Nothing at all.
Eric was still worried, so he looked around again, but found nothing.
"Your Excellency, what did you find?"
The knight's adjutant was very polite. He followed Eric's gaze and looked around, but found nothing.
"Didn't you notice?"
Eric did not reply, but said in a deep voice: "The breath of the undead. Just now, I felt an extremely evil breath."
"If I'm not mistaken, this must be the breath of the undead recorded in the divine code. These evil creatures are the mortal enemies of God, so I feel uncomfortable."
"not found."
The Knight's adjutant shook his head, looked around, and said, "Your Excellency, perhaps it is because we are close to the North Forest that we can sense the breath of the undead coming from the depths of the forest."
"This also proves that the Lord Palace Master is absolutely correct. There are indeed undead spirits in the Northern Forest."
Hearing the words of the Knight's adjutant, Eric shook his head: "If the undead are deep in the North Forest, then why can I feel such a real evil aura?"
"I suspect that the undead are among us."
"Do you think they have appeared yet, sir?"
The adjutant was stunned. It was true that Eric was a leader in the Knights Templar with outstanding strength, but he couldn't be the only one who could sense the breath of the undead, right?
What he said was basically saying that the other knights were blind and deaf?
The adjutant did not dare to question Eric's words, because Eric was the commander of this operation.
"It should be some powerful monsters roaming around."
The Knight's lieutenant paused, then asked, "Sir, shall I send some people to scout the area?"
"good."
Eric nodded and added: "Remember to bring the lucky eagle."
The lucky eagle is an eagle-like magical beast specially cultivated by the temple. It has a strong sense of reconnaissance, can overlook the sky from a height that is invisible to the naked eye, and can exchange information with summoners who are proficient in animal language.
The most crucial point is that the lucky eagle knows how to protect itself and can effectively detect the fluctuations of magic, thereby avoiding the spell attacks of magicians.
It can be said that the Blessed Eagle is a powerful means well known to the temple and is one of the reasons for the temple's strength.
"OK."
The Knight's adjutant nodded, quickly left the base, and personally led his men and Fu Ying to scout the nearby area.
Everyone has arrived at the Northern Forest. Knowing that there are undead in the Northern Forest, the Knights Temple cannot be overly careful.
It was almost 10 o'clock in the morning when the Knights arrived at the Northern Forest.
Including the time for rest and replenishing energy, it may be afternoon.
Plus, it would take even longer to apply the magic potion necessary to enter the forest.
According to the information in the divine code, the power of the undead is stronger at night, so to be on the safe side, Eric does not plan to enter the North Forest today.
Let the Knights rest for most of the day and recover to their peak condition before entering the forest to encircle and wipe out these evil creatures!
"Let these despicable and evil creatures live a few more days."
Eric looked towards the forest and suddenly laughed at himself: "What am I talking about? The undead are dead people, how can they die? I should say that this is a purification bestowed by God."
This time, there are more than a hundred members of the Knights who came to the Northern Forest, and they are followed by some white-robed priests. Such strength is not the top in the temple, but it should not be underestimated.
In addition, Bishop Moria is stationed in a town near the Northern Forest, and he is surrounded by a group of two hundred knights and more clergy. Such power is enough to destroy a small country.
Bishop Moria attached great importance to this operation. Before setting out, he swore that he must destroy all the undead as his own achievement so that he would have the capital to compete for the next temple master.
However, he was as cautious as Knight Eric. Without knowing the details of the undead, Bishop Moria was unwilling to send all his troops into the Northern Forest.
Leaving a portion of the troops in the town can be used for both defense and attack, and at the same time, the faith and doctrines of the temple can be promoted and strengthened in this remote town, thus achieving the best of both worlds.
"Go and arrange to set up camp. We will rest here tonight."
Eric called the other lieutenants and gave them instructions on how to set up camp: "Be careful, the camp should be far away from the forest, and be careful not to be discovered by the monsters."
"Yes, sir."
The adjutant took the order and left.
…
The team set out to patrol the forest.
The knight's adjutant led twenty-three knights and three lucky eagles into the Northern Forest.
He knew his duty, which was to look for the presence of undead around and ensure the safety of the camp so that it would not be attacked by evil beings.
"Undead..."
The Knight's adjutant walked along the forest path, looking at the forest in the sun, and couldn't help but smile: "If the undead really left the North Forest, that would be a good thing."
"At least, we can achieve a great feat and possibly be granted divine arts and become great divine knights."
The words of the Knight's Adjutant made the knights around him laugh.
They had heard from the Palace Master a long time ago that even if undead appeared in the Northern Forest, they would probably be some weaker skeleton soldiers, because the stronger the undead, the more difficult it would be for them to pass through the plane channel.
Even the most powerful summoner in Esk cannot summon high-level undead.
They are just a group of skeleton soldiers, at most slightly stronger than ordinary people. If they encounter professional knights covered in armor, they are definitely no match.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the forest leaves and falls on the knights' armor, reflecting the metallic gleam, which is very beautiful.
They were dressed in white armor and held knight swords, looking heroic and majestic.
Every step the knights took was extremely heavy, and there was a layer of white glow on the surface of their armor. This was not sunlight, but a protective layer of fighting spirit left over from years of practicing fighting spirit.
As members of the temple's military force, the knights are confident that they can destroy all of God's enemies.
"You guys go over there, the rest of you go over there, I'll take the others this way, everyone please be careful, if you encounter a monster don't get involved unnecessarily ."
The knight's adjutant ordered the knight team to disperse and divide into several teams.
Anyway, there is no need to go deep into the forest, just patrol nearby. It will be more efficient to patrol with dispersed teams, and they can support each other at any time even if there is an emergency.
However.
In the shadows of the forest unknown to the knights, there were always several pairs of eyes quietly observing them.
…
"Brother Cong, a group of NPCs are coming in. They look like elite monsters, and their equipment looks pretty good."
"Obviously, this group of temple NPCs should be the content of the side quest. They are our enemies."
Wang Dali looked at Xu Ercong and asked, "How about it, do you want to have a fight?"
Xu Ercong lowered his head and thought, hesitantly: "There are still many temple NPCs outside the forest. If we attack this patrol team, we will definitely be attacked by their support."
"Why are you panicking?"
Wang Dali slapped his thigh and said, "Brother Cong, the opportunity is right in front of us, let's do it first!"
"If we can take on this group of people alone, we'll have all the side quests covered!"
"Even if we can't defeat this group of NPCs, we can still test their strength and make arrangements for the next step."
"The worst outcome is death."
Wang Dali made a final persuasion: "Also, we can arrange for a few ghost players not to participate in the battle. If we all die, the ghost players can take back the blue equipment dropped by the members, so that we won't lose anything."
Wang Dali completely dispelled Xu Ercong's concerns. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Let's do it!"
If you are afraid of death while playing a game, then just delete your account.
"That's right."
Wang Dali squinted his eyes and smiled. He had long wanted to try whether he could get equipment by killing NPCs in the wild.
After all, everyone is tired of killing monsters, and finally they can kill NPCs.
"Look at the equipment on these NPCs. They look like they are at least blue grade!"
I love the Berserker, with a small team, squatting and ambushing the scattered Knight patrol: "There are five NPCs here, everyone wait and listen to my command."
"The aliens will attack first. We will try to use backstabs. We will focus our fire on the last one first, and then slowly eat up the rest of the group."
"As you all know, this is a technical job, a hardcore operation. I'm recording it, and I'll be in the live broadcast room to explain the strategy. Please don't embarrass our army."
Hearing what I love Berserker said, a vampire player next to him patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, boss, I used to be Diamond 1 in the Virtual Alliance Canyon ! Don't worry about my operation, I'll take the lead!"
"Okay, then you go ahead ! Let me see the strength of Diamond One."
"okay."
The vampire smiled, and the other players looked at him with jealousy and envy.
As long as you can do something in the side quest, even if it's just killing an NPC, it will be counted as quest points, which will affect the final reward calculation after the quest is completed.
This is clearly explained in the side quests.
If the Legion of the Paradise of the Dead did not have its own rules, the players would have rushed out and hacked them when they saw this group of Temple Knights.
after all.
Every cut is a profit!
Make a lot of money with two cuts!
Three cuts and huge profit!
