Light in Abyss
I noticed that the monster was suddenly attacked by a mysterious tentacle, and I didn't dare to behave like a mouth in the crowd anymore. Although I am not afraid of those monsters, Hongdou is just an ordinary player, so if I encounter something, I will have no problem. She was doomed. While the lobster-like monster was caught, I quickly summoned Bailang, and then threw Hong onto his back. "pay close attention."
Upon hearing my prompt, Hongdou... quickly hugged Bailang's neck, while Bailang quickly rushed back along the way we came. I originally planned to run with Bailang, but after thinking about it, I deliberately lagged a little behind them to prevent the monster that had just captured the big lobster from extending its tentacles to attack us.
Running along the passage back to the cave where the plague beast was hidden before, Hong Douban was obviously stunned when she passed the pile of plague beast corpses. However, because the white wave speed was very fast, she soon lost sight of those corpses, but She still cast a surprised look at me. In her opinion, the Plague-Tired Beast is already a very difficult monster to deal with. If it were not so lucky, it would be attacked by surprise like she just did. It may even be killed directly, and even if it is not attacked by a sneak attack, with the attributes of the Weeping Slender Beast and its flying advantage, as long as there are three of them, it is enough to kill an ordinary player. But there were more than three corpses in the pile just now? More than thirty! Being able to kill all such a large group of monsters in such a short time, Hongdou thought that no master he had ever seen could do this. It wasn't until now that she truly understood what it meant to be number one on the combat power list.
In fact, there are a lot of people like Hongdou in the game who don't take the masters on the power list seriously. This is not an isolated phenomenon at all, but a common phenomenon. Most players think that everyone is a player. At most, if you level up more diligently, you will have better luck, and if you have good equipment, you will get a higher level. But after all, it is within the limits of the game, so the masters are only a little better than the average person. It can be said that this perception is not wrong. In fact, compared with ordinary players, masters do have higher levels and better equipment. Of course, there is another difference that everyone knows but is unwilling to admit, that is, the combat awareness of masters is far better than that of ordinary players. However, although masters only have these three specialties than ordinary people, they are far better than ordinary players, because combat is not about addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, or subtraction of large numbers. Ten is only one larger than nine, but on the battlefield, this difference means that nine will die and ten will be fine. And the dead Nine can't do anything, but Ten can kill more Nines, so the final result is that Ten can defeat Nine plus Nine plus Nine all the way to Nine. Of course, you can say that if a group of nine people join together, the total is nine parties, which is definitely bigger than ten, but the question is a game, not a math test paper. When ten kills nine, it doesn't mean that ten is still ten. There are rewards in the game. After ten kills nine, it becomes eleven. When eleven kills another nine, it becomes twelve or even thirteen. And the nines couldn't have thought of beating up the ten in the first place. We can only let Ten continue to grow. By the time everyone realizes that they need to unite, Ten has become hundreds of millions. Although the nine people form the nine parties, they are still not as big as a billion. This is the accumulation of gaps.
What most players today think is that masters also have one head and two hands, and they have to practice level by level. So although they know that they are only nine, they think that the masters are only ten. Little do they know that the masters rely on their own Your efforts and luck turned into ten when everyone was nine in the early stage, and nine turned into nine hundred in the later stage. Ten has turned into one hundred thousand, and the gap has been unknowingly enlarged to an insurmountable level.
In fact, nine and ten are just representatives. The real player strength is divided very finely, and among them there are middle elements like nine point one, nine point one two and even nine point one three one. Of course, the greater the gap between them in the early stage, the greater the distance will be in the later stage. Not to mention the top beings like me and the Gunslinger, it can be said without exaggeration. Each of the top 200 players in the world's combat power list can easily kill seven or seven times in a circle surrounded by hundreds of ordinary players. And those like us who are in the top 50, as long as we don't run into the combat power list. The top 1,000 masters can completely ignore the number of ordinary players. When the strength reaches a certain level, the human wave tactics lose their meaning. After all, we are not just standing there and letting people attack us. Once we move, it will only be a matter of time before we kill a large number of ordinary players.
Bailang ran to the entrance of the cave with Hong Bean on his back and stopped. He was just more adapted to the tunnel environment and couldn't fly. There was no place to draw strength from the cliff that went straight up and down. Even Bailang would definitely not be able to climb it. After I ran to the entrance of the cave, I took Bailang back, hugged Hongdou and planned to fly up. Who knew that when I opened my wings, I saw a red light group suddenly appeared in front of me, and then shot straight towards me. "Holy Shield." Jingjing appeared in front of me instantly, and the opened Holy Shield perfectly blocked the magic attack. However, we are very strong, but the rocks under our feet cannot withstand it. With a bang, the platform extending out of the rock wall suddenly broke and rolled down the cliff. Hongdou and Jingjing and I immediately fell down with the platform. However, as soon as our net dropped a few meters, we spread our wings and flew again. What we didn't expect was that a red light group suddenly appeared above our heads again, and this time its target was not us, but the few above us. A rock wall ten meters away. That section of the rock wall is obviously similar to the platform. It was so fragile that a magical bombardment instantly exploded the rock wall, and countless rubbles rained down on us like a torrential rain. "Pin Yi saw that something was wrong. Li Xuan flew to me and hugged Hong Dou and me. Ping Liejiu's wings overlapped with mine and rolled together, forming a huge egg-shaped structure. At the same time, Jing Li Jing also put the holy shield on her head. Covering the only gap, she then used her super skill. "Absolute barrier. "
Unlike my absolute barrier, Jingjing's absolute barrier is not a skill attached to the equipment, but her own skill. It can be said that both have their own strengths. My absolute barrier only lasts thirty seconds, which is a little short, but the effect is perfect. What is said to be an absolute barrier is really an absolute barrier. Even if there is a big collision between heaven and earth and I happen to be standing at the impact point of the meteorite and the earth, as long as the thirty seconds are not over, I will definitely be fine. Relatively speaking, Jingjing's absolute barrier is not that abnormal. Her skill is said to be an absolute barrier, but in fact it is not absolute. Its defense needs to be based on Jingjing's magic value. If this absolute barrier does not suffer any blow, it will be no problem to support it for ten or eight hours with Jingjing's total magic power, but once it is hit by a strong blow , it will increase the consumption of Jingjing's charm, and the greater the strength of the attack, the faster it will be consumed. As long as your attack power is high enough, it can theoretically be defeated at one time, but the required value will be astronomical. At present, I still I don’t know anyone with that much damage output.
The falling stones above our heads were just gravel, and the attack power was not too strong. Jingjing's defense could be perfectly supported, but because of the size of the stones, Jingjing and I both used our wings as shields. So we also temporarily lost the ability to fly. The egg-shaped structure we formed fell straight down the crack like a bomb.
A few minutes later, there was a bang. Jingjing and Hongdou and I fell into a surging river together. The huge impact and our egg-shaped structure turned the sphere we formed from a heavy bomb into a depth bomb. With a sudden blow, we smashed into the river. River bottom. If there wasn't an absolute barrier blocking the outside, the huge impact alone would be enough to kill us. But the situation is okay now. The impact force only consumed the absolute barrier, and then Jingjing and I were separated by the river water. Fortunately, the impact force was not great at this time, and we were not far apart. After I stabilized my body, I immediately started looking around under the water. Due to my dark vision and the short distance, I saw Jingjing at a glance. She was relatively calm. After all, the angels were very strong, so it wouldn't be a big deal if they were submerged in the water. After finding the target, I took her back to the training space with a low hand, then turned around and swam towards Hongdou. Originally, Hongdou was protected by me and Jingjing, but she didn't react when she suddenly fell into the water, and ended up choking on a large amount of water. In addition, he was in a dark environment, and he fell into the water from such a high place and suffered shock and shock. All these factors caused Hongdoubo to completely lose his thinking ability and sense of direction. While struggling desperately to breathe, she kicked her feet and swam to the bottom of the river.
Many people may say that Hongdou is not stupid. Why do you keep going downstream even when you know you are choking on water? In fact, this situation is very normal.
Of course you can know which is up and which is down based on the direction of gravity when standing on the ground, but in water, especially deep water areas with high pressure, the human body's gravity induction will decrease. certainly. If you pay attention you can still tell the difference between up and down, but what if you are nervous? Such as now. Once a person chokes on water, he will basically no longer have the idea of calmness. If he loses his calmness when the gravity sensor is not strong, he will completely lose his sense of direction. In this case, you may feel that you are swimming upward, but in fact you are diving downward. This is the case with Hongdou Boron.
Because I have wings, I can swim much faster in the water than normal people, even though my wings themselves are not designed for swimming in the water. But it conforms to the principles of fluid mechanics after all, and is at least more suitable for water than human hands and feet. I flapped my wings and swam to Hongdou a few times, and then hugged Hongdou's neck from behind. Hongdou immediately waved his hands and struggled violently to hug me. This is the instinctive reaction of ordinary people. However, because I had my neck wrapped around her and I got up from behind, Hongdou couldn't hug me at all. I took out the crystal bubble from my body and pressed it on Hongdou. A crystal bubble immediately appeared and wrapped Hongdou inside. This thing was originally used to trap an enemy when there were more enemies, but now it plays a role in saving people. Although crystal bubbles cannot drain water, they can completely isolate the internal and external environment. After the crystal bubble took effect, I immediately summoned the Phoenix Dragon Space inside the bubble, although the Phoenix Dragon Space cannot be used to hold people. But you can put all the water in the bubble, and then introduce some air into the bubble, so that you can support breathing.
After re-entering the air, Anko immediately began to cough violently. She sprayed a few large mouthfuls of water from her nose and mouth before she felt better, but her face still looked bad. I patted the crystal bubble and shouted inside: "How are you feeling? If you are really uncomfortable, I will ask your magic pet to help you recover?"
Hongdou shook his head first, and then said: "It doesn't matter, it's much better. Huh, I've been afraid of water since I was a child, and I usually don't dare to go to the swimming pool. I didn't expect that I choked on the water once I entered the game. It really scared me to death!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were afraid of water."
"No, we were knocked down. It's not your fault."
In fact, Hongdou was wrong. The current situation does have something to do with me. Although I fell into the water before to protect my teeth from falling rocks, I actually didn't have to fall into the water. In fact, after blocking the rockfall at the beginning, we could open our wings and fly again without falling into the water at all. But when I discovered that there was a river below, I wanted to be lazy and use the water surface to reduce the impact. After all, it would be too strenuous to simply open the wings in the air. It would be easier to dive into the water first and then resurface. Unfortunately, I didn't expect Hongdoubo to be afraid of water.
"By the way, are you scared in this bubble now?"
Anko was stunned for a moment, then shook her head. "Why do you ask?"
"When our net fell, I found a hole at the bottom of the water. There seemed to be light inside. I wanted to go down and have a look. But if you are afraid of water, I will send you up first."
"You, your bubble won't burst?"
"Don't worry, this thing is used to trap the enemy in battle. The average master can't penetrate it in less than ten minutes. A little water will definitely not be a problem."
"Oh, then I'd better go down with you and watch.
Seeing Anko...nodding, I pulled the crystal bubble and started diving, and soon arrived near the entrance of the cave I had discovered before. At first, I didn’t even notice the distance. After getting closer, I realized that the light in the cave was very strong. It was obviously not the brightness that fluorescence could achieve, although it was still not comparable to the sunlight on the ground. But it has already surpassed the brightness of the brightest moon. It can be said that under this brightness, ordinary people's vision has basically no obstacles to movement.
"Zi Ri." Hongxi suddenly stopped me.
"Huh?" "The hole seems too big. Can't this crystal bubble go in?"
Because the Crystal Bubble is a perfect sphere, it is relatively wide. The entrance in front of you is on the river bed. The length is enough, but the width is much different. The entrance is in a long and narrow shape, looking like a ham sausage. It is at least three meters long and less than one meter wide. People can definitely get in, but there is no hope for Crystal Bubble.
I thought about it and took out the helmet from my body and said to Hongdou: "I will remove this bubble in a while. You hold your breath. As soon as the bubble disappears, I will give you the helmet. This helmet can breathe underwater." , you can breathe normally if you wear it
"Okay, but you have to be quick, I'm afraid of choking."
"Don't worry, for at most two seconds, you will definitely be able to withstand it even if you take a big gulp of air."
I counted one, two, and three and retracted the bubble instantly, then put the helmet into Hongdou's hand, and Hongdou immediately put the helmet on his head. She relaxed as soon as she regained her breath. “I didn’t expect this helmet to be so effective!”
"This is an ordinary helmet. Many fully enclosed helmets in the game have diving functions. If you are so afraid of water, you should buy something like water-proof beads to carry with you. Okay, follow me. Let's go in and take a look. what is in the light
Anko nodded and crawled into the cave after me. Although Hongdou couldn't swim, she could reach the walls on both sides of the cave with her hands. So there is no need to swim, just crawl.
We followed the passage deep down, and after sneaking for a few meters, the passage suddenly turned in a direction and began to extend upward. After we continued to crawl for a while, the passage became horizontal, and then began to extend forward in a curved way.
Anko started to worry after crawling behind me for a while. "Ziri, the passage is so long, what if we are trapped in it? We can resurrect on the spot here. If we are really trapped and die in it, our number will be useless!"
"Don't worry, even if you are really buried, I will still have a way to get you out." I'm definitely not talking big. If the tunnel really collapses, my absolute barrier can completely withstand the initial collapse time, and then when the tunnel collapse is over, I can let the pioneers dig out. Even if the pioneers can't dig, I can still use the Xuanwu armor to transform into the holy beast Xuanwu. With the power of Xuanwu, even if the Mount Tai above our heads is overturned, how can we not get out? Taking a step back, even if Xuanwu can't lift the rock above his head, can I transform into Suzaku and burn the rock to create a tunnel to get out of the head office?
Probably because the pile of corpses of the Plague Slender Beasts she saw before had an effect, Hongdou actually believed what I said and continued to crawl forward with me. The brightness in the passage is gradually increasing as we go deeper, and now it has basically reached the intensity of light under street lights at night, let alone action. Reading is enough. After advancing for another ten meters, the passage suddenly began to climb upwards at a large angle, and then continued for more than a hundred meters before the passage suddenly ended. We appeared directly in an open water, and through the water we could already see above our heads. The huge light source above.
"Sun?" Hongdou climbed out of the cave after me and was immediately stunned. With the distance we just traveled, we obviously couldn't reach the surface, but what on earth is that huge light source above our head? Apart from the sun, I really can't think of anything that can Nuclear weapons may be able to produce such huge light and heat, but it is just a flash in the pan, but the big fireball above the head is very stable. It is obviously not the fire caused by the explosion.
"No, that's not the sun. We can't reach the surface. It should be something else." Yi Xunshu said while showing off his different body.
