Volume 16 Chapter 103 The Mission of the Superior God

Chapter 103 The mission of the superior god

"Ah... my neck!" Yeyue suddenly got up from the ground, but followed her and said with a puzzled face: "Strange, why do I feel like my body is filled with a very kind power? "

A Di Na also shouted: "It's strange, why do I have such dense water elements on my body? This concentration is almost higher than that of the underwater environment, but why doesn't the water element condense into water droplets?"

"Wow haha, Heart of Flame." Xiaofeng climbed out of the pit and screamed excitedly instead of crying out in pain. "The heart of fire actually condensed into my body. Did I just upgrade?"

"Don't make any noise, where are we?" I looked around in confusion, and then I found that I was back on the battlefield. What's even more strange is that my level has not been lowered, which means that just now Death has no effect.

I was waiting for the answers from the demon pets when I suddenly heard Ashford's voice. I looked up and found that Ashford was shouting something to me on the top of the city wall above me. But for some reason, the voice was so low that I could hardly hear it. But Ashford kept pointing forward, obviously letting me see that. side. I looked down in confusion and looked in the direction he was pointing, only to see enemies all over the mountains and plains rushing toward me.

"Damn, you want to take advantage of me while I'm just out of love?"

In fact, that's what the enemy thinks, but even if I can't reconcile for the time being, I'm not a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch. Of course, now is not the time to show off. Although my attributes have improved, my health and magic values ​​are all empty. This state is not suitable for combat. Anyway, the city wall was right behind me. I planned to go in and take shelter first, but when I walked to the city gate, I ran into trouble. No matter how hard I smashed it, the city gate never responded. Seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, I started to get anxious. "Damn, Ashford, you should open the door quickly!"

"Master, look above." Yeyue stood outside the city gate and pointed at the city wall and called me. I quickly ran out and looked up. I saw several of Ashford's men pulling a huge white cloth. Still writing.

"The city wall is blocked by an unknown force field, and I can't open the city gate!" After reading the words on the white cloth, I was immediately dumbfounded. shield? How could anyone possibly shield the city wall? I spread my wings and flew up to the top of the wall, hovering directly in front of Ashford. I actually found that there was really an extra layer on the wall. Although Ashford and I were face to face, I couldn't fly over no matter how hard I tried. , the entire city wall was blocked behind by an invisible force field.

Ashford shouted desperately at me, but after passing through this force field, his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. "Ziri. Go quickly. This force field was not created by us. Now we have no way to control it. You run away first! Let the enemy catch you and you will be finished!"

I nodded and shouted loudly inside: "I know, you guys be careful, I'll dodge first." After shouting, I landed down first and collected all the demon pets, and then I planned to run away, but I didn't take a step yet. When he went out, he was blocked by a door that suddenly appeared.

"Gate to the Earth?"

The thing blocking me was clearly the gate of the earth where I stored the summoned creature, but I didn't summon it at all just now, but it appeared on its own. Just when I was puzzled, the Gate of the Earth suddenly opened by itself, and the Gate of the Earth was standing behind the door looking at me. Before I could react, Mother Earth spoke first: "Come in, I have something to tell you." After that, she turned around and walked towards her palace.

Although I don’t know what Mother Earth wants to do with me, I have to run away now anyway, so I might as well hide there first. My health and magic power should be restored after the matter of Mother Earth is finished. about there. With my attributes, as long as my health and magic power are restored, no one can stop me from running away, so I am not afraid that I will be surrounded by people when I come out.

I walked into the gate of the earth with a feeling of doubt, and the gate closed automatically behind me. The enemies who chased me could only watch me disappear from their sight and were helpless. What was even more depressing was that they were now The strange force field was also discovered. As a result, the Iron Crusaders and the British and French allied forces could only curse each other through the barrier. They wanted to fight but could not touch each other at all.

While there was chaos outside Iron Cross City, I had already reached the palace of Mother Earth. I just didn't know what she wanted to tell me, but since it was a matter for a higher god, it was definitely not a trivial matter.

When I walked into the palace of Mother Earth, I was surprised to find that there were four water balloons as big as basketballs suspended in the hall. When I came in, one of the water balloons suddenly made a sound, and with the sound, circles appeared on the surface of the water balloon. The regular ripples feel as if they are changes in the frequency spectrum of the sound. "Ziri, do you know who we are?"

I shook my head. Circles of ripples also appeared on another water ball, and a very soft female voice also appeared. "You always remember my voice, right?"

"Empress Nuwa?" I have only heard this voice once before, but based on my memory, I can't mistake the voiceprint signal.

"It's great that you can still remember my voice. The other three here are the God of Fire, the God of Water, and the Great God Pangu. The reason why I see you here in this way is because the projection of our power in the human world will seriously affect the power of the human world. Balance, that’s why we borrowed Mother Earth’s private space to meet with you.”

I nodded to show my understanding and then asked: "Then what do you high-ranking gods want from me?"

The baritone from before appeared again, and I judged that this was probably Pangu's voice. "Did you just get killed by a strong guy?"

"That's right. I don't even know how I died!"

"That's normal, because the guy you're fighting against is Sifansas, the attendant of Space God Ramones."

"Higher God?"

"It's not a superior god, but a high-level servant god." Mother Earth explained to me: "We superior gods also need some servants to help us complete some things we have to do. For example, sometimes we need to deal with some mortal matters. Things, and our body and power projection are not very suitable to appear in the mortal world, but the Samurai Gods are much more suitable than us in this aspect. At least their influence on the order of the mortal world is much lower than ours, so those of us Higher gods will more or less have several attendant gods. However, strictly speaking, the attendant gods are not actually gods. They are just servants of gods. But compared to the self-proclaimed lower gods in the world, the high-level attendant gods are actually very few. Stronger. Their strength is only slightly lower than us upper gods, but they are still invincible to your human power system."

"No wonder I was killed in one encounter. It turned out that guy was a guy who could kill gods like us in seconds! But why did Sivansas attack me?"

"The one who attacked you was not Sifansas." Nuwa's voice made me very surprised. After all, I was killed after just one encounter with the blue light. After that, although many people saw the revealed Venus, I was already dead at that time. Dead, so I don't know this.

Pangu's voice explained: "Sifansas was manipulated by another will at that time. The creature that manipulated him was a woman, and she is your mortal adventurer."

The adventurers that NPCs refer to refer to players. Of course I was very surprised by this news. "Do you know who that woman is? Why can she 'manipulate' the power of Sivansas? Isn't this too exaggerated?"

One of the two water balloons that had been silent suddenly unfolded into a water curtain, and then the image of a woman appeared on the water curtain. Suddenly the voice of Water God Nu came from the water curtain. "This is the image of the woman I recorded at that time. As superior gods, we don't know you mortal adventurers. Apart from this image, we have nothing else."

"I know this woman."

"you know?"

"Well, her name is Venus. She is the most beautiful woman in Europe. We had a fight before."

"Now that you know who she is, it will be easy to handle." Pangu said: "It is not a good thing for the power of a higher god to appear in the world. We came to you to ask you to help us find out how she borrowed the power of the upper god. Force, report the situation to us and make sure they can't use this ability again, that's what we're going to ask you to do."

I immediately laughed when I heard this. "Well... they can summon the power of higher gods to fight. You have seen before that I was killed in one encounter. If they use that method to summon power again, I can't guarantee that I can complete the task, so this...? "Hey, there are not many opportunities to blackmail the higher gods. This is an opportunity that cannot be missed and will never come back.

"You're such a naughty bitch, you're just trying to get benefits before you do anything." Although Nuwa's words were reproachful, her tone didn't sound angry at all. "These are for you." A large box suddenly appeared in the air and fell to the ground with a bang. I quickly ran over and opened the box and looked inside. There seemed to be many layers inside the box, because the box, which seemed to be two feet deep, only had a thin layer of space when opened. This was once a tray. The tray was covered with a layer of blue velvet. There were six pits on it. In each pit was a blue glass marble, which seemed to appear through the transparent outer layer. You can see something like a nebula spinning inside the marbles.

"what is this?"

"This is a law bead made by the Space God. Once you encounter the other party again during the mission and borrow the power of the higher god, you can use this bead to throw him."

"Can this thing kill all the servants of a higher god? How powerful is it? Then should I hide immediately after throwing it away or just teleport away?"

"This is not a bomb. What are you hiding from?" Nuwa explained slightly angrily: "This is a law bead made by the space god Ramones. It contains an independent space law. The content of this law is to teleport the target. Come to us.”

I nodded and asked, "That means that if I hit my enemy with this thing, that person will be instantly teleported to you, right?"

"Yes. This way you don't have to worry about the other party having the power of a high-ranking Samurai God. According to our guess, those guys shouldn't be able to borrow our power. What they can borrow is the power of our Samurai God, so as long as you use this to smash When you reach the other party, that guy will be teleported to us and we will help you solve it. We don’t have to suppress our own power on our territory, so no one can threaten us."

I immediately nodded and said: "I'm very sure that no one of you can beat him, but the question is what if I can't hit the opponent? That guy is so powerful that I can't stop him for a second. First of all, Not to mention whether it can be smashed, maybe I’ll be killed before I even have time to take it out?”

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw those six glass marble-like things suddenly flying up and flying straight towards my head. Before I had time to react, they all hit my head and got in and disappeared completely. not see. Nuwa's voice then appeared. "I have bound the Law Orbs to your consciousness. You don't have to throw them with your hands. From now on, as long as you see or feel the target and want to use the Law Orbs, these Law Orbs will automatically fly out and attack you. The target you want, and they will have automatic tracking capabilities. As long as you determine the target, they will automatically catch up without you having to worry about it.”

"That's pretty much it. I don't think that guy is fast enough to kill me before I even have the consciousness to resist." After saying this, I immediately asked with a charming smile: "Well... what if this mission doesn't work?" Can I continue to use the rest after using it?”

Of course Nuwa didn't care about such trivial matters. She replied generously: "Of course. Anyway, we will allow you these six opportunities. No matter how much you have left after the mission is over, it will be at your disposal. In the future, you will have enemies you can't defeat." You can use the Pearl of Law to teleport him to the upper divine realm, and we will help you deal with your opponents, but you'd better remember that you only have six chances, and we won't give them to you again after you use them up."

"Understood." I smiled proudly as I picked up the tray containing the Pearl of Law. Sure enough, there is another layer below this layer of pallets. Contained in this layer is... a pocket watch? "What is this?" I picked up the pocket watch and asked in confusion.

"As you can see, this is a pocket watch."

"Can this thing be done? Is there a time limit for my mission?"

"No, this is not a clock for you." Nuwa explained: "This is a moment clock made by Mosana, the God of Time."

"A moment? What are you doing?"

Nuwa may have planned to explain the principle of this thing to me at first, but she stopped just after humming, and then paused for a while before continuing: "This is very troublesome to talk about. Anyway, as long as you know that this thing can make It’s okay as long as you and others are under different time flow rates.”

"Different time flow rates?"

"Yes. When you need to use it, just press the only button on it. You can see that there is only one needle on the dial. It usually stops. When you press the button, it will When you start walking, you will not feel anything at this time, and all objects within a radius of 10,000 meters near you will be at a time flow rate of only one quarter of the normal value, which means that the speed of all objects will change. It has become a quarter of the normal value. However, during this process, the pocket watch in your hand will continue to run, and the time flow rate will return to normal after its only hand has completed one revolution."

"I can roughly understand its function, but how long does it take for this needle to go around? Also, can I press it again right after it goes around?"

"It takes sixty seconds for this hand to complete one revolution. Every time it completes one revolution, you have to wait sixty seconds before pressing it again."

I nodded understandingly. "That's it. It takes effect for sixty seconds each time, and the cooling time is also sixty seconds, which is not bad. So is this thing given to me? Will it all belong to me from now on?"

"No." Nuwa only said one word and my face fell. "This is just for your temporary use. It will automatically expire when the task is completed."

"I thought it was given to me!" I complained depressedly: "You are destroying my enthusiasm for work. As long as I think that there will be no such good things to use as soon as I complete the task, I will definitely not be able to mention it. Come on, I won’t care if it affects work efficiency!”

Pangu's voice suddenly interjected: "Don't think that this mission is for free. The rewards we have prepared for you also mean there are punishments. From now on, no matter how hard you fight, you will not get any experience. value, and your experience value will decrease at the rate of losing one-tenth of your current level every day, which means that you will automatically lose a level every ten days, and this attribute will not disappear until you complete the task. .”

"Damn, you are trying to hurt me! I quit, isn't it okay if I don't accept the mission? You can find someone else to take it! I quit! Isn't it okay if I can't afford to play anymore?" Anyway, npc We can’t force players to take on missions, I’m not afraid of that!

Sure enough, Nuwa became anxious when she heard that I was quitting. "This is a restriction set to allow you to complete the task as quickly as possible. As long as you are fast enough, it doesn't matter. And we have also prepared a magic potion for you that can increase the level by ten levels at a time, as long as you can complete it within a hundred days. You can still make money from this task."

"That's too cruel!"

"Don't go too far." The fire god Amorad, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said: "The law of time is one of the three basic laws. No matter how much you slander us, we can't let you use it casually. If it hadn't been before The space magic beads given to you have a limit on the number of times, and we will not leave them for you to continue using after the task is completed. After all, our power will be unbalanced as long as it intervenes in the human world."

"But you can't just let the horses run without feeding them?"

"Who said we didn't have enough money?" Nu's voice also appeared. "You can open the lower layer of the box and take a look."

I quickly removed the tray on which the pocket watch was placed, and saw a yellow gemstone flashing with golden arcs underneath.

"What is this?"

"This is the larvae of the Thunder King, a creature unique to the divine realm. Since it begins to absorb the power of the divine realm from birth, it is considered a very powerful creature in the human world."

"How strong can it be?"

"We can't say for sure because no one has tamed it before."

"What? No one has tamed it before? Are you saying you are not sure whether this thing can be 'manipulated'?"

"That's not true." Nuwa's voice explained: "These are creatures from the God Realm, and we, the higher gods, will not tame these things, so we don't know much about their actual combat power. But you can rest assured. . These things are relatively troublesome even in our world, so they should be very powerful in the human world."

As soon as I heard that this thing could be considered a troublesome thing in the God Realm, I immediately became energetic, but an idea quickly calmed me down. I took the gem and carefully looked at the water ball representing Nuwa and asked, "Isn't this also something that needs to be taken back after completing the mission?"

"No need for this." Nuwa's voice replied firmly: "This is a reward for you, and it will be used as your magic pet from now on."

"Haha, I'll be relieved then." After getting the affirmative answer, I immediately cut my finger excitedly and dripped blood on the gem. Who knew that the lightning on the gem actually evaporated my blood? "Fuck, isn't it?"

Nuwa's voice appeared again. "Don't be anxious. The King of Thunder is a very powerful creature, even a larvae is not so easy to conquer."

"Then how can I turn him into a demon pet?"

"As long as you remove your defense and grab it with your hands, it will resist with electric shocks. You can't resist or let go of this process, you can only wear it out. In the end, if you are electrocuted first, then what? Needless to say, if you can hold on until it uses up all its stored electrical energy without dying, it will recognize your strength. At this time, you can succeed if you add more blood."

"What? Is there such a troublesome process?" It's not fun to remove the defense and get electric shock. It's almost like touching the switch at home, but it's a pity that I still have to do it. I looked at the four suspended water balls again, and finally Mother Earth standing aside. After Mother Earth nodded to me, I carefully took off the gloves of the magic dragon suit and pinched them with my hands. Got that gem.

"Ah...!" The moment I touched the gem, it was sucked up by itself like a magnet touching an iron bar. Then I felt waves of electric current rushing into my body crazily. The taste is really...

The high-voltage current generated by the strong voltage instantly passed through my body. My whole body shook like a vibrator, and a burst of green smoke began to rise quickly from my body, which was also mixed with the smell of barbecue. . Although it felt like a long time to me, it actually only took five or six seconds before the current on the time stone disappeared. I just grabbed the gem and fell straight down with the green smoke. The mother of the earth next to me seemed to be holding back a smile. As for the four balls... I can't help it, I can't see the real body, but I'm sure they are also stealing it. happy.

"Pfft...ah...!" I opened my mouth and spit out a cloud of smoke, and then I controlled my limbs like a baby who was only a few months old and forced myself to sit up. The sequelae of strong electric shock are stiffness of limbs and loss of coordination. Anyway, now I feel as if my body has not moved in several years, and everything is as hard as wood. "This...ah...is...the power of thunder...the king of thunder?" The electric current caused my facial muscles to become unsound. Now I feel a little speechless when I speak, but I am obviously recovering after saying a few words. .

Nuwa's voice appeared again. "This is just a small test, you have passed it now. Hurry up and put some blood on it."

I struggled to get up from the ground, then bit my finger with my teeth and dripped blood on the gem. In fact, I originally planned to use eternity to cut a small wound, but now that my limbs are weak, I was afraid that I would accidentally cut off all my fingers, so I had to bite it with my teeth. Although it hurt, at least I wouldn't lose all my fingers.

This time there was no situation like before. The blood dripped onto the gem and instantly penetrated into it. Then the gem suddenly snapped and flashed an arc again. I shook my hand and the gem flew out on its own. After landing on the ground, the gem began to vibrate crazily, and the amplitude became larger and faster, and the speed became faster and faster. In the end, there was only a pop sound, and the thing suddenly exploded and a ball of yellow light popped out of it. The ball of light suddenly flashed and disappeared in front of us, then suddenly appeared at the corner of the hall, then flashed again and reached another corner. After flashing back and forth a few times, the thing suddenly appeared in front of me and stopped completely. It wasn't until this moment that I saw clearly what it was.

The creature in front of him has a body structure similar to that of a human, and it obviously walks upright. It looks like a human wearing tight-fitting armor, but its head is obviously larger than a human's head, and it is also long and narrow, looking like a bag. A bird's head covered with armor. There is also a circle of not too long armor hanging on the edge of his head, which looks like a circle of wind chimes.

There are long blades on the back of both elbows of this guy, and his claws are also very long. It seems that he is a creature mainly focused on melee combat. In addition, in addition to the above characteristics, this guy is also different from humans, that is, he has a tail on his back, but it is not very long, but there are many yellow crystals growing on it, which looks like something Special purpose.

"The King of Thunder salutes you my respected master." This guy can actually talk and is obviously very intelligent.

"Well, I will call you Lei from now on. I have something to do now. You should get familiar with your companions first." I said and sent Lei into the Phoenix Dragon space, while I took a rough look at his attributes. . There are not many attributes of thunder, and there are only three that stand out. The first one is that this guy has a constant lightning strike effect, that is, whether it is active or passive, as long as he comes into contact with the enemy, the enemy will be shocked. Fortunately, this attribute can automatically determine whether it is the enemy or not, so I Don't worry about your own people being electrocuted. Another important attribute is speed. This guy's moving speed is actually the speed of light. Sounds scary, right? But if you look closely, you will find that it is not as exaggerated as you think.

On the surface, if a person has the movement speed of light, then he can ravage his opponent at will. Anyway, at his speed, the opponent is almost stationary, and he can hit him how he wants. However, the actual situation is far from ideal. Lei does have the ability to move at the speed of light, but the problem is that because his own speed is the speed of light, he cannot receive any sensory signals while moving. In other words, he is basically blind and deaf when moving, so he cannot act like We also walk around a curve to attack behind the enemy. He can only stand in one place and look at a target location first, then move to that point at the speed of light, stop and reconfirm the surrounding environment and determine the next moving target, and then enter again. The speed of light begins to move. If he wants to attack the enemy, he must constantly switch back and forth between the speed of light and stillness. This results in his actual combat speed not being the speed of light. As long as the opponent reacts quickly enough, he can still avoid his attacks. Of course, the speed at which Lei switches between moving and stationary is very scary. Therefore, based on my experience, except for a few experts, most people cannot keep up with Lei's speed, especially when Lei moves in a straight line over long distances. will have an absolute advantage.

In addition to the above two attributes, Lei also has a relatively ordinary attribute, but actual calculations will reveal that this is actually Lei's strongest attribute. This attribute is energy absorption. As long as he is around, he will naturally absorb the free energy in the space. The effect is that all enemy personnel will consume an additional 10% of magic power or fighting spirit when releasing spells or fighting spirit. In addition, this absorption is not like a bottomless pit. . After Lei absorbs energy, his magic power will rise rapidly. When his magic power storage capacity is full, he will start to transfer magic power to me or my other summons. He can even directly transfer energy to others as long as I designate a target. . To put it simply, thunder is a mobile magic battery, and it is a mobile battery that is specially charged secretly by enemies.

After checking the attributes, I couldn't bear to call Lei out immediately to test his abilities. After all, it was not a good idea to have five high-level gods waiting for me together.

"This King of Thunder is pretty good. I accept this mission."

"You guy!" Nu continued: "Look at the next floor, our gifts are not finished yet!"

"Anything else?" Since the upper floors took up quite a lot of space, I always thought there was nothing below. Who knew there was something underneath the box? After pulling out the last layer of board, what appeared under the box was not a gift but a big hole. Later, I lifted the entire box from the ground and checked the bottom of the box. It turned out that the bottom was fine, but after putting the box down and looking in from the top, I could see a hole extending downward. The depth was absolutely More than the depth of the box itself should be. "Is this a space passage?"

Mother Earth came over and said: "This is the space passage I made for you. When this box is placed on the ground, the space will be connected. You only need to climb down this hole to enter another space. There is The training area we jointly created for you."

"Training area? Does it have double experience? Or are the monsters easy to kill and have high experience?"

"No, you can kill anything in this area without any experience."

"Huh? Then what do I need it for?"

"Although it does not require experience, it can directly strengthen your corresponding attributes."

"What is the corresponding attribute?"

"To put it simply, it means directly strengthening your basic attributes. There are also some intelligent creatures in this space. You can receive various tasks from them. As long as you complete the tasks, you will be rewarded. Generally speaking, killing monsters will directly increase your basic attributes, and the specific increase and how to increase it depends on what monster you kill. Just like the creatures here have corresponding experience points, the ones over there Creatures have corresponding attribute enhancement values. For example, there is a rabbit-like creature over there, which is the lowest level creature. For every ten rabbits you kill, your basic attack power will increase by 1."

After hearing what Mother Earth said, I immediately asked: "You mean if I can kill a billion rabbits, then I can increase my attack power by 100 million points for nothing?"

"Correct. But rabbits add physical damage. If you want to increase other damage, you need to find special creatures to kill. As for the tasks received from the intelligent creatures over there, the basic attributes will not be added but It directly provides you with various basic or special attributes, or it may be actual material rewards, such as equipment and forging materials."

"Understood." After listening to Mother Earth's explanation, I finally understood. The rules of this place are quite simple. Combat is equal to adding attributes, it's that simple, and what's added here is not experience, so it doesn't affect my upgrade in the main game scene here, and it can make me much better than players of the same level. But I always like to squeeze out the remaining value of everything, so I asked again: "Um... may I ask if there are any mineral deposits here? And will my enemies run in?" "

"This space is specially prepared for you, so except for you and the summoned creatures you command, you are not allowed to bring any creatures from outside into this space. There are also mineral deposits in this space, and you can mine them without any problem, but As long as you mine it yourself, others can never help you. Even if you want to use a lifeless golem, it won't work, because the law of the world here is that except for the fruits of labor obtained by yourself and your summoned creatures, everything else will leave. Space disappears in an instant.”

It seems that the hope of using this place as a safe rear area for our guild has been shattered, but there is no need to worry about this. At least the bases owned by the Frost Rose Alliance so far are relatively safe, and even without these functions, they can only enhance the attributes. The characteristic of sex is already beyond all the previous conditions.

"Okay, I've seen all the rewards. Now let's talk about the mission." I said to several high-ranking gods: "Your request is for me to find the other party's method of action and stop it, right?"

"If you can stop it, stop it yourself. If it doesn't work, you can ask us for help." Another white bead emerged from Pangu's water polo. "This is the stun ball I prepared for you. If you can complete the task by yourself, I will give this thing to you as an extra reward. If you can't solve it by yourself and need us to take action, then I will take back this thing after the task is over. ."

"Understood. If there is nothing else, can I leave? I want to start this task right away."

"Why did you suddenly become so active?" Vulcan asked me in surprise.

"One-tenth of the experience points will be lost in one day, why don't I hurry up?"

"Go quickly. Remember, the sooner you complete the task, the more benefits you will get." When Nuwa's voice came, I was already near the gate of the earth. I lose one tenth of my experience every day. This restriction is like a guillotine. The same thing is dangling above my head. If there is trouble in the execution of this task and it is delayed for a few more days, my level will be ruined. For most players in "Zero", level ten is nothing. After all, the basic level of "Zero" is one thousand. In other words, compared with other online games, "Zero" simply consumes more for each level. The time is relatively much less. But the problem is that this rule does not apply to me. The main reason is that I am already level 1,123. The experience points required to advance to another level after reaching this level are higher than those of players before level 1,000. Level 500 requires more experience. It can be said that after reaching level 1,000, my level basically does not increase through leveling up.

After playing "Zero" for such a long time, I have long discovered the core setting of "Zero". The basic concept of this game has the existence of the law of the jungle, and the basic structure of the game has the underlying idea of ​​superiors and inferiors. On the surface, it seems that "Zero" is fair to everyone. Although some people are more lucky, it is luck after all. There seems to be nothing unfair in the basic concept, but the actual situation is that "Zero" has been unfair from the beginning. People are divided into three, six or nine levels, and different game goals are clearly set for each type of people. Just like my current experience value. Ever since I passed level 1,000, my experience bar has suddenly grown exponentially. Now, even if I can summon as many creatures as dogs, it still takes me several months of continuous leveling to get the experience points required for each level. I hope to level up. If an average player has reached level 1,000 and can only bring two or three decent magic pets by himself, it is estimated that he can level up a level in a year, which means you are diligent and hardworking. It can be seen that upgrading after level 1,000 is not based on leveling at all, but there are not only people after level 1,000, but I am not the only one. The upgrade of those of us who are above level 1,000 actually relies on two things - legion battle experience + special tasks.

As long as you look at the game level rankings, you will find that any player above level 1,000 must be a guild boss if he is not a lone hero with extremely powerful combat power. When most people hear these two identities, they will think that it is normal for these two people to upgrade quickly. After all, one is very strong and the other has the support of the guild, but this is not the actual situation. Super powerful lone heroes are not able to continue to upgrade after reaching level 1,000 because of their strong fighting ability and fast killing of monsters. The key to their ability to upgrade is that these people often receive all kinds of weird and special tasks, and these The mission is either to multiply the experience value by more than ten times or the final reward will directly allow you to level up. As for people below level 1,000, you should not even think about this kind of mission. It is not arranged for you at all. You will accept it as soon as it comes. If it doesn’t arrive, it won’t be completed even if it’s received the second time. As for the guild boss, this one is even simpler. In guild wars and national wars, the guild boss not only has special experience to gain, but after the war, the system will automatically calculate the total experience gained by all players in the guild in the battle, and then divide a certain proportion of the experience based on the guild's guild level. The value is added to the guild leader's head. This experience is additional and will not reduce the experience of players in the guild, and the higher the guild level, the more cost-effective it is. For example, in our Frost Rose Alliance, the ratio is as high as three thousandths. Sound like little? But think about how big our guild is? After a war, the two sides killed tens of millions of NPCs and players, which was considered an ordinary battle. It was normal for large-scale battles to involve hundreds of millions of individual combat units. How much experience is gained from killing so many enemies? Three thousandths of it is enough to push a level 20 newcomer who has just left the novice village to level 800 or above in one go. However, for me, these experience points are not enough to even level up. Now basically our guild must participate in three relatively large-scale battles in a row before I can hope to advance to the next level, which is considered very fast in the world.

It can be seen from these aspects that the game content that we high-end players accept is different from that of ordinary low-level players. Leveling up and gaining experience basically means little to us. It is impossible to become a being above level 1,000 by just leveling up and killing monsters on your own. You must get special experience to have any hope.

Based on the above reasons, I take my current experience very seriously. Losing one tenth a day is about the same as an average player losing two hundred levels a day. How can I dare to be lazy with such a severe punishment? Moreover, the supplements given by Nuwa in the end were only ten levels in total. If I were delayed for more than a hundred days, not only would there be no benefit at all, but I would also have to lose experience. That would be a loss!

With great pressure, I quickly left the Gate of the Earth and prepared to find Venus to find out how she had borrowed the power of the High-level Goddess. If Pangu and the others hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about the blue light that hit me. It was actually controlled by Venus. Her combat power at that time was definitely more than ten times that of mine, otherwise she would not have been able to kill me in two seconds. I've been in the game for so long and I've died a few times, but it's rare that I get killed so easily.

As soon as I came out of the gate of the earth, I ran into a player head-on. It was very unexpected that the player was knocked down by me. It had been more than half an hour since I entered the Gate of the Earth. I originally thought that the British and French forces would have withdrawn due to the protective barrier, but the actual situation was exactly the opposite. Not only did the British and French forces not evacuate, but they moved all their troops to the front line. What's even more terrifying is that they actually pushed cannons, which should obviously be last, under the city wall. The muzzles of many cannons were less than a hundred meters away from the city wall. In terms of the range of the cannon, this distance is basically equivalent to the cannon fighting with the bayonet. But Ashford was not someone to be trifled with. This guy also moved all the cannons in the city to the edge of the city wall, and also temporarily made some fixed-mounted cannons to fire at the enemies under the city wall. You must know that cannons are always fired upwards, and it is difficult to aim at enemies who are close at hand. Moreover, because the Iron Crusaders' cannon is on the top of the city wall, if there is no special fixing frame, the entire cannon will be fired. There is no way to attack the enemy under the city wall if you lean over. However, Ashford was able to come up with such a bracket thanks to the fact that they and our guild used rifled guns. If the old smoothbore guns were fired from such an angle, it would probably not be possible before the gunner could open the gun door. As soon as the gun was closed, the shell had already slipped out of the front chamber. Of course, you don't have to worry about this with magic crystal cannons, but they are the least able to shoot at close range. After all, those guys are too powerful. If one shot from such a close distance, the enemy will be finished, and the city wall will be finished.

My sudden appearance shocked the surrounding players, and we both reacted at the same time. The player who bumped into me grabbed a torch next to him and threw it at him. This guy was obviously setting up camp just now. The British and French forces probably planned to use this opportunity to move the entire military camp under the city wall, so that they could wait for a barrier. After disappearing, the charge process can be omitted and the siege can be started directly. In this case, the casualties will be reduced a lot, but they obviously did not expect that I would suddenly appear among them at this time.

I didn't pay much attention to the behavior of the player in front of me. This guy was just an ordinary player. I kicked him out as soon as he touched the torch. Turning back to look at the city wall, it was obvious that the barrier had not disappeared. I spread my wings and flapped my wings hard and immediately flew into the air. Taking advantage of the high altitude, he glanced at the battlefield ahead. As far as he could see, there were contiguous military camps. A large number of troops were lined up so densely that their number could not be estimated at all.

I was observing the enemy's situation when a red stream of light suddenly shot from the distance. I turned my head and caught the red light. It turned out to be a double-headed spear. With a slight exertion on his hand, the spear immediately bent into a figure 7 from the middle. Throwing away the spear, I flapped my wings and flew towards several bright spots in the distance. Those bright spots were obviously masters, and the target was me. They were faster than I was, and the two sides met quickly. Because we are not flying very high, and the people below are all members of the British and French forces, the opponent only dares to attack me with precise single-target skills, but I don't have so many scruples, using various powerful surface-to-surface destructive attacks. Spells were thrown everywhere. Although they didn't do anything to the masters who came up to them, they knocked the British and French troops below off their feet. On the top of Iron Cross City, all the Iron Crusaders players were excitedly watching me ravage the British and French allied forces. They were watching the enemies on the city wall but could not fight, so they could only worry. Cheering for me was the only thing they could do now. things.

While the fighting was going on here, an unexpected incident occurred on the city wall. However, this incident quickly triggered a full-scale melee. Originally it was just a group of Iron Crusaders players cheering me on, but then someone got too excited and raised the weapon in his hand above his head and waved it around. I don't know if his hand slipped or something happened, but the weapon in that guy's hand was anyway. The weapon fell suddenly. As a result, the weapon flew forward out of the city wall and fell into the British and French forces below. Moreover, because the people below were too dense and the tomahawk was large, it unexpectedly hit a siege ladder that was being built. On the head of the construction auxiliary player, and unexpectedly, he accidentally made a critical attack, killing the guy with an axe. Then the player who dropped his weapon on the wall was stunned, because he saw the prompt to kill the enemy, and the system actually judged that what he just did was considered throwing damage, and it also killed the enemy in seconds. Of course, dying on the battlefield is not a big deal, but maybe killing someone means... "The barrier is gone!" I don't know who shouted, and then people on both sides suddenly grabbed their weapons crazily and started fighting. The gunners directly fired the cannons that had been adjusted and loaded with shells, and for a while there was a roar. Because the British and French allied forces adopted a close-range shooting method, the hit rate of the artillery shells was as high as 100%, and the power was frightening. The rubble flying on the city wall almost knocked down the entire section of the city wall. However, God is not as good as God. I originally thought that with this intensive bombardment, my own people could climb to the top of the city. Who knew that the barrier disappeared at the wrong time? What stood under the city wall were not the front-line troops but the engineering soldiers who were building stairs. The original idea of ​​the British and French coalition forces was to build a row of steps outside the city wall while the Iron Crusaders could not attack. After the barrier disappeared for a while, they could ignore the existence of the city wall and rush up the stairs to fight with the Iron Crusaders. . However, this barrier disappeared too early. Less than half of the stairs were built when the sudden shelling caused the city wall to collapse. A large amount of rubble smashed all the engineering troops under the city wall. The remaining engineering troops ran back crazily and They rushed to mess up their forwards, but the result was that they failed to rush up to the city wall immediately after the bombardment, but were pushed back by the cannons on the city wall.

Although they suffered a temporary loss, the British and French forces bombed the city wall into disarray, and the most important thing is that the city gate that was under special care has been blasted open. Now it is completely blocked by the elite troops of the Iron Crusaders. Only the gate can barely keep all the enemies out of the city.

Ashford was worried about the situation at hand. It seemed fair to say that the barrier only separated people on both sides. However, the actual situation was that it blocked the section where the British and French allied forces had to sacrifice a large number of troops to pass through. The distance was blocked, and as a result, the British and French forces reached the city without any effort, and even pulled up heavy weapons. However, although the war situation was unfavorable, Ashford could not give up. This was their base camp. Once it fell, it would be a big problem that would break their muscles and bones.

"Purple Sun." I suddenly heard Ashford's voice coming from the city's loudspeaker array. Although he only called me once, I knew what he meant, because the situation on the city wall was obviously in danger.

"Damn it, there's nothing I can do if you call me! I'm the only one on such a long wall, where do you want me to guard?" No. I suddenly thought of a way that might help Ashford, but the investment would be a bit high. But thinking about it on the other hand, once Iron Cross City is lost, not to mention Ashford's loss, even our collateral losses will be huge, and once the British and French allied forces are free to participate in other Several battlefields, then our entire grand strategy may be affected. This kind of indirect loss is not something I can bear.

This time our guild is going to war in so many places around the world. Among them, the strongest enemy is Europe, and the current Iron Cross City is our nail in Europe. With the help of this fortress-like city, the Iron Crusaders dragged the British and French forces to the European battlefield with a relatively small number of troops. Because of the existence of this nail, they did not dare to leave Europe, because once their hometown was taken away, then Even if you win in other battlefields, you will lose much more than you gain. Once Europe is secured, the British and French forces can be freed to participate in battles in Asia or the Americas. In this case, our battlefields will definitely be unbearable, and such a domino-like chain reaction will definitely cause us to completely lose battlefields around the world. initiative.

After weighing the pros and cons, I decided it was worth using up some of my treasures, so I dug out what the sacred beasts of China had provided me.

Basalt armor, white tiger fur, red bird fire feathers, green dragon reverse scales, white jade unicorn horns, gold dragon teeth, emerald green claws, evil-killing unicorn jade. Looking at the eight items in my hand, I hesitated for a long time before finally putting back the seven items except the Xuanwu Armor. These eight tokens come from eight holy beast bosses. In addition to allowing me to transform into one of these eight for a short period of time, I can also summon their true bodies to help me fight. Transformation requires magic power. As long as the magic power is enough, it can be used indefinitely. However, with my magic power, the transformation state can only last for a few seconds at most. In comparison, the power of summoning the main body is much greater, because the summons is calculated on a per-time basis. Yes, they will not go back as long as the mission is not completed, but there is only one chance to summon. If I summon their body, I will never be able to summon them again, so I cherish this only one opportunity very much. Otherwise, I would have taken it out and used it in the previous situation.

Holding the tortoise shell-like Xuanwu armor in my hand, I bit my finger open and wrote the word Xuanwu on it with blood. Then the ground below me suddenly shook violently, and all the British and French soldiers in a large area around me were shaking. They were so shaken that they could not stand firmly, and many people fell to the ground. After the vibration lasted for a few seconds, the ground suddenly began to bulge upwards, and soon a large earth bag with a height of more than two meters and a radius of more than ten meters rose up. The top of the earth bag suddenly burst, and Xuanwu, who transformed into a human form, rose up from the broken earth bag. .

When Xuanwu came out, he looked around first and then asked, "What do you want me to do?"

I pointed to Iron Cross City. "Just protect him and don't get attacked."

Xuanwu looked back at Iron Cross City, and then said: "You will be at a disadvantage if you do this. Are you sure you want me to do this?"

I was very surprised by Xuanwu's words. "Suffering a loss?"

Xuanwu nodded. "The summoning opportunity we give you is only once. Protecting this city is not a big deal, so it is not worth wasting an opportunity on such a thing."

I didn't expect Xuanwu to say such words. Not only did I wonder why calling him to help was a waste, but I also wondered why he told me it was a waste. If an ordinary person would definitely complete the agreement and end the summons, he instead helped me think about it. I have to say that Xuanwu is really an honest man!

"Well... although I know it's not difficult for you to protect this place, do I have any other way without summoning you? There are too many enemies. No matter how powerful I am, I can't turn into a wall to block so many people?"

Xuanwu thought for a while and then said to me: "Let's do this! I'll give you an idea. I'll leave in a while and you can handle it yourself. If I don't take action this time, just pretend you didn't summon me! I'll give you this chance. Saved.”

"Huh?" My jaw almost dropped. "This is possible too?"

"Anyway, it's just a promise. Just take it naturally." Xuanwu patted me on the shoulder and said, "After I leave, you use my armor to temporarily transform, and then use the power of earth to transform the city." Wouldn’t it be enough to raise the entire area where it is located?”

yes! Why didn't I think of that? After hearing Xuanwu's words, I couldn't help but pat myself on the back. Although Xuanwu is an honest person, honesty does not mean stupidity. He is just kind-hearted and practical. When he really needs to use his brain, he is no worse than others. Although my magical transformation can only last for a few seconds, Xuanwu's specialty is earth spells, so non-offensive spells such as raising the ground are actually very simple for him. The current problem of Iron Cross City is not that there are no personnel to defend it, but that the city wall has been blown down and there is no place to defend. I just need to transform into Xuanwu and raise the city wall to the ground. It will be equivalent to adding a new layer of city wall, then restore it. Once it reaches its original state, it is not difficult to maintain it at all.

After determining the method, I said goodbye to Xuanwu with great gratitude, then took out the Xuanwu armor and poured all the magic power in my body into it. There was a flash of yellow light around me, and I appeared directly on the battlefield in the human form of Xuanwu. There's no time to waste now. The transformation can only last for a few seconds, so you have to be quick. I stretched out one hand in the direction of the city, then made a dragging gesture with my palm facing up, and shouted: "Get up." I heard a boom, and a cloud of light suddenly exploded from the outside of the Iron Cross City wall. With the dust flying, everyone saw that the city wall in the smoke was rapidly growing upwards.

In fact, what everyone sees is only the foundation part of the city wall. It is not that the city wall is growing taller, but because the entire ground is rising, the foundation is brought up with it, so to outsiders it looks like the city wall is growing. . In fact, what grew was not exactly a city wall. As the foundation of the city wall completely rose above the ground, a dense layer of compressed soil began to appear underneath. It was only then that the British and French forces realized that it was not the city wall that was growing taller, but the entire city.

Since many members of the British and French allied forces had already invaded the city gate and some small sections of the city wall at this time, there were now people everywhere along the dividing line of the city wall. As the city rose, these people suddenly lost their backup and were all destroyed by the people inside. The Iron Crusader player rushed to the wall and was eventually pushed down.

It took me five seconds to lift the entire city upwards by more than seven meters. In addition, the original city wall did not completely collapse, so the actual protective wall height of Iron Cross City is now more than ten meters, and the enemies below cannot reach it at all. The Iron Crusaders personnel could only worry below. After completing the lifting, I did not exit the transformation immediately. Instead, I used a Xuanwu-created spell - hardening - on the soil layer under the city wall. This spell can instantly turn loose soil into a hard material like granite. When I use this spell, it turns all the raised ground into rocks. This way, even if the British and French coalition forces continue to bombard me, it should be able to withstand it for a while.

After completing the spell, my transformation time had just ended. Without my magic power, I didn't dare to hang around outside anymore, so I quickly spread my wings and flew to the city wall. Ashford ran over to me with an excited expression and hugged me, shouting: "You are so great, Ziri, I love you!"

"Stop, stop, I'm not interested in men." I joked while pushing Ashford away, and then I pointed at the British and French troops outside. "Do you know where the blue light that hit me before went?"

"You mean Venus?" Ashford's answer surprised me.

"Do you know that the blue light is Venus?" Ashford understood my situation as soon as he heard my question, and then he told me what happened after I died and before I was resurrected. It can be regarded as understanding the situation. After working on it for a long time, everyone here knew that the light was Venus, but I was the last to know! "Do you know where she is now?" As long as I find Venus and find out how she uses the High Acolyte, my mission will be half completed.
